omg starting already i laugh xD laugh till the end. good video lololol

Even Dendi said in his AMA that NaVi's current weakness is lack of play time together. I guess they will start to get serious close to ESL and TI4 #roadtoti4

The International 4. I hope its not a April's fool prank by valve -.-
http://blog.dota2.com/2014/03/the-international-10/

Yea just checked the timeline. It was still 31 March there when they posted it

wow.

surrender option.

The 4 days only consist of the main events (winner and loser brackets, grand finals)
There are 6 more days of playoffs (a.k.a. the group stages) and also few days more prior to the playoffs - wildcard matches, qualifiers, etc.
The whole event should be around 2 weeks, but I believe the compendium will arrive way earlier.

and the cost
my friend went to Seattle last year and the hotel + food + other expenses piled up to almost 2500 USD no money as a student can only support by buying compendium..

I think this year it will be a bit different.
Since there are like 17000+ seats, means there are much more people going to TI4.
And I'm sure this time valve will be smart and make way more merchandise for people to purchase.
Since the market is flood with so many TI4 stuffs.. I think the profit margin wont be as high as last year..

ya bro haha

lol they just put random numbers on different people

Have faith. Next patch

play in stacks or simple get to higher MMR
I have not been meeting a single peenoy since I start playing in 3's / 4's / 5's.. maybe its just me

hmm quite true also. I've been playing only during night times.. (10pm~2am)

neutral creep spawns are blocked if there are units around in a certain AoE (different for almost all creep camps), not vision. you can find guides in dotafire more for info..

generally you hit them at 0:52~0:54, then walk away. the creeps will follow you and a new creep camp will spawn. timing depends on what creep camp are there (ranged creeps usually need longer time)


yes. even standing there is ok. (just like how some bounty hunters block creep spawn at 0:30)

go to options -> game -> interface
Names/Icons always on minimap -> ON
Minimap icons instead of names -> ON

you're welcome. but i don't like the hero icons, too hard to see and very annoying. prefer looking at colors.

yup can choose from options to press alt to see hero icons/names or leave it always on the minimap

being a carry simply means you have decent last hitting (which is quite easy given that most carries are built to last hit easier) and also know when to go in and pull back from wars, calculating risks.
but being a support, you really need to have SUPERB last hitting (when you are alone in the lane / help carry deny creeps / pulling creep camps), then you really must now when and how to go in a war - positioning, timing, dying for carry, etc. There are a lot more to supports - warding, dewarding, getting suitable items (ward or mek? ) and a lot a lot more. Then you always kena flame when your carry can't farm properly or when your mid so chiong diving towers etc
to be honest, supports in high ranked games are really hard.. but that's the challenge in it. and i will feel extremely satisfied if I see my carry become so powerful because of us supports babysitting him from early game

I believe its Alt + left click skill icon? unless I changed it without knowing

is the alert allies of usable items working? (e.g. smoke, arcane, etc.)

server down again for real? pfft :/
will anything happen if i leave game when finding servers? =.= finding servers for 8 min already..
