completely depends on the composition of your team and the enemy team and what items both decide to build and if the team opposing clinkz actually purchases sentry wards/dust/etc.

clinkz is more of a burst damage dealer while drow is slightly better at chasing and has a nice silence to help out in team fights as well as a global aura that buffs all ranged damage on your team

if they were both just shooting each other in the face without moving, clinkz would probably win if they had equivalent levels of farm, but that isn't really a good comparison. like all things in dota, the answer is situational.

i played a really fun game last night where i was tusk with a centaur, elder titan, magnus, and lc on my team. we destroyed the other team early game by all rolling up in a snowball in lane and mass bursting people down when we popped out. my first game as tusk too, actually.

A++ would play again

See what you mean, have been playing both alot but id have say drow is better in more sitautions and is by far easier to farm(hate clinkz atk animation more than anything).

TUSK!!! One of the funnest heros in the game, also falls off the fastest too. Despite being one of the bottom ten heros in the game, becoming an invincible homing snowball makes it all the worth while. Though i can never find a item build that works great for him, usaully go treads, shadow blade and than deso if i can.

Yeah I've had to use dosbox for a lot of stuff like that. Thankfully it looks like archive allows it to be run in a dosbox script they seem to have built into the site right now.

Anyone that's a fan of turn based strategy should play Master of Magic. My favorite game of all time.

For turn base stragey games i suggest final fantasy tactics, and gladius.

Fft you can get in th apple store but you need a ps2 for gladius.
Can assure you gladius is the best turn based strategy game ever.

I loved Gladius and FFT. It's a different type of turn based. No city development, spells, etc that I recall but plenty of leveling up your fighters. I also loved the old Jagged Alliance games, Ogre Tactics etc which do similar things.

While I did enjoy playing Destiny, I couldn't stick with it. Not really sure why in all honesty.

I may start playing some more Battle Royale in Arma 3. I've really missed it.

I got NHL 15 for the PS4 for Xmas from the in-laws. I decided not to purchase the game, but didn't feel bad suggesting it for a gift.

The core gameplay and graphics are solid, pretty much what I expected from the demo, but everything else is just terrible. Only playable gamemode in IMO is online 1v1, which gets old after while. It's pretty obvious Online 5v5 was an afterthought. I only played 5 games but everyone of them was either Russia vs Canada or All-stars. The bugs/glitches are pretty bad.

I didn't spend any money on this, but kinda feel bad that someone did...

the online 5v5 WAS an afterthought

it was patched into the game months after it came out

the only mode with any sort of effort put into it is ultimate team because it makes EA tons of money just by existing

it is still horrible because the menu system makes absolutely no god damn sense

ughhhhh

Yeah, the menu is terrible and unbearably slow. I don't understand what they were thinking there. Pretty sure their devs that made it just added a bunch of sleep statements to their code to troll everyone.

for those of you kiddos with ps3s kingdom hearts ii.5 is pretty good. the game itself isnt as good as the first one, and the tutorial/opening world of kh2 takes like 2 hours, but after that its really fun.

There's a rumor that 1.5 and 2.5 of Kingdom Hearts will be coming out on the PS4. If it does I'll be snagging both of them.

I don't know why I stopped playing Battle Royale in Arma 3. So much fun.
