Sadly there isn't.

but if you follow Cybortmatt's blog he keeps track of everything(and i mean everything.) that comes out in each patch. (partial heroes, skins, etc...)

Ignatius · Feb 25, 2012

Somehow got stuck ringing for my friends team in the gosu qualifier, there goes my saturday. Kind of hope we just lose so Im done.

DJRome · Feb 25, 2012

Is there a way to configure skill keys to old mapping? Kind of hate this qwer setting

Frolossus · Feb 25, 2012

Do you mean legacy keys?

Ignatius · Feb 25, 2012

That's what he means and yes, you just need to turn legacy keys on.

Dota 2 test is the test client where changes go before going live now.

So, it's a beta for a beta?

Ignatius · Feb 25, 2012

Yes, which is why the thread was titled, "Beta in your beta so you can beta while you beta" 2 or 3 weeks ago when they announced it.

It''s more so laying out long term plans so new patches can always go to test server first, no reason to really not start doing that now other than it being beta and old content.

The reasoning is for the internation they are wanting a stable build so they don't have any weird bugs in the middle of it. Also, a lot more tournaments are showing and they don't want bugs. At all.

Hey guys, i play dota 2 now too! Is there a smashboards steam group of dota players?

Ignatius · Feb 27, 2012

Not yet, although currently everyone that has posted their steam ID I've tossed onto the front page so you can find those on swf that have it. Already tossed you up there in fact.

Fortress | Sveet · Feb 27, 2012

woot! I'ma add everyone. Is everyone part of the "people from smashboards" steam group?

Sinz · Feb 27, 2012

Getting ready for a lan event and just practicing with one of my old favorite heroes.

Tiny.

Fortress | Sveet · Feb 27, 2012

Not bad, man. Not bad. Are you going to be online at all today?

Mota · Feb 28, 2012

Haha nice Miharu, can't recognize a few items, what's your usual Tiny builds? He's on of my faves too.

Ignatius · Feb 28, 2012

I don't think there's much more satisfying than baiting an enemy naix to infest one of your creeps as chen, and then porting it to your well before he can pop out.

love itttttt

I like going mid and doing a bottle rush. I start three branches and a set of tangos. Get my bottle and try to kill mid or gank as soon as possible. After that i go for boots then blink dagger. After blink depending on if I feel i need more damage or more sustainability I go for treads(more damage. The extra attack speed is huge) or mana boots(sustainability. Also great for farming). If I do go mana boots I sell them later on for treads.

After that I go for ult stick. I love that tree. Holy **** it makes Tiny into an amazing pusher. You can 5 shot racks with ac and this. Which leads to the next item. Assault cuirass. Since most of your damage late game will be physical(and you hit like a truck.) and you have extremely poor attack speed, the item to help out the most is AC.

Then depending on line up if the game isn't already over(it should be over after ult stick. If you get assault shiz is nice.) BKB or Mjolnir.

Miharu · Feb 28, 2012

LOL i was confused for a bit cuz i've played 1 game of dota2 this past week

Fortress | Sveet · Feb 28, 2012

Anyone wanna play tonight?

Sinz · Feb 28, 2012

I can play in about 6 or 7 hours from the time of this post.

Mota · Feb 28, 2012

Lol sorry sinz, dunno why I put the wrong name XD
Thanks for the info, I generally do the same thing, although majority of the time mana boots and AC before Ult stick.

Fortress | Sveet · Feb 28, 2012

Gah i have 8am quiz tomorrow, can't be u pthat late sinz

I think that AC is probably the better choice. but I just want the stick so much. That tree looks ****ing hilarious on a lvl 2 ult tiny.

Rikana · Feb 28, 2012

I couldn't play lately because my desktop's power supply blew up. I'm craving dota.

Ignatius · Mar 1, 2012

Those chocolates look pretty awesome.

Sinz · Mar 1, 2012

PantyRaider08 · Mar 1, 2012

I can play tonight if anyone wants to. Also I want Ezalor to be in Dota2 already.

Ignatius · Mar 1, 2012

I'd guess it was the female with him that made them, she also has all those sculpture vids up on joindota.

Rikana · Mar 1, 2012

I would so buy Dota 2 heroclix or miniature figures if they were available.

Ignatius · Mar 2, 2012

Combat log is now functional in Test client

But possibly the best news of all, a new server region of Brazil was found to be a work in progress.

Vyke · Mar 3, 2012

The real question is: When is the Russian server going to come along?

Deleted member · Mar 5, 2012

I just checked my mailbox, and I found an email from Steam Support saying that Dota 2 was just added to my Steam account.

Sinz · Mar 5, 2012
