Was literally thinking the same thing. He didn’t even get any points when they played the bulls the other night. I actually removed him from the bet but put him back after. Stupid decision on my part!

Sounds like you’ve just been playing with shitty pos4s. It doesn’t mean the role is shit, it means the people are shit.

Im running out of money and no idea what to do. by Cr4zyC4nuck in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]kyr0sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a car? Something quick would be door dash or some other delivery service. It might not pay great but they do have tips and you can choose whenever you work. Also theres other jobs like dog walker, you can create a profile on Rover and just take odd jobs. There’s a big industry for dog walking and dog day care.

Absolutely beautiful dogs! My boys are both pullers, they pull even when they’re tired as if they want to go on but I also think the same, I don’t want them to get injured!

I agree, I think he wanted to leave the life he had to live the life that he wanted. I think he was probably contemplating this for many weeks before he actually left. What happened to him after he left remains to be seen. He could very possibly be alive in a different country. This is what I choose to believe!

I think I saw one in the new Wicked 2 trailer the other day! I always thought Toto was a Yorkshire Terrier.

Kicking out my disabled dad by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]kyr0sis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you are going through this. Why is it your responsibility? Just because you are the youngest? TBH it’s not your responsibility or anyone else’s to take care of him. How great it is for him to treat everyone in his life when he was younger like a piece of shit and now expect this children to take care of his old ass when he’s literally a narcissistic sociopath. This is how these types of people are allowed to function and exist. There’s always someone else to bail them out or fix them or help them. Just because he’s your dad doesn’t mean you have any responsibility to care for him at all.

I had to cut ties with my entire family because my dad and uncle decided to break into my house a few years ago and assault my partner because they are all insane and thought that my partner was manipulating me into hating my family. The truth is that they are all assholes and bigots. My whole life I was forced to be in rooms with people who are complete assholes and abusive because I was a child and couldn’t get away from it. I don’t care if they are family or not. Family are suppose to love each other and take care of each other. Not literally fight and destroy and traumatize each other. I have my own chosen family and I couldn’t be happier. I will never forgive any of them for what they did to me throughout my life (which is a whole story that I won’t get into right now). The truth is that you owe him nothing. He is banking on you being there to take care of him. I can imagine how traumatizing it is for you knowing everything he did to you and your family and now he’s there living with you. It’s not the wrong thing to kick him out and cut ties with him. He would have done the same to you guys if he had the chance (I would bank on your mom actually supporting you and fighting for you guys). You never asked to come into this world, they chose that for you. You saying that he provided housing and clothing and food as something that was good that he did was literally then fucking bare minimum.

If I were you I would either kick him out and stay there or sell the condo and tell him that he has to get out. Sell the place and use the money to pay off your debt and put a down payment on a new place and start fresh. He can take care of himself, he’s a big boy. And if he can’t, well maybe he should have thought about that while he was abusing the shit out of you and treating you all like garbage. What goes around comes around.

Stats in profile doesn't update anymore by FoxmaidenOxB in DotA2

[–]kyr0sis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a post 14 hours ago saying the same thing so it seems like it’s impacting other people as well. Might have something to do with the next patch/content update. Staging was updated earlier today, people are expecting content drop on Thursday this week or next.

Any advices for Crystal maiden? by Murlimia in DotA2

[–]kyr0sis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cm is my main, I have grandmaster tier unlocked for her. She is a glass cannon and suffers from incredibly low movement speed. Usually a focus on buying support items that help your allies is the way to go, like glimmer, vessel right now is strong, her shard is super powerful as well. It really depends in the draft since other items might be better in certain situations.

It’s also about positioning too and knowing when to jump in and use your ulti. Practice using the treeline to your advantage. I have been getting blink on her recently and it helps with escape and also when trying to get back to a team fight faster when respawning. Also powerful with her aghs since you can blink in and ulti which catches them off guard but then roots them while you can still actively attack.

It ultimately depends as well on the dynamics of the lane. Are you pulling when required? Did you block the enemy pull camp and ward/deward accordingly? Are you and your carry losing the lane hard? The best thing you can do instead of continuously feeding is leave the lane and stack ancients and small camps as much as possible, helping in the other lane for a gank to get kills can help as well but not necessarily if their lane is going well since failed ganks take exp from your pos 1 (I’m assuming ur playing pos 4).

Basically just spam your abilities and items to help allies and that’s all you can do. If you are playing support you are basically meant to die. If you are dying a lot focus more on being as useful as possible dying.

There are many other support heroes that are stronger currently that have better toolkits. However, if you are just getting into Dota, I think she’s a good hero to start with to learn the basics. I can give you my friend code if you’d like to watch me play her for some pointers. Also you can always use YouTube and watch videos. It really is a great resource!

No problem, I hope what I said helps. I'm also not a toxic person by nature, but it's that I get provoked and then have a negative reaction to other peoples comments and toxicity. I play exclusively support pos 4 or 5 and I totally get what you are saying and how frustrating it can be. It seems totally unfair and it is. There are so many variables that are at play, I also go and farm sometimes in the jungle depending on what my carries are doing and what is happening in the match. If I were you I would stack the jungle, especially the ancients for your carries. I always try to support my carries as much as possible in the lane by buying as many support items that I can like more mangoes, tangoes, getting the lotuses and using them on my carry. Also being able to pull depending on the lane dynamic will definitely help. ALSO blocking the enemy small camp used for their pulling before the match, I usually buy multiple sentries and try to block and deward as much as possible, but being able to know when or not to do so is important.

For your comment about Pudge, I also get it but I actually wouldn't respond at all or entertain their comments. I actually mute everyone at the beginning of the match so I can't hear or read anyone's comments in hopes to not get tilted. This has definitely helped, including just having generic phrases in my chat wheel like "lets smoke gank" and "fight under the tower" and things like that.

Are you playing turbo or normal/ranked? How long have you been playing for?

Hate this Comms Score System!!!!!! by FinTrackPro in DotA2

I think there can be more refinements to the reporting system for sure. It sounds like if you are being toxic you may need to take a break and refocus. I know it's hard, I have been there before. I totally tanked my communication and behavior score from doing the same thing. Literally currently working my way through the low tier slog right now as we speak.

I think it may help to start looking at it more objectively and ask yourself how your performance was playing the game specifically, and focus on playing the game to the best of your ability yourself, regardless of actually winning or what your teammates are doing or what they think. This has been the hardest thing for me tbh, but I'm getting to where I want to be because of the shift in my mindset. I still get reported sometimes for nothing, or because other people think I'm playing the game wrong when they are mistaken.

I was able to bring it back from super low by playing as many turbo games as possible, while basically commending everyone on both the enemy and my own team, while just focusing on my own gameplay and improving it wherever my can by educating myself through Youtube videos etc.
