the worst game of dota I ever played our team got megas at like 20 minutes and the game went on for 2 and a half hours, our naga still had 1000 gpm at the end though.

Iambic Pentameter posted:I'm sure the banter in the booths is usually pretty tame, but do you have any interesting stories of stuff you heard the players say? Eh, at this point nothing in particular stands out in my mind as something memorable a player said, especially since only half of the teams would use english to talk to each other. It was easy to get a sense of how the game was going regardless from the tone of their voice. 'gently caress' is the universal swearword. More than once there was a game where one person on the team was just being incredibly defeatist and toxic at that point in the tournament, and their team would tell them to shut up. It's a totally different experience being in a booth with a team that is winning. I've never heard people scream so loudly and excitedly about video games.

We spent a lot of time at TI together trolling around the event chatting about all the awful people eSports brings. It does not surprise me to hear this about Demon.

i now have the queen of pain arcana and it feels like what her model would be as a baseline if the game was released this year, lmao anyways, it rules. technically i have the skeleton king thing as well but that's such a boring loving hero.

Kuroky with the pos 5 jungle support Lycan vs FTM. Yeah why not, guess that's the price we have to pay for a w33 Windranger.

Definitely my best worst performance

I inexplicably have a desire to play dota again, is it worth buying the battle pass still or will I not get much out of it at this point without spending big bucks?
|
# ? Jun 27, 2020 02:49 |

it should be going on through most of september, iirc, which should be plenty of time if you want to get some stuff. not sure how much the summer event will pay out in terms of levels. there's the bundles for 120 levels each that are 30 bucks and you can buy two of them, which is neat.

You can do everything battle pass related with a level one pass, but you won't get any of the cool stuff (personas, arcanas, tvoice lines, etc) without spending more money, outside of maybe a few treasures.

yeah i have genuine doubts as to how much of the cool poo poo someone can reliably reach without paying more money. we technically don't have the full picture yet, i guess, but we probably have at least like 75% of it and you're probably gonna have to pony up for any of the arcana/personas for sure. getting that qop arcana is literally the only whaling i'll ever do for this game, lmao

# ? Jun 27, 2020 03:08 |

if you go super hard (complete both caverns, do as many guild contracts as possible, wager properly) you can probably get to like 150-200 but missing the first month hurts
|
# ? Jun 27, 2020 04:25 |
|
I think it's honestly closer to 150 maximum if you grind out absolutely everything from day one from what's on offer now.
|
# ? Jun 27, 2020 04:54 |

Playing on a regular basis can probably net you ~75-100 levels from wagering, cavern crawl, and the other achievement stuff. There'll be some more levels from the summer event/gamemode but don't expect to get the cool stuff unless you spend a bunch of money.

Taffer posted:I inexplicably have a desire to play dota again, is it worth buying the battle pass still or will I not get much out of it at this point without spending big bucks? the battle pass has never, ever given a realistic way to gain lots of points, and they get worse at it each year, but this is especially true if you start at level 1. In 2016 (i think) I got to level 85-100 and that was buying it on day 1.

i got a battle pass for free this year but reallyy dont feel like spending ~$180+ for skins, esp when ive barely played dota as of late

Just remember the two level bundles @75% off are only available through the end of the weekend.

Ragingsheep posted:I think it's honestly closer to 150 maximum if you grind out absolutely everything from day one from what's on offer now. I've gained about 75 levels so far from in game stuff, but only have roughly half the first floor of cavern crawl done. So between the rest of that, contracts (which I have more of per day now than I started with), and the summer event, I could see another 125 if I actually went after it. I am not going to do that though. But I could

# ? Jun 27, 2020 07:18 |

I've only gained about 38 levels with 80% of the first cavern. I forgot about bets at the start of games so if you're good at winning, there's a few levels there.
