AM persona would be good if she shared any of the AM cosmetics. The design is a good start but lacks flare. And particle effects. I need particle effects.

Mage Basher is too good not to use.

Johnny Joestar posted:

yeah, i dunno what you two are going on about. this poo poo is better designed than base anti-mage.

I think it looks fine, it's basically female anti mage. I just don't like her voice at all.

I'd also like to be able ot other other cosmetics. I didn't know you couldn't since the Invoker one looks and sounds garbage so I didn't get it.

also big losing streak, divine 2 to ancient 4. rip i suck when i cant cheese everything with necro book.

I played a quick bot game to test out Uncle-Mage and I at least prefer her design to some of that gaudy poo poo that went into the Collector's Cache. I like the voice lines, too.

i legit do not get what goes on in people’s brains that think that particle effects on almost any of the gear in the game looks good

it isn’t even about ‘readability’ or anything for me, stuff just looks ugly

:agreed:

Would've liked to see converted basher/manta blades for those that owned it, or custom skill icons but I can live without it. There's been way too much particle creep over the last 3 years so this is a nice change of pace for once

but of course the dota reddit is crying at how fem AM doesn't look like an anime waifu covered in glowing poo poo

I said the exact same thing earlier today - you can tell this is the same artist who did all character designs for Underlords that look basically identical. If you look at Dota concept art you can see that the old art lead who left Valve was the guy who did all the final designs for 90% of heroes.

Unless you run into one of the game-ending bugs where you can't progress and never get your crystals or points from it. The most common one appears to be the Dark Portal one where they stop spawning at 9/11.

Sniper, Omni, Mars, Viper did pretty well. Life rounds are a trap because, ideally, you shouldn't be dying. Had a group who kept going life rounds and we were so weak from the lack of gold and treasure.

Every hero needs both Heart and Force Staff to survive the final boss. He does this laser thing that starts on you and tracks you at like 400 movespeed. You need to force staff (or some other major movespeed increase) to not die every time it happens.

I think Witch Doctor is the single best hero.

I've been having some good results with Disruptor, though admittedly the farthest I've gotten is level 14 playing with pubbies. If you get the right enhancements you can do a lot with infinite Kinetic Field.
