Oh god the sodium levels are high

@ravensshade: Pretty much nothing. Maybe the lights should explode in the start to prevent spotting enemies beyond reasonable ranges accidentally.

I love these nonspecific one-offs.

That's just what happens when you try to play the Moba with the Highest learning curve Casually.

A Frozen/Dota parody song that will hopefully cheer up anybody on a losing streak:

@Geary: He did try LoL for a while, but it seems he eventually decided he liked Dota better. The strips: http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/1234 http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/1235 http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/1237 and http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/1242

Jo, will you play Pillars of Eternity?

You could always try some of the different game modes if you haven't already. Alternatively, find some friends to play with and talk with them while playing.

If you don't feel like your skills aren't doing so well in Dota2, then try a little bit of luck!

Go for Ogre.

@Dave Warren: No specific game. General gaming QQ. Claiming everything that "counters" your character is OP.

All you need to win in this patch:Diffusal is no longer a UAM or orb. Build it as a second orb on all agility people. Troll + helm of dominator+diffusal=game is over

troll in general is strong as balls this patch

try to have / pick certain counters :D

I usually just ward sentry the whole map in my baddy tier.

(Cont.) For new players it just confuses them and gives them an inaccurate impression of the the game at large.

URF is something of an inside-joke, and Jo is outside of the clique.

@Geary: Events like today's are mostly for veteran players, since they have enough experience to understand exactly how URF departs from normal gameplay and appreciate its novelty/absurdity.

Today's comic is essentially a sequel to this comic:

A very, very, very belated sequel.

@Dave Warren: It doesn't have anything to do with any specific game.

It's a humorous juxtaposition of class-building mechanics from video games in general and evolutionary specialization in the real world.[/explainingthejoke]

Jo, you should play LoL, at least for right now. They're currently having their 'April Fools' game mode, Ultra Rapid Fire, where everybody has stuff like 80% cooldown reduction, zero mana cost, and a giant movement speed buff.

Could some friendly reader tell me the context on this one? Hearthstone has flying now?

@Nya-chan: for maximum skill all maps should just be X amount of alleys.
Don't play your stupid clicking tanks. Don't hide in your TD's. Am i missing something?

I've had streaks as bad as that. Go random, until you are carried the curse doesn't seem to go away. Go sup, initiator, have fun or something since you know you'll lose.

I once had a 14 loses streak (including some games with my friends). That kind of experience was actually beneficial to me: I'm no longer angry or sad about losing a game

Had i the time and friends alongside to do it, i would pick up a history book, and translate it to something like this..... can't imagine "and so, the Beerfest lost to Vodkatonics, because they had no frost-resistance"

ASDF I can't change my name, anyway.
I would be open to coaching you if you would like Jo, as long as you're as trash as you say, as I am not amazing.

"Another fucking arty, enjoy your RNG clicking, bet you don't even CW."

War never changes. (Feel free to substitute with any long distance class. Like snipers etc.)

Ha ha ha is funny because they are extinct.
