[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="9" id="2297688"] i tend to agree with this i had a game vs 3 regs with 3ub we out play them by a mile (more kills, more flags, more upgrades, 2lvls higher, more everything) all they did better was killing towers and they didnt need to buy much items coz could outrun us most of times, we on the other hand had to buy alot of hp coz of the 3x snipe from anywhere on the map so in gold they cou
Pro Tip #2: In conquest mode, make sure to get the opponent's citadel to 0 HP before they get yours to 0 HP.
Pro tip: Always keep current HP above 0

[quote who="uberShade" reply="8" id="2293530"]The worst is premade Pantheon. They pair up fully knowing they're going against PuGs and are going to win every single game. On top of that they're elitist douchebags.[/quote] agreed. its my only loss.
I'm baffled. I am 9-1 in the latest pantheon and I have 938 experience, putting me at rank 604. How is this even remotely possible? Everyone around me is 0-1, 1-1, etc. Don't you start at 1000? How can 9 wins and 1 loss put me at 938? http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/rankings/tournament/15/player/43213/

[quote who="BobWI" reply="7" id="2293013"] Again, I would like to point out the fact that mines is, by far, the most non-linearly scaling damage ability in the game (most abilities follow a mostly linear increase in effect with each talent point). At rank 1, it does ~22% of the max damage/cast, at rank 2 it goes up to ~52% of the max damage/cast, at rank 3 it does a whopping 89% of the max damage/cast, with rank 4 obviously being 100%. 
[quote who="JagerJack" reply="1" id="2291621"] Quoting ItchyDustbin, reply 24I think it was more focused on the showing you how many very broken things pug players have no idea about first hand, not about beating you. I have never agreed that anything was broken, so I don't see how he can show me anything. I already know that many pug players are clueless about the game, the same could be said about any new player. That doesn't mean that the opinion of every pug player is worthless.

Ok, I changed my mind - Achievements are broken. Even if I'm just counting pantheon, my Unclean Beast should not have 0% of the way towards 250 wins. 2.5 wins gets me 1% and I've won about 15 or so post patch.

Personally I'm glad it exists so that I don't have to deal with many DPS Regs, which are actually threatening after a while. FYI my perceptions are based on the 2v2 and 3v3 games I play with my team. If yours are different because you play in pugs a lot - thats why. Odd, I had them exactly reversed. Generally the D
[quote who="Neoauld" reply="2" id="2290179"] Dota is lagless with the host system [/quote] Not true at all. You are completely dependent on the host in DOTA and I've seen horrible games with lag there, it just manifests itself differently with 3 second reaction times from when you click and your character moves.
I did a few pantheon games today and each time it said "you are the only person looking for a match" and within 1 minute it matched me in 2v2s and 3v3s with no AI, all humans. Don't trust what it says with regards to how many are looking - it can be completely inaccurate.
[quote who="DeadlyShoe" reply="6" id="2289187"]Mines arn't fine. They need to be changed somehow. Just compare Mines to Hammer Slam. Mines are harder to dodge, have better AOE damage, can be placed at further range, and have all the utility advantages of being preplaced. Mines also get their slow effect at 4 skill points/level 10; Hammer Slam requires 5 skill points/level 15. Hammer Slam's only advantage is better single target damage in a single use, although for

So I think I figured my problem out... It appears achievements only count for pantheon/skirmish (can this be confirmed by SD?). The reason I was confused was because I hadn't played Regulus in pantheon/skirmish post patch, but I had some data from it that must have carried over from pre 1.1, even though achievements weren't saving on the website then. I do see my achievements updating when I play with UB on pantheon/skirmish. If this is the case, I t
