Your certainly taking on some tough heroes for someone new to the game. I've steered far away from heroes such as chen and morph after some infamous in house games that resulted in berating someone for being terrible at the hero on their first attempt.

I'll try anything once CAI

 

[No1newts]

I'm never hitting 50% win/loss on this game.

Too many pubtards, whenever I get close I get matched with the sunshine club for a few games and it back to square one

 

[Nerusy]

Wowza I did not realize just how many dota2 items are allowed to be sold and for how much they can go, sold all my rares and mythical boar, one rare went for £1.5! Stand to get around £7 from all items I sold, good times!

 

[No1newts]

Where do you sell them?

 

[Murray]

I think I'd probably get around £250 for all my items at this point.

 

[Pudgey]

I think you can now sell all items on the steam market. I may be wrong though.

 

[Nerusy]

Where do you sell them?

Steam -> Community hover over -> choose market -> click on bright green sell an item right top. Go crazy.

I have the Alpine set

But how much did you spend on them?

But how much did you spend on them?

More than likely £250.

 

[Aedus]

More than likely £250.

and the rest

 

[Murray]

I've probably spent like £300 considering all the tickets and keys I've bought and not got anything back for.

3 good wins got me to almost 50/50 but then as per two matches with the sunshine club and that went out the (saliva drenched) window.

Sitting 46/50 and still waiting for the general upturn in player skills I was told I would see after playing more matches. No sign of that yet!

Anyone watching MLG? DK are 5-0 in the playoffs, looking v stronk

I can't help but support DK whatever game they're playing... ever since they formed with their current line up, I've just wanted to see them win everything they enter.

Not sure if that's because they're basically an Asian All-Star team, or if it's because I love watching BurNing!

You should notice a difference after 150 games total.

Got my first rampage on Lone Druid. #RoadToTI4

100 games of Dota really isnt that much im afraid, you're probably no where near as good as you think you are.

The more I play Dota2, the comparisons to online poker just keep on coming:

• Brazilians/Russians being abusive? Check
• Brazilians/Russians making overly aggressive plays/willing to throw it all on the line in an instant? check
• When you win it's due to pure skill, when you lose it's because the other team got lucky? check

Telling your friends/fellow Dota 2 players about how someone in a pub game tried to throw the game is exactly the same as telling someone in the poker world a bad beat story

True that. At the very least one need to players hero once or twice
