What is this.

Valve or any related org like ESL/PGL should really investigate this Kukuys group.

It is a streaming group with the likes of former ex pros: Armel, Gabbi, Kuku, and many other Filipino pros going on and off in activities.

As a casual viewer, I have heard many times where they would joke about purposely throwing games in qualifiers, or jokingly suggest that one of their friends playing in a tournament should have told them when that player would throw.

There is also a recent post by KuyaNic, one of the pioneering casters in the Ph Dota2 scene where he claims Kukuys are protected by a certain Mafia group, whose boss by the way happens to be the owner of Execration.

Execration, owned by a certain Boss B, is reportedly known to groom upcoming Policemen, in return making them his own puppets. It is also an open secret that the Execration org itself is a money laundering scheme in the Philippines.

Just recently, the CICC (Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center) added Armel, Gabbi, Kuku, and Palos to their list of influencers illegally promoting online gambling; the group immediately went to this Boss B for protection, and now the group is laying low from gambling promotion.

I think that having an org and a group potentially ruining the Dota scene in the Philippines due to supposed match fixing, syndicate relations, is a bad look for the local scene.

I can't even get over how different everything looks, from the map to absolutely everything else.

JUST AN OPINION, THIS TIERLIST IS NOT BASED OFF OF ITEM STRENGTH, IT'S HOW COOL I THINK THEY ARE AS ITEMS

If anyone wants to hear my reasoning for these opinions I made a video on it here:

Edit: I got really tired by the end of doing the list, I would definitely rate a few items differently for example I think daedalus should be way higher

This is just my opinion.

Typo (that “Sold Reflex” is “Solid Reflex”)

Working on full conversion mod rn

Suddenly valve ban the bots now, I'm exciting what will be another excuse of people if dota 2 still hit 900k.later

Neo

I made a clay Tidehunter for my brother's birthday, and thought I'd share it here. I didn't make his anchor because the clay I used was oddly difficult to work with.

TIL you can turn temporary mana into real mana by tapping Twin Gates after using Soul Ring

It's called Soft Support. In other words, you are a FUCKING SUPPORT BUY WARDS YOU ANIMAL

edit: that includes sentry which isnt free btw.

We need it today.

I'm not new to mobas and I've considered playing dota 2 for like a decade but always put it off. ​The length of the games and certain mechanics just didn't appeal to me but hearing people say how much Deadlock takes from it made me want to try it.

Any hero recommendations or tips would be appreciated.

totally broken

Thrown out out of game

EDIT: I was in the middle of a 5 man blackhole

As the title says really. My client keeps getting stuck on this for minutes at a time. If i dare restart my client, I get the dreaded red box as if I've abandoned before the game starts. I also quite regularly get the game 2 coordinator problem. Any ideas?

Good afternoon!

Please remember to check whether you have any commit pending to the main client for today, should show up under codename 742 or 800 something like that. If you have issues with testing some niche issues such as rubick new interactions, morphling and meepo shenanigans, new hero balance and stuff like that, don't you worry because you have a dedicated team of +100k QA aficionados that can help you get to these pesky little bugs in no time. As always, drink your balanced amount of water, get yourself a white monster for the nutrients, or go to the healthier option of a double expresso and just hit that "commit" command, of course people will be disappointed (as always) but nothing you've never been through before.

Thank you and have a wonderful patch release day!

I don't think it's really a problem during a match, but the animation bothers me somehow. Is this the only Arcana where the hero has an actual animation when using Blink Dagger, instead of just some visual effects like Zeus, where the hero still faces the direction you blinked?

First time getting cliffed in a ranked game, it's fucking horrible and hilarious at the same time. This Rubick hostage me for 4 mins.

From now on I'll hold a grudge to Rubick players!
