Got into Dota 2 recently, 400 or so hours played. Anyone up for some?

Done, even though you have like five times my experience.

We should probably add each other and get some games going. I played one game with BBMolla and learned more in that one game than I did in a week of playing on my own.

Meepo, Invoker, Chen, Visage. Whatever you do, STAY AWAY from heroes like Skeleton King and Sniper, they are MUCH too difficult for newbies to play.

Your Troubles Will Cease · Post Post #495 (isolation #5) » Tue Jul 30, 2013 2:30 pm

sorry. Stay away from all the heroes I just told you to play for now, or at least play them against bots before trying them in public.

The first hero I really enjoyed playing was Ursa, he doesn't take a lot of skill to play and helps you learn the basics of ganking from jungle, good positioning etc, I'd recommend him if you want to try ripping heads of with BEAR STRENGTH. I don't play any LoL, so I don't know how much transfers over, but you can't go wrong with a giant talking bear.

Other fun picks that don't take too much head scratching are Juggernaut, Luna, Tusk and Spirit Breaker. My personal favourites are Weaver and Troll Warlord if you want to try some different playstyles.

Going to restate my Steam user here for people who want to play. Add "Mister Bread" for dota funtimes.

Nice to see a TA pick though, especially in a setting like that. She's my personal favourite hero and the showing she got in the final was magnificent.

I completely forgot that XBOCT double kill at the start. For the record, he got a double kill by getting stunned then running away into a forest (against a prophet!) whereupon [A] tried to headbutt him through the tower. Everyone involved died and it was terrible.

Io/Spirit Breaker relocate ganks.

Because charging is too mainstream.

Vision, stuns and reactions. If you have two out of three you're safe.

Puck is a great counter to Breaker imho.

I'd be up for that, I play quite a lot of 3v3 with real life friends.

Your Troubles Will Cease · Post Post #951 (isolation #19) » Thu Oct 03, 2013 5:21 am

3v3 mid only tends to be hilarious, even if games only occur in two ways: they're either ridiculously one-sided or go on forever.

Just had the most depressing game of my Dota life. They drafted a Shadow Fiend so I drafted a Batrider to stop his farm. My friend on Batrider died to him twice in four minutes and pubstomp ensued. All five of them bought shadow blades, we lost all of our outer towers in 20 minutes, and I've completely lost all will to play Dota.

Diretide is a separate gamemode, so you can keep playing regular doto during the event if you wish.

The only trouble I have ever had with her was when I was against 3 blademails in a prior game. I'm thinking in terms of heroes though, not items like mkb or hh.

In terms of carries, Legion Commander, since Duel disables crit and IIRC goes through magic immunity.

I've fallen in love with Magnus. Who the fuck thought that putting two ~300 damage nukes on one hero was balanced?

Flesh Heap is godly on strength heroes and I will shoot you.

Heartstopper's kinda limited, though. Best combination I've had so far was Flak Cannon/Enchant Totem/Walrus Punch/Flesh Heap on a Treant.

I thought Overpower/Flak Cannon would be good, but apparently Overpower counts the number of targets hit, not the number of attacks made, so you get max attack speed for precisely one hit

I know it's been a while, but I'm planning on getting back active within MS at some point soon, and I'd like to start playing with you guys again. I'm pretty sure I've still got Molla on my friends list.

Profile name is currently "i'm in love with the coco". It changes a lot though.
