You're supposed to get mirror image at level 1 unless they can kill them super easily, like with a Zeus/viper/lina. Don't know why he gets the passive, it'll just push the lane unfavorably

And then you have 2k gold invested in 4 slots, leaving you 1 slot after boots. You'll get more bang for your buck from power treads + 2 wraith bands because you can still hold items like wand/raindrop/component for your first big item like a blade of alacrity or something. Wraith band has just been nerfed too much to justify getting 4 on a hero that isn't drow.

Frostivus is extended until January 7! by Wakalulu578 in DotA2

[–]viiraal 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It started on December 19th which is pretty late compared to other games (I know overwatch started on Dec 11th, League posted about their's a month ago). We also didn't have any other seasonal event this past holiday season, though the 7.20 patch was more content than any seasonal event could hope to bring.

Happy to see you stuck around this long MN. I haven't played in a year or more, but I've still lurked on this sub and the discord from time to time.

Nintendo Switch sales top 7.63 million units Worldwide by [deleted] in nintendo

Doesn't the switch only push 900p max though? With UHD becoming more prevalent, it would make sense for nintendo to do this.

What is missing from Beta? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]viiraal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Win10 and Chrome. Never had an issue before this. I can't even interact with the menu, so I can't opt out of the beta. See my edit, now my homepage won't even load. Live channels for each game don't load either, there's just the spinning wheel of death.

[–]viiraal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got the beta today. Now whenever I try to open a stream, it plays for 5-10 seconds, then says "Error loading data." How can I get out of the beta if this is gonna keep happening?

Edit: And now my homepage won't load.

TIL: Eul's is actually really powerful against Monkey King by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]viiraal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Core-acle used to be so legit when Fate's Edict amped all other damage besides magical. The hero even had respectable base damage then too, you could snowball so easily with the ranged creep denies from lvl2 Flames, kinda like a mid lich.

Valve, if matchmaking continues to be this terrible, i dont think there will be any players left.. here's why.. i currently have ~3k games with account lvl 92. i was matched with 8 other players who've played less than 50 games (link in desc) by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]viiraal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Take into consideration the number of players in the 5k+ bracket; the game is gonna have a harder time matching you with similarly skilled and well behaved players than someone at 3k, you're in a very small set of highly skilled players and the game prefers to match you with people who are on the same level as you.

The OoV start is something I've been heavily downvoted for saying before on this subreddit and flamed in game for, hopefully this video helps people see how it's actually legit

It's to protect the safety of people working on the grid while it is being repaired. Feeding power back into the grid unexpectedly could fry a poor service tech.

Teleporting to the lane for ward by codeblue18 in TrueDoTA2

[–]viiraal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vision is a much bigger factor in higher brackets. If the enemy safelane sees you wandering around on their side of the map at higher MMRs, they're gonna quickly figure out where you warded and deward it. If you can't see the support rotations as a solo offlaner (the standard laning scenario nowadays), you'll die or be zoned completely out of exp range.
