Dota 2 - Life as a 1 MMR player


Life as a 1 MMR player

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 01:38 AM PDT

Wake up after 1 hour of sleep

Barely conscious

Open up my Nintendo 3DS

Launch Dota 2

Plug in my 2005 Guitar Hero©: Aerosmith© PS2© Edition Guitar Controller©

Wait in queue for 43 minutes

Accept game

Highest MMR is a 105 MMR player named "ptmr :v"

4 people instalock mid, 3 of them playing Slark

1st pick random KOTL takes mid instead

Pick support because Kotl says he's buying Armlet before boots

The first gank at 10:30 results in our offlane spectre to die

Immediately hear a spanish 11 year old child deafeningly screeching into the mic

The chat fills up with jajajajajajaja for 14 minutes

Our Pudge with a Trump profile pic named "Cuck killer" gets into an argument with the other team about Trump

Both afk for the rest of the game, Cuck killer calling him a taco nigger while the other team says "fuk tump jaja"

3 people start feeding down mid, 2 from the enemy team

Win because the other team was jungling while we got megas

Kotl asks all chat "wtf y creep so big :v" and abandons 8 seconds before we take throne

Nobody says GG just the enemy slark says "puta"

Close DS and try to kill myself again

Dear PGL, I really need your help.

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 04:27 AM PDT

Well, this is a strange story. But thanks for reading anyway. My name is Valeria and I'm from Moscow. The day when I got tickets to Kiev (=Kyiv) Major was probably the best in years for me. I wasn't able to buy it myself so I found a random guy from Kiev in Internet who just bought tickets by himself, sent him money and asked to buy tickets for me. He was nice enough to do it - but only for group days. Still fine! I was so damn happy. A couple of weeks ago I bought train tickets to Kiev and wrote to this guy to share my happiness, but... He said that the day before he was robbed. He lost almost everything from his flat, even his sneakers. And, of course, we lost our tickets. So why I write this post? I still didn't lose my hope. I believe that orgs can help me. I have a proof - a picture of Police statement of robbery, and I have a photo of our tickets which that guy sent to me. Unfortunately we can't restore these tickets by ourself, but I believe PGL or someone else could help us. I'm still going to Kiev and still hope for better. Thanks for reading.

UPDATE. For everyone who think that I got scammed - let me disagree with you. I do believe this man, he has positive reputation in esports and worked for Na'Vi organization. We talked a lot about everything and became not friends but KINDA friends, okay? Please understand me, guys.

Wings Media Officer Speaks Out

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 07:43 AM PDT

Valve, may I PLEASE be able to edge pan while dragging items?

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 05:36 AM PDT

I and many others have been asking for this for a very long time. When you fulfill a request that only 10% of the playerbase asked for, you don't enforce it upon everyone. This was a stupid change in the first place since the very few people who had this backpack related issue had either huge mouse inaccuracy or a very high DPI/sensitivity..

What's even MORE stupid is ignoring the countless requests that the playerbase have made to be able to once more edge pan while dragging. This really is a huge mess from Valve; listening to a stupid suggestion for no reason and enforcing it upon everyone, and then ignoring the resulting consequence of it as well as the request to add an option.

Even though the issue was entirely on the player for mouse inaccuracy, I understand that some people would still have such issues, so an option should suffice for both parties. But Valve don't.


Now this case is a really minor issue, but if Valve manage the game the same way in the future, the outcome would be quite detrimental to the livelihood of the game. They really have shown incompetence in the past few months.

Valve, stop **** counting XPM after lvl 25.

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 08:58 AM PDT

Its that hard?

int xp, ActualMinute; double xpm, TotalXPM;

If(HeroLevel < 25) { XPM = xp / ActualMinute; } Else { TotalXPM = xp / actual minute; }

Kiev Major Predictions Compilation

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 09:10 AM PDT

HeyGuys ! Just like I've done it for several Valve events, i'm creating a compilation of the predictions made by Dota Celebs / Analysts for the upcoming Kiev Major.

Some of them (Merlini, Nahaz, Purge & Slacks) have announced they will release their predictions soon so I'm waiting that to update the spreadsheet.

Pay attention that the Single Elim format make it a bit random than a Double Elim bracket. Don't hesitate to share predictions on this thread.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1k_edWIomIc6iUYrZX86aQV_6wQsRdqe-BueGI7kHCM0/edit?usp=sharing

Document will be updated when new predictions are out.

Life as a 5k player

Posted: 18 Apr 2017 02:50 PM PDT

Get home after working for 10 hours

Feed pets

Turn PC on

Open dota 2

Forget I had promised myself to quit ranked.

Queue for a ranked match.

Browse /r/dota2 while a match is found

Remember how obnoxious /r/dota2 is, browse anything else instead

5.5k avg match is found.

Only 2 people are premuted. Neat.

Ban Abaddon or Kotl

5 core heroes highlighted during the draft

First pick a pos 5 support instead because I want to win

Buy courier, tangos, 2 wards, 1 sentry, 1 smoke, 1 tp

Give 2 tangos to mid, give offlaner ward, TP to ward enemy shrine

Spotted where the enemy offlaner warded and deward

Use smoke and run behind mid T1

Snipe enemy courier with enemy mid's salve

Back to safe lane barely in time to stack creeps

Harass enemy offlaner and pull creeps

Buy 3rd ward and send it to mid

Steal enemy rune and upgrade courier

My mid gets solo killed, "im done" in all chat he says

Tell him to use the ward I put in his inventory a minute ago

Get called a noob support and an account buyer

Smoke gank mid, get a kill and deward the lane. Morale raised

Boots and magic wand only items 15 minutes in

My cores are getting fat, feel the enemy team tilting

Kill their mid again, "im done" he says

Enemy team flaming each other

We push, get 5 towers and rosh

Enemy team is afk, they give up

+21 MMR well earned with hard work and dedication

Mute my mid player

Find another match

5 cores highlighted, pick support

Teammates flaming each other during draft for a past game's grudge

My mid goes to feed first blood and courier, abandons the game

Realize he and my hc were the people in the previous game's enemy team

-27 MMR

Realize my mid from the previous game was on the enemy team this time

Quit and promise myself to quit ranked

ZOTAC Cup Qualifiers - iG vs. VG

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 02:24 AM PDT

iG 2 - 0 VG

Honestly, I've never seen anything quite as absurd as game 2. Burning bottom networth, Boboka Treant 2nd highest networth and outfarming the entire Radiant side.

Boboka MK, Boboka ES, Boboka Riki and now Boboka Treant. He's a tilt-specialist.

Ninja Edit: Boboka was spectacular, but the game itself wasn't particularly outstanding. I'd recommend watching the VOD on 2x speed and enjoying the lunacy.
