Marisa had a bugged F skill that did 2/3 of its supposed damage for a few versions. That should be fixed in 980e. Can't do anything about her lazy dash though since it's a design decision. I wonder if it's slower than Aya's now...

CloverNaght · « **Reply #271 on:** February 05, 2012, 05:35:52 PM »

tell me the tl;dr version of why dash/blink skills (like marisa and aya's) become soooo sloooow in 0.980

Helepolis · « **Reply #272 on:** February 06, 2012, 06:35:52 AM »

Rough feeling Aya is faster with her dash, but that could be due to animation stuff.

Marisa's dash being slower now; She was pretty lame with that dash being so fast, it isn't that horrible (Fighting games tier)

ApharmdB · « **Reply #273 on:** February 06, 2012, 11:06:12 AM »

It was actually done to give people time to react to her D/F/W combo in early-mid game.

[Y]oukai [J]esus · « **Reply #274 on:** February 06, 2012, 11:31:31 AM »

The Hisoutensoku-dash/invulnerability frames are op when compared to DotS' dashes/movement.

Amraphenson · « **Reply #275 on:** February 06, 2012, 06:05:09 PM »

If they didn't change anything else about the dash, in effect it actually makes it so that Marisa has less time in between dashes. Also, why the fuck did they change the reticule?

Dorakyura · « **Reply #276 on:** February 06, 2012, 07:01:32 PM »

and why don't we get 8 people since 980c :derp:

Helepolis · « **Reply #277 on:** February 06, 2012, 09:24:56 PM »

You people complain about her dash being nerfed, but it is actually Stardust reverie which got the sack you know? The extra damage distance had been nerfed as well, meaning you need to like kiss the enemy girl (or creeps) to deal extra damage.

- RL
- School (exams)
- Workdays/schooldays
- Not yet stable version

Give it some time, we had more of these moments in the past.

Amraphenson · « **Reply #278 on:** February 06, 2012, 10:06:16 PM »

A damage and range nerf I can deal with; it doesn't change the rhythm of playing Marisa, Hele. It just makes it a bit slower. The Dash being slower, the dash which cancels itself when you right click or do anything else, is a major gameplay style change. I'm not complaining about Reverie being nerfed because it's pretty minor in comparison to the Dash change; dash being slow as a turtle going uphill in winter is fucking me over more than reverie.

So, after discussions with many people IRL, Helepolis and Panda, I have gotten hold of an incredibly neat timeslot on the 25th of Febuary, my time. From 9am till 3/4pm, a nice store will be open which will showcase games on two XBoxes and, two laptops. Both Laptops belong to me, and after careful considerations with the higher-ups in charge of this event...

Defense Of The Shrines and/or Defense Of The Ancients...

Will be showcased to over 2000~5500 people in Singapore!

I actually hope to stream a lot more DotS then DotA, but if the audience complain "IAMNOTENTERTAINED", we switch to DotA. There is no specific theme(Like those oppai) for these matches, but I require at least 10 people(Not including me, one livestreamer/ref/commentator). More if we want to switch players in between rounds. Much like a tournament, I'll give each game a three hour timeframe at the very, very most(I really hope I spend 2 hours each so I have enough time to showcase other games on the laptop which aren't really played on the XBoxes!) It's being shown on two laptops, each connected to a projector which gives off a gigantic screen for everyone to watch/see. My group that is running this store, is the only one to be having such a large screen which is sure to attract many people.
-

Anyway, 10 people at least is what I require, and 20 people at most(enough to switch between games.)
I need trustworthy and solid people that,
Will not AFK.
Will not suddenly turn into Magna/RV and do stupid shit which surpasses even my faggotry.
One or two Observers to be alone in a TeamSpeak channel that can livestream, so we can hear dual/single commentating.
-

25th Feb, on a Saturday. 9am Singapoor time(Whatever the timezone is.)
Modes and bans/rules will be decided beforehand by everybody playing before the actual matches start. I hope we have minimal delays.
Also if I can, I would want to request for no teamstack, and not a one-sided game(Kinda obvious).

Helepolis, panda( and Pesco afaik), will be in charge of all this.

Pesco · « **Reply #280 on:** February 07, 2012, 12:18:12 PM »

You may not assume I'm in.

Helepolis · « **Reply #285 on:** February 07, 2012, 02:28:31 PM »

Pesco is just Tsuntsun.

We'll need to see first though about the timezones. 2am on a saturday is a bit crazy if my parents are around and decide to sleep early :V

Will not start arguments in the middle of matches. I repeat, trash-talking and so on will not be tolerated.
Will not rage and whine.
Will not suddenly turn into Magna/RV and do stupid shit which surpasses even my faggotry.

I laughed a little reading these

Doll.S CUBE · « **Reply #289 on:** February 07, 2012, 10:52:16 PM »

Hmm, I think I'm up for this but I'll let you know for sure when it's closer to the date, like, Feb 17 or so.

Amraphenson · « **Reply #290 on:** February 07, 2012, 11:15:24 PM »

Five pm to about midnight on Friday for me.

Count me in.

There shall be no dots. No more.

9am is 11pm here. Since it's a saturday, I may be able to attend one or two games, only that.

I've stayed up for 6 days once to play DotS with people :3 and I regularly used to skip days of sleep to play DotS back in the day :derp:

You damn NEET, get a job

shadowbringer · « **Reply #294 on:** February 08, 2012, 03:56:00 AM »

I would participate if

1) there's no urgent social event that saturday
2) people are willing to see my noobplay (especially after not playing wc3 after the ddos incident -- I like this word, incident, thanks to Reimu

) and our general lack of knowledge of strategy, team matchups, teamplay and execution (compared to chinese/korean players)

As long as there is no teamstack, noobplay is uhh okay.

Editing here to apologise if the post for the game event demo thing is pushy is any way. I really don't know how to word things besides bluntly for these kind of things. If we can't get enough, then I can just call it off. Also, I managed to extend the slot an hour earlier, so yeah. It's 8am(mytime) now.

tbax704 · « **Reply #296 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:26:30 AM »

Hmm, tell me if you lack people. I guess I could go to the local net center to evade lags and participate (with my full potential). Saturday is fine for me. But tell me, which version that we will be using?

CloverNaght · « **Reply #297 on:** February 08, 2012, 05:19:26 PM »

hope i can connect to bnet from some local net centers

Amraphenson · « **Reply #298 on:** February 08, 2012, 05:32:18 PM »

6 hour net center? Hardcore Akurou is hardcore.

Helepolis · « **Reply #299 on:** February 10, 2012, 01:26:43 PM »

Tomorrow I want to shoot the final scenes for my dots movie then try to finish it the same day or sunday. I do require 8-10 people for 4v4/5v5 fight with an utsuho ult. Otherwise we will become creative and find a way with lesser people.

I will be most likely ice skating in the noon so I want to shoot it either at 11:00 GMT+1 or later in the evening or something depending on available people.
