[Megathread] DotA 2

I've been randoming and even picking (when I've found myself in AP) Visage a lot for the past 6 months, and it has steadily gone from 'did you seriously just pick Visage' to 'wtf Visage picker.' Pretty good for a hero with an ult that's not even worth the skill points.

I love how Swedish TV that aired the finals is playing the WC football song from 94 "Gräver guld i USA" (Digging gold in USA)

They air this on tv? lol
I guess I'm really out of the loop, but then again I don't play much games nowdays.

Alliance had some incredible plays in Game 5 but also some minor mistakes by Na'Vi overall amazing series.

anyone know if you can bind the ''follow unit'' command to something else then your right click?

Is this for the purposes of being able to follow someone by using another button or so you won't follow someone by mistake?

If it's the first case, m + leftclick. If it's the second, I don't think you can unless you want to unbind right-click movement commands completely.

Are there any youtubeusers who posts guides on champions? I wanna see some.

First things first, its heroes. I know its picky but that is just the correct term.
In regards to hero guides you have Dotacinema doing hero spotlights to give you a general idea of the hero.
Then there's Purge doing some more in depth replay commentary of games and heroes he has played.
I cant think of anything else there might be.

I don't get the Na'Vi haters out there. What are you trying to do guys? Be different? Na'Vi is the team that does all those "symphony of skills" stuff WHILE PLAYING AGAINST THE BEST TEAMS IN THE WORLD IN TI SERIES. They are the only team that will try to get pudge+chen combo and succeed at it -in a big,big way- against tongfu while they were at a clear disadvantage. At that match, combat vise, Na'Vi was winning. They lose because of 2 heroes. Puck and furion. Alliance has a very cheesy and cheap tactic which EVERYONE can do -atleast playing at my rating, every retard can pick furion and push endlessly avoiding combat, making the other team lose balance-. The only player that deserves some kind of trophy in that team is s4, the puck player. Because if dendi and puppey were able to get back WITH alchemist on time, they'd wipe the alliance and retaliate OR turtle, s4 prevented this and was a brilliant play in his part. But I'm sorry, that split push is not something special, it's merely a cheap tactic when you see you are at a clear disadvantage when you are in mass combat.

Don't pretend like it's an astounding play or anything, please. Alliance picks furion just because they know that Na'Vi has better combat capabilities and their only hope is to make them lose balance with endless pushes from 2 lanes. I simply cannot get how this is "good play", to me it is not championship worthy playstyle.

So all I see is the Secretary of Nagrictulure in your post.
You hold Navi up to the skies, they get beaten and that is somehow luck or something?
I guess fountain hooking is good play in your world.

[Hermanni]

I guess fountain hooking is good play in your world.

It's no better or worse than any other winning play. People keep saying cheesing means you don't deserve to win, but I'd say if you lose to a cheese you very much deserve to lose. I don't care which team won or how, but when chips are down all that should matter is your ability to outplay your enemy and win, and as long as you're not breaking rules there should be no reason to limit your strategic options or care what internet specialists have to say about it.

It's not "champions" but heroes.

YouTube DotaCinema "heroname" guide and then you'll find a short guide on the hero.

Idd, who cares how you win as long as you win, you play your cards and do everything in your power to get a win, esp when it's +1m dollars on the table. Anything els is stupidity. It's like those people who complained about Chelsea winning the UCL by parking the bus infront of the goal, if you can't work yourself around it then thats on you.

That's just really sad.

Like, you're a really, really sad person if you do that.

[Jackmoves]

That's just really sad.

Like, you're a really, really sad person if you do that.

haha, no not at all. You got strengths and weaknesses and it's not your fault if another team(regardless of competition) can't deal with it. You got no obligation to adjust your game to be more accommodating or entertaining. All you should really care about is winning. The end result.

Edit: Or do you mean complaing about a team tactic that might seem cheap?
