MIRACLEOFSOUND VS DOTA 2

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

TLDR: Grey's a douchenozzle.

Could be worse, he could have had you drawn into a comic. XD

 

[Rakor]

You could say it's a....Critical Miracle!

......yeah.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

It's funny because in game the lads tend to all start shouting stuff at me like TP to MID LANE AND BUY OGRE HAMMER or THAT PA IS GONNA GANK YOU and I'm like WTF I don't speak Dotanese

I suppose this [http://a.pomf.se/ebzrqx.webm] sums up your reaction? =P

Here's a glossary [http://wiki.teamliquid.net/dota2/Glossary] of most of the terms you may come across in game. You know, if you want to keep playing that is...

 

[Excludos]

Omg. I knew Gav was bad from the Jimqusition podcast, but I didn't expect him to be THAT bad. It looks like he haven't played an RTS in his entire life (I know its not the same, but the micro carries over somewhat).

 

[kouriichi]

I wonder, what was gav doing when he did nothing in the game?

Still, this was great. And yes, I understood all of it. Since you know, I played DotA 2 as well as others like it.

Probably waiting on cooldowns. A lot of players new to MOBA's forget that you can attack enemy champions, and not just throw spells at them.

That said, he was at least able to last hit a few times. Better than most people just starting in Dota2.

 

[DocJ]

This is the greatest thing I have ever seen. For some reason this was more entertaining than watching James Harding at the International.

I like to think I'm pretty good at the game. But if you take away my knowledge of how to use the right mouse button I fear I would be like this.

 

[someonehairy-ish]

I understood nothing except Ogre Emotional Support Level: 100% moment and how I am curious on what was happening. Can any DOTA2 players explain the weave of the battle, maybe, for people who don't play this game and why that Faceless Void thing was bad (if it was)?

I realise that other people have explained somewhat, but if you want to see what the 'oh shit' was actually about, look for the big purple bubble thing. That's a spell Faceless Void casts, which pauses time for everyone inside it except himself. If he's powerful enough to murder all of you before it runs out, then that's exactly what he'll do.

And he did.

ot: as someone who's played enough DOTA2 to understand everything that was going on, but still remembers being a noob... that was enormously entertaining. I cracked up at the MLG cheers for his 7th cs almost half an hour into the game. Woooow.

Or probably new players to mobas in general. I don't know how it went for me the first time. Don't remember. And that was when LoL was starting to build loads of steam. If that makes any sense.

 

[Vigormortis]

He's a faceless blue **** who freezes you in time and then beats you to death.

Not if you Ghost Scepter before he ults.

Or, for bonus fun-points, have a teammate Ethereal Blade him after he ults.

All that frozen time....and nothing to do with it.

I legit have no fucking idea what any of that meant.

Allow me to translate:

Paragraph 1: You played Orge 'like a baws'.

Paragraph 2: Whoever was playing Anti-Mage was a dick and nearly cost you the game.

That make more sense?

 

[maddawg IAJI]

As a league player who has played Dota in the past, I can both relate and feel embarrassed for Gav.

 

[Ragnarok2kx]

I'm pretty sure Ogre has a hidden passive where the more time you spend staring into space and tanking creep waves, the better your multi-cast chances. Legit play from Gav right there.

And dem fat Magina throws. Its not a real game of Dota til someone buys back, TP's into the middle of 5 enemies and dies having done no damage.

I legit have no fucking idea what any of that meant.

It's like an entirely separate language that takes 1000 hours to learn the basics of, then once your confident enough to speak it others will tell you every chance you get that your pronunciation is crap and that should die in a car fire.

On reflection, that might not make any sense either.

Somebody on the dota forums offered this little gem to express how he felt as a newbie to the game.

[Owlslayer]

That was just hilarious, loved the editing and everything. Tho I'm generally a sucker for MLG silly edited videos, especially dota2-related. I really love/hate that game so much. First F2P game that i actually spent money in, too. Impressive stuff.

 

[DarkhoIlow]

This was beyond glorious. The editing you did and adding the random gifs really boosted my laughter.

 

[WhiteFangofWhoa]

Does anyone still consider themselves even remotely passable at this game? I've wanted to learn from a good coach for several months now, but the search gets me nothing. Every game I play now Rikimaru just waltzes in and destroys everyone.
