[Command]Lets Duel!

[Bloody_Wolf]

Hello all DotA players.
Sorry if my english suck, i still learn english.

Story: I have thought of making a dota duel for allies. It will be fun and kill some time when all of enemy towers destroyed. Type a command -duel # (allies's number you want to duel with) and sub-command -ok to agree and -no to reject (these commands only works if you have been requested to duel). If the duel takes a long time, you can type -cancel and your dueling friend can type -ok or -no.

Explanation:

-If 2 allies are on duel, they cant be targeted with support skills from other allies (like Purification, repel, mekans, etc).
-If 2 allies are on duel, they can still be attacked by enemy.
-Duel cant take place in the base. If your duelling friend go to base when still on duel mode, duel mode is canceled.
-You can attack and cast spells on your duelling friend and the damage is as hurt as you attack or cast spells on enemy.
-If you or your duelling friend die, his exp and money doesnt reduced and will be revived instantly on the fountain.
-"xxxxx died on a duel with xxxxxx" should display if you or your duelling friend die.


Pros:
-For fun
-If you have some hard feeling on your allies, you can take a revenge on him. You'll also get some exp if you win!

Cons:
-Will lead to flames and hostility
-Dont know anymore

Thanx!
Any sugestion will make this mode better!

Well let's think about it, is it only enabled after all towers destroyed?
If yes i think is pretty much useless, because game will end shortly , which means there will be almost no time for duel.
If no, this could be abused on allies , just imagine: game starts. Blue asks duel for Teal, they both acept, and teal gives a free kill to blue, giving him free exp which lead to a ruined game.
As i have stated, if yes - it will be totally useless.
if no - it will ruin the game
So in my opinion this a T-down, but you can always change any fact or do another mode for duels, i don't know, but as it is, no.
Hope this help.

t-down, dreamknight basically said exactly what i was going to say -.-

[refi]

-DotA isn't one-man game, but teamplay
-Abusable(even small exp helps, and support duels with carry, dies, repeat, ????, profit
t-down

You know, its just 4 fun

[noob_smoke]

T-Down, you don't have time for duels when you play dota , but this could be an Game Mode , and i totally disagree the idea with "Bonus XP" when you win becouse you can duel with allys and get lvl very fast (OP)

[CaLLizeR]

This has a huge potential to prolong the game. T-D

[LostFlip]

remove + exp.

I agree with this point.
You don't have time for duels in dota, so basically this is just aplicable on pubs, in my opinion this should be a sub game mode or a normal mode that in every "xx:xx" minutes there will be a random/ally duel , that's up to you now.

[Bloody_Wolf]

Ok. Removed the exp gain.

Wtf also aplicable in pubs right? Have you heard DotA WTF tourney?
The real point is, and same as WTF game mode, is fun

[SirOchsen]

its just for fun ...

-> t-down

[kitchen]

You'll also get some exp if you win!

Sweet! I'd just duel my support all game long. What an exciting prospect, carries killing their teammates all game in their bases.

Wow, you are one of many people that thought DotA is for find enemies and scream like banshee when you lose, aren't you?
If you quite disagree with "Dota is for fun" you should quit it and live a real life. Seriously.

1. You cant duel in your base
2. No exp gain

Hope this make you awake

[kitchen]

Erm it explicitly says in the Pros section that you get exp if you win. So, yeah...

And okay, you can't duel in the base, but the point is that it would be completely broken and supports would inevitably find a way to feed themselves to their teammates early game especially. What's supposed to be an ally fighting an ally would turn into a sacrificial experience ritual. Which is bad.

I like it but-

Gold and exp gain should be disabled, to prevent abuse.

Should be only activate-able in the fountain area. If this can be done anywhere, anytime, it can be abused as a deny function.
