first for Marci a cutie!
>>539688707Its still up in the air for what organization rumors so far says OG but I personally doubt that since why have fly when you got Daze and is notail done with coaching already
>>539690223>og.flykill urself retard
Buff Hoodwink
>>539690358Lol who knows who really running og now
>>539689673What do you do as a POS 4 if the lane is literally unplayable to the point you can't even pull?
>>5396904286th most picked hero at ti
>>539690569Go stack help recover your pos 3 or roam to another lane to force a reaction from their pos 5
>>539690569Stack triangle, secure runes for your mid, try to help your safelane if they need it.
is there anything more soul crushing than your teammate randomly lashing out at you because you didn't do something as they have envisioned even though you are the only reason that the game hasn't been lost yet? Whenever I interact with such npcs I contemplate finding a game that could replace Dota, was thinking about Age of Empires since it's 1v1 but i dont think its a game I could be spamming for the entire day
What are some ulties you feel need a rework? Either they are boring, too weak or doesn't feel like an "ulti".For me it's.>Wispnobody uses it in pub plays and he isn't picked in pros. Making his ulti totally useless>BristlebackA fucking passive, boring and doesn't feel good>ClockwerkBarely does any damage, was good when mobility was more sparse, but feels like a regular ability in nu-dota mobility creep,>DazzleThe worst it has ever been>DrowPassives doesn't feel fun>EnchantressI donno even know what her ulti is, the slow now?>NagaJust anti-fun and nothing else>ogreboring passive>PABoring passive>RazorThink it needs a rework, too weak in nu-dota>Tinyboring passive>UrsaAnti-fun spell>TAObnoxious spell, could give her something more fun>Tinkerremove from the game
which arcana should i get out of ogre, jug, sf or tb?i play none of these heroes
>>539690969>WispRequires communication and coordination, which doesn't work with 4 teammates speaking Russian in EUWest. There's nothing wrong with the ult for pro play, the hero is just weak and needs a buff.>DazzleI hate it too.>EnchantressYes it's Untouchable.>Ogre>PAIt's way too iconic to remove, and they're not boring. Getting a x4 Multicast or massive Crits is exciting.
>>539690223>hiring another mishmash of ethnicities and thinking it will workWhat are ceb and n0tail doing to this franchise?
>>539690569Stack the triangle and roam. Try to help your mid get a kill. Secure his runes. Take mid tower.
>want to buy sets i missed out on from randoms>remember the 30 day steam friend waiting periodman...
How did boomers miss CS when quelling blade gave like 30 attack damage? LMAO
>>539690969>razor ult>too weakNIGGER just buy AGHANIMS AND REFRESHER. Literally infinite damage.
>>539692165I bought a few sets like that, and it's really fucking annoying so I stopped even though there are a few more I'd like to get.
>>539690969Not everything needs to be exciting. It's more important heroes are unique than being able to do everything another hero canE.g. Hoodwink, primal beast, marci, grimstroke, or other failures like ringmaster???? kez????
>>539692491I just want that demon axe set and maybe that new lion ultra rare but im sure that'll be on the market soon
>>539692506How many more months until they add Kez to Captain's Mode?
>>539690969Oh and I forgot, either change Lina or Lions ulti, they are too similar.
>analog out of Heroicyou think he's joining a EU team or?
>>539692506What exactly are you getting at
>>539692680Lion fist facet should be baseline
>only black spanish talent>mr. chocothat's racist
>>539696176Nah, that'd be a stupid unnecessary nerf to support lion
>>539696557>straight upgrade >nerf
>>539693123ppy gonna make him rich
>>539696676yeah let me become a melee hero every teamfight on this squishy support that dies to 3 right clicks that's a great buff
>>539690428can't wait for the nerfs
>>539697592Yes lion is such a good right clicker with his medium range, shit damage, and shit attack speed
>>539698617>sub 50 % winrate >no bansShe's getting buffs.
this is the year of Artour Babaev
>>539698971>ult in a fight>now you can't kill wards, tombstones, phoenix egg, weaver bugs, healing ward and whatever else without putting yourself in more dangerHe's not medium range either, he's 600 which is high-end, I don't think it'd make that much of a difference but I wouldn't want it forced on you either
>>539699132>jews can't stop being greedylike pottery
>>539689813dios mio
>>539700631Yes, jews want /ourgirl/ nerfed despite her needing buffs
>>539699597You're the kind of support player who stands by tower scared of getting too close to the enemy,huh?
>>539705083No but there's no reason to put yourself in unnecessary danger and for what, more damage on your ult? You don't get health from stacks anymore, and I can guarantee they'd be able to do more damage to you if you're out of position than anything it'll give you
why would anyone pick void spirit when storm spirit exists
>>539691973they sold 51% of it to some private equity firm
Is it just me or is the end-game stat screen taking longer to show up, used to pop-right up but now it hangs for a little bit, the hell is it even loading
you guys were right anonymous mode is the best way to play the game
I love playing Viper and just doing poison pools everywhere
>>539708535>he orine
>Enemy team locks Earthshaker>We lose
>2 teammates with the clan tag peruu>1 peruu teammate has an extremely dumb looking guy as selfie>we lose
>>539708535People usually pick the attack facet but the pool facet is actually busted
>Enemies have more BROOOOL heroes>they wingood game
kek he's fucking crying
>>539714242who?
>>539715047Me
Here's grub in your eye
post kinos
done with this shit game once againFrom the report system to the forced 50% winrate. It's all ass. And the worst part the subhumans you have to deal with it. I don't how is it on other regions, but South America is a fucking nightmare. Honestly, if you are not making money with this shit why even play it, like seriously, how can someone enjoy this piece of trash?
>>539717535>South AmericaWhy would you ever play on that server
>>539717535>I don't how is it on other regionsRussians.Queue up in Europe West with only English as the selected language? Russians.
>>539717207where is this from lol
>>539718808from a place called /d2g/ fren
>>539717708Russians are better than MENA/iran/Turkey/North african/non russian eastern europeans
>first day playing on anonymous mode>4W1Lthink I found the way
>>539719535t. vladimir vladislav
supports will build this shit and then say "gg shit carries"
>>539720360what hero
>>539720445sniper
My alt account, which used to be same mmr as my main, has 0% rank confidence so now I get to legally smurf.You would think that the matchmaker would put me in smurf pool where I am playing against other smurfs, but no. They are on my team. My midlaner has 3k MMR over my fucking main account's rating. The fuck?
maybe im getting too old but dota stresses me out. Trying to keep up with wards, farming patterns, that feeling that i'm about to get ganked and feed, how competitive laning is now even in unranked...like i feel stressed just playing the game
>>539720630I simply don't believe you.
>>539720360I'll do one better, my pos5 warlock last game built Heart and Aghs
>>539720949He did it for the facet that makes the golems do more damage based on Warlock's regen but year it's a dumb build.
>>539720905why would i make it up
>>539721136looks like u were too bad for him to carry
>>539721136these names scream us west, a place no one actually plays dota 2
>>539721136>sniper shit talkingnow that's what I call based
got the shadow demon arcanashould I spam mid or carry
>>539724710carry
>>539724710Yeah carry Shadow Demon why not
Who's the easiest hero to relearn dota with
>>539717708ruskies are shit but i'll take them over spics any day
>>539724887they all look the samehow am I supposed to tell one shadow prefix hero from another
>>539725428That's very racist against demons
>>539725528sorry terrorblade but I don't care
>>539715176face traced from unteralterbach
>>539691973its worked for falcons
need to expand my hero pool I only play spiritslop + puck and they all get countered by the same shit, give me some good mid heroes that dont go in like maniacs
>>539725981sniper visage tinker dp
>>539725810No it isn't
>>539724710Shadow demon doesn't have an arcana

dotards??
rubick fem fursona pLEasE
>>539725981arc warden but he is probably more of a support now
>>539729706yes dotard?
>>539728326Will never happen. Rubick is a hero for faggots, not trannies
>>539726893it's just slangif you're new here shadow demon is just slang for shadow fiend's demon eater hat
>>539729706what the fuck do you want?!?!
>>539731483Deer GF
>>539731483Dota 2 themed card game
>>539731720wdym she was picked in a few games of the Grand Finals
>>539731720WHY ISNT ENCHANTRESS REALWHY THE FUCK CANT I COME HOME TO HER ENTHUSIASTIC EMBRACE AND HAVE HER HOLD MY HANDS AND PLAY WITH MY HAIR AND TELL ME ABOUT HER DAY AS I RESST MY HEAD IN THE LOVING WARMTH OF HER FLANKFUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUUUUCK PLEASE I NEED AN ENCH GF ITS SO FUCKING PAINFUL
>>539732157Would it be that great really? She'd want to pick flowers all the time, and she'd never age because of her nature magic and every year she'd go into a rut where she'd want you to fuck her silly every day, wanting you to breed her and raise a litter of fawns whom she would love unconditionally. Also she'd take up like 3/4ths of the bed
>>539733097posts like these hurt me on a level im not sure i can properly articulate, physical included
>>539733287You need to think logically on the matter, imagine the downsides, there's simply no feasible way to comfortably play with her breasts while you're inside her, you can't kiss her either or lock eyes, there's only pre- and post- coital foreplay involved, it's not all fun and games having a deer-wife you know
>>539733743a small price to pay for lovethe dreams where im with her are forever etched into my mind
>>539731720>>539732157>>539733097>>539733287>>539733743>>539734036you guys need to kill yourselves asap
I'm starting to face a problem when playing now, I usually play pos3 and there's many times I bully out the enemy pos1 out of the lane... but a bit clueless what to do after that.I can either;>1Try and hunt him down, but this is too risky and I rarely succeed with this because the map is too big now>2Go to other lanes and help out>3Stay at the lane and get farm thereI'm starting to think the 3'rd option is the best, it's the least risky one. But I think I should combine it with like a meme hammer if I play a pos3 that can't push too well. Anyone got any suggestions what to do in a situation like this?The annoying part is if you stay on your lane there's a big chance your team mates will start flaming you and want you to leave a total free lane to help them.
>>539734347It'd be easier to kill you
>>539734404game plan is dependent on hero
>>539734404dont go meme hammer on an offlane hero what in the world, just hit the tower and kill anyone who dares intervene, dont go for t2s just hunt people in jungle with supports and midlaner and rotate to mid to take tower or tp to safelane to save carry
void spirit pos 1 solo lanes (safe lane) do y ou think this is viable? i feel this would be groundbreaking with the amount of survivability he has
>>539735171His right-click game is pretty weak
>>539735171no, he's been too nerfed and does 0 dps. He's a control hero now best played mid. If you're outskilling your opponents hard you can go full glass canon but if the enemy team can coordinate 2 spells they'll kill you
>>539735171no damageif you want a hero like void spirit but with damage, maybe pick puck
>>539733097sadly she loves everything and everyone so she will most likely wanting to fuck everything
>>539736215She'd love you too much to put you through that
>>539736164>>539735527>>539735452>nuke babies cryingbro i got a shield and jump and im near tower. if i can live till lvl 6 (min 5 or 6 or 7) and pow off that i wouldnt even NEED FARM
Best Marci set?
>>539736712have fun griefing
>>539735171og was running it but it didnt look good when they did it looks like a solid pos 4
>>539736939
>>539736939I don't get itIs she telling me to go through the portal to gank for offlane? I can't do that I need to farm and have no mana.
Pa is really shit at the moment huh. Absolutely no reason to pick her over sven.
a hero that really vanished was obsidian destroyer, I think every hero that icefraud can't disfigure hard enough to become playable in the offlane he just nerfs beyond repair and forgets about it
dota has based streamer girls now, we've really matured as a communityhttps://www.twitch.tv/coldfireball92
>>539739521will i hear a beep in the stream if i quote this let's see
https://voca.ro/1hMCLh2UReNBI sentence mixed Chaos Knight to say Jevil's catchphrase.
>>539740212>not "I can do anything!"its cool, but im somewhat disappointed
>>539740332Just getting him to say "Can" correctly was hard enough.
monkeys made a decent tidehunter guide, it's like the old bsj videos where he plays and explains why he's doing what he does
>>539720360>>539721136he's playing the meta, chuddie, perhaps you should educate thyself
upgrade or nah
>>539741974wisper is the best offlaner in the americas so it's a downgrade, they could get any midlane pubstar
>>539741974Wisper is Indian?
>>539742502lol pretty sure he isnt
>>539742502that's not the indian flag
>>539743304thats the rastafari flag
>>539742502american education everyone
>>539739334I'd honestly really like OD to be able to flex between mid and either carry or offlane
dude what about a hero that is like a blue mage, he steals skills from neutrals and uses them, make the hero like a blue rubick so people get the blue mage reference, think about it dotards
I want it to be known that 90% of Sniper's kills are stolen from me and I'm very upset about it.Literally every single teamfight was me doing most of the work and then Sniper getting the triple because he's plinked them from across the screen.
Can't win with invokers on my team
>>539746116I am not crazy! I know he stole those kills! I knew it was supposed to be double digits. 20s, just like my age. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just – I just couldn't prove it. He – he covered his tracks, he got those other idiots on my team to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. That shrapnel! Are you telling me that a man just happens to triple kill like that? No! He orchestrated it! Sniper! He spammed shrapnel every teamfight! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I took him into my own team! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since this game first came out, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands away from his teams kills! But not our Sniper! Couldn't be precious Sniper! Stealing them blind! And he gets to be a Carry!? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance! And you – you have to stop him! You-
Here's cum in your eye!
is it ever worth rerolling your cache items? Should i just wait till theyre resellable, i already got what i wanted besides the luna skin :/
miCKe to pos 3Watson pos 1Malady pos 5Is the word on the street for liquid
>>539751026I got the es arcana from a rerolled cache.
>>539746925I have a 0% winrate with an Undying on my team.And a 90% winrate against an Undying on the enemy team.Everybody who picks an Undying is a worthless shitter. Doesn't help that half of them are "we need tank" shitters who pick Aghs rush core Undying because Pudge was banned.
teezy probably has a new team, right? he's moving to europe probably to be with that team
>>539751762nah he's moving to malta to avoid taxes and promote gambling
I need some help with support Marci. There's this awkward period in between Phase Boots and Helm of the Dom where taking creep camps is hard and the rest of the farm is going to my cores and it takes forever to get to Helm. What timing should I be aiming for and anything I can do to help with this? Obviously I'm running around and warding and present in team fights but I feel a bit helpless until I can get Helm online.
>>539751762No way is going pro worth it to him anymore. He probably makes more money streaming.
>>539752324dont build helmet on support marci unless it's late game
>>539752651lol he 100% makes more money streaming but sometimes you just have the hunger and just do it for the love of the game and it doesnt help all his EG guys have a ring so he feels like he has to get one himself to be in that same convo
>>539752324if ur gonna get the helm do with with brown boots, you actually cant afford phase boots before it and you should only do it if you win your lane, if you lose your lane and rush a helmet u're griefing the game
>>539752324Lol all im hearing is that you are griefing your games with HofD thats a insane trap that pro players got you in
>>539753156>>539753351>>539753447It's so I can use Rebound without my team around.
>>539754283rush it, buy stick and boots or wind lace and rush it then, the components are all strong and useful
>>539753294He hasn't had hunger ever. He coasted on being a prodigy his entire career. He's not going pro again because even he knows he will never win.
>play game>guy on my team dc's 5 minutes in>everyone keeps unpausing>he gets abandon>my team all leave>i lose mmr because of this because there's 1 kill on the boardWhy is this still a thing?
who's gonna buy my 50% aegis discount code?
>>539757217you don't lose mmr in pre 5 min abandon
Courier sniping needs to be nerfed. Make it so the items it carried go back to the stash or something, losing access to them for several minutes because of a single misplay is too extreme of a penalty.
>>539757249Lol Why would anyone buy a 50% off code you might as well go buy the thing at full price since that what you are essentially doing>>539757135You aren't wrong
>>539757687league might be more up your speed
>>539757341You do if first blood happened.
>>539757687Why? It's the players fault they are literally uncapable to micro a little courier
>>539757749Sorry but it's objectively retarded that you can lose a match because of a single misplay that causes your BKB to be delayed for 3 minutes. This has literally decided pro games before, it's stupid.
>>539757843That's the beauty of dota
https://files.catbox.moe/rswvnz.mp4
>>539757843That's why you micro your courier when you're picking up an important item. Literally your fault.
my game has been having that bug where all characters are bald on their portrait all the time now, is there a fix?
>>539757696>Lol Why would anyone buy a 50% off code you might as well go buy the thing at full price since that what you are essentially doingthey can give me some old hat for it idc
I always lose my lane
Why do you insist on playing this game if it's such a negative experience most of the time?
cute girls
>cute girlsI wasn't talking about deadlock

>>539751762he's surely washed? too old to go pro? or is that just cope from other old-heads
>>539763421He's 29, which is old, but Sneyking just won his second TI at 30. Not impossible.
>>539763525oh I thought he was older actually>SneykingI feel the data shows that support players have more longevity like old man Fear
if I see a russian name in turbo i am banning invoker and pudge simple as
>>539763647Fear was a pos 1 player for years before switching to support as he got older. Arteezy would probably do the same.
if you think being in your 30s is old to play a videogame you're suffering from internet brainrotthe only thing that prevents you from playing is injuries like carpal tunnel that develop if you don't take care of your posture and dont rest your arm on the table
>>539763838Other games still have pros in their 30s and even 40s but for whatever reason Dota seems to have a hard cutoff at 30.
>>539763942dota takes too much time and effort, all those pros are underdeveloped children, most didn't realize how good they had when they decided to quit, once they understood they had to go through 5 years of education and shitty jobs for years to get the same salaries they had playing dota they all regreted, pieliedie said this many times, that's why you have people like bone7 and nikobaby grinding trying to come back and etcbut the thing is, you just get replaced by some russian kid on crack that plays the game 14 hours a day and doesn't get tired and it's over
>>539763838>old to play a videogameits about being past your absolute cognitive peak not a social, manchild etc matter
>>539764971>absolute cognitive peakyeah, you're not going to find pros in their 60s probably
>>539738308Nope. Awful hero.Valve have been having problems with Agility heroes in general for close to a decade now. They stopped adding them, and they've tried a bunch of "redesigns" that have all failed. It's been close to a decade now of blunders. It's becoming a real problem.
>>539751762His wife wants to get him to China so she can have kids there. This is a step on the way.
>>539765601>They stopped adding themBut Kez...
our last agi carry was mk, 9 years ago
>new heroesI don't think dota needs more characters desudunno if this is an unpopular opinion but it's just absolutely not about that
I started lifting weights again and dieting and getting my shit together and now I'm too tired to play dotka, I need a comfy pos 5 hero that I can play and win easy mmr being carried
>>539766736Lich
>>539765601>they've tried a bunch of "redesigns" that have all failedmedusa has become playable thanks to her changesdo you have any clue what you Re spouting off about
>>539767064dusa was always playable, friend
>>539767165she used to be unpickable trash
Medusa had a rework?
>>539767768you used to have to level mana shield
>>539767897Oh that. I didn't consider that a rework since she still had the manashield and got something new in it's place. I was expecting something a lot bigger.
When will they revert>innates, idk what was wrong with having passives>mastery trees, just blatant power creep>neutral items, blatant power creep, making 60 minute games miserable>aghs shards, blatant power creep>aghs scepters for every hero, remember when not every hero had an aghs upgrade and you could actually have synergy with an alch pick?>clinkz, techies and other reworks>new heroes that do everything an old hero does, but better. if we keep going dota will just turn into LoL.
>>539767064there was patches where old medusa was good>>539768125very different hero, mana shield only blocked like 60% of dmg and she still had hp, now she has 0 str gain
>>539768176powercreep is a good thing
>>539765601?
>>539768210>there was patches where old medusa was goodshe was pretty much ignored at ti after being added to captain modeup until ti6
clinkz was completely redesigned by valvenow he was finally picked in the grand final of ti (he lost)
>>539767064All it took was making it so that she doesn't have to interact with half the damage mechanics. Incredible game design.
>>539769396>she doesn't have to interact with half the damage mechanicsUnless you're playing against Slardar or ET (ie 99% of games) not being affected by armour or magic resist is a disadvantage for her.
icefraud should have gone to jail for what he did to clinkz
Smurfs and Alt accounts RUIN GAMES. Its not just uneven skill. It's no accountabilityvalve missed a shitton of accounts, out of the ones i casually kept track of being blatant smurfs, 2/3rds didnt face any punishment.. I dont understand if valve already have tools as they claimed to adjust behavior score or skill bracket of smurfs, why dont they use it to actually put them away or ban them early. Make them have to replay 500 games now to access ranked if you get caught smurfing, or make them pay with 30 min queues. Something other than this useless once or twice a year banwaves
>>539771331>>>reddit
I play archon/legend,Currently, the games boil down to who has the best smurf on their team.There is literally a smurf in 3 out of 4 games.For example, we have two friends who come from LOL who are learning to play. It's impossible for them to have fun; they just get crushed by guys playing Meepo level 2.If nothing change, game is over
this redditor is 100% correct, it happened to me as well, dota 2 is just too good it should be considered a crime to play itI think the only types of games I can enjoy that aren't dota are the super nerd stuff like rimworld, frostpunk, stellaris, but you play those once every year for like a week and u're done with them, with dota you can play all day every day
>>539771494>For example, we have two friends who come from LOL who are learning to playThey probably got put into the smurf pool because some of their league skills (i.e. last hitting) carried over so they were performing much better than expected for a new player.
>>539771704you and that leditor are gona stop playing abruptly someday, laying off the game for months maybe year+ to come
>>539771704Definitely hard to take other games seriously after you learn Dota
soulless slop team
>>539774053imagine getting shitmado for this team instead of a beastmode carry like Yuma

>>539771331>>539771494>playing ranked when you are a shitterjust play funmode, friend
>>539775732>party qdropped, it's immoral
>>539776386All females are party queuing and getting carried to high ranks that way.
>>539774053fly looks rough dawgtime is the enemy
>>539775732You gotta do something about that nose.
>>539777369she's also a chunky girl
>>539763942>>539763838People just mindlessly compare esports to actual sports to try and make it seem more legitimate. The only reason people "fall off" is because after a decade of playing dota all day every day they realise there is more to life and lose the motivation.
>>539771494Why don't you play support and support your team's smurf to victory.
>>539777959I can tell by that hand.
i haven't played dota in like a year so im uncalibrated but is the game saying it thinks i'm immortal level if this is how it's balancing the teams?
>>539778628No, you're probably somewhere between high ancient and low divine.
>>539778628it thinks u're high legend low ancient
>>539778628>archon 4 (0) plus legend 2 (3), legend 3 (4), 2 ancient 1 (7x2) =vs>archon 4 (0) plus 2 legend 3 (4x2), legend 4 (5), plus rank x (y)y = 8 so you're ancient 2
>>5397757324chan sure has a type of girl
we need more gold for supports actually
>>539777990>.t quinn
you will own no completed itemsyou will buy consumablesyou will be happy
Mars is so fucking weak in lane
>>539782904watch atf demos
>>539782957I wish the niggers that pick mars on my team would
someone team me how to lane as a 5/4 i feel like a lose the ward game and i need to harass and pull at the same time and i also need to be stacking but if i leave the lane my core decides that's the best time to push and get dove 2v1
>>539783585You can always buy more regen to pressure the lane. Don't be lazy with the courier and I hope you have a convenient hotkey for the shop.
>Wisper kicked/leaves heroiclmao SA teams always crumble
>Dota+ behavior score (2)>team is full of ghouls>time, level and items pinged constantly>no support items boughtI don't know what I was expecting
>>539784209wisper is good enough to play on an eu team
>>539757965she's so ducking hot brosi wish she would be my freestyle dancing teacher
>>539784209Why, they made playoffs
>>539786020they kicked davai after they won that lan this year to unstable team management
>>539785251not when your english vocabulary consists of 5 words
>>539789293You don't need more.
>>539789657maybe not ingame but you need good chemistry with your teammates, mercenary teams never win anything
>>539774053Lol bulba always finds a way
>>539774053damn
>>539784209He is moving to mid not kicked davai taking his spot at 3
put rtz on any TI14 playoff team and you get the most obvious ti winner prediction
>>539791597
how do you find the motivation to keep playing? even when i win, i can still feel the despairing shadow of irrelevancy looming over this game now that deadlock is taking shape
>>539792881>deadlock taking shape>40k players>50k on the weekendskek
>>539792881you start meme builds and griefing, if you are not enjoying then at least make sure no one else is
>>539793083it's an invite-only alpha, i can't think of an alpha that has as much players
>>539793254an alpha only played by BETAS
>>539793254>it's le invite onlyretarded cope, look at the peak numbers. People who wanted to play have already tried the game out
>>539792881how do you find the motivation to keep doomposting? even when i doompost, i can still feel the despairing shadow of irrelevancy looming over my posts now that I'm too old to samefag as much as I used to
>>539792881Lol deadlock is that annoying younger brother that believe he can fight against the big brother
>>539793415>>539793598nah the peak numbers right now is just indicative of people gawking at valve's big new project, obviously many didn't end up playing because the thing is barely finished, when the big shiny 1.0 label is slapped on to deadlock, the numbers will be very different>>539793583i don't get what you're trying to say
>>539793415Lol deadlock players was talking a lot of shit saying its only up from there when they had That small jump in players
>>539793810cope all you want sister
>>539793415>People who wanted to play have already tried the game outthis is cope
>>539795760How, anyone can get an invite if they want, it's not like at the start of Dota where they were limited
>>539796256>anyone can get an invite if they wantthen why even call it an invite?
>>539796317retard
>>539796317Probably because that's what it is, I'm not denying you need access to play it but the idea that it's hard to gain for someone who truly wanted to play is false
>>539796470tyfyc
>>539796514>I'm not denying you need access to play it but the idea that it's hard to gain for someone who truly wanted to play is falsethis statement is an oxymoron
>>539796683It really isn't, there's no conflicting ideas there, there's obviously varying degrees of difficulty to accessing things and when all you need is someone who has already been given access to extend that access to you, which can be done infinitely if they wish, then it's not difficult at all. When Dota was in beta it was at fist Valve's discretion to who they gave keys to, all you need to do here is go to the Discussion page
>>539797448>there's no conflicting ideas thereyou cant have both exclusive invite only access and be readily available to the public> all you need is someone who has already been given access to extend that access to you>then it's not difficult at all. and if you dont know of anything then you cant gain accessit wasnt hard for you, but you arent everyone
>>539771494But...meepo doesn't get divided until level 3......
>900k concurrent playerswtf why isnt this shit game dead???
>>539793972We are all sisters here. There is no need to attack each other. Deadlock and Dota are a perfect pair, they even start with the same letter!
>>539797707I never said it was exclusive, in fact I said the complete opposite that they're very inclusive with the invites, and yes what an arduous task it is to find out how to gain one
>>539798225the game is back, the white man marches onyou know what that means, right? it's time for icefraud to ruin it again8.00 in november
does deadlock have the same "first match on xx" date? I might get an invite and play 1 match if that's the case so I can call myself an old fag, but I'll never actually play or care about that game
>>539798334how is a private invite not exclusive?>n fact I said the complete opposite that they're very inclusive with the invites, and yes what an arduous task it is to find out how to gain onesarcasm is wit for the witless
>>539798579Ok and what is the criteria for exclusion from said invite? So far your argument seems to be people unaware of the game's existence when the original argument was for those that truly wanted to play. I don't even care anymore, you're an idiot who thinks spouting platitudes is an argument, maybe actually address what was implied, or do you think a google search is considered too much for the average person
>>539799076>Ok and what is the criteria for exclusion from said invite?as you put it, you need to know someone alreadywhich puts it out of reach for some despite their willingness to playif you dont care then stop posting ya idiot
Doters, how many rolls do I need to get the fish Ogre set?
deadlock is just not fun, I'm sorry, it doesn't have the dota depth, it's mechanically tiresome to play, doesn't the mechanical depth of counter:strike, they made a game that is simply mid
this is the goated zeus build and I am tired of pretending otherwiseno 1 hero damage dealer in the game without aghs or refresh spam
>>539799741idk, like 15
>>539717207Thats me and my five last losses after having a 10-win streak. Garbage cores that cant do anything right. Having faceless void in our team and yet my team keeps running into the enemy instead of delaying and farming.
>usernames I LOVE X PERSON and X PERSON are on my team>theyre completely dogshiti never would have seen this coming in a million years
>>539798334>Add a redditor to friendsgrim
>>539799743it's not good i agree
I'm downloading Dota 2 right NowBrand new player. I like Position 5. Bane, Oracle & Silencer are interesting so far. Just on youtube watching a beginner guide rn.Some years ago I played a bit of league..and I played a bit of Vainglory back in the day, so I know the Moba basics.From UK and not a kid.Upvote if I'm Welcome :-)
>>539805449kill yourself nigger
>teammate pings my death after following me around for 30+ seconds and then doing fuckall when i go in to make a moveive never queued up a rapier faster in my life
some guy made a post about how retarded nu-dota is with everyone getting so much free gold and Loda showed up to say we need old dota backit would be so great if dota took skill again and supports werent retardedly rich for no reason
>>539808239>lets make players even MORE dependant on their teams!kill yourself
>>539809013it's a team game
it's so fun watching supportcucks with 4 full itens in 30 minutes while literally doing nothing but getting 15 assists by standing near kills
>>539808239Old dota was trash and only seemed hard because everyone was bad at it.There, I said it.
>>539809396This is simply not true.
fucking low skill supports picking witch doctor or silencer
Between hon and dota who has more unique hero designs?
>jugg has 11 kills 7 minutes into the game>but the game is my fault because i died once mid in that same timeframeevery single braindead fucking nigger that has ever said anything like this deserves to be skinned alive
Have you seen the copium post about the new champion being the niggress from Artifact? Apparently her weapon was part of the TI stage and so on.
>>539810759fuck off chuddie
>>539798225bros its just russian spinning up the bots so they can sell new uncalibrated accs
solely exists as a soft-counter to puck
>>539809769hon was literally dota 1 + 20 new heroesdota 2 is dota 1 + like 12 new heroes
how do i win games when these are my teammates
I don't know, but with the new player count highs, Valve had better be cooking up a juicy new patch+event to ship. This is their moment, they've been setting this up for a while.
>>539812289anything below 3k mmr, you can just pick a farming hero, ignore your teammates, and farm for 20 minutes or until the enemy team is pushing high ground, get a bkb, then 1v5 them, then go push their hg and win
>936k peakis there any reason or is it just people being reminded dota exists after ti?also what was the 2022 peak?the 2019 peak was autochess.
>>539812615game is good
>>5398126152022 peak was some battle pass with an arcana, like spectre or wraith king or something i think
>>539812892aghs labyrinth and drow arcana
>>539741974LAN winsDavai Lama 1Wisper 0
>>539812615NOOOOOOOOTHE GAME IS SUUPSED TO BE DEAD HOW CAN THIS BE BHNNENNING
>smoke and push while creeps are hitting our t3>lose fight>lose rackswow who would have guessed
>play solo unranked>always play with 2 duosDo people really have that many friends? I have never played with a friend...
>>539813464carried by parker. davai lama is dogshit
>>539812289HOW DO I FUCKING WIIIIN
people said parker was on the mouz team, but it was crystallis
>early game is just a fucking shitfest where the enemies waltz all over us>tell team to just turtle until we have arena+chrono+global up>actually works>still feel like we're lacking damage>buy 2x rapier on zeus>always def base and when they're pushing our rax I stay near the fountain so magnus/tusk can't kick/skewer me out of it>actually fucking won that way>got divine 1thanks for reading my blogpost
>pick zeus support>stay back and zap people>if someone tries to go on me, i just leap awaythis hero is comfy
>>539816421sounds like an unranked game
>>539812615bots
>>539816421sounds like a ranked game
>>539813291ohh yeah, i remember that one, that one was fucking really great actually, i played the shit out of Aghs Lab
>>539817060I would play the shit out of a stand alone aghs lab by Valve
>>539816570>>539817053it was certainly a game of dota2
>spend 2 months doing everything i can to increase my goyscore>only gain 500 points in that window>lose it all because i had 2 horrible games in a rowim seriously going to fucking kill myself. there is absolutely no chance in hell that this system was designed to do anything but commit acute mental torture upon millions of undeserving masses
>>539817238by 2 horrible games do you mean getting muted by the other 9 players in the game while you continuosly fed couriers and ran down mid?
Can it be next week already so we get the patch, TI was over a week ago already
>>539808239what is the reason that supports should be poor?
>>539817340the worst i did was buyback to jungle in a game that was statistically unwinnable. i dont deserve to have months of perfectly fine games be completely fucking erased because the 4 other cocksuckers i had the misfortune of queuing with fed 30 kills in 14 minutes
Fun random factThe Helmet from Venge Set you get from Quartero is literally just a reskinned old hat.
can i play lina support or is that trolling in 2025 asking for my penis
>>539817429Imagine paizuri with Ench
>enemy team picks lone druid>expect free loss>he took bear necessities instead of bear with me>get free winlol
>>539817238i think you have to play a lotand also, just don't talk at all in teamchat or allchat, and after the match is over, commend everyone on the winning team every matchalso, don't ever break items or grief or do anything to intentionally piss off anyone in the gamei was 5k behavior score like 2 months ago, now i'm 7.5k behavior score. it takes a lot of matches to improve it
>>539817497The whole set is pretty lazy, at least it's another set that leaves her underwear uncovered
>>539817456yeah dont do that bro
>>539689673anons, I still didn't claim the dota plus reward.what's the deadline? I'm not really playing dota right now
>>539818653it's an item you activate, it sits in ur inventory
>>539818653Probably a while but it goes in your armoury and you can use it when you want, there's no reason to wait to claim it
How can I quench this seething hatred inside of me?
>>539818861>>539818770thanks, kinoI fucked up, anons, I was busy, and simply... skipped predictions for the internationalbut for the pre-international shit, I got to 92 percentgot my free arcana, a free pudge arcana - SOVLtoo bad about the shadow shaman frog thing I missed, damn, but the arcana more than makes up for itwhat about you guys?
>>539815192Team would have been far more entertaining to watch with Parker
>>539819107Why with the lovable Hoodwink of course!>>539819167That's bullshit, I had over 95th for the Road to the International and it went down to 86th, there's no way you'd keep that score without making any predictions or fantasy points
>>539782904>2 damage skills is weak in lanefuck off normie>MUH LE LAST HITS!!!!!!!
>>539819107Go back to 2015-2017 and pick techies
>>539819835I haven't seen a Mars not suck ass in lane in months, he does literally nothing
I fell from 3000ish immortal to ancient 5 during 7.39. It's so over bros. I don't feel driven anymore.
>>539820091>3000ish immortalamerican immortal or real immortal?
>>539820091Then climb again should be easy for you
>>539820012listen normie he has TWO DAMAGE NUKES if you dont understand this concept you dont know how laning works. enjoy your divine games which you got shadowpooled into, with the other shadow pool npc niggers >I DONT UNDERSTAND LE TWO DAMAGE NUKESif you didnt know, 10 years ago most heroes only had one nuke that did 300 damage and that was it.ON TOP OF THAT you had heroes like gyrocopter which would get picked and SKIP homing missle EVERYTIME because one nuke in lane was the only thing possible and you DIDNT NEED IT PAST THE lane farming phasenow, this information would have given you info into the laning stage nowadays which would show you and help you surpass your other players or jsut in GENERAL UNDERSTAND THE FUCKING -meta-you not knowing the meta and just play the game is the cancer that killed everything in this universe and no i wont listen you le fucking normie when someone says >two nukes in lane and you dont know what that is?laning is literally subjective as is probably (i dont exactly know the numbers) is all of the game. just saying "other people dont know how to lane" just says i sit in the lane and stand the fuck still. i have LEARNED how to play so that i know how to NEVER FEED in the lane because the meta called for it
>>539820664>crystal maiden randomly started feeding>jakiro suddenly started afk farming jungleidk what happened to both supports? maybe they both got their period suddenly?
>>539820567Mars is just bad at laning, no need to be upset
>>539822087>entire post citing 10 years of meta progression>YOU ARE LE MAD XDthe actual normified state of being
>>539822487Why are you so mad? Mars is bad at laning, that's just how it is
>>539822636>just say le same thing xdomg total npcposting happening right now literally in the thread
>>539822721Stay mad stay bad I guess
>>539822815>im dropping out of le argument LE NEUTRAL XD IM LE NEUTRAL EVERYONE hahaha AM I LE NEUTRAL YET T-TO YOU GUYS hahaha MAN I WAS LE ARGUING YOU, BUT i stayed le neutral at the end of le argument i madestfu you total trash npc normie fucking l2post

>>539822980Why are you so mad though? You seem low IQ, is that why?
>>539824151keep npcposting normie! LETS GO NORMIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will never understand what goes on in the minds of the people that seemingly out of nowhere go afk jungle.
>Mid doesnt buy BKB versus Earth shaker >Cant play>gets raped everytime he gets stunned one time>gets a 53 min skadi.very epic, yeah that totally wasnt your fault that you AFK farmed a useless item after getting raped non stop.
>>539825704what the fuck do you think. they are literally thinking le normieNOW there is times to leave the lanes but ive seen people get so mad at me that i accidentally fed a kill min 2 cuz i was fucking only 300 units out of position that they just leave the fucking lane AT LEVEL 2 when their neutral farming capability is fucking nothing
Lol some of you niggas needs a Snickers bar
Some of you guys just need to play on anonymous mode
>>539825704They got tilted what's the mystery here lol
>>539826287>>539823037>le zoomer hivemind tiktok fucking npcposting has to le interject le -opinion- (see: forced truth) because le thread (you arent even in time nigga, lmao, you think i dont know you are a normie) LOOKS LE CRAZY AND SILLY XDdime a dozen 1/10 normie post trash "muh current" I AM LE GOVERNMENT MAN 923,523,543 SPACE NIGGERS KILLED liarholy shit i have never dunked someone so hard before>inb4 le mods from calling my post a le shitpost just cuz i meme so hardholy shit

>point out that mars isn't strong in lane (fact)>schizo has a meltdownwhy though
>tfw I have never been above 11k behaviour scoreI think I have never gotten the true dota experience. I am used to teammates arguing and throwing in pick phase and going afk or feeding over the smalles things.
>>539827458go back plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssswhy are you posting here if you dont like it YOU FUCKING NORMIE
>>539827608I like it here, maybe you should stop projecting
>>539827590Go anonymous modealready up 500 com score points and only going up from theremy behavior score stays at 10.1k though it's like my com score has to catch up first
what does dislike do
mars sucks balls, and you can suck mine too lil spergrino
kishi kishi miaw miaw kishi kishi miaw miaw miaw
>communication score drops below 7k>games have never been better Hmmmm
>>539830304Just play on anonymous mode, no chat, no pings, only tips remain because you can't block those, unfortunately.I couldn't break over 8k behavior score before I started doing this.You can't even see that it is the same guy on your team that was in the game before and went 0/50 so you can pretend it's somebody else.
>play vs a mid Earth Spirit, offlane Mars and a Lion + Hoodwink support duo>1 of my 3 cores purchased BKB vs that lineup, and he did it at minute 37I don't get it. Is it fun for them to not be able to play the game because they're permanently stunned or dead?
i play offlane and i'll like initiate and the enemy team will throw all their spells on me and i die but we win the fight and then the game but it ends with me like 2/8 and i feel like a loser

>>539837184expect him. hes only le jumpman. he is very squish and ganking him does hurt. Pick up a lesh if you gotta
>>539837184khanda
Are Puck players respected? How are they perceived by the playerbase?
>>539838028Bitches but you didn't hear that from me
>>539837184just stun him and fuck his ass
>>539838028Hated by the enemy if they are good, hated by their team if they are bad and yes it's very noticeable
Whats is so good about ES arcana? I honestly don't get the hype behind it.
>>539838028I only respect offlane puck players (me)
>>539838738Poorfags missed out

next new hero should be a possum
>>539831019how to get cute jap gf
>>539825959>buy bkb>get stunned once from 1000 miles away>dies anywaysBKB is overrated
>>539842652If you're white just go to Japan.
>>539842652get lean
>>539845461He said a cute jap gf, only the equivalent of western coalburners cares about white people
i think it would be funny if they made a sloth hero>100 move speed>10 attack speed>0.1 turn rate>500 melee attack range>500 attack damage>can climb trees like Monkey King>5000 daytime vision range when in a treeidk what his abilities would be though, lol
>>539846295lol how random would that be
>>539846423it would be funny being a sloth support and sitting in a tree in lane and hitting the enemy heroes really slowly
>>539842652same way you get any other type of gf. Be handsome, good personality, be able to provide for her and future children, be interesting and more importantly be out there. Hope that helped
>>539846639it didn't but thanks for taking the time, preciate it
what the fuck were they thinking
>>539848092What was wrong with Weave? Why do they keep trying to give him a new ult every year.
>>539848092They should revert the nerfs, they only added them because people were too retarded to just follow the line to him
>>539846295>innate: sloth can receive and use items gifted to him>passive ability #1 is Echo Sabre basically, each attack is 2 attacks>active ability #1 is he can latch onto teammates and ride on them and also attack enemies and cast abilities while riding teammates>passive ability #2 is he is 100% debuff immune at all times (can be deactivated with break)>ultimate ability is a single target debuff immunity piercing stun that stuns the target for 7 seconds, but it has a really long cast point and takes forever to cast
>>539848692Giving your whole team three ACs was just too strong. It was a hugely impactful team fight ultimate that was however not flashy at all, so it was bad for spectating too.
>>539690969Jugg, too rng, either super strong or completely useless, and 90% useless as it's easy to build around it. Remove it and make swiftslash ult with charges
I love everything about dazzle except for his ulti, I HATE IT
>>539849983same, i hadn't played in almost a year, and i saw what they changed his ult to, and i just can't accept it, it feels so weird to me
>>539846631isnt that just treant protector

Thinking of getting back into this game after a few-years break. Did they ever bring back those old arcanas, like queen of pain and windranger and uhhhhh drow ranger? I remember all the cool shit in this game was unobtainable because muh fomo
Out of curiosity, does anyone still play non-Turbo matches? Turbo just feels so so so much better. I can't imagine going back.
>>5398576612 turbo games i played took 40 minutes so i went back to ranked.
>>539857542WR, yes, and they just brought back ES.
>>539855882>>539856235Random ignores your least played 25 heroes, so it's not truly random.
>>539850870That might be him next patch
>literally every game is over by the 5 minute markGenuinely what happened to this game? Every game is decided by the matchmaking, whoever gets the least amount of griefers wins. Maybe 5% of all games are actually competitive.
>>539865276its called having no ranked reset in years
>>539865276its called being in the shadow pool
What's up dotards? Don't reply to this post if you're happy with the state of the game and love Valve.

Is Holy Locket even a good item? Who would want to build it? Dawnbreaker?
I wish Dota heroes looked like this. Fucking gay and retarded Valve company.
>>539867939storm spirit, at least bzm was doing it in TI
>>539868079that's hoodwink
>>539868079It would be looking like that right now if China had acquired the rights instead of Valve.
926k dotards logging in today but this website remains dead, thanks to drumpf and the incel movement the new dotardfriends will never learn all the memes in the grimoire, thanks chuddies, you really ruined it
>>539868743It's all bots man.
>>539868743This place really tanked after the soijak discord shut the site down for a couple of weeks
>>539868787I'd rather have bots than half the people I get on my team
>>539868868I get it but these are not real numbers anyway.
what went wrong
>>539868980doesn't fit the hotd mememeta
Lol its bots cope is funny yes dota 2 is alive and well i know crazy concept
highest iq players: naga siren and tb carry
>ISSA BOTS>GAME ISSA DEAD, TRUST ME
>>539869520anon... naga carry, she...
>>539869546It is. And yes it's botted and full of wintraders and boosters as well. It's fucked. Not to mention mentally ill ruiners regardless of the skill range.
deadlock won, wrap it up boys
won the gayest shit of all time award lmao
I am a Computer Shop Retail Sales here in the PH (SEA) that custom build PC low to high budget, I noticed the increased of inquiries about about DOTA 2 Build (APU or GPU). It makes me happy to see fellow players coming back or teaching their kids to play the game or new player want to try the game. BTW Roblox still top one pc building inquiries for gaming. Just sharing
>>539870138Congratulations anon. You deserve it!

>>539871014furfag meltdown? must be a day that ends in y
i forgot i was on the most depraved site ever, i only ever replied normally and suddenly i'm now branded as an x fetishist.
why do you type like a black teenager
>>539867939Literally FREE targeted heals.Right now? Nobody would build it as a core item because HotD exists. After it gets nerfed, you'll probably see it on the usual "healer" support types again like Io, Chen, and pos 5 Tinker.
holy locket will always be SHIT because ICEFRAUD ruined the game by giving everyone immense amounts of free gold so no support would buy it when they can just get more expensive and powerful itens by doing nothing and stealing assists in team fights

>>539873017Why would somebody lie on the interwebs? You silly anon.
you don't realize how fucking bad weekend dota is until you consider banning PA so your team doesn't feed her (5k btw)
Dotards...
>>539869520>Nagayes>TBlmao
>>539875909league of lesbians is getting less and less played in most of those countries, dota has been gaining a lot of popularity in brazil for instance, china can also flip at some point now that valve is bringing TI back there again, SEA is also getting tired of mobile mobas and they would return to dota with a little incentive
League of lesbians looks so sterilized. Do people really like that?
>>539877304no, people play it because they think they can get a girlfriend doing so
A little late to the party, but how did XG choke this hard in TI?
>spam ping to go rosh>the team chooses to chase bristle instead>some time passes>my team is smoking on botlane, bristle is there, they use radar and chase>we see the enemy AM going to rs on ward>I start spam pinging, I use vc>they keep chasing bristleWe had an advantage the entire early-mid game and it was completely wasted, fuck weekend dota
>>539877494ame
>>539877494Ame didn't manage to land a good omnislash once post-laning phase. ES only had two decent blinkslams but neither resulted in them killing Medusa, although they almost got her with that second one. They eventually ended up countering Jug every step of the way while pushing their shit it in with both Naga and Medusa. Long story short: XG's hard hitters just fucked up.
i got a bristle with the warpath facet and he hasnt pressed it once
>>539878070truly a specimen
why is this allowed?
>>539868079Seriously, I'm waiting for one of the gacha universes to make a moba game. It's the perfect opportunity for them to do so.>big cast of characters that's beloved>monetization can be skins>all the Dota and LoL players are tired of their games and how the game is nothing like it used to be
>>539878717dota is run by bots then valve makes profit on the market
>Get put in Low Prio because Dota's servers shit the bed>First Win doesn't count because someone on my team ragequit>Loss streak because I somehow get the most retarded niggers on the server in my game, several times, always on my team.
>>539879303Low priority is a great excuse to practice my meepo and brewmaster
>>539877304league is like cod. people don't play it because it's good they play it because their friends play it
>>539879369It's Single Draft, you don't get 4 Heroes picked randomly.
>>539879369Sorry sweetie, only our target demographics (latinx and ukrainians) get the fun heroes. You will get four heroes that are useless with retarded teammates.
>>539877913he had a great omni on mag but mag lived with 1% hpreally stunted jugg's game
>pros pick juggernaut>they refuse to buy aghsCan someone explain this to me? These are people getting paid millions to play this game for a living... and they play worse than people at my 4k pubs.
>>539880878who are you referring to?
>>539881036probably that guy ame who blew a 2-1 lead in the finals
>be the best fucking healer support ever>still get outhealed by enemy Jugg because he had 3 STR teammatesIt's not fair... Why does he get to do % healing?
>>539881337that would be dumb since he bought it
>>539881401did he though? it was his 7th item
>>539881484you just confirmed that he did in fact purchase itnow apologize
>>53988151299.9% of pub players wont get to this stage
>>539881484seriously why are pros like this? They are suppose to be the very best of the best, and they refuse to actually buy some of the best items and lose games because of it.Just like how they play bane and refuse to skill enfeeble.
>>539881554what do pub players have to do with it
>>539881631im gonna guess they buy aghs because its the only thing that makes jugg a relevant hero today
>>539881562>and they refuse to actually buy some of the best items and lose games because of it.>refusehe bought the aghs dummy and held it for 8 minutesit did absolutely nothing
>>539881725>everything about jugg is a tempo hero>his healing ward that allows for the best pushing in the game>his ulti is one of the strongest in the game and only falls off lategame when supports and heroes can afford items to counter it>an early aghs makes him close to unstoppable as he has pretty much 2 ulties and you can't avoid them bothAnd what do pros do with Jugg? They afk farm for 50min and only buy aghs when even the enemy supports have 2 items that can nullify it... if only you could push early with jugg, buy aghs early when the enemy doesn't have neutrals OR items to be able to avoid the ulti and actually win fights!?Nah lets wait 50min to buy it!
>>539881902>moves the goal posts
>>539880712You sure you're not confusing this with Dusa? The one that got saved by Naga's song at the last moment?
>>539882078no, im not confusedim talking about this playhttps://youtu.be/TGmnhNbna8Q?t=40477you are the one who is confused
baldtoro did say ame had shit build on g5, but honestly fighting against falcons line up on that game is such a nightmare to play with
>>539881512>>539881725>>539881930Come on Anon, you know the Anon was talking about how Ame should've bought the Aghs as an early item for midgame teamfights, not at 50 minutes after they lost their base and has been losing and dying to Medusa and Mag for who knows how long. Don't act dumb. Item timings and the order you buy the items matter.
>>539882342>Come on Anon, you know the Anon was talking about how Ame should've bought the Aghs as an early item for midgame teamfights,im not having a conversation with that anonim replying to this anon>>539880878who is wrongmoving the goalposts doesnt fix being retarded
>>539882448>Uhmmm acktually he bought boots 5min before the match ended so in fact boots are not a good item to buyYou are disingenuous and only posts this shit for the sake of arguing. Don't make it so obvious if you're doing that shit
>>539882448is this what you spend your days doing?>nuh uh he bought it as his 79th item so he did in fact buy itautistic fucking virgin get a life
>>539882637>You are disingenuous and only posts this shit for the sake of arguing. im not the one moving the goal posts after getting btfo>Don't make it so obvious if you're doing that shityou're just mad cause you are wrong
>>539882660had to come defend your boyfriend?
Duke it out in zxc lobby , losers
a virgin and a namefaggot are the only people posting hereand you still think dota is alive
>>539882884hey virgin
uh oh malding, time to reset your clock lil bro, what's it called again? 2 more weeks? haha
>>539882448>im not having a conversation with that anonYes you are. Stop splitting meaningless hairs and derailing the topic.
>>539881562This is the pro level. They had every item and neutrals to make omni slash a dead spell. It's next to useless at this level. You can buy it in your shit pubs because no one you play with knows what outworld staff does or will ever buy a lotus orb or ghost scepter. It doesn't matter if he bought it second item because they had already lost by then. The game was over at the 10 minute mark. They just stalled for another 40.
>ask friend if he wants to play>no answer>1 hour later he's "show as offline" playing some other game with literal randomsk message received won't bother you again
>>539883010see >>539881902And you do know jugg can use items when he omni... and there's an item called nullifier that removes ALL the stuff that counters omni?
>>539883092i dont think he is your friend, anon
>>539882992>Yes you aream i? funny how you didnt mention mid game timing until after getting proven wrong>Stop splitting meaningless hairs and derailing the topic.right after you stop being disingenuous
>>539883167>and there's an item called nullifier that removes ALL the stuff that counters omni?it doesnt do shit to outworld staff which dusa had
>>539883167>and there's an item called nullifier that removes ALL the stuff that counters omniOk, so he just needs a 4.3k item to make sure his 4.2k item isn't completely useless. And he's supposed to farm this 8.5k worth of items with what exactly? By the way, the game was over by the time he finished battlefury.
>>539883225yeah im starting to feel that way as well but i have a billion other events that say otherwiseshow as offline is the worst feature developed for any platform ever
>>539883382>show as offline is the worst feature developed for any platform everhe would just hide from your ass in other ways
>>539883431don't carei'd rather not know or just get a no instead of being ghostedbut i have my secret weapon, this is when i launch a game i don't really like but he likes and spend the rest of the evening playing it
>>539883540>i'd rather not know or just get a no instead of being ghostedbeing ghosted is not knowing......
>>539883576nah back in the day if someone was offline on lets say msn you had no idea what they were doing they could be in africa or playing oblivion fuck if i know i don't carehowever steam and dota is so fucking flawed that you can see if someone is playing even if they hide their game, online presence and match history because dotabuff still updates "last match played x hours ago" lmao
>>539883716stalking someone to determine their status has nothing to do with ghosting
>>539883785your mom sucks your dads dick every night
>>539883848as she should
The fact Ame purchased aghs in the game shows that he had considered the item all along. He deemed that it was not worth the gold over other options.Really a different situation entirely than if ignored the item completely by refusing to purchase it.
Is echo sabre/Harpoon a honeypot item on offlaners? I get that it's good on Sven pos1 and on Tiny when Tiny core was meta but on heroes like slardar, dawn it seems totally useless when you ought to buy bkb AC Aghs
>>539877528If you're the carry just go to rosh and start hitting him yourself
>>539883092I removed all my friends that were lower mmr than me problem solved
>>539884825i wouldn't have any friends left lmao
>>539882342Don't waste your effort on the /d2g/ resident autist. He has a very specific posting style and should be ignore by everyone else.
>>539884515the fact that he didn't build diffusal and let medusa farm instead is enough for you to realize he was betting against his team
>>539884858Well i guess its that time friend i have news for you. You DontHaveAnyFriendsSry it had to be me
>>539884985hey thread bully
>>539885112i don't have any friends if i have higher mmr than them? that doesn't make any sense anon
>>539884605On Dawn it seems especially bad since the echo procs and wiffs when you use starbreaker. It's a shame too since harpoon's active is pretty good for dawn.

Thinking about that time 10 years ago I told a random Earth Spirit pos 4 to stop dragging creeps or else I promise I'll walk down mid, and he stopped dragging creeps.

thanks to whoever told me to just buy regen in lane that shit works id been playing old school dota where you go into lane with 3 tango and walk back to fountain you needed hp
Which mid hero should I main to try and climb out of my pisslow? I was thinking about invoker, but I fear I'm too slow to pilot him properly.
primal beast
namefag tranny answers dont count
>>539889224right now just play sand king, strong laner, and scales late game with magic damage
hey its not my fault 4chan made this feature you know.anyway, yes try primal beast, super fun dinosaur
0-8 pos 1 and 0-16 pos 5 some battles are not meant to be won
>>539890101
>>539889224better to learn invoker when you are in the shitranks than trying to do so at a higher mmr.
>>5398905450-9 pos 4 now gg its forced 50 time
>>539890101>>539891979it's called being in the shadow pool, try earning more good boy points

>>539892170I'm 10.1k behavior but 9.3k com scoreis it shadowpool material
>>539893348well, you should always try to be near the max, the quality of the games improve
you know what? I'm done with team gamesI'm done with subhumans who dont follow my engage. I'm done with subhuman supports who are doing nothing for the entire laning phase. I'm done with niggers who say Im feeding when Im the only one making plays, ready to die just to secure multiple kills. I'm done with carries who afk farm the entire game just to continue being useless. Im done with literal NPCs who would rather spam ping you when you die when the enemies are diving than you know, actually tp and help out.I'll play some rts game, dont know which one yet, but I want to play 1v1.
>>539893526you'll just find some else to blame
>>539893526the only rts worth playing is wc3
>>539887286I have not communicated in game for the last about maybe 7 yearsall chat turned off as well.
>>539878725Yeah man I want a new game in the genre where not only do I have to buy characters but I can only get them via gacha pulls. Surely that will be a competitive masterpiece.Gacha addicts are subhuman.
>>539881382Becuase you can cancel his healing with one auto attacks.

>>539894712what are you asking for then
>>539893526based king i kneel
>>539884605Good for universal ie Mag/Aba. Okay on Slardar depending on the game. Dogshit on Dawn.
>>539885112How does she stay balanced on those feet? They look like high heels without the actual heel part.
>>539884605offlaners shouldn't build right click itens unless they have skills that make sense for it like slardar, magnusthe echo saber slow is too mild to justify building it for lockdown
>>539894810if people are satisfied with the patch
Does this really need to work on towers?
>>539894849Shouldn't abaddon go for the radiance manta blink orchid build?
>>539895450Radiance build is the best but if you're having a shit lane you can't afford to spend 20 minutes getting it, Harpoon is the backup option.
>>539868743No body below 21 use this site unironically
>>539895195I hate the map so much every other issue is non-existent to me right now, they need to cut the outer map first and then I'll pay attention to the other stuffthe hero balance is good right now, few heroes are unpickable
>>539868817It's been tanking since 2016>shut the site down for a couple of weeksIt was only like a week and a half.
the real tragedy is the loss of drawfags
heres your carry bro
>x dota is so unbearable all the games are shit because the PLAYERS are BADyou get 4 teammates and 5 enemies
>>539897317>SinsGo easy on Johnny. It's tough to juggle a dozen different professions as is.
>>539897521you have a 10% impact on the game you are playing, if your lane support/carry feeds or isn't applying pressure, his and by proxy your impact are getting lower while the enemy laners' are getting higher
>>539898949I strategically tilt and feed at the start and then start playing seriously people automatically assume im bad from the start and then dont expect it when i make big moves
The worst are the teammates blaming you for their death, after having died 4 times without you. Saying you body blocked them at 5% hp or something.Those retards should go die in ukraine already. Waste of oxygen
Im so detached from the outside world i barely have anything to complain about

>>539901017Shadow Shaman, desu, didn't care that much about any of them
why do dotards care so much about some aegis trinket
>>539894849Isnt blink bkb Aghs then some aura/armor item better on mag as well?
>>539902506Depends on the game.
>>539900763It's over. This was our one last chance to revive the game.:(
yeah i guess i shouldn't have expected to win the game where the enemy arc warden has midas aghs at 14 minutes
Bulba is now coaching Virtus Pro
>>539900763They need a proper compendium
Every game I watch on the dota in game player is a complete stomp. The game quality is fucking trash.
>>539905831valve doesn't allow you to watch the high skill games now because secret strats or something
>>539900763you guys realize that number is at least gonna halve when deadlock releases publicly right?

i legit got chinese people from santa cruz on eu serversENOUGH IS FUCKING ENOUGH ALREADY
how are you supposed to play dota with an anti mage in one corner of the map, bristle the other, some support nigger afk buying meteor hammer while the enemy constantly 5 mans anytime you try anything 1v1god i hate the people that play this game so fucking muchi wish hots wasn't a fucking dead game you had actual forced brawling for objectives instead of this china 2008 gameplay
>>539907375my nagas
what did the tiny ritualposter used to say? I forgot, something settle the quarry
>>539910476>how are you supposed to play dota you're not, it's deadlock era now
>>539900986It's all bots in Dota tho, nobody came for the big patch update. But the big influx was for the even that gives you a tiny tiny chance to get super rare items, something that is designed around being botted.
>>539910889based schizo
>539910841disturbing
>>539911115How is that schizo? People didn't come back for a big update patch, but they all "came back" for an event that only gave you a tiny chance to get super rare items.You seriously think people won't bot like crazy to have a chance to get those?
>>539911637what event?
>>539911637The untradable, ungiftable items? I don't see any point in botting that
why are people picking mid lion so much the past weekwhy is every single one of them a fucking useless retard
>>539909818>Your support on rankeds
>>539911910I've seen a few pos1 lion players recently
>>539911910probably topson
>>539911910its fun you should try having fun while playing videogames sometime
Imagine having sex with Nyx Assassin and every time you hilt your dick into his abdomen you hear a faint 'nyx' coming from him, no matter how fast or slow you go
>>539912602I don't care if they do it in unranked but they play it in ranked. I have a 0% winrate playing with mid lion because it's fucking shit. I look at their profiles and these people spamming it have a 30% winrate on it at best. Yet they keep picking it. It's literal griefing.
yasha & kaya Dawnbreaker is the real deal
>>539911910Imagine being a meta slave, poor soul.
Streamers like Topson doing meme build>OMG HE'S SO SMART HE'S LITEARLLY DEFINING THE NEW META>THIS IS WHY HE'S A PRO AND WE'RE NOT!Random guy doing the exact same thing and having the exact same impact.>OMG YOU'RE GRIEFING REPORT>STOP TROLLING THAT'S NOT META YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW THE METAWhy is the Dota playerbase like this?
>>539913214I don't watch streamers and don't give a shit about what Topson has or has not played. I don't even care about people picking offmeta shit as long as they play it well. But every single mid lion I've seen has been useless dogshit whether they're on my team or not. I look at the profiles of people playing it and they have terrible winrates too, the stats speak for themselves.
>>539913214because flopson makes it work, and more importantly he does it arbitrarily and not because monkey see monkey dothere are STILL ruskies who pick AA mid and feed for literally no other reason than because dendi did it in a pro game once
>>539913509I get reported if I go like 10/1 playing mid as Bane and have big impact throughout the entire game.
>>539911637The event that gives untradable and ungiftable items or the event that ended a week ago?
>>539913893The International items are also untradeable
>>539913214>>539913873become a pro first chuddie
>>539913873yeah because any retard can pick a strong laner hard support and win mid lane, you will just get raped after 20-25 minutes unless you make someone rage quit.
>>539913506I have positive wr with aa mid

>>539915382Cool. Again I don't care as long as you play it well but I have yet to see a mid lion that isn't completely worthless, yet people keep picking it.

Dude i h*ckin' love le epic permastun gorilla of infinite damage!
>>539920226Why did they hype him up
>>539923097they tried to make it an NA achievement
>>539923027Duel doesn't stun
>>539923027just ward his jungle
>>539923327shaker doesn't have duel
>>539923709Oh that's who you meant, he doesn't have infinite damage
played cucklock for the first time and holy shit that game is GARBAGE icefraud really is fucking donezo, they should hire euls to make an actual good game
>Attacks in Ranged Form on the affected enemy unit have a chance to additionally slow and deal bonus physical spell damage.physical spell damage? my brain hurts
>>539924518it's a spell (not a right click) but gets reduced by armor, it's that simple
>>539924518Spells can do physical damage yes, it's not how the spell is described in-game but it would mean the damage was increased by effects that increase spell damage done/taken rather than ones that reduce magic resistance, I doubt it comes up much
>>539924768so you mean it triggers kanda also?
>>539924518Spells do magical or physical, you always had to check. e.g. Dazzle did physical with his spells, Witch Doctor Death Ward used to do physical (now Pure), etc.
>>539925298Khanda only triggers on unit targeted spells, not attack procs
>>539924518its poorly phrased because SPELL refers to the ability itself, some abilities deal phys damage, other magic, other pure.the word "SPELL" is not inherently tied to magic damage. Battle hunter for example is a spell that deals phys damage. Spell basically refers to "Ability" because Spell amp works with Battle hunger in this case.
and right clicks are always physical
>>539925610Forgetting someone?
>>539925883That is some god awful art.Dota hates its community.
>>539812615I played first in 2012, left in 2017. This ti really made me want to check the game again, so I guess there are many like me in those numbers.
>>539879303Stop playing competitive and ranked ffs
https://voca.ro/1lI6nAMkX1y3 We don't love the iPhone 17, we have ePhone17. E Coli phone. He is Okay.
Jesus Christ, muting everyone at the start of the game is a literal cheat code
I suspect valve is going to release an entirely new Lina arcana, the full works like qop/drow/wr, and the old one will be upgraded to hero base slot & will make any wearable hair full fire
>>539927562Just use anonymous mode, does that automatically and hides their names and avatars so you can't tell who's who
This was sexo and they're fucking up hard by not releasing arcanas of the same quality for every other character.
>>539926072you do better
>>539927786Only human female, and they're working on it, slowly.
Lone Druid arcana
>bounty hunter 1i euthanize

>>539928151Nobody can do better with such a god awful design.Muerta is horrendous.
