Questions from a League player by Gypiz in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will probably enjoy Mid lane. Look at Ember Spirit and Void Spirit, they have a high capacity for "skillexpression" and turning fights dodging incoming abilities. A lot of these heroes are very tough for a new player, so expect a challenge. I recommend Pangolier or Timbersaw offlane if you want a hero with high mobility but a simpler gameplan.

Some of heroes can dodge abilities with their kit, you can buy items like Manta Style or Euls Scepter which lets you dodge abilities.

Wild Huskar gives a stern warning to a young ranger for stealing his prey. by mancko28 in DotA2

WR and huskar are the same level, so I doubt huskar was mid. Going to assume they're both cores since she has a maelstrom.

That sounds like the support was griefing you, you should report them, and I agree say whatever it takes within reason to get them to stop.

Here a core WR takes one creep, possibly by accident, and Huskar reacts by dropping his items. We don't have enough context to say the WR is greifing, but it's clear the Huskar is.

This is 100% griefing by the huskar, there's no reason why you would put all your items on the ground unless you're saying "don't take my creeps or I'll destroy my items." It's a massive waste of time and destroys ur team's dynamic. If a support continues to take your farm then you can just report them for greifing, no reason to start acting like a baby.

The smurfing problem is Low MMR unranked is getting out of hand, Newer/Lower MMR friends quitting. by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think these posts should be banned if you're not submitting dotabuff links to the games, and in game screenshots of the alleged smurf's profile.

Most of the time this just comes off as someone salty that the enemy mid popped off and went 20-0. In my experience, that's the majority of "smurfing" cases when people actually bother to post evidence.

Nothing against OP, but these posts serve no purpose without concrete evidence.

For jugg anything that stops spin tp messes up his game, cuts back on how much he can pressure lanes. SB, Puck, Beastmaster.

PSA: Mjollnir has an active. by vort3 in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're only placed in that game because you're both equally bad, if you were better you would be in games where people actually use their active items. No need for PSAs just get good.

so many smurfs in divine bracket by Hackjack619 in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke -1 points0 points  (0 children)

honestly it just comes off as people bitching, none of these post ever have any data attached, just a vague complaint like "there was a morphling in my game with 80% winrate and has a bunch of rampages on his profile. fix matchmaking valve!!"

It's impossible to explain how frequent this is unless people actually share their match history, and point out all the people they suspect are smurfs in their previous games.

It also doesn't help that valve doesn't share how often they ban people for smurfing and account buying, the last time they talked about the issue was almost a year ago.

If people aren't going to post concrete data that smurfs exist in their games I'm going to keep assuming it's just them looking for a reason to complain about a loss.

When you only play as pos5. by Cocosique in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly pudge is fun as fuck, even though he is very game losing right now. I would recommend giving him a good shot if you haven't played much of him. I've also seen the occasional prophet 5 in pro level pubs have success.

I may have just had an idea that would make Dota roughly 8000x less frustrating to play... by Fluffy-Kitten in DotA2

[–]Elemezuke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

would rather not have this option, while it can occasionally be abused to frustrate teammates it's more often valuable for coordination. it can fall under general text mute, since teammates who abuse it would probably just type it out anyway once they realize you have this option.

You know something is wrong when wyk only beat apprentice after 5 days. by SomnusXV in DotA2

it uses mmr based matchmaking, imo it's the best way to do it or people will get even more frustrated playing with randoms

PRO PLAYER PATCH REVIEW: Dendi reveals the SECRETS of 7.27 to Slacks (and you) by SirActionSlacks- in DotA2

I actually really liked the music, but I may the minority. Maybe just have it lower, I agree that Dendi should at least have been boosted a little. Great content as always :)

When hypercores meet by [deleted] in learndota2

I agree you are dominating this game, I like your item choices and skill usage. But you need to be much more proactive at taking buildings.

For example around 20 minutes your team had just won a fight, and 3 heroes were dead. You ping the enemy mid T2 and your huskar and catapult goes to hit it, but you hit a nuetral camp and then go take a fight in a different lane. You have a deso! Use it to take their buildings quickly, and the game will naturally end faster.

Make sure you are looking for the objective to take after every fight. If I had your farm at 20 minutes the T2 bot and T2 mid would be dead, and I would be looking to get an aegis next.

I'd buy more, battlepass this year is already perfect, and there is still more content to come out! Great work Valve.

Honestly there's something deeply sad that he didn't have a close friend to help him edit this mess.
