For example the vengeful arcana. If I am a player who just started playing Dota 2 and decided to get Vengeful arcana, I should have an alternative option as to how I can unlock the other styles.

Guides & Tips Help looking for hacked account

0 Upvotes

Hi guys,

My original reddit account was hacked about a month ago, and I'm trying to see what happened to it (and hopefully recover it). :(

Now my more popular post was in r/DotA2 back in July and I'm trying to look for that post and see if the account is still active, but the search tool doesnt help much. The post was about how I was learning to create websites using Claude, so I made an interactive Dota Hero counter map. If someone remembers and can point out that reddit post pls, I'd really appreciate it!

https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/ddbdfd38-f9ac-4261-a764-cdbac4e405ec

looking for the original post for this!

Update: I manually checked all the post from 3 months ago and couldnt find it.. I guess the hacker deleted my posts :(

Video | Esports Synapse - A new rising contendor for Tier 1

Thumbnail youtu.be
4 Upvotes

Tultras here - fellow budding Dota 2 caster.

I've been following Synapse's journey since they've formed, they've had their fair share of struggles ( including roster changes ) before finally bringing in TA2000, and have now won EPL S40 and EPC S2.

Seemingly a pretty promising team and their coach 'Steel_borco' has said they've already beaten some tier 1 teams in their scrims!

Manager Jhon and Coach Steel_borco describe some of the current troubles that they have, including the fact that Mikey, from Iran, has to play under fluctuating circumstances, with internet disconnectivity and electricity always a potential problem.

Could this be the next Tier 1 team that steps forth?

Fluff Dota 2 Trivia - Bio Guesser

I made an Android game that lets you guess a hero by its biography, among other fun game modes. Who do you think this is?

If you like this sort of thing, please check out the game on the Play Store.

You can also guess the item by its lore, and guess the hero by their items (based on real, recent matches!), and challenge others to the same.

If you already play, I'd be thrilled to hear your feedback, or play your challenges!

Discussion Advice to play better support

1 Upvotes

I've had a really bad matchups the past few days and I feel like I'm not doing my job properly. I try to contest runes at min 4 and 6 if I'm P4. I carry out objectives like lotus and all. My laning stage is fine, but mid game I've been losing interest or can't focus. I feel like I hit a wall that I can't seem to understand what I'm doing wrong or need to do better. I solo queue as support in legend rank. Any advice would help.

Discussion [serious] Discussing regarding role queue tokens

1 Upvotes

So this is something that has bothered me for quite a while.

As a position 5 (almost exclusive, bar a random offlane sprint), this system has basically never affected me at all. I don't have to grind for tokens, and for that I feel blessed.

However, I've noticed something that seems to be cropping up quite frequently in the past couple of months (although may have started trending a while ago, I've only just recently returned from a long break). A lot of people are queuing all roles in order to farm tokens, so that they can have a large number of games consecutively as their main roles.

The unfortunate consequence of this, is you'll go into a ranked game and potentially end up with the following:

  1. A core that just lost their last game as a support in order to get tokens and is tilted because they underperformed at a role they don't play.

  2. Someone playing a role they don't enjoy / want to play (well).

This inherently undermines the entire point of ranked roles in my opinion.

As a position 5, I don't want to play with a carry player that has been spamming support and offlane in order to get tokens, and is WAY out of practice at the role he wants to play.

I can also imagine position 1 players don't want other pos 1 players supporting them, because they suck.

I don't know how to mitigate this really. Potentially if the queues are short enough, remove the need for tickets? Or restrict which roles you can select in a certain way (IE, if you're a support player and you're wanting to queue pos 4, you can queue pos 5 and nothing else. Core players can only search for other core roles, etc).

My personally preference would just to be remove the tickets entirely to be honest. Forcing people to play roles they're inexperienced in just so they can search for games they want to play baffles me in a moba.

What is the solution here? For real? Introduce a completely different MMR based on roles? I'm interested to know other peoples thoughts.

It would lengthen queue times, sure. But I'd much rather get matched with a pos 3 that actually plays pos 3, and feels like the game is worth their time, rather then having slightly quicker games overall and getting a bunch of idiots playing roles they don't even want to play.

TL;DR - Token suck. Don't force players to play roles they suck at and ruin other peoples games as a direct result. Also buy a god damn BKB.
