AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Yes. If skeleton kings crit modifier is higher than daedalus/crystalis, then getting one of those items increases your chances of getting the skeletons king crit.

Watched the Thor Open today.

Holy shit Sven and Magnus have been taken to retarded levels of power. I'm not one to cry op please nerf but man do they need the nerfhammer hard.

Goddamn being in newbie queue is so painful. I can't get a finished game half the time because some retard feeds, goes 1/8 and then ragequits. Can't people READ about this game before they start playing it?

Also Sven is a really fun character to play.



Good god that sounds hilariously bad. 5 supports on one team.

Oh yeah I started playing Dota 2 about a week ago.

Bounty Hunter is my favorite so far, with Juggernaut close behind.





No, that's not because those are the only two I've played

I have no idea how to play this game mode. AHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH CLICK BUTTONS! daisies you Greevlings!

I get 5-10 minutes of solid immobility thanks to lag every time I try to play this, so I'm going to sit this mode out for a day or two.

Want to know a TERRIFICALLY FUN combination to fight? Clinkz and Naix.

No one goes alone.

(Not sure if this combo would be better or worse with Riki. Probably worse since Riki gets out-harassed from lane easier than Clinkz.)

This just in: Disruptor is still my favoritest ever.

Need to play carries more, but supports in Dota are so much fuuuuunnn.

sir, do you have a moment of time to talk about our lord and savior Slark?

just accept his embracing shiv into your heart for ever lasting pain and death

Western Qualifiers for the International are up

You can watch it in-game or catch a stream, but it's gonna be good. Best teams from NA and Europe fighting for the right to go to the biggest tournament in E-Sports.

Does anyone know of a good way to learn the game?

I've tried practice with bots but they seem hellbent on leaving me alone in a lane, and getting repeatedly assraped teaches me NOTHING.

Best way to learn the game is to jump into normal games, preferably with people who already know how to play the game. Right now I'm playing with friends who consistently drag me into high/very high queue for games and it's forced me to learn how to be the best little support I can be.

MOBAs are mostly trial-by-fire and persistence. You have to stick with it or you won't go anywhere. (DOTA moreso than others as well, just because of how much more there is in terms of gameplay and mechanics.)

try out different style heros with the bots to learn the abilities, thats what i did

i tried being support but alot of people (friends included) yell at me that im building the support wrong or need to buy shit, but when i role slark (which is an escape ganker) im free to run around doing willy nilly and kill whom ever and what ever i like

TUNE IN AT JOINDOTA.COM OR WATCH WITH THE IN-GAME SPECTATOR CLIENT

Okay lets rise this thread Skeleton King style

So I've sticked more to Dota2 and I realised this game isn't as bad from the first impression I had. But having a good hand at League does help, gotta admit.

Only played 3 games so far, one with Viper, two with Sand King, and oh boy do I LOVE Sand King. When I first tried him out, I didn't like him. But after a while, when I got some highter rank spells and actual items
dohohoho
