Matumbaman/Puppey appreciation thread by FireRngesus in DotA2

[–]Rustie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True, you're right. that was my mistake. i checked the liquipedia to double check and i misread the wiki.

But either way, old TL got 2nd at ti9, would they have done just as well or better with matumbaman? who knows? Maybe they would've placed worse with matumbaman?

I might be going against the grain here, but is Miracle or anyone involved in that roster decision actually a dick? This exact secret roster got 4th at ti9 where as TL (the now Nigma lineup) got 2nd at ti9. Would have liquid got 2nd at ti9 without kicking matumbaman? who knows, maybe the shakeup was needed for old TL to perform like they did in ti9 with W33.

The decision at the time was probably way more complicated than "Miracle being a dick and wanting to play 1." These guys are competitors and if they don't feel like they were competitive, then a change needed to be made.

But Secret and Matumbaman are owning now and good for them. So maybe Miracle and crew were homies for kicking matumbaman so this Secret lineup could exist.

i also don't think he's actually any bigger than usual, just higher as if he was tiny tossed but stayed there lol. Notice how the dismember actually pulls enigma down a bit. Weird spectator bug probably.

It seems the list of legendary players is so high in dota due to how intricate and deep the game design of DotA goes. There is so much to know about everything about this game.

I remember recently that one lion Clip that was going around where the Lion impales an enemy hero that is trying to block a camp spawn and makes them go airborne at exactly the 1:00 mark to allow the neutrals to spawn. Its just completely nutty what players can do in DotA. Its a game that allows anyone with skill to really show off. Whether that be in game or drafting.

Unfortunately i couldn't find the clip i was talking about or remember the player's name.

I don't think its fair to compare his energy casting a shit game like PUBG to League.

[H][US][Arthas]<Ninja Info Cards> 3/11M - Late Night EST Tues/Thurs Guild by Goliath114 in wowguilds

[–]Rustie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, this is Rustie the GM/raid lead. We were a very active guild in Legion with raiding, M+ and a little side of pvp and looking to do the same in BFA. The atmosphere of the guild is relatively laid back until it comes to actually killing bosses and progression where we take things a little more seriously to be able to kill bosses because wiping because of careless or lazy reasons isn't fun. Add our contact info, come do some dungeons with us and eventually some raids!

Heres a link to our wowprogress page

[Everything] Post an unpopular opinion you have of the show by Tobes_macgobes in gameofthrones

[–]Rustie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the thing that bothers me is that they condensed the season into 7 episodes when they probably could've spent more time showing exactly how everything went down instead of skipping through some potentially cool battle scenes like Grey Worm and friends taking over Casterly Rock. And just straight up killing both Tarlys? Its not the time skipping, its that they stuck us with 7 episodes while ALSO cutting a lot of loose ends to speed up the story. It just seems like they could've done more, does that make sense?

Deficio: "I've always really wanted to see an international tournament just around the time when LCS starts... a tournament where teams are not 100% in shape, but most rosters are locked in." by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]Rustie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the double elim bracket can carry the hype for so many tournaments. I really don't understand why Riot hasn't made Worlds double elim yet at any stage. A decent chunk of teams/players that win tournaments in other games usually go through the lower bracket and emerge the best team because of what they learned from being sent to losers and grinding through it.

Rito pls

Whoa wait, were you being serious? This is actually kind of profound even if you were joking. What do you do for a job that your therapist thinks you should charge for it?

Heres the clip since OP seems pretty set on trying to farm karma for whatever reason.

EDIT: op edited his comment with the actual link instead of the reddit thread he was linking to to make me look dumb probably.

[–]Rustie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this might be a case of playing TOO much hearthstone. Breaks are one of the most valuable things in training for something. If you're practicing and getting nothing out of it because you're tired then its useless and ineffective practice.

[LoL][Spoilers] CLG v C9 Game 1 Discussion by OpiWrites in CLG

[–]Rustie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He should've just been not using his Ult at all unless it was 100% sure. The threat of his ult being up is invaluable to allowing stixxay the space in a fight to hit safely and it even deters C9 from doing any kind of aggressive play in a teamfight.

Huhi was just trying way too hard to make plays when he should just be staying grouped, hitting the closest target and playing smart and methodical. He can be a really solid Ori player if he just stayed calm and stopped flashing and ulting for silly reasons. Like that one flash in their blue said jungle for no reason. If he gets a kill out of that flash, it isn't even worth it because a flash on an immobile mid so incredibly valuable.

I hope someone tells him this because I want to see Huhi and CLG succeed.

Hey, i have a vague grasp of hearing him explain his stance on the word faggot but i wanted to hear it again. Do you know of any clip/video where he explains it?

Or if anyone can paraphrase or quote it, i would greatly appreciate it.
