take the survey to get in the beta pool (again)

gettin kinda pissy on account ofjust built a new beast of a system and these dota2/d3 bitches wont give me a key

Having never played dota and lol being the first moba i have ever played.

I really am not excited, I might play it.

Is dota2 free or are they charging for it?

its on steam so it probably isnt free, rofl.

that's a good thing though, tbh

30 or 40 dollars, no subscriptions no microtransactions

i think

Actually there will probably be obligatory skins/HATS just because assholes at riot made it industry standard

wtf is skins/hats

lol/tf2

It seems I now have it, anyone else?

Downloading ATM.

lucky sob

beta key achieved

probably way unbalanced, hope it has a long beta

played a computer game as a sniper
dont like the stash that is not real items yet
tele you have to buy scrolls? really? or am i just dumb?
actually, i dont like the whole stash thing tbh. maybe because lol was my only moba experience but i actually like the simplicity to that.

Stash is just so you can buy things while away from base and fetch them later, or buy a critter to bring the items to you in lane

yeah you probably need a tp scroll if you want to recall like lol

And if you want an item that is a combination of say 4 items but you only have one space, you can make it in your stash

its not that i dont know what the stash is, i just dont like it. its a micro aspect that gets in the way of the fun part, you know, the fighting
and i had some pot that let me eat trees p sure i wanted a health pot oops
what are the other venders for? i cant buy from you, i cant convert my stash from you, i cant regen from you. when do you come into play? whats the point?

played as a spider, liked him much less. armor eating swarm, phase shift, passive, 5 sec time reversal. support without dmg. and i dont know what im doing, so nope.

Yeah potions were invented in lol, dota used salves and tree-eaters

if you dont want to use the stash it doesnt hurt you, just wait until you are back at base to buy stuff (like lol)

i would like to add that as a support, i basically couldnt killsteal. i had 10 assists, 8 deaths cuz i still dont know what im doing against what, but i can see how support does not mean "jack kills, get gold, become a carry".

if only i didnt need scrolls. and is "r=ult" the same as "f"? why are my items not 1-6? do i have to set up hotkeys aka not default?
i should investigate things instead of just playing, though just playing is whats fun
afk

Nerubian weaver, hes a badass stealth damage hero in dota

Keybinds faggort

Recall is a luxury, get used to walking

lol made it casual

i get the feeling lol made it about fighting, not optimizing the xp
but i see the value of each

1-6 seems like it should be universal

warcraft 3 default was numpad
