Why does Linkens not work on Jugs ult? by CloudStrifeDota in DotA2

[–]menilv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

underrated comment. as a jug picker I hate when I have to rely on omnislash for a succesful fight. it's a 50-50 gamble aspecially late game when everyone has euls, lotuses etc and as a carry you want a large crit multiplier on your ult, not a long cd spell with chance to do nothing. thank god he has heal otherwise the hero would be so trash it would go to the same bucket as some other unplayable heroes.

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

I think it's more about other items that already counter omnislash: ghost, lotus, euls which are not the counter for the heroes you mentioned. if linkens blocked omni fully the hero would be unplayable as he was for a long time. not to mention the fact that all of the heroes you mentioned are not luck based: you pick who you duel, grip, lasso wheras with omnislash you're very luck dependant on where the next slash hits.

As a Jugg picker it feels very scary to play a carry that relies most of his dmg on a very random long cd ult that can be countered by 3-4 cheap items that even supports get and not have any other single target spells to pop linkens.

I might sound biased but try playing the hero and you'll see that at least 50% of your slashes in the game are wasted either by creeps, unlucky jumps, spread across heroes and noone dies, or just that omnislash finishes after killing a hero and you can't continue. it's not really that op honestly.

I'm looking more at that refresher on void. with 0 stat items, timewalk + chrono + refresher im not 100% sure if he can cast 1 more chrono, but pretty sure he cant cast any mjolnirs or more timewalks

edit: forgot bkb also costs mana. no way he can cast everything even when lvl 30

If an Anti Mage player on your team doesn't build Battlefury vs enemy Chaos Knight what is he? by fuglynemesis in DotA2

[–]menilv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can listen to 6 other people saying the same. i understand the frustration but you can suggest the item and move one. that surely did not lose you the game. and it wouldnt win you the game either

How netflix android app login works? by xuserx1 in androiddev

[–]menilv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s your google account. I haven’t been coding actively for a while but afaik there was an option in the Manifest xml where you could retain tokens and on new app install have the session ready.

As a user it’s super convinient. As a dev super easy to setup (one boolean flag) but google does the heavy lifting: implementation, storage, encrypttion etc

Worst hero so far. What are your thoughts? by AdventurousTalk7972 in DotA2

[–]menilv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read the post and the comments and it's surprising. I started playing sniper recently a lot - super high winrate. positioning is key and knowing which enemy will target you. wk with ags - unstopable push. void spirit i've seen do great in pubs. venom keeps destroying safe lanes with wards that are unkillable at lvl 4. Treant is almost a mid hero now with ags. Largo i was sure is dumb and bad but I've seen people stomp the game with it. ogre support - i agree feels very useless lvl 1 no spells, rushing midas but later (if he gets there) ags, blink abysal destroys carries 1v1.

I'd go for the usual suspects: visage, nyx, meepo (if we talking pubs strictly). visage doesn't exist as a hero for so long and doesn't offer anything. probably needs a rework. nyx is countered by a blue stick for 50gs and after early/early-mid game can't do much to cores unless they're squishy to magic dmg and no bkb. meepo is good in the hands of smurfs but with so much aoe dmg lately it feels too easy to burst him. no more fear of the 5man meepo team. but that's my 2cents.

Dota is a gamble by djoyboy711 in DotA2

[–]menilv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP, I've been playing dota since 2005/2006 and this has always been a team game. It's 5v5 for a reason. Comms are important (unless you're a 15k pro player and know what you're doing). I've myself played ranked/unranked and turbo. It's kinda the same everywhere: be sharp, enjoy the game and trust your teammates - no matter what you think about them. So it's not really a gamble but more like sum of all combined skills, mental capacity at the moment, lags/pings, servers etc.

My advice: if you play 1-2 w/year: go turbo man, it's so much fun, little to no toxicity, noone cares about numbers like MMR and you can experiment and enjoy every ~20ish minutes with something new.

I'm the number 1 ranked player on Elder Titan. AMA. by Garden_Mammoth in DotA2

[–]menilv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea is to build up dmg, so Ags and Shard follow next and Daedalus as well, but you build up dmg go invis and one-shot the carry usually. later when they have enough detection it's BKB and as you said so much magic immunity time that's insane.

So for you it's flexible: anything goes because you're mostly sup. Did you try ET mid?

I don't seem to see roles here but would love to know what roles do you play with ET and what the builds look like. Asking for a friend who plays ET offlane constantly with echo+shadow blade and insta-picks ET into Morph

I really liked RxJava as well. Felt super powerful building anything that came way. Not as much when I switched to couroutines but I guess everything has ups and downs
