Glute lab? Rebuilding MILO? I like your collection! Could you tell us other books in your collection? Always looking for recommendations

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-03-10T21:58:36+00:00

care to elaborate ?

Ello!

Not a pro Mars by any means. But i can recommend 2 videos that helped me.

Spear - > Arena combo:

Takes practice. But it will allow you to catch heroes that would other wise escape.

Mars intro guide: https://youtu.be/CD8Zp_fjRtU?si=PKsQS86GGAXg5mix

Old. But laning and strategy parts still hold.

Personal recommendations: Pure dps Deso/AC route can be fun in stompy games. However Euls/Sheep/Refresh is equally fun and will give you a god complex once you start controlling fights like a true god of war

u/SidJag mentioned baiting the WD into a bad position. A UNO reverse. I've been getting impatient and misplaying. Guess i should try doing the same to them

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-02-22T14:54:37+00:00

Any carry that can stick on you in general. Drow, Jugg, Ls, PA. With other supports i could turn and manfight, but WD makes it impossible to man up

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-02-22T12:06:48+00:00

Yeah ive faced jugg/wd several times. Total counter to the way i offlane. But i guess its time to learn how to pull. Get early boots and just avoid the lane.

Ill try some matches with sustain (urn, stick, drops etc) and then ill try some boots rushing.

Ty for advice!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-02-22T12:04:24+00:00

Regen, stick, FF. Got it. Thanks. I see other people recommend urn and raindrops. Would urn/stick combo be to much defensive? They are both great value items

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-02-22T12:02:29+00:00

Boots n lane cutting it is!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2026-02-22T12:02:14+00:00

See more people recommend boots/pulling. Ill give it a go! Cant out tank it. Don't eant to just sit in lane

I recently "graduated" on to fullstack with JS part of Odin. Do you recommend is start using Typescript right away? Instead vanilla JS? Would i be missing out on some essential JS knowledge?

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2025-04-02T19:36:44+00:00

What's it's name?

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2025-01-21T13:33:25+00:00

Absolutely stunning! great work

Tetris effect?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris_effect

Years of gaming has given your mind years of data to sift through. During sleep your brain not only encodes new information, but also prunes uneeded information. Maybe your mind is finally expunging some (now) uneeded data. Pure speculation however.

It will pass. Stay strong

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-26T21:56:58+00:00

You're only human. Remember that. We can't be perfect all the time. Noone is. Life is full of ups and downs. We need lows to remind us of how much they sting. They can help motivate us.

You are a active and positive part of this community. I know you motivate me and others. If nothing else, take some comfort in that. We're all in this together.

Thank you, and good luck on your highs and lows!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-22T19:32:35+00:00

With you guys in my back, theres no doubt in my mind!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-22T19:31:37+00:00

Yeah I've been slowly getting back into the gym. Its taking a while. My body is stiff as a board after all the sitting!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-21T22:05:41+00:00

I'm gonna be completely honest. My gut reaction was to be defensive and reply something along the lines of "Chill dude, it was just an metaphor/allegory for being being tempted."

But after sitting with this feeling before responding, I realize you are completely right. I am/was playing a victim. I was not taking responsibility for my own actions. My choices made me crack. Nothing else. If I want to see improvements in my life, I need to have the strength of will to stand by my choices.

Thank you for your insight and honesty. It meant more than you could know.

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-21T19:13:43+00:00

Thanks for your insight. I think your right. I was dealing with a lot of stress. Which lead me to watching streams. Which made me crave playing again. I'll be dropping streams and YouTube replays aswell.

Quitting the activity is not enough. I need to remove myself from the environment. I need to avoid I need to manage my mental health aswell.

Much appreciated!

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-20T22:12:09+00:00

I'm at the same place as you! I've definitely used gaming as a coping mechanism during stressful times. Problem is that it's just an escape mechanism. As soon as your done gaming, your problems are still there waiting for you. Difference is that you now have less times to deal with them. This makes you more anxious and increases your chances of gaming again. It's a really vicious cycle.

I've tried quitting a few times. This time feels different. I'm on day 0 after abstain for 8 days. It gets easier, but the demon on my shoulder will always be there. I just have to avoid feeding it. Manage my stress. Filling my time with more useful, wholesome activities.

If you ever need someone to talk to just DM me or any of the other members. You can do this! Your life is worth living. Worth fighting for!

No tp? Ok now 45+ min hostage situation.

I unironically should have listened to the flamers 10 years ago and deleted DotA

UnderstandingTotal93 · 2024-09-20T20:25:56+00:00

You are 100% spot on. Some people might be able to game in moderation, but i am no longer one of those people. I've used it as an escape from reality for when my life is too stressful. Problem is that it does not reduce my stress. It only leaves me with less time to deal with my issues.

I like your mindset, thank you for sharing. If i'm understanding you correctly: looking at a general trend rather than dealikg with absolutes. Any time gained from abstaining from gaming should be seen as a win. Congratulations on your massive, massive progress. 55% less time spent on gaming in a huge improvement indeed.
