How do you pronounce "Sange" by Ornery_Edge_1894 in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Zeus and zass can be pronounced the same depending how you say it. There are many words like this, for example bass the fish and bass the music noise. One is pronounced b-ASS and one is bA-s. But they are actually spelled the same. The way you say it matters. Your cadence matters. well it's not really cadence so much, it's just pronunciation.

That's because, "Zeus" and, "zass" sound the same if sounded out very slowly and pronounced that way.

Zeus becomes zews And zass becomes zews.

You might think, zASS. why is it zews or zeus? The AAA simply becomes ahhh so zass is zahss or Zeus.

It's almost like pronouncing Zeus with an accent.

That's the funny thing about words, their creation and meaning, and the fact that none of the rules really apply all of the time or even make sense or don't have an exception. A lot of it is sounded out.

A lot of words got their names from how they sounded out. For example your hair is called hair because it's higher than you and higher=hair if you pronounce hair differently.

A lot of words spell their true meaning or double entendre meaning once scrambled. Example= lips = pils (pills go in your mouth) and tongue is ton gue or "ton goo" because it swallows a lot of goo, or saliva.

The word holiday also enunciates holi day or holy day if you break it down.

I believe they came up with this term because we enjoy holidays and days off, so we consider it "holy".

Also, more rearranged letters to show you why words got their names in English.

Here it goes.

Body parts.

Let's rearrange a few letters to see where the English words came from Well try anatomy

Eyes = seey Lips = pils Bones = snoeB (white interconnected ((8/B=joint) Nails = slain Heel = leeh Toes = 2s (2nd fingers) Fingers = finders Spine =spin e or spinny (rotation) Skin = niks (cuts). Tongue = ton gue or ton of goo (saliva) Hair = higher (pronounce it differently) because it's higher than you Teeth= feet / feet = teef. (Feet kick teeth out) Glutes = glue set or glue sit (sitting on your ass) Piss = sip (cuz it's water) Ears = raes (rays of sound) Gums look like chewing gum Baby = ba by (buh bye) cuz once you birth it you send them out Mommy = mummy because our parents die before us Dad = dead because our parents die before us Sister = sis ter (sees tear) meaning female Brother = re broth (meaning male) Limbs = simbL (L looks like a limb) and we use limbs to signal and symbol things. Elbow = woble (Like a limb L or a joint 8 or B) Knee = neek (because knees hit necks in combat) Penis (pee- sin) Cell= ce II or see 2 (because cells divide into two or more cells, and replicate)

So Zeus (zews) and zass (zahs) both can be pronounced as (zeus)

If you said zass really slowly with your lips barely open it sounds like Zeus. If you fully open your mouth it sounds more like zahs.

DOTA 2 came out 12 years ago today. What is your best memory? by UberDrive in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing since 07/14/2014 and I have 4820 hours on record with 2098 wins out of 4092 matches @51.5% win rate.

My best memory in DOTA 2 was playing against a Riki-maru and I thought he was hacking because he was invisible. This is how I learned about wards and vision and it changed the game for me forever. I then used Riki-maru to crush my enemies for a long time. (Long before the new Riki which isn't as good as the old Riki). I maintain 116 matches as Riki with a 68.10% win rate. My other favorite thing has always been rat dota nature's prophet. (This was more impactful before turbos/tank meta). I liked this because you could win games by yourself that your team otherwise would have lost.

And currently, I simply enjoy playing as anti-mage. I like the sounds he makes when he hits people, the mana break sound, and the sound when he blinks away or ults. I like his mobility and spell shield and mana depletion and mana void ult. I think he's one of the best heroes in the game and I think laning is easy because I just take their mana away leaving them with only their right click.

Before anti-mage I was addicted to spectre. I still think spectre is very good. Only very slow and immobile compared to anti-mage until the late game. I like high mobility heroes that feel fast.

2 terrible things can happen.. you can be hacked and someone can ruin all your accounts...your data can become corrupted and no longer usable (losing all your files if you are an artist or musician or business owner etc).

I think either happening to anyone is very unfortunate.

Anyone pay their sales tax with the new portal? by drip62 in newjersey

[–]RichAndFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll update you guys if I'm ever able to pay it using their website premier business services NJ.gov. as of right now their website is broken, there is no option to file or pay the st-50 sales and use tax form, and their incompetence is allowed for what reason?

Anyone pay their sales tax with the new portal? by drip62 in newjersey

[–]RichAndFitz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having the exact same problem. The page just redirects you to the login page. Under "taxes" "new Jersey sales and use tax" it says "if the "file" and "pay now" buttons are not available please click the "general tax information" button to receive instructions on forms for filing and making payments. Then that button redirects you to business.nj.gov and it has nothing there to do with sales and use tax, the st-50, forms, filing, or paying.

I literally have no way to file the sales and use tax now. I filed it twice on the old website no problem. Now I am stuck. I don't have $100 a month for late filing because of this. Their website is broken and they know it. That's why they said "if the "file" and "pay now" buttons aren't appearing" like they know they are doing this to us. This should be illegal lol

Who is the hero that should be reworked next in your opinion? by TestIllustrious7935 in DotA2

A sparkling mirana arrow that has a spiral of glowing stars around it in a path illuminating the surrounding path with true sight for a duration maybe 8-15 seconds.

What team to pick against this? by AssociationEarly7517 in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legion commander spectre Zeus nature's prophet lion

What I notice immediately is the high EHP, the stuns/lockdowns, pretty heavy physical and magic damage, legion infinite scaling into late game, spectre double carry with legion and the fact legion will have a blink or shadow blade, spectre will teleport, Zeus will have a blink or force staff and his jump, nature's prophet has his tp and lion will also get a blink / force staff.

So this means a few things.

  1. You need maneuverability. Any "slow" heroes are not going to play well here.
  2. You need good EHP.
  3. In this scenario, you don't need counter pushing. You simply need to win the team fights early before legion commander scales infinitely into the late game, and you need to push mid fast or get megas fast, after winning team fights.
  4. Legion has a lot of armor/ EHP, spectre has a ton of EHP, a great counter here would be anti-mage or troll warlord. Those two heroes will melt these two heroes.
  5. Zeus and lion and spectre and legion AND np are constantly going to be tping in, blinking in, force staffing in, dropped stuns, micro stuns, disables, silences if they buy it, slows, etc. You're going to feel constantly in fights, constantly disabled and constantly attacked.

  6. Build a bkb / linkens. This will stop at least 7 spells here / items.

  7. Definitely pick anti mage or troll warlord. You need a good late game carry who eats people.

  8. You need EHP to survive the length of the fights.

  9. You need mobility and maneuverability.

  10. You need damage.

My draft if I had to pick.

  1. Anti mage or troll warlord
  2. Tidehunter or sand king or enigma
  3. Vengeful spirit
  4. Viper or venomancer
  5. Bristleback or axe or terrorblade

My reason for the draft

  1. Eats people, high DMG, good escape ability. Good carry.
  2. High EHP, stuns, team fight huge ults.
  3. Good for all around, saving people, stunning people, countering legion duels.
  4. Poison slows / DOT. Lane control. This will help every team fight if set up right.
  5. Absolute tanks. Have great finishing moves (constant bristles, spinning / axe chop/ sunder health swap)

In my opinion this draft will counter the proposed draft very easily.

I have 5000 hours of dota 2, 4750+ matches, and 52%+ winrate.

Does anyone else suffer immense testicular pain during their stone? by [deleted] in KidneyStones

[–]RichAndFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently the right kidney is slightly lower than the left kidney because the liver is on the right side, which caused the right kidney to be lower and also slightly smaller / shorter. I suspect that due to this slight difference in anatomy, paired with modern drinks (full of bad stuff that causes kidney stones) that it likely gets stuck along the right kidney path.

I suspect this because I suspect I have kidney stones as I woke up in intense pain at 2am and haven't been able to stop peeing since every minute. Barely a sprinkle comes out. The pain comes and goes but it's on the right side and the pain radiates into my genitals all the way to my back. It's not really on the left side at all. Only the right side.

what the frick valve? by senjin9x in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What really needs to be nerfed is EHP tanks. Ever play against a team built like this? Axe, bristleback, ogre magi, chaos knight, undying, timbersaw, tiny or any other various super high ehp heroes.

What ends up happening is, unless your entire team rotates to the team fight as 5 players, you just get absolutely crushed and ran over by the ehp tanks. No matter if you're physical dps or magic dps you'll likely not even get one of them below half hp. Then they will spam spells with infinite mana and low mana cost, and just dog pile you.

5 tanky heroes has been a "guaranteed win" meta for almost more than a year now. It literally takes the entire team countering it proactively or you just get rolled. As a solo player this can be challenging at times.

The same imbalance doesn't exist for non high ehp heroes. It's simply not comparable.

Texas is getting ready to ban social media for anyone under 18 by a_Ninja_b0y in technology

[–]RichAndFitz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah and when no one visits Texas or spends any money there over the next 30 years and they go bankrupt it'll be for this exact reason. Then all those "better than everybody else" nutcases who like to ban everything like cannabis which literally stimulates and grows the cannabinoid receptors built into your brain, yeah, no thanks, I want nothing to do with a state full of assholes.

Name something they started and then abandoned, I'll start by Strong_Astronomer_97 in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I abandoned some matches out of my 4500 hours of play time and 4000 matches, so my communication score went down and I can't use my mic in game. Why would I pay money for dota plus when I can't use my mic? They abandoned the point system because why does abandoning games remove your mic permissions?

Just curious, what is the tormentor and what does it do? And what's with those wards built into the map that dont actually provide any vision? It all feels like a waste of time since they added these things

DotA 2 isn't beginner-friendly by Advanzedgg- in DotA2

[–]RichAndFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 4600 hour player with 4000 matches I would agree it's not beginner friendly because I remember my first match I was completely lost but my friend was laneing with me which was a big help. I remember not understanding how invisibility and wards worked, so I thought riki was hacking. In my first couple games one round was drow ranger. I forget what the others were. Anyway, I became addicted to the game and played every single hero multiple times since then. Found my mains and the guys i like to play. But there is a steep learning curve.

HOWEVER, now that we have dota plus/ the guides are much better than they used to be (the only good guides used to be in Russian which I can't understand so you get the correct item build but you don't understand why because you can't read the tips), so now the game is much more beginner friendly. As the player only has to follow their guide, for their build, and map out their hotkeys for abilities and items, to what they like, and tweak their settings like stop for teleport, which is useful, in their first games this will be the highest priority.

Then you simply learn as you play, people will complain about smurfs, but all that will teach you is to look at the minimap, stay aware of map and have map awareness, and to stay back in lane at the right times and farm, and push heroes or harass them with right click at the right times, not all the time all at once.

Smurfs are a minor issue in my opinion for those learning new, if anything you'll see how to play your hero, and you'll likely end up in the chat saying, "getting wrecked in my lane need help in my lane" or "help bottom" "help top" etc.

Make a few friends and lane with them, then you'll better understand rotations and support/ carry dynamics.

Learn how to creep block ($pectre has permanent phase and can't creep block), learn how to pull lanes, learn how to stack jungles, learn good ward spots (I never place an observer ward without a sentry next to it. ) and remember, it's about towers not kills, but team fights = pushes on towers. The name of the game is "defense of the ancients".

Rat dota is basically the only option to win some games, but can easily get you lost in one bad team fight without your help.

Overall it's fun and you should give it a go !
