Nice intro but boring scenes. I only liked the very last scene with Naix.
There are too many Top 10 videos right now...

Nah, they don't think of it as a beta since noone apart from a select few is actually playing it for testing. The true beta is dota 2 test. It is still gonna get massive updates like before, just that beta is not the suitable word to describe the game anymore.

But it was beta when I got into the game in October last year, where there were no more than 200 players online at any one time.

Think he was referring to mortred not becoming 80% transparent anymore.

I like this Mortred than the Warcraft III: DotA's Mortred, She looks more... evil :3

Are there any good Dota 2 fansite you guys can recommend? Especially with stuff like guides, tips, best heroes for beginners etc.
Remco32
Oh, yeah, we had a Dota 2 thread.
I hated LoL and I fucking LOVE Dota 2. Never expected that.

Try the Dota 2 wiki.

http://www.playdota.com/ is still the best site imo, although it is for DotA (1) mainly.
foulcoon
most of the guides on playdota work well for dota 2. meta changes all the time based on what people see in competitive play, but the strategies are essentially the same. I personally like these guides for playing a hero I'm not entirely familiar with:

http://www.playdota.com/guides/alt-tab- ... y-int-hero
http://www.playdota.com/guides/alt-tab- ... y-str-hero
http://www.playdota.com/guides/alt-tab- ... y-agi-hero

Basically you pick the primary stat of the hero you have just picked (or plan to pick), go to that link, and CTRL+ F and type the name of the hero for a quick guide you can have on your second monitor, or to alt tab to.
although the images might not be familiiar, if you take the time to figure out what they are its very helpful. At the very least, the skill builds are usually a good guideline. Of course, skill and item build should vary based on your specific situation, but for starting out these should work fine.

reddit.com/r/dota2 is best

Listen wisely to these men.

Just avoid playdota at all cost.

The hero discussion on reddit is your best bet.

Nah, I quit before this league was created. Though i don't see reason why they are creating another one, unless ODL is only for Oceania

http://blog.dota2.com/2012/06/did-you-see-that-kill/

Valve is fucking nuts right now, in a good way. Dota 2 is gunna be big, its kinda inevitable at this point. Valve is on the fucking BALL with doing shit right. DHS12 had ~70k on stream (even though a lot prob SC2 waiting for finals) while the game is in "beta", which is HUGE. Games like SC2 and LoL didn't get this numbers until months after their release (a year or 2 for LoL to be honest).

Valve knows how big this game can be as an eSport and they're doing everything in their power to bring in viewers and sponsors. With the whole "Whenever you purchase a tournament, we’ll share the money you spend with the organizers of the tournament." sponsors are going to want to support dota 2.

Also, the team function is fucking awesome. Team banners and Logos INGAME, as well as team history stat tracking. AWESOME.

Gah I can't wait for this shit to take place. I hate hating on LoL, but I can't stop laughing at how much Valve is 1uping them in everything. Won't be surprised if you see RIOT take some of these ideas.
Magicphoenix
smile'd @ yhyhyhhh, totally true :)
Love it how much effort VALVE puts into DOTA 2 and ofc how big it'll come out eventually, once it's out of the Beta stage :D
Nharox
I really like the way Valve is going. And I'm surprised I like this game, HoN and LoL couldn't catch my interest. Dota 2 is just well done and polished, especially the art style and the sound effects. :)

Now I want a Cave Johnson Pack :)

Wow, Rubick on DotA 2, I didn't expect him very soon. Wow.

this thread needs to surpass the LoL thread.

This thread has been better than that one since day 1. That thread turned terrible way long ago.
Gabi
The LoL thread was good the first few pages, then it started filling up with baddies trying to convince their shit build and shit hero were the best and posting shitty stats pictures everytime they win a game, and the same shit is kind of happening to this thread. shit.
Magicphoenix
#1 We never discussed any builds on heroes :D
#2 Same with which heroes were the best, ok - somewhere in the middle over 1-2 pages but not all the time
#3 The only one doing that is iMercurial and kinda everyone ignores it :)

Anybody buying The Defense/The International II Ticket?
I think I'll have a go at The Defense, not like I dislike TobiWan's commentary but I'd rather analyze on detailed information and playstyle on single players and heroes which you can't see on live stream. It's also not all too expensive, can't go to Seattle though, <- because of that itself and it's just too expensive in total lol
Mercurial
Anyway wants to discuss about bulds on heroes or something?

I'll prob buy one this weekend. If not to watch, just to support. 5 dollars isn't that much. Will also be nice to test the DOTATV a bit.

Link to Gigabyte DotaMasters finals. The system is 3 sets of Best of 3. Winning 1 Bo3 = 1 Set, whoever wins 2 Sets wins

Both teams are one of my favorites so I don't root for 1 team in particular and only hope for nice games ;)
