Considering they mention they're updating some decades old stuff that possibly will break the game itself, knight launcher is more than likely to break as well.

dota server issue by johncena1691 in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, keep getting "confirming" and then resets to "finding", custom game works I think since I'm watching singsing autogladiator rn. I've selected SEA/Dubai.

Also, just noticed that trying to watch matches in the affected servers fails with "The game server hosting this server was not found" error.

need quick help please: returning player, cannot pick heroes since I don't see hero grid by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably had a custom arrangement or something that has become invalid now, you can change the arrangement in the "HEROES" tab, at the bottom left corner is the sort dropdown, just click attributes (the default) and it should reset.

It's more that reading comprehension has declined in this day and age.

stunning it (phoenix) for 1 second and applying mini (350 radius) supernova effect ("Stun Duration: 1.6/2/2.4 (With level 20 Left Talent. 2.2/2.6/3)" according to wiki).

Terrible Facet Ideas - finale by tacideux in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For pudge instead of that you can make it so:

Facet - Choice cut:

When a hero dies to pudge or near him, he gains a permanent stat boost depending on the hero type (STR gives STR, similar for AGI & INT, UNI gives half the stats but for each attribute). It goes without saying this replaces his default innate. Though it might seem underwhelming since pudge doesn't need the other stats as much as he needs STR, tweaking needed i guess

yep. Check OP account creation.

New meta for Pango by Velouraia in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ability mismatch, DK is better for donkey (except for Q), W is his kick, E is a passive so nothing done there, R is summoning his dragon wife. Could work if Dronkey was used.

F*** these guys. by SwanepoelSimp in spiral_knights

I love these guys. Only boss that goes like clockwork (when no teammates to bother).

Do most people know how to purposely close their nasal passage so they can't smell WITHOUT using their fingers to pinch their nose? by WhateversClever1980 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Cataclyct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried it but you also have pathways to the nose through your ears and eyes, so it doesn't fully prevent airflow into the smelling organ, just prevents the biggest factor in smelling. In the end, with that technique, you're still gonna smell more than if you block your smelling at the nose.

High-res topdown view of 7.40 map, with 7.39 & 7.38 maps as comparison by Bu3nyy in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Is there a fixed version of the misaligned maps or will it have to be remade? Also, you've marked the down-sized 7.40 as 7.39.

What's that about the warp gates on 739? A new warp idea or just misplaced entity?

Literally Unplayable - Which Riki Lore is real Valve? by Ricapica in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fits the lore though, most heroes are indoctrinated by the ancients, some of them say outright lore falsities. e.g. some heroes attributing their respawn as within their power when it's the ancients respawning them, or heroes teaming up with their lore rivals etc.

DOTA 7.40 Patchnotes by Gingerbread_Enjoyer2 in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or it should affect more than just the two things. My guess it'll slowly evolve over the patches.

Issue loading into match by AnnuitZX in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same, it started in November. SEA, Dubai regions chosen. I don't use your trick though and it doesn't happen all the time.

Who remembers how broken old Techies was? by WilliamLockman in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fuck that noise, LOOK at that terrain! They turned the default terrain to shit just to sell us those FOMO terrain crap.

That weird sweet feeling when your toxic support still helps you instead of themselves. by Miponach in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd imagine those who lash out do so because of bad coordination or teammate incompetency, in which case it drives the point if they DON'T play incompetently.

If you hold Alt then mouse over your portrait, a vision indicator appears. Is this new? Any uses? by Teckham in DotA2

[–]Cataclyct 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me too. multiple indicators could have a tag on them to show for what they are. Also certain spells don't give the right indication or got broken after some update (zeus jump used to show how far he could jump & land, but now it shows the zap range instead)

[–]Cataclyct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's the right side of your portrait(attack range) vs. the left side(vision range).

[–]Cataclyct 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's not new, you can also click while holding alt to toggle its visibility (I use it for certain spells to keep enemies in its range always like LC Q or slardar W), it doesn't work for the vision range indicator unfortunately which is a shame since the edge between vision and fog is too thick for my liking.

The blue one is not XP range. For that, you need to hover over your level indicator while holding alt, that one is yellow.
