I turned voice volume to mute and unbound ptt like 9 years ago and never looked back. I'm sure there's a bunch of screaming assholes in some of my games yet I am blissfully unaware of them.

So when you hover over someone's hero during picks with Dota plus, what do the numbers actually mean? It definitely doesn't seem to be the player's winrate with that hero. It said 48% or something for our safelane Pudge and I was inwardly groaning but then the versus screen said he's 15-3 with Pudge which his 30 kills definitely backed up.

I believe the percentage is win rate with your hero .

Your hero + pudge win rate? I thought it was win rate of pudge on my team in general but it's never really made sense that way numbers wise

I assumed it was win rates given the current team comps at the current bracket.

How do you get 50 games in with Silencer and still only Level 1 on the hero? I suspect it is a smurf and maybe they just threw the game to keep their MMR where they want it maybe? Like almost 10:1 on your W:L doesn't sound legit...

Can't you get up to Level 5 even without dota+?

Yea it caps at level 5 without the subscription. Seems like it’d be difficult to get 49 wins on any hero without gaining a level, you get points just for winning even if you ignore the hero challenge. Simply playing a game gets you 50xp and a win is another 50xp. So that’s 4950xp right there, which should get you to level 9, or 5 if no subscription. Maybe the 49 wins were from before that was added to the game?

Sounds like it'd dumpster her in higher skill games where people really know how to use Purge abilities, and not do anything in lower tier games.

Recently came back to the game after like four years without playing (and before that, played near-daily since 2009). Did my rankings, got placed in archon, have zero motivation to play pubs solo. Maybe I'm expecting too much but I don't think you should be able to get 10,000 behaviour score if you absolutely refuse to communicate with your team. Every time I queue into a game, it's dead silence except for pings. Any map movements are impossible to coordinate. It's like people queue into the game already past the point of giving a poo poo whether they win or lose and just want to click creeps. I think I just need a fuckin stack to play with

People who have no interest mentioning their bkb is almost done, mangos are on the courier, or their ulti is almost up make the game hard. I can barely play my hero and keep up with enemy items and timings. The least people could do is talk.

I played my first game since 2013 the other day. This game has changed a lot, but the other team did ask us to report their NP so some things stay the same.

Oh I thought he meant they dropped the skin in 2016, which in retrospect is probably before the arcana release. my bad. I do miss the old at a glance philosophy, but admittedly the cosmetics were getting kinda samey. But back then you would get skins after games which I also miss.

Frankly, it's not just about the cosmetics — when they moved the client over to 7.00 and redid the HUD, something else shifted within the game and how it's presented. I can't precisely put my finger on everything that changed, but it's extremely noticeable if you watch a replay from back in the day. There's this mod that lets you play a 2014 build of the game, before Dota 2 Reborn dropped; the changes are extremely visible on there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLCFU3uayps also, not a he

There were a lot of graphical changes with modeling and the engine. Also yeah my bad. Should've they'd if anything. Good to meet you, Ms. Enjoyer.
