Dota 2 meepo quickcast fishing

General Discussiondo you use quickcast?

just saw a thread about skywrath scripting, and people talked about quickcast inside, so it made me wonder, who uses here quickcast? and for what?

i am for example uses all the abilities on quick cast (q w e r d f) besides relocate and dark rift.
and the 3 last slots of items (alt-z alt-x, alt-c)
The only thing i am not using quick cast on is the 3 first items slots (z x c). i find it much easier to use the keyboard to click while moving with the mouse, better aim and reactions (maybe it relates to that i used to play OSU! in the past)
in the items it’s like that because i find my hand getting less tired being in a palm shape, hovering over the z x c alt (like when hovering over q w e r d f) than having to constantly reach to the desired key with the default z x c v b n

also i usually put the items i usually want to self cast on the first slots so i can double click to self cast

I have it customized for every hero. For 90% of the abilities I have quickcast on because its just generally better. The only abilities I don’t have on quick cast are things like brood webs (where you don’t need to cast it fast and want to make sure you cover specific areas) or teleport based abilities like NP teleport of IO relocate because you cant double click to tp to base if you have quick cast on.

I don’t have any items on quick cast since some items I really don’t want on quickcast (TP for example) and the rest just feels awkward to me.

blink hex abyssal halberd orchid medallion quickcast are mandatkry to me

Oh yes yes I forgot that relocate is also on cast
I was before “wait why does set keys for specific heroes enabled?”. That’s for relocate and dark rift
But tp is on quick cast

I don’t like the idea of it. I actually consider it unfair. It shouldnt be part of the game.

It is one of the reasons tinker and meepo are broken too. You cut short the delay that is in place for other people. Which is the standard way. Only that should be reason enough to nerf it greatly or get rid of it

I feel like its fair because anyone can enable it at any point. If you don’t have it on its because you chose not to. And yes I know it takes time to switch over to quick cast, I played the game for over a year with default cast enabled before switching to quick cast. It took several games before I got comfortable with it but it was worth it.

yeah it takes like 5 games.

Idk it was immediately easier for me, i actually struggled using the mouse

lol the fucj is quickcast is that dota fir handicapped people

sure man i prefer delay on thinngs i coild cast instantly

also most pros are handicapped, apparently

i use quick cast on tiny

It is one of the reasons tinker and meepo are broken too. You cut short the delay that is in place for other people

i dont even use quickcast on tinker

The thing is, quick cast should only be an altetnative, NOT a way to bypass constrictions by the system. Thats why its unfair even though it is available for everyone.

For example, it could be made fair preventing target made skills from activating immediately, including a fair delay of lets say 0.2 seconds from which you could gain 0.08 from using the standard way and being fast. But thats not the way it is currently. You bypass the delay you have from selecting a skill and targeting, lets call it animation by using a mental process of activation, quickcast.

You can clearly see this difference in real life and its proportiionally related effects in dota – i believe.

Now, when you seenit from this perspective, do you think it is fair and should have a place in the game?

A simple example is football where instead of winding up and shooting the ball where you aim at, activate a shot by seeing where you want the ball to land without the kicking motion. In other words, completely unfair and with no place in the game.
