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

http://www.playdota.com/ is still the best site imo, although it is for DotA (1) mainly.Nharox wrote:

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.

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
Where did that image come from?
Also, good luck on your Celldweller mapping project, osu! needs more non-weeaboo crap and some industrial music would be great.

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.

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

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.

This thread has been better than that one since day 1. That thread turned terrible way long ago.
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.
#1 We never discussed any builds on heroes
#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

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.Magicphoenix wrote:

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

Does anyone have a key left for Larto? We need to get him away from LoL.
I really doubt they're even handing out invites at this point, as they just released them for sale for 40 bucks. They must have at least drastically decreased the amount of people they invite.
Just tell Larto to enter every Dota 2 thing on steam gifts until he wins lol

'Coz of the anti-mage replicate when Rubick blinks or why?

Cause its a delay less (like Blink dagger) blink on a 5 sec (or w/e) cooldown. When AM blinks, there is a tad bit of delay before he goes. He kinda twist and spins. Its instant for rubick, like Blink dagger.Magicphoenix wrote:

That is indeed OP and fortunately got fixed on Nature's Prophet, SF & Sniper, though it was pretty amusing when I played as Rubick against them
Most imbalanced thing this patch is that Wisp's ultimate comes without a ping or warning on the minimap, when I stared on the minimap 'coz of Wisp and was sure nothing was there - suddenly beastmaster & Io crawling up my ass from behind

furion/sniper/sf has a casting time which is different from animation swing. Anti-mage only has an animation swing. Rubick has no animation swing, so his stolen spells becomes instant.
This also applies to Powershot, right?Gabi wrote:

Yes, powershot has a 1 second Casting time.
On that topic, Powershot on Rubick is fucking hilarious.
Everything on Rubick is fucking hilarous, leap is especially funny f or me
