Tensei Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Just as a heads up, the Eastern qualifier for the second International is happening today, but the twist is that it's entirely viewable ingame through Dota TV, and it even has the audio channel feature implemented so you can pick a caster to listen to while controlling the camera yourself.

Tensei Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 The one hero that gets to steal and copy almost every spell in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tensei Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Lanaya, ready to go all Dragonball Z on peoples asses. Also, Disruptor, Wisp, Luna and Undying have been added in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I like Disruptor quite a bit. Wisp and Undying are pretty fun too. Luna is...well, Luna. Press R to win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Derrit Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 At last I had invitation! Played. as Rubick. Dota 2.... sucks:cry:I better get back to first one. it's literally the exact same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Jesus fuck Undying is fun now that he's been fixed. I got ganked by a Lion, Alchemist and Lanaya at the same time, my lane buddy Rubick died almost instantly, but somehow I managed to not only survive (after eating a Lion ult) but also grab two kills. I just kept waddling around juking their stuns, draining their strength while an ever increasing army of zombies was spawning on top of them.

Dhsu Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Haha, nice...jukings still one of those skills I haven't quite gotten down. What exactly did they fix though? Was it just the health scaling thing? Doesn't seem like a few HP would be a huge deal when playing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 There was some bug with Decay that caused it to actually heal enemies over time because of the strength gain at the end of the duration, and the zombies from the tombstone didn't properly enrage when enemies got below a certain health threshold. Thanks for the summer sale gift by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 You're welcome! Too bad we don't get carnival tickets this year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 LOL, I'm just now noticing the hover text in the blog pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Nyx Assassin, Keeper of the Light, and Visage are out. Those are apparently the last heroes to be released before the International though, so no new heroes until September, ah well. There's also this: Edited July 27, 2012 by Tensei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 KotL reminds me of Nymphora in terms of skillset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tensei Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 The last day of The International is about to start. 1 Million $ on the line, Defending champions Na'Vi vs LGD. http://www.dota2.com/international/mainevent/watch/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Anyone still not have an invite? Valve just sent out a bunch for Diretide (which is a pretty hilarious game mode btw). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 I played some bot games with Nabeel and I feel like I finally know what's going on in this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unstable Hamster Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hey I've been playing DOTA 2 lately, I got my invite a while back and now I'm just starting to pick it up. I usually play bot games, I'm not super competitive, but playing diretide has been a blast. If anyone would have a noob-ish person on their team while playing just add me, my steam ID is Unstable Hamster Edit: Just remembered I had a question, where would be a good spot to move the quick key's for the item slots?

Dhsu Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I haven't really found an ideal config yet...1-6 work nicely if you don't play heroes with pets, otherwise I stick with z,x,c and don't buy more than 3 activatable items (although I try not to do that anyway ). I think the Heroes of Newerth default is Alt+Q/W/E/A/S/D or something but I don't remember if Dota 2 allows key combos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I use alt+QWEASD for items which results in a lot of inadvertent pinging when I'm trying to eat a tree (but I'm way too used to it from HoN to change). Other than that I still have like 2 extra invites for anyone interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I find that the best quick keys for items for me are Tab, F and spacebar, this allows you to keep your hands right around qwer while still having a few items nearby for quick activation. If you have a mouse with more than three buttons, you can assign items to them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObliviousOne Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 So valve has seen fit to give me 6 free keys who ever wants one pm me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabeel Ansari Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I use alt+QWEASD for items which results in a lot of inadvertent pinging when I'm trying to eat a tree (but I'm way too used to it from HoN to change). Other than that I still have like 2 extra invites for anyone interested. Same. I also hate you can't switch the minimap position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Can't count the number of times I've tried to run away and clicked on the mini-map instead. ;_; You can disable mini-map click (I think) but that's almost even more annoying. Oh well. So um...does anyone have red essences to spare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
