I thought Techies was suppose to be two goblins or something?

Prob copyright etc.

Techies were based off of Goblin Sappers in WC3. It's like how they had to change Skeleton King (dunno why seems rather generic to me).

The Skeleton King, Leoric, is in Diablo 3. That is flying too far into Blizzard's face for them to keep him as he was, unfortunately. More than likely its the same story with techies.

[tn5421]

The Techies were Squee, Spoon, and Spleen(Had to look this one up). They will eventually be released as Goblin Sappers, apparently.

[tn5421]

Not to mention the free point booster for 6 months.

[tn5421]

Indeed.

[tn5421]

This was how you hosted dota games back in WC3 Dota.



Edit: A GUI shell on top of a command line process (GHost).

[tn5421]

BBmolla I hope you're trolling. What we call soccer most europeans call football. Our kind of football is called American Football over there. Because, you know, Americans play football with their hands.

[tn5421]

VOTE: BBmolla

[tn5421]

i just watched a TA go sidelane. Rush RoH build treads. Buy elvenskin. Build vanguard. then aquila then morbid mask. then sange and yasha. and rounds out the build with MoM


i almost began to cry.

Please tell me you are joking.

[tn5421]

Completely disregarding everything else thats wrong with that thought, it makes you weaker to your counterpicks.

[tn5421]

I seem to be getting a lot of mini-disconnects. I'll d/c for 10-15 seconds and reconnect.

[tn5421]

Good to know I'm not the only one with a disconnect problem. People keep telling me its my wireless causing it when I don't disconnect from anything else but steam/dota2.

Duo mid with BBmolla was fun.

[tn5421]

I bugged him for almost a month straight to get a game with him. Don't feel too bad.

[tn5421]

Warlock and Lina.........ugh. That's all I can really say...

[tn5421]

Quite frankly -20AS as opposed to -15AS isn't that bad, if its a flat penalty.

I'm pleasantly surprised the Newbee merited an invite.

[tn5421]

What's the highest score you've gotten on the item shop quiz? I've had 45,500. You can take it here: http://www.dota2.com/quiz

[tn5421]

I sat down and played it in the browser once. I've played it a few times in game while waiting for a game. I think I was playing for 5-10 minutes. I ran out of questions rather than failing 3 times.

@Saki: You can change brightness in game if you're running it full screen.

[tn5421]

BBmolla and I are going to make a Fantasy League once they become unlocked, would anyone be interested in joining? According to the FAQ, a fantasy league may have 6 members. I'm looking to gauge interest right now, and whether or not we will need more than one team.

[tn5421]

Dota2 Fantasy League Page:

http://www.dota2.com/fantasy/

[tn5421]

Interest so far looks like this:

BBmolla
tn5421
theaceofspades
Katsuki
Thebuttonmen

Each 'league' has toom for 6 people, so we will have to co-ordinate leagues if we get more than 6 total people interested.


Edit: One FAQ says 6 people in a league, another says 10. Other than that the FAQs are similar.

Edit 2: I will personally make sure there is room if I have to micromanage the creation of 20 leagues myself. (which is either 120 or 200 people)

[tn5421]

Updated 1967

[tn5421]

It was 6 when it was released / for ASUS DreamLeague Season 1.

Apparently it's 10 now, which will make things a bit easier. We might not even get 10.

[tn5421]

League Name: MafiaScum Dota (Used to check settings when in multiple leagues)


YOU NEED TO INPUT THE FOLLOWING AND USE YOUR TICKET TO JOIN:
League Password: zmud
League ID: 60318

(It REQUIRES a password for some reason, guessing because its invite only)

When we get a total of 6 people, I'll change the max size to 8. If it fills again I'll change to 10. If we fill up at 10 I'll strikeout the pw and ID and get someone else to start a league.

The Dota network loves to go offline when I'm doing stuff, will edit/reply with League ID

[tn5421]

BTW, there are 6 team slots, way to go.

EDIT: The # of slots is controlled by the commissioner, it can be 6, 8, or 10.

[tn5421]

This is what the settings look like.

[tn5421]

Welcome, TheButtonmen, manager of TheBrewmasters.

Add me to your friends list? http://steamcommunity.com/id/tn5421/

.....BBmaidens? Really molla?

[tn5421]

k

[tn5421]

People really like fantasy league stuff. It's the same reason people have fantasy football teams (american football that is, you know, where you use your hands)

[tn5421]

I would highly prefer to have AT LEAST 6 people by then, because once the draft starts nobody else can join.

[tn5421]

[/sarcasm]

FTFY

[tn5421]

There is a consensus so far that it is, in fact, going to be saturday among 4 of the 6 current members

[tn5421]

I don't think anyone is conflicting yet.

Buttonmen: Work 5-10pm EST (assuming its actually daylight time, but utc-5)
chaos;head: Not up before 2pm MDT (mountain daylight, utc-7)

@buttonmen: How long does it take for you to get to work?

[tn5421]

6-8 people drafting 8 players should take about a minute at most per pick. It 'could' take an hour if everyone takes the max time alloted.

[tn5421]

This post is made at 1:31 Central Daylight Time.

[tn5421]

Would Sunday be better for everyone involved?

[tn5421]

You had fun, AND won. Keep doing what you were doing ^^

Edit: I added you as a friend, Saki. I'm tn5421 with the anime-ish avatar.

[tn5421]

One person won't be on in time today from what I understand. If it is possible i would prefer it done today, otherwise I am scheduling it for 2-4pm Sunday (gmt-5/utc-6 -dst)

[tn5421]

I would rather have everyone available, because 1) autodraft system will draft you shitty drafts, 2) you will always take max time to draft, making the draft take an hour for those of us that are active.

[tn5421]

Pacific time is 2 hours behind central. so 12-2PM Pacific / 2-4PM Central / 7-9PM UTC w/o DST calculated

[tn5421]

Sunday would be patchy at best. have to be late evening 1930 pacific time at the earliest.

I'm likely out then because I'll be working 5pm to 10pm EST.

I don't think anyone is conflicting yet.

Buttonmen: Work 5-10pm EST (assuming its actually daylight time, but utc-5)
chaos;head: Not up before 2pm MDT (mountain daylight, utc-7)

@buttonmen: How long does it take for you to get to work?

Ace said it was ok to draft without him.

1) Potential draft times are Saturday(tonight) at 10pm Central (11pm EST, 8pm PST, 3am GMT w/o dst|4am GMT w/ dst)
2) Sunday at noon (1pm EST, 10am PST, 5pm GMT w/o dst|6pm GMT w/ dst)
3) Sunday Evening at 6pm Central (7pm EST, 4pm PST, 12am/1am gmt w/o & w/ dst)
4) Sunday 10pm Central (same as 10pm central on saturday).

[tn5421]

#1 has the benefit of being the first draft that we can do (Button didn't give the ok to draft in absentia like Ace did), it includes everyone that wants to draft as of this post.
#2 excludes chaos;head but includes everyone else, but it is a possibility
#3 only excludes aceofspades, who gave the ok to be potentially excluded (Will be selected by default if nobody votes for a different option)
#4 does not exclude anyone, and is the latest i want to start the draft


I set the time to option 3 in game, but there is still time to decide on a different time. Everyone should check the standings page in-game to check the time relevant for your timezone.

[tn5421]

If everyone is on at the time, it should take approximately 30 seconds per pick. 6 teams, 8 players each (5 on team, 3 bench). 6*8=48. 48/2 = 24 minutes.

[tn5421]

The draft is in 4 hours and 40 minutes....prepare accordingly.

[tn5421]

Apparently its direly important that I eat dinner with my family so I pushed back the draft time to an hour from now. Sorry for the delay.

[tn5421]

I'm sorry about that Buttonmen, it came up 10 minutes before the initial draft time.

[tn5421]

We can also trade players(I THINK). I'm a bit iffy on whether or not I want to keep XBOCT on, TBH.

[tn5421]

What was the name of Katsuki's team again?

[tn5421]

[tn5421]

That's why I tried so hard to get everyone there, I didn't trust the auto-drafter to not be retarded.

[tn5421]

Blowing crap up is fun.

[tn5421]

In other news, techies has been announced. We may have to get a new thread after The International.

[tn5421]

Why get dual breath when liquid fire does the same thing for free? To be fair though, I get dual breath maxed second (after liquid fire), and don't even bother with ult till level 11.

[tn5421]

I'm going to save my immortals, personally.

And scrub 'My Immortal' out of my brain...

[tn5421]

I meant the fanfiction............somebody save my soul please.

[tn5421]

I got the storm helm, the lion weapon, and the axe helm.

[tn5421]

Indeed.

[tn5421]

Are you able to form a party of 2 to 'practice 1v1'?

[tn5421]

if anyone wants to play dota http://steamcommunity.com/id/theforrest I don't have MMR because I have played like 2 ranked games, but my matches are typically high/very high. I'll play with anyone though

usually use mumble for voip

I added you. I highly prefer teamspeak or in-game voice.

[tn5421]

Legends of Dota is people making LoL champs in dota and playing legit dota.

[tn5421]

You know what I miss? Actual Warcraft 3 gameplay.

[tn5421]

[tn5421]

Techies is impossible to last hit with.

If the animation is even remotely similar to how it was in DotA Allstars, it should be like trying to last hit with cm.

[tn5421]

lol 28 base damage?

I thought he had like 34-38 base damage

buy mantles and clarities?

Edit: if mines are composite then omni shield cuts mine damage in half because the magical half gets ignored.

[tn5421]

I would pick up the recipe first since I'm pretty sure you can get the rest of the components at the side shop.

[tn5421]

Anyone doing the All-Hero challenge?

[tn5421]

I guess I won't be playing ranked AP anymore

[tn5421]

i saw tn5421 comment on a three lane highway article. that was kinda exciting.

Oh?

"Just imagine Samuel L Jackson telling you to go to sleep after losing a game or two in a row and you feel yourself starting to become toxic."

You jelly?

A part of me honestly expected literally the whole article to be summed up as: Win.

[tn5421]

Ancient Granite Golem now has an aura which grants 15% bonus health to its allies
First rune spawns are now both Bounty Runes that are twice as effective (50/50 gold/xp to 100/100)

Anyone else think this is going to be huge?


Maximum Attack Speed increased from 500 to 600 (the primary impact of this is on abilities like Windranger's Focus Fire and Ursa's Overpower)
This isn't anything to laugh at either.

[tn5421]

it said diffusal blade not mana break i think

It said

1) Diffusal Blade is no longer a Unique Attack Modifier
2) Diffusal Blade does not stack with other Mana Break abilities (Such as AM's passive)

[tn5421]
