Because Dota is GAY
4 years ago Valve released 2 female heroes in a row and redditors complained that we needed more burly monsters and ugly DEI hires. So valve designed primal beast, the Sweet Baby mexican, turned PA into a fag, plus the latest 2 faggot heroes

Asan is probably the least bad addition to this game.

Is it true to not play ranked on the weekend in Dota 2 as well? I was close to Bronze 2 in LoL and entered an 8 or 9 lose streak that I was demoted to Iron 1 and close to Iron 2. The amount of fucking griefers, inters, trolls, etc is insane.

Why does it take me 10 to 15 mins to find a match? I'm in NA in case ye ask.

Act 4 is this game's Heavy update.

There is no way he was that retarded fucking 40 minutes of a won game getting CC'd as a pos3 until I lose my lead until I am able to end the game when he could've just been in any teamfight. What make's carries such gigafaggots.

>>500086752
Reminds me of my pudge mid that went like 18-3 and proceeded to go 1vs5 3 times in a row and then we lost.

>7.38
>Hoodwink
>beans added to model

>>500086969
no this guy was special in his griefing, he avoided every fight while I just got ass raped by CC and slowly farmed up until he became Le Carry xDxxxx got the five racks but not the sixth which would give mega creeps btw I had to get that. We also almost lost the game because of this shit, ancient had 73 hp and the entire enemy team scaled. Finally we won a fight in their base and I ended, pretty sure only reason he shot their ancient was to not make it obvious. This is fucking LoL tier griefing honestly and I won't be playing anymore DotA today even if the games have all been free. Was so fucking miserable, oh and our Razor was a braindead retard too along with that faggot griefing Weaver.

got bored of Dota 2, so I downloaded a Dota AllStars matchmaking client and set it all up and played some Dota 1
it's pretty fun, I recommend it if you've never played Dota 1 but are curious about it
apparently the guy who maintained it used to work with Icefrog and the downside is that he's kinda trying to copy Dota 2 with every patch he releases. like he added the Talent tree and some other things that Dota 2 has and his reason is because something like Dota 2 is the natural progression of Dota since it's what Icefrog moved on to do. or something like that
idk, if you want to play older patches though, then Reforged has lobbies with older patches, so that's nice that there's some variety

is there any proof that dota has engagement based matchmaking? EOMM

>>500091025
No idea but I haven't thousands of games to judge it on my own. LoL was really obvious about it if DotA has it it's a lot more subtle.

>>500086752
I had that happen to me awhile ago but it was kinda based, ngl
the enemy Luna was a smurf and refusing to push hg and farmed a bunch of Rapiers, Aghs, and an Aether Lens and was basically oneshotting us with Lucent Beams
enemy team was pissed at Luna because she wouldn't end the game
>"REPORT LUNA, SEND HIS ASS TO LOW PRIO"
>Luna says, "where do you think I learned to play :)"

>>500091025
no, just schizo ramblings

>>500091025
well there is a behaviour score factor, so it's definitely not purely elo based like normal games

>>500093975
Bro... are you telling me if I want to learn Dota I should intentionally get myself into low priority queue?

>>500095667
maybe
if anything, you'll probably learn how to hard solo carry games

>>500095801
Cool, I'll ask my teammates to report me after game.

>>500091025
no
realistically it'd be hard to implement in dota because players and circumstances can vary so much
the game can't know if someone is calm or tilted the fuck out
it can't know if someone is drunk/high or focused
it can't know if someone will pick a hero they can or cannot play
it can only know how someone is generally, in both skill and behaviour at most it can roughly give you games that might create more engagement but even in games it thinks you should statistically win to keep you happy, it can't predict that someone on your team just arbitrarily decides to shit themselves and make it your problem

>>500091025
Yeah, if you havent played for a long ass time you will be paired with people on a loss streak. to et more losses.
punishment for not spending. basically low prio.
t. havent played in like two months and get matched with nothing but people with sub50% wr

this is the shittest game ever i wish i never got beta access

so why is Deadlock flopping? haven't they been adding a bunch of new heroes and stuff?

>>500098884
deadlock is better than dota get over it

>>500098884
The game feels done at this point despite being in "alpha"
and the direction of balance is all over the place.

>>500099678
literally dota since 2013

>>500098884
Power creep and bloat kills every game, deadlock is a prime example. Way too much new stuff in a short amount of time.
Dota gets its new stuff added much more slowly which is why dota is dying a lot slower

If they want to save the game they should add the real Techies to the game again

>>500101126
fuck no.

>>500101445
i agree the game should die...

I miss non-hero cosmetic items so much. It's crazy that there are hundreds of HUDs but if you sort by most recent, there's a 2016 HUD in the first row of results. Why did Valve stop releasing interface cosmetics? Most of those old HUDs are unusable due to Aghanims changes.

>>500123492

Do you guys think its wrong to smurf and stomp using tryhard hero like morph? or its okay since everyone smurf anyway.

Have his spells always been basically melee-range or is that a change from the past few years?

what went wrong?

children dont drink onions

>>500147447
Roaming, brawl provoking 4s have been much more prevalent in the past than now (during the time bounty runes only gave gold to the hero that picked them up).

Dota's average skill level is also incomparably higher than it was several years ago and increases every year. It's typical to hear accounts of returning players being unable to handle the competition and dropping to much lower ranks.
