beats me

i have no opinion on account of the fact that I haven't played dota in over 10 years

Who cares

I thought millions of dead russians would fix the game, but no, Dota will never be good again until they actually make matchmaking fair. Its impossible to gain MMR without patch abuse

Imagine if your ult was Witch Doctor's... heal... except it disarmed you and silenced you.
No stun, no damage potential, hero needs massive number boosts or he will continue to suck.
>>
I feel a little overwhelmed thinking of getting into this game but I'll just pick characters and items based on vibes and see what happens.
>>
>>728886080
If you're ultra new I recommend these three characters to learn the roles
>Dragon Knight safelane or offlane
John Dota, the most vanilla boring hero in the game, does a bit of everything. Will teach you half of the mechanics in the game, and is really forgiving because of free healing
>Crystal Maiden hard support
to learn that supports aren't sissies, they are the strongest heroes for most of the game with insane spells and kill potential but need good positioning because you die to a sneeze
>Razor 3 or 2
You can literally build anything on him. Smash your head against the keyboard on the shop and you'll have a viable Razor build. He's my favorite.

or just pick whatever you feel like lol
>>
I think he’s made by known scammers who commit false advertising and fraud.

Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

And the fact that it doesn't even make any sense. His attack animation is a front kick, but he supposedly can't attack because he is playing banjo.

Design and execution team didn't communicate at all, so it seems.

>>728887874

You know it has a 2 second cooldown and you can end it anytime right?
The point is you weave it inbetween your other skills CDs
Its numbers are ass though I agree.

Seems like a hero just for the sake of adding a hero.

Alright /v/, I assume you're all Immortals and above, so what's the proper way to play POS 4? I've been seeing a lot of back and forth on
>the pos 4 is supposed to rotate early, by 6 minute rune at the latest, if he's still in offlane he's greifing
>the pos 4 is supposed to sit in lane and dump all his health and spells into stopping the enemy pos 1, if he ever leaves offlane he's greifing
>>
>>728888102
it's a MOBA, when is this ever not the case
>>
>>728884880
He's a tight nigga, but idk. It's just good design but it's not eye catching
>>728885151
>le generic coombait design (x infinity)
Good character design for coomers, but League is sloppa-tier with so few themes outside of some well made niggas like Jhin that the game in general suffers for it. Lowest common denominator slop is cancer, considering dota is already a bit LCD-adjacent because MOBA that's saying something
>>
Too reliant on teammates picking heroes that have good synergy with his skills like Timbersaw or Primal Beast for example, without said picks he quickly becomes useless past earlygame
>>
Anyone playing Smite 2?
>>
>>728888192
I used to love chaos knight. People would make no attempt to stop me farming and then I would just run them over. Dont know why chaos knight isnt a hard carry.

>>728888423
>>728888568
I want to play smite 2 but I've heard it was asscheeks the first patch and none of my smite addicted friends want to touch it yet
>>
>>728888182
Depends on the lane.
>>
Hoodwink is an animal, you can't do that.
>>
>>728888182
I crush with nyx and generally agree with the latter, leaving lane before you hit 6 delays your power spikes and who gives a shit about pressuring an enemy offlaner who will just tank your shit anyway. Sometimes you have to rotate early to win a fight but it's only when your pos 5 can't protect your pos 1. Waste of mana and XP to rotate all the time and you give up pressure on enemy safelane. I only rotate before level 6 when my pos 1 is in big trouble or the enemy is obviously vulnerable.
>>
>>728888182
pos4 is the bigbrain role where you can do anything
...but generally i would stay and leech level 6 on heroes with a really good ult, look to roam on heroes without one
>>
>>728886346
Thanks for the advice anon, I'll give all three a try!

is he fun to play?
>>
>>728892606
The horns were very unnecessary.
>>
>>728892439
The most reasonable take on league vs dota has always been league is all about skillshots where you can turn off your brain and hope to hit something while dota is about strategy and working together and if you play brain off you will lose.
Which one is "better" is up to how you like to enjoy games. They are different experiences altogether despite the similar look.

>io but for spellcasters instead of rightclickers
It's neat that he fills a niche that didn't exist before but holy shit he's just a walking healbot in pubs
>>
>>728895472
One of Io's facet already covers that role, no?
One is for offense, other for defense.

>>728884880
played about 15 matches with him so far, really fun and unique hero

>Design and execution team

I'm 99,99% certain that Dota 2 doesn't have that many teams working on it
>>
The rhythm minigame must depart. It requires the player's attention, during a fucking team fight.
I'm happy devs tried something unique, but... not like that.
>>
>>728885919
>In a kit where you can turn on and off your ult that lets you either damage, heal, or add mobility to your team on and off or even two at a time

This guy is good for rightclickers too though
>gets to add lotus and linkens buff for free on cooldown to carry at no cost to himself
>gives a juicy 30% free magic damage on right click
He's certainly multi-faceted heh
>>
>>728888182
Depends on who you play and what you're up against. Fundamentally, you need to make a cost-benefit calculation at the start of the game and every minute on whether 1 of 3 things will be most effective:

Lane
Gank Mid
Gank Bot

If you have a bot lane that has kill potential, and/or the enemy bot is over extended and/or not mobile, and your 1 can be relied on to carry, you'll want to gank bot.

If mid has low enough HP and your own mid has kill potential, go mid. Generally, winning mid gives you a lot of momentum you can use to shut out the game.

If you have a good 3 and you can farm the 1 and 5, just do that.

The toughest part of of 4 is realizing which of these 3 options is the correct one to make, because if you choose wrong and waste time or die you only end up behind, while if the enemy makes a correct choice and profits you end up even more behind.
>>
>>728885151
now if only the in game models looked anything like the splash art
oh well lol
>>
>>728895472
io gives spell amp tho, lesh io is a really popular combo
>>
>>728888182
Depends
If you manage to stomp their safe lane you continute to stomp their safe lane you dont move from it, you let them react to you
Rotation ganking only works if you know you are getting the kill and pos5 is doing the vision clearance
Even if you smoke they know you are not where you should be
Dota is instinct game, no hard rules and why you learn new things in 10k hour game
>>
>>728888816
you're supposed to help your mid get 6 min rune, and sometimes you can win the game on the spot by even going for water runes if the enemy mid banked it all on being able to regen from it

It's a feature on his ult, granted, but he does give your right clickers a 30% damage bonus.

Honestly, the ratio of Soul:Soulless in League prior to 2017 or 2018 is pretty fucking good. It's only when they started really aggressively pandering to normalfags and China that it got lame.

Fuck early league OC was so peak, even the more conventionally attractive characters had a degree of thought or weirdness to them that was sovl. I'm not sure when exactly it started changing and with what character, though I'd say maybe Aphelios. Aphelios is a weird mix of both inspired kino (mute jewish moonpriest hitman) and cringe china pandering (asian pretty boy face, slender design for a hitman). Arguably, it started even earlier. Also, fuck NA has good taste at least
