    Man, why is everyone in public matches on Battle.net such douchebags?

    I don't know, but they sure as damn hell are.

    In any game of 10 people, three are assholes.

    I've been playing 2v2 AT for a long time now and most of my opponents are not rude in victory or defeat and do not cheat/hack.

    people who rely on mh are pretty to beat anyways

    it's just a mindset thing i guess

    Not exactly a full house.


    What's the latest dota map, anyway?

    Uhh 6.44something, I think.

    They added like six heroes or something so public games are probably horseshit because while all the normal heroes are pretty balanced, they lack a lot of internal testing so new heroes usually start off esepcially awesome/sucky.

    Especially since after 5.84 and Icefrog took over. He completely took the reins and took charge, setting up a beta testing crew, and internal balance team, and a development team. It's actually pretty amazing how many talent people they've gathered for a fucking warcraft 3 custom game. There are even a number of game conventions that are holding sanctioned dota tournaments, with cash prizes and everything.

    You should try Pudge Wars Advanced I heard it's awesome and its creator is very handsome and modest

    I played that the other day, completely by chance. As soon as I saw "By Tossrock" I knew the map would scream quality.

    I also bragged about how I knew the creator, and about how we hung out in all the same places.







    None of that is true. Of course. Except that I played it and liked it.

    It's called put in your cd and install the game.

    If you've got a Mac app that'll read disk images you could use those too. What I'm saying here is WC3 is fucking optimized for Intel macs.

    I think mac has a built in one - when we lanned starcraft at the dorms - all the mac users needed was an iso and they could access the game.

    man dota isn't even that fun

    I just played some single player with AI players and it seemed a little dull. I've seen much more dynamic games.

    Like all games, most of the fun lies in competition. Pushing around bots is not really fun in any game. However, pulling off a triple kill Epicenter or what have you is fucking great. You just have to wade through the shitty community and steep learning curve to get there.

    The best thing about dota is teamwork.
    With the exception of 4-5 heroes you can’t win most 1 on 1 fights, whoever is loosing will just run back to heal. It’s all about working together with your buds, covering each other’s backs while getting kills.
    That said, I haven’t played a game with pubbies in months. Playing with a bunch of random scrubs that don’t listen at all and refuse to work together is irritating.
    Playing with a bunch of close friends, and maybe have one bnetter fill in a final slot is great fun though.
