lol last time i heard dota was when pocky, zhu and Hydro were having a big conversation about it in Sunny vale at the steak house {>_>}

Oh crap i remember when we were eating at a vietnamese place. We had just finished, so we stepped outside to have a chat. We were talking about final fantasy or something with the smashers. And zhu was there too. Then some random guy comes up to us and says "OH I LOVE THAT GAME" blah blah blah. He was really random! Then later he goes up to Zhu and says "Hey do you know any recipes?"

After he left, Zhu was like "thats pretty racist, just because im Asian and we're eating at a Vietnamese restaurant!"

We all laughed, and I said "Maybe he was talking about DOTA?" No one got the joke. GG. Or i think kirbyraeg did, but he doesn't like dota

 

[Miharu]

i don't get the joke

 

[practice_mAn]

cuz dota requires recipes -.-

 

[Miharu]

but its not like the recipes are even complicated

 

[practice_mAn]

ahh you're no fun!

its k u teach me dota later

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

I'd looooooooove to play some Dota.
I stopped playing Dota as much due to HoN.
Can't wait for it to come out. =D
My username is zBOREDOMKINGz
I'm down to play right now or when I get home around 3-4 so I can get relaxed before I do HW.
Mirana is my favorite hero and Batrider is a close second.

 

[Miharu]

eh thats what i thought when hon was first released as well

but dota's simply the better game

hon is far too imbalanced right now since S2 didn't port everything over properly (mechanics, individual hero animations being slow/fast, etc)

also, batrider is a ****** hero, glad they nerfed the **** out of him

I hate hon so much

it takes me 5 minutes to make a recipe

lol and the physics are completely different which I dont like.

LMFAO good times.....man that Noodle Places was tasty i just remember eating tons of chicken and Noodles spicy Noodles at that

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

Yeah I know DotA is the better game and I'll NEVER stop playing it.
Scout ****s me up SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much. It's soooo gay how rigged he is.
The main reason I'm on HoN more then Dota now is that getting together with friends is much easier and there are stats.
Like me and my group of friends had only one person who could host out of all of us and the other one who could got Delay when he hosted.

And how was Bat rider a hero you hated if there are plenty of other people that need to be nerfed?
Also, have you guys heard about the new hero Night Crawler who is going to come out with the new update? =D

 

[Miharu]

batrider pretty brainless hero

skill napalm/firefly, napalm them a bit, and fly at them because your str gain/base damage are both ********

brainless hero

ya nightcrawler seems like another dumb concept

 

[Signia]

Wow I did the same thing... on 8wayrun.com, the Soul Calibur IV forum. I post some genuinely useful stuff and no one responds. I guess Melee players can't resist finding and discussing advanced techniques when playing other games...

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

Night Crawler looks like a New Riki or something.
I just want some more heroes.
Like I'd like to see what Ice Frog can do with the slimes that look like Carnage.

And fine i'll admit that Bat Rider is pretty brainless.
Will I get props if I'm a good Mirana and Nevermore? =D

 

[Miharu]

is your potm as good as misery's

is your sf as good as yamateh's

dunno scrim sometime and we'll see about that ;D

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

Since I have vacation all week next week would be a perfect time. =D
Do you have Hamachi so we can just LAN instead of Bnet crap?
I gotta get my Nevermore better if I'm going to try to show him off. >_>

 

[Miharu]

hamachi is a pain in the *** and ****s my comp up

playing on bnet's fine since we can host via lc/dc, which can both reduce it to LAN delay (100 ms); DC actually lets you set the latency anywhere from 30ms to 250ms (bnet delay)

or alternatively, go DL GGC (garena game client) and we can play on that (it hosts via the LAN protocol as well)

but ya just IM me or whisper me on BNet if you want to play (tsUmuGi- on USWEST)

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

I have Garena but when I tried to use it no one would join a ****ing game due to it being that people haven't updated so I couldn't play with them.
I'm about to go play a game right now so if you're on we'll play. =D

 

[Miharu]

im scrimming right now

lol

 

[zBOREDOMKINGz]

****ing internet. I hate when that happens.
From the little we played was I a good Mirana? =D

 

[Miharu]

eh

can't tell much but

your last hitting is terrible, needs work

boots + 2 clarities as starting items is pretty much useless

as for landing arrows, no point in landing them if you have no followup and you lose more hp during the ensuing exchange

 

[JTB]

lol clarities on potm as starting item?

 

[practice_mAn]

LOL boots + 2 clarities??

gg

hey miharu suncrusher says you taught him how to wavedash

and L cancel

nice!

edit: i just realized the whole point of this thread

was my pudge's curved hook tutorial of any help/relevancy?

is it just a waste of time? I'm actually leaning more towards waste of time because I think it's difficult to execute.

Give me your opinion


DOUBLE EDIT:

GOOD NEWS for the dota lovers! I have a few amazing screenshots for u guys! Check these out! I actually took a bunch of these years ago lol.

http://ggnore.i8.com/The Articles/09-Vahag/warcrarft_owns_you.html

I have 2 really good screenshots that aren't on there that I'm gonna post now.

 

[practice_mAn]

http://ggnore.i8.com/The Articles/09-Vahag/pic11.html

yee! those are the best screenshots i think anyone can ever get lol

happened during a pub

 

[JTB]

REMOTE LINKING FORBIDDEN

s

 

[Miharu]

ya we're teaching suncrusher smash

in return he gives me dota lessons np

 

[practice_mAn]

lol thats awesome

u gotta teach me dota later

someone tell me if those links/screenshots work

theres some really cool stuff in there

sometimes it says "remote linking forbidden" and doesn't let you look at the picture, thats why im asking

So tell me if it works and tell me what u think

 

[Miharu]

ya link doesn't work

o yea ask jtb how we did 1v1 sniper mirror

was dumb LOL

 

[practice_mAn]

wow

that sounds so gay LOL

i thought 1v1 anyone besides viper mid was stupid

sniper... lol that must've lasted such a long time

 

[Miharu]

pretty much

i had deso treads when he had treads

was funny

nah you can do sil sf and other stuff

 

[practice_mAn]

http://ggnore.i8.com/The Articles/09-Vahag/pic11.html

finally! got it to work!

btw JTB: get *****! LOL

JTB do you play dxd too?

You dont seem to be at miharu's level from what i hear happened in that 1v1 but hopefully you haven't been playing pubs for all your life! lol

 

[JTB]

rofl, we did that 1v1 like 2 years ago

i won in apm, i remember that

i dont play dxd anymore because ill end up getting a hero i dont know how to play perfectly then get raged at

 

[JTB]

also, i laned against a nec/kotl combo earlier tonight

i never wanted to play the game again

 

[practice_mAn]

hahaha

who cares!!

dxd is scrubsville anyway now

I'm not even that good and i barely take dxd seriously now. I can't tell if its because i've improved, or because DXD is dying. It might be a combination of both. But DXD is like melee tournaments. They're serious, but once you get enough experience it seems casual.

trust me, there are really bad people in dxd, you're probably the least likely to be yelled at. Plus in the new rules, if you're accused of "bad play" you can no longer get warns or get banned. Before people would get banned for playing really badly. But since DXD is dying and losing their members to other leagues such as THR and HON, they took out that rule. You can play as crappy as you want, and there's not much incentive to be good because of that. But there are many people in the league that are really really skilled like suncrusher stentorian liezryou kaggo, and theres even someone named "I_rape_at_dota" LOL

 

[JTB]

i played dxd when it was a legit league though, back in 07 or so

i just dont really feel like registering again to play, i rather just pub stomp

 

[practice_mAn]

pub stomping feels like im stomping on myself

people leave whenever they die

no one is competent in the game

it makes me sad

on the Other hand in DXD... there is

Trash talking and Name calling
Competency (sometimes)
Lots of Lols
Russian guys on vent saying "Vawrds in Meedle!" aka frozen twist
a sense of accomplishment... sometimes

Oh my favorite: People in DXD will actually listen to what you say if you have a decent success rate in commanding a team.

for example "hey guys let's gank bot" and people actually follow you!

unlike pubs! "hey guys someone mind buying wards?" *crickets chirp*

wait what

young and stent are good

liezryou is a worthless piece of maphacking **** that's been ****listed every season (didn't get an unban this time); additionally, he's simply mediocre

kaggo used to be bottom 10 every season, and he's still pretty **** bad at dota

thr3 actually has a much better playerbase since you get to play with easties, and quite a few of them are on the few sponsored/well-known NA teams

lol frozen_twist ***** whatever happened to that guy

and most of the time in dxd idiots don't even listen, they just do whatever, pick public heroes, feed, and blame it on the team later

its like a hugely egotistical pub where it sometimes is organized by chance

 

[practice_mAn]

I dunno what you're talking about but in a startgame most of the time I can get people to gank with me and buy wards. And I haven't gotten a chance to get into THR yet.

lmao frozen twist made me tell stories to my friends for weeks

frozen twist + vent = suicide! He'd tell me to buy wards in the worst accent EVER!@

he'd say VARDS MEEDLE! VARDS MEEDLE

im like... k Here's some Russian guy probably getting mad at someone on our team for failing.

It took me literally 10 minutes to realize he was saying WARDS IN MIDDLE PLEASE. LOL!

Then on top that, i roamed in the sent ancients about to pull. On vent he speaks to me and says

"BECK! BECK" while he's pinging around my hero

me: huh?
frozentwist: beck beck
me: ... what?
*gets ganked by 5 people and dies*
Me: OOOOH... BACK!
frozentwist: i tell you beck vay dont you beck?! buy vards in meedle!

i rofled. he carried so hard. He also has the worst accent i have ever heard.

 

[Miharu]

nah they'll buy wards but

when it comes down to the actual placement of wards in useful positions and ganking properly, it never happens

unless its against idiots, which i suppose happens pretty often in dxd

but ya for THR i'm only talking about t3, which is the highest vouch level

t1 is like pubs, t2 is like a dxd startgame, and t3 is usually higher level than a dxd caps game; played some games with bulba-saur, kainin, finith, and so on

there's also considerably less pointless flaming/raging in t3 since warns are harsher (but if you **** up you'll hear about it), but nobody really cares about that too much (and people anyways)

bah thats the thing

my game is inconsistent.... for example

sometimes i'll end up having 150 cs in 30 minutes with bots rad and heart with like 10+ kills as the solo

other times i do decent support

sometimes i just FAIL like hardcore feeding

its probably because i would only play 2 or 3 games of dota a week though.
