Why doesnt anyone play old school heroes like viper anymore......

AM is pretty old school..

It's funny how I play a lot of AM games, but my W/L with him is only 30+%, the second most is Jugger, with 75% W/L. Other than Carry heroes, I love to play support WR and ogre magi. :)

speaking of old school,

Does anyone remember the days before N'aix's remake when he was the most imbalanced, hardest carry in the game? when he had a better version of skelly king's vampiric aura with a poison slow that went throw magic immunity, could infest a creep (was his q or something) and had magic immunity for like 10 seconds when lvl 16 (ult was avatar)?

THAT was oldschool.

Cheers,

Haha, yes.

More nostalgia: does anyone remember Ignis Fatuus?
No.. I remember there was a gambit.. Some kind of space marine. Insane invoker with 37thousand spells.

I think the fact that wards had no cd was fugged

Ignis Fatuus used to be Keeper of the Light's ultimate. :) A wisp-looking thing that could spawn minions for KOTL.

My signature hasn't changed since 2012. I should really update it.

OMG I totally forgot about that! Those were the days where you could pool gold for items, and that made kotl the most OP farming hero ever because the major wisp could split push like no other...
(the major wisp could teleport anywhere on the map, and to wherever kotl was).

I remember 8 minute radiances on a spectre because of that.

I don't ever remember there being a gambit hero, that must have been before 2006. Yeah...the original invoker was so, so overpowered it really wasn't funny.  I remember when double vanguard was a standard build on axe because the item gave like a 60% chance to block 60 damage...

I would totally buy a whole 33 alphabetical set if we could get them with the right rows! However I remember seeing a big picture of keys that Ragnarock had that I think were all top row keys only. :(

Update ranking vote. Please help me tell your friends or your country's dota2 community about this IC

update


Nice mockups! I really like the colours on the WR one. But unfortunately some of the others are kinda hard to recognise at that size.

Thanks :) Just using paint to edit it. When finishing the exam, I will edit with PTS, it may look better

If only there were heroes who started with the letters X and Y we could get a whole alphabetical set!

Lol, your idea is same as my friend's. But will you join us if only 5-10 heroes are chosen? Post your choices

Ohhh, okay.  I'll look into that then.  :)  Yeah, I prefer hard carry, but hahaha I know exactly what you mean.  All I know is...if my supports don't ward then...gg. lol It's sad sometimes I ward myself in pubs :/ which is def not a carry's job but oh well.  better than feeding.

Oh and I know about the ganks.  I think I look at my mini-map just as much if not more than my actual screen.  Anytime there is more than one missing, I back up.

:) More Drow, please!

Is that what, 5 for Traxex right? :D hehehe I really want her to get produced.  I will gladly pay for that. 

I like the 2nd picture, but I think the original one looks dope.  Remember though, that the lines won't be as smooth on the keycap since we only have about I believe 64x64 pixels or something? Something rather low.  So any fine details wouldn't show very well, fyi.

Good question.  I was wondering the same thing.  I believe he'll probably do price per key, perhaps a little cheaper if we add more?  I figure there shouldn't be a real max since the more we can commit to the more everyone gets it for cheaper anyway.  I hope.

But, he isn't going to produce every single Dota hero.  I think it's going to be from 5-10 heroes and we can choose from there, not sure how pricing will be, but probably start at certain price per key and may go down as you add more.

I think the ideal size for this set since there are so many heroes is 12, 13, or 16. Enough to fill most of or all of the top row. Simply stated, its $3 a key individually, but it'll be more like $2.50 or less per key for this set.

I'm probably not in for the entire set to fill the top row, and only use whoever I'm playing the most as my F1 and keep a few extra around for fun, but let's try to get as many as we can. According to the votes, can we all agree on:

Traxex
CM
Invoker
Wind Runner
Bounty
Morph
Pudge
Juggernaut
Sand King
Anti Mage
Tide Hunter
Lina
Kunkka
Shadow Fiend

And then two more? COURIER?!?!?

I will be getting Drow, BH, CM, Lina, Morph, Invoker, and of course the courier if we can.

Hey all,

I'vnt read through the whole thread, so this may have already been discussed or not.

Have you thought about caps for items also?

Don't get me wrong I love this idea of heroes, but wouldn't items be as easy to visualise and more applicable? (ofc you won't be playing the same hero/items every game but just a suggestion)

Personally, I don't really want a whole set.  I can't justify paying $40+ for a whole set of keys when I know I'm only going to use 4 on my top F1 row.  I mean sure, I could collect it, but half of those guys I don't really pay.  Either way works though, although I think the set idea may end up being cheaper.  We'll just have to see.

Okay well unless anyone objects we'll go ahead and offer them separately then. For Imsto's sake please don't just order 1 of ___ champion. I'll drop the least popular ones if they get almost no orders.


If you guys want to set up a poll you can or I'll just run with the list Sifo posted and post those up.

You should! She's a lot of fun, but squishy, and she's tough at early game.  Also, good luck on getting last hits early game, animation takes very long.  But yeah, great character, just no solid escape, so never get caught out of position.  But her slow is really intense lol. Anyways!

Ragnarok

I don't mind, depending how much the set costs too.  I don't want to change the whole opinion and set up of things incase others wanted the full set, since I don't mind collecting them anyway (and trading later maybe :) )

Plus, $40 for a set of custom keys is not that bad, just prefer a couple of heroes. 

Also, +1 for the TP and Courier key.  That would actually be dope.

By the way,

Anyone check Feng's new Dota 2 key? SWEEEET :)

They have to change name due to copyrights, but then, everyone know what Traxex is! That annoying ***** with frost arrows early game, if she has a babysitter she can be annoying as hell!

Frost arrows early is debatable early game.  If the enemy is too harassing or too buff in general, better to get precision aura to help team mates and get better last hits and farm.  Plus early game 11% slow is negligible.  Its that 60% that gets you kills.  Silence is a must early game as well, for gank assistance.  If you have all melees though, frost arrow is better.  All depends if you have a lot of ranged on your team too.

Oh and if you are an oldschool Dota fan, she was way more well known as Traxex, not drow.

Frost arrows early is debatable early game.  If the enemy is too harassing or too buff in general, better to get precision aura to help team mates and get better last hits and farm.  Plus early game 11% slow is negligible.  Its that 60% that gets you kills.  Silence is a must early game as well, for gank assistance.  If you have all melees though, frost arrow is better.  All depends if you have a lot of ranged on your team too.

Oh and if you are an oldschool Dota fan, she was way more well known as Traxex, not drow.

I don't get why she's played so much. The buffs did nothing to remedy what made her so bad before: low hp, low armor, no escape mechanism. They buffed what made her good: OK dps, increased the slow. But honestly, clinkz does DOUBLE her dps at all points in the game once he has his ultimate (strafe active) and equal when strafe isn't active. (they are roughly equal between 1-6 as well).

Getting her aura early is bad because you're forcing your other lanes to push, especially the mid and hard lane (unless you don't keep it active, at which point it's a waste at lvl 1). IMO, she's still a terribad pick that will not see any competitive play as long as clinkz is in the pool. And if you can Dendi pudge...yeah it's just bad for trax.

Drow is so boring to play, I don't know why people love her so much. Right click and right click and right click...

And yeah, I almost always pick Pudge when I see a Drow on the other team. People love to stand and auto-attack - easiest hooks.

My signature hasn't changed since 2012. I should really update it.

Agree, but It could be fun if you get "mad of madness" and "armlet of mordiggian" for her. And I always pick Rubick when I see someone pick Pudge on the other team :P :P




Also, +1 for the TP and Courier key.  That would actually be dope.

Merp, I'm late to this party. Meepo keys would be great though. Or a blink dagger key.
