The HoN/DoTA Thread

well playing dota on a laptop usually doesn’t yield the best “graphics” because laptop video cards are not as strong as a desktop
if you really wanna enjoy gaming, you should get a desktop
gaming isnt really meant to be on a laptop

but if you have a pretty sick laptop, when you load up WC3 just goto Options and maximize the resolution and details

My Laptop has 512 Nvidia card…I think that should be good enough to max out the graphics…

Possibly a DotA theme, link the youtube video.

I cant seem to find it anymore where can i see samples of these themes???

the Dota-Allstars forums has links.

Oh yah, spectre just got buff again :smiley:

I’m still sad that DR/Aegis doesn’t exist with clinkz anymore :frowning:

The changes are ballsy, I like! Can’t wait.

hey guys we’re having DotA tournament at the next c3 in june in Northern Virginia, please, everyone who plays DotA be sure and come out and bring your skills out for the tourny, C3 is always awesome and and big talent is always there. We want a big turnout so hype it up and tell your friends, heres the current thread for this May’s C3, http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=189103 , we’ll keep you posted as things come up

I got DoTA again. Add me on USWest: Tobias-Funke. That means you DDC.

imo.

UGHHHHHHHHHHH might play this stupid game this weekend.

Fuck you lolthar.

Just lost a match and it’s pissing me off. A smart and fully built centuar - with Omni and Abaddon supporting him was fuckin hard as hell to take down.

i suck at this piece of shit game now

Can some one teach me the item build for lucifer?

You’re basically picking Lucy for the long silence, and to tank.

Midas
Boots
Radiance

If it’s past 25-30 mins, don’t bother with the rad, just tank.

HoT

Assuming this is a standard skill level, non -em game, that’s an easy build with Lucy, if you don’t die much and manage to farm a lot. He’s a great team farmer because he gets bonus gold with devour + midas without taking away too many creeps from your carries.

Midas, HoT, then rad or shiva’s guard.

The problem with lucifer is that he has allot of problems with guys such as Abaddon, or any body with a high HP regen such as a Dragon Knight or any hero with vanguards on. NA can be a pain in the ass for his mana burns… another shitty side to Doom is his poor ass armor.

Midas, Radiance, HoT is the 3 necessity builds to cover up. Refresher and Shiva is good too… refresher allows you to cast doom to 2 of the opponents strongest casters… and Shiva gives a nice slow and armor. Realistically though, a Void, Midas, radiance, and HoT is the build. Save the void for whatever possible.

Thanks how about Mortred and Spectre?

Mortred just get damage. Regen is also good, which makes Bfury a great item to go for.

Just don’t get a butterfly or buriza.

Mortred: HoD, BattleFury, Bracers. Armlets work great too but i don’t get it as much

The greatest poster just goes Hod and Battlefury’s, con of this is the absence of IAS or something to increase HP.

Spectre: Vanguard, diffusal, Radiance, Bots.

Upgrade Diffusal to manta eventually. HoT comes whenever possible…

Seems like you got better :slight_smile:

I remember you used to post some wacky builds.
