I really like playing sand king, but I've got sub 50% wr and I feel like my damage output isn't amazing. I usually just go wand bracer arcane blink aghs then situational items, but the enemy team is pretty anal about buying dust and sentries, which makes sense.
So now I've started playing as slardar or spirit breaker and it's great popping people open, and I feel a little tankier as well.

Account doesnt have the be the same as your ingame nickname, right? Like my Starcraft, Hearthstone and wow games dont have to use the same name ingame, even when tied to same Blizzard account.

wouldn't Hearthstone in this example be what you're after? ie Hearthstone uses your bnet name which you can't change(right?)

He's just fun to use. One time I fragged a Slark thru his ult by double-edging the creeps that were next to us. Good or bad (usually bad), Centaur's a fun one.

I've been enjoying my time with slardar maybe I should give Centaur a go too

I kinda get it though. The pace and income is all hosed so heroes that have earlyish timings have a very small window to pull something off. And you don't have a lot of room to keep a game close. Like if early game is kinda even in a normal game, you can win and lose a couple fights and the snowball isn't as inevitable.

That being said, turbo is fun. I feel like games are still only like ten minutes shorter on average, though. Had a bunch of them go way longer than I thought they should.

people who force the game to go longer by retreating when the entire enemy team is dead should go to The Hauge. it's not very turbo of them

TOOT BOOT posted:

So when the versus screen says your teammate won <x> in a row as their super off-meta core, does that count turbo or bot matches or what? Because a very large proportion of these games end about like you'd expect and not like someone that's been having success with a weird pick.

i find the start screen is often wrong or outdated information

i've recently had 2 ranked WR forgo boots completely and every time i point it out i get flamed by them. coincidentally, those are the matches i lose. is there a guide somewhere that people follow that says to not get any boots at all? or do they think "the windranger gets there first!"!

just had a match with tusk ogre and warlock in the top lane, and an aggressively bad WK silencer party bot against a solo LC. the wk went brown boots into aghs into blink into shard that they got via farming bottom jungle when he hit 3. even the enemy LC was confused as to why he gave up the lane. he just called us bad in top lane for dying so much. the weird part is that the silencer he was partied with was playing completely normally.

I've been wrecking in Unranked with WW, I'm 6/6 with her. I'm going to stay in unranked until I have have a whole page of wins (minus any where someone obviously griefs and we lose). WW has a lot of impact all game, and I'm finding that I'm really enjoying the P4 role.

Last game I force staffed in and healed an Axe that had 10 HP, at the same time I cursed the other other team and caught three of them. When the heal was up, the Axe instead of running, went in and ulted the cursed enemy, and then got killed. He flamed me on chat "I HAD ULT WHY DID YOU CURSE" and I automuted him.

Thanks for listening.

good news! that won't suddenly stop in ranked.
