should look around on nadota for some teams that are recruiting or whatever

maybe you'll find that you're not as far from that level as you think

See this is what I want.
I want to do this stuff you do.
I think it'd make Dota a lot more fun then just playing some random pubbie.

I kinda have the same problem as Practice man, I can be really **** sometimes or sometimes just do the stupiest stuff. :/
But yeah, I'll check into the Nadota stuff.

to start off just find a group of people that are around your level and scirm/ih regularly

then go from there

what

ih = inhouse = casual game where everyone knows each other

scrim = organized 5v5 cm that is outside of a tourney/match setting

ih you can find anywhere on bnet or ggc

scrims slightly harder to find on bnet (and skill level is usually subpar), ggc has mid-high level, and irc for high level with the "professional teams" aka MYM blight.int whatever

I tried signing up for Nadota but my username and email were used.
So I found out I signed up for it already. O.o

Is there a such thing as 3v3's like professionally?
Like I know for sure I can get a solid team of 3

I think I gave up on Potm.

Don't seem desperate Practice Man. D:

But yeah we should play since Miharu keeps scriming it up. D:

Maaaaaaaaah bad.
Like seriously my router just ****ed up and I was trying to **** with it for 30 minutes. :[

I got ***** in Standard and I couldn't join a game that was close to being full.
So I just played some HoN and ***** with CM

WC3 needs to get some sound notification when you get a whisper. >_>

let's see

league of legends community is made of rejects from the dota community

and seeing as how the dota community is terrible enough as it is, to be rejected from that game to go play some ****ty dota/gunbound knockoff says a lot, doesn't it?

game's so much ****ing worse in almost every single aspect compared to dota, not even funny; why do you think the bulk of the competitive community is sticking with dota instead of moving on to HoN//LoL? the creators/backers/developers and etc of said games would like you to believe otherwise, but sadly its not the case

and no not having played the game before doesn't stop me from bashing it (i can tell that its worthless based on its mechanics etc)

Honestly I don't like LoL's community, the few games I've played have been just gay. I rarely get any mia calls or any communication whatsoever.

I don't mind change which is why I started playing HoN but LoL is just so... Casual and there is no depth imo. plus the game looks soooo ****ing cute. The creeps look like you want to play with them or something.

And yes Dota's community is probably the worst of every game but it's still amazing.
I love how the developers of LoL say we're not gonna make our game so that you don't have to buy it, yet you there are prepaid cards and all that **** so you can buy heroes and all other kinds of **** to have an advantage.

But yeah I'll stick to my ****tier communty and better game thank you

That's the thing. I DON'T want to get a group and play.
I've played with my friends a few times but it was whatever.

Like when I first played a game of Dota I was like, "****, I want to get better."

When I played LoL with my Dota experience I was like, "Alright..."
And then I played a few games here and there.

Sorry bro, I'm sticking to Dota and HoN. =]

if ur planning on being DECENT at dota plan on playing it for a few hours a day for a year

if u plan on being professional plan on playing many hours a day for 2-3 years

ask s2j how to be good

i played freaking 4-5 hours a day of SC for a month. i lost 100 games and won once

the game is 10000000000000x more complicated than dota

i couldn't handle it

just to get the basic shet down takes hundreds of hours of practice

like at what food limit to start making a certain unit, scouting in certain spots in a certain amount of seconds

that game is honestly the best game ever if u have the time

looooooooool
That sounds intense.

Is it due to learning to do things or just the whole multitasking like a mofo?
I mean I know it's a lot more complicated then Dota since Dota isn't too focused on controlling more then one unit unless you're like Meepo or Syllabear.

And go to bed! >:O

I've been playing for about a year, and I play a lot of hours considering the fact that most games take from 30 minutes to almost an hour or so. And I do about six games a day if I feel like it.
