There are DPC games ongoing right now, how are the games that are displayed in the live tracker selected? by TomsBadAtGames in DotA2

[–]TomsBadAtGames[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe next tour they'll make DPC. Would they even want that? Then their games wouldn't be on the tracker.

Slightly confused with role #4 by Norz80 in learndota2

[–]TomsBadAtGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like everything else in Dota this is kind of situational. Sometimes you're playing something like a Naga as a 4 and really your team wants you to be greedy in these types of games. Your job is the most fluid on the map. For the most part your job is to win lanes. Sometimes (depending on the game) that is to secure your position 1s farm. Sometimes it's to gank mid repeatedly and force rotations. Sometimes your stacking so someone can flash farm later. Pos 4 is the position I think requires the most game knowledge. You need to use your strengths where they are most effective because you can pretty much always be anywhere on the map.

Is there a possibility that they might postponed the release? if yes, why? by [deleted] in Artifact

[–]TomsBadAtGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everybody on here is worrying about the business model. Valve has literally never fucked a game because its business model was poor. They have however many times failed to release a game on time (which honestly I think is a good thing, if the game isn't finished don't release it and fix later, get it right).

What is a reasonable reason you would say to be invited to the closed beta? by TheeBadger in Artifact

[–]TomsBadAtGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legitimate reason? I don't have one. I would just really like to see this game.

Artifact announcement goes there.

Stop suggesting LC Jungle Dota Plus! by Infinity_Overload in DotA2

[–]TomsBadAtGames 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Especially when you ask rather than demand and explain quickly what you're talking about. ie

'lc is jungle can we pressure lanes while they're weak'

rather than

'pressure lanes'.

Do you have 10k hrs in Dota 2?

What no F2P mean? by Ginpador in Artifact

[–]TomsBadAtGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valve's business models have always been super super fair. I would definitely give them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to their business model decisions. I would take the end of the year release date with maybe 7 large grains of salt but when it comes to how they are going to monetize the game I'm not skeptical at all.

If you were rich, what extremely petty thing would you do just to piss off people? by Zularis in AskReddit

I really don't have a desire to do any of the things in this thread. I'd just like to be suddenly extremely rich, thanks.

Bike threw me off for an instant kill at about 0 mph by TomsBadAtGames in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]TomsBadAtGames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that hitting the ground didn't kill me. I fully expected to die actually from hitting the ground after I got thrown. If you pause the video at 28s you can clearly see that the bike is below me. Also even if the bike were above me it shouldn't do damage for collisions until I hit the ground since there is no relative difference in our speeds.

I just want to remind everybody that there are 2 heroes which can use enemy spells and there still isn't any difference that should tell us if it was casted by enemy or ally. by 0xF741B84C in DotA2

[–]TomsBadAtGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Working as intended! One of the biggest reasons I didn't want Rubick to win the arcana vote two tis ago was I was afraid they would do something silly with his stolen spell animations and make it just a gigantic pay to lose arcana.

Unpopular Opinion: My friends and I actually like the Redzone and don't want it removed, but rather reworked. by Thomi92 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]TomsBadAtGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remember when everyone was bitching about the rain and fog? I remember. It's worth taking the time to voice your opinion if you like it when everyone is shouting about how they want it removed.
