My comm score tanked from 12k to <6k pretty quickly last month. Behavior sits within 11k-12k. I think players quickly identified you can get a comm report to go through easier than behavior if they're mad at you. poo poo sux

The closest thing I can thing of that's on the line of griefing / playing bad is ignoring a teammate and intentionally letting them die. I get there are situations where you need to just cut your losses but some times mfs will definitely just let their lanemate die 2v1 because they're upset with them and want them to appear that they're doing poorly.

Super-NintendoUser posted:I helped a buddy with some flooding after a big storm last week. I was in his basement and found that he had piles of PCs, like 20-30 PCs of all different kinds. I told him that for payment he can build me a PC capable of playing DOTA2 at medium settings. He delivered, and I just threw Linux Mint on it, turns out that DOTA2 on full quality is an entirely different game to the potato version my old laptop could run. It's amazing, like I can follow my hero during fights now, I can see what's happening. I'm still bad, but at least I can see now. From my experience the Windows client runs best. The macOS and linux builds both use vulkan to render graphics. They discontinued the opengl renderer in the muerta patch which ran WAY better. I've used the mac, linux, and windows clients all on the same hardware and the Windows Direct X 11 build performs best by far. I turned the graphics in the mac and linux versions all the way down and still lagged during teamfights or when lots of spells and animations go off at once. Windows client runs fine at high graphics through team fights. poo poo sucks bc i really like not dealing with Windows at home.

Super-NintendoUser posted:It actually runs 100% perfect at full quality in 21:9, but the problem is DOTA is terrible in ultra-wide. It's important to play in 16:9, which works, I just have to set my monitor to that mode manually before I launch DOTERS. It's not a big deal but I'd like to just click the icon and be on my way. Really? My intel machine screens are 16:9. My separate M1 macbook is 16:10 i think, and when i was playing on that i'd get similar performance to my intel mac tower. Aspect ratio and resolution don't seem to be factors for me. What're your specs?

Fwiw the combo is toss avalanche for maximum damage. Not avalanche toss. Max q first because that's the value thats getting doubled by toss. Get one point in grab tree

Try disruptor mid. Favor Q and E. Spam Q at level 3 and try to kill. If you do kill and level up level W once to send them back to fountain. At level 6 a they can softened with a Q and die to a nuke trap ult combo. Then roam. Rush phylactery if you're kicking rear end. Get mana boots and spell range orb if you are not kicking rear end. There's a good chance you help your team dominate first half of game and then back half or late worst case scenario you have a disruptor on your team

I don't understand double bracer. Same stats as a circlet and gauntlet of str, but it's 220 more gold for part of a regen point and like 6 damage. And you want that twice? Rather just save my 440 and sell my gauntlet and circlet when it's time

For two slots and 1010 gold you get 220 hp 48 mana 16 damage Half an armor 1.5 hp regen .2 mana regen Vs 950 helm 4 armor 4 hp regen Certainly would be nice to have both but when i'm trading as an offlaner with already more hp i'm looking at that passive hp regen and armor increasing my effective hp at low level like drat papi. Then in like 900 more gold it's a veil and also giving me similar stats. Like is the argument the bracers hit their full value at 25 mins and are then worth it? Am i incorrect in my early game stat priorities?

Should also get used to announcing what you're doing or want to do into mic even if you think no one is listening. I find if i consistently narrate goals and needs in a way that's helpful people are more likely to play on your page. Alert for areas to be careful of etc

I've gotten a lot better about not raging or blaming when trying to direct a game, and my games have been better in every way for it. Simple poo poo like instead of calling not attention to mistakes just rephrase as "let's recollect, regroup, and do it this way next time". If someone on your team is being negative, remaining a consistent positive anchor will also likely attract better coordination. Good dota is largely a game about being consistent in all its little subsystems and positive rallying language is another thing to maximize

I thought i read every 10 coins you earn from the boardgame gets you like 7.99 in credit and most poo poo costs 7.99 or increments of 7.99. Can you only use one 7.99 credit at a time or something? I plan on just stacking coins til the thing is over and see what i can redeem toward the end

Pureauthor posted:Clockwerk is still really fun to play. Have you checked out hard support clock? It's so much fun to zone. I just max battery assault, get rocket flare and ult, and not worry about cogs unless there's a reason to. It's super effective to keep the slow/stun and damage up at low movespeed with just battery assault and body blocking. Get cogs when people start to be able to escape
