Well, i wonder if its like the cannibalize in warcraft for the undead. Gain extra life???....hope it isnt too much....

This really sucks....its now gonna be even worse for the Orks...well still hoping they will improve the Orks...

Well... I think u have to accept Ork is no more what it used to be.. Last time it use to be Swarming race where they use numbers to win.

Its kinda like a pre swarming race where u need both numbers and effective counters to win.

Cmon Hunt if 1 of the best player "santiagoforever" can be uber with orks so can you.

mind to ask sumthing...how to get a close view of the units so that i can see their combat animation?

hi,i really want to know about chao's strengths and weaknesses so i can better fight againt other races....
is imperial general a great hero to fight against other heroes?he seems weak though

STR: One of the Strongest T1 and good offensive all the way.
Weakness: Poor Defences , Units get Obselete very fast e.g Cultist after 2-3 min they are close to useless.

Well, if we can ever get them to come....it would be a blast
Come on....you gotta learn sometime.......u did learn how to play DOTA didnt ya?.......its not like you suddenly gained the know-how from a dream......Besides BF2 rocks in full multiplayer. 

Well.. Why dont we learn to play BF2 in return you learn to pick up DOTA.

I think Hunt should be happy in some ways.

as Ork has been nerf up.

The lag issue aside, yesterday night my 2 tac squads shoots back 2 reaper squads and a commisarred Ig squad. All the while having a turret to run back to. But the opponents are not very good so it is too early to say if tacs are OP.

Anyway waiting for the lag stuff to settle now, will add u to fren list Ctrl-Alt

Heh. Your comeback is so weak and full of loop-holes that I could drive a Land raider through it and back.

Here's a reality check for you:

So lets say WCG.MY decides to hold the qualifier for DoW:WA.
Thats maybe lets say 20 PCs allocated for it, all brand new.
The licenses for the OS and DoW + WA.
Then you need the manpower, lets say 1 Head Marshal and 3 additional marshals to run the tourney and you'll have to feed them too.
And lets not forget the prize money for the winners, not to mention the air ticket + travel expenses to where-ever the WCG Finals maybe.

Thats easliy a rough estimation of RM70k to be spent on just holding an additional game. Who will sponser that amount for a game, that at max, will have 64 players playing. I'm being very generous here, considering that last year War3:TFT had less than 64 players participating. Dont even get me started on how many players there were for Starcraft, lol. Do you really believe that your fledging little DoW community can come up with that many players to participate ?

Compare that to running a DOTA tourney. The amount of players taking part easily out-numbers your DoW community. Just 13 teams taking part would already out-number the 64 player max of DoW. Also, you have the various team supporters coming to the tourney to show their support. Even so, DOTA is way, way more popular than DoW and is more easily identifiable to the average spectator and thus would draw a bigger crowd to the event. Plus, DOTA is also more "spectator friendly" compared to DoW.

And here comes the sponsers part. Sponsers pump money into an event so that, like you said: "sponsors main concern would be if their brand is stated everywhere in the event instead on just the mousepads the gamers use"

So by your same logic, would sponsers want their advertisments and promotions at the event to be seen by a small community of DoW players ? Or would they rather cater to massive crowds that the DOTA community will bring in ?

Do the math here yourself Hunt. Sponsers pump money into events not to lose money. They do that to position their services and products to the maximum possible amount of target audiences. And they have right tool to bring in the crowds: DOTA.

Love or hate DOTA, its the current game that is mainstream and appeals to bigger crowd. I would dare say that new CCs are being opened nation-wide, just for DOTA. Do you see that happening for DoW ? Whatever money SMM is pumping into the DOTA tourney, the prizes and expenses, they'll earn it back through the licensing fees they'll earn from WC3 and TFT.

YHBO. YHL. HAND. = )

Good job at remotely doing any reseach before replying. Most if not all local dota Tourneys are using 6.32b already.

If you think that dota is going no where, CAL has got 2 divisions leagues for dota and major CS clans in the States, such as Complexity, Pandemic and Jax Money Crew have a dota team on board. It is definitely "moving on" somewhere, considering big name sponsered clans are pick up dota teams for their roster.

Make no mistake here, I dont love or hate DOTA. I dont even play it on a regular basis. I've been down a very similar path before, back in the days when Quake3 was slowly being eaten alive by the then emerging CS. I used to b itch and moan about how stupid CS used to be, being so random with the aim. I know how it feels to have your game's player base slowly being eroded away. Now, the same is happening with CS. DOTA is slowing killing it and the cycle continues.

no offences to all dudes but This Thread is turning from a DOW thread to an Anti Dota Thread...
If the Dudes from Warcraft 3 forums hears this all hell break lose.

Anyway Dota is a Group Activity game that everyone have fun with it, I can see it from my friend like after a game everyone go laugh about how each other plays. What WCG msia do with it is their problem.

Anyway Guys whats tha feedback at 1.5.

Hunt,

i just play a couple of games tonite, i find out that im a completely noob.

since u are the orks pro player here,
so can u teach me the the strats for this map?   (i attached the replay)
coz i cant see any good orks replay recently.

1. The capping order for this map. I dont have any idea for capping order,
if the raptor come and harrass, i will lost all the points 

2. When to use early storm boyz harrass strats.

3. orks economy. awww, orks econ is sux. they walk so slow and vulnurable to
early raptor, scouts and ASM harass.

4. Should i get Big Mek 1st or shoota boyz 1st?

5. orks essential upgrades? which 1 should i upgrade 1st. armour upgrades or
leader upgrades?
I hardly attack the IG's base, my orkies really cant stands with the damage of grenades launcher. . Maybe there is a better way to approach IG's bases that i donno.

My point exactly......the fall of another SM chapter.....its Primach - Redeye.....had his mind expose to the taint of Chaos too long that it has consumed him and his chapter. Looks like CTRL-ALT, you got yourself a new ally.....if he still plays DOW.....

Anyone mind to explain the characteristic of each race ??
