Geight posted:Arcanas were better when they cost $35 in the store and you could buy them whenever instead of having to spend significantly more to unlock them in the battle pass before they go away forever. Id forgotten that's how arcanas used to be released. Hopefully that's what they go back to.

This this is what I do at 10k. Sometimes a "nice try folks, fun game, gl next" when you lose gets you a few extra commend-backs.

Speaking of toxic, veno pos 5 at my mmr is so drat sadistic in lane. 4 out of 5 lanes I have permanently bullied the 3 and 4 out of lane by 10 min. Because often people pick carry 3s I get to see them have the lowest value at the end of the game. Am I a total bastard for it? Absolutely. But man does it feel good.

What MMR is that because I love Veno but every single time I play him (usually as a 4 instead of 5) I always just get bullied due to his abysmal Attack Range and Move Speed.

Mid/Upper Guardian, so basically bottom of the barrel. Veno feels like someone that if you gently caress up early then you are dead weight the whole game, but if you win lane you will have damage exceeding all but the carry despite only building support/aura items and having low net worth.

Don’t underestimate the power of venomancer against blink dagger heroes. A clutch venom ward placement will ruin an earthshaker’s day.

It's pretty funny, in a sad way.

I had the exact same mmr dip from divine to ancient after the glicko change and thought I might do the same thing. My buddy glicko calibrated at archon 2 got to archon 4 then used his recalibration and dropped to archon 1.

Miss Lonelyhearts posted:What do you like about AA? Teamfight affecting and gamechanging ults are the most fun ability to use. His ult is off cooldown fast and can hit from across the map. There's no more fun feeling in all of dota than killing someone who thought they were safe. For that reason I have always liked "revenge supports". Sure, you're a big strong core and you ganked me and I died... but now you're frozen in place, not regenerating health, and my team is on the way to kill you right back. You just traded a pos5 for your life, I hope you think it was worth it. Other examples of this type of character are WD (stun, maledict, ult and even as you right click me the damage is done) and to a lesser extent veno (ult, gale, and in the time it takes you to kill me you hopefully you can't TP away before my team gets there)

aa and veno are both fun because you get free vision that also breaks blink dagger so you can hold your high ground easier and after holding on, chase down any enemies who are retreating e: also works for taking their high ground, you can scout uphill for their blink initators/pudge

Yea every time I play a support that doesn't have a way to easily gain high ground vision I just ask why I'm not playing one that does...

There's no more fun feeling in all of dota than killing someone who thought they were safe. I also enjoy hard countering the regen heroes like necro, alchemist, etc. My #1 support rn is Silencer, I'm 10-1 only losing bc of an disconnect. I build him 4 or 5 as aura support not for damage, greaves into pavise and solar crest, stick both of those on your hc and cast your spells. Force staff inbetween if I need it for riki cloud or something similar. Aeon disk if you're getting backlined constantly, the ult is still game changing either way.

Right now it feels so strong going pavise - solar crest on most 4-5s. The pavise is just so much blockage, it is kinda insane.

I play a lot of offlane Veno and he is very good at winning lanes. Lvl 1 Gale is cheap to cast, and that + Poison Sting makes it hard for them to win trades or even hold their ground whenever you decide to commit. If your lanemate has a stun or forced movement ability, wait for enemy core to go for last hits, stun/Dispose/nuke/whatever them, Gale and attack-move with them until they're dead or under tower (dive them if you have creeps, obv), or until you eat too much poo poo from their support + creeps, then reset and do it again. Hopefully this goes without saying, but Plague Wards are not a good skill in lane. Don't skill them till 4 at the earliest, or even later if you're making GBS threads on them with your friendly Marci or whatever and want a second point in Gale. Max Poison Sting first and take ult at 6.

Hate speech and slurs being ubiquitous in online games is nothing new, but I had a very satisfying encounter today in that regard. I was mid against an Earth Spirit named "Obergruppenführer" and after killing him 4 times early, he starts complaining in all chat "Huskar such a f***ot hero." So I started making GBS threads on him in all chat and we proceeded to dumpster the idiot for 20 minutes. Loser ES ended up 2-10, I finished 18-1. Reported him of course but surely that won't do poo poo. At least for a few moments it was fun to make an edgelord loser seethe.

I like snapfire, but man do I hate her shard. I cast the cookie on a melee teammate who's hitting a tp-ing enemy and it flings him right over the enemy, outside stun range, and now he has to walk back to even get in melee range. Plus you can't choose not to get it when your team takes a tormentor.

 If it were a shorter travel distance then people would just complain the other way. "Ah if only it threw them just a little further, would've been in range to hit that stun"Plank Walker posted:Plus you can't choose not to get it when your team takes a tormentor. This does sometimes feel like a bad consequence of the Tormentor in general. I'll often misclick Dismember when I play Pudge

Yeah maybe, but it goes from guaranteed stun on a melee range target to guaranteed miss. Plus it's hard enough to get teammates to face the correct direction anyway and now if they're a few degrees off because they're mid-turn, they get even further out of position. I'd rather the shard increase the stun radius rather than change the hop distance. It's already kinda a finicky spell that can throw your teammate into a bad spot if you're not reading each others' intentions correctly.

I don't think anything gives me as much joy as playing pugna with a couple delay support items. Usually I piss off the enemy carry enough they really want my rear end, they then get to watch me go eth 3 times between cyclone/invis/eth blade/force. The sadness I can feel when they just have to stand there while I suck fuels me.

Between Pavise, ghost/decrep, euls and glimmer, pugna can be so evasive and time buying for your team. They blow all their poo poo trying to kill you while your ward is pinging them for heaps of damage. Hes super strong right now, and he's my go to if techies is banned.

my friend messaged me near tears because she got muted and didn't know why, I may have already seen the reddit post about it and told her that Valve had made the Crystal Maiden chatlines specifically bannable because of some drama at the major and she said they should stop doing the majors so that's fair i guess
