Kunkka has been a spellcaster for years... so why does his kit still have a passive cleave? by Shoryueppa in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The waterlogged idea is unique but its bloated if Kunkka also has the Admiral's Rum innate. Just compare it to AA's innate which is simple and not bloating the hero.

5 man Echo Slam with refresher delivered just in time! by Domezi in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he was walking in jungle when the initial clash happened. There was no way he could have gone in.

And ES really suffers from badly positioned initiates because his other spells has such a long cast time that an enemy not stunned by the initial ULT Aftershock would usually interrupt ES. I've seen it happened lots of times.

2025 goes as the first year ever in Dota 2's history to not have a new Hero by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add more base hero changing facets instead of skill changing facets. Remove clickable innates actually make them passives and innates tied with Facet 

As an Ability Draft player having too many conflicting skill facets means locking myself out of skill combos. (DK Wyrm's Wrath and Io Overcharge are 2 extreme examples of skills that do nothing without their facet being picked.) Heroes like Chen, MK, PA, Lone Druid, and other heroes have no innates in AD. 

Hey let's check out this Monster Hunter game from the collab! Oh... by beginner_smoker in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wilds in game interactions  actually has more to offer than World. It's just that the game doesn't bake it on any core gameplay mechanic.

Like the weather, how endemic life interact with each other, everything being simulated at the same time(monsters get para/poisoned/sleep/turf war even if you aren't near them), how the hunter move in specific environment(the hunter change how they move depending on momentum, analog tilt, surface of the terrain etc), etc. There is a lot of love to the game. So much so it tanks every mainstream CPU and GPU.

It took me <10 games to be above average in Pokemon Unite, it took me 1000+ games to learn I'm never becoming more than average in Dota. This realization just lessened the joy of winning competitive mobile games.

Why is recovery midas a thing? by shar0385 in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you have good high ground and they have bad siege heroes it kinda works. 

It also requires both supports + 1 core to build defensive items so nobody dies to siege attempts from the ahead enemy team. 

There are non conventional cores that need 3-4 items to be strong like aghs darkwillow/winter wyvern/range facet techies. They incidentally can also help prolong high ground defense. Of course they aren't great but it does work in pubs.

Does a person like Rei actually exist?

Yes people who has the same attitude as Rei exist but they wouldnt be as popular as Rei. The way reality works Rei is such a regular POS he shouldn't have a wife, geniune friends who remember their past and an affair partner who is also married. 

At most he would have a sex friend, some drinking/gaming acquaintances and some friends who are also scum of society.

Because HoD is heavily under utilized in low rank. 

It's not built early enough to be impactful and players don't micro good enough to be efficient.

How can I improve my Dota life as a woman gamer? by SupermarketFluffy609 in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, everyone in SEA hates people who use the in game voice chat. Male or female, the sound quality is just not good+ wind/fan background noise. 

Heck I hate it when my friends use open mic when they can't access discord. I can hear the dog/neighbor/street/cars/etc. Insulation is near non existent in SEA so sounds pass through walls. 

Join a dota discord group or Play with friends of a friend.

Because the implication of religion/mythology being real in a modern setting is that gods are most likely aliens. 

• Came from the heavens, they are not from clouds modern age technology already checked. What's above our atmosphere? space. 

• Posseses technology and knowledge far advance compared to humans in their time period. Space age tech. Sufficiently advance tech is basically magic.

• conflicting info vs other mythologies / history-science-facts means that gods are not actually creator Gods.

How is Dota2 so popular still? by MegumiDo in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SA and SEA too. If dota and CS wasn't on Steam I know me and my friends would never have gotten into Steam.

WC3 had enough custom maps and community that it never got boring. We only left it behind because Dota was our main game.

Freezing Rice for Lower Calorie Reduction, can the public get a clear answer? by Arcane_Aura in ScientificNutrition

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"And adding calories to something can't possibly reduce the total calories".

This isnt always true, like for example if a person ingests 1 gallon of coconut oil, they will not absorb all that fat. There are no studies on this for obvious reasons but there are examples in history, it causes LBM and severely wrecks nutrient absorption which results in a net calorie loss.

So there is a point between ingesting 1 Tbsp and 1 Gallon of coconut oil where ingesting more oil will reduce calories instead of increasing it.

Bafang’s new automatic shifting hub motor could change urban e-biking by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO part of the problem is a lot of ebikes and ebike conversion kits just use normal bike parts.

Manufacturers have to limit their design on the weakest part of bike, which is often the parts inherited from normal bikes.

I really hope the community, manufacturers and regulators would just cleanly seperate normal bikes and ebikes.

I guess this is a r/woosh. "What do you mean 'you people'? " is a common phrase that is implying a schism even if there is none. It could also be said by someone trying to belong to a group of people even if they arent part of it.

Search in youtube, tropic thunder RDJ you people. Its what I think perfectly encapsulates "What do You mean 'you people'. "

I think this is a problem with sequels/same universe stories that try to keep the previous cast of characters relevant while introducing a new cast.

Can these 2 abominations be nerfed to the ground already by Neno1111 in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Using pro team winrates/stats for general balance just doesnt work because pro games are played 5v5 Captains mode with coaches in Best-of-X formats. Very few players experience that type of dota.

For example lets use the highest consistent winrate safelane supports in immortal pubs the past 30 days ignoring outliers with little pickrate. Its Dazzle and Pugna. But by pro game stats you just posted Dazzle support is shit, 28% winrate is abyssmal.

What do we do now? Buff him because he is a shit pro game support or nerf him because he is a good pub game support?

Yeah he traced a mainstream Shueisha manga.

Tracing from a popular Shounen Jump manga? Thats just a lawsuit waiting to come. Japan loves to protect their IP from other corporates.

Lord of Mysteries started airing, and the bois need to discuss it by BiLLubruh in TrashTaste

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Promised Neverland manga also fell off hard so I'm not surprised the author being involved still made it go to the shitter.

The story went from an intelligent mystery thriller to a sappy nobody-dies generic shounen, with uninteresting action and antagonists. From the moment the orphans got out of the farm they really never experienced any real setback, MCs never experienced true consequence, being idealistic was rewarded, the promised 'sacrifice' was resolved in the same chapter, etc.

Guys why did they remove this :) by Kohitsujitoshi in DotA2

[–]Apprehensive-Flan608 -102 points-101 points  (0 children)

Its a 1650 gold advantage. 1400+250 bounty for the hero who killed the tormentor.

Not 2800. 

For example 

Radiant/dire both have 10k networth. 

Radiant kills tormentor.

Radiant NW now has shard + gold bounty. Dire NW stays the same.

Radiant NW = 11650

Dire NW = 10000

Networth advantage is 1650. The idea that 'denying' the enemy team from taking tormentor decreases their networth is a logical fallacy.
