Made a purchase from the store, and I got a full witch doctor set for buying something. Is that standard or am I lucky?

You did? Might be an unannounced promo or something but the store doesn't have anything for witch doctor there at all.

casting for Absolute Legends would really love some support. If I do well I will get hired by aL to do their casting.

There's a one percent change you can can get an Unusual item. Unusual items have some wonky particle effects that can look neat.

The only two unusuals Ive seen was a bore courier that had some purple lasers shooting out of its eyes, and a sunbeams Jug dog courier.

Aside from that, all items that you unbox from the crates are Strange items which can only come from crates. They currently track numerous different things; from wins to number of omnislash bounces, to the amount of distance tidehunter has dragged his offhand fish/squid/whatever thing.

Yes, he was.

The worst part is people thought he was a new caster. He isn't.

Haha I'm reading that Reddit thread now.
That's awesome! Congratz on the position :)

Although goin by Avril is perculiar, why not Sinz?

Also do you have any VODs where you're casting, would like to check em out.

I've been playing under the tag Avril in scrims and what not so I figured I should go with that.

You guys missed me freaking out before the cast because I realized that most people wouldn't appreciate Avril Lavigne music so I had to panic to find a playlist

To put it more in perspective

>99% chance to get something of less value
<1% chance to get a virtual item that can be worth several hundred dollars

****ing tf2 man

Actually I was trying my best to get to sleep but had no idea on zNation. So I did my research on them. I was told I was casting aL vs zNation. I wasn't aware of my casting of the later ones. So i spent the following hours prepping for the cast. >.>


wanna play?

So I still had money leftover from my first purchase, so I just decided to buy a key. Unboxed an unusual Badger courier with burning animus type. Which is blue fiery eyes.



Zoomed in, but low graphics setting cause my comp is awful.

She didn't get much love in competitive play. She's a decent pick. Really amazing pubstomper though. Starsboba love her though

yeah chris you have to use shift+click to individually add them--then hotkey them, and you can recall the full group.

you have to close your dota 2 and restart it when this glitch happens

fun fact--i discovered this glitch when I picked up an illusion rune and then died bottom river because I couldn't get my **** sorted out and I got jacked while being confused
i was mad
