DOTA 2

    give the game a try, I bet you that you'll be interested afterwards for me the perception changed from: no interest at all to "how the f did they go from FPS games to RTS and managed to create this awesomeness". given - it's more or less just a copy of the leg work icefrog did on the warcraft map but it feels like a really solid game and with the "Valve spin" to it there's a lot of polishing on it already and I guess they'll keep polishing it further and further. It's also probably the most addictive game Valve has done so far.

    sb just came this patch, so thats probably why he's chosen every game. (He was my favourite hero from Dota, I literally played him 90% of the matches back then so I'm super happy to see him).

    I've only seen ns in two games, the first one he owned and the second one he was shit. I havent seen tide in any games this far, and bh is spotted in maybe 50% of the games.

    But then again, I usually only play with friends...

    Yeah I'm just playing alone, seems everyone's just picking their favorite carry.

    It's a shame that you're in Canada, otherwise you could play with us Europeans and have the honor of letting me lose the game for you.

    "The Steam app comes from many direct requests from our customers," said Gabe Newell, co-founder and president of Valve.

    I'm playing at least a game a day, add me if you want my steam is [email protected]

    I don't always bother with voice chat, but I have my mic handy should I want to

    Suppose it would be fair to note I play on USEast, not sure how my ping would be on europe or w/e.

    got you both. I'm fine with playing on US EAST. Just have to be careful with what I pick. Hooking with pudge is close to impossible with 100ms

    aim for where they are going, not where they are. there's a lot of small techs you can do with skillshots, which is what makes them beautiful mechanics

    yeah I know hehe. But I've noticed that in games with low ping I hit almost every hook, whereas with a small delay I fail pudge so hard.

    in general i really love these kinds of games for the pure aspect of mind games that is so prevalent. i guess it's also why i started playing fighting games again. your opponents will always give off small clues to what they're about to do next. sometimes they're easy to read, and sometimes they're very hard, but the clues are there at all times. especially when it comes to using the hook properly, there are a lot of situations to capitalize on if you know how your opponent will react to what you're about to do. one of my favorites is using hook right as they're lasthitting creeps, because their focus is NOT on the hook by then (they think they're covered). and once the focus is gone from you, you're "invisible" to them. sun tzu is all up in this bitch

    haha yeah that one is a classic. Also works great with mirana's arrow. Once they last hit that last creep in a creep wave the arrow is already in air and nails them right after.
