This post is for all those who bought the Mirana's statue, that are feeling unsatisfied/cheated by false advertising of the digital item. When we bought the statue we were offered a Tsukumo in the form of a cloudy tiger, however we were handed a rabbit of very poor visual quality. Just as we can check right here: Advertised vs Actual http://imgur.com/a/oqTjE In this case, we were clearly affected by false advertisement, which is why we, the unsatisfied buyers of the statue, must unite to demand that all those involved repair their mistakes: Valve, We Love Fine and Vermilion Wlad. I suggest that we create a group to contact these companies and massively request that there be the adequacy of what was delivered to us, with what was sold to us. For those who aren't unhappy with the digital item or those who didn't buy the item, I ask to be polite with the people who belived in the advertisement and spent a lot of money in the idea that was sold by Valve, We Love Fine and Vermilion Wlad. Also the digital item is not a plus, an benefit that is not attached to the statue, keep in mind that the people who bought the WETA itens didn't expected any digital itens, those digital itens were created and incorporated to the game almost an year later from the first purchases. But the Mirana's statue was sold with the advertisement of the digital item with it, without any mention that the digital item could change. https://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/dota2.gamepedia.com/b/b5/Tsukumo_the_Moon_Cloud_Preview_6.jpg?version=a53f2bd7b78e9b9756214fce1a649702

Enchantress's new talent which provides +60 Untouchable Slow actually only gives +30

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 10:22 AM PST

The skill description is not even updated, but you can see it on the enemy debuff icon when he is attacking you. It says 160 instead of 190. You can also calculate it from the screen where your attack speed is located and it clearly only removes 160 attack speed.

Hilarious bug with 7.02: when Spirit Breaker charges you, the ward preview shows up on YOUR hero... so you know exactly what he's doing

Posted: 08 Feb 2017 08:27 PM PST

I posted a video here: https://twitter.com/MaxOfS2D/status/829546410144038914

It's amazing, SB's charge vision (which is YOUR own vision) displays around you accurately... you can use it to bait, leaving your team right outside SB's vision to rescue you as he comes to bash you.

EDIT: apparently this happens with a bunch of other spells... come on... did no one really test this?

TNC just released a series of cool and inspirational Roster Introduction Videos

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 06:52 AM PST

TNC uploaded a series of Roster Introduction videos on their Facebook page that includes short backstories of each player, their current inspirations on playing the game, and how playing (and winning) DOTA changed their lives. They also released a music video. lol

SamH, and Raven

Kuku, Ryor, and Tims

Roster Introduction Music Video

Some Take-aways:

Sam is very family-oriented. Raven is good at his studies and was an achiever but had to stop school because his mother lost her job. Kuku was ganked in real life when he ran away from home once. Ryor's mom had to leave him and work abroad to provide support for him. Tims' grandma was VERY supportive of him.

The videos actually have high production quality, and shows that the TNC Organization are very much supportive of the players and are treating them as stars. I personally liked how they edited the videos to link their backstories together and inserted cameo after cameo.

They also released these videos in time for the launch of TNC's new Highgrounds Cafe at Quezon City, Philippines which is a restaurant/coffee shop/internet cafe/Esport Hub. It looks hella cool too.

I hope this roster sticks for long and achieve more. I also like how they are involving the players in the business side of things too. They can't play DOTA forever after all and its nice to see that the organization is helping the players manage their earnings and establish stable income. The TNC organization seems really intent on developing their brand, their organization, and the DOTA scene in the Philippines and SEA as a whole. Props to the TNC management, players, and organization as a whole! Go Conquer New Worlds!

Hero Builds Server is completely de-synced again (4), guide may be unable to update or be published

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 01:16 AM PST

Hello, I may stop doing these posts because they are getting frequent and irritating for some people.

This has happened a few times since the launch of 7.00/7.01/7.02:

When a new update is pushed through, the Hero Build Server breaks down and soon after, it can cause it to be de-synced - preventing hero builds from being updated, published or even loaded for some. It can take up to a week for it to be fixed, if Valve is aware (and if not, longer).

As always, since Dec./7.00, updating your 6.88 Nature's Prophet may cause it to be removed in-game. At the moment, I think only my guide has been completely removed.
And still, Monkey King Builds won't show
Users are also reporting being unable to create or view their own personal builds.

Full report: dev.dota.com

Tensed shoulders? Try these few stretches (very work-friendly!) [x-post from r/fitness]

Posted: 08 Feb 2017 09:47 PM PST

Hey gamers of r/DotA2,

I originally posted this in r/fitness, and it was quite well-received. I thought that this would be helpful to you too, since you guys probably sit in front of the computer for long hours!

Here's the link to the original thread on r/fitness

So, like many people, I work long hours in front of the computer, which results in me having very tensed up shoulders. I went on a research-craze and looked into several shoulder stretches, of which these have been very helpful in helping me to relieve the tension in my shoulders.

Plus, they're super work-friendly (good for you if you don't want to look awkward in front of your co-workers.)

I'm sharing them here with you guys today -- hopefully it's helpful!

1. Back Scratcher | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Raise one arm above you, placing the hand behind your neck area.
Use your other arm to grab your elbow, and gently pull it inward for 15 seconds.
Repeat for other arm.

2. Reverse Prayer Pose | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Try to bring your hands behind your middle back.
Slowly clasp your palms together, bringing in from your last finger to your thumbs.
As your palms come together, push your chest out a little and squeeze your shoulder blades.

3. Standing Wall Stretch | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Find a wall and stand at an arm's length away from it
Press your palms against the wall at shoulder height
Without moving your palms, lean your upper body forward as if you were making it parallel to the ground

4. Corridor Stretch | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Find a wall, corridor, or pole and be at one arm's length away.
If none are available, proceed to find another person for support (don't forget to seek permission first).
Grip one arm on the surface
Turn away from the surface and hold the position

5. Cow Face Pose | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

If you aren't flexible enough to reach for your hand, grab something elongated (e.g. ruler, towel, stick)
Place both arms behind your back – one from below and one from above shoulder level
As far as you can, reach for both hands to touch each other
If you're using a stick, use your free arm to grab the other end of the stick
Repeat for the other side by switching your arms

6. Sitting Cat and Cow | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Adopt a upright sitting position
Curve your back inwards as far as possible, with your head looking towards your belly button
Your shoulders will be pulled forward at this position
Arch your back outwards, with your head looking skyward or even behind
Your shoulders will be pulled backward at this position

7. Dipping Stretch | GIF

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Grab the back of your chair support (or the edge of the arm support as seen in the gif)
Bring you butt to the edge of the seat, or as far from the back as possible

Hopefully this is helpful to you guys. Let me know if there is anything I can improve upon.

Inside the thread on r/fitness, a few people asked me to share more related exercises for them to do and stretch. I actually compiled 21 of them into one long blog post (all filmed in gifs with step-by-step instructions). Here's the Compiled 21 Shoulder Stretches
