    the crits dont stack, but they will proc at different times, so in a way you have a higher chance.
    So there's effectively 50% chance to crit? Or am I misunderstanding?

    Stacking Daed's is a terrible idea and a waste of money. Let's not talk about it.

    it's seperate instances of the 25% chance, so every hit it'll have a 25% and then another 25% chance of proccing.

    It's still a horrible idea though.

    this also apply's to PMS and Stout sheild and vanguard aswell

    either my skill level severely fucking dipped or my luck is simply terrible

    either way, i'm taking a pause from this game, it just ends up with me getting frustrated



    wow i tried to model to get my mind off dota, but maya decided to get a fatal error, and then the reporting system froze and crashed

    things are not​ going my way tonight

    Micro
    Your
    Bear

    Edited:

    I mean real micro, bind him to a second control group or something. If you don't feel like playing two heroes at the same time, give up on Lone Druid.

    Maybe it's the weekend, it always happens to me on the weekend. Thats why I try and stray away from dota on the weekend.

    Holy shit, I'm scared about summer break. What if summer break turns into a weekend level of bad.

    Early game only buy for your bear, besides boots and support items for your bear on druid.

    Mid/Late game build on your druid, don't use your ult until like level 16 when you can tank well.

    That's how I play him at least.

    I have a friend who played 150 hours of practice games before he played two real games. He then played 25 more hours of practice games.

    He's doing God's work.


    I've only played 4 matches.
    :saddowns:
    The rest is watching replays and practicing. I don't want to suck and let people down fp.

    People seem to bitch less about your deaths if you do something productive like ward

    if they just bitch at you say "do you want wards or not" then they will probably just shut up after that

    I have 235 hours on dota and only played one real game. Everything else is versus bots and watching others play. Don't want to let people down and become the laughing stock of the match, the 'that guy' who feeds and sucks shit.

    You may as well just start playing because it's the best way to get better.
    Also everyone is terrible so you don't have to feel bad about disappointing them because they're all horrible people.

    Interesting, Treant Protector currently has a 57.70% winrate, the third highest of any hero
    Wonder why. He's pretty easy to counter.

    Well the way I see it is that bots (Normal or higher. Hell, sometimes easy) are better than most pubbers. So if you can do alright against them, you'll probably do fine against people.

    I have never seen a single character lose so many games on his own more than Bloodseeker, and Alchemist has the lowest win rate in the game. Fuck Bloodseeker. I'd rather see Techies than Bloodseeker instalocked.

    Your stats will probably get wiped when the game actually comes out, so why care about your W/L ratio anyway

    No, at most they should give all beta testers a hat or something else cosmetic.

    The higher amount of wins you have, the higher chance you have at getting an unusual when beta switches over to the regular

    No they give you ten so you should only use 5. Sorry, that was mean. In all seriousness, using all 10 effectively can be a puzzle, but you should work towards mastering all ten. I'd say if you aren't using at least five, then you should not be playing out of bot games.

    Smash, I found out how to do the music overlay.

    On topic: I think Satanic is one of the weakest upgrades in the game. HotD is amazing for it's cost though. Satanic is always a dead last thing for me.
    Satanic is pretty awesome if you're building DPS Morphling, since you can melt everything with stupid damage and not worry about the fact that you only have 1500 health at level 25.
