Good point, CM is super squishy and dies a lot. Her skillset and tools are very straight forward though, and you help your team just by skilling up her aura.Remco32 wrote:

Game devs are now working on pairing leavers with other leavers and repeated offenders (reports) with their own type etc.
I guess waiting is the best option here

i don't think i can complain much because i play LoL and community wise i'm kind of used to the whole whining and flaming but i find this last match i had really interesting..as soon this guy from my team - BOT lane died (causes: Obviously he was to greedy and ran for the kill but instead he got shot by turret and etc's) he did rq the game we're @ around 5 / 8 minutes along with his pre friend, flamed the hell out of everyone including me since i was @ bot lane as-well. i'm having the hell time trying to pick up to this game people seem to put a lot of pressure on the younger people like me,i really do want to play this moba but i'm just so clueless about so many things and the people i get Q with seem to be just major assholes anyways does anyone have a few tips on which hero's to play or..something? i did look up for a few videos but i think different opinions are nice too!,sorry if i came out of nowhere asking for such thing
My tip is to mute them and if possible report. There isn't really much helping I'm afraid
Or you just play with friends 
"Get good" is wtf? Remco? So they're supposed to get to 5k MMR in <1 year so they can finally get out of "their own skill level" hell? I'm playing on 5k+ and there's still flamers everywhere, it's just a russian thing.Remco32 wrote:

Personally, I'd start off on heroes like crystal maiden or lion, and support the more experienced players until you can get a good feel for the game. You can also queue up with coaches in this game which is extremely helpful, as they are able to draw on your screen, ping your UI and talk directly to you while you play, great learning tool for new players, feel free to add me if you'd like to try that.
As for the community, yeah, it can be volatile. Your best bet is to just ignore the ragers, and take the productive criticism/advice that nicer players give (they do exist!).

Essentially Miyu, to join a match with a coach all you have to do is invite whomever you want coaching you, into your party and queue up with them set as a coach (little check box above the party group icons).Miyu wrote:

Yes, her ulti deals massive damage, but you are slow and have no healthpool so you die without much trouble. And since a new player will be out of position all the time you will probably feed a lot.
He meant leavers, not flamers. Those will stop being in your bracket if you get >2000MMR or so.Magicphoenix wrote:

Play easy heroes such as Sven, Juggernaut, Dragon Knight, Death Prophet. Once you get the hang of DotA, you can play semi-hard heroes such as Phantom Assasin, Terrorblade, and many others. Just, please, dont play Invoker. Just dontMiyu wrote:

Skilled Pinoy Players that know's what they're doing (like me, and probably Nav) plays in EU servers. Let me tell you this as a 3k mmr player, russians are a pain in the ass to carry
average skill of pinoys are very low but 2 pinoys are leading at SEA solo MMR rankings with 6.5k mmr
haven't played with russians yet so i cant tell

a good teammate have a best chance to win
all about your teammate and how they win the game not the "ROLE" and "SUPPORT/CARRY/GANKER/SOLO MID.
example of IG they play 3 agi 2 int in tournament but they still win because they make a good team
Why Burning GPM is always 900++ ?
Because A good support and a good teammate make him fat
so if want to win the game just make a good teammate
i am sure you will win even in solo ranked

Overestimating. Maybe I'm decent but I'm still new to Dota 2 (not dota 1). I can't even play ranked yet so I don't know if this will mean anything later. Not to mention I suck at other heroesSonatora wrote:

7 wins out of 8
ed: my most recent WK matches (i started all of them support)
I can write a few tips to those who are interested in some. Basically for pubs, you need to figure out which hero is the most broken in each patch and then pick them and bring them to perfection. Last patch it was Treant, Terrorblade, Ember Spirit, Phoenix.
This time, in my opinion, it's Zeus and Wraith King.
Zeus is the most damaging output hero in the game and WK has a way too ridiculous stun. Both work in almost all line ups.
Note that this is of course for full tryhard players only (like me) lol

Zeus guide incoming:
SPOILER
For Zeus u want to start with 2 tangoes and preferably 2 shared tangoes (1 is fine too), otherwise, you can buy a tango yourself or just skip it if you're against a hero that's unable to harass you hardcore lv1. The reason for this is, your attack animation + dmg is shit, so you need to last hit with arc lightning -> fast bottle.
Skill build is always the same, Arc -> Bolt -> Bolt -> Aura, max bolt => max aura => max arc. Ofc max ulti whenever possible.
Unless you get a really good rune like Haste/Invis AND see an incredibly good chance to kill a hero on another lane, farm until you're level 7, at the very least. That's right, you can already kill your enemy solo mid if you're lv4 or 5, but your explosive damage starts when you get that maxed bolt + ult combo on the enemy. After that, get TPs & Smokes, kill heroes. It's incredibly easy as fuck to kill heroes with Zeus because u do 2much fkin' dmg.
The Item build is pretty straightforward as well, with few variables. Just buy Bottle first -> into Magic Stick/Wand -> Arcane Boots -> Dagger/Force Staff -> Aghs -> Refresher.
The reason you need Dagger (I prefer it over Force Staff) is because you have 0 escape, close to 0 move speed and not initiate. With 0 mobility, there is nothing to kill. Unless you're sure your team can always be there with initiates (Clockwerk, Sandking, Centaur, etc.), you'd better buy one. Otherwise, buy a Dagger after you bought Aghs, 'coz it's still strong as fuck.
Of course, you can build situational stuff as well. If there's a DOOM & Lion, you might want to go Linken's (after Aghs-Refresher), if there's a PA or Slark, get yourself an Ethereal Blade.
The most important thing to note about the Skill Build is always go Aghs-Refresher. It is NEVER bad. You have enough mana and it just deals a way too fkin big of a shitton of damage. You might want to sneak in a Veil after Aghs before going Refresher - but that is your bread and butter:
R - Bolt - Refresher - R - Bolt. Stuff is killed. Nuff said. (If enemy's got BKB, well, kill the other 4 out of 5 heroes in the team)

I'd like some pointers on WK support.
Wraith King tips
SPOILER
With Wraith King...basically you get lv3 on stun. Then buy smokes and go roam and kill people. Always keep a tp for counterganking or if you see a good opportunity for a sneak-in kill (i.e. your lane is being pushed in but u can tp so the enemyl doesn't have vision on your -> wraparound).
He is most effective in a dual lane scenario.
Skill Build: Stun -> Stats -> Stun -> Stats -> max stun, -> 1 point into aura -> max crit. Ult whenever possible.
Item Build: Courier/Wards, Salve, Tangoes, 1 Clarity, 1 Branch, 1 Smoke. If other support buys both cour/ward -> Gauntlet of Strength.
Then Boots -> (Stick ->) Urn -> Treads -> Wand -> (Dagger/Blade Mail ->) Armlet -> Stuff.
I prefer to only get Stick when it's really worth it and the enemies that you gank are likely to use a lot of spells because your Urn is essential and you want it ASAP.
Both Dagger and Blade Mail can be skipped if you don't feel the need to buy them. But Dagger is always awesome so u can just get it whenever. If your team has good enough initiate you don't need it though.
If you go roaming, don't fret if you have to stand around a cliff for half a/one minute. Eventually, the timing will come. When you do go in, ping the hero you want to gang a thousand times. If you go onto a lane to try and gang somebody, always say "omw bot/mid/top, killing X/Y". Most don't have that much map awareness to be honest.
Sorry this looks kind of underwhelming lol, but it's just the general plan what I do to win the games lol. To get lv3, (sometimes you can just go gang with lv1 or 2 as well. Your stun is extremly strong since it has a set stun duration and a 2 sec slow after that) just stack camp or leech some exp from the lane. If you are close to Boots (assist gold, farmed the stack, whatever), just steal 1-2 last hits from your carry and tell him to go fuck himself, you want those boots (they're still no necessity though, your base move speed is decent. But they can be extremly good ofc).
As a general tip if you want to improve - watch your own replays and see objectively where you've gone wrong. Point out important mistakes and the general mistakes you've done and try to better them in the next matches. Try to play with the least mistakes as possible rather than focus on killing stuff/big plays/the feel-good-shit.

If it isn't asking too much, could you make an ingame build for these (Zeus and WK)? You can easily convert what you've typed out here in a build.
Gonna try WK support in a bot match for giggles, thanks for the tips!

Heh, funny we are talking about Zeus. I can support Magic fully on what he says. I haven't lost a match on Zeus for almost 2 months now.
I wouldn't be surprised if they nerf him into oblivion after ti4.

I wouldn't say he needs a rework, he just isn't a top tier pick currently. The only hero that needs a complete revamp imo is Broodmother.
Broodmother and Huskar are the two most useless heroes at the moment (imo).
Broodmother feeds 200 gold so easily to the enemy, the only thing you can do with your spiders is trying to farm the jungle and even then you risk to lose them. And what do you contribute to your team besides your spider push? Yes, you can get solo kills as soon as you get an orchid but in team fights Brood just sucks.
And Huskar needs to be low hp to actually do something.

I just find that Broodmother off web is too harmful. What I mean by this is if you're fighting a BM, she could have all the farm in the world and every item she could want, and as soon as you lure her off her webs, she just slooooowwwlly chases heroes and spits a weak single target nuke.Tshemmp wrote:

I agree about her slings being way more harm than good too, even in early game phase.
if Huskar i think it depends with the enemy and the player too , if he get many kills it'll be hard to fight him late but if he can't farm and kills he'll easy
The only time Huskar is a threat late game is if the enemy team has no hard carry and only magic damage. If such a situation occurs you're either playing AR or against a bunch of bad drafters =p. Pretty much any carry will outshine Huskar late game.gretay wrote:

Also, your logic of a hero getting many kills = harder to deal with vs hero getting no kills = easy to beat applies to pretty much any of them xD.
The problem with huskar is, even with low damage, his attack speed is monstrous. He can semi-tank late game and still dominate with his W and E. Combine it with his R and he's unstoppable at late gameSoulclenz wrote:

He is not precisely unstoppable though.Sonatora wrote:

Yes, huskar have ridiculous attack speen and tanky in late game, but it doesn't mean he don't have any weakness.
IMO this is huskar weakness:
1. His burning spear is not hurt at all @ late game
2. His passive only reduce magical damage, it means huskar is vulnurable with physical damage and pure damage. Like gretay wrote, almost all carry will outshine him @ late game.
3. He maybe tanky, but he can outshine a pure tanker because his R need no little amount of HP. It makes huskar less tanky.
4. He is useless when fight the enemy with bkb (linken too though). A smart enemy team will have a lot bkb and linken in them.
5. He really depend on skill to ganking and team fight, it means Silence, Hex, Soul burn, and all sort of disable is fatal for him.
A quick Heavens Halberd + Stunlocks can turn a monstrous ultra-fed huskar into a useless one. That's what I do everytime, lolkagaminelenz wrote:

found huskar? maybe we can trust necro's scythe and lifestealer :3
for Life Stealer maybe right but umm i dont recommend Necro's scythe my friend said it's magic (i never use necro)Sven- wrote:

maybe for huskar you need Clinkz , i've seen huskar feed because of Clinkz from the early game
or Sven + Bkb - Huskar = A Pancake
i once laned huskar with dazzle and treant at bottom lane. we're dire, so it was an aggressive trilane. they were against apparition, doom and mirana
he snowballed hard because they cant do anything to him earlygame
what makes him strong early game is that burning spear
it stacks too

the spider bounty increase and base damage nerf really killed broodmotherTshemmp wrote:
Broodmother and Huskar are the two most useless heroes at the moment (imo).
Broodmother feeds 200 gold so easily to the enemy, the only thing you can do with your spiders is trying to farm the jungle and even then you risk to lose them. And what do you contribute to your team besides your spider push? Yes, you can get solo kills as soon as you get an orchid but in team fights Brood just sucks.
And Huskar needs to be low hp to actually do something.
Huskar's Burning spear can kill many heroes at the early game , for the brood i think if a pro plays him he is a real killer ~_~
But It's pretty rare to see a pro play brood as a full-killer
Usually, I see brood become hard-pusher and semi-killer. They focus on pushing and only kill if it really necessary (ex. team war)

We've already gone over why Huskar and Brood aren't that great.
On another note, I seriously can't believe we might hit the 10m mark for the prize pool at Ti4, unreal.

yeah i think so
but even huskar has magic ressistance and necro's scythe use a magic...but necro's damage depends on how much hp enemy are lost...not like another
magical skill like zeus,necro can scythe huskar's ass below 50% on huskar itself(with aghanim) :3

The answer is:
No, you can't kill huskar with below 50%.
With bkb on, huskar can kill necro only with 5 second (if the huskar play right from early ofc)
Ah, btw, no offense, and not to act smart, I just need to show a prove because it's against my principle to talk without proof (except lying ofc)
Calculation (CMIIW):
Necro SS + aghanim = 1,2 / HP loss
default magical resistance (all heroes) = 25%
Huskar 3rd skill resistance (lvl.4 @ 44% HP) = 56%, he have 7% for 7% each health missing
total magical resistances = 81%
Usually Huskar have 3000 or more, but let's take if he have 2500 HP (it to make calculation easier)
44% of 2500 = 1100 (He now have 1100 HP now)
Necro SS (Consider his damage type is pure) = 1,2 x (2500-1100) = 1680
But huskar have 81% resistance, so he can block = 1360.8 ==> 1361
You need huskar HP to kill him = 1680 - 1361 = 319
And the lower his HP his magic resist is better :3
It's impossible to make huskar HP lower from 44% without you die 1st. The smart user will target necro 1st while his bkb active
Necro's SS type is magical, so it still reduced by magical resistance.
His SS maybe different from Zeus, but the different is only in damage calculation. While zeus have fixed constanta, Necro not.
That is why gretay not recommend to use necro to counter huskar. Not only ineffective, but also a suicide.
NB: using necro to counter huskar is effective, when huskar still not nerfed though

i see XD thank you for the information
so we must use pyshical or pure damage to counter huskar? @.@ or should we use doom or omni's ulti?
i see XD thank you for the informationDoom is the best hero to counter all things like : Weaver, Puck,ETC
so we must use pyshical or pure damage to counter huskar? @.@ or should we use doom or omni's ulti?
so you counter huskar with Doom Oh My Doom i hate him ~_~ just doom a skiller or carry hero then your friend will kill them
Best comeback ever. Check from 39:00 until the end.

I could be wrong but I think they changed him to Wraith King due to copyright issues, so I don't think we'll ever see Skeleton King in game again =(.Sven- wrote:

I'm really excited for ESL One next week though. Luckily it's free to watch ingame, but I think most teams won't be showing everything until the TI4.

b) price pool has nothing to do with the stadium

How come ESL will be free to watch in-client? I can't think of any (big) tournament that allows that for free.
