Yeah, it's great

I'm so ready to run some dumb Bane rightclick carry build while mashing New Meta on the chat wheel

I'd like to try learning how to play this game for at least the third time now, could anyone suggest some guides for people new to the DOTA? I assume that they haven't made the ingame tutorial any better at not getting you yelled at in games.

People didn't mention the most important thing, just mute everyone every match unless you feel like dealing with randos on the internet.

Honestly, at least half my losses are because someone flips out before creeps have spawned and decided someone else on the team 'does not deserve to win'.

Is this an US thing? People get hekka mad on EU West but I can't recall the last time someone fed on purpose, never mind before min 20.

I actually dont understand why Tiny needed a remake and such a bad one too.

They've been slowly phasing out passives for a long time now. Usually takes a couple of tries before they figure out a good enough replacement.

Is that seriously it?

No, that guy's full of poo poo.

It sounds like some node between you and Valve's servers is dropping packets, you can run WinMTR to figure the specific point. Bitch at your internet provider.

The change so that you can't drag the first wave for literally no reason other than lane creeps will totally ignore you feels very much like a not-icefrog change

Not-icefrog change just means thing I don't like, Dota is built on weird interactions and exceptions like that.

Isn't that a post TI3 change? That's around the time when these kinds of changes started (along with massive comeback gold and broken Aghanims for everyone).

Case in point

One weird inconsistency is that they don't let you buy more than one courier anymore, but someone still has to buy it in the first place. I really cant figure out why they even changed that, was bottle crowing really that strong, or were they just embarrassed that the auto deliver hotkey always grabbed the first courier and not the first idle courier?

*Looks at the billion nerfs to bottle crowing over the years* "We might never know for sure".

I think Valve just felt like courier micro wasn't fun or interesting and nipped it in the bud and I can't really disagree.

Bracers got nerfed like four patches in a row and are still super good, basilius is also kinda nuts for the price.
