>>574592979
>>574592979it's called "Style" which you know nothing about
Buff Hoodwink
>>574593552I know this is a meme, but i feel like Hoodwink is in a good middle ground right now.
>wake up>no patch
>>574593331Bro it's little girls, grow up and also chemically castrate yourself and stay away from schools.
>>574592979What a sick freak honestly just disgusting shit
Chat, is this real?
How does the santa hat for skeleton king work? It looks like a separate hat from the arcana that's for the wraith skin?
>>574593841where did it all go wrong for xim?looks like a regular White kid.
I love going afk in the bot lobby
>>574594171Yeah its the same steam id.
Why does everyone bully augar?
>>574594331hung on the wrong discords around the wrong kind of freaks i guess
>>574594581He's a furry. He's gay. He's a pedophile, and he's 1kmmr. If you offer him genuine feedback, he calls you a schizo, faggot, or nigger or something of that flavor. He spams all day blaming his teamates despite being a horrible player, and he believes there's a "thread bully" in /d2g/ who apparently bullies people or something. Guy is a complete lolcow.
>>574593841lol is this the nigga saying nigger 24/7 crazy ass shit i keep saying you must keep your masculinity at all cost in 2026 or you end up like him
Dare I
>>574596550I skip those. I got the Bastion announcer at release, and never switched back.
>>574595236Well, he's 2.5k now, and has 53% winrate. How bad can he be?
what changes would you like to see in a custom dota fork with its own mm system? heres what i want and would do:carries back to being the strongest late game. real win conditions.lane and game counterpicks back to being brutal/more brutal. drafting more important.supports less gold. not pos6 but poorer. stronger spells, stronger early game.more diversity of heroes. remove mobility from heroes who got it for free (ursa, puck). make farming less universally viable and remove farming from heroes who didnt have it before. ursa can rush blink basher again.remove multishot glif and cooldown. make 20 min gg push viable again.remove neutrals.less gold and items. item timings matter moresuggestions?
>Skill Range: Very WideI press Accept and euthanize.
>>574595236Thread bully is real thoughbeit.
>>574595236Seems like something a schizo would post.
>>574597089Do you really have to prop yourself up with these obvious samefags I mean come on man this is really obviousFrom your old picture >>574593841 you seemed like a normal fella albeit on the autistic side and something over the years made you tip over into an insane freak with eccentric sexual proclivities. You need to tighten up and stop the bullshit man this aint a good look. You're known as the gay furry pedo on here and this is an anonymous place, what about places where people can identify you?
>>574598632lol i've been here like 14 years. i m doing just fine. idc dude.the real question is has anyone ever loved YOU?
>>574596793I've been using the bastion announcer too
I for one think augar is a pretty cool guy :)
sex with hoodwink
MONEY AND BONES!MONEY AND BONES!
>have to play 100 games of dota now to finish the battle pass to see the storyffs why did they make it good this time
>>574600191Squirrel cuteAlso you'll need a lot more games than that as this is jut the first act
>>574600191Hoodwink and Slark are peak heroes, and they will probably bang at the end of it.
>slark, slardar and tide all in the same game>griefing and spamming voice lines.i hate fish people.
>>574600309Why won't they patch in a 10% pitch shift on Slark in the event, that would fix his voice.
So it is the same VA for Slark then? Maybe it's just an artistic choice.
>>574600486Wasn't his voice originally more high pitched before they pitched it down a bit?
>>574600586It's the same but as usual Valve fucked up the filters
>>574600309Are you implying he's going to break up with his fiance? Ridiculous.
>>574599879MONEY AND BONES!MONEY AND BONES!
>>574600592Don't think so
augr is also more than half the posts in this general most likely. maybe even more. at least he keeps it from dying.
loona glaives go fwish fwish fwish
>tell my muted map scribbling void to stop going solo after he dies and misses multiple chronos in a row>you have been muted for the rest of the matchfunny how muted subhumans will mass report you for ANYTHINGand that's 3 months of comm score down from a single match12k behavior and 7k score for the last 2 years, it's impossible to go up

In fact, dumbfuck statements like that is why I gladly going against the ""consensus"". I even flamed the dipshit for his constant whining. I just don't need to make up reasons to hate on someone.

Yo, lemme tell y'all sumthin' real quick: old Dota 2 was straight GAS! Back den da game was balanced af, heroes felt fun as hell, lanes was intense, and every match hit different. Now? Dey done messed it up wit all dat new patch bullshit, paywall cosmetics, and weird ass changes. Game ain't fun no mo', it feel like work. Old Dota > new Dota, period. We missin' dat era fr fr.
>>574620607there's some thing tht were better i guess, but some things were genuinely gay as bro, idk what i prefer really
>>574617223peesg hands typed this post
>>574620607also it was NOT BALANCED @ all fk off lmaoand another thing, u really think having only 1 courier split between 5 players was a good idea? get fkt nub there was plenty of dog shit wrong with that shit ass era of shita2
Schizo posting is so back..You're welcome /d2g/
>>574620972bitch ass gay boy fuck outta here>>574621076nigga 1 bird required SKILL!! game givin free money like EBT now fo everyone yo. U was just bad back then bruh
>>574621220who>>574621235ur gay if u genuinely think wat ur thinkin u like big smelly gay penises ur gay!!!!!!!
>>574621776bitch I aint no homo fuck outta here fr. dumb ass mofo enjoy yo league of legends brawl nigga faggot gay ass nigga
Hey /d2g/.Hey.Heeeey.Here's your pos 4 for tonight.
>>574622085no cap bussin ong this nigga likes havin 1 courier, he sits in his cuck chair watchin his team use the courier while he waits patiently
Rape all sniper pickers.
>>574622626One courier was objectively better. It meant that laning required more skill, calculation, and brain power. You couldn't just ferry regen over and over. Also, sniping the courier was a huge deal. It was a viable strategy to find it as prophet or bounty hunter to disrupt the flow of the game.
>>574622919bruh acts like mid didn't hog the courier to bottle ferry for the first 8 minutes of the match
>>574622919uh huh enjoy walking back to base over and over cuck dota 2 peaked just before reborn came out imo, but the 1 courier shit was objectively faggot
I only played lone druid in dota 1 to use the bear as a courier.
>>574622992fkn gay as nigga mid was THE ROLE, clown ass bitch!! yo went solo mid to WIN games n stomp niggas u had the most impact wif high stakes no shit im sippin dat bottle to win dumb ass.
>>574623254jungling was the coolest role to play back then and even then it was still griefing half the time
>get new reportcard>3 games reported>mfw niggers will literally report you for their own fuck upsseriously, if you have a bad game you get reported for griefing with no verification. its dogshit.
>>574623452no1 cares stfu loser
lmao yall are bored dota is peaking right now
>>574623491its peaking like a piece of shit coming out of my ass. modern dota is trash, they ruined the game. its basically heroes of the storm where all you do is brawl and theres only one strategy: brawl. icefrog abandoned it years ago
>>574623490kys faggot you're probably one of those shitters who 5 reports his whole team win or losei'm over here getting trolled by this retarded avoid system that should have no limit and fags from weeks ago that I KNOW are shit / bots still aren't permabanned
>>574623585yea thats y ur in this stupid fkn thread cuz u hate this game so much>>574623604yea i do report u every game cuz ur a faggot and u have no friends and u solo queue ranked ur a loser fk u LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>574623659man it sure is summer in here
>>574623659unc must be 40 years old with these gifs fr boomer ass nigga
>>574623714winter 4 me cuz im in ASSTRALIA
>>574623764oh so you're a descendant of rapists and murderersare you black too?
>>574623604U mad bro??
>>574623763if i was 40 browsing this gay website i should just kill myself desu>>574623848a lot of us were scottish/irish etc retard just like amerimutts, there's really no black people here desu, at least not where i live u dum americunt
>>574623585lol go get drug tested
>>574623912fuck i forgot if u type tee bee h you say desu cuz this website is for girly cartoon faggot agp trannys
Why is Ench not a Lover when she supposedly loves everything
>>574623912u will be bro, no one ever leaves this shithole!>>574623927It was 100% a better game, you have no individual impact in dota anymore. It's just a brawl fest where you drool and press all of your buttons. It requires no skill, thinking, planning, or brain power.
>>574623490holy shit is this real?
>>574624109bcuz jakiro heads kiss each other n they r gay 4 eachother bro enchantress doesn't have a 2nd person 2 kiss >>574624120if u really think this game required much more effort or skill than it does now ur brain dead roflmao >>574624121ya
>>574624221it did. there was one courier and you had to manage your regen in the laning phaseyou didnt have a tp slot and not having a tp could cost the game or get your mid ganked with no backupyou also have 10x more hp and stats now so its easy mode. u used to need a brain and could win games with multiple strategies like rat dota or memepushing early but now its just brawl and seige high ground like an old man cautiously
>>574624392go back and look at the disparity of win rates and how broken some heroes were retard, the game was insanely unbalanced, you literally just mentioned rat dota, there was a period where terrorblade was unstoppable he was literally so broken nothing could beat him and illusions would shred towers you are so fucking far up your own ass you know nothing about the history of this stupid game
What is the point of Doom? To maybe disable one enemy hero before any other carry melts him instantly?
>>574624535to play with grimstroker i guess
>>574624484there are winners and losers in every patch. its called a game chief.
>>574624597there hasn't been a period as broken as those since tho r-tard, again u don't know jack shit abt what ur fkn talkin about, i doubt u played back then
>>574624670my first game was 13 years ago. I played, and i also played with your mom. mad? I've seen it all.
>>574625032is that u in that picture? dam bro ur balding already, its over for u dude u should probably just kys loli wasn't saying old dota 2 is objectively worse i literally said earlier i miss jungling even tho jungling was griefing most the time, there's some things that were fun and cool, i feel like there was more build variety as well, everything feels very cookie cutter and talents were gay and still are, especially the facets tho they didn't last long, but i still standby the fact u have no fkn clue wtf ur talkin about and ur memory is so full of shit and distorted u have no fucken idea what ur sayin lol go back and sit in ur cuck chair and wait for the courier i need it rn fool
>>574625168yeah thats me in the pic. yeah jungling was fun but a grief pick, there would always be some dumbass who would pick lifestealer woods instead of a support. but it could work. (not really), you would have 4 cores. and bro i have 7k hours in the game, i will admit that i got in a car accident a few years ago and was in the hospital with amnesia and slight brain damage but i remember dota in my soul. it was a better game back then. i know more than u bucko
>>574624535You doom yourself and jump in and cause havoc because you're running down any carry like you're a roided nightstalker and they can't do their job.
>>574625498i just miss pre reborn dota2, there's a lot of things i do miss but i can't say that the game was objectively better, there was so much horseshit still that they have cleaned up objectively in nu-dota*smooches ur head wound*
>>574625498remember when neutral items first came out and u had cunts hoarding them all? and it wasn't like split up properly, and you could have more than 1 honestly i would remove neutral items, talents asap if i could, or make some of the neutral items normal items u can just buy, somethin like that? idk
>>574625602Same. Pre-7.00 will always be dota for me. I'm really just mostly shitposting and I think you know that. I think the game was better back then in certain regards in terms of certain things (mostly carry/mid roles) the bottle crow stuff was retarded, but it's also so much better now playing support and in tons of other ways. I feel like the game lost its magic, but its prob just me getting older
>>574625908well yea that's one thing i'll def admit as well, supporting is actually bearable now, it's actually a role u feel like u can play where u rnt placing a hot iron on ur nut sack and gelding urself for ur team, wards being free is a great change, they may as well make sents free at this point,, almost said tee b heytch, but idk if they will, it's kind of gay that the map is way bigger and wards feel super limited right now, i always feel like i don't have enough information on the map nowadays, im a pos1 medusa spammer lol
>>574626041speaking of medusa, i really like what they did to her cuz she feels really broken sometimes but also really shit sometimes, the fact that certain abilities just literally don't do shit to her, like maledict feels really strong, but some heroes do still dumpster her, idk bro she just makes me rock hard when i look at her
>>574625032>13 year vetlmao. you know nothing about the game.
>>574626379shut the fuck up slimer, he knows more than u can comprehend and he has less than half ur brain cuz he had a car accident he's badass
>>574626379Wrong. I've seen it all. you are a dumb ass piece of shit retard and can suck my balls.
>>574626425Exactly, this guys is cooking!! I am a beacon of knowldege blazing across a black sea of ignorance!
>>57462646213 years means u got 2 see drow with her old bubble silence, 6.79, i think, that's when i started playin, i remember wraith knight, those r sum of my earliest memories, i also remember being younger and playin dragon knight on dota 1 solo not really knowing wtf dota1 was and tryin to kill roshan and dying lol, thats y 1 of my first heroes in dota2 was DK and i would just build energy boosters and health boosters cuz i didn't know how to build items then i found out demon edges existed and i was like holy fk!!! +40 dmg!! im unstoppable!!! and i would just buy like 3 of those lol
>>574626631kino
>>574626631I remember spirit breaker being the most OP hero and he could solo kill anyone. I think Drow was also broken in that patch. lol I would just pick doom, shadow demon, and lich because they looked cool and scary. This was also back when everyone was figuring out the game and me and my friends got destroyed by a lich chain frost for a few games. The guy got a few rampages because no one knew to run away from the ult. In some of my games looking back I got 3 radiances because i thought they stacked and gave me more fire damage.
>>574626772it was really fun figuring it all out. there werent even guides back then
>>574602971>it is impossible to shut your retarded ass up
>>574626923yea i remember getting steam rolled by spirit breaker all the fucking time then i started playing him too and i would just build attack speed and stack like maelstroms and assault curaiss when i figured out how to build shit and i would attack so fast and bash the shit outa people and i still have a 60% win rate on him atm, i just haven't really played him since he stopped being a steam roll carry like he use to be, he's kind of boring and basic now, also yea back then at least i think drow was a mid hero and you would get shadow blade and go gank people and it was broken, i also had a friend who said bro just stack abyssal blades on blood seeker cuz this was when he had that 12 fucking second silence that gave you shit loads of damage and i would just buy 2 abyssal blades and pwn people it was cool as
Why Saksa hates 33?
>>574627118>>574627036now i actually know how to play the game and it's boring now :( there's no spontaneous moments where im like oh shit i figured somethin out idk everything just feels done if that makes sense :|
>>574613836>>574617120what drives a man to seethe about everything while playing the meme mode and keep mentioning his totally real friends on an anonymous basket weaving forum? i got a projector to sell you anon
>>574627347what drives a man to solo queue this game r u fkn in2 cock n ball torture? go back 2 ur cuck chair r-tard
I tried going naked blink on Enigma to fight faster but my eidolons did jack shit when it came to farming and I couldn't understand what was different until I bought a vlad's later and it was day and night. How the fuck are people getting away with only drums?

>>574624109The Lovers is intimate. Not general.>But Jakiro...>Pyrexae dragon clutches always contain two fledglings. Famous for their viciousness even from the first moments of life, newly hatched dragons of this species will try to kill their sibling while still in the nest. Only the strongest survive.And it also represents marriage. The Fear and Hunger kind.
>>574624109I literally just thought lovers meant it was micro heroes one ones that had pairs like batrider or luna. I didnt think they put effort into sorting them into tarots.
>>574628541gonna do palm readings on u, i got my energy crystals ready, im wearing a amethyst necklace rn
>>574628541It's less micro heroes and mostly multiple entities in one hero. Otherwise Chen and Ench would be on the list.
>>574627470Those little niglets die very easily if you don't micromanage them.
>>574627470did you try pulling the camp out so you can attack it while it runs back and forth?like every hero does when they jungle without lifesteal?
it was too good to be true. ended the night with back-to-back games filled with agents on my team.oh well.

>>574630146>>574630551No because I always vlad's rushed because I liked the aura. The eidolons don't just die unless I'm tanking but they don't do damage. I had them die instantly while trying to do ancients.

Brehs, I'm pretty much just cycling between LoL, Deadlock, and Dota to get my team game fix. I've been playing a bunch of Turbo, but how long does it take to unlock ranked?Probably not going to jump into it right away when it does come up, because I need to play more normal games and learn hero counters. Really excited to play support positions.

Can one of you fine draw folks make some quick and dirty art of necro doing the courage the cowardly dog meme of:"That's it, I'm getting me mallet"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxBUdP0Dz_oWe were stomping the game, but weren't able to reliably get T2 towers, so instead of heart I opted for my glorious hammer.
>>574639665I love you meteor hammer.
>>574639762
>>574639762That lion carried you.
>>574639762>>574639924I'm an old fag way before my fav heroes (Kunkka & WR) got introduced Redpill me on the memehammerWhat is its purposeThe setup (3 fucking seconds of channelling) seems incredibly unlikely to work anywhere except maybe with OD's imprison
>>574640449Clears creepsWorks on buildings If you can set it up with a long stun it's an extender that deals good damageInvoker buys it
>>574640449It's 2s channeling.meh-level waveclear for heroes without it, and damage to towersit actually used to have a decent stun (2s) with 3s channeling time (0.5s for the meteor to land also)then they buffed it to 2s channel so it was kind of good on offlaners and some mids who could set it up, like magnus and axe, but they were building it too often so they turned the stun into a meme.honestly right now it's a stat stick more than anything
>>574639661I'll believe it when I hear Slark say he tells Tresdin to put some shrimp on da barbie.
>>574640449Now its an upgrade for Kaya, a cheap one that casters can get to hit buildings. It also makes the space it/Kaya takes up more worth it.When it was introduced it was just its own item and OD used it to autowin games in shitter brackets other than that it was a meme hence why it was called memehammer for years
>support #1 stuns Necro>hit enemy Necro with Nullifier so I can finally kill him uninterrupted>support #2 comes in and FUCKING SAVES HIS ASS BY CASTING EULS ON HIM FOR NO FUCKING REASON>Necro mashes all his buttons, kills the fucking retard support with ult, then runs away with shard+BoTs>retard support does this several more times so the Necro lives every fucking time and turns around fights where we needed to fucking kill him early or try to pick him off>loseHOLY SHIT I AM SO FUCKING MADWHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH SOME PEOPLE??????Is there a way to purge allied tornadoes? Because fucking hell I need a way to purge that shit when my own fucking teammates grief me.
>>574640686>>574640724>>574642449So before it was really good on any mid hero because you got regen from itBut the main benefit hammer has is putting every single tower on a timer, because if you ignore me hammering the tower from trees, that tower will drop sometime soon, while I farm your whole jungle.>>574643042Interesting, can't purge allied cyclones. Nullifier usually beats everything.
>>574643308The Necro had his own Euls so the first time, I didn't understand what was happening. I was shocked and wondered how the fuck he saved himself while the Nullifier was still pulsing and said NULLIFIED over his head.Then I realised it was the fucking retarded fucking moron pos 4 Earth Spirit who rolls in and casts Euls first thing no matter what. And he just wouldn't fucking stop no matter how many times we tell not to do it. Fucking hell, Earth Spirit shitters are so fucking bad. Same level as Pudge shitters.I imagine the reason Nullifier won't purge it is because it only purges enemy buffs and an enemy tornado is considered a debuff. Makes sense. But it's absolutely fucking infuriating I can't do anything about it when I'm griefed.

>>574644636you cared enough to reply
>>574627470>blink firstIm learning enigma, in my experience after the laning phase you are basically crumpled paper with no escape mechanism so if you get caught you die. So you want to be tankier. Drums give good stats for the cost, gives you movement speed and also attack speed so your eidolons can divide and damage towers faster. If you rush blink, you are just hoping that nobody focuses you after jumping in because they will just murder you otherwise.>but easier black hole!Buying a 2k item to do a black hole every 3 minutes sucks balls. At that point of the game you can do that just walking in. Besides, enigma farms fast. You can get drums and boots first to be more durable and then get the blink by pushing and farming jungle before the 20 minute mark.Talking about enigma, people really love black hole.>land a 3-4 people bh in a teamfight>get tipped by your team and the enemy team>miss a black hole>get reported and people steal farm from you from now on

Consider the following: Doom with phylactery / it's upgrade, with a creep ability that is point target and low cooldown?Does it work?
>>5746245351. Free farm, Devour is free net worth and level acceleration. A bit like alchemist you can build literally anything because you swim in gold2. Doom disables all healing and regen. Its more important than the silence part, it's a targeted counter to any hero that relies on living forever (Alch, morph, etc.)3. In an absolute pinch it can be used to disable an annoying spell caster to remove them from the fight while you fight the rest of the team 4v55. Outside of this your job in fights is to just walk straight at the enemy team with scorched earth active and stay alive so you can keep applying your E on whoever needs to die.
Why the fuck can't I recycle or delete all these Monster Hunter stickers? I want to clean up my inventory a bit.

>>574624535He's the offlaner with the biggest damage output right now alongside Night StalkerLane stomper if you're against a melee carryUse Doom on their most useful teamfight hero and they're basically fighting 4v5 Eventually their cores will go out of their way to get Linkens which you counter by buying Aghs, where you basically just run at their most useful teamfight hero. Just try him out, do the Radiance build rather than the outdated Midas Drums build. He's one of those heroes though that if you don't come out ahead of your lane becomes kinda whack because you can't jungle that well compared to your Axe/Centaur etc. You really need a good lane with him and a NW advantage, if you're trailing from behind he kinda becomes useless

Good boi here. AMA.

>>574664324Also costs a lot for proper results
>>574660642people who like dota in general are third worlders without money to commission art and wouldnt pay for it anyway, which is why AI just took over whatever dota art left is made.and dota isn't popular enough for good artists to draw it.
>>574664821dota gets art but it's all garbage westerners because dota has no appeal in the easteven deadlock is more popular in japan
We NEED to stop gatekeeping this game. "Muh skill gap" this, "can't communicate" that. That's literally just coded language for xenophobia. These third worlders are the heart and soul of Dota's global community. They play through conditions that would make you cry and uninstall after one turbo game. Their creativity in the jungle, their unorthodox builds born from necessity, their unbreakable spirit? Beautiful. Meanwhile, you cry about "smurf detection" when a 14-year-old from the Philippines carries your 2k ass. The game belongs to everyone, not just those lucky enough to be born in countries with good infrastructure.
you know what the real cultural shift in dota was?you used to try to torment the enemy team, nudota is all about tormenting your team.

Are Urn and its upgrades bugged or am I misunderstanding how they work? I thought that if 1 hero has Vessel/Distiller and 1 hero has normal Urn both heroes get the charges, but if 2 heroes have Vessel/Distiller, only the closest hero to the dead enemy gets the charge?In my game today 2 heroes on my team had Vessels and both got charges for every kill.

Check your freelance artists platform, you might be in for a treat for some funny penny change>AI just took over whatever dota art left is madeThis is a fucking travesty and all it leads to is future inbred "art" made by training AI on AI-generated stuff
>>574676764they changed how urns work when they introduced the new ones and now all of them get charges. regardless of who is closest. so buying multiple urns is not griefing, as long as they are not the same.
>>574678816shut the fuck up you autist
>>574680875spirit vessel isnt supposed to do that
>>574679724you definitely are a minority because nobody ever commissions dota art. most settle for ai slop. check the dota 2 community artwork section in steam.
>>574680875So are you saying that Vessel or Distiller straight up lies on its Alt-Description?
>>574680875My understanding was >>574680967 but in my game earlier today 2 allies had Spirit Vessels and both got charges on them. I thought it was just Vessel/Distiller + Urn, not Vessel/Distiller + Vessel/Distiller.
>>574681056the dota 2 tooltips are an awful source of information full of typos and outdated mechanics. so its not entirely impossible. most work on this game is done by indian interns.
>>574681001>Calls someone a minority >check the dota 2 community artwork section in steam.What lonely fucker actually uses the Steam community tab?
>>574681098tested in demo and 3 heroes got 2 spirit vessel (from 0) charges off one kill
>>574681001What cursed place, fuuuck
>>574681180the only people who play dota 2 because twitter or reddit definitely doesnt have dota 2 art that I know of.
>>574681190I tried it in demo too and got the same result, but thought maybe it's bugged in demo and checked the replay of a game played earlier today (ranked) and it was the same, so it's not a demo thing.>>574681056So it's really bugged? The description says only the closest hero should get it.
>>574680938COWARD WONT 1V1 ME HAHAHAH
>>574681425shut the fuck up you autist
>>574681403its not bugged retard, holy shit. everyone getting charges is intended. it was stated in a balance patch a long time ago. are you stupid? are you that furry crusader? they just didnt have the indian update the tooltips.
>>574681403clearly buggedprobably already reportedhttps://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota2-Gameplay/issues

>>574681615Vessel isn't supposed to share charges too genius, actually follow the conversation
>>574681813pretty silly that pros werent abusing this during ewc
>>574681615>retard>stupid>furryAll those insults and you can't even read.
>>574681995you are all of those combined.
i m pretty much out of role queue tokens so i guess i gotta stop playing pos 1. Interesting run though, I think. Definitely learned a lot. Thing I need to improve on is knowing when to stop farming to help in team fights because I can't always predict how a fight will go, I usually stay out of it because i don't want to die.But that tilts my teammates usually.
>>574681978Doubt it's that big of a deal, is it really worth another ~3k investment when you usually only buy it to focus down one person who has healing
>>574644536There is nothing wrong with facets, Dota just has 128 heroes and is 13 years old, so it can't be balanced properly, because facets just give you more hero per hero.Deadlock could use the system, though.
>>574650067I report smurfs on both the enemy team AND my own, btw.

>>574687282HUH?????? i mean... ill take it thats another 10 rerolls for me
>>574678738Just go into a demo sweet CM poster? Then bend over.
>>574679724Excellent post.
well i got nothing good from that, time for round 2 i guess
>>574682076You should be front lining once you have farm and guiding your team to targets.Try adapting your builds more with 1-2 2K items instead of just going straight to BKB unless you really need it. Feel like you should be farming faster though in general?At least you aren't trying to go magic Luna lol.
>>574688306I think they give you candy based on player ID, because I haven't seen a single green nut or spring in my candy inventory yet.
this is not a good sign bros.....
>>574656113>Call it puppey>draws saksa
>>574687078They should just give Lina's a little fire cat to mirror CM's ice dog. Maybe touch up the flame particle on the hair a little. It's a pretty tasteful arcana even if it's not the flashiest.Techies is just unsalvageable. It was created for a character that no longer exists.>>574688642It's a nice looking Rubick set tho
>>574688458>going straight to BKB unless you really need it.shut the fuck up forever retard. all the lost games on that image were lost because he got bkb after 30 minutes
>>574688642>>574688306>>574687909well shit bros... gaben just teased my nuts with that 10x carnival coin, 20 rerolls and not a single arcanaalso they should really make it so that the unpurchasable sets like collector's cache should be obtainable through this so even if its not an arcana at least its still a collector's cache set
>>574689148greedy fuck. you could have just bought some nice looking sets with all that candy

Patch today, surely they just ran out of time last week and so will release it first thing this one
Mason timed me out for 5 days what a fucking FAGGOT.
>>574686507I really like going something like axe razor bristle fundying viper, build tanky shit and just go live under their tower and make their life miserable. Maxing W on tide and getting first item Vanguard and just slapping them over the head with a fish. What are they gonna do? Call for help? Something like brood or techies also. Meepo, is basicly a one man team fight.Natures prophet and shit like lycan and beastmaster kind of can do the same thing with just hitting creeps and buildings and really if you never really see your team but can hit towers who cares
Deadlock won't hit the sustained player counts of Dota, but considering it is more weighted towards the civilized world, we can hope for a side effect where it makes Dota less culturally deadMaybe
>>574686292The finger on the monkey's paw will curl. Mark my words.
>>574690532>fundyingkek>first item Vanguard and just slapping them over the head with a fishI forgot about that item
>>574686292It's just going to be regular Pugna with a voice filter.Automaton Bristleback doesn't even have a change in personality like in the event story. He's the exact same. All the rest will be no different.

>>574679724I like this style, whom did you commission for this? Fuck AI indians.
>>574688458Yeah i was watching a smurf video, and luna plays more aggresive after manta, which i haven't been doing.
Why is manta so important on lancer? What if I just go vlads and diffusal?
>>574692597Illusions don't mana burn with Diffusal anymore. Buy Bloodthorn for damage.
>>5746925970/10 bait
>>574686507If you pick offlane then never play with your team you're losing the game retard. if you dont wan't to rotate or sit on a rune or open a tower just play pos1
I don't know if I should share this or not, but back in 2015 I ran into mason in a Buc-ee's gas station at like 2am in the morning. I was drunk, and had around 17 miller lites earlier and a massive chipotle burrito that was about to come out of my rear end along with the beer.Anyways, I was like "yo mason, is that you?" and he laughed and said yeah. Anyways, I had to rush into the bathroom and for some reason he followed me in, I thought he just had to go too. The burrito and beer was about to come out and I rushed to the toilet just in time. It was a disgusting #2, all liquidy and sprayed everywhere.As I started wiping my ass, I heard a knock on the bathroom stall and to my astonishment it was mason. He said "hey man, don't worry about wiping, I got you". I just said "um, okay" and then mason walked in and started cleaning my asshole with his tongue. Wow, he went to work hard. There were even a few bits of undigested corn caught in my ass hair that he gobbled down. After he was done, he just said "peace" and walked on out. I wiped my ass one more time for good measure, and there wasn't even the slightest bit of brown. Mason vaccumed and steam cleaned every last spot with his mouth, I've never seen anything like that in my life before, ever.

>>574697872You stopped making sense after "blink". If you're going to the offlane to get farm, you're playing to lose. Get your head right.
>>574698007what you mean uncofflaners farm nowadays
>>574698101Farm heroes not creeps. If you can't get hook kills without a blink you don't deserve farm.
>>574698101Yes, nephew. If they win the lane. IF.What's your plan when you meet a non-token-farming-so-they're-force-to-play support, and they just gape you and your pos 4, which you're praying isn't griefing you? i.e. me "Just win lmao 4Head"? That's not happening, you're feeding my Ursa. And now with token changes, I don't need to farm tokens, anymore. I can go all in on Pos 5 and 4.

>he has a Twitter, tooGreat.
>stalking losers outside of dota/4chanNow you guys are being pathetic schizos.
>>574700920>8m agoPretty sure he posted that himself.
>>574700031Oh no no no no this guy isnt a meme hes real lmfao
pretty sick play
He posted a gif of him photoshopping his face with a bunch of anime girls LMFAO. It's actually him, look at >>574593841
>>574701185You know what the worst part is of him NOT actually being 1k MMR and having a 52% winrate? Barring some kind of freak roadblock, when he reaches Divine, this general will be completely unusable.
>>574701740Why are you acting like a different person? it's obviously you breh
>>574701501Clearly not him.
>>574700031
>yfw augar gets to TI before you/d2g/ would seethe.
hard to say when someone is being retarded or if they are actually trying to get e-stalked
Idk I'm just trying to put out feelers at this point. I don't think anyone would watch me stream to Immortal.
>>574701828No, niggerfaggot. Stop trying.Not sure what would be worse - hardstuck Ancient whining, or account buyers in Divine whining.>>574702105>they have a Twitter>their dotabuff is public>they keep posting their matchesBoth. The answer is both. At least he's on US West, not East, so I doubt I'll meet him.
what do i do with 2 months of dota+
>>574702402enjoy a better quality of life.
>>574702402Find a guild and farm tokens
i regret looking at that twitter, the guy is actually sick in the head.
>>574702402Collect free MMR from Avoiding morons.
/d2g/, I'm eepy... tell me a bedtime story.
>>574703363one day valve started a country and it was greatlots of people moved there despite the stipulation that you had to have a petthen valve decided that every year a competition would be held where the best pets of the nation faced off in bloodsportthe loser of the tournament one pet at random would be killed unless the community paid them enough money to spare its life for their contribution the citizens received household goodsyear after year this went on, with valve receiving enough money to spare the poor pet's life and the community enjoying their household goodsthen suddenly valve decided that they had enough with the farce and changed the year eventinstead of paying to receive both the household goods and spare the pet's life valve would allow the community to contribute to two separate fundscontributions to one fund gave the household goods in exchangethe other fund spared the random pet's lifethe community happily gave their money in exchange for the household goods but not enough money to spare the pet's lifevalve kills the petthe chosen pet's family then receives a new pet for their sacrifice as a rewardthis is where we are now in dota2you must chose whether you are alright living under valve's tyranny knowing your pet could be the next to be sacrificed or to move out of the country and start a new life else where
>>574663806your last successful report was 2024?I can't go a single day without at least one successful report.
>>574704116This isn't wholesome and soothing. This would keep me up at night.
>>574690634don't care still maining Deadlock and Dota is just a side piece.
>>574702026what pisses me off most about this faggot is that he lives in my state.
>>574705301Your state?>CaliforniaPfft, of course it is.
>>574705376Our state, comrade. Commiefornia. With my $5 a gallon gasoline.
>>574705601Keep my ideology out your fucking mouth, shitlib.
>>574705636This seems off-topic chat. How does this relate to dota 2?
>>574705601you wish gas was only $5 here.

>>574708110HOODWINK ANNOUNCER PACK, PLEASEher voice is pure sex
>>574708508The guy equivalent of fawning over a British accent.
>>574708508I was wondering why they didn't do a Ringmaster one, everyone likes John de Lancie and he's a showmaster so it makes sense for him to be overseeing the game
>>574708782What does Cogliacci even mean? A play on the word Pagliacci?
>>574709461Yes.
>>574709461I don't know, it just sounds italian enough and has cog in it I guess
>>574709559Yeah but what does it mean?
>>574708782Oh, I get it now. Cog. Cogs. Like in the machines.God, I'm dumb.
>>574709643Good lord. I hope you play Dota better.
>>574709760tbf the g in that construction for Italian would be silent.
>Cogliacci>wants to summon Eldritch abominations>runs contrary to Ringmaster's plans>and have a thousand automatons>all of which will be evil, because the material comes from one of the seven hell's (thanks Tinker)Well, I know who the villain of the event will be.>>574710062Ringmaster's name is COgliostro. As in Alessandro di CAgliostro.
>>574682883yea i love having to pick between 2 options and one has a 40% win rate and the other has a 60% im totally going with the 40% win rate one cuz i love experimenting and losing and griefing myself and my team c//^_^
>>574709461
>>574710410Deadlock is newer, and has fewer heroes. Balancing should be easier.Plus, I think it's mechanically easier. Just have heroes specialize into Weapon Damage or Spirit Power or somesuch. I don't have access to Deadlock, yet.
>>574710675>deadlock>mechanically easierlol!
Deadlock is NOT EASY. It's movement slop and makes my wrist hurt.
https://www.dotabuff.com/players/75944374
>>574710928I'm 7k dota, but emissary in Deadlock. That game is mega sweaty.
>>574711057>Edwin VanCleefBased. I miss Hearthstone. 2016-2017 was peak.
>>574710870Yes. MECHANICALLY, I don't see anything in the items descriptions or stats that is on par with Dota 2. There is still Pure damage, but that's about it. No multiple stats. No HP removal. No arbitrary "BKB piercing". I assume Colossus is the game's BKB?The difficulty is in the twitch reflexes, not a knowledge check. Although I'm sure there will be plenty of that, too.
>>574711151I'm Divine/Ascendant.but I'm taking a break from Deadlock waiting for the patch and to reach Immortal.I took 8 years off dota between these patches, and my mmr back then was 5k and is now over 5k.
>>574711427in dota the quickest way to move somewhere is to right click there. a single input.there are places in deadlock you can't even reach with a single input, assuming holding 'W' is only counted once.no, colossus is not bkb, unstoppable is.I don't know what else you mean with your post because most of the rest of it is wrong and it's incoherent.
>>574711468>7.00 was 10 years agoAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>574711710You took offence to me pointing out that Deadlock is simplified from Dota, and are now sperging out about it. Even though it's a reasonable sacrifice as Deadlock is more about movement than Dota.it's fine. If you weren't severely autistic and didn't have a fragile ego, you wouldn't be here.Imagine Deadlock introducing Str-Agi-Int and having various damage and reduction stats scale off of them. And then adding a Timbersaw's Whirling Death equivalent, that fucks extra hard on Str heroes. Oof.
>>574712335I'm not offended you're just a retard and don't know how to use brevity in your posts, or make a coherent point.agi is gun, str is vit, int is spirit.there is hp% damages.
>You've smelted everything the ticket smelter can currently createwhat now dotards
>>574712619Now you're making me worry. You called me a retard, then proceeded to make a false equivalence. You DO know that base stats in Dota affect multiple things at once, right?
>>574713334cope. seethe. dilate.
>>574713084Just keep playing in preparation for next act? It openly tells you that the next unlock is 2 Stars.
>>574713872Yes, I know there are per Boon bonuses. But you DO know that extra Str gives extra regen, on top of health, right? Agi gives armor? You don't need to be offended by facts.Also, what is this? "Non-Combat Regen"? Deadlock gives out innate Tranquil Boots?Wait, Deadlock merged Gold with Exp? How does that work? Can you lose "Boons" when you buy items?
LIVE
Where can I cash out a Courier worth thousands.This is a genuine question. I have not played in a decade and could use the money to help with college.
>>574714516I never mentioned boons. those are levels. when you buy ring of regen, because it's a green item, you get extra hp from it too.no, you don't lose boons from buying items.
>>574705079I reckon 95% of people that play both do the reverse.
>>574714980your courier ain't worth shit. go ask google obviously retard.
>>574714980which courier is it
>>574689071???The main reason you get a bkb is to either counter something that would kill you. Or to pop it and murder someone without being stopped.If you don't have the damage to kill someone or another item may suffice, then you don't need the BKB yet.Entirely depends on the match.
>>574715009Ah, "Vitality Investment". It's sort of like an attribute, and a way to ensure some heroes get more out of certain items than others. But it's more like Dragon Lance and items that give two different bonuses to melee and ranged.But everybody in Deadlock is both Ranged and Melee, aren't they?
>>574714516I'll never understand the blind hatred for Deadlock. Playing it requires the deep knowledge of DOTA while needing the mechanical skills of a TF2 player. >It's not as deep as DOTA (yet) DOTA wasn't that complex when it launched in 2013. It took time to overcomplicate the sandbox with more unique jungle camps, Aghs for every hero, a bigger map, neutral items, universal heroes and etc. Give Deadlock like 5 years and that shit will be just as complicated as DOTA was in 2019.
>>574716064>blind hatredhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEu9P6vDxsECalm down. I don't hate Deadlock, I don't play Deadlock, because I don't have it, yet. I will. Don't worry. My stating that Deadlock is less complex than Dota is a statement of fact, and carries no hatred or judgement behind it. You're taking things too personally. In fact, I encourage Deadlock being less complex. Fucking imagine trying to play Dota, while trying to click domes. Shit would be the biggest casual filter since GTFO.
>>574707028Lina arcana has been long overdue a rework.
>>574716468ok but every time you try to use something from dota that's "more complex" it already exists in deadlock.
>>574716767A variation of it. A watered down variation. And that's a good thing. IceFr- I mean, Yoshi has a chance to create something from scratch, unbound by the fucking WC3 engine. Maybe you will get to have a game with items that aren't coded as awfully as Linken's Sphere. Or constant bullshit exceptions to game winning plays you have to memorize.Normies still won't like it, probably, because "stun mechanics in shooters" will forever make them upset.
>>574717119hero shooters are more popular than tactical shooters though.
>>574717187One look at the skins they sell should tell you exactly who they're popular with, and why.
>>574611185>that pose
>>574716468Fair fair. >Fucking imagine trying to play Dota, while trying to click domes.Bro, shit was crazy when I first played the alpha. You had to actually last hit the creeps too. Now, it's just the souls when they die. I think it's a good game and a good ass sequel to DOTA. If they want causals, I think they need a good PvE mode that will allow people to play the heroes in a low stress environment like Aghs Lab. I think it will find its audience by people wanting something more autistic than Overwatch or Rivals. I play like 10 games every 6 months because the art style is that good. But uninstall because fuck is it mechanically dense. If you want to play it, I'm sure the VG here or Discord can slide you an invite easy.
>>574717743fat.
Err lol where is the patch
>He is never gonna host TI againWhy is the world so cruel bros...
>>574718349they all got fat and one trooned out.fucking embarassing.
>>574718336what made you think there would be a patch
>>574718336dont worry about the patch valve is cooking up something 8.00>>574718349so much going on here idk where to even start
I like how I get punished because the game is nearly 1-20 at 10 mins with the enemy perfect comboing my team even after swapping lanes, the team starts bitching each other out and demoralizing, and I decided to spare everyone thirty minutes to their life by ditching.It's not like I fucked an evenly matched 35min game by turning it into 4v5. The match was already over and everyone knew it. Add a fucking Concede function ffs.
>>5747189418.00 >game deleted for ceremonial purposes go play Deadlock
>>574718758TI is coming up, the EWC is over, it's been longer than it was between 7.40 and 7.41 and it has also been longer than between 7.41c and d relatively, they OWE us

>>574721240I hear LoL classic players are getting banned for playing things that are off meta
why dont we get dota classic (that isnt a russian keylogging crypto miner)
>>574723972because no one actually wants a dota classic other then a very small amount of people dota is a better game now then how it was before

I played like shit tonight, but it wasn't shitty enough to not win the games.I have a headache now.
>>574727423Swimsuit arcana with animations where she's constantly adjusting it to keep her secret hidden.
>>574728246Yes, fucktard. Facets in Deadlock should be easier to balance, because it is a newer game. The huge divides in pick and winrates should be easier to avoid.Except maybe facets that make your hero specialize in melee damage.While in Dota, a decade of game design and meta changes makes it difficult to even start to design facets. How do you even change a hero like Void?
