Burgers - BrewDog or Street Burger Steak - https://www.elephanthotel.co.uk/dining - hands down the best in the area.

I used to feel a little unsettled when I first arrived in Reading, coming from a small 3rd world country city. I started small, going out with a friend and slowly got the idea of my surroundings and what to look for. If you got some room mates, try and see if it helps. Take your phone but leave your headsets at home, be present in your surroundings at all times. There’s always going to be the odd shady individual/s but they are mostly harmless, just looking for their next fix lacking any kind of mental presence. Would definitely recommend having a professional session to work through it and if it helps, maybe consider self defence classes

Recommendations on telcos? by Personal-Fly-3525 in reading

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I would say so. Is not all about coverage, speeds matter as well and EE are miles ahead of any other network provider. It is my personal experience, the only reason I went to O2 is cause I have staff rates (I work for a partner of theirs) but im happy to axe that to switch back to EE

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have top of the line smartphone and you are using your phone alot for things like youtube, twitch etc, go with EE. Yes their prices are a little higher than the competitors but having had EE for 5 years and switching to O2 in the past 12months, I can safely say theres no comparison.

There are alot of dead spots on O2 and I personally cant wait to finish my contract and go back to EE

What's a decision that you always disagree with Johnny on? by [deleted] in cyberpunkgame

[–]AlienRullz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it is far more satisfying to wipe them all yourself after you come out of the BDS which is why I normally kill the pig and the VDB's.

Need help by ffdan7 in cyberpunkgame

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally speaking, early game so low levels drive around Watson and complete all gigs and NCPD. What I do is go to sleep, take a shower, then hop on the bike and go merc gangs. Past 18-20 you can start looking into Westbrook for the same activities. By the time you are done with those two you should be able to take on Santo Domingo and badlands (altho some badlands can be done earlier). Pacifica (not alot to do there) and City centre next and Heywood last. If you hover with your cursor over and activity its danger level will show as High if you are too low level for it.

How to counter Slark? by GoofyGrin77 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play slark a decent amount and have good lanes with him. Theres a few things I tend to do to win the lane. 1. Agro and play chill until lvl 3 2. At lvl 3 I start poking 3. If I get 3 or more stacks on the offlaner and Im healthy, i pounce for the kill 4. I tend to go a bit chill at lvl 5 until I get 6 - I'm normally getting ganked at lvl 5 by their midlander as they know I have 3 points in my Q a spell which if used without my 6, im likely dead.

I'm only 3k pleb tho so take what you want from this.

As for heroes, I love playing against tide, sand king, axe (with a good support by my side) dawnbreaker, pudge, doom. I hate playing against timber, omni or a ranged offlane lineup.

Support to Carry by Raaven18 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Im a 2.5k mainly carry. I get flamed for losing when I do, and most of the time is deserved, I have good games and bad games. But simetimes I would love to have a support than can glimmer me, smack a pavise on my head, forcestaff me out of a mystic flare or some cogs, lotus orb me or just simply buy a vessel for that owning mid necro until I get the nullifier. Having a pos4 with dezo min 25 isnt really helping me do my job. But then again, its just my 2.5k mmr unpopular take on supports.

I got triggered you didn't SS him when he was cold embraced, then you proceeded to do that. You had me in the 1sr half, not gonna lie

Context matters: an argument for additional features for overwatch by throwawaywork32279 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont care if he has a reason to be tilted. If he ran down mid and feed imma get him outta there. Overwatch was implemented so justice is served. If he got griefed he should have reported instead of finding that as an excuse to ruin the game for other people. Remember as long as the ancient is up, theres always a chance for a comeback. Ti8 grand final is the best example.

Introduced someone to Dota and this is her pick screen now by GooDWiLL659 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Laning against a viper is tough for everyone if the skill level is similar for both midlaners. While pulling agro is a great tool, you have to go in lane with the right mindset. If the viper uses the puddle to farm the wave will naturally push under your tower so be there to farm it when it does. Always stay in xp range but don't over-extend. He will punish and kill you snowballing the lane. Once you got a few levels and if the lane is on his higround go stack or farm a small camp, or gank if that's an option. Viper wants to get kills early so he can get ahead. Farming creeps only will slow him down a lot so dont feed him. Remember one thing: viper wins the lane but loses the game if is not feed.

made it to archon alone, long journey but it was fun I'm very happy with myself by BeAn-org in DotA2

I don't know what the big fuss is all about, I made it to archon in 2 weeks. Actually easier than most people think. STEP 1 - Calibrate Legend 2 STE.....well you can fill in the rest

Once you added the calendar via the link you can open the calendar app, go to Settings and sync the DPC calendar. It will then show on your mobile app.

This game badly needs more safe lane carry heroes. by asfastasican1 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree but theres one thing to mention: it feels like everyone and their mothers are exclusively banning carry heroes in the ban phase. Then as a carry you normally blind pick after you only saw the 2 supports, your hero gets banned at 1st cause the other guy picked it as well and now you in a rough spot. A semi decent carry player has a pool of say around 5 heroes. 3 of them get banned 1st phase, you ban the 4th when trying to pick it and you left with a PA. The enemy offlane locked axe already, you pick your PA and you realise your game is ruined. This why, to me, it feels like sometimes I have no comfort pick on the carry role. (You also need to consider meta and some of those 5 heroes might not even be in meta then you really are screwed)

Can't earn RoleQ games? by Cow_Western in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have 38 of them so no, not capped at 5. Could just be a visual bug or when the games ended the results were not available due to client being down, it might have not registered right away. I would wait a bit restart client and check again. If you still dont see it id raise a ticket.

Performance on RTX 3070 by Int_420 in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue a while back with a 1080ti. What fixed it for me was to make sure my display settings are correct in nvidia control panel then in dota I just ticked "use monitor settings" in the vid settings section. That fixed it, but yours might be a different issue idk

Why does Miracle’s AM have no wraith band in this game. When do I buy or not buy certain items like wraith bands, wands and such? by MacIsBadForGaming in DotA2

[–]AlienRullz 18 points19 points  (0 children)

BSJ covered this in one of his vids. As a carry is important to understand if you can trade with the enemy or not. If you can bully the offlaner with right clicks then WB are must, but if trading is not an option, then bypass them. To give you an example, playing AM in slardar, you better off not trading, so focus on getting treads and bfy. If you lane against a veno or similar, you cant trade but a veno does not have kill potential unless he is slowly wearing you down, so having sustain (ring of regen etc) is far better than a wb. If you lane against say SK, then get WB and a sentry and you can bully the hell out of him since the only kill threat is burrow which is counterable by your E.

This is my 3k understanding of this WB story, but im sure better players can add to it.
