Anons, how do I learn to play winter wyvern? I'm a newfag
I played her, and I feel like I legit griefed my own team half the time
I just seem to ult at very unfortunate times, but I can't not ult at all, can I?
whenever I ulted, the team would whine that they're not dealing damage, and I remember actually saving an enemy hero once
when do I ult? After the big targets die? But all enemy heroes are here
should I wait for my team to cast their shit, then ult?

If I purchase something like Assault Cuirass
Is its aura effect actually felt by my teammates like Outworld Destroyer?
>>
>>553339939
she is legitimately broken, though. She needs a nerf pretty bad, if you played her enough you'd realize this as well. Low mana cost for a lot of damage that can be spammed at a low cooldown is kinda stupid. You can just jump on the enemy with rebound and dispose them while auto attacking them and they can't do jack shit about it. Unless you're actively getting counter picked you're winning the lane no matter what.
>>
>>553340206
>Is its aura effect actually felt by my teammates
yeah that's what an aura is
>like Outworld Destroyer?
what do you mean "like OD", OD doesn't have aura, yeah OD benefits from auras, same as any other hero.

why are there so many new people playing dota 2, a game that gets no patches? sometimes it seems the less valve touches the game the more popular it becomes
>>
>>553340523
I mean, its not awful
you generally purchase AC for the armor, both the armor bonus and -armor.
the attack speed is nice for yourself but its usually not the major benefit, OD likes it, and I am sure he likes the +armor but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it just because you have an OD on your team.

the -5 armor (deso is -6) is basically a deso for just being near you, works on buildings too (both auras) so its very good for helping you take base and making your base harder to take.

towers have a smaller "protection" circle, if an enemy hero is outside that circle and you attack him, the tower will not attack you if it has other targets too shoot

Towers only aggro on auto-attacks, not spells.

So if you're just blasting him with nukes, the tower won't care.
And if you manually cast "orbs" like Silencer Glaives or like Huskar Spears, it won't care either because to the tower, you're just casting spells.

On the flipside, if you turn auto-cast on the orb and then right-click the enemy hero it counts as attacking so you aggro the tower so you have to do it manually if you want to avoid tower aggro.

>>553359718
yeah towers also have the aggro range similar to creep aggro range https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_3SwnPkhDA

you can easily attack an enemy if you are outside that range and creeps and attacking the tower. if the creeps are walking, you attacking the hero will be higher priority. you have to time your attack with the creep attack an enemy (and the creep has to be closer to get the aggro)

also, dont forget that if you have auto-attack on after spells (and items), when you use a spell that has 0 backswing and when you use items on enemies, your hero will immediately issue an attack if in range, so the tower might switch aggro to you if you are close (normally items or spells dont aggro towers). so use shift queue to move after the spell/item

>Every game side lanes will bitch and moan to mid for ganks
Wtf, why is it mid that should gank the lanes rather than the support that should rotate to mid? Why do these faggots cry when I keep my mid opponent entirely busy and underfarmed?
>>
>>553364216
idk i never touched WC3, dota 2 has existed for much longer than dota 1 was relevant but people still use boomerisms like calling ancients thrones
>>
>>553364352
Urn/Vessel -> Boots -> Mjollnir
Then you show up to every fight or people bitch and moan about how you're not helping them.
>>
>>553364216
Yeah, WC3 engine only allowed 1 orb to affect a hero, so plenty of attack modifiers would not stack, or stack imperfectly.
>>
>>553360860
first of all, try to pick it with a melee 4 or a carry melee, otherwise dont because dark seer cant play alone let alone be the one in front
second, there are two lanes: one where you can spam ion shell (melee carry) and one that doesnt (range carry, wave cleaners or dispel) so dont just spam ion shell just because on the lane
I like getting soul ring and GG first

if you have a melee carry, use ion shell/surge on him over you and get a dagger to be in position
Pipe/lotus depending on what you need, ive seen people get crimson guard over GG and it worked really well against us
Scepter is a must eventually after your core
>>
>>553364496
>why should the highest leveled hero in the game with mobility placed right between the other two lanes not gank
Let me guess, you pick some dogshit mid without any mobility and expect to sit afk in mid for 20 minutes

there's an old friend of mine that i haven't talked to in a long time that literally only plays turbo games and he gets sent to low priority after every 10 or so turbo games

he's playing single draft right now
no idea how his account isn't banned yet

I play carry but I'm an offlaner enjoyer from time to time, and the difference in queue times is hilarious. If I queue for carry I'll have to wait on average 15 minutes for a match, if I select offlane it's 2 minutes MAX.

the most foolproof way to win right now is grouping up as 5 on min10, taking off their t1 towers one by one, torm or even rosh at min20, choke out their jungle and start pushing for their t2s. it's doable in pubs too

I've been dropping the call lately in my pubs by saying 'play for x tower' then instantly saying to play for another one before my teammate's mind wanders and they get the twisted idea of walking backwards into our own jungle and it's been to great success. Obviously you need a draft that can perform early on but it's not impossible. This video game is really about who 5man firsts now it's kinda fucked up but that's the way it is

peruvians have so much more soul than russians
they're thirdies but they're like actually happy and they genuinely enjoy playing the game
meanwhile russians just completely lack any sort of positive emotion in them and until a while ago i wasn't even sure WHY they play the game because it sure seems like they don't enjoy it, until i had an epiphany: they don't play the game because they enjoy playing it, they play the game to inflict suffering upon others
it's like the entire nation of russia has sadistic personality disorder, or at least the dota players i guess
meanwhile pablo from peru just got back from the guinea farming fields, spent his hard earned money on 2 hours at a lan cafe and he's about to have the time of his life playing dota 2
is his IQ below 80? it is. it doesn't matter because he's still got soul

you know what pisses me off the most?
watching dumb fucking idiots on my team sit on their buyback and watch the enemy push tower and take barracks

>>
>>553389949
i also feel the difference in quality. when im on carry, it is most of the time a clown fiesta of people feeding, sup5 doesnt know how to pull or that he should right click the fucking enemy, or offlane picks pl or some shit.

i still find it so hard to understand the economics of a basic woman being able to make money with low effort softcore porn on OF, but i guess most women are too doughy/old/ugly for OF and theres a whole lot of south asians who apparently spend what limited income they have on onlyfans. i guess those people are just really thirsty for any kind of female acknowledgment
>>
>>553403891
I think the consumer base for onlyfans is thirdies and married men. OF also has the whole interactive aspect to it. I mean it's just like the nu-camgirl streamers on twitch who interact with their audience and just show cleavage, theres no incentive to give them money

where, in india? desu i called it out as a south asian thing since they seem to be different in a lot of ways from other thirdies.

as far as i can tell the average south american or balkan thirdie will either be unemployed or working some gay low wage job, then they'll go home, grief a match of dota 2, have a laugh over it, then have a drink with their thirdie buds and fuck their thirdie gf and fall asleep.

however south asians seem different in the sense that i never see them actually talk about living their lives or enjoying anything, like all seem to do is try to make money and gain status, then proceed to punt their meager earnings on the stock market in an effort to make it big (and have their money stolen by jane street), or they'll spend it on onlyfans or some other porn thing. i have my issues with most third worlders but i can at least understand your typical middle easterner or hue, but i legit cannot comprehend the south asian mentality. its like they're flesh robots that only exist to try to climb some imaginary ladder of wealth and status until they can buy a tesla. and also sex and female attention is like the only reason they do any of that, but they don't intermingle with the opposite sex in any kind of normal way, so they are don't know what to do
>>
>>553404414
have you ever looked at the comment sections of instagram 'models' (covert escorts)
it's all horny thirdies spamming emojis. same for the grok bikini thing that's been an issue these past few days. as it turns out, thirdies spend their income on porn too, it's not just westerners with more disposable income

its like 3 months to get it and its not even $100 if you play in the event and get levels from it.
lots of people get all the arcanas from just buying the bundle at the start + quests + fantasy/predictions
its like $30-50 if you really go out of your way
but lmao fuck doing that

the rereleased ones are more expensive, untradeable ultra rare from chests, its like $300-400 to get them.

It's probably a mixture of spite, ego and idiocy.
They think they should be the one snowballing and will make dumb plays to try and get kills and die, then they will try it again because last time was just a fluke and the enemy got lucky, and then again and again.

>>553449339
Those facets don't add anything though. Nor does giving every hero an aghs shard or aghs scepter upgrade add anything of value except more bloat.
Giving every hero new aoe abilities via the aghs way, or tranforming existing abilities to aoe that way makes every hero feel like generic slop late game.
They completely removed the identity of heroes.

You get auto-muted for the whole game when like 3+ people report/mute you, or like half of the people who aren't in a party with you.
The server also announces it to everyone in the lobby so they can laugh at you.

I had a guy spaz out real fucking hard once over a pos 4 supposedly stealing a last hit. He spent like 20 mins sperging out in chat. Eventually he got muted. He stood still in mid trying to talk to anyone. Once it became clear he was truly silent, he abandoned on the spot lmao and we lost.

But the bar to get muted is really fucking high. Pubs generally don't mute you unless they're 2k mmr redditors. Most people just have full mute on (which doesn't affect getting muted), or they would rather see all your blathering and whining for the whole game. If you got muted, then you really, really fucked up. It's not snowflakes and Valve keeping you down, it's you fucking up and being so unlikeable that pubs who normally don't care to mute you decide to mute you.
>>
>>553449918

Is it just impossible to climb out of the trenches playing support?
I've played basically only unranked for the duration this game is out and only recently started ranked because unranked has no solo queue and I'm getting pissed off with getting stuck with shitty stacks.
The cores that I'm getting in ranked though.
Holy fuck. These creatures are beyond garbage. They can barely even last hit.
It doesn't matter how well I play because none of them ever take advantage of my plays either because they are genuinely absolute garbage.
Is there any way to see what your MMR is in unranked?
>>

>enemy team laughs at, and then ignores him so that they can figure out which teammate to blame for their loss
I wish replays saved team chat, or at least have the game let you scroll through the chat log mid-game so that you can screenshot shit when you're not busy. Dude spent like 15 mins of a 45 min game dead and typing, holy shit.

Consensus was that it was Pudge's fault they lost, for not buying enough wards lmao.
The real reason the enemy team lost is because they had a carry Abaddon and Abaddon is SHIT.

As someone fairly new to DotA esports and the game in general it's jarring how amateur a lot of the production seems compared to other huge esports titles. Especially the in game spectating not even using an overlay or something is crazy. The commentators should be the least of your worries.
>>
>>553451492
you can sorta play support but you can never actually rely on anyone on your team capitalizing on your plays or really doing anything in particular. when i have to sometimes play with shitters and play pos 5 support, i pick something like primal beast and charge into the enemy. odds are the enemy duo is too retarded to help each other so i get kills and become another core eventually (shitters also don't know how to farm so there will be plenty of farm on the map for me)
>>
>>553451732
I play core and support altogether and believe me support is much less intense. you're just dogshit so you've cornholed yourself into being a support. a majority of supports dont even do their job right or don't know what objective to play for and have altogether extremely poor decisional skills
>>
>>553451617
>They're cores masquerading as supports.
Now you know the secret to climbing as support. :^)

The thing you should focus on isn't how pubs are retards who aren't making the ideal move, it's to just focus on what you need to do to make shit happen no matter the situation. If it means you have to buy a MKB on Crystal Maiden, so be it. If you can't make it happen, then it's either your fault or nothing you could have done. Either way, just focus on your own games and your own plays. And really, this has always been the case since the beginning.

pros advice for climbing as supp in the trench is to role abuse and farm as a core instead
you dont climb in the trench as a supp
>>
>>553452328
yes you do you just pick high early game impact supports like veno and undying
>>
>>553452439
youre not a pro
think they know more than you
>>
you should play core until at least 5~6k mmr because the players below that are subhuman
but climbing mmr is actually easier as a support from 7k and onwards than it is playing core, and much less stressful too
>>
>>553452328
yes you do you just avoid picking high grief supports like veno and undying

>>553452498
they dont know anything about the trench
pros played in a controlled environment even in pubs, it's literally a different game
in the trnch you pick an early game high impact support and since trench warfare child soldiers dont know how to play from behind you steamroll the game up
>>
>>553452439
this may have worked sometime in 2014 when a good support could utterly buck break multiple enemy cores so that they would never be able to enter the game again

nowadays though the game gives you a million opportunity to come back into the game, which in the context of you playing support for 4 retards, means a million opportunities for them to squander any advantage you gave them

To stay at Herald 1 in Dota 2, focus on reinforcing bad habits by neglecting fundamentals like last hitting, poor map awareness (getting caught out), not buying regeneration, picking complex heroes, dying unnecessarily, and getting caught up in hero kills instead of objectives like hitting the Ancient.

the ranking system is retarded, though. I'm getting AT LEAST 10 kills every single match no matter the hero I pick or whether I win or lose. My average is literally at least 10 kills if not more. I'm getting 20 some kills every other match and I get accused of smurfing and whatever the fuck else. I'm matched with braindead mongoloids and I'm supposed to think to myself that these people are as good as me. There's no two ways around it, this ranking system and calibration system is flawed and I'm living proof of the fact that I'm being placed among some of the worst players in the game while my skill level is way above theirs 99% of the time. I have over 7k hours into this gay faggot game.

past certain point people just report you for whatever the hell you do.

There is big difference between "trolling" and just giving up when its clearly a lost cause since your mid is 0/12 at mid 10 or their enemy pos 1 gets fed a million times by a clueless player who is probably just farming role queues or picked stupid shit and is paying for it.

without naming any of specific names, a lot of the cultures playing dota are obsessed with things like status, preserving face, posturing and not looking gay. once you understand each general cultural ethos of each one, you can usually avoid setting them off. you can also sometimes correct their behavior with certain mind control techniques. however even in the best of cases its rarely enough to domesticate a true creature

I'd really like to check Dota's player nationality statistics, specially what percentage of the playerbase is from either Russia or Peru. It's gotta be AT LEAST 70%, there's no way it's less than that.
I'd also like to know why the game became so popular in those countries specifically, like it's a massive thing there meanwhile in other countries Dota is literally irrelevant and nobody even knows what it is.

I really dislike psychology but some influential and known psychologists have real life proof that 80% and upwards of people are actually animals that have no moral or ethical basis or understanding of principles. Im sure in some parts of the world the % vary greatly.

WC3 runs on a potato battery so it was super popular with thirdies in net cafes, dota 1 then got big since was just a custom map for WC3. dota 2 also used to be a much lighter game than it is now.

yup, I know for a fact that they're false reports too because I did nothing in any of the categories

no matter what position you pick, if you start to lose the game you are probably going to catch a report or two over a set of 15

They reverted the system, probably because redditors cried about high behavior score being full of toxic players (which has always been the case). So now it's a slog where you just have to pray that your teammates won't waste reports on you. And understand that one slip up can reset a month of progress.
Personally I just stopped caring and play high/drunk.

The big issue is that high behavior score players are babies and significantly worse than their actual rank, because they actually get to play the real game and not engagee with the 1 vs 9 mental asylum. This leads to actually good, but more emotional players who managed to their behavior score back up getting somewhat upset at them for playing like shit.
Games get so much easier when it's high behavior vs high behavior, because these don't know how to play.
>>
goodboys can clown on toxic ego players all they want, but at the end of the day, being a toxic ego player is how you win at low behavior score.
>>
>>553496104
this is unironically 100% true
i'm at 9k currently so i get into both high and low BS games, and the high BS ones are pretty much free wins every time cause their offlane feeds me for 10 minutes nonstop

>>
>>553496306
This is why they try to keep behavior brackets separated, why there's such severe penalties. Because low behavior score players in high behavior games are effectively smurfing.

>>553499987
generally, your role as an antimage during the midgame is to make space by being the guy the enemy team is chasing around and if they don't, force towers. Buy your own wards, you're antimage, you can ward at extremely low risk.

You have to go battlefury and you have to aggressively, almost suicidally split push if you are losing. That might feel bad, but that's just how antimage works. You are the one hero in the game that can safely take the most risky farm. That's your role.
>>
>>553500189
>farm fast
in what world, his Q doesnt clear waves and he doesnt attack fast, he also cannot cleave.
>>
>>553500236
The trick is to drag creep wave aggro by attacking some enemy hero that's showing on the map then your passive will get triggered by the creeps and you'll clear the wave
He's also extremely efficient at farming the new jungle because it has a bunch of double camps and you can always hit both with max damage plasma field

this game is a psyop, the matchmaking is designed to engage you so that you spend years climbing up in ranks in order to get 'good' matches
>>
>>553499987
you can only do the funny meme builds if you are ahead. If you're winning by a lot, it doesn't matter what you buy, but if you are not, you should always do the most standard thing. This is why drafting unusual heroes is generally bad, because if you don't get ahead you probably lose.

dota is running a fucked up version of the matchmaking algo that won't get changed, they implemented it into deadlock and they immediately had to change it because every game was the same

>wins are hollow because the enemy was retarded and you stomped them all
>loses are hollow because you did great but your teammates literally ran it down


noobdy cares about this in dota because only third worlders (this thread) play the game and therefore they only care about winning, they have no concept of a 'hollow' win, for them the retard 'stomps' are great games and they click that they enjoyed the game when they got 50-10 on the other team

if i had to sum up the dota experience it would be akin to gambling
you get literally 15 or more shit games in a row until you finally get one good game that makes it all worth it

how is my playing supposed to change the games where I go mid, dominate their mid by 3 levels and take their tower at 7 minutes, then lose the game 1v9 because the other 4 people on my team are literally animals?

The psyop is that the matchmaking isn't real. Ever had a really good 5v5 game that had everyone playing well? You dont want to queue again because it's so satisfying. That's the psyop. The ideal dota is 5v5 with everyone playing well, they make you play thousands of games with AI bots because if you had a good game you wouldn't queue again. Satisfying games don't drive engagement.

You will literally never catch up without the battlefury, so you might as well try to get it. I have on occasion built a maelstrom when I've gotten absolutely shit on in lane, but it'll never beat the bf for sustain and farming. It's only really viable to do that in certain brackets.
