The only map change I don't like is rosh being so far away. In the river it felt easier to contest if you didn't smoke in or push lanes to cause a distraction, but now the map is so huge that it seems easier to sneak into rosh and harder to get there to do anything about it even if you know they're there

Can Techies still instantly kill the Tormentor with a bunch of mines ahead of time and just have like, OD or SD banish him a second before it spawns in to dodge the damage reflect?

Maybe I'm using it wrong or something but it feels like Techies aghs hardly does anything. It just seems to have a bunch of caveats that make it easy to play around.

It is usually bad I think. It's really good for one situation and that's defending high ground where the enemy team gets funneled into ramps makes it far likelier to trigger. Plus protecting your mines is actually nice for hg defense. Out in the wider map the long cast time, and tiny cast & activation range make it extremely difficult to use in any impactful way. If it does trigger it can be pretty powerful, though.

I single handedly won a team fight around that jungle camp on the water at the bottom of the map. Popped my minefield sign down mid fight, and because of the weird pathing the enemies had to take they all blew themselves up real quick. It's pretty much compeletely unreliable as a source of damage, but it has a tonne of potential. It's a good 4th/5th item on techies imo. He's universal so the stats are nice too. I start 6 tangoes and 4 branches, and just bully the enemies in lane.

You can reliably ban Lich every game by picking him in the first phase currently, it's kinda funny

Warlock seems pretty good this patch. New upheaval makes you way less ultimate reliant and the shard makes it do quite a bit of extra damage. Ive just been going arcanes > midas > greaves > locket my last 15 games and won 13 of them. If you get the midas it helps you get to the broken aoe talent a lot faster and by then you just have 1200ish group healing every minute with amped greaves. Its a pretty chill build.

I’m really enjoying AA this patch. Think I’ve got about 75% wr with him. Just such an arsehole to lane against. Managed to snipe two cores who went Armlet against me with my ult. We had a bloodseeker who could give me vision.

Feels like I'm buying Pavise like every support game just because the mana regen is so good for the cost, this is gonna become a bad habit after they adjust it

Last night, I last picked mid Anti Mage to counter an enemy pos 1 Medusa. I suck at AM, especially mid against Shadow Fiend, but that doesn't matter. I picked up Aghs Scepter along with Octarine Core, and spammed illusions on Medusa. It's so satisfying to pop a farmed carry so easily, bonus points when her allies are nearby.

ironically, pos1 AM is pretty bad against medusa because of the dusa butterfly/daedalus timing, but AM pos3 (and pos2 if the lane is playable) both gently caress her up because AM can ignore bfury and get vanguard/diffu/manta

Another good counter to Medusa is Elder Titan. Burning through her mana won't wake her up while she's under ET's stomp.

small patch, mostly bug fixes, butquote:Watchers are now colored based on whether they are controlled by your team (matching minimap coloration), rather than whether they are controlled by Radiant and Dire.

They need to put a bigass popup that you have to acknowledge on the splash screen for that though because now Dire players are just walking past enemy watchers left and right

Last night, I had to build some role queue tokens, and got pos 4. So I decided to pick Medusa support as it's better to be the problem rather than to deal with the problem. It's pretty funny to top my team's damage as a support with aghs and phylactery. I quickly learned that I don't need tangos so I handed them off to my offlane. I kind of felt like I was the offlane hero as I was tanking towers during pushes. A+ would farm role queue tokens with Medusa again. Tip to any carry laning against a support Mesua: don't stand next to your ranged creep, you're giving free mana away. Nfcknblvbl fucked around with this message at 14:27 on May 31, 2023 |

I assume you just prioritize Mystic Snake then Mana Shield? I've never played it, and don't think I saw it in whatever the most recent Major was that just recently wrapped up. I was really getting into playing Medusa just before the last letter patch of 7.32 and then she got nerfed and I haven't played her since.

Now that Aether Lens doesn't upgrade into Octarine any more, I think it should be able to combine into Force Staff: A caster's Hurricane Pike.

Like it shoves them away and increases your Cast Range? ... Next Targeted Spell within X seconds automatically targets them?

I'd just be happy if it just has the push part of Pike. Supports need slots for dust, man.

An Aether Lens active that’s a ground-targeted allied-visible ~300radius scan effect with like 1000 range would loving own. Persistent for ~3seconds, doesn’t give vision, cooldown something like 60s.

Dust wasn't correctly dealing damage or slowing unless you had another dust still in your inventory (i.e. you had two or more charges of dust) until this patch, so hopefully that will make playing against either Riki/BH/Clinkz feel a little less oppressive. It's been awhile since all three of them felt like viable heroes at once.

It's pretty funny to top my team's damage as a support with aghs and phylactery. Yesterday I played pos 4 techies, against a pos 1 slark, pos 5 Medusa lane. I can't remember what hero my offlaner was though. I proceeded to kill slark over and over once i hit level 2, and the medusa couldn't do anything about it. The Medusa also kept leaving lane to make stacks for herself, which I farmed with mines then blocked. I finished the game with the highest net worth and 2nd highest hero damage. Medusa support owns.

It's pretty funny to top my team's damage as a support with aghs and phylactery. Yea it's my favorite right now, if am is banned it's an auto-pick. Pos 4 I go for more dmg w/ phylactory and scepter + shard, and skill stats instead of split shot. You can bully a lot of melee champs out of the lane w/ snake. If I'm pos 5 I'll go full support and rush mana boots into pavise, force staff, greaves, pipe, etc. Though I tend to mix and match these starts depending on matchups, sometimes I get greaves and force staff every game. Also every now and then your off lane mate gets dumpstered while you dominate, in these cases I DO get split shot and go for more teamfight dmg like gleipnir. It's fun for myriad reasons - often the other support will subconsciously give you farm priority b/c dusa has been a carry since forever; you get to level stats instead of a skill like it's Dota 1, lots of fun early game mana items to use like falcon blade, urn, euls; the enemy team often over-estimates your role and tries to counter you to their detriment like a sven buying diffusal; sometimes it triggers your teammates and they get to feel bad when you play well. Dusa support is subversive and good. Just looked it up and I'm 17-10 since the patch. Miss Lonelyhearts fucked around with this message at 02:58 on Jun 1, 2023 |

I installed SMITE because a friend plays and I remembered having a decent enough time with it a decade ago. I've often wished you could surrender in DOTA but after 2 days in Smite I've changed my mind. People are so eager to give up the second something goes wrong, and as a new player it feels so much harder to learn the game when everyone wants to give up after 10 minutes.

Sab669 posted:I installed SMITE because a friend plays and I remembered having a decent enough time with it a decade ago. yeah HON had a surrender, and then people started unironically pressing it if they got firstblooded, so they moved it so you could only surrender after 15 minutes, so from then on at 15 minutes exactly whichever team was losing would instantly cast a vote to surrender. it's a terrible idea- as frustrating as it is playing to the whistle is when youre a long way behind its better than people vote kicking people who won't surrender then surrendering if it looks like a hard game e; i literally just finished a dota game where we had a loving disasterous laning phase and I just had to keep going "it's fine, we've got late" every time someone died because people were losing their poo poo. then i hit that magical 20 timing on meurta and we smash the next teamfight and boom- everyones happy again NtotheTC fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Jun 2, 2023 |

When I flirted briefly with league last year the most frustrating thing was going like 15-0-20 on the adc caitlyn and having the game end early before I could really enjoy it. You almost felt punished for owning By contrast the 30 minute gg in dotes is super rare

Not screen capping my report, but my win rate was pretty awful this season. Low 40s. I blame all the riki supports. Playing pos 4 was my only winrate over 50% (60~%) I have 60 role queue tokens, gonna spam pos4 for a bit.
