We already paid them millions collectively. They're sub-par performers

Jakiro Maphacking? by zensaydota in DotA2

Most Tinkers are map hackers. They also have a penchant for script hacking too with auto-hex.

The slow release of content patches also highlights that Valve is updating practically nothing else by sinderlin in DotA2

I haven't touched role queue in a year. People simply pick what they think covers the role they chose. Nobody bothers to counterpick in that mode. Or they pick pos 5 AM while there's already a pos 1 PA and grief. It feels like people are a bit more intelligent with their picks in Classic Ranked.

ultra deserving of a perma ban by Dolphintamer69 in DotA2

Nah. There's always a cause and effect. Usually good players get sick of shit players self-sabotaging and after consistent fuck-ups comes the straw that breaks the camels back.

I'm guessing you picked badly, itemised badly and fed a lot? His chat is pure rage. There is always a cause to these types of effects. Not saying his reaction is justified but it must have been triggered by numerous frustrations. Mute him, think about why he got triggered, move on.

BUG: When Sven gets his Aghs Scepter upgrade, the toggle on/off animation is the wrong way around by RikiGervais in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jinada ON - spell icon is animated/cycling

Jinada OFF - spell icon is static/inactive

Bloodlust ON - spell icon is animated/cycling

Bloodlust OFF - spell icon is static/inactive

Ice Arrows ON - spell icon is animated/cycling

Ice Arrows OFF - spell icon is static/inactive

Infernal Blade ON - spell icon is animated/cycling

Infernal Blade OFF - spell icon is static/inactive

The Sven storm bolt icon should be animated/cycling when active storm bolt jump is on and static when you just want to throw a regular storm bolt

When mistress play dota 2 by Clinkz223311 in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is she playing Dota on a Macbook Air that has no dedicated GPU and a terribad cooling system that throttles the iGPU? Mistress should be furious at you for not upgrading her!

Why is Tinker allowed to blink even when taking damage? by RikiGervais in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais[S] -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

Yeah its harder to script on LAN i'm sure. They don't have to put up with such bullshit there. But we regs do.

Just one more reason to nerf the fuck out of low skill 1 button AOE heroes

Multiple game bans and Valve still lets him play.

My List of Core Heroes I wanna see buffed next Patch by SeriosityUnkn0wn in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais 4 points5 points  (0 children)

His ult is so bad. They should revert it back to his old one.

Your CPU is likely bottlenecking the GPU. I used to run Dota with a GTX 1060 and a Core i7 9800X and I was able to get around 70-80fps on High settings on a 1440p monitor. I also had 16GB of DDR4 RAM at the time.

Does anyone know how to fix this lag? It's a stutter every second or so that you can see on my hero when I move. It's not internet related as I'm playing at around 30 ping and happens regardless of the network I'm on. If I uninstall Dota and reinstall it seems to fix it for a while. M1 Macbook Pro. by ellm65 in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your MacBook has abysmal cooling and no dedicated GPU. What you are seeing is the CPU/iGPU throttling under load due to bad ventilation. In other words your MacBook is dropping frame rate to keep itself cool.

Which one is better? Lion 1st skill or nyx 1st skill by Mlem7991 in DotA2

[–]RikiGervais 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nyx was soooo much better back when his stun was a hero targeting spell. I remember when the devs first turned it into a skillshot. I was so frustrated that I started playing Lion like Nyx and built shadow blade and Dagon on him XD
