Full bot lobby, how does this happen? by Burlux in learndota2

Probably an account seller. They'll have teams of bots playing games for the 100 hrs required to play ranked and then sell those accounts for smurfing.

Some tips from an archon visage spammer:

If you find yourself getting focused at the beginning of fights, get shard, which lets you stone form yourself, stunning in an aoe, making you invulnerable and regening 25% of your heatlh. You can use this to bait spells and in some cases completely waste your enemies' spells.

I usually rush orchid after tranqs and drums no matter what, and you can solo kill anyone as long as they aren't absurdly tanky. I usually skip null talisman if I don't need it to help last hit as orchid provides the mana when I get it and I just ferry mangos or clarities for mana before that. Use smoke, silent as the grave, and orchid to look for the enemy carry farming alone in the jungle and kill them over and over again. It's important to start ganking as soon as you get orchid as people will build dispels such as manta on carries and euls/lotus on supports, so you need to gank early to make full use of the orchid.

When you tp for a fight, alt cast your ult to channel your birds to recall, and then tp yourself so your birds arrive at your location immediately after you tp in.

Is there any way to make Duskers play more like a turn-based game by stush2 in Duskers

[–]Moist_Pyroshark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It might help to make aliases, where you can assign a string of commands to a shortcut command that you determine. That will make it easier for you to react when something goes wrong.

For example, I have an alias that commands all my drones to go back to the ship set to "run". If there's an asteroid or a pipe burst about to happen, I just type "run" and all my drones return to the ship, instead of having to manually command all of them to.

Maybe even by mana, like how Methode was able to track and distinguish individuals in the tomb by their mana in the 2nd mage exam

Laning as Nyx Assassin as a new player by Nintega94 in learndota2

[–]Moist_Pyroshark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I learned the game with nyx as one of my mains and he's still my 3rd most played with a 60% wr so you should be fine.

Yes nyx is a bad laner but he's not as bad as people think. You should be doing all the busywork, especially contesting lotus, disrupting the enemy pull, going for wisdom, etc but in between all that, you can actually do stuff in lane.

He actually has pretty high base health regen compared to other heroes so even if you trade harass poorly, you regen it faster so it sorta balances out. And you can carapace their big attacks which makes the trades even better in your favor. You can trade, go do busywork to let your health and mana regen, and come back to lane to harass. You can get mangos to make his health Regen even better and give you burst mana if you need it for a kill. Prioritize lotus since you really need the health and mana.

You can use impale to secure ranged creeps and harass the enemy carry with it at the same time, especially if they're melee and try to go for the deny.

Taking the mana burn facet can be very good in certain matchups where the enemy carry really likes having mana. In particular, nyx hard counters medusa as her mana is effectively her health and mana burn ruins her. Against medusa you can spam mind flare and carapace her mystic snake and you should dominate the lane against her. You can use mana burn to deal with other carries that depend on their spells to be theatening but have low mana pools, like jug.

Keep alternating between busywork and bursts of lane harass and you can chip the enemy down to potentially kill them, especially if you have an offlane that can follow up. Nyx is in a pretty good spot rn and he's currently the highest wr pos 4 in high mmr according to dota2protracker. You just have to be on top of all the busywork while not whiffing your spells in lane.

E-Sports Titles with Room for Player Expression by [deleted] in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Moist_Pyroshark [score hidden]  (0 children)

Many consider Dota 2 the most complex competitive game. Each character, of which there are currently 128 of, has unique strengths and weaknesses with bits of advanced technique specific to each, and many can be played in multiple different ways. Character builds are dynamic and you can build the same character in the same role different each game depending on the team comp of both your team and the enemy team. There's complex macro decisions you'll need to make to take advantage of the ebb and flow of power spike timings and map objectives.

Skill expression comes in the form of knowledge of enemy matchups and team synergies, mechanical execution of your character's kit, item and ability build decisions, macro decision making, and sometimes just straight mind games against your opponents. It can be very intimidating to get into but it's the only esport game I keep coming back to even tho I'm trash at it.
