Bastard hosts.

This is why I exclusively play in my own games. I refuse to not be host. :/

I haven't seen it... I suppose because most hosts know that when you have 1 person leave, you will have at least one other fucker that freaks out because 4v5 "isn't fair" and will leave also. Then a 3rd guy is just like "rm? Jizzstain...has left the game" and then your game is over...

There are still plenty of leavers and there always will be, but CK'ing? I suspect a CK maybe once every 10 games.

I'm getting an error trying to log in to B.net, is it down?

There is a new WCIII patch with balance updates. I got the error last night saying, "Download Failed". But, I exited the program, gave it 5 minutes, tried again, and it DL'd just fine.

wild_whiskey · 07-02-2008, 05:49 AM

The new patch fixed a shitload of things for me on the Mac OS X client, but apparently it fubar'd the rune spawnings. I see there's a 6.52e. Perhaps that fixed it.

The Dauntless One · 07-03-2008, 12:00 PM

my left thumb feels so useless now

darksensei · 07-03-2008, 12:34 PM

It didn't fix the runes.

The Dauntless One · 07-03-2008, 01:15 PM

Whats wrong with the runes? I only played one game after the new patch (which was late last night).

darksensei · 07-05-2008, 07:57 PM

They seem to be randomly vanishing.

The Dauntless One · 07-12-2008, 12:54 PM

Sweet 6.53 just came out.

chu · 07-12-2008, 07:48 PM

Yeah, with a new hero named Rattletrap. It's a melee str-based hero.

I'm not too fond of him. I think he does well early on and in midgame but in late game he just doesn't have much to offer.

wild_whiskey · 07-13-2008, 11:43 PM

So I couldn't 1v1 a lvl 25 Rattletrap as Lycan with 2x heart, vlads, S&Y and bfly because of his damn constant stun - he had 2 bracers, SNY and treads. No joke. I must be doing something wrong.

The Dauntless One · 07-14-2008, 12:49 AM

BKB? I haven't played for the last 2 weeks or so because I was on a road trip but if his stun is magical BKB = dead hero

Aamina · 07-14-2008, 01:11 AM

Ministuns (sniper) and random AE target (Leshrac's Secondary) usually go through BKB. My guess is it does go through. BKB never removes you from a target list, it just makes you immune to targetable magic like Finger. The best way to take out the clockwerk I've found is to just time him down. You know what his strategy will be EVERY time and the "lol lock you in with me" has a bit of a cast time. I manage to dodge about 4/5 times. If you get locked in it is indeed complete rape with the ministun. I think it needs to get hit with the nerfstick, but for now I don't find it too annoying to rape with some pure damage character like silencer or enchantress while he runs around trying to get you into Power Cog Arena.

The Dauntless One · 07-14-2008, 01:49 AM

Avatar makes the character immune to all types of magic. Whether or not it removes the the target from the list or not, it will take no damage from magic. Both abilities you mentioned are not MAGIC based damage. "Mini stun" can be based off of abilities like bash (physical) or sleep/thunderbolt/etc (magical) and the mini stun from sniper and MKB are based off bash. Diabloic Edict deals physical damage so it goes through avatar.

I haven't played 6.53 yet so I haven't even touched Clockwerk goblin. Seeing that the Clockwerk goblin is a STR hero I'm pretty sure the mini stun is based off bash so BKB won't help.

Instead of getting a butterfly, you can try using an orchid instead. If you get the drop on him with a buffed up lycan you'll eat him alive. It has a short cooldown and extra damage to boot.
