Hey guys,

I'm going to start putting together an event schedule. What events would you like to see?

If we have enough people, we should try a SDAM tomorrow (Single Draft, All Mid).

This game involves a 5v5 match in Single Draft mode. Every player must attack the mid lane (No jungle, no top, no bot)


What events do you want to see?


  • SDAM
  • 5v5, Anything goes
  • Newbie Night (training)
  • -wtf mode (infinite mana, no cooldowns, no stunners)
  • infinite gold
  • start at lvl 25
  • all <gankers / inits / carries / etc>

i wouldn't mind in-house 5v5's anything goes, i love those, i rarely play with eGO members to begin with, even all randoms, i don't mind all mids... but they can get annoying.
 
Have never tried SDAM but it sounds interesting, if hectic!

I'd love some all-random events, as I believe the only way to play AR is via custom games right now. I need my fix! I hope they also get around to adding the mode where when you die, you get a new random hero, that was a blast to play.

What exactly is an "anything goes" game?
 
We should definitely have some kind of Newbie Night, where we can get as many people together to play (easy-ish bots to replace any open slots) and play games more about teaching people the ropes instead of a straight in-it-to-win-it game.
 
I think training would be really beneficial and basic strategy techniques.
 
If you enable cheats and type "-wtf" everyone playing has infinite mana, and no cooldowns on abilities. Fun to play with friends
 
Here is a list of fun ideas (in no observable order):

1. wtf mode, no stunners or anybody who can attack everyone at the same time
2. All carries - this would be awesome! (no sniper)
3. All gankers or all support - not quite as awesome as all carries
4. Everyone at lvl 25 at the start of the game - enable cheats and type "-lvlup 25"
5. Random draft mode - just came out in test build, should be official by 4/13
6. Death mode :o. Check it out on the wiki: http://www.dota2wiki.com/wiki/Unreleased_Content
It's not out yet, but when it is...

And that's all Ge0rge and I came up with today; if anyone has any other ideas, I'd love to hear them!

Edit: I think I meant all random mode... that's not out yet.

It might be fun to throw in some infinite gold every once in a while as well, overlapping with many of the other ideas: 5v5 with infinite gold, SDAM with infinite gold and all lv. 25 chaos... etc

And for the event teaching new people to play, if we wanted to make it more competitive we could put one experienced player on each team to act as a team captain of sorts, they could direct their team with strategy and builds so that the new people can learn the game while still trying to win. I think that if we had an event like this it would be fun for both the experienced and inexperienced players, which would be nice because sitting through lessons when you're new to the game is never fun
 
@Ge0rge captain's mode with 1 experienced player/team perhaps?
@Citan all super hard carries. I've never played a game like that. Everyone would be fighting for gold and experience, etc...
 
Please continue to let us know if you have any more event ideas. We love to hear from you!
