fuck south americans, and especially fuck russians.

That's how it's supposed to be. 1 hard carry, 1 tank (or a tanky support), 3 support.

And some russians are actually really really good. If you constantly get matched with really bad players, you are still in the lower tier MM. MM works and it matches you with equally talented players.

even in 4 protect 1 strategies you usually have a semi-carry + your hard carry

iirc mm tries to enforce a 50% win rate so its likely that you get matched with losing players when you constantly win

[Renxo]

is that why I get derps half the time? I'm up 2 games past 50% its fucking annoying

[Nlkko]

5 game losing streaks

[Timewav3zer0]

^same here...been losing more than winning

[roflwaffle604]

dat 50% win percentage enforcement

[Atsui]

losing players meaning ppl on a losing streak, it doesn't mean they're bad

just play more games, build your mmr, or don't solo-queue lol

[Nlkko]

Any1 plays with bots recently? They changed the AI and it's actually a lot of fun playing with them now.

[PuYang]

I don't notice any difference with BOT AI. They still go batshiz insane anytime you enter their radius, and they will tower dive you if they have more than 2 of them. They are incredibly predictable and easy to abuse xD

on the other hand, playing with people vs bots gives you BP and Item drops now... its quite relaxing not worrying about losing etc, and still level up/get items. I do this whenever my usual teammates are not online ;p

[RFlush]

Just play compendium matches when next ti is around. Everyone has the bonus points, was able to get levels very quickly. Level 24 with 300 games.

But levels are useless. Anyone over level 8 is eligible for arcana drops and that's all. The higher the level doesn't improve your chances. But you are still guaranteed a random item after each level

[wasabisashimi]

are you saying playing bots will increase my MMR , and its less painful than matching up with real, but shitty players with same low MMR?

New patch is so weird... So many changes that don't seem necessary and some even OP...

Some very weird ones: Pudge and VS can use blink dagger now. Linken's Sphere buff can be transferred to ally (kinda OP?...), Slark's ult can no longer be countered by truesight... and some other stuff.

gonna take a while to adjust to some of these changes ;s

• Buyback prevents gaining unreliable gold until your normal respawn time finishes
• When buying back, 25% of the remaining respawn time will be added to your next death
• Offlane creeps meet closer to your tower
• Ranged heroes now receive same amount of denied experience as melee heroes (instead of less)
• Experience AOE is now 1300 instead of 1200
• Non-ancient neutrals now split experience with all heroes in the AOE instead of just the team that killed it
• Medium pullable neutral camp has been swapped with the small camp
• Pull timing duration has been reduced
• Jungling has been nerfed (experience gain has been lowered on almost all creeps)
• Day and night time is only 4 minutes rather than 6
• Roshan now respawns randomly between 8 to 11 minutes
• When aegis expires unused, it heals the hero fully over five seconds
• Random gold bonus has been reduced by 50
• Gold for ending a spree has now changed from 75 to 600 and 125 to 1000
• Gold income is now 1 per 0.6 seconds instead of 0.8 seconds
• Tower last hit bonus has increased from 100-200 to 150-250
• Melee barracks now regen at 5hp/s and ranged barracks no longer regen
• Ranged barracks now have 1200 instead of 1500 HP and armor has been doubled to 10
• Evasion stacks diminishingly
• Can no longer orb-walk with ethereal blade (fucking Huskar)
• Wards give 50 gold on destruction

Those are the bigger gameplay mechanics that have been changed.

Bloodseeker on the other hand has had his movement cap removed. Yes, he can now move at like 1000ms. That and thirst is now map-wide with vision cap at 50% across all levels and stacks infinitely. He will be a popular pub pick choice.

The new four minute cycle of day and night can swing both ways for Nightstalker. He's definitely more useful consistently for ganks, and Nightmare now reduces enemy vision by 25%.

Slark's shadow dance can now no longer been seen even with truesight.

Pudge/VS can use blink dagger.

Invoker now regains 50% of the mana dealt with EMP and has 2 spell invokes at Level 1 instead of 2.

Lich sacrifice cooldown has been increased, but now grants experience in an AOE. Also, it no longer denies experience for your enemy.

Item-wise, linken sphere can be transferred, tangos are no longer shareable, shadow blade cooldown increased to 28 from 18, and tranquil boots have been reworked and can no longer be disassembled.

* Creeps now meet a bit closer to the tower in your offlane

this is pretty big. makes more heroes (or setups) viable for offlane

also no more pooling and bottle nerf

[Nlkko]

Bloodseeker still isnt any better. The vision is so limited you're susceptible to gangbang. Move speed is nice but he can already chase pretty good. He needs burst damage.

I played the new alch and hes fucking banana. Automatic heart of tarasque everytime he ult. He's impossible to killed if not bursted down super fast. He can also solo rosh early now.

Tranquil is garbage. 13 seconds broken everytime you attacked or be attacked. That's a long ass time, even for supports.

Down to play with anyone as long as they speak english.

[Eatman]

Man, the new broodmother is annoying as hell!
So tough to kill that bitch now, always hiding up into the hills and trees. Even when dusted the bitch gets away
