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.
>>556513519Cope doomshitter.
didn't ask
>level 9 lycan with 2 spirit wolves inside him and armlet has just shy of 3k hpwho at valve do i blame for this
during the duration of the entire eventI've never seen anyone pick ET or Terrorblade.

after 6 games of dogshit teammates i get a good team and i throw and lose i'm fucking done i uninstalled this game is shit
>>556523302>i get a good team and i throwUmm, why?
>>556523384because i fucking suck that's why
>>556523485Well, gosh.
Dota is a bully free zone! Be nice!
>I play a snowball core>I go mid>I win lane>I win game>I pick any other position>game is a dice roll because everybody else will feed and I have diminished solo carry potentialI just want to play another position but playing sidelanes is infuriating given you have an unknown quantity with you

you should be able to auto-reject wide skill range games
>>556533823Your dota+?
>>556534143you can't auto-reject retard
im legit in some garbage shadowpooli had like 75% winrate before this too i wonder what caused it
>>556534967It was me sorry
>>556534967You're the only constant
>>556534967yup53% wr june to december40% in januarydropped half of my mmr growth in that 6 months time frame
>>556535576thats for surei had like 20 kills and my team legit goes like 1-10-1 im not sure what to do in these situations playing 3v1 mid and still winning the lane and getting kills then my supports come mid and die for some reason instead of winnign sidelanesits the most frustrating experience ever
>>556535965looool the matchmaking just wants you to lose a little bit to even things out
>>556513519Go back to your dead general, blizzdrone.
>>556534967Same here. I got a bunch of MMR very quickly and then my queues started taking 15+ minutes out of nowhere and my game quality has gone to absolute shit. I literally had 2 griefers on my team in my last game and they announced they were going to grief during the pick phase (guess they had an argument in the previous game).I thought the game had put me in the smurf pool because I was winning too much but that's not true.I AM getting matched with a lot of smurfs (level 40 accounts in low Immortal such as pic related) but they're just straight up griefers. I have no idea what happened but I'm just gonna keep on playing and if the games continue to be this shit I'm probably quitting again.
Rare game where it's opponent's lane that gets tilted as fuck and, after a clutch 2-0 at lvl 2, we proceed to chain 6 or 8 kills on their pos1 & 5It's weird to get a godlike as pos4 skywrath.
how is it that the enemy maelstrom/mjolnir always perfectly counters my butterfly whereas my maelstrom/mjolnir never procs even a single time against an enemy with a butterfly (who proceeds to dodge 2/3 of my attacks)
>>556538351i had an enemy tb die like 3-4 times in lane then buy armlet and ulti his alliesincredible once in a lifetime experience because they almost turned it and probably would have won if he played

I finished the hero atlas yesterday and got an award for it so I blew 50 bucks on universal materials to finish off the sets I'm not going to use without looking if there was a reward for doing that.there wasn't.
>>556542498Must be nice, what's your secret?
>>556543491The trick is to go to sleep when you need to not when you want to
I'm too ascarded to play ranked
>queue for all five roles>get offlane yet again>pick dawnbreaker and win
>>556544746
>>556544512I'm pretty sure I've lost this reflex
you look ravaged
What do I do with this? The capsule will never be marketable right?
>>556544746I only get mid or hard support when I queue all roles now
yuptime for my one last quick match before the event ends to run for 90 minutes and fuck my plans up
bloodseeker is possibly the stupidest moba character I've ever seen
LET ME DELETE THESE RETARDED EVENT STICKERS VALVEI don't want this shit cluttering my inventory
>>556550337actually our retard lc mid hard lost lane to ww and lost us the game off the snowball and we got stomped in 35 minutesvery fun!very cool!I love loser's queue!
Could someone explain to me why my pos 5s start going for every lasthit after the first wave and then everyone pings me for being behind and getting killed by missing item timingsthis happens like, most games
>>556549860Craft some stickers. Pretty much it, yeah.
>>556554105he's shoving the wave to secure the lotus
welp finished with everything except for any of the pig variantsout of 80 sticker capsules I got 0 golds and 0 waterniggers
>>556554502for the entire game?
>>556554291>Craft some stickersI got no interest in them unless I can sell them for a couple of cents.
Why do they describe the Tormentor locations as chasms, they're raised areas
>>556557975The chasm is below the floating cube
>>556558046That's a pit or a hole
>>556558204Which is also what a chasm is. Also Chasm sounds way cooler than "The Tormentor will spawn at the top hole".
>losing>finally finish my Nullifier>run up to an enemy support and smack them with it>watch them pop glimmer euls aeon disk and get denied>delete them>delete the other support>repeat a couple times, farm up a casual Bloodthorn to oppress them harder>eventually the supports give up and hit me with the euls instead so they can run away and die 2 seconds later to the Bloodthorn active>enemy team never recoversI live for this. The ability to definitively tell a support to get fucked instead of constantly cucking me. Once I finish the Nullifier the game fundamentally changes. It becomes a game about efficiently killing every single person and tower on the map while they can do nothing about it except watch. I understand now. Nothing else matters. This is my new calling.
valve is once again buffering my abilities to troll me
I played a couple of times years ago and basically dc'd from all of them which tanked my behavior score down to like 2000 and it is taking an insane amount of time to get back up just for leaving like 5 games

I played Enchantress and I lost
>>556569424theres always next time!
>all the people in the Steam discussion forums complaining about missing the MonHun eventI thought you guys were jokinggggg about all the stuff you say about this game's playerssss. They are actually dumbbbbb
>>556569424I dont understand this image
>>556572924A little deer humour
today I will play enchantress mid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p40-NA2ji1oStill the best.
>>556569424how dare you treat my wife like that
>>556563237When they took away the Necrobook.
I'm only gonna pick heroes that can solo tormentor
I don't understand why some people really hate it when I play clock offlane.Doesn't matter if I win my lane, if I'm really active all game, gank everywhere, initiate and tank every team fight, CC and deal the most damage the game.It was MY fault we lost because I picked clock offlane
>>556576732are you taking chainmeal?
>won a game we had no business winning Feels good. Then I lost a game where my qop 5 went naked dagon, then hard carried another game. I am climbing, just gotta win the hard games, not throw the easy ones and don't tilt on the unwinnables.
>>556576865Nope, the expanded cog one.
>>556576732Because you are a shitty scaler core with no wave clear or objective taking that doesn't help team fights go easier sans stunning one target.
>>556576732Post replay
Why is pos3 a priority role, and not pos4?
>>556578651Because support players are a dime a dozen?
>>556578651Because everyone thinks 4 is fake HC so people have an excuse to pick np and build damage items without getting blamed.
>>556578651Because offlane is a utility/support role that has to know how to farm and read the gamestate. It doesn't have the flashy impact of a midlaner and actually has to do shit on the map so considering all those prerequisites most people would rather practice self lobotomizing by picking some retarded stunbot that gets everything for free or a carry that doesn't have to actually play the game for 25 minutes.Midlaners are all psychos and either dodge or euthanize if they don't get mid so that's pretty self explanatory.
>it's a your offlane and mid can't ever engage first so you have to buy a dagger as a support to start fights episode0 initiations from sand king, only waiting for a fight to start to ult + blink0 towers pushed by our mid dp farming the jungle for 4 minutesbut we still won because me and the other support got fed up and bought daggers to make these passive fucks fight
>>556578651Because 3 is just awful to play as this patch>boring small pool of heroes>needs to win lane to shut down enemy hc, while your support griefs you>needs to farm to buy items, also buy aura support because the 4 is a core role apparently>needs to rotate and start fights>needs to stay alive during those fightsit's 2nd behind with mid where if they fail, they lose the gamehc can recover from a bad lane, offlane can't because they're expected to play with the team after laning
>>556576732I enjoy playing clock and he is pretty strong during the laning phase and mid game if you get fed.But he is useless late game.Also the recent change to how his cogs interact with people hurt him quite a bit.
>>556583619They changed cogs?
>>556583727if you catch someone on the inside of the ring on activation it no longer immediately hits themenemies get teleported into the middle of the cogs now
>>556583727You ask that like they don't change cogs every two patches.
yep high skill
how do people lose lane on razor this patch its supposed to be the easy hero right
>>556589334winning on razor is never ezthe hero cant hit towers for shit especially if you build utility (inb4 his aghs kills buildings!!!)its slow as shit too
>>556589241>le epic unkillable purple nigger of low cooldown pure damage and infinity mobilitynice hero dotards
>>556588189You're right, I do because they don't, last time it changed was with facets and that's coming up to 2 years now
>>556589620LANELANEread retard
>small undocumented update three days in a rowPatch is coming
>>556589742>easy hero>wins lane>loses gameuh huh
>>556589782you are officially illiterate, congrats
>>556589923>if you dont comment specifically on what i wrote that means you dont understand it!!!im trying to extend the conversation here retard
>>556589742>screenshot of a level 15 razor with 2 items>but the lane anon, the laneYou are conflicted anon.
ah yes, the level 15 hero doing poorly in the laning phase
sniper tips?
>>556590270he has basically on itemsgreaves is 4k gold nowadaysyou cant lose lane on razor unless you're a retard
>>556589334>how do people lose lane on razorHe's not great in lanes, his only nuke eat through his mana pool, his attack animation is really fucking bad, and he's not yet tanky enough to get the best use of his abilities, not fast enough to keep static link up.He's great after itemization, but before that, he's probably one of the worse of his category.
>>556591037Don't do the meme khanda build
>>556591037khanda aghs
>>556592164bad bait or bad player?
>>556593724He's right though, razor is literal trash
>>556593915yep definitely not the most picked hero rn
>>556593958Maybe in low mmr he's good, in high mmr he's trash.
>>556594061yep definitely not the most picked hero rn
razor has received nothing but buffs for the last yearits his time
zapped your ass
>>556594215>esportsIrrelevant to real dota.
>>556594501keep digging the hole
>>556594543Keep coping, secondary.
>>556594543I just won another match as Meepo the Geomancer. When will the haters learn?? There's dirt between my toes.
>>556593724Probably bad player, but that's my experience every time I picked razor. If things go really well my nuke can net a couple of kills, but i'm never walking out with great creep kill/deny count. More often than not, I end up eating shit and salvaging what I can by not feeding, and it's only once the 3-on-3 fights begin that I'm having a positive impact.
>play tusk mid>win lane (as always)>get fed>go around one shotting enemy supports>enemy supports rage buying back>getting immediately one shot againI love tusk mid, when you win your lane you can just snowball the game so easily
>>5565910374200 gold for a 1 second stun
>>556593724it's the autist blogging about how he's bad with one of the strongest laner in the game. ice path lvl 1 on jakiro energy
>>556596649>razor>strong laner
>>556596481I always go for one punch builds, regardless of the scenario. Play the OPM opening at the background and you're good to go
>>556596804Any other build is a sin.If you aren't making the enemy squishies regret every deciding to play today by instantly sending them back to the respawn screen whenever they get within blinking distance of you, you're playing him wrong.
>enemy abandons after stomping them too hard
>enemy team picks five melees into Lich Viper Warlock>it's a slaughterfest and we win 50-10That was kinda disgusting nglI was initially worried our squishy line-up wouldn't do well after laning but man, was I wrong.
the right tool for the right fool
Right dick for the right umm...
could someone tell me what a standard generic right click carry build looks like in dotai feel like i never do any damage buying the items the shop tells me and every item that isn't daedalus just looks like a big mishmash of stats
>universal materials doesn't countBOOOOOO
Is picking Anti Mage into Medusa really just an automatic draft screen win go next?
>>556604658dusa can still win if her team enables a 20min hg push
>>556605024I'll take that as a yes
Imma scrub, 550~ hours played, dont play ranked. Im gonna try hard a bit. I like carry, im picking 3 hero's to spam for it. I have jugg, sven so I can bring a stun and ta. Does ta count as ranged? She's my most played non melee carry but I am semi Interested in weaver as well, if I need more range to bully melee in lane. Otherwise I will only play qop, axe and shadow shaman in the other roles.
>>556593724Razor's lane matchups are extremely sink or swim. If you're laning against like Lifestealer or Sven then of course you just roll over them but the current meta carries are things like Clinkz and Drow who you just can't threaten at all.
if you're standing next to a cute girl like quinn is rn is it polite to to cover your dick
>>556605371>Does ta count as rangedYesPick clinkz or drow
>>556604658If Dusa is being played as carry yes. If you pivot her into offlane it can work.
>be tiny>blink on enemy drow and throw them into the middle of my team>team just fucking sits there slackjawed and lets her run away despite just landing on their headsthe level of incompetence I have to deal with
>>556606679display your boner with pride
>>556603843There's no such thing, Dota builds and heroes are very diverse and builds can vary a lot from game to game. Just look at protracker for whatever hero you want to play to get an idea of what items are good on them.
>>556603843phase boots>farm item>bkb>damage item
>>556607962is helm of the dominator a farm item?
>make 1 boar with beast>make one more boar>group them both individually into two separate control groups>one boar dies, I make another one>this boar instead of being grouped in the individual control group I selected, is grouped with the 2nd boar????
>>556606890just lost this game because everybody except me constantly ignored the drow nuking the entire team despite being sat in the middle of the teamfight most of the time and the earthshaker being a huge pussyboi that threw the game on at least three occasions because he was ran away at half HP at critical points in fightswhat a fucking dogshit team that was
My 1 month and a half return to Dota is now officially over. The game has become a cesspool and there's literally only heavily mentally ill people left playing it. Everyone who's even slightly normal has left and all that's left is the people who are obsessed with the game and treat it like it's life or death (mostly because they don't have anything else in their lives) and people who are addicted. Nobody plays the game because they enjoy it.It's a shame because the game is still good after all this time but I guess its very own nature attracts this type of person and this was the only possible outcome.
>>556609441rose tinted glassesgame is the same as it ever was
>>556609585Completely wrong. You literally cannot find a game with less than 5 russians in it nowadays, it wasn't this bad before. They're the main perpetrators of this type of behavior and completely killed my interest in continuing to play the game. I'm literally 4 wins away from getting Immortal again and I don't give a fuck about it, that's when I realized that's it for me.
>>556610056rose tinted glasseswas always like that
>>556608671>he was ran away at half HPmy K/D brooo
>>556558204BRO THAT THING COULD BE INFINITELY DEEPITS FUCKING MAGIC
>>556576732CLOCK IS A "WEAK" OFFLANER. CENTAUR IS A "STRONG" OFFLANER. YOU CANNOT ALWAYS PICK CLOCK INTO MOST LINEUPS (AS YOU CAN PICK CENTAUR INTO ALMOST ANY LINEUP) BECAUSE HE IS A "SOFTER" OFFLANER. YOU PICKING HIM EVERYGAME IS VERY DETRIMENTAL AS YOU USUALLY WILL BE WORKING UPHILL AGAINST SHIT LIKE INSTAGIBBING YOU PAS, JUG OMNIING YOU, ETC.
Does anyone feel like there's a slight stutter on razor between the moment the lightning projectile of the auto attack touches the creep and the actual death of the creep? I swear its the only ranged hero it does this with, it kinda messes up the last hitting in the early levels
>>556589334STATIC LINK IS ONE OF THE STRONGEST, IF NOT THE STRONGEST ABILITY, ESPEICALLY NOW THAT YOU CAN ATTACK AND MOVE. ITS -LITERALLY- WHAT MAKES HIM A SEMI CARRY. YOU HARDLY TALKED ABOUT IT JUST LIKE>>556592164 SO I DOUBT YOU KNOW RAZOR
>>556591037SHRAPNEL SCATTERSHOT AND HEADSHOT IS VERY GOOD. YOU CAN EASILY KILL MOST HEROES IF THEY ARE RANGE IF YOU HAVE 3 SHRAPNELS. ITS VERY EZ TO WIN WITH THIS HERO IF YOU ARE PROACTIVE. JUST MAKE SURE TO BUILD DAMAGE AND NOT SOME NIGGER PUSSY SHIT WITH NO DAMAGE. GET TWO DAEDELUS' IF YOU REALLY WANT TO.
>>556611884bro just walk away lmao
Honestly I've been picking Razor pos1 forever and having a blast but it gets dicey against burst line ups since you have to run in every time

>>556612305>I CONSIDER THAT IT ZAPS THEM OR SOMETHING SO THE ZAP ALSO HAS ITS OWN PSEUDOANIMATIONSOUNDthat's probably it. theres a light stutter in between the moment a unit gets zapped and its death
>>556608559Spawning 2nd boar jsut completley messes up both of my control groups, but it doesn't get rid of them, 1 and 2 just become "select both boars" for some reason.Tf is this shit?
>>556613009You summoned the third boar

>>556613423No, the 2nd boar fucks it up.

Anons, I've been enjoying playing a FULL healer support - greaves, locket, skills. Any other healing items I could get to make it even more cancerous?
>>556616482vessel is also a good oneuntil this patch people underestimated how good greaves and heal supports were. add in a solar crest to buff your carry and a force staff to bail him out and youre golden impact wise

Anyone lose all their dota friends? Used to play with dozens of people from 2013-2016 and now I realize everyone moved on with their lives.
>clear waves/farm on my own>people group as 2 to come kill me whenever they want>try to group with our one fed player>enemy groups as 5 to kill us because no one else is doing anythingWHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DOTHIS SHIT IS EXACTLY LIKE LEAGUE, THE GAME IS OVER AT FIRST FUCKING BLOOD
>>556618413I've been playing this game for two months and all the people I've added to my Steam friendslist on this game do. Not. Talk. At. All. You fuckers don't respond to any of my Steam chat messages! No small wonder that you guys have no friends, anto-social creatures that you are.

imagine being too fucking scared and shy to accept a friend invite in a video game from someone when you cant even see them or hear them holy shit this has to be a bait
>>556621648tons of people with low self-esteem, no need to bash em
>>556621903low self esteem? youve got to be retarded to not accept a friend invite from someone you never met, there is no esteem to be had, they know nothing about you, they cant see you or hear yourlike, this is some self inflicted shit and i dont even pity people like thatand dont even come at me with "wyell, but they myight bye myean :c"

How much is deadlock leeching from dota 2? I heard icefrog is making heroes for it. Is Valve planning to replace dota with deadlock?I haven't played dota in over a year and I was thinking about playing some, but I'm wondering if I should give deadlock a try.
>>556622895about tree fiddy
>>556622895They are replacing TF2 with it
>>556622557there is literally only one (1) dota content creator nowadays.
>>556623098tf2 just got a new official mod
>>556622895Deadlock is basically Dota + TF2>Characters that rival the merc cast but more leaning towards fantasy like Dota.>Item builds like dota, has gold, last hitting, runes, roshan, jungling, almost all the core mechanics are there in some way.>3 lanes + roshan pit set up>logo was literally the map before it got changed from 4 to 3 lanes (just like dota>Overcomplicated movement tech like arena shooter fags love (this will end up killing the game)>Heroes are mostly a mishmash of dota 2 abilties thrown together.They don't even know who they want to impress. to me, they will just end up with a modest 50k players and tons of non-player fans because of the character designs, who just keep posting about who is gay or who is fucking who. because that's all the deadlock discussion i've seen as nobody really likes the turbo sweat going because casual players get stomped.

>play side lane>support is utterly useless>sitting way behind me as melee carry>not using any spells>not warding>not blocking camps>not pulling>not attacking enemy laners>essentially sat afk>proceeds to relentlessly feed enemy team all game>with two other hard feeders>even though I get some plays off and get a few kills it doesnt matter because I had three hard feeders chain feeding the whole enemy team a bucket of goldI'm so tired of this shit
>>556626724Boring patch, only core roles matter so no one wants to watch
>>556627737the core roles this patch being pos1, pos2 and pos4
>>556627950Pos 4 is almost as irrelevant as pos 3, only pos 1 and 2 matter
2 days ago I played an ember game where my supports actually did their fucking jobs and the game was actually pretty amazing, I hadn't played a game like that in a long time. They actually built mana boots and gave me mana constantly, they used their skills correctly and didn't take my runes once the laning phase was over, by the end of the game I had 22 kills as fucking EMBER, one of the most useless carries in the entire game. It really makes me wonder how some people manage to lose games where they have supports that aren't completely fucking braindead mongoloids, I legitimately had not played a game like that in over a year if not even more.
>>556627420SAAAAAAAAAAAR
>>556628112My problem is most of the supports I get are mongoloids. They will just sit afk behind you and do absolutely nothing or they will feed the enemy.Flip side is if I go support the core will ignore every play I make as if they were allergic to getting kills and will never take and advantage of anything I do.
>>556628642>most of the supports I get are mongoloidsYou're so close to realizing the truth of this playerbase, anon...
Have you ever played on adderal or vyvanse?
>>556628747The only truth is that mid is the best lane to play because you don't have to worry about 50% of your lanes power being fucking inept.You win or lose lane on your merit alone.I regret it every time I go sidelanes.
>>556629090Oh, you don't have to tell me, I've got less than 50 games and I've already figured that out :U
>>556629090for the longest time I avoided going mid because I thought I wasn't good enough and it was too hard, turns out because I'm not legitimately retarded with some type of clear mental disability, I win mid the majority of the time. The only issue I have is when my teammates feed every other lane but provided they don't, then we are able to win the game. Mid is actually not even as difficult as I imagined it to be and it is the perfect position if you're not completely trash and feed the lane, the impact on the game you are able to have is much larger than any other lane. Mid players generally are autistic and have some very obnoxious attitudes most of the time, though.

>>556626724I'm sorry but>Esports in 2026?"""Competitive games""" in current day are populated by glassy eyed golems that have been glued to their computer screens 18 hours a day since they were 9 years old.And yet somehow they are worse than the players of the golden age in the early 2010sEvery single esport in the world is dead or dying. Shadows of their former selves.What is even the point?
i pick mid aa i kinda do nothing but damage ngl i feed the shit out of LC who will NEVER duel anyone that isnt me i win the game
>>556633709>What is even the point?Bets. Gambling. Cash! Moolah! Dollar bills, baby!
>>556633709>glassy eyed golems that have been glued to their computer screens 18 hours a day since they were 9 years old.you're describing cool people its mostly that its just really fucking boring and adding more gallons of gambling addiction company enema money cant fix that
>mfw I'm the one who has to buy silver edge on magnus because none of the other dipshits who would make better use of a break item are building one against the EXTREMELY fed bristleback who has about an 8 level advantage and a divine rapierincredible really

>>556633925>you're describing cool peopleIn what way are these digital vat-babies cool?They are basically subhuman entities with zero personality or flair that don't exist outside of the dota 2 map + whatever floor mattress they sleep onThe esports world hasn't spawned a single organic meme or quotable moment in like 10 years because all the human players retired and were replaced by these biological gambling golem bots.The competitive scene is boring BECAUSE the players are boring.Hell, it's kinda the case even in irl sports these days

>>556641501I thought about it honestly but the game I'm thinking of I got focused pretty hard during teamfights so I probably wouldn't have been able to get it off anyway.
after a few games, the witch blade build of aa might just be better than phylactery, the +300 bad touch range talent at 10 is kinda insane it lets you tap someone on the nuts with your witch blade from so far awayhaving ice vortex maxed at level 7 just gives you good gpm too im enjoying it

********** ORIGINAL THOUGHT **********there should be counterplay to the scan buttonmaybe an item from a new objective that creates a tent under which scan doesnt work and maybe vision is obscured from outside the tent, so everyone in the tent can see outside but no one outside can see in kind of like mars's yellow facet
>>556644864You do have time. If you don't, and have less than 3k hp, that's a skill issue.
>>556644904smoke 2 could be hidden from scan
this is the most hilarious match fixing ever. supposedly his happened:>bet against your team>team is winning>disconnect for 30 minutes>team still winning>reconnect but don't actually play only so team can't use your hero>team still wins in 92 minutes so you still lose the bet while ruining your career and any potential to matchfix again
>>556645265hope he enjoys working in russian burgerking or whatever

>>556652565He's a solo mid ganker. Are you ganking?
>>556652634He's a ricing pos 1 carry. Are you living under a rock?
>>556653984Nope. He's just played that way often. TA and SF can also be in the safe lane. Doesn't change the fact they're solo mids.
>>556654090Mid TA has been shit for a long time, she's only played as 1 nowadays.
>>556654090Pos 1 SF has never been good. Only Chinese throwers play him as pos 1.
>>556654551>muh pro scene mufuga
>>556654664>heroes are defined by the role they had 10 years agoTA mid is dead, get with the times. Sometimes heroes change roles.
>>556654923Facts do not care about your feelings. And "TA's skillset doesn't carry that late, so it's better for them to peak early" is a fact. Bloodseeker's skillset is also that of a ganker, not a brainless right-clicker.
>>556655180It's not 2015 anymore, mid isn't even the gank lane nowadays.
I was playing with a "girl" for around three months and "she" just confided to me that it's a male to female and uses a voice changer. What the fuck guys, I'm sick and feel like I'm gonna die. We spent hours talking every day and playing for MONTHS. and it's a FUICKINFG MAN.
there are no girls playing dota not even fake girls or girl pretenders
>>556655416t. got reported for griefing... repeatedly

yeah haha funny experiment but can we have the small map back now
>>556656142no, i must farm
>>556656142ok but we'd have to lower the average hero base speed by like 50

Damn.First time getting a Meepo mid smurf'd.

>>556661083Ursa is a bear, the creeps are hellbears. They may not be the same creature, like how Java and JavaScript aren't too similarthey don't appear to be the same creature. Centaur looks different from the camp centaurs but he looks closer to them than Ursa does the Hellbears
>>556661083>>556661526Ursa is a ursine, Spirit Bear is a bear, Centaur is also different from the jungle centaurs as he doesn't recognise them as his own species and they appear more monstrous

>>556689456we won that game but only because i started screaming the n word and pinging like a schizophrenic and saying very unokay things like rape
>pick Bounty support>mostly just stand behind my offlaner>enemy keeps hugging their tower>sentries everywhere>five levels below them, but they still use ults on me solo>they even pick up a gem>35k gold advantage by 35 minutesI sure do love "supporting". Not sure what I've done to upset them, though. *snort*
>>556689578how did that help you win?
>>556690417it woke up the sleepy dota players from their chain queue highway hypnosis and reminded them of things they really love like rape and things they hate like womenseeing a passionate dota player (me) is like a fresh cup of coffee on a cold winter morning, preparing them to play actively to win instead of passively to be dealt their fate or whatever
>>556691907umm...oh..
>>556690230I always wonder how much gold is used for detection when i play shit like bounty hunterI got a game once where i wa 6 0 1 within the firs 7 minutes of the game and at around 10 minutes i couldnt walk anywhere without being seen by a sentry and 4 of the enemies had dust, lmao
>>556692805You can literally see how much was bought in the scoreboard...
gonna tell my kids about the times in dota where you were able to sneak roshan without him blowing a rape whistle that disarms your entire team for 20 seconds if you're the team that killed him first
>first game of day>bot lane hard feeding>mid lane hard feeding>only one on the team doing remotely well>still doesnt matter because the other retards fed so many kills the enemy just doesnt careI am beset on all sides by the ineptitude of the average dotard
>yet another blatant techies scripterits always a techies
>QoP of Pain offlane is actually not a meme anymore>It's fun to play, she's actually tanky, in your face and annoying as hellHoly shit I might just come back to spam her in ranked (I'm archon maybe crusader due to decay). Kind of want to try to "tryhard" ranked for once and focus on 3 heroes. My best offlaner is by far Timbersaw but I need someone not susceptible to silence because that makes 2. I'm thinking Broodmother out of spite if I see a Skywrath p5 + bad waveclear p4 on first phase but maybe that's too cheesy/niche idk. I really like playing Marci and Dawnbreaker but maybe a more well rounded offlaner like Tide, Sandking or Axe would be better. I'm welcoming your suggestions if you have any dotards.
>>556676728Because I'm assuming that i'll whiff it anyway, and the other one makes an impact during laning phase.
>it's another episode of (((support))) going afk and you're forced to firstpick as 3 and later he picks omni to euthanize my match
I missed the last 10 years of patchnotes, why is jungling not a valid strategy anymore, even for NP?Subsidiary question: why the fuck do people pick NP pos1? The only skill that helps in that role is a soft that won't do shit against 90% of other cores due to forcestaff, BF, blink, jumps, etc.
>>556696057Weaver in all positions
GG mr powerpoints.
>>556696057he literally falls off past minut 20 and her laning is absolutely awful what is blud talking about
>>556697129In the old days, jungling was huge money and huge exp. One loser could buy a Quelling Blade and some tangoes at 0:00 and come out of the jungle with ult at the same time as a solo mid laner. Since lanes back then were more 3-1-1 with two supports on a trilane, if one of the supports became a core for FREE, then suddenly you come out ahead.But if a source of money and exp was that good early game, it would be that good late game. And that meant the Chinese would just farm farm farm like they're playing League of Legends and nobody fucking likes that. When they kept setting new records for longest pro game with 100+ minute matches in TI2 and TI3 (see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G9O9j0DSII (faggy auto dub warning, change to original kr audio track)), people said ENOUGH. Those fuckers would do nothing but farm for 10+ minutes just to wait for Roshan and buy a fresh BKB before even thinking about having a teamfight. Thus started the anti-Chinese jungling nerfs. BKB was no longer refreshable, jungle gold and exp got nerfed, and kill gold got increased. Also other tertiary things got nerfed too like illusion heroes getting the shaft, Lycan getting reworked and nerfed like 5 times in a row (after the TI1 and TI2 nerfs), and Necrobook got removed for unrelated reasons. And since that wasn't enough to stop the autists and the Chinese, the jungle also didn't spawn shit until 1:00 after the bell to force people into lanes. Even if you try to do the leech for a minute and leave strat, the neutral camps just didn't give enough exp or gold for it to be worth it. So even today with a bigger map and 4 extra camps, jungling gpm is still lower than it used to be.Thus, no more jungling.Of course, the Chinese became briefly based by going hard in the other direction with TI4 memepush but Icefrog sadly put a kibosh on that.>why the fuck do people pick NP pos1?TI2024 Grand Finals champion, 3-0.

Kind of an upsetting thought. The shit I did to fuck the guy in the ass and make his jungle unplayable also affected the rest of his team beyond the usual eternal 4v5 disadvantage. And mentally, I was thinking of it as a "pulling out all the stops" occasion and that made me wonder if I'm just holding myself back because I'm not hateful enough to play like that every game. And honestly, it's stressful as fuck. If I want to win more, I might have to change my whole playstyle so I can play like that without having my bp spike to 200 the whole time. Or maybe it's not worth it? I don't know.How "angry" are you guys when you play, even when stomping?
I come back to Dota and Fleeting Fury is gone. I have literally never been so pissed off.
>>556717763lmao ok fleeting fury more like seething furry keep seething:)
>>556712875yes
>>556714405both these heroes blow if they get ran atneither can disengage and if you kite outside the range of their limited spells they
What determines a hero's name vs title privileges?
>>556718249Whatever is easier or snappier to say
>>556718398Arc Warden is not snappier than Zet
>>556715182nvm apparently 1 pl is enough for my shit support to shit their pants and stop playing
>>55671881915 years playing this game still unranked immortal spamming the meta heroes like an automaton
>>556718819im just gonna delete this game atpthere's no way i can do more than i did these games

>>556718918Why didn't you just end?
You guys would have a lot more fun if you stopped taking this game so seriously>>556719334It's funny he had to exclusively use League clips because there are no dota streamers with a personality
>>556716891Actually applying yourself and trying hard to win will unironically increase your winrate by double digits, it's just really mentally exhausting. Best skill you can pick up is knowing when a game is actually impossible so you can mentally check out and not burn out, while doing just enough to be able to come back and try if the enemy fucks up.
Why play ranked?
>>556719623people overextending, trust me i tried also i dont know why people still pick clinkz its like a 40% wintrate hero atm dies to any carryv 1cc1
>>556720441I'm a pioneer, I'm an explorerI'm a human, and I'm comingI'm animated, I'm alive, my heart's bigIt's got hot blood, going through it fastI like to fight tooI like to eat I like to have childrenI'm hereI've got a life forceThis is a human, this is what we look likeThis is what we act likeThis what everybody was like before us.This is what I am, I'm a throwback.

another crazy bad carry but rubick is too good with axes and spear
>>556722674carried by your offlane+4
>>556722674Carried by the enemy pos 4
can someone please explain to me when shadow shaman's single massive serpent ward facet is ever useful
>>556712915thanks, I was currently doing that when the event closed
>>556726815it did a billion damage and doesnt die as easilygot nerfed though, you could solo rosh with it before
>>556718819That shit upsetting desu fuck cancer lancer im guessing the pudge and jakiro weren’t really doing shit to stop him cause they’re the only answers on your tea for it and maybe your facet
How do I make friends on this game
>>556726815every time you kill a small snake the damage from your ulti goes down by a bitif u have big snake the damage stays until the big snake dies
>>556727243in general extremely bad positioning for no reason i honestly assume they're all acc buyers because there's no way anyone with iq above 85 walks this way after taking bot barracks
I'm still on the NA hopium
>>556717763And the best part is, they didn't give Marci any compensation buffs!>one facet is picked 80% of the time>one facet is picked 15% of the time>one facet is picked 5% of the timeInstead of buffing the other two facets, they removed the one that was good. Valve fucking hates Marci for some reason.
>>556728186Could be worse, clock has 3 facets and 1 is picked over 99% of the times. They've yet not even tried to balance that shit.Like what the fuck is the point of adding facets if they are just going to ignore it?
>>556719334>Guyse dota 2 = heroin>Why are you getting upset?>Wake up sheepleThis guy is the perfect example of dunning-krueger
>>556729330he started playing dota again, according to the comment section
Was crownfall the latest arcana release? will we ever see a new one
>>556719334>dude if you don't play Dota 2 you can be productive or TRAVEL THE WORLD xD
>>556513519they hated him because he spoke the truth.
>>556732480but like whats his point though
>>556720653https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vbPoyiTErk
>>556732663how would I know.
>>556732931I dunno, you might have like, a degree in some literature something-or-other that lets you see hidden meanings.
>tfw some dude calls a hero by his dota 1 name, like naix or bara
>>556733269Those are still the names of Lifestealer and Spirit Breaker.
>>556733269you don't, bwo?
>>556733269100% some peruvian children who just follows what his peruvian dota tiktoker says. Nobody who plays this game seriously does that. its just the need for some non-existant "oldfag" cred.
XP FACET15 MINNO FUCKING ULTIHOW AM I IN THE SAME GAME AS THIS FUCKING NIGLET
>>556734481ofc its peru
how is valve putting 4 peruvians on my team
>>556734581peru caca
>>556734481He will keep queing and wont get punishedi n the slightest, enjoy your epic report system.
>jakiro lane loses>warlock lane losesif these people cant win against pudge marci supports i dont know anymore100% valve put me in some nigger queue with animals only these people are worse than my ancient friends legit they've got nothing in their brains
>>556736424>marci supportPUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH
>>556736424>he expects Jakiro to win against a melee supportlollmaoWatch less pro games.
>>556736424>heroes lose to heroes that are stronger???
not even gonna reply to this autist if you go 0-4-0 on lane where your only job is to press fatal bonds and heal your carry you're fucking retarded
>>556736864Yeah, losing with Warlock has way less excuse than Jakiro.
Jakiro is actually trash this patch.
>>556737152His Attack speed debuffs means the enemy can't trade hits with the carry well. That requires a carry that can trade in the first place.If you're babysitting a non-presence, like Spec, into, god forbid, a high armor melee like Nighstalker or Chaos Knight, you WILL have a miserable time, and WILL lose.
>>556700605Nta but i used to get it. You're brain is si used to a game that you start thinking in that process. Like you'll walk into the kitchen and think fuck what time is it i need to check rosh pit or get the next set of neutrals.
my supports always grief me when i pick antimage... what are some carries i can learn that don't make my supports wanna give up immediately?
>>556738249Luna. The smurf favourite.
>>556738298what else? u guys flamed me for having a small hero pool..
>>556737915the fact that you think you're supposed to use liquid fire tells me everything i need to know
>>556738249Jugg
a case of wcyd
>>556739274 where do you check this?
>>556739605stratz
>>556739274gg mid didnt ganki think when my dota 2 ranked career was on its last legs, i would only play mid, and if my sidelines lost catastrophically i would just give up and farm jungle (until maybe a hg fight if i felt like trying at that point). it just didnt seem worth the effort to try if my teammates were already playing the blame game and going full retard after 12 minutes
>>556739274you can pick a better hero
>>556734481it is not against the rules to be bad at the game
>>556741612he didn't say it was
>>556741612uhhh that cant be true, every game i play with a ranked mode has teams asking to report whoever was on the losing team
