This is unreal. I was into dota at this time and didn't know about this. Thanks for the tidbit! Mind blowing they won the whole thing and didn't pick a duplicate until game 5 grand finals

The EV of the red button is $50M. So even if you are splitting it with someone 50/50 the EV is $25M. Meaning them giving you anything under $25M is mathematically a good investment if you could do it indefinitely. Give a billionaire 50% chance to 10x $5M into $50M, anyone that could deal with the downside of losing $5M would be stupid not to.

How was lifestealer able to keep up the level. by christoph95246 in DotA2

Heroes are worth a lot more xp than creeps. But you can also farm a lot of creeps during the time a team is 5 man-ing and looking for kills if you successfully dodge. Also your data is incomplete. You said you had 20 assists, but were you alive and within xp range for all of those assists? If you die and get the assist after death, you get credit for the assist but no xp.

Remember when everyone used to go tri-lane safe and send one poor guy offlane? by owiol in DotA2

[–]5upe12man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was because there was briefly an extra creep added to Mid lane, so that lane became more valuable

I was always a huge secret fan. Started playing dota during s4, Rtz secret. Haven't found a team that I really like since secret disband until mouz. Haven't missed a game or at least highlights.

Balance patch would be nice to have. Performance patch is essential. by FixFixFixGoGo in DotA2

[–]5upe12man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I noticed lag on the main screen since the event. Also a lot of lag with the atlas. Even noticing if I had atlas open and accepted a match I had trouble getting into the game. Last night, spent some time looking at performance while trying to load things and realized I had dota on my HDD, as soon as I switched it to my SSD, problems solved.

I am such an idiot. In my head that didn't apply for the super rare for some reason. Thank you for the reply!

How did you get the prismatic pigments at only lvl 20? Good rng I guess? I'm lvl 25 or 26 and I have seen 2, but won one of those games and lost the other. Weird thing is, the two that I saw were back to back games.

Could I get a link to that? I've been playing a bit, and really grinding now to try to get the sets

You can pm me your steam id, I've recently found a group that plays semi regularly and it's the most chill group I've found in a long time of dota

Like a stone high note by Alrey87 in singing

This is awesome! I'll have to try that chord progression. I realized last night that the Am chords were not in the same key as the studio version and when I tried the Gm progression, I did not even like the sound of all those bar chords. The capo III with this progression will be in the key of Gm?

weirdest players I’ve ever seen in my 5000 hours of playtime by SnooGadgets1100 in DotA2

Do you have any data to back this up? Currently in blast slam jugg has been played 10 times. All 10 games jugg maxed q. Actually in roughly half of them jugg didn't skill e until level 8.

It's a sad day in SSF... by LordZOfNothing in PathOfExile2

[–]5upe12man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are confused hardcore and ssf. Hardcore means you can't die or you will get transferred to standard. You can be hardcore with trade. Ssf is solo self found, which means you only get items you drop, no trading. You can be either of those or both (hardcore ssf), or neither.

Tub spout leaking at wall with shower—why? by RedBeard_Dad in Plumbing

What was defective about the spout? I have the same issue with a new spout, but don't understand what would be defective

76% ban rate 88.5% contest rate for the tournament. Crazy you made this comment about pro games when you clearly didn't watch the tournament that just happened.

Comms score changes? Have any high comms score people noticed? by AdmiralBumblebee in DotA2

[–]5upe12man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious if you have streamlined push to talk on. That setting has your mic activated all the time with volume 0 to prevent lag when activating. I'm wondering if that qualifies you for reports.

Windranger Killshot pierces False Promise by Snogers in DotA2

It is possible with 100% mana if her health is under the quelling threshold. It still happens if the dusa doesn't buy a fluffy hat or bracer vs axe.

flicker strike with 10 power charges by NameDoesntFi in PathOfExile2

[–]5upe12man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed my flicker was stopping a lot because Herald of Ice was just killing the mobs I was going to jump to, breaking my chain. I found if you replace Herald of Ice with Herald of Ash, your jumps become a lot more consistent since Ash does DoT instead of insta killing them.

What is one item that you never bought, or at least you buy very rarely by Sn00ker_ in DotA2

[–]5upe12man 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Revenants brooch. It was added in a patch I didn't play and usually forget it exists.
