    If I go support, it's always the first thing I get, but I'll choose not to get one if I'm a carry and no one else buys one.

    So in my first game when I got home I had a guy say he hopes my mother dies of cancer and he said he gave her HIV? Wonderful

    That just sums up the whole eiletest bull**** that surrounds dota 2. It's a pity that people that are new to this have to feel vilified that they aren't experts straight away.

    That's part of the reason why i've never gotten into this or LoL. It pretty much seems like the worst community in any game at the moment.

    Cool. You use them to stamp into an item I bought for 8 euro, the compendium. http://www.dota2.com/international/compendium/
    They just upgrade my courier, problem is you need fecking like 85 different ones and I have like 5.

    Add TarAldarion on steam :)

    Pretty much, it wasn't bad at the start, and you could actually play the game as a new person without being abused, but it's gone back to **** now.

    currently in a game with my mate and 3 of Brazils finest.


    they are really good at dota. I swear.

    interesting article on toxoplasmosis in brazil. apparantly it makes them more aggressive and agitated and more than half the country has it :s

    Anyone want to start a team/play? I play with a friend but we'd like to have a regular 5 so we don't get owned by full parties.

    :O

    :O :O

    I had Dota2 downloaded a few weeks back, played a tiny tiny bit.

    Had it on a SSD but had to merge my second steam folder back with the original and now it tells me i'm 33k in line to download it.

    Weird. I had it in my library from way back, but never installed it or played it and it just let me download it right away the other day.

    If you had it beofre you can get in no problem, it's for new people that never had beta access that there is a queue!


    Still on the lookout for more cards. Did they have to make us collect so many -_-

    So is your timing of Alchemist stuns.

    Abaddon is going to be an unreal hero in DOTA2 I think. Will he be in CM for the International I wonder?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,098 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    I know, some reward for getting the compendium, here have a reward that you have to earn by playing hundreds of games.
    Everybody attacks abaddon when he ultis -_- Nah think they have frozen the hero pool.

    Like a certain weaver yesterday.... *cough*

    I am up for joining a team. Play much LoL but very new to Dota2 and would rather have someone to play with than the usual tardation that is the community. (Coming from 2 years of LoL)


  • Site Banned Posts: 2,094 ✭✭✭BMMachine


    for best chances of winning solo btw - pick weaver or nightstalker. they are heroes that require organisation to beat and can do a lot of work

    Nah I stopped when i saw it but did so much damage with my items and 2x attack passive that it was pretty lame. :( Not great at seeing it yet, but there is some noise that plays that I must look out for. I would stop and people kept pounding on him grr

    Think you needed a bkb instead of a 5.3k do nothing item, we needed a bit more damage early on methinks, oh well ;)

    Abbadon + blademail + borrowed time = hilarity.

    Abbadon is ridiculous. Lots of players playing him so bad it's laughable.
