DotA 2

I wonder how do these players get into these tournaments? Is it like a private invite or something?

Dota 2 store!!

What am I looking for?

Check out JeeSports if you guys want to enter a tourney. The qualifiers start this Sunday. You can join as a team or you can try to find a team from the IRC. 400 Euros to the winner, just to play some Dota 2.

^_-;

Darkwing duck was on the other team!

What is a good build + way to play Bat Rider? I wanna try him out.

Start tango, salve, stout shield + 3 branches. You can rush a blink dagger but i prefer vanguard first then blink. Max out sticky napalm and firefly first and get your ult when up.

Your basic attack is fire based so any stacks of sticky napalm on the enemy will increase it’s damage. Stack it up a couple times and auto attack to harass in lane. When you hit level 6 try to get some stacks, ult and firefly and watch them die. Firefly is also great to escape because you ignore terrain collision and go where you please. You can also use firefly to kill a couple camps in the jungle by just running over them.

Once you get the blink dagger you will initiate. Blink in, grab someone and fuck em up with your team. :tup:

I don’t even… Pretty sure you cant edit voice packs yet so we’ll be hearing the same old Invoker talking over her portrait. To think only the FGs had traps.

Hooooow the fuck did M5 get an invite over MTW

Just randomed Batrider in a bot game (people leave bot games?!) and he seems weird with the spam stacks, but that ult just screams fire trail laughter. Totally understand why Batrider needs a blink dagger. That will make gap closing for roping people up extremely easy. I haven’t seen a player controlled Batrider yet, but damn I would hate to die by trail fire.

He’s one of my favorite characters to play for sure and I think is slightly under utilized in the current meta.

I can’t seem to get a good amount of oil stacks on people. Cause its like 160 mana to get a full 8 stacks and all the opponent has to do is run away for 8 seconds to make it all useless.

Don’t worry about getting full stacks, you never will. Just get 2-3 and you will be fine. If you can get 4-5 you are almost guaranteed a kill from just activating firefly and running over them/auto attacking.

Just get one or two on them and get a couple basic attacks in. You wont ever get full stacks.

Does Force Staff work on Batrider when he ults or does it break it?

I think it should, unless there’s a glitch.

Holy shit, did anyone catch game 2 of the qualifiers for the international 2 between mouz and virtus pro? AMAZING fucking game, so many crazy back and forths, I only wish singsing had gotten a chance to use his final items at the end. Here’s the vod for it, it’s long but if you’re a fan of high lvl dota2 play it’s worth it:

Yeah, I’ve been watching the quals too. I’m surprised Mouz went on to beat infused about the disastrous game 2 they had against them.

Grand finals were bullshit.

mtw is going to get rolled at the international. Way too cautious of a team.

Watching Dreamhack Dota Grand finals mTw vs Na’vi! 1-1 Bo3, Game 3 about to start! mTw looklin like they deserved to be invited to the International rather than playing through quals.

P.S. If there’s anything worse than FGC stream chat, it’s the LoL vs DotA flame wars.

Good stuff mtw! even though they play cautious, they still take lane control. Kills aren’t everything when it comes to playing aggressive
