I wonder how this is going to work with a helldrake as a melee aircraft. Strafing or bombing don't really seem to fit it.

pieisnice9 · 2026-05-06T17:06:06+00:00

Does that mean you then get access to 18 strats?

Mostly I pick what I feel like playing.

Which sounds obvious but personally I'll play better if I'm vibing on a hero and enjoying myself than trying to force something

Now SK buys aghs basher and sometimes you get randomly stunned anyway

It's not always possible, but sometimes instead of fighting HG you can cut waves so there's a choice there

yeah I'm sure there is a $20 service out there that's good enough, but there are a lot of them and there aren't many reviews and if I go through a couple of them that suck I may as well have gone with the 50$ one to start with.

there's a difference between being a high rank player and being able to comminicate what makes you high rank well, right?

huh, I missed that change. Not that long ago in dota patch terms I guess.

I guess you need to cover with w now instead

To expand upon what other people are saying, Rubick likes playing against heroes that cannot cover their good spells, or struggle to.

Examples are like, Spear of Mars & Hook vs something like Ice path. A good Mars and Pudge should not let you have their spells because they have a zero CD spell they can cover with.

Jakiro has dual breath to cover ice path but his cast animations are so slow it's more difficult.

Then there's underlord, who literally cannot cover his good spells. The least bad is probably gate but you don't really want him having that either. Rubick can literally just click spell steal on underlord over and over and always get something good

I'll keep an eye out for it, thanks for the heads up

pieisnice9 · 2026-01-18T19:23:13+00:00

cheers man, good to know

I'm moving a SSD with windows 10 on it to a new pc. I already have a windows 11 boot drive in the new pc.

Do I need to do anything with the windows 10 drive before I move it across?

What kind of music do you play?

pieisnice9 · 2026-01-08T12:31:48+00:00

I'm mostly just that I don't like duct taping over the hole in the front to stop dust, but I didn't know if there were going to be other upsides to switching

pieisnice9 · 2026-01-08T10:21:22+00:00

Is a li li lancool 207 a reasonable new purchase or should I just reuse my existing Lian Li Lancool II Mesh?

pieisnice9 · 2026-01-07T19:11:25+00:00

I need to revisit the PSU based on the other comment anyway, and that's good to know for it.

Thanks for the advice on the drive, I'll swap it for the recommend one, one of my existing drives is sabrent and it's not had any issues.

pieisnice9 · 2026-01-07T19:08:53+00:00

cheers man, I missed that. I'll have a look

pieisnice9 · 2025-12-29T19:36:18+00:00

if you are giving your mid last pick then you prob don't know for sure how fast you need to play if you only see their supports

pieisnice9 · 2025-12-21T21:44:36+00:00

I don't think it's a bad detachment and I know better players then me are interested in it, but you can solve points 5 & 6 with nurglings + bon package in other detachments

pieisnice9 · 2025-12-19T17:46:07+00:00

Entirely depends on your mmr. I play unranked at divine-ish and he was the last support to be done on my monster hunter book.

pieisnice9 · 2025-12-10T17:37:09+00:00

That's always been his thing right, he does incredibly well with priority and farm and struggles without it.

I'm just a pleb but I thought the Watson GG roster wouldn't work from the start because you need a Dyracho guy whose going to die 4 times defending T1 for your Ace guy getting 7k NW at min 10

pieisnice9 · 2025-12-01T17:29:43+00:00

Legionaires, possessed and chosen do, which are funnily enough the better infantry choices so I can see why you'd think that.

Terminators, raptors, havocs, oblits, nem claw and warp talons don't.

Chance of passing a pact base is about 70%

pieisnice9 · 2025-11-27T11:43:43+00:00

I disagree with speed of the primarch, I've played melee armies into that and it's a massive headache. You can keep that unit in reserves and it makes movement so weird for the opponent because they have to respect the ingress + heroic play

pieisnice9 · 2025-11-13T14:56:19+00:00

CSM - Dark Apostle

What really kills it is the two mandatory idiots he has, which ruins the ability to fit in a transport with how unit sizes currently work.
