I've had the helping hand chests just fail to open twice now, kinda wish the weekly quest rewards just gave you battle pass points directly without a buggy veneer of gachapon stuff in between

They themed the set around getting rly mad at the first person to frag you, which is also what I do on Drow

I'm also always bummed when there's a pause in my games but it sure is bold of Valve to make the game less stable and take out early pauses at the same time

Asking the Dota community to self-regulate was always gonna be a risk but it also seems weird to disable the case reviews while leaving the report buttons in - Maybe they just didn't realize the Battle Pass menu screen doesn't have a spot for the reviews to pop up?

bawfuls posted:The thing that I find dumb about reporting in this game is that you can only report people for not playing their role in role queue at the beginning of the game. This has also always bugged me about role queue reports as well - One of the things that keeps Dota cool is that heroes can be played in multiple roles and sometimes a new role for a given hero becomes really popular, but there's no way to tell if the pos5 QoP on your team is an actual support player or just some rear end in a top hat who isn't going to buy a single ward on the way to the world's slowest linkens

So many of the aghs lab bosses are absolutely miserable to play against as a melee hero, when you get the primal beast down to low enough hp there's barely any window between his attacks to actually hit the guy

Acerbatus posted:Is it just me or is this dumb 'get 3 chests with battle points a week!' thing just a way to obfuscate getting less levels free so you need to buy levels to get the drow arcana lol I just immediately assumed it's either less levels or it just maths out to be the same levels as it was last BP, but either way it's kinda crummy and was also pretty buggy for the whole first week

Does it not gain true sight after awhile? The other rooms eventually do that if you hang around too long, but I never thought about if bosses did or not

Whenever Death Prophet is in a match at some point or another I'll hear the sound for her silence even though her hero is nowhere near mine or my camera, and usually someone else in the game notices and comments on it too.

Duo queuing is the absolute worst way to play the game, even moreso than solo queuing. It's just my buddy and me left playing this game and it's so rare to get normal human beings matched with us!

The tricky part is having a trap room show up when you've got the money to spend on extra stuff but when it all lines up it's very powerful

Sab669 posted:I watched Season 1 of Dragon's Blood and was largely indifferent on it. Saw Season 2 was getting great feedback on /r/DOTA2 so I'm half way through the second episode now and man I just don't care? I like it, but I like anime/dota and don't have standards in either regard, so I can't really say "actually it's great, here's why" or anything. I was hoping the pacing issues in the first season were from Netflix changing the runtime of every episode after the studio had already started animating the show, but they seemed to carry over into the second season so I think they're just trying to tell way too much story all at once. If the seasons weren't so short, I think it would help a lot. I haven't had anyone actively trying to throw games lately but I have had a couple dudes that consistently made such bad moves I began to suspect they were intentionally doing it, but since they started from minute zero I couldn't imagine why!

If your high-five is about to time out and you run to one of the hand towers they'll high-five you, and I think that's great.

A buddy of mine came back to the game after not having played for several years and asked what heroes start off in the jungle these days and I was caught flatfooted because it's been so long since I've seen anyone do that. It's hard for me to imagine how it would be re-implemented gracefully now.

bawfuls posted:I thought the problem with jungling from start now isn't the lack of capable heroes but rather the nerf to jungle xp Every hero that could start jungle can do better in lane, get more from it, and actually get to play vs human opponents so jungle's a hard sell for a lot of reasons

I hope they make Techies fun and cool and somewhat less of a punishment hero for the other nine players in the game

The patchnotes actually mentioned Primal Beast as a future hero back in December, thought it was a bit forward of them https://dota2.fandom.com/wiki/December_14,_2021_Patch

The final boss of this one, yeah. It's got a unique model instead of just "an existing hero but big", stomps around and yells a lot.

I've been learning quickcast lately and it seems much better but I don't have it on for items because the first time I did that I placed both the wards I was carrying b/c I was just trying to swap from obs to sentries and I felt like a fool e: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5adApkpWTo&t=1060s this demonstration by Jerax is what got me to try quickcast, timestamped link to the relevant part Geight fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Feb 23, 2022 |

Bloodseeker aghs is like a rot that scales with your max HP and can't be spam toggled, it's kinda neat but seems like you gotta build differently to make it take off

It's fixed now but for a little while if you stole fissure and a toggle-able ability you could stunlock people from full to dead with Rubick if you had shard. I get the idea that there's *so* many combinations that it would be hard to manually test all of them, but they also have a test client that they just don't use anymore that would be great for catching this kind of thing! I'm a bit underwhelmed by the patch but I think it's mostly okay. Feels like nobody got dumpstered this patch except arguably Techies, and maybe Morph cause you can't do shotgun builds anymore? But maybe that's not such a big deal, I dunno.
