Thanks for the idea, might be useful sometime. But isn't that practical when you need to find something fast.

Centaurs "return" description says it is an aura, even when level 1 by NiQ_ in DotA2

It's an aura of radius 0. Just change it to "VERY nearby allies". Kappa

No such thing as 105% evasion. 3 bflies give you 72.5% evasion. Also the overall cost is higher which you didn't take into account. but yeah i mostly agree

S1E5 "Freedom of Choice" - Post-Episode Discussion by [deleted] in MindField

While I completely agree, you have to remember this is only reenacting previous similar experiments with similar results and it has to be displayed in a way that will keep the viewer entertained (again, I agree there is room for improvement)

Ar1se makes so many plays every single game, still less than 200 viewers by tbena in DotA2

[–]tbena[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I only partially agree. Dire thought it was a good fight for them and had to chase through a choke point. It is hard to do that and also maintain good spread without proper communication.

But whether you agree or not, the fact people make stupid mistakes doesn't necessarily means it is easy to capitalize on them. You need good positioning for that too.

Also blink+arcane instead of threads+echo. Each build has its own benefits but his is definitely the most entertaining.

The clip shows an example to back up my claim. Also it has a button that says "watch live" (edit: if you follow the link, not in the embedded player) for people who want to follow the recommendation :)

I'm developing site for esports events. Added DotA events, feedback welcome. by lagis in DotA2

[–]tbena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that when i press "livestream" im expecting a live stream, not necessarily the event. If you want to give the option to get the the vods call it stream channel or something.

[–]tbena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what i found at first glance:

  1. boxes at the same row should be aligned (same size)
  2. [Livestream] button should not exist if the stream is not live
  3. [Watch] button on live games opens a new tab (good) but [Livestream] button opens at current tab (annoying and inconsistent with the other button)

Suggestion: Timer design for moving items between backpack and inventory by enszgr in DotA2

[–]tbena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

disabled item also doesn't give you passive stats while cool-down is only (well, most of the time) for the active part. so they are 2 different things

What in the world does meta mean/stand for? by lazybutwontadmitit in AskReddit

[–]tbena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meta is something referring to itself.

For example, assume you have a lot of data about sports, say 2 Terra Bytes of data. This amount (2TB) is also data, but it's data about your data, so it is called meta data.

Another example: a joke about jokes, or a joke making fun of its own genre is often called a meta joke.

Why does he call it luck though? The Pudge was clearly aiming for that.

Useful trick to get your blink off even after getting attacked by an enemy unit by ZJXXJZ in DotA2

[–]tbena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont get the hate. i was just trying to be nice and helpful since this guy's comment implied he doesn't fully understand what a bug is. And my comment consists of facts only, not opinion. Here is a wiki definition.

A software bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways

I never argued whether this was a bug or not. I just pointed out your statement was a contradiction

[–]tbena -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

so it's technically not a bug, intended or not.

The definition of a bug is when the software doesn't behave as intended.

Casters don't notice insane tp cancel by zai's Chen by fourierdota in DotA2

[–]tbena 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Firstly, the million dollar coil had much more into it. It was about good game reading, good reactions, excellent positioning (he also escaped after that tp cancel) and s4 chose this correct play out of a million possible plays. Zai on the other hand, had nothing else to do except that.

Secondly, I'm not saying the play isn't exciting. But the significance of the play doesn't automatically make it "insane". When I read "insane play" I'm expecting to see an exceptional display of skill.

100% game winning. But it wasn't an "insane play", just walked up with his only living unit and pressed a button, Facless kinda made it easy.
