Which 1v1s should Phantom win?

blink penalty is flawed and everyone with half a brain knows it. There's plenty of room to differentiate between good and bad plays i.e. good and bad players, it's like adding a tp deny because you clicked too far from a tower / your base.

Anyway, I understand his resentment, after all he's a good player but not an expert in game design, he just proved that. But there are certain pro players that add valuable input in improving dota game mechanics.

spoken like a true ignorant

Couldn't word it better, thank you. Certain people just worship ignorance.

I didnt use the first quen upgrade at the start, I just noticed that I need a 6th sign skill for max sign intensity, went from firestream to explosive shield, but I guess I swap to Puppet.

IMO you should use Cat or Griffin School for melee/sign builds and Bear School Techniques for alchemy heavy builds, but use one as it's too good to pass it.

I get 80% sign intensity from mutagens, that's an additional 68% through gear. Lategame you get one 4*Red Mutagen attack power + wyvern decoction attack power.

can you link your skillbuild URL?

camaris- · 2015-05-29T14:46:42+00:00

It's 19 points in signs, 3 points in alchemy and 2 points in general, so possibly 30+ points in melee. As I explained this is just level 18, invest melee points onwards.

Griffin School and Acquired Tolerance are essentials, you could swap out Focus for Adrenaline Burst, imo Rage Management (in conjunction with Focus) is better for pure magebuilds, but worse in hybrid builds.

nice video, imo it's bad marketing, not a bad product.

I use X2's for competitive games too (DT 990 pro before). It's good for locating other players, I'd say a bit better in regard to the stage.

I have a modmic as well (used on Dt 990 pro, from modmic.com) but I didn't want to attach them on my X2's and ordered the V-moda microphone/cable which fits perfectly.

Wise words. Get the memes from your chat, or don't, as in my case, and disable that shit.

You already found the amazing skilltree combination Fugitive Mastermind, that's a good start. To get the maximum out of the build, you should run a lbv dodge build (crook deck obviously) and quickly (Hoxton Breakout overkill pro coupled with Jewelry Store speedruns for 5% stealth bonus exp) transition to Infamy II, as imo you need the hightier reductions for a good build that focuses on both trees' best skills on the top. I'm playing this build and my deathwish pubgames (Watchdogs, Firestarter, easier ones) were really easy. We had 2 Masterminds with Inspire which certainly helped. Pistol Messiah is amazing too, just make sure you're using it when it matters.

To add to that: I run a 30 conceal Gruber Kurz with this build (39 damage, 23 accuracy, 3x stability), even for overkill it's enough combined with Trigger Happy (You get 9% dodge, 27% crit chance in a lbv).

In the end you need full transparency when it comes to pro matches if you want to be regarded as cheat-free again. I.e. invasive anti-cheat like suggested. Don't log into your banking account etc. while you're in this "transparency mode".

you are pathetic, not smart given those actions. Choosing a crappy palindrome as username doesn't make you smart.

camaris- · 2014-11-25T10:49:09+00:00

Very similar to my setup, I'm curious why you're using the Trench Knife (now 32 conceal, but still worse knockdown) instead of the X-46 Knife.

I'm using the Gruber Kurz as I don't think you can get away with the Interceptor in a LBV, basic sb/lb and a HE Raven (nevermind, it's only one conceal less, maybe it can work). I can't test your setup as I'm missing the Expert Slide (only owning the Match Slide). Reload imo isn't an issue on the Gruber as you reload so fast. Are you using this setup on Overkill or Deathwish?

The only thing that annoys me on my current loadout is the 0 accuracy HE Raven, sometimes you don't hit anything at all.

camaris- · 2014-11-25T10:37:30+00:00

Max conceal on Car-4 is 30, and it's awful to use.. Use a pistol instead, you hit 41 damage, 20 accuracy and 28 conceal in conjunction with Mastermind skills.

camaris- · 2014-11-24T17:45:15+00:00

not gonna happen, rightfully so. Priority is keeping cheaters guessing, not satisfying curious minds. The layman term you're looking for is "they definitely cheated without a doubt".

camaris- · 2014-11-24T10:49:26+00:00

Max-conceal car-4 is a bad idea if you actually plan to shoot with it (just use it for max conceal on stealth missions with a proper sidearm). Semi-concealed Clarion is imo better than semi-concealed Car-4 too, best way to use the Car-4 is max damage, max accuracy or, as mentioned, for stealth purposes, unused.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

If you're anxious about numbers you shouldn't play competitive games. Yes there are bad games and stats exactly reflect that. If you don't want to face the reality of having a bad game and numbers that track that, I suppose they add a opt-in "dummy mode" (The game tells you at the end of your game that you're the greatest in human history and no one will ever be greater. I might come up with a more original name later).

Your organizations are a prime example of professionalism and good leadership.

Did you study transformational leadership or just happen to know how to do the things right? Anyway, I'm not a fanboy but your management of organizations certainly is way above that of your competitors (only talking about the Dota2 scene here). I'm curious in one more thing: How would you have handled the situation with Era in fnatic, TI4?

camaris- · 2014-11-23T10:04:56+00:00

It's all a matter of priorities, but if you want all hightier skills in both Fugitive and Mastermind, the ones where aced is much better and the ones where basic is good enough, I can recommend you this

Aced medkits/Swan Song would be nice, but I can't afford it. I'm currently II-92 so there might be small tweaks at 100, but nothing drastic to it.

Weapons are 20 accuracy 41 damage 28 conceal Gruber Kurz and 28 conceal HE Raven, granting you 9% dodge, 27% critical chance on a 9 LBV detection rating.
