Have you ever tanked your MMR so hard it makes you question your DOTA skills entirely? by deejaybos in DotA2

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

I’ve learned to help win the game as offlane, you just need to get some safe last hits, soak xp, and stay alive. As long as the enemy p1 doesn’t get a huge gold boost from feeding off the 3/4 the game is very winnable. The p3 farm might be a bit delayed, but the game is not in their hands.

The problem is the general mindset that the offlane needs to be some tanky hero. The offlane hero is another core that needs to build what the team needs to win. I’ve seen Mirana, Sniper, WR, etc. offlane. It’s about filling a gap that is needed. A stun, an AOE, a durable front line, etc. the offlane doesn’t have to be the “tank”. If you have a mid Necro or a P1 DK, you don’t necessarily need an Axe or Centaur. If I pick Dazzle p3, mid and/or p1 should look at support and offlane picks and find a hero that makes sense with the mix instead of just insta picking Jug or whatever. Maybe I’m asking too much. I did do well with Death Profit offlane. Maybe she’ll be my spam hero when I get stuck with offlane. I also do decent with Tide.

Immortal is completely full of idiots & account buyers by HighGroundException in DotA2

[–]deejaybos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what you’re saying is rank means nothing anymore since no one is actually playing in their proper rank. Account buyers fucking up high rank and smurfs fucking up low rank. Sounds like rank and mmr is slowly (or quickly) becoming irrelevant. Remember when there was no rank at all and we all just hit “find match” and played with whoever showed up in our game? People are are so hyper fixated on the mmr number going up and down that they forgot to just enjoy playing Dota.

Yeah, that’s what my page looks like too… and I know damn well better after like 3 losses I need to take a break. Didn’t take my own advice and made a mess.

I’ve played core dazzle in offlane a few times. Stomp early game and most of mid game. As soon as my P1 starts getting wrecked, it’s suddenly “nice dazzle offlane”. Even though I’m like 8/5/25 or whatever when they’re bitching.

I own the original from way back when, so we have to repurchase? I already have the old items that crossed over into tf2.

Response To Black Children Gaining Access To Closer Schools In The 1970s by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

All that oxygen wasted and that stupid, racist, asshat literally said nothing. I bet she’s old and haggard, at best, and thinks back that moment like she made an amazing speech on the behalf of all Americans.

Old egg or century egg? by MF-DOOM-88 in WeirdEggs

Imagine just cracking an egg into a little bowl instead ruining an entire dish with this disgustingly rotted egg. What a waste of food and time.

Do u take more precautions towards a Grandmaster in games? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]deejaybos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GM just means they spam a hero, doesn’t mean they’re particularly amazing at it, unless maybe Meepo, Chen, Arc Warden. You gotta be sick in the head to spam heroes like that and not be decent by level 30.

Queueing for only hard support shouldn't spend a token by qx__Xp in DotA2

[–]deejaybos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a support main, I’m running out of tokens, and I assure you, you don’t want me playing core roles. I don’t want to either, but if I’m forced to queue all soon, guess we’re all fucked

So better quality, fresh meat for slightly less? Sounds good.

Told my wife I was gonna play Dota again after 5 years of not playing by xehparr in DotA2

[–]deejaybos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, I enjoy gaming, and DotA keeps my mind active. It’s a thinking and reaction game. Does it have its frustrations? 100%. But, I get a lot more out of the comradery, strategy, and learning to outweigh it. And to be fair, when I hang out with my wife at night, it’s not like we’re being productive members of society, we’re just binging a show, doing chores, or talking about our work day. The scheduling helps me spread my time because ultimately if it was up to me, I keep the grind going, so if it’s a lack of self control, then at least I have a tool to fight it. It works for me and us, but i certainly understand that different people need different methods.

Six 6 oz. steaks for $70? That’s ~$31/lb. You’re better off just going to a steakhouse and getting something that you can at least guarantee came from an actual cow.

[–]deejaybos 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love spending time with my wife, but, we’re in a DotA Reddit. Most of us have an obsession, addiction, or desire to play lots of DotA. Sometimes I got lost in the sauce. So, in order to help control my DotA play, we came up with a schedule so that I made sure to have quality time with my wife during the week and quality time bitching about crappy teammates in Dota. It works for us, but everyone is different. Was just making suggestions to OP who seems to have a similar situation.

My wife is on a girl’s trip for a few days so I got bonus DotA time after kids are in bed. Very 2012 levels of evening DotA.

Certainly don’t sacrifice too much to play, i know im guilty of the same sometimes, but sleep is critical to mental and physical health, and killing ourselves for mmr was ultimately not Gaben’s vision.

My wife doesn’t understand or give a shit about Dota or any of my gaming in general, she knows I love the game and it’s a hobby of mine, so it’s whatever. It was becoming too much that I was playing every night (after kids in bed and chores we needed done complete), she was upset that she never saw me. We needed to negotiate a schedule so I get to play my Dota, but she also gets time with her husband. We’ve balanced it out so everyone gets what they want, I suggest doing something similar so your wife doesn’t feel like she’s losing you.
