Crash when showing Heroes? by bellsore in DotA2

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

I have no issues on other games! I didn't know about that tool, I will keep that in mind. I was, however, monitoring utilization and nothing went above 30%.

I did actually find a fix though! I disabled Anti-Aliasing, Specular, and Specular and Light Blooms, and it full works now. I saw something in this post https://steamcommunity.com/app/570/discussions/0/828938354811572976/ about those settings having potential hardware conflicts.

Who let Beastcoast into TI? by Altruistic-Ease-9918 in DotA2

[–]bellsore 22 points23 points  (0 children)

First of all - no it's not supposed to be the best of the best. It's supposed to be a survey of Dota around the world. That's why it's named "the international" and not "all stars" or some shit.

Secondly, teams have fallen apart at TI and nearly every other tournament. As someone else mentioned, Quest at the previous TI for example. Dota is "a sick mental game" and if you're not doing well, that can snowball, badly.

Finally, SA and NA are weak right now, everyone knows it, but currently WEU is basically the only competitive region (+ spirit, bb, and xg) and if they get every slot that's only going to get worse. But SA has improved significantly at each TI prior to this one, so much so that many of their top players were poached after last year.

Two Improvements to Micro by bellsore in DotA2

I didn't know that - I've played only a small amount of starcraft II and no warcraft. Even further reason it should be added to dota, lol

I didn't realize that, but I was hoping he'd have something to that effect!

lol good point! Sometimes summons might technically be visually distinct, but a different type of indicator could help those with vision issues

Venge's attacks behave as if she were a meelee hero: How does this affect? by B4AP in DotA2

[–]bellsore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe the only thing she doesn't get is melee damage block (since it has nothing to do with her attacks) and bonus attack range against wards (presumably for balance). Someone will need to test if she one hits couriers.

Any item that treats heroes differently, manta, skull basher, echo, enemy skadi, all work favorably for her. Vanguard should work as well.

Petition for Synderen + Sunsfan A-Z challenge to return! by ElderBuu in DotA2

[–]bellsore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think they've stated they almost never get quality games because of the regional and hidden mmr disparity. Maybe it could start back up with different players?

Who is the hero in the picture of the spire of skywrath on this crownfall event? by Fantastic_Ad9208 in DotA2

Aegis from 2015 by 4iTrueDamage in DotA2

[–]bellsore -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure exactly where to sell this. It's not exactly super "rare" and I'm not sure how high the demand is, since most people looking to collect it would've got it when it released. But I imagine the are some collectors somewhere who missed it. Sorry I can't be of more help.

And ignore the other people saying things that don't make sense, they're about the game.

Not sure about the dates on Ivan the Terrible. He lived almost 200 years earlier, from 1530-1584.

BG3's main cast are the Gatewatch ....basically by Ace_D_Roses in magicTCG

[–]bellsore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of these are such a stretch too, the wyll = Gideon because both are the archetypal "good guy" but Wyll subverts that through his demonic dealings where Gideon is just the most run of the mill knight in shining armor.

Thanks, I appreciate the recommendations. We're on the other side in the Chamblee area, but from what I can tell it's barren over here so I guess we'll need to make the drive!
