>micro$oft teams meeting in 1 hourYeah, i think I got time for a game of dota. Pretty sure. I doubt they'd even notice if I was playing.
is hoodwink d2g favorite hero
>>575498852She's the main character of Dota and everyone except r*ddit's favorite hero.
ALERT https://x.com/AugarTheFox/status/2081507693827866803
>>575499221>russian voices>no blink dagger on lunagriefing
>>575499221what am i supposed to be watching
>>575499539you missed not popping blademail and afk manta illusions
>>575478959you go mid and you just stand at your tower spamming horses, very quickly you will be able to take whole wave in 1 projectile, and because the lane is constantly pushed towards enemy they can never kill you, unless you are ganged and dived, but even then it's very hard to catch you with ult. then you buy dagon to secure kills in teamfights and the rest is pure utility items, so you are becoming pseudo-support for your core. the idea is that because you instawin your lane and you are a support hero, it allows you to impact other lanes faster and more efficient.
>won 7 of my last 8Am I climbing out of the depths now, /d2g/?
>>575500153You should've have posted this.I'm deploying the agents.
>>575499221how is this even clip worthy? you are a tard and I hope to god that isnt actually your profile you are a sick freak
>hood rat
>random safelane od with no ult at l12dota is not a real game, its an mk ultra cia experiment to test the upper limits of what humans can deal with
Has there been a single MMR Scam video that wasn't total dogshit grief pick
>>575502989i tabbed back in just in time to see him skill it and just instantaneously fucking blow it on our own teammate
>>575498852She's Reddit's favorite hero and we have a lot of redditors. White men of course prefer Marci.
>>575503238no she is 4channels favourite hero, it's kind of like reddit but green
>>575502989Playing OD at all this patch is euthanasia material. He wasn't good before they removed facets and he took a huge nerf across the board when they did. The "+1 base damage" shit they did last patch obviously did not move the fucking needle.>>575503102Doom one is pretty reasonableAll it really says is "don't build Radiance" but that IS legitimate advice
>>575503382I'm sorry to inform you 4chan hates furries. The recent claim otherwise is a result of the mass influx of redditor newfags.Besides, "green reddit" is kiwifarms
>>575503638if 4chan hates furries why is there 2 boards for furfaggotry?
my favorite part is when drow solos the lane at lv2
>>575503638sorry to inform u but *blah blah blah copy paste the same 4channel thing that u fags posted already for the past 999999999999 threads* yea we are so unique here and original nothing like anywhere else online anywhere on the internet
>>575503431Doom was Doom going from a 41% winrate to a 49% one and PP going OH MY GOD THIS IS THE MOST BROKEN HERO OF ALL TIME
>>575498852Ench is way more beloved
>>575503807that was transphobic dude don't say that "41%" come on have some respect
>losing in other game>just restart / requeue / quit out / etc>losing in dota>have to pretend that what youre doing matters for the next 30 minutes at risk of making your next hundreds of games even worse because of the goyscore systemits just not a fun game
>LD carry>13/0>loselol. lmao even.
>>575505004He didn't deserve to lose
>>575504908then go play a fun game
>>575504908play turbo and get friends loser noob, that's ur problem, ur playin solo queue, underneath everything u just said is a genuinely fun game, you wouldn't be posting here or have played it in the first place long enough to think about posting here either, the truth is ur a giant man child :^) kinda like the guy who posted immediately after u, another solo queueing faggot who comes in here to post about his complaints on his shitty solo queue games barely anyone cares about
d2gddit should be celebrating the game, they are campo's audience after all (see: dawn hood marci)
I-T-B-O-Y, B-B-N-O-dollar sign
how do we defeat newfags bros they haven't been browsing this website for 37 years straight like me we need to punish them, they are not as cool and badass as me you need to have been there since the beginning guys it was way cooler btw none of you here were there only i was so im like the coolest person in this thread ask me anything im so fucking cool guys
>broken englishProbably a shitskin.
>>575506681literally 1 word could be considered incorrect there: "they" idk what you didn't understand, they are calling you a loser, faggot
>>575506625Did you close the pool in Habbo Hotel?
>>575506625>>575506806>>575505205u mad bro?
>>575506681Seems like you're so trash it warrant someone to mention it on your profile. Embarrassing.
>>575507376Disgusting could mean like, so good, it's sick.
so the crusader blogshitter is actually russian...
>mason is below my peak rankgenuinely why would anyone watch this man
>>575507734He's clearly high-Archon.see >>575505004
>>575507789entertainment, not gameplay
>>575507810Sorry I literally can't tell the medals and rank order below legend
>>575508026that's because you're indian and can't read SAAAAAAAAR
>>575508026Give him like 4 more games and he will probably be Legend I
I miss being low MMR.
>>575508154>>575507810>talking about himself in the 3rd person
>>575508276>>575508154>replies a minute apartSamefag.
>>575508091>the low rank subhuman immediately turns to his monkey insults out of panic in the presence of a HIGH SKILL GODComical.
>>575508529you're doing the exact thing that image is mocking. how retarded are you?
>>575508652he's a 4channel user what do u expect, they are kind of like redditors, but green
>>575508652>I: discuss the game's rank system and medals>you: INDIAN INDIAN INDIAN SAAAAAAAAAAAR>also you: Y-YOURE ARE THE IMAGE!! YOU RETARDEDDamn, the subhumans that remain in this general, damn.
>>575509201Honestly I'm 29 and had to use a can-opener like that for the first time last month. Very confusing.
>>575509201ew why is ur text all green and smelly, maybe u should blow ur nose b4 typin, or like chew ur food properly so u dont vomit on it, ew it stinks!!!! bros do u smell that?? icky!... its slimey as well :/i wonder if it's flammable?
>>575509365so this guy is making fun of you for being older than 30 whilst posting on a website most people started posting on when they were like 12 and never left or grew up, go figure, i am literally right about the shit i'm saying
this is who you're arguing with
Just after reaching Crusader 3 I'm being placed in games where it's literally impossible to win, this was bound to happen eventually because lol forced 50% but it still bothers me though because I'm probably the best player on my team and I still have to lose the game because my teammates are retardsfuck this game honestly
>>575509201oh i forgot, that wasn't actually me, that was another person calling u out lol pwnage
>>575509656Play Luna / Sven / Gyrocopter and 1 vs 5.
then he realized he spend his whole life playing dota 2 and posting on /d2g/ and it was all a blur
>>575509967me in 50 years. NGL.
>>575509967i look like this
There's hope, boys.
>>575509891play medusa instead, she can actually 1v5 if your game goes long enough, no matter what, no question, she will dumpster cunts
>>575504908I had countless games where we suck penis early game then enemy doesn't know how to siege hg and we win because they just push into our base a couple times and all wipe there. Dota suprisingly has ridiculous amount of comeback mechanics, try to play league where game is unironically decided at minute 10 hence they have surrender button there
>>575510419>crusader: the postSorry but it doesn't happen in real games.
>>575510384She farms so fucking slow. And you don't WANT games to go late. You want to try to end by 30 minutes.
>>575510559im the best medusa player in the world i think i know what im talkin about lil bro
>>575505004your team could have won that 4v5 without you
>>575510285ppy gonna win as coach and he is pushing 40
>>575510945My 20k building damage says otherwise, but okay.
>>575505004Carried by QoP
>>575511042cope
>play only on euw server>get europeans, get a good match where everyone builds reasonably and communicate to each other>get russkies>pos1 jug has full vision on LC, LC walks up and duels, jug dies without using any abilities, 0/8 >pos3 magi duels anti mage without any help and a-moves him whenever visible, 0/7always a pleasure when i see those gibberish letters
What do you want me to do? Throw the game just because my team has a smurf? Why wouldn't I take the free MMR? Why wouldn't I support them in every way possible if they're clearly better than everyone in the lobby?
>>575509967>coolface posterbased
>>575510537sorry but this game and every other popular multiplayer game is tuned to fit me, crusaderchad, sweaty nolifers will have to just endure
>>575510537i agree with that guy. in league you can stomp your way into the enemy base much more easily than in dota, but naturally the absence of a surrender button leads to longer games more naturally. high grounding is much more dangerous and to be honest, a bit too hard at non-elite ranks
If you wanna go high ground: just go. And if they try to stop you, then you stop them from stopping you.Use ur brain.
Why's this guy such a cunt
>>575514746He lies. I have a positive winrate.
last night i won a 1h20mins game. we lost all our rax and then the enemy team decided to play like idiots and throw. i feel bad for winning. my carry was probably 1-2k mmr lower, did nothing the whole game, but still won.
who is favored to win TI?
>>575503719>what are containment boards
>>575514746idk never met him
>>575503719I know about /mlp/ but are we counting /b/ as a board for furry? Because there's furry drawfag threads on /ic/
riki counters bristleback because backstab negates bristlebacks passive
awww yea
>>575518985Nice, I love that Lina set
havn't thought of dota 2 in a minute and just remembered this out of no where. kino.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTrURSVXLMQ
>>575520413wow im getting old, the game looks way more fluid back then idk how
>>575521409i've not played in 5+ years but man this was so exciting I legit thought it was gonna take over the world and irl sport lol.
>almost 3k mmrDispatch the agents.
>>575520413>ruminous>nebu1aholy im old
I don't usually like the writing but I quite enjoy Slark
>be patient and tolerate people's mistakes, try to motivate them to do better by giving clear instructions>lose>start calling out these apes for being absolute fucking mental handicaps subhuman trash>aggressively ping them and laugh at their retarded builds and tell them to go die in a hole>win>mfw
>enemy picks druid wraith king>win all the lanes and chase them around the map the entire game>they still get farm because the map is still fuck off huge for some reason>inevitably lose because having a gold lead and getting good initiations doesn't matter when you're 7v5cool game valve!
medusa is sorelaxing(boring)
Drow is fucking broken. When are they gonna nerf this bitch?
>>575502047these are my favorite clips. all the variations of hoodwink getting pounded.
>>575527067>not getting meteor hammers and helm of dominator to finish the game before min 30>deliberately allowing woodchipper heroes to build up steamThere's your problem. It's not that it's 7v5 you just have no concept of capitalizing on an advantage. I bet your pos1 was jungling till min45 with bkb as a 4th item.
>>575505004why did you change your client to Russian?
>>575527096redpill me on manta dusa, everyone rushes it asap but id much rather start with a maelstrom
>>575527721every single hero that "needs" manta gets it for farming purposes, ever single one, no exceptions.
>be muted>nigger nyx denies my pos 1 farm>goes afk and ignores any stuns or fights>jungles all game>we lost at 10m because his nigger ass fed and i can't get farmlynching is not good enough for these faggots. when i get pops for ap i almost never lose, unless i get a dogshit nigger like this.
>enemy anti mage has autism>doesn't buy manta nor bkb>spends every fight perma stunned/rootedkek bur
>Windrunner doesnt move from mid in 15 minutes>just AFKs mid without rotating>doesn't even ult tower>fast foward min 25 tier 1 tower on mid is still standing>nigger unironically thinks the lanes getting raped is not his fault
>>575527721i rather have a manta late game than a maelstrom and with multi shot why you need wave clear?
>>575500153>lose next game after posting this on safe lane>following two games enemy team has support jungle batrider and support sniper>stomp both
>>575518560/trash/, the furry garbage bin.
>>575497781Can you play dota on vibes? I don't feel like thinking all the time
Team, can we lock-in? Just fight with me. Terrorblade mid was trash, pos 5 clock was a dumb idea, and idk how an axe lost to a luna-lich safelane. I was literally your only hope and I didn't get any support until we lost two racks.
>>575530947Just pick wraith king and constantly push towers.
>>575531162you need to farm more dude, you had 95 last hits in a 35 min game. stop blaming ur team and they have zero counters for a good slark
The behaviour score system is extremely fucking stupid and non sensicaleven if you dont type shit, you get points removed because you dont play like how jose wants you to. but telling him he is a fucking idiot for playing storm spirit safe lane punishes me.
What character feels the nicest to move around with?
>>575533586Weaver or Windranger
>>575531878Slark farms enemy offlaner not creeps. I was like 10-1 against this underlord. but when it comes to push high ground, i will jump in and no one will follow. So you get wacky ass death counts like this game. If they jump in with me the game will end at 30 min.
People who pick Rubick in shitter ranks should kill themselvesI have like 30% winrate with this useless nigger in my team fuck off
>>575492642>all it took was remorseposting in /d2g/ to break the loss streakAnd every lane winning.
>gone up almost 2,000 MMR since posting in /d2g/Can't argue with results.
>>575536832Oh no, it's another WIN LANE LOSE GAME situation
>>575527096still veryrelaxingboringbut relaxing
Guild rewards: COLLECTEDWeekly 3-win: ACHIEVEDDaily guild quests: DONEAaaaah, it's player retention time.>Nothing feels like telling "win lane, lose game" to an enemy 16-3-11 Ember Mid post-gameOh wait, the rewards. My girlie almost ready for makeover
>>575539938Bro your 10 Candyworks rerolls?
>>575540084Not quite, will get them, eventually
>>575511320honestly prefer RU to SA on my US-E servers.they can nahui blyat all game but they don't try to antagonize their team and run it down like the comms banned shitskins.
>>575497389Found it.https://youtu.be/eMw24W9YG-4?list=LL&t=562
>>575521409>the game looks way more fluidhow do you figure?it just looks like the same game but the animations all have half the fps.
Defence Of The Ancients... 2. It must be a really fucking compelling premise for it to have half a million concurrent players. Becoming a member of the League of Legends, too. Really sound like inherently gratifying concepts to me, things I could spent thousands of hours doing without feeling a twinge of boredom or regret.
I don't hate people for liking league. They have Draven. I just hate playing it more than I hate playing dota. So dota gets my attention.
I bet Windrunner is in the next act because Jen Taylor is probably easy to get ahold of and shooting arrows is something clowns do maybe
>>575526983>communicating at all
>>575542718>Jen TaylorJen's voice makes my pp hard
>>575542186i'm a tanky guy for you
>keep failing the Teamfight Initiation tutorial>pressing Retry crashed the game 3 times alreadyit's so over and I haven't even played the game once yet
>>575509091
>>575545237Don't feel bad, apparently they never bothered to update it after giving WK his innate so it seems to be borderline impossible, I can't imagine finding a way to save Lion
>>575545237Just do the ones that aren't broken. Sucks they never updated it.>>575547282It's theoretically winnable but you really gotta go out of your way to make sure to eliminate WK first and early, and use Ravage to save Lion when he gets aggro.
>>575527096>>575538163finally someone fucking gets it cunts, fuck yea \m/ just hit creeps all fkn game get 4 items end the game, win, its that easy ya fucken dogs
>>575547282>>575550016why is lion in melee range, that hero has like fuck all armour dum dums, maybe put the range hero in a ranged position?
>>575547282>>575550016Ah I see, it's tuned for older version of the heroes. Just found it funny that dota is so hard I can't even beat the tutorial.I've mange to beat it after some tries, by killing Enigma during stun and kiting bots away from Lion, else he instagibs from ghost guy.Is the actual game also this explosive and quick with dmg, disables or dying?
>>575547282>>575553385Nope, it's still possible the proper way. Tide is very tanky, get aggro and tank some hits instead of letting Lion do that
>>575553385>Is the actual game also this explosive and quick with dmg, disables or dying?Pretty much yes, with Lion it always is. Target priority is a thing
As an autistic sperglord typing test enthusiast struggling to hit 2,500 points on Automaton Attack, I am ~80% certain the game is simply not registering some of my keystrokes
>>575510537I agree with anon.High ground in pubs is always aids because theres so many misconceptions and bad plays that half the playerbase at minimun fall for.Shit like>Not taking rosh before highground>Not outfarming in their jungle then getting a pick.>IF rosh giving aegis to carry who immidiately jumps in on closest target>Never kiting just full send manfights>Godawful target priority>Wasting time with megas when the game can end right now.
>wake up>no patch
>>575557860This should be good enough to hit 2,500 right? I've been at it for ~30 minutes and have a high score of 1,840. I seriously think the minigame is broken.
>>575536060you are more mentally ill than psg
And Marci should be in the event too because Mirana has a set
>>575527423>you should just control what your teammates do so you can end the game fastI could suck their dicks and give them free health insurance and my teammates would still never in a million years listen to a call to end the game fast before everyone scales. that shit does not happen in 4k. everyone plays slow, they assume the game has to go to 40 minutes. the only time theres a stomp its when my team builds radiance and midases after losing all three lanes and gets shitstomped by the opponent having like an ursa or something that just kills heroes with no defensive items.I just lost another game to a faggy ass lone druid. you know what happened? my mid picked kez and built yasha kaya deso and never once listened to a call to hit bear so we could gank it and kill it. I chased the bear down with a drow behind me to try and kill it. Broke it's tp so it shadow blades. Dust it and it roars. Teammate doesn't follow. It has a second tp! and even if I'd wrangled my team into killing it, it just insta respawns. Some heroes are just designed to stomp low skill retards and I am chosen to lose this mmr.
>>575527096>>575538163>farm all game >doesnt even break 700gpm
>>575558191What if they patched in the middle of playoffs
>>575565606Like that time they released Grimstroke in the middle of a TI but instead they drop 8.00 while pros are stuck playing 7.41 lol
For transformation heroes specially dk and alch don't they ult off cd to farm faster? I'm watching a pov and they are only using it for fights.
>>575566538Good players do, shitters save the ults for fights that they never join
I wish Phoenix had good cosmetics I could purchase.I hate that all his good stuff is unavailable and I have to beg strangers online to trade me theirs.
>>575566538DK wants to farm with Red Dragon whenever possible, if a fight starts while you're in that timeframe you join, if a fight happens outside of that timeframe you play it safe and only pop in if you're sure to profit off it. After a certain point you do safe your ult for a fight and then farm after winning it.
>do overwatch case>carry destroys all items and starts running down lane at 1 minuteWhy are carrytrannies like this? They are playing the easiest role yet they still decide to throw the game for nothing
Are the discount coins in the Clownfall shop going to carry over to the 2nd act of the event or will they only apply to the shop of the 1st act?

After these 2 Alch carry games I feel like the Aghs gifting """mechanic""" has been the worst thing that has happened to Alchemist in the last 10 years.Pull up any Alch game in the Watch tab and you're gonna see some meme shit like pos 4 jungle, or pos """1""" that transitions to pos 4.

I’M 18-4-11 DROPPING 30 KILLS CARRYING THESE DOGS ON MY BACK AND THEY STILL FIND A WAY TO LOSE. How?! How do you have negative map awareness in 2026?! How do you miss every single easy fight?! Why the fuck are you typing “gg no team” when you’re the one feeding like it’s your religion?!I’m not bad. I’m not even tilted half the games. These mouth-breathing, window-licking, zero-game-sense retards are holding my MMR hostage. I swear to god if I see one more “I’m just having fun” feeder I’m going to break my monitor. This game is actually killing me. Valve’s matchmaking is a cruel joke and my teammates are the punchline. I deserve Divine. I’m better than every single one of these clowns.
>>575609358Okay. Post it.

I don't play this game anymore, but I still give people advice that worked a decade + ago.
prompt "Make an image of what a dota 2 player who posts on 4chan would look like".
>>575613987It's not bad, it can guarantee kills on your ult if there's only 1 other hero, it pairs nicely with your Q which deals % damage based on current hp which means it can also guarantee kills that wayBut honestly it depends on the state of the game, if you are getting involved in plays left and right it feels godly, but if the game is passive it fucking sucks and you feel like you wasted 800g
Do we really have to wait until TI ends to nerf Snapfire, Drow, Zeus, etc?
>>575610972Ok and Undying is also first picked/ban in 15k mmr. that's not a metric

YOU ROBBED ME OF MY SALT!!! i needed to see those fuckers seethe in the post game chat after we won an amazing comeback, its one of dotas or mobas in general greatest pleasures is to see the salt and seething in the post game
>>575623862Why not pick Skywrath, instead?
>>575624181Did you even taunt back during the game? Otherwise, no salt will be had post game.
>>575624528no you dont understand, the blame game itself will already be such a treat, i remember when we were pushing tier 4s after 4 man wiping them, the pos4 jakiro was crying on his fountain while in all chat and his cores was also blaming himfuuuucckkkkk dammit this type of shit is one of the best things about this game, goddamn fucking update piece of shit
>>575624915Nah, nah, the blame game is weak sauce.When you're winning, you need to ask, in chat, typing your own words, why the *prolific shittalker* on the enemy team has gotten quiet. What will follow is a genuine bruised ego nursing session.Take it from someone with over a decade of experience of getting under people's skin.
>>575624181>>575624915They should honestly make post game chat in game while the "DEFEAT" screen is on their destroyed ancient, that way there's still opportunity for the post game chat seething and the game only updates after you exit the defeat screen. Also seeing their ancient destroyed in the background will add more salt to the wound, even better if you're an item dropper like me KEK you're gonna see all those items on the ground
>>575624164HOW LONG YOU BEEN ON 4CHAN, NEWFAGGOT?
How do you objectively get good hidden mmr in unranked when every game is filled with : griefers, euthanizers, disconnects, abandons and smurf. I don't want to play meepo or broodmother 1v9, I wanna enjoy the game and calibrate where I belong. Instead I'm getting punished with low hidden mmr because of third worlders that can't control their shattered emotions and life.I literally need to make 10 accounts and autistically spam pubs until one account gets a good seed. One does not simply play and enjoy the game.

>>575617953The game constantly changes and some of the things I've learnt across the millenia years are actively detrimental to being a good player.Also, the mean skill improves. Literal retards were playing on Legends just some 10 years ago and nowadays fucking HERALS counterpick, correctly itemize, pull and know tricks. This wasn't THAT common in my Garena days even in high-skill play

>>575630048Oddly enough, it does not avail them. In my case, anyway. I used to be Ancient 1 ten years ago. Baptizing myself in fire for three thousand games, always randoming in all pick and enjoying ranked random and single drafts.I returned last December, and I am back up to Legend 3 and my winrate actually increased. All I did was start taking the game somewhat seriously.

whats up shitters. i kind of miss dota. did they ever get rid of that shitty patch 7.33 new frontiers map? how long's it going to be until they get rid of that thing? i want to play again but holy fk that patch was awful. are "neutral attribute" heroes still a thing?
>>575634514Send opendota/dotabuff activity calendar otherwise you're a LIAR
>>575633128i cant believe people think esports are real still. there was a bug in dota during ti10 where you could observe games without time delay and without fog of war. well known bug that probably happened once or twice for most people who played the game regularly. anons were posting webms of it happening to them frequently in the weeks leading up to ti10. HEY WHAT A COINCIDENCE TI10 IS MOST KNOWN FOR THE UKRANIAN TEAM RISING TO #1 OUT OF NOWHERE BECAUSE OF THEIR POS 3 PLAYER LANDING A TON OF CRAZY 100% "BLIND" SKILL SHOTS INTO THE FOG AND "CRAZY GAME SENSE" right after the ukraine war broke out.
>>575634487good thing i'm not looking for the validation of a single dotard raging around
>>575634514Sex with wyvern also they reworked the map like 6 times since then
>>575634843Send those webms otherwise you're just jealous he won a 41 million dollar tourney
fun fact: dota is the only game in existence that has skill-based-matchmaking and behavior-based-matchmaking where the community is in denial that forced 50 exists.its common knowledge on every other popular game with the same types of matchmaking algorithms.
>>575634907be honest with me is the game in a playable state right now or is it shit? im not a troll i just really disliked everything about 7.33. this is the only time ive ever quit dota and ive been playing since before icefrog.
>575635057go on arch b4k set the time gate to ti10 and a few months before then search key words like observer bug im taking a shit right now
>>575635367It's pretty good except there's like 5 heroes that are way too fucking overpowered and they're not releasing a patch to shitcan them for some reason (TI is no excuse)
>575635568do you mean like, counterable heroes that pubstomp in low level games or actually op broken shit? if its just busted game balance that's not too bad. typical dota stuff.moba game balance is like how dating apps are motivated to NOT match you with someone you wind up dating because they lose 2 customers: actually balancing the game is counter-conducive to getting soiface redditors interested in esports. if you actually balanced the game the high level "meta" would be boring and uninteresting. they're motivated to constantly tinker and pull levers that have no reason to be pulled. theoretically one could have an ever-changing meta AND balanced, well thought out patches regularly. but that involves a lot of work and let's be honest valve is a hat and ai training data selling company now.

>>575634843The Ukraine war didn't break out until after that TI had ended. It's why the True Sight was bittersweet that year. Also, there is a literal ref in the booths observing their games and everyone could listen to their direct comms. They would broadcast their comms. You can't be this retarded.
>>575641998wow you really proved cheating could never happen!fun factvalve contracts out a company called blueprint consulting services where they have an office full of jeets who do customer support tickets and in that office they have a small team of employees who's job it is to steer the direction of discourse on the game on message boards like reddit and 4chan.

>>575642509source is i used to work there (good luck figuring out who i am stupid nigger)go on facebook or linkedin and you will find tons of blueprint employees talking about their contract with valve(they're not allowed to and can get fired for it, but most of them are retarded)
>>575642697>source is i used to work thereThe grown up version of "my dad works at Nintendo".
this guy is lying source: I worked with him
>>575642393I apologize. You CAN be that retarded. TI10 was probably the fairest TI since the teams didn't have crowd advantage to spoil smokes plays and ganks. I assume their second TI victory was rigged as well. Which bug did Spirit abuse for that one?
>>575642838kill yourself blueprint fag

>>575642998you gotta ask yourself who's paying for these inorganic shill posts.hey can you explain why this is the only video game with skill based matchmaking where the community acts like forced 50 is a "conspiracy theory"?its accepted as fact on every other game, industry standard.
>calling (you) a retard>inorganicPretty sure you're so full of shit you can be used as fertilizer.
>>575643371>hey can you explain why this is the only video game with skill based matchmaking where the community acts like forced 50 is a "conspiracy theory"?Nigger literally everyone in here knows forced 50 is real, go to reddit or something if you want to wake up the sheeple.
>>575635520None are about Dota and I don't remember any webms from around that time, none for fog of war or enemy team or vision either, what is this stupid larp for

>>575643719What is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. If you want people to take you seriously provide evidence instead of being an annoying retard.
>>575643638who are you trying to fool?everyone who actually plays this game knows about the observer mode bug.do you even play dota 2? seems like you're some brown faggot in a blueprint consulting office who doesn't even play our game.

Your schizophrenia ain't sluggish, buddy.>>575643880The moment you jumped to "shills are out to get me", instead of providing evidence, you sealed your fate.This is the worst place to be a paranoid schizophrenic in.>>575644006It's knowledge we can look up ourselves. Knowledge you're offering, we can't find.
>>575643880Oh you're just trying to be funny, I doubt you were even around for TI10
>>575644082bullshit. most immortals climbed back when you could 5 stack for elo without penalty or during patches with super busted heroes. i played an account using residential static proxies so it couldn't be tied to my main and got it hard stuck in crusader once. i've played this game at the highest level, i know esports are rigged that's why i quit.
>>575644094>accuse the other person of being a schizophrenicisn't dismissing things you don't have an answer for and calling the other person names the thing that low iq sociopaths do?why are you so paranoid and worried about "the schizos" when you're clearly a mentally ill person on the psychopath spectrum yourself? you should worry more about your own mental health. you have the same type of mental disorder as ted bundy and ed gein lol.
>>575644714You know, you can just link the evidence yourself. Instead of trying to do a reverse on an autist with mild sociopathy who is immune to it.
Crazy how much the posts per hour picked up when anon talked about the observer mode bug and ti10 being rigged. I searched "observer bug" on arch b4k and the same shills were posting the same exact things the last time anon posted about the observer mode bug in /d2g/. How strange...
>>575644892you self admit to having two mental disorders. you're insane. your opinion has no value. lurk moar only redditors and shills use the muh schizo cope. its such pathetic worm-like behavior.
>>575617953Playing before role pick, each player getting their own courier, guides, neutral ietms, etc. was a completely different beast. Also, people like me that got those thousands of hours back in 2013-2014 played a really different balance and design. I picked the game back up quite fast when I came back this year, but it's still tricky to get back in the rhythm. Still climbing from crusader.
>>575644295So, you were an immortal player(lmao) that was put into the Smurf pool with the other immortal smurfing bitches? If that's your case for forced 50/50- lol lmao rofl. Did Valve ruin your account selling business because you're not better than the other smurfs?
>>575621442Rubick.
>>575645418>i played an account using residential static proxiesdid you miss this part or are you just tech illiterate? that means i played at someone else's house and on resi static proxies, on a computer that has never been associated with my main account. i took all the precautions to not be smurf pooled and my post explicitly mentions that. disingenuous faggot.
>>575626324Why do you care about mmr in unranked at all? Unranked is basically training mode now. Just pick a character, try some builds and chill out.
>>575621442Loli pugna
>>575645514VA is dead so I doubt he'll appear
before you ask why i was smurfing on resi static proxies i wanted to learn pos 5 without fucking up my matchmaking, while coaching a friend who is new to the game. there are ethical and legitimate uses for smurfing not everyone's an asshole.also pub stomping is part of dota. if you have a problem with smurfing i automatically know you never played during battle.net allstars era. so you're a nu dota fag and i don't care about your opinion by default.
>>575645745You get smurf pooled based on performance, not IP logs or machine IDs you fucking moron.
>>575626324unranked mmr is harder to get high than ranked mmr because it allows for way more sway in both average rank and the probability the algo thinks each team has to win that particular game. it'll throw low immortals in with crusaders just to get a lobby started if there's not a lot of people queing. if you're afraid to play ranked don't be its easier to climb mmr on there and there's a slightly higher % of people who actually want to win the game.
>>575645943He has a new one when he got the arcana.
>>575646285The arcana is just the exact same lines with a different filter
>>575646098i wasnt stomping games i was playing pos 5 half assed while spending half my time camera panned onto my friend watching him play pos 3 and giving him pointers.then i was like oh i have this account at crusader lets see how real forced 50 is and i tried to climb it after. also if you support smurf pools existing and you have a problem with smurfing in the first place you should just rope anyways. its just one of many examples of how valve fucked this game out and squeezed all the fun out of it in the name of muh espooorts. if you're somewhat good at dota every game feels like a fucking tryhard scrim lobby ever since dota 2. that's not how the game used to be. i remember the before times when dota was about having fun.
>>575646098so you're saying if a new player watches a bunch of bananaslamjamma videos or twitch or whatever, he might get flagged as a smurf when his gameplay improves instead of climbing in mmr like he should? i could see the root cause of the forced 50 some players really feel being the smurf detection being unreliable. im open to that idea.
>>575645745Not gonna lie anon. You should rather believe you were in a Smurf pool than>"I'm an immortal player that couldn't beat genuine crusader players"If I lost a game to someone a 1/6th of my mmr, I'd take that to the grave. You're either boosted or bad.
>>575646542I never said I supported smurf pools existing, smurfing should be completely allowed and it's a disgrace that Valve doesn't allow it. What exactly made you think I was defending it?
>smurfing badi never understood this. how are new players supposed to get good and develop/learn good habits if they only play with other new players, genuinely retarded people and griefers?i got good at dota because i got stomped in some bnet lobbies and made friends with the guys who stomped me, who then taught me a ton about the game on teamspeak and got me playing garena scrim matches against good players on organized teams. how are nu dota players expected to learn the game? banana slam jammer?
>>575646542All I hear is "Waaaah, waaah, I'm smurfing". Shut the fuck up about what being what "dota" is. You are like those faggots in MMOs that claim to love world PvP, but only ganks noobs in starting zones while full leveled.If you think mmr and ranks and 50/50 are bullshit anyways, just play unranked, you massive dicksucking whiny bitch.
>>575646830those games are 1v9 your teammates actively work against you. a lot of times they will openly say they are apathetic towards winning, or want to lose to spite you because of some perceived slight or minor infraction. (usually not joining a bad teamfight early game as the pos 1 or some dumb shit)
>>575646978Watching games? Following the guides? Playing unranked?So many ways besides being fucked by smurfs in ranked because smurfs don't play all that much better than the average player. They just know the counterpicks and the gimme team configs thaf allow them to pick meepo/broodmother/riki/PL and fuck someone's ranked climb.Go play unranked, it's right fucking there.
>matchmaker tries to match players with similar account levelThere, account buyers get fucked, smurfs get fucked as they quickly shoot out of the shitter mmr pool and get stuck in the observable smurf pool, and the legit newshitters get to play with other newshitters.I saved matchmaking, hire me Icefraud.
>>575646914Smurf pools should totally exist. Smurfing is for fags anyways, let them be smurfs in the fag pool with all the AIDS they enjoy.
>>575646914>smurfing should be completely allowed and it's a disgrace that Valve doesn't allow itretard alert
>>575646542>if you're somewhat good at dota every game feels like a fucking tryhard scrim lobby ever since dota 2.>>575644082>Forced 50/50 doesn't exist. You just hit your skill ceiling.Thanks for proving my point. Fucking retard. You're not good enough to keep up with better players so they seem like "try hards" to you. Of course you could get away with fun stupid shit in low MMR, it's low MMR. I could go radiance CM and win games when I was 1k mmr. Doesn't work in 8k.
>>575647065the only mmo pvp i do is oldschool runescape 1v1 brids, brid staking, small team size clan wars and wildy multi/singles on f2p and members. id say im easily top 10 1v1 brids but im definitely not the best theres some guys who are on another level.ill fully admit theres too much rng factor to call that skill based pvp. but i do only participate in formats where everyone's using the same gear. wildy some people will bring expensive items but you risk getting smited on camera and humiliating your clan for the advantage.
>>575647570no i CAN keep up with other players. quit being a disingenuous faggot.the question is: should every single dota match BE a tryhard game?back in the dota allstars days the pro players would use pub stomps and zero stakes for-fun scrim matches to experiment with new builds and strategies. that creativity and opportunity for experimentation is lost and basically inaccessible for people who aren't in the pro scene and have a bunch of friends to scrim with now. now you see everyone reading guides, following a meta, watching youtubers and not thinking for themselves. its had a noticeable negative effect on the community. i have a friend who's a cracked out pro level fps player. he can't just play fps games casually for fun anymore because his elo climbs so fast that every game becomes a sweat lobby. if you were actually a high level player like me you'd know this because you would have experienced it yourself. no1 cares about your divine ranked opinion.

>>575648007If you were actually high ranked you'd know you can do basically whatever the fuck you want in ranked and still win as long as you're not trash, or you can play unranked where no one gives a shit and do something even more retarded as it's a zero stakes for-fun scrim match.
THIS ISJ UGGERNAUTWTFHOW U TELL THAT
>>575647660I didn't ask for your life story.>>575648007PLAY UNRANKED. PLAY ANY OF THE CUSTOM MODES IN ARCADE, PLAY FUCKING ABILITY DRAFT.There are plenty of other game modes with way looser or even non existent mmr restrictions you can play beyond unranked.Stoo trying to gaslight people into agreeing to get fucked in the ass by you just because you are bored of playing with the kids your own size.Make a damn bot match so you and your butt buddies can style over as much as you want, if you just want a "casual fun" time.
>>575648439he wears the mask
>>575648386i know it stops mattering around numbered immortal. that means having fun and experimenting with builds is inaccessible for over 99% of players. thats my whole point. i know the game is better without these things because i played dota before they were added to the game.honestly if they would just fucking fix unranked mode we could have the best of both worlds.
>>575648506i never have and never will have any interested in custom games or playing -em. that stuff is not dota. unranked mode is unusable because of how fucked the matchmaking is. you would have a point if unranked wasn't complete shit.
>>575648664Queue unranked with low mmr friends and you get the wild nonsense rank distribution you want
>>575648819the only problem with that is the unranked matchmaking algo seems to not make any distinction between griefers and players who are just bad.the algo definitely can tell the two groups of players apart because it separates them on ranked, but it doesn't behave the same way on unranked. i think the unranked algo is tuned too heavily to lowering que times as much as possible and not enough towards match quality.i have 5 stacked with a full team of noob friends. the problem is it'll fill the other team with griefers and only maybe 1 in 10 games is a real match of dota. quite a lot of wasted time and pretty hard to convince 4 people to do with you after they experience the match quality.
>>575648506the other thing you guys have failed to address is that this have doesn't only have SBMM it also has BBMM.which means if you're a good player who rages at your team's shitters on the mic you get punished in match quality and forced 50 and the matchmaking algo purposely stops you from climbing the way you should for your skill, based on your "bad behavior"then they fill our lobbies with brazillians/russians depending on your continent, to bait you constantly. BBMM is a shit system and anyone who supports it should face the wall.
BBMM overly punishes the "extremely passionate rager who's good at the game and makes decisive but controversial calls" player archetype IMO. im not that guy personally, but everyone knows that guy. you might argue with him all game but he carries you to the win. then gets punished by the algo.
>>575648807I have played unranked recently and had a guy with literally 10 games under his belt asking about what buttons did what and some basic mechanical stuff and we all just explained to the guy and had a good time because the opposite team also had noobs and we won with a team with 4 supports. It was just fine. Why do YOU think unranked is "fucked up"?>>575649412I love the behaviour score because it's a retard filter. If you are too retars to not just shut your mouth instead of being a pissy bitch, you deserve to rot with the brazilians and russians.>Should face the wallAnd you should gargle my balls, you sniveling retard.
Behavior score doesn't even do anything, it's a placebo.
>>575649628Good, it's a team game with randos. If you want to yell on your mic and spam nigger on chat, go get some friends and do a 5 stack with you and all your butt buddies. Problem solved.
What's the best role for solo queuing these days?

lol valve abuses contractor laws so they dont have to give the fags they pay to shill these threads health insurance. imagine the life of some peon in bellevue washington paying way too much for rent to clock in every day for his shift of responding to customer support tickets and posting in d2g and then he gets in a fender bender on the way to work and his whole life's over because he doesn't have health insurance l00l
>>575646023ok so you're a boosted shitter who can't play support beyond a crusader level.
>>575651946most of them are soulless brown peons who commute 2 hours from renton/seatac/tacoma or are manchildren who live with their parents in their 20's and 30's. its really expensive to live around bellevue and they don't even give you guys health insurance...
lol imagine having to live right next to a major airport because your reddit and 4chan shilling job doesn't pay you enough to live in the city its office is located in
thread got really weird when this retard started sperging about ti10 with 0 citations.
>>575652473now im talking about how valve has a team of social media/forum shills who are contracted from the bellevue blueprint consulting services office and how they violate federal law by using contractors as full time employees and how pathetic the life of those people must be if they're one of the people who makes a career out of it and not just doing it as a shitter job during summer when you're at college. because they don't get health insurance and they don't get paid anywhere close to what it costs to live anywhere close to the office.
>>575652724what does this have to do with dota?
ranked up 3 stars these 2 past days then my sniper carry deleted his items i did a meme pick after and went radiance invoker and got low pri probably time to take a break
>it's another smurf lifestealer game
>>575648007You are genuinely retarded. Again, if you're losing to Crusaders as an immortal player. You are boosted, an account buyer, or you abused some meta OP hero. Also, you're surprised the ranked game mode is "try hard"? You're retarded. Go play unranked or turbo then if you want to meme it up. >back in the dota allstars days the pro players would use pub stomps and zero stakes for-fun scrim matches to experiment with new builds and strategies.Pros were literally just following a Reddit pub bro's HoD Heart Centuar build in EWC. Support Slark was meta for a while too. >>575648007>have a friend who's a cracked out pro level fps player. he can't just play fps games casually for fun anymore because his elo climbs so fast that every game becomes a sweat lobby. if you were actually a high level player like me you'd know this because you would have experienced it yourself.That's how skill based matchmaking works retard. You're mad devs won't allow your "friend" to go 100-0 in matches. Retard. Tell him not to sweat so hard on his initial matches. Change his sensitivity if he's doing too well. >>575646542>wasnt stomping games i was playing pos 5 half assed while spending half my time camera panned onto my friend watching him play pos 3 and giving him pointers.Fuck it. Circling back to this. You're mad you're losing games and hard stuck Crusader but you're also apparently putting no effort in then mad you're losing? You can't be this retarded anon. It's crazy. You're just mad the matchmaking isn't giving you a free win every time you click accept.Considering you're nostalgic for fucking DOTA All Stars. Please uninstall the game and do something more productive with your life. You're probably close to being age 40 and you're mad you can't hang around with the young'ins like the good ol days.
This guy on my friends list got 31000 points in the typing minigame. How the fuck is that possible. I can't even crack 2k.
so... close...
>>575656145Is the pause glitch still a thing?
>>575656279The agents have been notified.
I find it very unlikely that someone isn't smurfing with 800 games and is already 3k mmr.
>>5756566403k MMR isn't high.The 50% median is literally Archon. You just need to be better than half the population to accidentally stumble into 3k. 80 games into 3k, it could be a low-performing smurf. 800 games is just a normal guy.
>Support Ancient builds Witch blade>Mid Venge builds Array>Offlane DK doesnt buy a fucking daggerxdd
What's happening?
>>575617953>the game has been exactly the same for 10 yearsgo back to league baby boi i heard classic was coming out tomorrow
>>575645943That's actually really sad. I went and looked him up, he fell at his home and never recovered. He also did CK, PL, and Dean Domino in Fallout NV. Reading that, I can definitely hear Rubick in Dean's voice. Or vice versa.
people still care about mmr lol mmr only matters if your a number immortal matchmaking is so fucked up that it truly doesnt even matter
if your in a fucked up matchamaking algo you might as well just buy a new account
Technically broke-even today.
every time I see faceless void outside immortal draft he's a bot.but he's in every immortal draft game lately.
>>575648348That's exactly why it doesn't exist. All it does is match players based on a few numbers, their current MMR and behaviour score, which is way too little information, so you're subjected to RNG streaks.The matchmaking literally cannot account for someone's current mental state, or failing a knowledge check that will result in an entire game going down the drain.
>>575663695>The matchmaking literally cannot account for someone's current mental state, or failing a knowledge check that will result in an entire game going down the drain.yeah next you'll tell me I need a peer reviewed study on my claim that the sky is blue
>>575665012Come on. Everybody who talks about "forced 50" acts like Gaben is out to get them personally. Even though this system has to apply to everyone.It's just a coping mechanism, trying to discern patterns where there are none.
How much higher modern player's baseline skill level is compared to 5-10 years ago?I've watched early SC2 matches and it's funny how 'dumb' everyone was back then.
>>575665213>Even though this system has to apply to everyone.it doessometimes I'm the designated griefeesometimes I'm the designated grieferwe're all a part of the cycle and we all have to play our parts6 million years added to the kali yuga for every creep not stolen from my carry, for every point of health not stolen from my full hp support with sunder
>>575665213the system doesnt apply to everyone at all the matchmaking clearly has a algorithm for certain people
I got the pudge chain thing from the candy. I don't like playing pudge though.
>>575666398Follow up questions: how to play Pudge without hiding in trees for lucky hooks that might never come?
why is he such a fag
>>575666559feminine contamination from his pure sexo sister
>playing puck>dodge a hook with phase shift>it still connects to me when it comes backle ebin "skill shot".
>>575640997lol a grown ass manchild who saves girly cartoon pictures aimed at 5 year olds what a loser!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
oh no, I think I'm stupid
>>575666559Post the sister no one wants to see his ugly ass, only the sister
>>575631113When you play techies and see those mine attackers it's time to pack it up, you ain't bursting anyone in that game
>>575659337I only care about medals, I want ancient because it looks so shiny, divine and immortal medals look like shit
>>575666504Rush blink, jump in, ult them and last hit with hook out of ult.Passive pudge is worse than a ward because you stand in trees, its also 100% impossible to dominate the game this way because you are standing still in trees
>>575651946You are insanely delusional if you think valve gives a shit about a board on fucking 4chan, you ain't important bro WE are nothing to valve, lmao
