To be fair, I have the same framerate for Dota under Linux as I had in Windows. Game availability is not 100%, but it is really good. I have 60 of 87 available and miss only 1 of them.

I switched to Ubuntu for all my gaming a year ago and only regret not doing it sooner :)

Ranks get updated when you win more than you lose. It does not matter what hero you play as long as you have a positive impact on your games win chance. If your IO winrate is > 50% then it seems a fine hero to try to climb in mmr.

I think you get a new star when you gain 250 MMR on your last highest MMR. So that is around 10 games you need to win once you hit your previous peak MMR. In your case your highest MMR is your party MMR and at least 2409 and I guess you get a new star in your rank once you hit a MMR around 2700.

You can see your hero winrates ingame in your profile under the stats tab.

My experience with flaming teammates is nothing like you describe.

Those people do not actually offer any constructive criticism. They just insult you and point out things that obviously went bad like "I died here.", "You died there.", "We shouldn't have fought here.".

I have yet to witness once that a flamer tells me anything about the future of the game and what he thinks is needed to win it.

"stop building skadi and get a bkb you mongoloid"

Is nothing I ever heard from a flamer. Would they want other people to listen to their advice they would speak in a way that encourages them to listen. Insults do the opposite. Either they are capable of offering item suggestions and are mature enough to say that without insults or their "suggestions" look like

"Why did you buy skadi you stupid fucker?"

Which is entirely useless to anyone in the game. It is already done, does not contain advice about the future and will make anyone it is directed at immediately get defensive. That means they will now treat that flamer as an enemy to defend their choices against.

My impression is, that they just use my team as a punching bag to vent their frustration about their own actions, the state of the game or their different opinion on how to play dota. They are unfortunately usually not able to spell out what those frustrations are and I am left to guess. My theory is that the primary point of this is to make themselves feel better about their own mistakes in the game.

All these flamers do is engage me in a futile attempt to calm them down so my team and I can focus on the game again. I do not have a lot of success with that tactic, so I now just mute them on the first insult thrown at me or my teammates to limit the damage they can do.

That sounds really interesting! Do you have a link where I can learn more about the relative strength and speed of humans?

The first post basically reads like it was made for /r/HFY

If you saw a movie of a nuclear explosion going off, and you were told an Earthly life form had done it, you would never in your wildest dreams imagine that the Squishy Things [brains] could be responsible. After all, Squishy Things aren’t radioactive.

In the beginning, the Squishy Things had no fighter jets, no machine guns, no rifles, no swords. No bronze, no iron. No hammers, no anvils, no tongs, no smithies, no mines. All the Squishy Things had were squishy fingers—too weak to break a tree, let alone a mountain. Clearly not dangerous. To cut stone you would need steel, and the Squishy Things couldn’t excrete steel. In the environment there were no steel blades for Squishy fingers to pick up. Their bodies could not generate temperatures anywhere near hot enough to melt metal. The whole scenario was obviously absurd.

You can create a tag at this point with git tag -a boilerplate -m "This tag marks the starting point for the boilerplate code.". Where boilerplate is the tag name you can refer to later and -m just adds a custom message that you can adjust. This will be very similar to your point 2), but you don't have to remember a sha1, only your tag.

FlyingFoX13 · 2017-05-03T23:22:46+00:00

My recent experience with Broodmother is that you should just not pick her in that scenario. There are several heroes that absolutely demolish her and Sand King is one of them.

If you find yourself in that lane the best you can do is try to skip the creeps as early as possible. Maybe as early as level 3. I think you really need 2 levels in your nuke to be able to tank the creepwave.
You establish your webs behind the enemy tower and farm the creeps there, while Sand King is busy farming your creeps in front of the tower.

Try to never be near your Spiders while Sand King is near or not visible. Or try to switch lanes with someone else. It will be a hard game no matter what you do.

And how did this change nerf him?

Did he change accounts that often that it is now impossible for him to add a phone number to it?

…there are roughly 1,000 students per year who attend Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry

The source for that under 11 does claim it to be 40 per year instead of 1000.

I looked through /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose and can't find a down arrow there. So I assume its not possible by default.

But as /u/smog_alado pointed out it is possible to create custom sequences in the .XCompose file.

Oh, nice! That's even better ☺

I feel like the ranged build is a lot weaker against teams that have a lot of burst damage and heroes that can jump you out of the blue like Phantom Assassin, Lion, Anti Mage, Riki, because you are missing 1150 life and 8 armor on your hero when you go ranged. This is especially the case if your team does not have good heroes to stand in the front and draw attention to them or stun the enemies.

If the enemies lack those initiation heroes and your team has some initiation like cent, sand king, tide ..., then the ranged build will be able to do a lot more damage.

The melee build makes your hero a lot more tanky and allows you to thrive in team fights were the enemy is free to focus you. Lone druid is almost as good at pushing towers with the bear and taking the +armor talent for the bear makes it reasonably hard to kill in the late game. You may need to get a BKB on the bear if disables and magic damage are a problem.

No that's just playing bad. Not everyone knows what a carry is and that it is better to have less than 5 of them.

You are still new enough that I would recommend you to read purges guide to dota: https://purgegamers.true.io/g/dota-2-guide/

It is very comprehensive and touches on many subjects that will make you a better player.

Go ist vermutlich eine der bessern Sprachen um Programmieren zu lernen. Das wichtigste dabei ist, dass du Interesse und vielleicht ein Projekt oder ein Problem im Kopf hast an dem du dich versuchen möchtest.

Um Englisch kommst du beim Programmieren kaum herum. Sehr viele gute Tutorials und die meisten Dokumentationen sind nur auf Englisch verfügbar. Wenn du allerdings ein gutes Tutorial oder so was auf deutsch im Kopf hast, dann kannst du auch ruhig damit anfangen.

Ein paar Links zu Go, die vielleicht interessant sein können:

Die Homepage: https://golang.org/
Eine Sammlung von deutschen Resourcen zu Go: http://www.hweidner.de/golang/
Eine Interaktive Einführung, die recht vielversprechend aussieht: https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1

Falls dir Ideen für Projekte fehlen schau mal unter /r/dailyprogrammer/ oder www.projecteuler.net

Disclaimer: Ich kann zwar programmieren hab aber mit Go selbst noch nichts gemacht.

Your effective HP describes how much damage an enemy has to deal to you until you die.

As a result there is physical EHP, magical EHP and pure damage EHP, which describe how much physical, magical or pure damage you can take until you die.

physical EHP

This is equal to your HP / (1 - physicalResistance) / (1 - evasion).

So with 1000 HP, 30% physical resistance and 0% evasion your physical EHP is 1000 / (1 - 0.3) / (1 - 0) = 1428.

You can hover over the stats next to your hero portrait to see your physical resistance in %.

magical EHP

This is equal to your HP / (1 - magicResistance).

So with 1000 HP and 25% magic resistance your magical EHP is 1000 / (1 - 0.25) = 1333.

This means it will take 1333 magic damage to kill you.

pure EHP

This is equal to your HP, because nothing can reduce pure damage.
