In one of my games I think I was Venomancer and there was a Drow on the other team. She was at level 25 super fast and ended up having like 30 kills. The one guy on my team was raging for awhile about how Drow was hacking and OP. But the fact was that she was left alone in the mid lane for awhile.

But anyways, so are there any standard build guides out there? When I randomly played LoL I would alt-tab to solomid or whatever the other site was.

I really have no interest in reading super long guides on how to play, I just want to pick up a different character each game and have an idea of which items to work towards.

Re: DOTA 2

You can now buy keys for $30 in the dota 2 shop and gift them. They also implemented cosmetic items. It was also the most played game yesterday on Steam above TF2 and CS...

Looks like a release will be coming soon!

Re: DOTA 2

Currently there's a tournament underway for the final invitation to The International tourney with $1MM first prize for teams from western hemisphere, and one the most epic games I have ever seen was played there in the semi-final of the upper bracket.

You can watch it here I'm not gonna spoil it it's one of the best games I've ever seen

mtw vs quantic coming up right now best of 3 series in the loser's bracket TI2 qualifier west. gonna be sick, these are two of my favorite teams right now. if you don't know, focus on Korok for quantic, the dude plays an amazing carry, like nearly dendi level, the guy is good.

edit: LOL, tobi just put up that the co-caster will be sing sing. this will be wildly entertaining, and sing is actually pretty insightful too.

Also, Valve has implemented the commentator audio live in the DotA watch system, which is amazing especially since you can switch between multiple commentators audios (honestly I just keep it on Tobi tho <3). The quality is kind of **** though unfortunately right now, audio-wise, hopefully they will up that in time. <--- it is an interesting system though because essentially they are stealing potential viewers from the streamers, which is unfortunate from a business e-sports aspect. perhaps valve will start paying out to the streamers?? not sure how that will work without ads in game...

Re: DOTA 2

Tongfu vs WE in about 5 minutes. I think Tongfu are def the favs here. One thing is def a shame is that mTw OR mouz will be @ the International when imo both should be. MUFC don't deserve to be there. Shame really.

re quantic. Putting everything into Korok, is really dumb. He gets shut down really easily. He is also not near Dendi. he is just in a rich bit of form and they had a few good games. He has nothing on Burning, who is prob still the best carry/farmer in the world of DotA 2 atm.


I'll be at the International this year, so its going to be soooo sick. Zenith is my pick to take the goodz. Anyone interested in entering a Sweepaments?

Re: DOTA 2

TongFu go through as expected. Mouz losing to mTw. Mouz made so many mistakes. Next.kz are undefeated so far. 2-0, 2-0 and 2-0. They win mostly because of their bizarre lanes and picks. Teams just don't know what to expect. The surprise factor is huge in dota. I still expect mTw to take it here in 4 games.

Re: DOTA 2

Nice prediction! Very happy to see mTw at The International, they definitely deserve it, and Synderen sounds like a good guy.

About Korok, you're right that they rely very heavily on him but I think he has the potential to be worldclass, in the StarLeague his Morphling was just insane. But he did kinda dissapoint in the qualifier. Still, a player to keep an eye on.

BTW if anyone here wants to add me on Steam go ahead my nick is Mr.Pone. Maybe we can make a Steam group or smth I don't really know how that works.

Yeah the qualifiers were disappointing for quantic. I think a big factor is just that teams are starting to figure out how to beat them, namely beat Korok and you beat the team.
