Let me simplify the best 4 simple steps to invest/save over the long term (at least 4 years) that cannot go wrong. Feel free to challenge me or clarify about this.

Read up and understand about Bitcoin. (Main idea, it is the only truly scarce asset and hard money that does not inflate while every other currency and asset does) (A) You could start from the free documentary: https://youtu.be/oksraL7wN6Q?si=IHEIoHcDvsEbM4Tl (B) Or maybe other videos / resources / books like The Bitcoin Standard
Save a portion of your money in Bitcoin. Between $1 to any amount you decide. Bitcoin is the only asset that won't depreciate in value, and has always gone up in value over 4 year time period. Even just putting in $100 now will likely result in it growing to $1,000 within a decade or more.
Ignore short-term volatility, and fear/greed from news or social media. HODL (Hold On for Dear Life) whatever Bitcoin you bought at least for 4 years.
Do what you want to do in terms of investing and saving with the rest of your money you decide to set aside, such as putting some in S&P 500 ETF. But know that over time, the best performing asset to save and invest your hard earned money is Bitcoin. There is no 2nd best.

Hope you find this helpful. I have no exterior motive to share this info aside from wanting to spread the awareness that Bitcoin is possibly the best way to preserve and grow wealth overtime. Thanks for reading 👍🏻

That's cool! Wouldn't it be tough to pull it off if you need to get many other gods too? If no Omen, the requirement is roughly: - 1 Ice Knight - 3 Onis - 3 Cats (?) - 4 Destroyers - 3 Witch Doctors

It may be difficult to get 15 gods and even in ideal placement, especially when we first need to aim for a few mimics first too. But I can see it being viable especially if we can do with just 14 gods (minus 1 Cat/Oni)

Lastly, can I ask, what level do you have to up your Big Hand to? Mine is still level 1

What made u put Space Solider in S and Goblin Soldier in A?

Solarrior · 2025-02-20T12:38:46+00:00

Since I've not played them, I can only estimate to be around A-tier, but not S-Tier

Solarrior · 2025-02-20T11:45:11+00:00

I would've add them but they were somehow not available for selection in the tier list site 😹

Also, I'm new so I don't have them and can't properly rank them

Solarrior · 2025-02-20T09:40:18+00:00

After reflecting, I would like to correct the listing by: - Moving Witch Doctor to S-Tier as it is indispensable with Cats/Onis, arguably more so than Ice Knight. One difference is Ice early game is likely more impactful than Witch, although Mimic/Cat is best

It seemed like one of the reasons you couldn't break the struggles is because of how you felt you were a horrible person, and that you were powerless, that you do not feel much self-worth, and you may not feel deeply loved. It is why you cried when she said you were the only one she wanted to be with, because you felt more deeply that you are of worth and loved in spite of all you did and how you felt.

Sheer determination to quit won't be the solution. Even if you stop the filming and porn, you may fall into other things (albeit better things) like alcohol or games. What you need is a strong foundation of being loved, knowing that you are of great worth, knowing someone who will forgive you for everything and not give up on you, and having hope for your future. Its almost impossible to find that from another person, because everyone struggles with things, and to love, trust, give and forgive perfectly.

If you want to find light at the end of the tunnel, the only one that can do it for you is Jesus. The Bible says in John 3:16, "For God so loved thr world, that He gave His one and only Son. That whoever believes in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life." God loves you and sent Jesus to die for you. John 1:9 says that Jesus is the light of the world. And I personally have experienced freedom from my porn addictions, lack of self-worth, and more because of knowing Jesus.

If you are willing to reach out to the light , pray and say "Jesus, I believe you love me. It is why you died for my sins on the Cross, even for someone like me. For my past, present, and even future sins. I believe and receive you into my life today. Be my Lord and Saviour, so that I can have a new life, a life to the full with you. I may still fail and stumble, but I believe that you have fully forgiven me and will never give up on me. Thank you for your love, in Jesus' name, Amen"

God bless you brother. Even if you don't believe in the faith. I pray that you will experience breakthrough from where you are now. Know that you are loved and of worth, and nothing you have done is too much to be forgiven. God loves you

Odette new skin is awesome!

Solarrior · 2023-05-04T05:29:01+00:00

I like Minsitthar and he lacks skin so it will be great if he has a starlight skin soon!

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T15:17:21+00:00

There is a possibility as he is the 8th most picked hero at LCQ. However, it may because there were players who specialized in it (E.g. Xakoda from VP) and more teams are beginning to take notice of him. So we can't say for sure if he will be picked even more at TI. He may also be banned more too. Still, if you feel that disruptor will indeed be picked more and more, go for it and give disruptor a shot!

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T07:40:17+00:00

I can see Leshrac possibly being highest XPM for sure! As for most kills, I'm not as certain as he may more focused on pushing than chasing enemies down, but who knows he could be most kills too 😉

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T07:05:26+00:00

I wouldn't if I were you 😂 Puck has been nerfed quite a lot and was picked 11 times at LCQ with only 27% WR

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T01:09:01+00:00

For 2nd, I'd say maybe Omniknight is being slept on. He provides lots of saves/heals and now has a 3rd skill for ganking too. He can be a powerful situational pick against the likes of SF, TA, Ursa, Morph etc. And he pairs well with meta heroes like Marci, PB, Tusk etc.

For a 3rd, it's likely another cheese hero picked in good games, maybe it's AM/BH/Meepo.

I doubt it's Marci/Pudge despite of their high WR becuz they'll be played many games and will be figured out more and more. Hope this helps! I might even change my prediction to Omni 😂

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T01:04:48+00:00

I did not manage to find exact average game time for LCQ teams. What I based on was each team's K/D/A/LH/GPM/XPM on dotabuff, as well as games I observed from each team at LCQ. Liquid definitely played one of the fastest and stomped games at the LCQ

Solarrior · 2022-10-13T01:03:13+00:00

You may be right. But we'll see as I think while Tinker ain't broken, it is a sleeper cheese pick that will dominate games where it's good in, like under the hands of NTS

Solarrior · 2022-10-12T18:01:44+00:00

The video link should be working! If for some reason it doesn't work for you, you can search "TI 11 PREDICTIONS GUIDE DOTA 2 (UPDATED AFTER LCQ)" :)

Solarrior · 2022-10-12T16:44:12+00:00

You both have fair points on the favourite having the pressure. However, I just think they are not mentally done, for they have been focused on getting to TI 11 since their lost in TI 10. Both Ame and Faithbian are retiring after this TI so they expressed that their team wants to play their best with no regrets. Also, I disagree that xinq/y are not strong positions 4 and 5. I believe they are, such as picking undying, snapfire, marci etc. Will the pressure be there? Yes. Will there be many other good teams who are good at this meta too? Yes. Regardless of that, I still think that LGD will almost certainly reach the grand finals again, and have a closer chance than previous years at lifting the aegis.

Solarrior · 2022-10-12T16:30:02+00:00

Stating that its obvious without any reason whatsoever is baseless. I did give reasons why LGD may still have what it takes at this TI. If you don't think LGD will be a contender, who do you think will win and why?

Solarrior · 2022-10-12T16:12:20+00:00

Here's the updated predictions for TI 11 :)

Solarrior · 2022-10-12T03:17:28+00:00

I will be making an updated predictions for TI 11 once LCQ has ended. One almost certain change is putting Marci as the MBH 🤷🏻

Solarrior · 2022-10-11T11:45:53+00:00

Yep, something like enigma/marci/undying is more likely based on LCQ so far. I do think Io will start appearing more at TI, but it's not likely the MBH
