Buff Hoodwink
FUCKING FINALLYNO MORE R*SSHITS IN MY GAMES
>>557605848None.
>>557605956WRONG ANSWER
>be grubby >grub
does avalanche still deal double damage against units being tossed? the alt-hover info toolbox doesnt say it anymore
>>557607371That was a bug and they fixed it :)
>>557605451source?
>>557608091They have meaty futacocks, not girlcocks.
>>557607371They took it away a few months ago.The reason was because of two reasons:- Tiny did a fuckton of damage with Khanda- Tiny's facet added a fuckton of unintended extra damage to Toss- Tiny's pick/winrate in pro games shot upSo first came the Khanda nerfs (not just because of Tiny), then they fixed the facet bug and took away the Q+W combo at the same time. Now Tiny is just a shitty caster and "carry".
wait, people still play dota 2 in 2026? holy stockholm syndrome.how are those russian teammates treating ya
>>557608380he was still the most played hero at blast>inb4 win rate3 of 4 games played in the grand final
Okay they need to balance Invoker's facets a bit better because cataclysm is oppressiveWe need global emp and ice wall
clinkz never getting nerfed until his next rework because only chinks play him in pro claim your free mmr
Lol this nigga topson played deadlock for 2 games before calling it quits dont blame him tho
>>557610253>i could be playing dota instead of this garbage
what if you could eat rapiers
why do torrent and gush damage morphling
>>557610721it's salt water
maybe its retards watching mason stream rage at them off mic & reporting him in game and that's why he's forever shitpooled
>>557612714his account is markedthis is valve's doing
>>557605451the issue is that if there's an option to filter so only us western european players can queue together queue time will be half an hour
>>557614148the other option is me not playing the gamecage the animals or your game ends up being nothing but animals
>bananadogshitslamma analyst on dreamleague panelnothing we could do you guys
>>557614362animals break out of cages all the time
>>557608620toss is an inherently overpowered ability
>>557614778that is because there is little counterplay to movement displacementthe game needs an item that prevents it
>pos 5>pick WR>carry spazzes about how I'm trying to steal his role and that everybody should report me for role abuse>he picks rhasta>he spazzes out some more and calls me names>tell him that he's crazy and that I was obviously going to play support WR>silence>he doesn't throw the game>he lanes seriously and we get some kills>I get good farm and snowball into a win as carry WR>give him a commend>he commends backlmao dude's been mindbroken by streams or something
fucking garbage shit
>>557614976...BKB?
>>557615179hows he mindbroken if he played seriously
played against a retard techies pos1 who wanted to do the attack speed = attack range gimmick that was in one of jenkins' herald review. it didnt fly though
>>557618925I went mid against a tinker who rushed Dagons and had 100x my matches played. He stole his Drow Ranger's quadruple-stacked Ancient Camp. Didn't work for him.
>>557618306yes, the counterplay is to instantly bkb or else get moved out of positionwhich is shit
>>557619874You could blink away too.
>>557619874>which is shitYeah, I mean... Yeah. I didn't design the game!
>>557619982not alwaysthere are wayyyy too many forms of movement displacement for the lack of item counterplay
>>557619630Idk why but since 2026 started you just have way more casual griefers in games now. on my team and on the other as well
who do i pick during ramadan
>>557607694cs2 actually
>>557620249Pudge
>you can deal 4k damage with chaos meteor >but you need blink gleipnir and the talent>and you need bkb to survive and also cast it>you also throw yourself directly ontop of an enemy probably into 5 peopleIs this balanced
>>557620820just do the tornado meteor shockwave combo?
>>557621019But...
Why does QoP scream and release a little red projectile for every enemy in the circle instead of just taking damage from the circleIts very weird
Largo makes every esport game he's in have these long drawn out fights it's so boring
>>557620820>invoker>balancedlol
>>557621218because the damage is projectile based not aoe
>>557621082So much better...
>>557621218women don't make noise when screaming when there's no one to listen
>>557622345>women should be seen and not heardwhat did silencer mean by this
>>557618306>>557620000pudge hook mogs
>play offlane>get ran down by their 1+5 constantly>play carry>get dove by their 3+4 constantlywhat am I doing wrong, or am I just extremely unlucky with supports that never support?every time I go for a last hit I lose 300 hp when offlaning, and when playing carry I can never get their offlane off the wave.
>Tarrasque's paper weightlimit's displacement abilities to 300 total range of effectprovides str and hp regen
>>557610253was that his first time playing?I would never expect somebody who is a successful 1-game streamer to ever leave their game. especially when it's a comp game.
>>557614365he should get a speaking coach or someshit to stop the mumbling over words
>>557610253what a shitty hero pool.
>>557622936Play mid!!!
what's with Dota youtube and AI thumbnails/videos?
>>557621339but that's WEIRD
>>557624034It is a reflection of the game
>>557624240in what way
is playing pango griefhe's really fun to play
>>557623289apparently he put 500 hours into it
>5 stack turbothe worst thing to vs because you can never get ahead and the whole gamemode is winning teamfights and they have better coordination
>>557624169the damage interaction helps distribute the aghs effect
>>557622936What are you picking? Are you picking shit like AM and FV and playing passive as fuck or something?
>>557624391pick cheese like np
the disco/funk band should be mandatory on later dotes, they're a palette cleanser when the teams play dogshit
>>557624169Sound is slow. It's only like what, 300m/s? Of course it's a projectile.
i finally got out of 10-minute queue time behavior score!!!
sex with sheever
>>557610253omg he's awful.>bot mmr>no contribution>poor itemizationI would be mad at having this afk jungling retard on my team.>>557624381lol!
>>557624381You need at least 1,000+ hours to start being less shit at Dota so he's halfway there.
>>557623865I'm way too washed up to play mid. my team doesn't listen to missing calls and I don't get runes.>>557624440LC, Axe, Drow, Jugg.I hunger their support especially when he's trying to be cheeky in the trees. I orb walk to harass their offlaner on Drow and then they both step up and use mana on me while my support is hanging out behind me gooning to his second monitor.
quick question I NEED THE ANSWERif im pulling creeps and the neutral kills my own creep, does the exp go to enemies in range or is completely denied?i would really love to know this question
>>557626610Enemy get xp
>>557626391>wasting Axe's mana to harass with battle hungerAnon...>I orb walk to harass their offlaner on Drow and then they both step up and use mana on me while my support is hanging out behind meWhile the support is a retard, this sounds like poor positioning. If you're 1v2, the last thing you need to do is put yourself out there in auto-attack/spellcast range. Sucks for you but you should stay behind your creep wave.You should also pull the enemy creep wave in front of yours so that the enemy heroes can't just walk up to you.
Why does he look like this
>>557627365zxcv let me die
>Lina is pushing tower>witch doctor is literally sitting in the jungle watching her for a full minute>we are still losing ground in every other lane
>>557627625>"Oh, look at her go!"
Could someone explain what to do when every enemy is 3 levels upYou can't fight anyoneYou can't pushThe jungle gives less resources than supports get for afking
what if vacuum removed dust
Hello dotards i've done a website tool (and a beta client) that gives tips about wich hero to chose against different machups (https://dotapicker.eu.pythonanywhere.com/). It helps you draftng, avoiding bad picks or dodging shitty games with terrible teamcomps. The desktop client that just released makes everything automated so you can have the strongest heroes vs/with the enemy/you teamcomp in real-time and id be happy if you'll test that and send some feedback. Il'l drop you a premium account here so you wont cry but you can get as many trials (3 days) as you want by making fresh new accounts if necessary, just dm me on goonscord how long you want the premium to last and ill hardcode that premium time into the database for now. Or just use this test account: email: expired@test.com pw:expired (is not actually expired and ill keep it premium as long as you need). Sweated on the model and the formulas behind that for weeks. ive done benchmarks on real matches and it works, it gives you real infos wich makes you win more games. (i can go deeper into that if you are curious about). No is not a virus, scan that with any tool you want and feel free to post the scan results. If you shit in you pants about the client, just check the website. Thank you all, ill be here reading and answering any question.
>>557625579dota players overcomplicate this game thats the problem lol i have seen so many struggle idk if it because they only played dota
>>557628193Cool idea
>>557628193that's what youll see in a drafting phase when you restrict the model around your favorite heroes list.
>>557628193>pick a hero you have never played>it was good in my algorithms mind
>>557628363Thanks B)<--- and that's the whitelist/blacklist function
>>557628587You don't seem to understand the concept of "restricting the algorithm around your favorite heroes". It's okay i wont judge you.
>>557628193>premium account>free trialsnothx
>>557628193>>557628418overwolf vibez
>streamers have level 300+ curios>some people in my games have 300+ curioushow fucking pathetic to not even be immortal or professional and playing that much dota?
>>557628973i just play for fun haha! *griefs your game because you did one small thing that i don't like*
why do all dotards listen to rap almost exclusively?
>>557629150what should they be listening to?
>>557629150I don't listen to nigger music
>>557627067so its better if i deny them. goodalso, that when they pull i can just sit there for exp
>>557629150you mean rtz? lol
>>557628193the campo santo assassins are coming for you
>>557628820Literally said giving accounts for free..>>557628925 except my data is daily updated, im sure my model has statistical significance and my software isn't abandonware. >>557629150i listen classical, baroque especially.
>>557628218dotards love to obsess over insignificant details, like positioning the courier at the edge of the fountain so it can leave 0.1 seconds faster to deliver their first item, or oh you missed a deny? time to throw! >>557629079
is Mag hard to play?I'm kind of a retarded boomer and lost the hands for Invoker, but surely Mag isn't that intensive?Skewer is really strong.
>>557629150Same reason niggas workout with rap it gets you going in the zone and great music to hype you up nothing better then listening to ignorance while playing/doing something competitive
wtf is a hard support
>>557630393a support that's gooning to their second monitor.
I guess it's year of the horse
>Even in a game where I do all the mid things, I control the runes, I kill the other guy, I go on a killstreak>I am over half of our team's deaths and still can't fight anyone despite a 3-4 level advantage>3 levels over an anti-mage and he destroys me 1v1>except it wasn't a 1v1 there was an invisible weaver that just teleported in out of nowhere to add 300 damage with 1 auto attackThis game is fucking miserableWhen do I get to play
>>557631035>I am over half of our team's deaths
>>557631149And it doesn't fucking matterBecause nothing I do fucking mattersMy team beats their team, I am irrelevant, it is 42 to 16It doesn't matter how many times the Spirit Breaker runs at me with a Lifestealer in him, it doesn't matter how many times the Anti Mage hyper lategame carry walks up and deletes me despite my huge level advantage, the TA and the Nyx have already won the gameI am a non factor, I don't get to play
>>557631569Have you tried not dying?
>>557631035>>557631569>get carried>wtf why am I useless>get stomped>wtf why is my team uselesssmartest dotard.
>>557631569This isn't some baby game where you're allowed to play and have your turn, you have to take what you want and you get exactly what you deserve.
feels like life drain does 0 damage even at like 40+ spell amp
>>557632109Sure, at the startIf 3 people see you on your screen, you're not going to not dieIf they want to cc you for 9 seconds while being able to kill you in 2, they're going to do thatYour hero, build, and position don't matter, they can and will chase you halfway across the mapYour team won't come to help, and they will still have a gold and farm lead despite spending all that time grouping to kill you
>>557632461Skill issue.
>>557628193I don't want to support vibecoded garbage
>watch immortal draft game>creeps are being dragged everywhere>creeps clash in the river or between towers>almost never clash in organic locationsthis shit is retarded but they're too scared to remove it.
>>557634309would you rather have a forced meta like lol where you can't even swap lanes or kill towers early?
>>557634309>creeps clash in the river or between towersyeah i hate it when i boot up the game too
>>557634640deadlock fixed it. and every time they try to do some tranny shit to exploit the troopers they patch it out.
>>557634685you know what I'm talking about. creeps don't clash at Roshan or between 2 allied towers.
Veno dying to Queen of Pain and going "the pain... THE PAIN..!!" is pretty funny

>>557638342Marci should be immune to silenceHow do you silence that which has no voice?
>>557638848old dota would have done this
Deadlock is such a shit game LMAO
>>557638848her abilities arent vocal basedby that regard silence doesnt work for most heroes
>Play like shit in lane>Team coordinates like shit, borders on griefing one another (bodyblocking, stealing creep camps, OD banish luna's target during her eclipse)>Still somehow win fights when they push highground>come back>winIt's a victory and it was worse than 80% of my losses.
>>557625013I need sheever
>>557640661This is why I don't push high ground before I get my Nullifier, BKB and hopefully Aegis
>>557605451Only CSfags will get it, and the only reason Valve is giving it to them is because CS has the biggest cheating epidemic of any game ever and 99% of cheaters are ivans.Dota will never get something like this because, aside from the fact that the game is beyond the point of no return, the majority of the player base doesn't want it. To the average player, part of the appeal is being able to ruin a first world white person's day.
>>557640645IN TECHNICALITY, MARCI SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CAST SPELLS AKA THINGS THAT COST MANA OR USE MAGIC... IDK WHY AM HAS MANA...
>>557640626Deadlock is impressively bad, they somehow managed to make a game that makes aiming too easy but still requires zoomer-on-adderall levels of mechanical skill.
>>557629150Its just americans because their entire country is centered around rappers, they worship rappers. Watch any Euro streamer and they'll visible be disgusted by rap
>>557629984Conceptually he's not hard.But you'll probably have a hard time winning instead of feeding 20 deaths per game.
>>557641378>the game is bad because... IM BAD AT VIDEO GAMESok unc
>>557641612Game is bad because its bad
>>557631035This is me when I play pos 1 or mid.>farm hard>get shit on>help out teammates if I can, try to only join good fights>enemy team goes out of their way to shit on me>die often>teammates clean up without me>they push>winYou are already playing. You are...the tank, or sacrificial carry. Basically skiter. I'd say maybe lean into it. Find heroes that let you be the biggest pain in the ass in the world that'd also feed less.

Thoughts on Phylactery?
>>557633996You don't know what are you talking about if you believe you can "vibecode" a functional inference predictive model and multithreaded client using computer vision to real-time analyze enemy and allied teamcomps. You have to be quite smart so please help me, how would you have approached the problem of extracting the right information from the client at the right time?
>>557646124>Multithread in pythonLol
>>557643864is that somehow a hot take in your mind
>>557646236sf is literally babby's first mid lanerthe fact that he comes to mind over anybody with the word "spirit" in the name when you think of "sweaty tryhard mids" is concerning

Dota has this weird whiplash where 90% of the time it takes itself deadly seriously and then you see something like facet names or taunts that are all just retarded memes
do I get behavior score for reporting people that get banned?
>>557646421you aren't factoring in player mindset. SF is not hard but is the favorite pick of the kind of faggot who mentally crumbles after dying more than once and cares more about flexing on the enemy pos2 than about winning the game.>sf is literally babby's first mid lanerzeus and sniper are the easiest cores in the game wtf are you on about
>>557647262lol

jesus fuck
>largo has negative wr in prowtf d2g told me hes op in pro...
You know guys I'm starting to think Enchantress mid isn't actually any good and that she falls off stupidly hard even if you build full damage
>>557651251But you don't understand, man. A streamer said he was OP after you buy Radiance Kaya Aghs BKB so that means he's super duper OP and has to be picked in every game maaaaaan. And you're not allowed to point it out in /d2g/ because streamer opinions > everything.
>>557650852me in the bottom right
manta bfly skadi on every agi carry yes even weaver and clinkz
>>557651552I don't know about stupidly hard but Untouchable is only like, 3.5 Hyperstones or 2 Moon Shards at max. It's not damage immunity once the enemy carry buys like 3-4 items. So Ench is at best a squishy mid in terms of damage and carry ability because she can also only kill one person at a time once the game goes late enough because she will have to start playing around BKB, and the enemy's BKB since Impetus doesn't pierce debuff immunity. I'd compare her to Dark Willow.And ironically even though she has an advantage against melees for being ranged, because of how Impetus works, she gets less value from playing against too many melee cores because they'll all buy blinks and get in her face compared to a bunch of ranged heroes who will rarely get too close.
>>557653398She also can't stun/silence an enemy for 10 straight seconds so why even pick her compared to literally every single other hero in the entire fucking game
>>557653510Bro, your Bloodthorn?
>>557653616Active items are for nerds.
you're mine!
>>557655051this single line puts the entire ability of enchant into question of whether she's just friends with the animals or able to mind control dumb things
>>557655268enchanting historically has never been good
>>557655768good thing she's enchanting all the time!

what if they add pokemon types
>>557658275Type advantages always seem like something that could be added to games but the reality is that the system is fucking terrible, warps everything around itself, and does nothing but make matchups stupidly polarized while adding nothing at all to the gameplay
>>557658275they tried that already
>>55765827580% of nudota games are won at draft, may as well make it 99%.
>>557658275Marci would be a Normal/Fighting type!
>>557659038you mean fairy/fighting
>>557659114Whoa! That would be freaking AMAZING typing!! And there are currently no Fairy/Fighting types that exist in Pokemon, so she would be the first! Ooh, I freaking love that idea, let's do it!!
>>557658275it would get dropped 1 week later just like 80% of this game's systems
I think Lina would be fire type
fairy type is reserved for male bottom heroes

>>557663246>my hard pos 5 needs farmlmfaoinherint 40% spell damage amp with heals and the best slow resistance in the game cancelling every channel with a dispel isnt good enough

I am so fucking sick of mid tiny being impossible to kill and doing half my health whenever he presses a button
>>557663784youre retarded
>>557647325I mentally crumble after missing 1 cs.
>the muerta fighting a creep camp within full vision at a third health wasn't bait>but the alchemist farming a wave actually had the 3 level up bloodseeker and a pudge sitting there watching himI fucking hate this game so much
>>557663972He feels awkward to jungle with and falls off after 30 minutes. When I play Tiny and don't win in 30 mins (it wouldn't be a problem past 30 minutes, but my carry is usually dogshit) I wish I was some other mid hero.
>>557664909>noooooooooooooooo my stupid tanky cc bot doesn't do instakill damage by the time the game's over nooooooooooo
denies should be absolute 0 exp.
>>557663865Supports should pay for wards againLotus and bounties should be removed
I am once again asking what I am supposed to do other than just leave the game when the entire enemy team is 3-5 levels ahead
>>557665974you're supposed to let them agonize over going high ground while somebody farms
>>557666261So no real answer?
>>557666575did you want some magic solution dude buy rapier and comeback

Marci Marci Marci! I made her out of clay! Marci Marci Marci! As Marci I shall play!
Remember when heroes had clear weaknesses and strengths, and the game was more methodical that punished mistakes and didn't allow you to spam spells more than LoL?
Am I too retarded to function if I get really confused when I'm on dire and the map shows the thing that's clearly red in-game as green and then shows the thing that's always clearly green in-game as red and then it says "dire safelane" and I think "oh so that's our offlane?" and it takes me too long to put it together before everyone's already picked and I have to go support
>>557667627>4.0beta2>Zeus>CreatedNo?
Please explain why I shouldn't just run straight at sniper and intentionally feed for the entire game or how doing that is in any way functionally different than laning against him
>>557667916im newthe way i learned it is:top and bottom = safe laneleft and right = offlaneand then i play mid anyways cause its the least social anxiety inducing role
how long does it take for confidence to go back to 0 and no im not talking bout u i know it drains after 1 day
>>557668439>defensive aggro>double bracer if you're uni/str>ward control>stack jungle>outfarm on first few waves
>>557669098>buzzword>you only get the privilege of destroying your build just to not feed in lane vs this lategame hypercarry if you're p[laying a specific kind of hero>bro just spend even MORE gold to even be able to hit him>hope he's retarded
>>557669479What hero were you playing?>bro just spend even MORE gold to even be able to hit himSo you're playing a ranged hero and struggling? Lmao. It's not only to click him, it's to not be clicked too.
>>557669479>hypercarrysniper scales like shit
>Huskar should be here to kill me about now>riki comes and does itI'm developing gamesense through cynicism
>>557670008Also aggro manipulation is one of the most impportant parts of laning you're just being butthurt,.
>>557670151good thing sniper is so fucking far away that creeps won't even attack him if he hits you!
>>557670238that isnt the point of manipulating creeps
>>557670298You realize the fact that I have to play 4d chess and learn advanced game concepts just to even begin attempting to stop this character from walking into lane and clicking me to death from the character select screen is fucking retarded yesThat literally every single thing said in this thread as unironic "just do this lol" WITHOUT FAIL assumes that the sniper player is a drooling retard who doesn't even have his monitor on, because the character is so fucking braindead to dominate with that you can actually do that and still succeed if your opponents aren't smurfs
>>557670594here's a simpler tip: don't die niggahope this helps
>>557670594the beautiful thing about dota is that you do not have to sit still and hit creeps to laneonce you understand the other options available to you then a 1v1 vs a lane dominator wont seem so forbidding
>>557670763YES YOU DOTHE JUNGLE GIVES YOU LITERALLY FUCKING NOTHINGI DONT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU KEEP SAYING THIS
Sniper lines with obs and you can aggro melee creeps into your tower everytime, worst case scenario. Or you can creep drag, since he's a slow hero. You can make stacks for yourself later. You can rotate before level 6.Or you can accept being bad, that you can improve and you learn how to actually lane. Most heroes are fine against Sniper.
>>557670995open your mind
how does tide's kraken shell work, is it like the old stout shield damage block, but 100% chance and always active? so only on physical attacks? and then doubled on activate?
my sf keeps asking to fight while he rushes daed no bkb what slur should i call him
I like buying hats on heroes I don't even play and get nice outfits and I sugarcoat it by telling myself that I'll get to spam them eventually but it never really happens. I just like playing dress up with heroes as dolls more than I like playing them
>>557671952>he isnt doxxing people based off their steam profile details for more accurate flamingngmi
>>557671936pretty muchalso specifically auto attacks not phys spells
>>557661968basically yes, his kit is funny but against anyone with a brain it's kind of bad because lmao just run away from him. in human MMR he's an ult bot after 15 minutes
Remember when doom was actually a good spell?
>>557673394It should be reverse Borrowed Time, like when you MILDLY INCONVENIENCE someone it turns their HP regen into DoT.
>>557673161I mean what the fuck were they expecting him to be with a kit where he basically has no abilities and then a good ult
just delete these dogshit useless wacky nudota heroes like primal, willow, kez, muerta, dawn, marci, pango and largo honestly
>>557673949he's just the monster quota filler after people bitched about getting too many humanoids
>>557673949they dunno how to make a good hero because icefraud left and the jannies who still maintain dota are all shitters. not even talking out of my ass here, sean vanaman is 1k mmr.PB is one of the least bad attempts though i can see what they were going for, he probably still rapes in low skill games
>>557674482So who gaped your asshole, baby?
>>557674482yeah then buff the late wacky dota allstar heroes like earth spirit and arc warden or oracle
Remember semi carries?
>>557679958where's the pudge
MARCI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>557640661this is why you pick late game scalers and just farm forever because hg is a nightmare unless the star aligns and your team wins back to back teamfights under glyphs and buybacks before you fall off
I refuse to fight without BKB. I am afraid of CC.
>>557680569Sheesh Anon, it's the 4th one from the bottom. Are you blind?
>>557680569requires teammates to pick with. cant pick antimage pudge into a lane and battling for mid can be an issue
>pick undying offlane>winits that shrimple
this game is so fucking bad my team is always screaming at each other in broken English and running it down holy fuck nuke the third world
>>557674482muerta can stay
Is Mars nu-Dota?
>>557685459yup, 100%
>>557685658But he's cool and you like him so he's not nu-dota
>>557685810he looks like he came out of that old hercules cartoon, not cool at all
>>557684659how some people aren't comms restricted amazes me. they're so quick to enrage.
>>557685976>he... looks... old...you literally just said he looks cool
>>557685459Every single change from and after 7.00 needs to be reverted with no exceptions.
>pick undying offlane>lose>lie about it on /d2g/i...hate....lies...
>>557679958Prepare your fucking anus, buddy.Spanish Zeus "Hard Supports" are on their fucking way.

>A-Z self challenge>once a hero is maxed out and needs Dota Plus to gain more exp, I stop picking them>first carry done - LunaWhat's a comfort Carry I should go for next? Sven?
>>557686895great choice, luna is my favorite too, they changed medusa a lot but if you like luna it's hard not to like dusa too
>>557686995Okay, someone that doesn't require buying a Rapier to actually carry.
what's the counterplay to the opponents deathballing while you have 1-2 people farming the edge river instead of defending your high ground?
>>557687506cut waves
>somebody shows on the map>2+ instant teleports to the nearest toweris this really the meta? and the other lanes can never seize these opportunities to get a kill or push while their lane is gone?
what's the counterplay to getting almost an entire tower's worth of free farm and still not having enough damage to kill the offlaner before they stunlock and instakill you under your tower?
>>557687836developing awareness
>>557687780FARMING LANE CREEPS IS RETARDED FAST AND A GROUP 5 MANNING CAN EASILY GET OUTCARRIED BY JUST ONE FARMER IF THE CARDS ARE PLAYED RIGHT
>>557688313You mean if every member of the 5 man is a complete retard
>>557688313honestly do not care about your herald opinions. >>557679958
>>557688432A SVEN CAN FARM UP A BLINK MASK OF MADNESS BEFORE ALL YOUR TIER 2S ARE TAKEN GUARANTEED
>>557688786ON A 7 WIN STREAK RIGHT NOW BUD. 1500 MMR. YOU GONNA LITERALLY FREAK OUT WHEN I RAISE SOME HEAVY MMR? CANT STOP SHITPOSTING ABOUT ME IS SOME CRAZY SHIT
>>557687963awareness of what? game balance?
>>557688814>stuns youwhat now?
>>557686651He's literally just Axe with a model from this decade
who should i play to just do whatever i want and be impossible to ever kill?
>>557688990who can kill who, who should run away from a fight
I wish I still liked video games, this game used to be my passion.
It's insane that I can activate BKB and they will still just have 10 seconds of stuns left over
>we push from our base to the win within the 5 minutes of a disconnect before the game doesn't countthis game is so fucking stupid
>>557674482ummm but I spent money on skins for Marci? if they remove her from the game I will stop playing.
>>557674482See, you didn't even think to include Mars here
>>557692053What changed?
was the dota anime any good
>>557694458Fuck no
>>557694458>Introduced MarciFuck yeah
>>557694439wish I knew boss
>enemy picks zero late game>win, but it's fucking annoying
I meant to ask two months ago, but why did they cuck Battle Hunger?
>>557696652because axe can't be good forever in every single patch all the fucking time 15 years straight, that's why
2k hours and stuck in Herald lololololthe Steam reviews for this game are so funny
>>557696850many such cases, lots of people put no thought into the game at all
>>557696850>Dota plus content should be free in my opinion. It is not fair to impose a monthly subscription."Gamers are entitled scum" is a statement of fact. Too bad most people bring it up in irrelevant circumstances, like having an argument and pointing out someone is fat.
>play 1>nobody goes in or stands in front of me>play 2>don't play 2>play 3>stun them but nobody does any damage>play 4>3 is a retard and gets outfarmed while not taking the kills I setup for him>play 5>usually do really well in lane but my carry doesn't know what to do after lanefuck.
>>557700547>>557696850He is not wrongDota plus shit should be free because half of it is broken anyway.
>>557700796AYO GIBS ME DAT FOR FREE
>>557700823Yes?valve doesn't put any money into dotawhy should they keep charging for broken abandoned shit?
>>557701148>abandoned>daily updates>doesn't put any money into dotaYou're funny, stupid nigga.
>>557701205dota is with the skeleton crew, all the creative people are working on deadlock and will stay there because they want to launch it this year
>>557701281Citation needed for that goalpost moving, shit-for-brains.
>>557701281it's not launching this year lmao.
>>557701414I agree it's too barebones, but they are working on it harder than any other game, they release patches with 5 6 new heroes every 2 or 3 months, deadlock is taking all the resources while dota gets rerun events and hats patches
>>557701618>dota doesn't have enough FOMO
>>557701908crownfall ended more than 1 year ago
>>557702019Don't. Fucking. Care.
>>557701205Dota has a fuckload of abandoned shit that they tested out once, found out they couldn't monetize then threw together into dota+ as an excuse to keep milking money out of retards like you
>>557702223Don't even have Dota+. My itemization and theory are already impeccable.Seethe, poorfag.
>>557701618no they don't lol. hl3 is the main focus. deadlock is getting 2 major updates a year.
>>557702569HL3 isn't happening, period.
>>557696850>7k hours>crusader 1just fucking kill me
>>557702468????And?
Surprising no-one, the Sniper with the completely blank Level 0 Steam account who spent the first 10 minutes of the game following me around trying to steal my farm even after I went to farm the side Jungle proved to be useless.Why the fuck are you inting Turbo?Is Turbo even ranked?
Dota is pretty much over brolet it go.
>>557703950just one more game bro please
>>557703496boosting for other team, even happens in arcade
>>557696850He's right though. I was 3k hours in when I came back to the game and ended up bottom 1%, 50 MMR.I've played with and against divines and ancients and do fine. Even when the game had hidden MMR [normal, high, very high] I did fine. I have occasionally stomped these games too.Sub 100 MMR is a weird place because it's full of people like >>557703496 and it's also full of smurfs who delay the game until 110mins so they can try farming rampages.Anyone who's played long enough knows the ranked numbers are meaningless when there's a significant amount of people not playing to win.
>>557705913in the old ranking system I was 3.5k and as soon as the new one came I was calibrated at herald sub 1k mmr, it makes no sense.
>>557674482and snapfire! don't forget snapfire!
>>557686298>undo all reborn changes and everything that came afterwardinsanely based, take my fucking money
>>557707376MMR did inflate over the years but also there's a lot more boosting, smurfs and griefing.
How would you fix phylactery?
>>557712539remove the bonus damage, increase the slow duration
>>557700796what is broken?
>>557707376Mmr deflated, 1k mmr today is unironically more skilled than 4k 10 years ago.
playing dota is too mentally draining for me I get too anxious at the thought of queuing
>>557719053meds
man the new treant SUCKSor am i missing something
>>557719053SAME I can play like 3 matches a week and then my brain puts me on cooldown.
>>557719819I can only play core when I take benzos to take the edge off else it's too stressful
>>557721209lololol i only play mid cause having a lane partner makes my head spin
It's okay babygirls I'll hit the creeps ypu just keep giving daddy that tasty mana aura and keep buying him salves

>collapse necro pos3>bottom nw of coresis this nigger retarded?
Collapse seems like the euthanizer type. Last TI during the game with Yatoro NP trying to rat through backdoor protection Collapse had mantle of intelligence in his backpack for some reason
which carry is for me if i'm a precious adorable boy that needs to be protected while i suckle CM's big mana-infused milkies?
>>557727374he had it in his backpack for an autist like you to obsess over
>>557728150thank you for announcing your presence

Why does seleri have to announce he doesn't eat meat we know your vegan don't need to have it as your tag
>>557728451to make corpse eating autists like you seethe
>>557728451The point of being vegan is telling people you're vegan to feel superior.
>>557729993veganism is morally superior yes

Sometimes I forget everyone on /vg/ is like 45 years old and then I see some ancient archaic buzzword that reminds me
All the pros use the same courier as me (el gato)
>check out rtz stream because I'm bored>he's ranting and being upset about the factthat "zoomers" don't suck off his dick and interact with him back when he flames them in DotaWhat's wrong with Americans? like who watches this pig? Why do americans worship people like this?
>>557734797What, like he wants people to be nice to him after he flames them? Sounds like a weirdo
>>557734797arteezy is from canada crodie
>>557734525source?
>>557734845No he got mad that when he flamed someone the person said "mind your own game" and instead he wanted the person to apologize and suck off his dick.And then he started to rant about how we old people didn't interact like that and the culture is totally different.
>>557734875didnt expect to see toronto slang here

Finally out of Low Prio. Some of the guys I played with have 1.5k games of single draft on their dotabuff, so like 10% of their games spent in low prio. Why don't they just quit the game, how can they live with themselves permanently stuck in some sort of bad boy purgatory
>>557736145Very might well be she has amazing eyes if I do say so myself
>>557736318It's not their fault campo santo forces them to play low prio they good boys they dindu nothing they team griefed them its the shadowpool and forced fifty its not dey fault dey destroy items and feed

offlane is just genuinely awful to play
behavior score doomers are weirdthe very few times I tanked mine out of 500 or 1k at once I just played pos5 on anonymous mode and every game I just got commended hard and my score went up +300 per 15 game reportpeople never report or blame supports even if youre bad. but youre not right since youre a prescient d2g dotard. the only downside is having to play support for so many games which gets boring
>>557737596is that your experience with a tanked behaviour score?
>>557737830>people never report or blame supports even if youre badI'm at 5.7k comm scoremy dogshit core keeps dying because they stay on lane with no wave when I pull(I ping and do careful, pulling creeps chatwheel) and pin the blame on meI can't defend myself and get reported anywayhappens every other game, even if you buy save items like glimmer, force or lotus, coretards just can't accept being the sole reason they lose after making bad decisionsofflane gets flamed easily as well
>>557737830>all i did was completely change my behaviour to be as good boy as possible to suck my teammates dicks and regain my behavior scorethere is more downside than you suggest
>>557737830I'm at 12k bs/cs. It's bad enough up here as it is. I don't want to ever play with the animals and psychos who are stuck below me.
>>557737925I have been playing a game or two a day for about 2 weeks starting at 3k and am up to 4900
Did dotas playercount go up because they mentioned the international? I always remember it hovering around 300-500k and now it's at 750k

>>557740265I don't want to play with the losers in the thread who whine and cope all day about how it's not their fault they can't stay above 3k comm score.
I just abandoned a game where my 4 was a riki that didn't skill smokescreen until 11 and didn't buy any wards. I bought out all 8 wards and ferried them to him with a cour, then spammed chatwheels. I don't care, playing with such filthy subhumans is worse than losing 1k behavior score.

How can sniper fall off late game if he's a ranged right click hero
>>557742470his str gain is garbage and his steroid doesnt scale
>>557742604How can a steroid not scale
>>557742470headshot is blocked by bkb and doesnt crit
>>557742756the damage it provides is fixedunlike scaling steriods like gunslinger or essence shift
>>557742869Just stack attack speed
>>55773873612k is plagued by sneak griefers who will intentionally lose the game if you do anything they perceive as a slight
>>557743010that doesnt change the fact the ability doesnt scaleand this is why sniper is shit late game, you can itemize for attack speed or for attack damage or for survivabilitybut not all three at oncea hero like muerta only needs 2 of those to hit like a truck late
>>557742869Because slark is soo good lategame
do i need to lose mmr to have chill games? all my games feel so fucking hard this week, if my winrate had dropped i'd guess i've reached my peak mmr but i think the patch just sux and the team with less early game picks will suffer a lot
>>557743459he's top 5 ultra late carries

...on opposite day
>>557743669>let me come up with theoretical scenarios which defeat you!!!!pushing hg against any farm ranged hero is a pain in the assthat doesnt change that sniper scales like shit
Why do all Slarks go diffusal if it has such a shit winrate with so many games to prove its bad
>>557743459slark can be shit and still have a scaling damage steroid
>>557743241They scale the exact same way

>>557766398
>>557766398dota has been chink pandering since before you were born
>>557766614just like every western developer
>>557766706Are you upset about a market of 1.4 billion people?

What exactly is stopping me from going full passive aura Largo and just following my team around playing tunes?
>>557766932not my post, not my opiniontry again (if you care)
>>557767073Lack of farming ability.
>>557767194But what if I play Support?
>>557766990he's electrons
>>557766849Literally and unironically Abaddon.
>>557767248If you're a dual melee, the lane will probably go badly. And you still lack farming ability. It's like Omniknight.

I never really bothered to play soloq in dota until recently, is the midgame always a clownfiesta? everyone roams and makes plays bar the pos1?
>>557801837Yeah! :D
Leaguechads are laughing at us...
>>557801907thats so sick, a lot more fun than just laning for 20 mins

>>557808357How did you only get level 3 Hunter Rank? I have social anxiety and can't play more than one match at a time cause of it and my monhun rank is higher...
>>557808503Because I didn't play during the event.I was taking a break from Mobas for a few months.
>>557808570understandable have a nice day
>>557808357>No carry and most kills on KotL and AA>vs>Sniper/lifestealer/BB/Axe>At 48 minutesIf you spent less time dunking on luna and more pushing towers, you'd have won.
>>557808357losing when luna has 28 death is nasty work
>>557809931>>557809976that poor Luna just had the worst game of hia fucking lifehomie saw the victory screen and probably screamed "at what cost"
>>557808357why go for agi blink instead of building a useful item
>Pudge Hard Support>doesn't buy wards>doesn't buy Greaves>can't land hooks for shit>leaves carry alone 1v2 to "roam">we loseNice!
>>557809931>>557809976>>557810017The best part is, me and Venomancer were the ones laning against her and Axe.We did that.>>557810363My nigga in Christ that's Parasma.Swift Blink looks like this.And it's because I forgot to switch off the meme facet so I figured might as well fuck around while we were ahead.
I like to play lane dominator position 4s and just completely shit on the enemy carry, bonus points if I can take tower early and shut down his jungle too. What heroes are good for this niche? I main Pugna but also play a fair bit of Lina and Windranger. I tried Skywrath and Jakiro but I found them awkward and slow and too dependent on their spells for damage. Jakiro's short range was also awkward. Any other suggestions?
>>557810880Lichy Lich
>>557810812some made up item. shouldve went something useful
>>557810812>fuck around while ahead>instead of ending fast while you have the advantageThat's why you lost. Stay in Herald.Next time buy Meteor hammer.
newfag here, the only character I've never seen anyone play is Visage.i've even seen meepo & chen. why?
What does this face imply
>>557813784>they call her 0 0 7> 0 kills 0 deaths 7 assists by minute 10
do you guys find match quality is worse lately
>>557813578Not sleeper OP. Not pro FOTM. Not a top tier mid with ganker set. Not an initiator. Not a carry. You can pick him if you want to do early kills in lane, but that's about it.
I always save dormant curio for tier 4 items, what about you doeturds
>>557814614Oh yeah, Medallion of Courage got removed. That's why.
>>557811180I haven't played him in a while, I like spamming his shit but I feel like his auto attacks are also slow and short ranged and not that strong. Any tips?
>>557815874he could have 0 attack damage and he would probably still be pretty strong lol he has so much mana
>get to crusader 1>don't want to play because I'm scared of getting demoted to guardian again>play 2 games>it's a stomp either winning or losingIs this how it's going to be from now on? First game I went mid marci and won the lane pretty hard against a slark but our carries were dogshit and couldn't carry us to victory, second game I played phoenix and got 9 kills and died 3 times only and we won by a landslide, judging from these two games it seems like I am not really having a great deal of influence over the outcome of the games.
>>557816624I was stuck at that level and then I played a bunch of games with a m8 and gained 1k MMR, and it is a bit like that. I just had a game where my teammates instalocked Lion offlane and Omniknight mid (no they weren't party swapping) and both had mistaken their roles thinking they were support but we just went with it and won in 25 minutes.
>>557811668>Stay in Herald.>Next time buy Meteor hammer.I'm not stupid, I know that's a meme item.
Hurricane Pike and drag lance need to be removed from the fucking game, every ranged carry is way too fucking safe and diving is bullshit risky, and every high ground is completely impossible
>>557817794this but lens and glimmer
>>557813784that's the face i make when i want to fart but instead i shit my pants
boobs
>>557792683>>557795540Maybe you should watch a replay and compare farming patterns and gold income. Because even though hero kill gold is pretty high, it's basically just 300-500 gold a kill and that's only like 1-2 creep waves or neutral camps, for however long they spent waiting in the bushes.
>>557797741Dire has 3 fat STR heroes and a Luna. Radiant could win but they'd have to work real fucking hard for it with lots of aggressive ganks and early pushes because they can't brawl like Dire.But really, LC vs Boner King is a free win for LC.And Weaver will make the mistake of buying Mjollnir first because he thinks the game will last more than 30 minutes.
>>557813784>>557819238nobody likes these characters
>>557817207It's not a meme item if you need to take towers yourself.
>>557821736You're right, everyone loves them
>>557821736Then why is there so much art of them naked huh
woke up in a bad mood. dont queue EUW if youre in low divine, im gonna ruin all day
>>557816624>our carries>swhat the fuck is going on in your games
>>557816624Up to Legend games are decided at draft
>>557824490It's the opposite though. Below Legend, you can do whatever the fuck you want and still win.At Legend, cores start learning to farm a little so it's not a guarantee anymore. Support players are still mostly retarded.
Topson is having so much fun playing the other game...
Might just play batrider 5 all day

>>557821342Thank you for actively confirming that this is total bullshit and makes no sense
>>557836349I cant stand the hero shooter genre. If you want individual classes I think TF2 does it right but this whole FPS with moba elements thing doesnt look right
>>557836349Just like dota did in alpha
>>557836349it's at the point of 2012 dota2. already better than current dota also.
Character shooters are all about character designs, and Valve can't into character designs anymore. The shit looks worse than battleborn
please keep seething about valve's newest child getting all the time, money and attention, it's a great look
>>557836721Its not better than current dota at all >>557836349The game is just third person dota 2 classic but dota players seems to overthink the fuck out of the game
>>557836984Yeah the characters designs are terrible other than the mole man only dude that has that dota soul to him

when/why did "shit tons of obnoxious particle effects" become the prevailing fashion trend in dota?
>>557836516I don't know what you're talking about. Farming efficiency matters. Some low rank mid roaming back and forth for 30 minutes with 5 kills and 100 last hits is going to be severely underfarmed compared to the mid with 300 last hits who hits 2-5 neutral camps and creep waves every time they rotate. This shit adds up and does matter. Farm doesn't come out of nowhere. My point was that you should look where it did come from.
