ENT in 2020

[EdteOfChaos2]

I decided to revisit ENT and play a few DotA games, just to see how it's getting on in 2020 even after moderation was discontinued. So I launched the old ENT Connect and joined a DotA game.

First observation: the teams are switched on countdown.
Now, whoever implemented this was actually so stupid that they made it randomize the players rather than autobalance.
I wonder what was going on in his congested brain when he decided to make it like this.

Not only does the new system randomly lead to even bigger stacks than previously thought possible, but it also leads to a whole new breed of moron. And boy are they ever stupid. There are still teams of 3-4 who play on ENT, but instead of just stacking together, they now wait until the countdown starts and join + leave over and over until they get randomly placed on the same team. This took over 30 minutes for one of my games that had a 4 man team. Holy fuck, boys. Thirty minutes just to play a stacked game on a dead server.

Second observation: I recognize most of the names. Zikaviruss, the worst CM in history, still here. That one guy with a weird name who only plays pugna and suicide rushes down the lane, yep he's here.

The games are even lower quality than before. Many players simply join and spam buy + suicide couriers. I'm not saying you can't have fun on this server, but be prepared for some massive stinkers. Average player quality is incredibly low, averaging the skill level of a 600-800 ELO during ENT's popularity.

Ent dota in 2020 is an experience unlike any other to be sure.

Tell me about the Reforged experience

Can't even fucking log in xDDD My friend was able to register cd key before me now the shit is linked to his account and i have to buy the game again

No-no, not spending money on reforged. Time to bring ENT back

Cracks me up my comment was up for nearly a week before being removed and it's gone now lol. I just wanna say this whole game is pretty shitty, no matter who's in charge at this point. Reforged had some serious potential, but Blizzard said nah we'd rather just push shit on you and pretend it's up to par.

Really weird they deleted your post, don't think there was anything bad in there?

I'm not buying reforged. Not going to support the business practice of releasing half-finished games.
ENT won't come back.
The reality of it is that WC3 is now dead.

Hi edge, much respect.
Have to agree with you. My sons are happy, since im not playing dota anymore. Ive moved on although the result is the same. Now im getting my ass handed to me in first person shooter games. Different game, same outcome.

[EdteOfChaos2]
