Any DOTA players in here? After holding off for ages I have just bitten the bullet and installed it and have played around 20 games so far.

Played a lot of HoN back in the day, and got up to near 2000 PSR, but started to rage too much (much to the GFs dismay) and got rid of it.

Username is CB3 if anyone is up for a game. Have been playing Lich, Lion and Dragon knight in limited pick to get used to the game and characters but I am getting to the stage where I will start branching out...too many noobs :P

i've been getting into it, but starting out is hard because you get lumped in limited pick or AP games with the new and just plain horrible players.

Have branched out into my old HoN players such as Mirana.

I like to play support/ganker any recommendations for characters?

One of the best ganker is Kunkka, one of the heroes I want to learn.

I usually use Spirit Breaker, he's easy to use. Just grab a BKB and charge in ;).

ok, so The International main event is starting in a few hours.

I couldnt care less about DOTA or valve or teams or whatever. but esports fascinates me in a mind-boggling kind of way. $20mil+ prize pool. over $18mil of that is taken from in-game purchases.

There are paid-entry screenings in each capital city in Aus. including one at Crown in melbourne for the final (kicks off at 2am local time I think), and for some reason I'm tempted to attend. I've watching maybe 20mins of a DOTA stream once before, but I think its just the draw that normal spectator sports have with added weirdness.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
