eh, well feel free to add some ideas instead of just trouncing everyone elses. Frogboy threw out a "classic wizard" as a template so thats what some of us threw out ideas for.
[quote who="Beejnr" reply="2" id="2177567"]Having read through most of this, its fairly simple to categorize the posters here: - Demigod Seperatists - believe universally that DOTA is a bad game with terrible people and are quick to tell you so. Their motivation for their hatred is sometimes unknown, though the opposition will tell you it is because they tried it, got pwned, and rage quit in their first few games. Other theories include that their fathers were DOTA play

yes you get rank and xp from AI's so finish your games

dude just let it go

only for the game
I think gameranger needs to take a hike, splitting the community isn't helping DemiGod in the long run
because being on the winning team feels goooooddddd [e digicons]:moon:[/e]
awesome, thanks!
ya, that sucks man, you just really cant stop people from quitting unfortunately
Not too fond of the wizard notion persay, but the idea of magic missles could turn it around for me. If going forward with a wizard I think it should be themed around DD and Debuffs in the traditional element of magic. We already have fire and ice so we need to give the wizard either electric damage or just classic blue magic (ie magic missles) I'm leaning towards classic magic. Magic missile <u
[quote who="Ron Lugge" reply="8" id="2176789"] Thats what rook does, it should be expected. You've clearly never been on the wrong side of my hammer slam builds.[/quote] yep, thats true. Rook is always either completely useless or unstoppable, the latter is always accompanied by tower pushes. If there is a hammer slam build that works, I've never seen it.
Haha I like how people always say 'tower spamming" rook, as if rook has some other viable strat. Thats what rook does, it should be expected. Best counter to rook is harass him early and use the gold from killing him to get some armor/hp regen so you can fight in the towers a little better, if thats not possible or he has a partner backing him up, ignore him and push the other side with the entire team. upgrade units and tower regen, and keep some scrolls handy to gank him when he over extend
you guys can talk nice about high ping all you want, but honestly anything over 150 is pushing it to me. some of you must be so used to lagging you don't really know what a smooth game is. I'm not trying to be an asshole about it, but it's really not my fault or my problem that the system is p2p and I certainly would not play with anything over 225-ish in customs
teh jade(ed) wizard hath revealed his presence!
to have deep freeze only effect skills after they are cast would completely nullify the ability. There's not a whole hell of a lot a frost mage can do to you, those -cooldowns are essential for getting kills. just change the description to "silenced for 7 seconds" and be done with it.
yes
Karma system sounds interesting, I just have to wonder how many people will actually *give* karma. I most certainly would if I enjoyed the game, but I have doubts about the goodwill of others. Not to say that we have a bad community, the community here on the website is fantastic, but the nature of competetive gaming always lends to trashtalk. Also, I have to note the ammount of trashtalk in Pantheon and Skirmish is 0% for me, it all seems to occur from arranged teams in my experience
have fun playing the unpatched, unbalanced pirated version. only the casual players will play it anyway which leaves room for the good players on legit versions
