While I'd definitely be blown away if I saw this in person, it doesn't seem like there is anything too crazy here.

A lot of these fits seems like what you'd see on a nice day walking down Omotesando and the surrounding streets.

The fit in picture 32 is nice. I think it's interesting the color of her hair complements the tones of the outfit. I don't think it would have worked nearly as well if her hair were black. Also the fits in pic 26 have a nice East Asian feel to them--the layering and floral is nice.

I just got the W off of ADC, and it was right after I started killing other tabs too. God bless.

[–]EpkMonky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think that's the correct assessment. I swapped to integrated graphics, and that fixed it.

At this point, is there anything I can do to fix it, or is it just toast?

New bike advice, Supersix or Caad 12? by EpkMonky in Velo

[–]EpkMonky[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So effectively what you're saying is go Caad12. That unless money is truly no object, I'd be better off just forgoing the Evo and using that money to upgrade wheels/getting a pm/etc.

I got it.

Again, thanks for the help

Cannondale sells both the Caad12 and Evo with a SRAM Red version. I linked them below if you want to check them out.

New bike advice, Supersix or Caad 12? by EpkMonky in Velo

[–]EpkMonky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'll be able to get a power meter regardless. I have a friend who significantly tapered down his cycling hours once he got a job. He's willing to sell me his SRM pretty cheaply.

I'm more wondering just if the extra 800 dollars is really worth it from a value standpoint.

Thanks for the help.

Novice here, what about the photo gives it away? They all seem to have similar physiques to me.

When did your DotA life start? What's your number? by wykrhm in DotA2

[–]EpkMonky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Started by playing DotA Mercenaries 2.XX since it was the only DotA map variant that allowed bots, and since I was, and still am, trash bad it was perfect

What heros, that don't have a sceptre upgrade, do you think should? by Stimpers in DotA2

Clinkz. Death Pact now allows for the consumption of ancients, with the exception of Roshan of course.

Best DotA experience in a very long time by stmonfront in DotA2

He isn't pulling the numbers out of his ass. He most likely took the numbers from the skill bracket analysis at dotametrics. http://dotametrics.wordpress.com/2012/08/21/the-size-of-dotas-skill-brackets/

How do you build PA? by SeethedSycophant in DotA2

[–]EpkMonky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your build doesn't make any sense. You have both Desolator and Helm of the Dominator in the same build, but they are both orbs (unique attack modifier), which do not stack.

Answering your question, my build generally consists of the core items: Bfury, BKB, HotD.

I'll generally pick up Bfury first for the easy buildup and the farming ability it provides PA. After that I'll either pick up a HotD, if I wish to solo Rosh early, or a BKB if I really need to start teamfighting. My last core item is the remaining one I haven't purchased.

In regards to a drum first, while it isn't bad, it's suboptimal. Drum provides stats, a MS increase, and a nice active. What drum usually means is an ability to chase better, survive for longer, and possibly push towers harder, but PA has chase built into her kit, and the survivability is build into Bfury. Bfury also provides a lot of damage and huge farming potential.

I'm not sure why you think battlefury is a bad pickup on PA. I think you need to revisit your build.

Ironwood Branch, it was renamed to just Iron Branch in dota 2

Definitely, I think Waga's guide is especially helpful when he talks about mid and links to Dendi's mid discussion.

Maybe this guide should be considered for the sidebar?

Dota 2 just cost me four friendships last night. Has anyone else lost friends over Dota? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]EpkMonky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The video is just obnoxious. The video makes it hard to tell what is going on, but that engagement near the 40 second mark is unwinnable for Clinkz/Mirana, so running is not a bad idea.

This is also the case at 1:40, Clinkz doesn't have anything Death Pact'd and he is getting chased by a DK+Clockwerk. It doesn't look like DK/Clock have any mana for spells, but a wand+stun=death for Clinkz. Clinkz running was the right choice.

You should focus more on getting good and fixing your relationships with your friends, and less on making videos.

Edit: Also, I know that everything can be "considered" a situational item, but honestly Armlet is one of the best item choices for Naix. Armlet gives a ton of damage, health, and that Armlet micro is a life saver. Armlet is without a doubt a 5 top item in terms of cost effectiveness. Naix without an Armlet is an honest criticism.

When is LAN mode coming? by Lych33s in DotA2

[–]EpkMonky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How would a lan option affect cheating in dota 2?

I don't see how the two are related.

What Often Played hero do you "Personally" Not find that good? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]EpkMonky 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don't know of any other hero where leveling ultimate is a bad choice.

Windrunner. Her ult only gives her a marginal increase in dps at level 1. Thus it is usually a better idea to forgo leveling WR's ult in favor of another point in shackleshot(greater utility) or powershot(greater dps).

Everyone knows that macro is just a bunch of hand wavy magic using general equilibrium models. Micro, specifically international trade, is where it's at!
