Finally finished the last quest line for the Battle Pass, the DK one was by far the toughest!
Soldato
Is the battle pass worth it this year?
Been passing it up so far.

Yeah it's fantastic, basically answered all the complaints about the last one.
Enjoying playing in a minimum 3 stack unranked. Also had a good 2 month break from the game.
Every patch has their OP heroes for sure and OD seems particularly bs.
Don't know if it's just us being terrible but it seems really easy to throw games
Losing one massive team fight at the wrong time and the game can be over.

I think that's mainly because at lower MMR people often forget to have BB.
I'm no means high MMR, 3.5k but the amount of times my position 1 has died and then not had buyback resulting in the game being finished, or close enough to finished is silly.
As for enjoying Dota, definitely play with friends. I can't stand solo queue and never play it anymore, it's just not an enjoyable experience for me.
3 stack is decent enough.

I'd love to play in a stack, but I can't find anyone to play with. I think a lot of it is probably because I suck and so it's hard to find people my level that I WANT to play with...
I wish it was as easy as just playing with friends, but it requires having friends that play Dota and that are willing to play with you.
How badly do you suck?
Im still new, hovering around 1.3k party, wont even mention solo as its a joke..played about 60% of all the heroes so still a lot to learn so don't mind playing together! Got a few friends that play but I also play at weird hours, mostly late.
If you want add me http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197965145309/

My play time is too inconsistent to get a stack but if you can it's the best way to play.
For a while when we had stacks going with people from this thread it was fun and a better environment to learn.

I don't have a party MMR as I only play solo (as mentioned).
My solo MMR I think was in the 1.3k region, but I've not played ranked for ages.
Soldato

, my friends are fairly newish xD, I did try haha.

Finished my all hero challenge 
5 games better than world average but annoyed as I was 20 games better than average with 3 heroes left and got Luna (who I'm good with) and Husk/QoP both of whom I'm solid with.
Took me 15 games with the three of them, constant ******** teams where no matter what I did I couldn't win. I played with a 4 stack who I must assume we're early mid/teen Brits who just fed and just kept typing it was "great banter" wtf? By 20mins I think it was about 39/6 (I had 5 of our 6 kills) to the opposition.
Got there in the end though!

I actually rather enjoyed Brewmaster when I expected to hate him, get blink and you can cause complete chaos very fast and his ult is situationally useful for either upping your damage output or as an escape ability. Not payed him much beyond my challenge but he is more fun than you would expect.
Everytime I think about starting the all hero challenge, I realise my first hero is Brewmaster
I'll swap ya, mines Morphling

Low priority cos of a power cut! Not happy.. lol
Soldato
Ive restarted all hero and got the first 2 down.
Never played DP since the new patch and she's pretty powerful, pre everyone stacking BKB against you I was rolling through 3-4 of them at a time with my ult up, the health leech and then dropping a crypt swarm. Ended up 14/1/10 was impressed

DP is OP as hell right now, BKB doesn't do much against her since both the leech and her ult go through it.
