>>556251408Why is Dota YouTube filled with cancer with no personality or love and other games even deadlock have actually humans talking showing gameplay abd generally putting live in vids about the game?All we have is text on screen weirdos and washed up expro players who show 0 emotion and seem to hate playing
>>556252093be the change you see in the world
>>556252093most extreme case of only gameplay matters crowd
>>556252093Lack of region lock killed dota in the west (only westerners are human and can create good content)
>>556252801what is good deadlock content?
>>556252883huh? who cares about weeblock
>>556252997the poster you responded to
>>556252687Not for YouTube vids you boring fuck
>>556253132No?
>>556252093How come when I complained about this a few threads ago I got called a low-IQ tourist?!
>>556252883The people posting even basic gameplay seem approachable and actually humanIt’s not just dry gameplayAbd the analysis vids are well edited and from current year.Look at Funke as a well known example or zerggy as someone who streams that game and actually has fun with the game.
>>556253218what are you confused about>other games even deadlock have actually humans talking showing gameplay abd generally putting live in vids about the game
>>556253401So? I don't care about that
>>556253474ah, so it wasnt who cares it was "i dont care"i accept your apology
>>556252803Crazy how Dota has only one good porn artistSame with the lack of content on YouTube this game is undead.
>>556253539What the fuck are you talking about?
>>556253643how dumb you are
>>556253761You're talking absolute nonsense and blaming me for not understanding, you're the retard here
>>556253863you're too moronic to understand what is happening, ever
>>556247935buggy in the client yes not on ff desktop
>>556253959I know exactly what happened, and I know you're a fucking retarded schizo that thinks every poster that replies to you is the same person
>>556252093no EFL content creators because brits dont play videegames and americans chase trends, you'll notice deadlock is chock full of NA content creators atm because its the hot new thing. The only real people who make it as english content creators tend to be EFLs because accents turn people off, there are exceptions obviously but the majority are EFLs
>yooooo bro what if AM deleted your entire mana pool in 2 seconds, get it?>because he's le ANTI mage lol!
>>556254537>not bullying him out of lane in the early game>not farming him in the early-mid game>not turning him into a schizo with mid-game ganks as he tries to jungleuhhh...
>>556254756that doesn't make manaburn a dogshit mechanicliterally nobodyNOBODY enjoys playing against am
>>556254537I feel like there's not enough counterplay to mana burn mechanics in general which makes it incredibly frustrating to deal with for a lot of heroes, even outside of Medusa sometimes you just get EMP comboed and lose all your mana instantly on some low-int hero and it sucks ass. KnS is way too expensive for what it is and other than that there's... Eternal Shroud? Which doesn't work in all matchups.
>>556254871not dogshit*
WHY DOES THIS GAME TRIGGER MY SOCIAL ANXIETY SO BAD??? I wanna play...
>>556254289Most people don’t even talk in their vidsEven Elsa like tops on would been fine if they tried to be entertaining at allOr gorgc or anyoneeeeThere is such low amount of engagement
>the notail fly drama was actually like 5+ years agothat hit me right in the gut, it felt so recent. It's like I woke up from a long coma.
Honestly I just wish my computer could run deadlock so I could escape this dog shit
>>556256045I play a lot of deadlock and haven't touched dota in a couple years but dota is still my favorite competitive game. Playing certain deadlock heroes makes me miss playing dota, like Sinclair having a retard friendly version of Rubick ult. I just hate the larger map so fucking much I don't want to reinstall.
>>556254984maybe whoever ""balances"" this game now realizes that half the shit in it isn't fucking fun
>>556256609All you people complaining about the larger map just wanna fountain-camp people, fuck you
>>556256957Like I said it's been years but my problem with it was, for example, shit like shutting down a sven. trying to gank him in his now massive fucking jungle to no avail because he's got so much more space to run around in. then he comes back farmed anyway. It just felt like the final nail in the coffin for players that try to press their early advantage in favor of forced rubberbanding mechanics to keep teams from gaining a lead. Every game felt like a superficial slog.
>>556255018brother you are literally anonymous who cares
>>556257314t. too retarded to check the ancients behind t2if you take t1 and then don't occupy the lane (and by extension his jungle) you deserve every loss
>>556258073100% sure I'm a higher rank than you, I was immortal when I quit.
anyone else gets extremely bored past 27-32 minutes of the game?yeah, its cool that you can farm a camp in 2 hits and eat everything on the map but i would rather do some fighting after having to suffer farming for 30 minutes already
>>556258538if you don't have a rank (eu) then no you're not higher than me
>>556258637the most boring time is when you're at 15 min and dont have a farming item yet, playing muerta or windrunner or some shit you just wanna finish that maelstrom and then you have to farm another 2k for mjollnir
>>556258538you don't play the game but you're in here bitching about it?
>>556258965I was just talking about what made me quit? Retard
>>556258637Weird, that's my favorite part of the game. I'd say my least favorite is ultra late game because everything is so volatile and that awkward post-laning phase like this anon said >>556258902
*nullifies u*
>>556258637Most games end by then
what the fuck do you do against slark in lane as pos 3you cant fight him 1v1 becuse he just steals all your agi and attacks twice as fast as youhes super mobilepretty tanky for a pos 1like what are you supposed to do against himhis late game is also incredibly strong
>>556260974Pick ranged heroes
>>556261352he can literally jump on you whenever he wantsbesides, pick a ranged hero and have 0 initiation for midgame and then auto lose because between his leap, ult and aghs hes too slippery
>>556261569Just dodge his pounce?
>>556261668what do you mean dodge his pounce? its 700 range and he can also use it to disengage for free
>>556261823Just walk to the side?
okay end this dogshit event and put up the battlepass with TA and Luna arcana already
>>556262138are you baiting me or are you that dense?go into demo mode and look how big the range is and how huge is the hitbox on that thingand besides that, he ALSO CAN US IT TO RUN AWAY, it doesnt require him to click that shit on enemies
>>556262261It will be a lore event like Crownfall with loli Pugna and Rubick's magical schoolgirl protege
>>556262278Just more to the side, it's not hard to dodgeAre you standing on top of him or something?If he runs away he's not farming or getting kills, so he's not winning lane
does kez q(both) proc diffu>>556260974he has like 500 hp go punch him
>>556259282classic dotard behaviour
>winning game>enemy has mars with victory feast>no one on my team buys bkb>keep getting mars ulti'd and die to luna + puck aghs>everyone gets a billion fucking health + pipe on mars>cant kill anyoneyeah i dont know why russians are so fucking brain dead but its not exactly a new discovery
>>556262637>>556262609i mostly play melee so its impossible to dodge reallyits not that hes constantly running away, its that he has an escape option that is good so you cannot just walk up to him and catch him with more movement speed, its not like hes gonna sit behind his creeps all laning phase and just take ithe has ~600hp lvl 1, 3 armor and if he hits you twice he gains another armor point, after that its 1 armor point every 2 autos and he gains 3 agility each auto he does to youi dont know a single hero that can man fight him outside of shit like tide but he shits on tide later and its not like tide is gonna free hit him when he has pounce and a strong dispel in lanesomething like death prophet maybe could work, but even then he can just pounce from your syphon to cut it shortand even then you are stuck with death prophet so if you dont win within 25 minutes you only become worse
>>556264026https://www.twitch.tv/kepa_mitaoh one of them is a tranny with voice changer
>>556260974DAWNBREAKS
dude what if we gave death ward fucking split shot because it wasn't broken enough lol
>>556264849It's still dogshit and witch doctor is a worthless hero, it honestly shouldn't be a channel at all.
>>556264926>witch doctor is a worthless heroIn what universe?
>>556264926take that staff and shove it up your ass you purple nigger
>>556265030This one, the only time he was playable was the brief moment when voodoo restoration also dealt damage to enemies, right now and for the majority of this game's existence he's been worthless dogshit unless he's played against literal retards.>>556265154t. literal retard
>>556264926WDniggers deserve the rope. I don't know a hero that can do so much with only so little.
*maledicts you*
>>556265267The hero does literally nothing regardless of how much it has.
>wd>goodDidn't know sub 1k mmr "people" posted here.
i just griefed a game because a teammate doubled down and i wanted him to lose out of spite because he was being annoyinghe tried to micromanage everything in the game, he literally kept telling everyone where they should be and what items they should buy the entire game until i muted him and started stealth griefingi went 3/10 which is damning but i think i hid the euthanasia pretty well, might get away with murder
dota is fun
>>556265637posted by 2k mmr probably hehe
>>556265721>he literally kept telling everyone where they should be and what items they should buy the entire game What's wrong with this? When I shot-call in Marvel Rivals I get tons of commends after the game.
>>556264302you're supposed to put the fear of god in him by just hitting whenever he tries to go near creeps because he also has to hurt himself with q to threaten you and you don't need to kill him just keep him pooranyone with nukes or sustained damage can do it, lc mars slar omni sk mag ns zooniggas seer etc
holy fucking shit im so tired of these inept fucking sidelane supports im going back to playing mid even though i lose more than i win
>>556265856GOOD POST
>>556266901he has the same mmr as all 4 of his teammates, his opinion is just as valuable as that of anyone else in the game
>>556252093I like how powerpoints exploded after like 2 videos because it's literally the only dota content on the internet that isn't>30 minute long replay with no commentary>3 minute guide reading hero ability descriptions>3 hour guide that's just a bored european watching replays from 3+ years ago
>>556268524Sooooo...? Whats wrong with shot calling when you're the same MMR? I don't get it
>>556266901
>>556267254man but how?i had games where i just try to do just that and he wins a 1v1night stalkers q is a terrible nuke until level 3all of the tanky initiators are also rather poor against him (alone)i feel like this requires a support that can actually nuke him down but outside of that he isnt really weak to anythingyou can fight many other pos 1 as a 3 but slark just feels like its a lose lose no matter what y ou do, and his kill potential is pretty good in lane
wait 10 minutes to find a game in the most common bracket in the most populated server projected match quality is: Questionable (1)someone declines lol!!!wait 10 minutes to find
>>556267254also, he does like 30 or 50% or his q damage to himself, thats like 20-70 health from 1-2-3-4 thats pretty much nothing
Grubby is complaining about Age of Empires 2 being unintuitive hehe what a noob!
Im sure rubick really fucking needs his free 60% magic resist but could the dev that loves this cocksucking hero fucking kill himself
>>556256929>dude, just make losing fun! 4headYou're retarded.
>>556270456this post really got my grub jigglin
>>556270969>yeah bro i fucking love losing all my mana even when im winning!speedrun cancer irl since it seems like something you'd enjoy
>>556252093I GOT SOME GOOD STUFFhttps://www.youtube.com/@420warriorexplorer
>>556271096>disabled by Break>doesn't pierce BKBCope. Seethe. Mald. Shitter.
>>556271264cancer?
>>556269668go play slark and see how you get fucked
>high five hand isn't the palico paw anymoreno...I haven't finished the event yet...my extension... where's my extension...
>>556271496Look, you got clapped by Anti-Fun who finished farming. It feels bad. You were helpless. Take a breath, this is a competitive game, you're not entitled to counter-play everything the opponent has. Making losing fun is physically impossible, and if you want to prove otherwise, you're sitting on a billion dollar idea.
>all of our lanes shitstomped>we were raped in midgame>enemy loses 1 rosh fight>proceed to lubricate their anusdenied cocky faggots doubled down mmr, never get cocky
>>556272475>shitstomped>10k advantage
>>556271795im not gonna spend 50 games to learn ins and out, i just want to know how to counter that hero
>>556272706You totally will, though. That's how you git gud at Doter.
>>556272706you wanna spend 50 games getting fucked by some mystery meat you have no clue how to approach instead
>>556252093I watch one NZ LoLfag learning DotA currently, he's somewhat entertaining even if he had a severe case of not reading at the beggining.
>>556273076>>556272903he isnt even picked that often anymore so its a waste, unless you want me to farm tokens by saying i always play pos 1 and get my behaviour score to 1 pointi want to git gud on my role not cosplay pos 1 and lose 90% of my games because i cant play pos 1
>>556272121uhkys
https://voca.ro/1a2d6A9db4SN 7 days after hear fart you will fart
>>556273330you'll be bitching about the next meta carry for the same reasons sooner or laterfinish that a-z hero challenge baybay
why am I getting fucking russian smurfs on the enemy team every other match when I only queue US serversdead dogshit game
>>556273569i havent bitched about any hero outside of slark in a long timei dont care if a hero is meta as long as i have ways to deal with it
>>556273330Pick a nuker with ground targetted spells. That's the secret. Slark has no health. AA, Sand King, Phoenix, Disruptor.
>bitching about slark>bitching about wdSure is low mmr in here
>>556267935yeah people are just too retarded for dota i fucking give up
>>556273874thank youbut why do people say he has no hp, he has average pos 1 hp
>>556274072my fucking nigger underlord gave w to rubikc 500 times i swear to god how hard is it to press w q
>>556273879>slark is a top tier carry pick right nowsure is fucking retarded in here
>>556274192None of the "average" agi carries have any HP, either. But a lot of them have mitigation. AM has magic resist. MK has lifesteal. Clinkz and Juggernaut have heals. PL has a dodge. Void's time walk is anti-burst.Slark has dicksquat. In fact, his self-dispel hurts him.
im getting tipped because my pos 4 is weaver
>>556274728it "hurts" him for 20 hp sclaing to 70 and by the time you got 4 points in it you dont really mind itdispel that has 10 ticks meaning you can dispel almost any cc/item in the game, i say 70 hp for a 6s cd Strong Dispel is pretty goodanyway, i got the answer so thanks
>>556274192it's more notable on him because he needs to manfight you for 5+ seconds to get anything done which is basically an eternity, he can't kite you or nuke you and he damages himself that's instany -90g for tangos if he starts fights that doesn't go his wayand it's not like he's good at killing anybody at 6 either he can't ramp up in a teamfight when 2 random nukes can end him
>>556274289>>556274072>found game on DotabuffBro, what the fuck am I watching? They won their lanes and then blew an 18k lead?
>>556275534wintrade lobbyspektrus is in the acc buyer wintrader pool
>>556275651Does wintrading have to be so dramatic?
>>556275651

>>556275651don't you have a job application to write?
>OW is dropping the 2 and adding a sequel worth of content to the game Dotards? When are you dropping the Reborn and going back to the roots? Even blizzard managed to realize it was a mistake and went back to fix their shitty game.
I CANT EVEN WIN AGAINST FUCKING BOTSI killed four of them, only bot left is Terrorblade and he kills all four of my AI teammates while I push a tower. What the fuck????? I just wanna play with real people already, this fucking sucks.
>>556276343they could add shartifacts and blunderlords to the client
>>556276454ok so play against real people
>>556276606But you guys said I need to learn more heroes
>>556275368not really, he gains 3 agi per auto, 9 agility early game is 3 armor and it doesnt take that much to hit 3 autos, especially with an agressive pos5
>>55627603915 years of you getting mad at other people on a videogameplaying day in day out and youre not even immortal draftjust a lost soul drifting amongst russian and middle eastern teenagers
>>556276896What heroes are you trying to learn?
>>556277069i have like maybe 100 ranked games since decemberfirst time in a year i've tried to gain mmr im +700 and im gonna keep climbingim around 8500 so you're not be able to dotabuff my games anymore obsessed fucking faggot
>>556274072You don't give up spektrus you will play 5000 more games because you're a sad fucking loser addict who gave up on life.
>>556277286you dont even get what im trying to tell you manmmr gain? climbing? what about your life pal. wake up
>>556277425>>556277329lol multidevicing obsessed faggotdamn i played my first 3 games of the week after i got home from worki must be truly addicted and lost in lifepoor me
>>556277272idk, I've just been clicking Random to try to find ones I like. I hate like 95% of the character designs in this damn game, everyone is so ugly and half of them are just warcraft 3 units
Disperser doesn't give movespeed vibes right now
>>556277568youre a working man getting mad at russian high schoolers for not playing like you expect them to. get a grip poor guy
>>556277739yeah im mad i have to play with 85 iq russian baboonsyou got me
>>556277686Read the skills of the heroes and try to find one that seems fun
>>556277829Non-Russians are baboons, too.
>>556277829you are thoroughly mindbroken
>>556277829uuhhh but russians are le based and good at the game though?? theres literally no reason to hate russians stop being russophobic
>>556258637If you hate farming then just play Turbo like every other ADD retard.
>>556276343>they're adding a big titty bitchhuh????
is there a patch or something why is there 750k online
>>556278638last couple days for the monster hunter event
>>556277829woah kotlguy
>>55627863860% of that is just bot accounts.
>>556274289UD has extremely long cast animations, unless Rubick is a parapeglic he will always steal pit. Same problem as Jakiro has.
>>556278638Alive game
>>556276343>for sure relaunch of overwatch 2 (1(2)) will work third time!
Why havent they hotfixed the primal beast refresher AoE thingdont tell me it's a feature
here's a hard to swallow pill for you dotards:there is atleast 1 scripter/cheater in every game
>>556279363They fixed most of the shit 2 had already and they are going even further. Its actually good now.
>>556279559It's a feature
>>556277032well that's your problem he can apparently hit you 3 times for free
>>556279082nah u can animation cancel no rubick unless they're scripting is getting a spell between that it goes for every hero, tide, es whatever
>>556279615totally for suredid they also remove the z axis heroes they added in 2?
>>556279613t. scripter/cheater
>>556279842>rubick that's not scripting
>>556276343valve only has the patent, copyright or trademark (whatever it is) for "dota 2"
>>556279817the problem is you hit him 3 times, he hits you 3 times, you hit him once more and he hits you twice in that time now, plus he has more armor now and steals regeneration if you have any
my rubick keeps stealing clinkz spells
>>556278638game has been hitting 800k+ since TI i believenot really anything new apart from some event (whether its curios or mh) always running
>>556280071See >>556271795
What are some heroes that you're always happy to have on your team?
reddit keeps talking about some mega event on feb 5 (according to some russian dataminer)any valve insiders got the scoop?
>>556280364>Dota>Updatesbro this game is a graveyard.Meanwhile other shit like shitlock and overtrash get bi monthly major updates, new heroes, features and shit.
>>556280101guy found the only rubick not scripting
>>556280263nah i dont think i willapparently hes weak to being bursted and hard ccd, both of which he can counter in a way so yeah
>tfw you're playing mid and not paying attention to the enemy heroes so you treat 3 heroes like supps
>>556279842Have you ever played Rubick? It really is not that hard to time steal at all, that's why the hero is good there are some heroes that just can't stop Rubick from stealing some broken spell.
I love playing dota with random people on the internetthank you volvathank you gayben
>>556281159If you're such a fungi to play with, why aren't people lining up to join your private custom lobbies?
>>556281561we don't talk about anon's island
this game is just the same thing over and over. why do people have thousands of hours on it
>>556282245this whiny doompost is just the same thing over and over. why do people make thousands of posts of it
>>556280517lmao cope
>>556282245
>>556282824My man, you are the one believing random "leaks" from russiansRemember when then chinese "leaked" that were would be remodels for all hero and a huge 2.0 update? lol of course you don't.
>>556283267To be fair, Valve is known to cancel updates and entire game releases out of spite for leaks.
>>556283615that makes them a fucking shit dev.I dont understand why people praise them so much, all their practices are blizzard-tier garbage. If you played Dota for a long time you'd realize it just has been a guinea pig for monetization experiments and features for their next project. A graveyard of abandoned features that you can still pay for mostly.
>Deadlock gets 5 new heroes>Overwatch gets 5 new heroesDotards????????

hey man we noticed that you went 20-0-46 in a 68 kill match, did the most damage and had 3000 gpmbut there was a witch doctor on your team and he pressed cask twice so we're giving mvp to him if thats okay
>>556284305>look in /owg/>hamster clone>pharah clone>genji clone>Hello Kitty collabYeah, no.Go back to your dead general.
>>556280901if you properly animation cancel the backswing of underlord w there is virtually no delay between w q bro just try it in demo
>>556284841>>Hello Kitty collablol that'd be pretty funn->its real

>>556284841Enjoy your updates.Oh wait.

>>556286115average pos 3 gameplay
>>556285791hololive
>>556286143I love being a brainless pos3
>"Offlane lifestealer">Just plays as a pos 1.lol, so much for winning.
>>556286143i think i was position 2? but everyone was just kind of waddling back-and-forth while the enemies were walking at us so i was like "Banzai!" and they all followed me
>>556285948would
your mom lets you have TWO carries?
oh my fucking god kill yourselves
>>556286826me on the leftenjoy your lost lane king
>>556278042The rate at which they are good at the game is about the same as any other ethnicity.
>>556286587yup, time to euthanize
>>556287406nigga is buying radiance like its 2024
>finally get a retarded 70+ minute game with leaversHuh. So that's what being fully slotted level 30 feels like.
xtreme gaming are kinda cooking this tournament
what are some good pos 5s that can scale decently well into late game/mid game like cm? also pos 4s
>>556289982Most of them nowadays. It was a monumental task, but IceFrog made every support scale.CM is actually one of the shittier ones. KotL, Visage, and Chen all fall off.Lion scales the hardest.
>>556290656Lion scales the hardest? cm with aghanims bkb and ghost does a pretty good job, same with lich aghs shard refresher
>>556286826my drip was too hard my swag was too different my bitch was too bad my style too tough so they had to send these fucking retards to lower my winrate
>>556289982Winter Wyvern with the stun on W talent goes kinda crazy and landing a good curse is always great since it scales based on the enemy team's damage
>>556291009Bro how the fuck do you lose offlane as Veng and Death Prophet, that shit is cancer to lane against.

>>556292525I mean even at lvl 1 Lion's single line stun has an actually wider way of hitting enemies than any other single line stunjust compare Nyx's stun vs Lion in demo mode, it looks like a line stun but it acts more like a cone already
>>556292806Because when you compare level 1 Lion to level 1 Nyx, one is food, and the ither isn't.

>>556299180chances of pulling of sick shit is small but it's nice to know they'll look out for you
>>556299180Duo laning is much better because you two can coordinate and play off of each other's quirks and strengths. It's not perfect though because it depends on the comp, and if they have different ideas of how to macro.Like I love ratting and split pushing and ganking to keep the enemy team oppressed. I will spend a lot of time smacking towers, and working towards smacking towers faster. One friend *HATES* split pushing, and pushing in general. He complains every time I use him and the rest of the team as a distraction to take a free rax. Laning is fine though. We generally stomp the lane together (even though we don't see eye to eye 100%). Laning solo vs with him is night and day.Don't know how a good 3+ stack is like. Haven't queued more than duo'ing.Also I obsessively make clips so sometimes I get to share clips from the collection with friends if they're in them, which is nice. Usually I keep them all to myself since I'm not trying to be a streamer or w/e.

>>556315256Compared to... previous Midas? I'm not feeling it. I thought the entire point of Midas was the ebin XP multiplier bonus on balling mids, like Invoker. But, if it's just gold?Mmm, Satanic-Mjol right clicker Invoker.
>>556315706Yeah compared to midas before, so it way faster to get value of it
>>556315358This is the same retarded "Methodical is totally better because I say so" argument. Learning Curve is shit, and always will be inferior to Fat Chance. Especially when Ogre will have 100+ STR by like 20:00 and thus, will have +6% multicast on every fucking cast. Being a useless melee creep doing nothing in lane for the first 2 minutes isn't actually better and I'm sick of shitters trying to justify it. Fuck you, you're the retard. And every fucking Ogre who picks Learning Curve.

Do you have brain damage? Learning Curve also reduces every talent requirement by 1 level, btw.
>>556316960You clearly weren't here for the past few years where HoNtrash were constantly arguing Methodical was "better" because it's "higher dps" and "higher winrate" when it was objectively inferior.
Is the game dead? All roles, EUW and 11min in queue now
>>556317253Did they have stats to back it up?Skill scaling in Doter means fun begins at level 3, and every Jakiro spamming level 1 Dual Breath to harass is a dumb rookie.Learning Curve means it begins at level 2 for Ogre, instead.
>>556314970It also lets you get a faster neutral. But... More or less I never feel enthused to grab it... Consider you get it maybe by minute 8, a minute or two before Phylactery, 4 or 5 before Mjoln, 7 or 8 before Bfury8 minutes before Bfury. A couple minutes shy of breaking even (when you sell the hand). You could more or less have the attack speed of a Glove for 10 minutes and get a slightly late Bfury otherwise (foregoing the incremental Pornucopia/+damage recipes parts).Or you could just spend the two minutes of gold on a Glove of Haste. Build it to treads like a normal person and enjoy the superiority of that.If you really enjoy the attack speed, however, it... Also only sets your timing for a Bfury back by about 1k gold, if you plan to hold onto it instead of sell it, and is then on a 100g per minute. So... How much is Bfury increasing your farm? If you get it three minutes late because of Midas, how many +~100g minutes do you need to offset that? 5 or more, maybe?So MAYBE, MAYBE it's worth on heroes like Faceless, Ursa or MAYBE on carries that you're 110% certain are going to be relegated to farming side camps in the jungle and otherwise get sat on- Scenarios where you're getting limited access to farm, no matter how fast you can farm it.(Herald 4 btw)
phylactery storm
Have you ever shit with so much force that it sprayed your ass and the entire throne in a 360 like a hippopotamus? I had opioid constipation and then I got chunky hot diarrhea. The pressure built up until it more or less exploded...What a predicament!
gayben got me...I bought the pass for the oroshi kirin and stygian zinogre lookin sets
I like Fat Chance more than Learning CurveBut it's undeniable that you're more taxing economically with the latter than the former is likely to turn your game around.Fat Chance will certainly grant you at least... An upgrade to a triple proc over a double proc, or so on, once or twice per game. But... Y'know the problem is really that you're getting a slightly better fireblast- MAYBE you oneshot a really unlucky support when you wouldn't have... Something like 1 in 10 times? You spread Ignite or Bloodlust to one extra person- Assuming they wouldn't have got it already (No value to multicast with only one target in range anyways)The real problem you feel, I think, are players who think Ogre doesn't have to have a physical presence in lane with his meat at level 1 because of Learning Curve. What Learning Curve really has over Fat Chance is a nearly immediate "Buy three extra stacks of tangoes or fucking perish" tax that has a permanent economy impact and a "Fuck you, we party NOW" phase at level 5, where you can start pelting them to fish for double fireblasts and getting Bloodlust VALOO at least three or four times before they can get their ults to swing back.Those two early legs up seem objectively superior to getting a couple quad casts (instead of triples) at 55 minutes.And yet, even knowing and believing in that explanationI dread a Learning Curve Ogre. I fear that he's going to stand behind the tower at level 1 while the enemy gleefully blocks our camps and denies every creep more than I fear a zero-impact facet
>>556319053you just have to be a meat shield? play aggro on em? lots of tangos?
>>556318713thx for funding wilds g sucker
>>556311274https://viewbots.comhttps://viewbotter.comhttps://www.theviewbot.com
>>556320512I like wilds
>>556319053Let's math it out:Ogre starts with 25 STR + 4.2 per level. So we we set up checkpoints at say, lv 6, 12, 18, 25, and 30, we would have STR values of:>46 / 69.1 / 101.9 / 139.3 / 160.3 STRwhich translates to:>+2.76% / +4.146% / +6.114% / +8.358% / +9.618%Base Multicast spread is: 25% / 45% / 15% / 15%In-game, Fat Chance Multicast is shown as: 75% / 30% / 15% which seems to just be (45+15+15)% / (15+15)% / 15% to match base Multicast. And then it adds the +% to all three tiers. Given the way it's represented, it seems like they add the +% purely to the 4x tier. So +5% becomes 20%/45%/15%/20%, and +10% becomes 15%/45%/15%/25% and so on.So base Multicast would have a damage multiplier of: 1x0.25 + 2x0.45 + 3x0.15 + 4x0.15 = 220% damage per spell cast at lv 18.Naked Fat Chance at lv 18 would have a damage multiplier of: 1x0.18886 + 2x0.45 + 3x0.15 + 4x.0.21114 = 238% damage.Overall we can represent the DPS value as: (2x0.45 + 3x0.15) + (0.25 - 0.0006p) + 4x(0.15 + 0.0006p) = 2.2 + 3x0.0006p = 220% + 0.18% per STRSo the difference in DPS is simply: +0.18% per STR. It's just an objective increase in spell damage for existing. That part's certain. The question is, is it worth it?Naked Ogre with only boots midas and maybe aghs would get +18% spell damage for existing, which is almost +10% more damage than base. This value can double if Ogre buys STR items instead of INT items like hex and shit. But he won't.Veil of Discord is 1,725 gold for +10% spell damage amp, and also amps teammate spells.Lina shard is 1,400 gold for +35% spell damage for herself.So the facet itself can be about +1.5k net worth purely from a damage perspective. Doesn't consider multi-hexes and shit.And then there's Midas:220% of +160 gold per cast is average +352 gold per cast.238% of +160 gold per cast is average +380.8 gold per cast.So that's +28 gold per cast every 90 seconds, so that's +19 gpm.So overall value, the facet gives you +1.5k + 19gpm for existing.
Largo 15 5W 10L 33.33%are pros retarded? why do they keep picking himis it some sort of circlejerk? they should WANT the other team to pick him not to pick it themselves
>>556327248>are pros retarded?The answer is always yes. Being more mechanically gifted than the majority doesn't mean they're better at theory. They're basically the gamer version of jocks.>why do they keep picking himReddit is convinced that the utility value of the reduced mana cost and other auras is worth losing a hero slot. Somehow the trade-off is worth it, etc.A speed aura bot is great in FPS games (e.g. Memewatch).It's not the best in a MOBA. HotS for example imported Lucio and then gave him a fuckton of barriers and healing and he's still meh at best because he barely does any damage. Largo is in the same boat.
>>556327094Excepting that that's the output for casting raw (unrefined) Fireblasts- The damage of Ignite isn't increased, whereas just grabbing a Kaya is a genuine 10% damage boost, as opposed to the somewhat shakier conditional spikes of an increase in average output from 220% to 238% (all randomly loaded into 1 of 20 Fireblast casts)I'm having trouble here, legitimately, imagining a hero that would prefer >"At level 18, one basic ability of your choice has a 5% chance to doublecast" (A strict upgrade over what Ogre actually gets, already having stacking multicast who is more likely to go from 2-3X to 4X)over>"Rank all 3 skills at level 2, take your ultimate at level 5, up to 3 points in one skill at level FOUR"God, how menacing. I can't imagine any other hero that wouldn't be a fucking nightmare.Imagine getting dogwalked at level 6 by a Zeus with rank 4 Chain Lightning Ogre himself turns Ignite from 280 damage to 400 damage at 6 with Learning facet- That's a REAL ultimate, nevermind the chance for it to spread to creep/neutrals or excess TP/Ganks to lane or the chance to extend fireblast
this is why ram is so expensive btw
>>556328562I think if you compare him to Ryze, the poster child of "Balanced for proplay" because of his team mobility spell- otherwise mediocre damage and immobile (aside from blowing Phase to be ungankgable mid).But the League map is a lot smaller and more... Corridor based. Rotating seconds ahead of the enemy team enables you to pin them into more unfavorable tactical positions or make noticeable efficiency gains in your macro play. Largo offers... playing a 4v5 for free smokes, clarities and tangoes?A vast oversimplification of course, but (especially with the nerf to global projection on echo) he's not exactly forgiving in his distribution of power- You've got to well time the movement speed to manage range, the damage buff for when you're sending outgoing attacks and spells. The Echo barely makes up for the fact that Largo himself does very little personal damage, Frogstomp is pretty low range. The dispel+displace seems rather nice but it's again feeling like you're stacking minor purchasable effects and that the edge you eke out is too narrow.But maybe if we let them cook a a few thousand more games on the frog they'll figure out how to execute and coordinate to get him to 50/50 in pro play and nerfed to a mere 40% in Herald

>>556328562None of this means Largo is bad, there are plenty of heroes that do fuckall damage and are still incredibly strong, like Treant. People just haven't figured out what drafts Largo fits into best but when he clicks he's quite strong.
What time does the Monster Hunter event end? UTC, EST, whatever give me a time with a time code I'll convert it I just wanna know.
>>556344925Just learn like 3-4 heroes for whatever role you want to play.
wish me luck guys!
The problem with Largo is that he needs his aghs + a lot of mana to be strong which requires taking up a core role but having one of your cores be solely utility with no damage is very hard to fit into a draft. He just needs a buff to his mana problems and he'd be able to be played as a support more easily.
>>556345453I mean, sure, but there's no babes. How am I supposed to expand my hero pool if there are no babes? 99% of the characters in this game are monsters or wrinkly old ladies, I hate it. I need more characters that look like Marci or Wei.
>>556345771>Marci or Weiyikes...
>>556345870What!! They're pretty! And they're so versatile; I could dress them up in almost anything (or nothing at all) and they'd still look good. Especially Wei, she is surprisingly girly.
>>556336028It's shit, the damage on Phylactery is negligible when you could just be buying an Armlet and critting for more instead, and the slow is wasted on Chaos Bolt. The only thing it really gives you is the mana regen which is not worth the cost.It works on a hero like PL because he actually has sustain problems and the damage and slow stacking with lance is broken. CK benefits from none of that.

Is commending an opponent considered toxic?
>>556369073noits a sign of good sportsmanship especially if you allow them to commend first
Face it, this game is fucking dead. Everyone gets update but you, dotards.
If I ran Dota, every hero would be an anime girl and Dota the MOBA would be a sister component to a girl collector gacha game.Boom, 50 million monthly players.
>>556369405dota's update is barely 2 weeks old
>>556369530That would be Iran Dota yeah
>>556369530>wanting to share the game with 50million fellow coomer bugmennty
>>556369530Gachatroons can't play games with actual gameplay, your idea wouldn't work.
>>556369723right, because you have such deep appreciation for the current crop of dota players
>>556369546>minor number tweaks>update
>>556369790id rather have them over coomers any day of the week
>>556369876>nooo it doesnt count cause i said socope
Crownfall 2 soon bros!Doomposters seething lol!
>wowee, Doom has +1 armor, thanks for the major update, Valve. You are so based. meanwhile other games get 5 new heroes dropped and major engine and hud changes. lol.
Is this nigger actually glazing OVERWATCH
>>556370265>reee this game in open beta is getting more contant than my decade old gamego play dedcuck then fag
>>556369782isn't that exactly what the trend is rn with genshin and genshinlikes
>>556370417overwatch is 10 years old
>>556370321I mean it was already obvious that he's a shill figures he might as well tell us straight up
>>556370502overwatch didnt get an update
>>556370635ok
>>556370635It got a major overhaul announced just yesterdaythey are basically remaking the entire game.
>blizzard fans in the big 26
I'm halfway from the sets, turbo or normal for faster materials?
>>556370683>>556370710ow (formerly ow2) isnt 10 years old now is it
>>556370710because it's so shit it basically needs to be remade
>>5563707832016 game of the year
>>556370865yesan entirely different game than the one receiving the patch, no?
>>556370930not reallyits a live service game like dota 2
>>556370930You talk as if Dota wasn't completely raped beyond recognition and its completely the same as it was 10 years ago.
>>556371103when did dota2 get rebranded as dota?
>>556367216are you, by any chance, below 2k?
>>556371132what is your opinion on current techies?
>>556371526Retarded and BROOL-core but nowhere near as cancerous as OG Techies. Absolutely nobody liked playing against it or with him. thats why it got removed.
>/d2g/ talking about OverwatchMy opinion on this topic is that DotA 2 triggers my social anxiety HARD to the point that I can only bring myself to play one match a week, if that. Meanwhile Overwatch 2, I don't know what it is with that game, but it feels so "safe". I can spam 30 matches back-to-back without experiencing my usual symptoms like the intense self-consiousness, the fear of bad plays, and the rumination that comes after a DotA match where I think about "that one teamfight where I used my spell wrong". In Overwatch I can just make mistake after mistake and my Reinhart will look at me and say "Danke!". Meanwhile in DotA there's a revision of my behaviour every 15 matches and I get to see exactly how much everyone hated playing with me in numerical form.
I'm not reading that shit
>>556371758kys redditor
>>556371873probably because in overwatch you get banned for every daring to think about saying a nono wordmeanwhile in dota the mentally ill autists call you a retarded nigger faggot every 2 seconds
>updates ruined dota>also fuck dota for not updating morewhat causes this
>>556371873Because in OW if you are good enough Tank or DPS you can 100% Carry by yourself.Whereas you can't in dota unless you play a cheese script hero like meepo or arc warden.
>everyone who disagrees with me is redditepin!
about to ruin some russians game in 2k mm :3
>>556372326holy based
>>556372141I want valve to rectify their shit changes like the OW team is doing and going back to what was good.Not add more stupid shit on top.
>>556372141Doomtrannies aren't very intelligent
>>556372442and add more non binary womxn of color?
>>556372502?????????
>>556372442>back to what is good >by introducing new heroeslmao
>>556372442The game is better than ever.
>>556372765>Getting more content and better designed content is bad.You are probably the same guy who thinks minor letter patches are content.
>>556372925so much for going back to what was already good
>>556372983Lets talk about what is dota doing. Oh wait, they are aren't doing shit because this shitty game is dead since Valve is working on Deadlock now.
>>556373270>Lets talk about what is dota doingrunning 2 hat events concurrently while releasing gameplay updatesdota2 is fine
>>556373270>two concurrent events>new hero>new event coming soonyeah the game is so dead just play Activision-Blizzard's hit game Overwatch instead...
dota could go without a single patch for 3 years and it'd still be better than all the other dogshit on the market
>>556373424>events>its just regular dota with some sprinkles on top.>gameplay update>Item nobody ever buys in pubs can be disassembled now.Wow.
>>556373647i think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what dota is supposed to be. this is typical for spillover players from league but you should understand that your expectations are stupid and likely to be met with pushback and mockery
>>556373484>New event coming soon?????????They haven't hinted at anything (why would they, its valve we are speaking of) unless you are talking about some random leak from reddit that has 0 evidence behind it.
>>556373647>i need events that arent dota to play dotanice cope
>>556373757>>556373784They don't even update or even try to fix any of the shit they implemented over the years.Im positive that out of the 72gb the game takes up, only 40% is the actual game+hats, rest is abandoned features.
>>556374189>new copethey just released a bug fixing patch
>>556369530This but nude Ephey hero too
List of Abandoned/Broken Dota 2 Features:>Unit Query Panel / Enemy Inspect>Ranked Roles>Dota+ as a whole>Guilds>MVP System>Arcade games, (Remember Overthrow or 10v10?)>Battle Cups>Annual Ranked Season >Overwatch System>Report system>Behavior Score System>Tutorials>Weather/Maps/Announcer Packs >Yearly Battle PassI'm sure there are more that I'm forgetting right now,All of these haven't been updated in literal years or are barely maintained. Hero Progression still has tons of uncompletable quests due to reworks, but hey we get some fucking stickers nobody cares about and have very little purpose or implementation in the game, lmao.
>>556375486I would ask you what is Abandoned/Broken about several of the things you listed, but I doubt you care enough to explain.
>>556375486oh no not a bunch of features that having nothing to do with gameplay!
>>556375689He's coping.
I hate this game so god damn much.
>>556375486
>>556375689You don't play the game enough if you need explanation for all of that.
>>556376136But how come?!? Wha happun?
>>556376450>you cant expect me to explain why i think these features are abandoned/broken you got to do that for yourselfas expected you are posting in bad faith
>my pos 5 tps mid for no reason after i die to something i didnt see coming but 100% dead>he feeds the enemy mid another kill after 10 sec>his pos 1 dies because he tpd mid>he now walks it down mid and goes afk for 20 minthanks for this extremely low skill acc buyer valve
>>556376545>posting in bad faithTotal opposite, retard, I care too much about this game.
>>556376778yet youre too lazy/incompetent to explain about those features
>>556376957If you actually played, you would 100% know by now.You are the one posting in bad faith.
>>556377106you can nou me as much as you wantits your burden
>>556377106Keep coping.
unit query is still there if you want to enable itbad faith confirmed
>>556377723Its bugged to fuck because they added so much stupid shit its pointless, enemy heroes have so much shit on them its practically impossible to glance. >Talents>Facets>Neutrals>Backpack items.
Remember Kez?
Marci lovin'! Marci pickin'!
>>556377950>it doesnt work cause i said so
>>556377106>>556378916It literally doesn't work anymore, faggot.Disabling or enabling the option does nothing. The hero info should appear in the right side without replacing your main HUD
>>556379172only 13 more items to explain
>>556371873No one is stopping their bunny hopping in Overwatch to type at youYou're still selling that motherfucker and wasting all your abilities in the worst wayIt's just that nobody can take time to educate you on how badly you've just ruined their experience without realizing itThe danke was sarcastic
>Unit Query Panel / Enemy InspectBroken >>556379172>Ranked RolesIts just normal ranked with labels, it hasn't been modified or updated in the slightest, people can still pick whatever the hell they want even if they hard support. (because le everything can work right?) Just play Normal Ranked or Unranked, its the same shit. >Dota+ as a wholeShard store hasn't been updated in years, Dota plus guides are worthless and most of the time the automatic "AI" guide fucks out and gives you stupid recommendations or doesnt at all. Stats are free on Open Dota / Stratz>GuildsNo incentives to do anything with them other than to pick up welfare 500 shards every week. "rewards" are basically guaranteed if you join any guild with more than 5 people. No point past that.>MVP SystemThe game has no system to detect if you make any play or actually had real impact, It will mostly just detect who got the most kills or made the most stuns. >Arcade games, (Remember Overthrow or 10v10?)Valve hasn't made any custom games since 10v10 or incentivized people to revisit arcade by releasing older events as playable game modes.>Battle CupsLiterally the same as they were in day 1, the only thing they added was a Shard reward when dota+ dropped. Could've been an excellent addition with exclusive tournament hats or that you can only get by winning or anything to incentivize competitiveness in a competitive game. Could've been extended into ranked with some creativity.>Annual Ranked Season They added the medals and completely forgot about it. Rank has stagnated incredibly hard without any sort of reset, and its gotten worse with the double down, MMR inflation is real and basically ruined any worth medals had. You can be immortal and still be a fucking dogshit player. lets not even talk about the god awful drafting system in immortal.
>>556380414>The danke was sarcasticNo it wasn't, I got 4 commends after that match which means he had to have commended me. Whatever. Doesn't matter.
>>556380647see you arent incompetentyou just needed to be goaded into fulfilling your burden like a bitch would
>Overwatch SystemSame as it was day 1, You can't even tell if the faggot you acted upon got punished or not. You get 0 incentive to make good judgement calls. not even welfare shards.>Report systemLiterally broken, I reported multiple obvious people griefing my matches and none of them ever got punished, or even got a notification they were sent an Overwatch case.>Behavior Score SystemWorked the first week, then Quinn cried he got banned for being a toxic fuck, then it was made worthless. Reporting people does nothing.>TutorialsBugged to fuck, tons of graphical glitches, last time I saw projectile disjoint tutorial was bugged because of Tinker reworked, doesn't get updated to teach dota. >Weather/Maps/Announcer Packs Abandoned by valve, there was this post of the mod of the system shock/Nightdive subreddit reached out to the shodan voice actress to make a pack, paid her to do all the voices, reached valve and literally got told "We don't do those anymore" >Yearly Battle PassAbandoned as mentioned in that one fateful blog post during the 10th year anniversary.
>>556380647>>556381220tl:dr>these features don't work as i want them to therefore they are broken
>>556380796And yet you have the gall to call others out for posting in bad faith, fucking retard.No wonder you game and your general is fucking dead.
>>556381426if i didnt accuse you of posting in bad faith you wouldnt have done anythingyou made an explanation to spite me, you lazy piece of shitgo kill yourself
>the game is dead because... IT JUST IS
>>556381543You are too predictable.
>>556381913bark for me dog
Fun fact: The last ranked season update was in 2020.We are technically still in Season 5.

>>556303748I watched the matumba interview from a month ago and since him and jerax are both finns the only conclusion I can draw is that jerax yearns for a boring office job even though he has millions, as a way to just spend his time. At least thats what matumba was going for

>>556385528member when you could blink with it? that's my guess why going going up assholes to use the active
>>556385726no the active range is just fucking abysmal being 150pretty sure nearly every melee hero has a longer range than that

>>556394439>Valve sharted the bed with Artifact before Naga, Wind, Mireska or Ench could get artI'll never forgive them.
>>556389287What fucking event.
>>556394750Dark willow has Artifact art tho.So does Enchantress.and im sure Windrunner does tho.Never seen naga tho.
>>556394443just pick aa and suffocate him out of lane
>>556394912Wait, they do? I remember not seeing any at launch.
>>556394443>constantly have to think about my position NO, YOU HAVE TO DO CONSTANTLY -THINK- ABOUT YOUR POSITION? WTF BAWWWWWWWW
I am sorry but i might be retarded.Can someone explain to me like im retarded how the fuck does Monkey Kings passive/stack thingy works?Why does he suddenly tripple his damage with insane life steal and gains like 20% of range (or is his range jus that long).I read the spells but i dont get it still, it doesnt get used until you attack or something like i cant figure it out holy fuck me.What is the general rule when fighting him, hit twice and run away or what?
>>556395060how does it counter him if im squishy and he can just hook me when i step badly once>>556395147go on retard, you know that i mean how it works with his hook and positioning between creeps when they constantly move, no other hero in lane requires you to put that much effort into looking out for each step and being scared to go and check wtf is going on at the hard camp
>>556395157When he attacks you he puts a counter on you. If that counter reaches 4, he gets 4 attacks with bonus damage and lifesteal. If he starts putting stacks on you, you should retreat and wait until they expire, if he gets the 4 upgraded attacks he can use them on anyone, not just the one that he farmed them from>and gains like 20% of range (or is his range jus that long).his BMC is that long all the time
>>556395157When he hits an enemy hero it puts a debuff on them.If he hits them 4 times while the debuff is active he gets a buff that gives lifesteal and a damage boost.> gains like 20% of range (or is his range jus that long).Monkey just innately has slightly higher attack range than other melee heroes.>What is the general rule when fighting him, hit twice and run away or what?Don't let him get 4 hits or disable and kill him before he can use the lifesteal.
>>556395310Playing ring around the roses in lane really isnt that hard
>>556395446Also bonus fact, his stun counts as one hit required to get the bonus attacks. So if he gets 3 counters on you, he will instantly cast Boundless Strike on you, get the 4 buffed lifesteal attacks, and rape your stunned asshole.
>>556395115
>>556395606>>556395446>>556395758Holy shit so thats how it works, he puts a debuff on ENEMIES.I was always so confused how i check his buffs, he doesnt have it but then attacks me once and gets it, and sometimes i feel like he should get it in next auto but attack me 3 times and i kill him before he gets it.Does he have to stack 4 on the same target and it resets when he swaps a target or every enemy hero can have stacks at the same time? (So when he attacks me 3 times and then my ally then i reset to 0 stacks but my ally has 1 now, or do i keep my 3 and my ally has 1 too)Thank you.
>>556395950>Does he have to stack 4 on the same target yes>and it resets when he swaps a targetno>or every enemy hero can have stacks at the same time?yes
>>556395310>>556394443> and positioning between creeps when they constantly moveIt's really not hard. Just prioritize buying boots if you're laning against him.>and being scared to go and check wtf is going on at the hard campThis is just not true at all, there are so many heroes that are way more threatening when you try to contest a pull than fucking Pudge.>wardDon't just put them in the middle of the jungle like an idiot, you can put them in the lane where it's easier to protect them and still get good vision. You don't need constant vision of Pudge at all times you just need to know where he isn't.
>>556394912
>>556395950>I was always so confused how i check his buffs, he doesnt have it but then attacks me once and gets itYou never noticed the giant numbers that appear above your head when he hits you? Are you stupid?
>>556395838>>556396196Thanks anon, I'll search for them
Dota has never been the same since 7.00
>>556396748this is true between every version actually
>>556396090what pos 5 can contest Pudge level 1-4?im not saying its hard, im saying it requires much more conscious effort to deal with it, yeah, you get used to it but i dont have 5k hours in the game, im at like 300 (with 30% of it most likely not spent playing) and pudge is so often banned that i dont see him this often thankfullyi usually ward behind enemies from the side of their tower and somewhere in my jungle close to my tower so he cannot just walk up and kill it that easly but having to go and contest his pull or block his camp is exhausting, ill try to ward more from outside my tower to see location where hes going, thanks
is chen any good in pubs this patch
>>556396416Yes and Yes. For some reason i always thought the number is above his head.Also, why is it so hard to see him when hes on a tree, when a Night Stalker is flying between trees, you notice him much easier. You basically have to walk up to Monkey Kings tree to even see that hes on it.

>Boot up deadlock>GPU at maximum usage>Boot up Dota>GPU Sits at 40% at most.>still less FPS than Deadlock.Fix your fucking shit, Valve.

will he suff from the monster hunter event go on sale on the steam market? how much do you think the immortals from the crafting will cost
>>556397879it is uncapped.
>>556396827>what pos 5 can contest Pudge level 1-4?Tree, Tusk, Ogre, Veno, Lich, Jakiro, Warlock, etc.Pudge is really not strong until he starts building up stacks, he can really only kill you if he hooks you under tower or into his teammate or something otherwise most supports will beat him in a straight up fight. So just don't get hooked.
>>556398196thats bad for your 'puter anon!cap it to your refresh rate+1 or use vsync if you can stomach it
>>556398246how does a squishy hero like warlock or lich or jakiro contest him, i can understand tusk or treant protector or even ogre/veno but squishy hero gets hooked and dies 1v1 or runs away scared, you basically have to dodge the hook everytime
>>556398686as opposed to getting hooked on purpose?
>>556399670what?thats not really an answer to what i asked but if im playing a tidehunter pudge can go ahead and hook me into his team so i ravage them all and win the fight
>>556399670you can cheat and get an early blade mail, think about it dotards
>you can cast spells on heroes affected by BKBwtf

i am watching this arteezy guy on twitch the third game now i think and he is everygame in a terrible mood, flaming his teammates like everything they do is just the worst possible choice, constantly throwing a tantrum that he wont come to fights if hes teammate doesnt do somethingjust now he stood afk as a pos 1 weaver while being way aheadwhat a miserable existenceit surprises me that people like that just arent banned by now

**********ORIGINAL THOUGHT**********i think it would be cool if trees didnt grow back after they were destroyed, it would give mass tree destruction heroes a niche and be cool to see where fights happened later in the game as well as create interesting new farming routes
>>556424025timbersaw hands typed this post
>>556424025REMEMBER TREE CUTTING BATTLE PASS GOALS
>>556424127you caught me but that doesnt make me wrongwc3 had a mission where you had to buy goblin shredders and go find things trapped out in the trees and that was one of the funnest missions so it would be cool if dota did that
>>556424127This would be a massive nerf for Timber, you'd run out of convenient trees to chain to very quickly.
>>556416569Bluelock
>>556420954never pull before lotus (2:30 and 5:30 waves) matter of fact tell your core to push the lane as far as possible so that the enemy lane has to farm it near or under their tower, giving you resource advantageharass with autoattacks constantly, if you stay behind youre core you're ruining his game. if you have a harass spell use it but autoattacks are more important, try to get as many licks inconstantly buy resources for you and your core, tangoes, clarity, blood grenades. winning the lane is about having a sustenance advantage. dont come out to the lane with boots and a grenade or null talisman and 3 tangoes. for pulling timing im sure theres a guide online for the exact timer to do so, also learn to half pull so your core and you don't get dove under your toweryou can zone the enemy lane by just running at them and harassing with spell and autoattacks. honestly play the meta supports and you're fine also. dont go around picking the likes of bane and oracle if you can play jakiro, shadow shaman, disruptor or treant
>>556424025>i think it would be cool if [treant protector disappeared]sure fuck it
Why do lane creeps ignore the troll summoner skeletons?

>>556419449Deadlock is more toxic than dota honestly
>>556426180Are you being attacked within range of your creeps agro by them? You can't just pull them into them, they need to draw agro by attacking you.
>>556429183not reallyI'd say the amount of third worlders playing dota is far more poisonous than any amount of rudeness you might encounter in deadlock
enjoyed a game as aa with a shard where we were siegeing the enemy base (slowly because they had a sniper and techies) and i went way back to the lotus pool and fired nukes every 40s until i hit enough people at once for my pos 3 to blink in and snatch someone
marcibros wtf...
>>556429183i have niggas on all mute cant stand NA deadlock players pausing min 0 saying lame ass jokes not playing to win the list can go on

>>556444104see you tomorrow, mason
I'm the same age as aui and hsven't won TI a single time
waaaah I'm retarded and did nothing to help my carry and in fact tried my hardest to hold him back but it's his fault for not carrying us waaaaaah
I'm loving Jakiro and Lion. The amount of hard CC just FUCK over the enemy carries that don't buy bkb and straight up turn the tide of battle even if I die after dumping all the spells
>>556434705Fun fact, if you try to save someone who is drowning, and they grab onto you, the correct response is to push them away and let them drown!
>>556447865this guy was drowning in a kiddie pool and with his last dying breath slammed a loose floor tile against my head
>>556446104this never happens i only rape my lane to death and cause the enemy team to dwell upon me exclusively for 30 minutes while my 4/0/1 carry goes jungle for 40 minutes and the enemy team realizes that they're up one guy so they just ball at us

my clinkz is 3-15 this game fucking sucks
>>556405483Put in the effort, and you're already faster to rank up than every griefer/token farming tard.Also, is Bounty Hunter an offlane or soft support?
Just a concept you should know. I thought my Void was owning, and he kinda was but the asshole was poor as fuck just running at heroes, had we lost one teamfight after I got online we would had lost 100%. This was a 35 minute game.This is like 9 out of 10 reasons you lose games you are winning after a bad fight, you cant recover nethworth wise. If the guy had been farming camps between fights he would be two times stronger and the game way less throwable.Know when to farm while being aggressive and pushing your advantage, anything else is griefing.
>>556454309>Bounty Hunter an offlane or soft support?Grief position, dont pick him.
>>556455209Yeah, I want to grief the enemy by picking Bounty and taking all their gold with skills and items.
>>556455278He cant lane for shit, you are playing a cheesy all in hero.
>>556425264My favorite genre is my support pulling min 3 after I been controlling the lane under tower and getting dove by Tusk Axe then getting my timer pinged
I'm only at 6k mmr now bros...

>>556456060QoP with a hairdo?
>>556456418correct. why did she copy lina's hair color and style? lol
after one (1) game i think the timbersaw facet that ISNT the second chakram might be more correctit doesnt cost any mana and slows them good and makes chain do more damage, while the second chakram has a really long cd and will probably miss
Marci Marci Marci! I made her out of clay! Marci Marci Marci! As Marci I shall play!
>>556456952It depends entirely on how many other tree choppers are in the game.Phoenix, Beastmaster, Earth Spirit and others are notorious woodcutters. I know you like to LARP, but Timber is comically useless without trees. Twisted Chakram at least gives you something.
I HECKIN LOVE BROOOOOLIN!EVERY GAME BEING AURA ITEMS AND 5-MAN IN 10MIN IS SO MUCH FUUUUUUN!
>Exort facet Invo>highest pick rate among the 3>lowest winrate>Wex face Invo>highest winrate>lower pick rateHmmm
>>556458930everyone thinks they are ferrario430 with invoker and they arent. even at higher mmr just pick the easier build and delete everyone's mana. its not as flash or cool but its easier and more effective to contribute with quas wex
>>556459296It sounds like it would work fantastic, if you got a Tide on your team. Or some other kind of set up. Even Naga.
sex with hoodwink
>>556458458>I know you like to LARP, but Timber is comically useless without treesthe original post was not larp and i know timber would be much less fun without trees, i just think dota 2 x the lorax would be a fun change for a bit

>>5564629458679518673there was like 10 minutes of this game where he gave up and hid in base and the side jungle but then he got over his tantrum and started hitting people again
>>556463275REAL
>>556462945TA is a legit carry who usually needs lots of farm to come online, so what's so weird about them winning a long game?
>>556463225I got Meepo done in 3 wins. All teammates, and they were obviously not smurfs because of how much they bumbled around and fucked things up but it's okay I ran interference for them and helped them carry.I had to play Tinker myself though because any time I got a Tinker, it was on the enemy team. Smurf or no smurf, my teammates were too retarded to help deal with him even though I did my best to keep him oppressed so it was like 6 games 6 losses, and I didn't see one until I was done the rest of the atlas. Then immediately after, I got like 3 games of Tinker on the enemy team and stomped them. Fucking Tinker, man.>>556431768Be the Marcibro you want to see.

>>556328948I understand that you are putting a lot of value on Ogre getting an earlier powerspike, which isn't bad, but I don't think it's the end-all-be-all that you make it out to be. You are sacrificing your lv 1 laning, and then frontloading everything into this early game success gamble. I daresay it's a matter of personal preference. If this was LoL, I wouldn't disagree because games end at laning stage. Win lane, enemy team calls for 15 mins surrender. But this is Dota and the game hasn't even hit the halfway point yet. Winning lane gives you an advantage in winning game later but it's nowhere close to a guarantee, otherwise nobody would ever pick lategame heroes. Every draft would be some mage-centric brool comp instead of fat STR deathballs, or AGI carries in general, since early game is all that matters.Also, it's +5% 2x chance at lv 6, but the +% modifier gets applied to the highest tier at every level up of the ult, which also in turn reduces the chance of a spell being 1x. So I think having that extra +6%-+10% 4x Multicast chance is pretty huge. You go from 4x'ing someone 1 out of 7 times on average (15%), to 1 out of 5 (15%+5%) to 1 out of 4 (15%+10%). That's basically just one cycle of spell casting, and doesn't count items. Lower chance of a cast being 1x also means casting utility items that aren't midas will have much more value in fights.I think if you treat Ogre Magi as some sort of early game only caster hero who becomes irrelevant lategame, sure Learning Curve would be better in your eyes. But if you want Ogre to stay useful after 15 mins, then surely Fat Chance is the better longterm choice.
smurfing to skip past the awful low BS crab bucket was the best choice I ever made for my sanity

jakiro is a nigger hero
used to be at 3k BSmade a new account now at 11500 BScan say confidently there is zero difference between them in player quality, only difference is matchmaking speedsame amount of griefers/feeders/role abusers
>>556496081I mean it's just a quick tell. His 4 teammates grouped up and had to fend on their own while our trench warfare child soldier played PvE until he had all the items he wanted
>>556496081>>556496268It's even more of a tell looking at the heatmap for each hero movement jugg just came in to end the game while his team was proactively roaming and shutting the enemy team down. sure that's a won game but what happens in the eventuality that your 4 teammates can't be as effective in making space for you? It's easy to complain about your other cores being poor when they have to spend the game running around on your behalf
>>556496185BS system is completely broken.Same as the report system.
>>556496081consider playing more lane dominating heroes that can join fightswr, muerta, slark, sfcould also be a bad idea if you're actually winning games with afk farm 6-5 score
>>556496185absolutely false
>>556496724OK!
What do I do with these now.
>>556495423you were rightclockwerk crying about largo mid the whole match despite showing my 6 streak prediction at the start
>>556498731how do you get to 15 without aghs? its what makes the hero work with the 15 talent
>>556499540i get aghs after sange and kaya since aghs is too mana hungry, its pointless to get it early if im going to run out of mana in 5 seconds
>>556455362Bounty is perfectly fine in lane, just drag waves?
Marci is perfectly fine in marriage, just wife her?
>>556495939Ignore my 20k building damage and second highest damage against heroes.
>>556496652Tide was running with the team and also farming camps
>>556499839sange doesn't really add anythingyou could've bought arcanes or soul ringaghs is needed to proc the talent if you dont have it by lvl 15 dont bother at all
>>556497318absolutely cope
>>556500867That's what I'm saying though, coming to close in on the game is the least you couldve done
>>556498092Exchange for sticker capsules
WHY DOES SPECTRE DO SO MUCH FUCKING DAMAGEWHY DID YOU CHANGE A LATE GAME CARRY INTO ANYTPOINTINTHTEFUCKINGGAMECARRY YOU FUCKING NIGGERS
>>556502745LMAO what the fuck is going on here did he just afk for 10 min on brown
>>556503094oh nvm thats not networth
>>556501132largo gets a lot of focus since he is hard to ignore him, so the tankiness from sange helps soak the damage away from the coresi dont play largo mid to be the damage dealer i play it as an utility heroif you got higher winrate or are immortal then il try getting aghs before level 15 to test your build
dota player are probably the most retarded people on this god forsaken planet.

i dont think im made to play pos 3absolutely love that you can bully people and that you can initiate but everytime i go for a fight i die, even if my team wipes their entire party and we go 1 for 5, it makes me frustrated that im dead again and again for itlike man, let me get some kills and live to tell the tale, not stare at a grey screenmaybe i am retarded for playing night stalker but i just love that hero, kinda sucks that nobody in my team is the initiator pretty much everi all the squishy heroes in my team and i have to go in and jump the supports then die and we win a fight because the enemies just jumped on me and used all their shit
>>556508932>>theyre completely dysfunctional, pinging each other constantly and and feeding/breaking itemswhy the heck were they queued together, then....

peru is definitely worse than russia so im taking extreme measures
