[–]Darkalbino_ 9 points10 points ago

Thanks for this, I've read about the actual incidents and incident reports but it was nice to hear them talk about it. I'd like to see an actual rebuttle to this or if anyone could offer some criticism of it?

I made a hero rating system, where could I improve? by Darkalbino_in DotA2

Here is the formula and rankings.

Here are the sources for the games, I'm considering putting in what each ban and pick was for each game too on this.

Next time I buy a homeless person lunch, I'll be sure to keep it low key, sorry if I did this in the past.

It's like they are locking up the guy you know is innocent. THIS ISN'T HOW IT'S MEANT TO END :(

I'm amazed that I haven't played this game since I was 11 (21 now) and still remember all their names instantly.. its drilled into me. Amazing how the brain works. Polywhirl is still my favourite (use to have a plush poly <3)

How to play a good Nature's Prophet by TheScynicin DotA2

[–]Darkalbino_ 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, while I appreciate Shred_Kid's effort to detail a Na'Vi strategy. We don't all play competitive, let alone for Na'Vi. A good supporting progession would be:

Midas (Optional, normally get it by 7 minutes), Manaboots, Mekanism, Pipe (Optional, if you have no other on your team to get it, its dangerous to have both Mek and Pipe on the same hero), Sheepstick, Orchid.

Remember if you are playing support, to be constantly warding, its more iimportant to ward the entry to your jungle than it is to ward the entry into their's. So 200 gold can cover you for 12 minutes, which your midas should allow you to easily afford.

Dont buy the chicken, because it's more important that you buy your RoB or Gloves of the haste, but if your team doesn't have one, TP back to buy one and some clarities, if they do get one. Be sure to up it when you get your midas.

I hope this helps.

Hello,

I play quite a good public prophet, I average 550 gpm and 70%+ winrate with him. It really depends what role you are required to play.

Does your team already have 3 carries? Get a meck + pipe, buy wards and up the courier.

Does your team have no carry? Get Manta and MKB.

My standard build for him is Midas > Lothars > Sheepstick > Manta > MKB. The way I play is farm to begin with, not ganking unless you have a 100% chance to kill someone (no tango's and no escape), get up your midas, once you hit level 11 and have your lothars start pushing with 1Q 4W 4E 2R.

Here are some replay ID's: 14851279, 14811992, 14646017.

When I get back from deployment I will do up some VODs on how to play with him and general mindset, I feel like I'm often just a solo player (except the first 20 minutes which is ganking/pushing)

EDIT: This is a solo pub build, not competitive Na'Vi build.

How does one avoid raging? by Madblazein DotA2

[–]Darkalbino_ 1 point2 points ago

One thing I learned that took for ever for me to realize is that when you're teamfighting mid-late game, if you are the carry, don't be first in. Let your STR and initiators be the first ones in. So often I would get restless and just be like fuck this, the enemy CM is right there, im fucking killing her (knowing well and good that her whole team was there aswell) and yet I'd end up the first one to die, and being the carry this isn't good.

The way I prevent rage now is by looking at how I could have changed the situation, how I could have played it better. And I've noticed such a considerable change in my w/l ratio, I think im my past 30 games or so I've got around 75% win ratio.

There are some things that are unavoidablely rage-worthy like you have a lich and a necro and NEITHER buys starting wards or courier and its just like comon, this is stupid. You guys should know your roles. But for the most part my advise is think constructively and aim not to do it again.

Rental properties, now you see it, now you don't by ribboin australia

[–]Darkalbino_ 1 point2 points ago

I find this is especially true for bathrooms and kitchens. House valued at $320,000 with sub par kitchen and bathrooms > spend $30,000 on renovating these two things exclusively > house price rises to $390,000.

  • Fixed Searing Arrows not stacking with Eye of Skadi.

Does this mean that you previously were unable to hold eye of skadi and fire a searing arrow and receive the eye of skadi slow, and that it has now been changed so that one may receive the slow while firing searing arrows? Or vice versa?

Holy shit that makes such a difference. Between looking at the two pictures the grass can change it so much.. I never realized how much the garden can change the look of a home.

Russian Military threatens to make pre-emptive strike on US missile shield facilities by rudebot9000in worldnews

[–]Darkalbino_ 0 points1 point ago

Haha. I don't know if you're trolling or not. But the general concept behind massing nuclear weapons is to scare people into not attacking you, as you can strike them, killing millions of civilians, and essentially keeping you safe as countries dont want to risk losing their own civilians.

If the United states set these missile defence systems up it would render the large majority of the Russian arsenal useless. Leaving them open to invasion and strikes by the United states, and not able to return fire.

Have I explained sufficiently why Russia are entitled to be ansy about the situation?

I'm sure you could see why Russia is getting a little bit ansy about it though, right?

Lawyers and law students of auslaw -- how happy are you? by contrary-wisein auslaw

[–]Darkalbino_ 0 points1 point ago

I'm neither, but do enjoy the topic of law. I find that reading say, /r/politics will really get me down, severely. It makes me lose faith in the world, in man kind. And there are two things that bring me back around, the first one is /r/science, and the second is that I can do something to help change what it is that gets me down.

Pet owner loses $150,000 Supreme Court sheep battle by Token_Contrarianin australia

[–]Darkalbino_ 1 point2 points ago

The neighbours gave their consent to allow the sheep to remain at the abode. The council, however, rejected their futile attempts to remain content and the court agreed there was no legal way to keep the sheep at the residence.

Its the animal kingdom equivalent of someone giving consent to being punched in the face, it is still assault whether they agreed to it or not.

Neighbours had no issues with the Sheep. It was the council.
