Bricked, I copied one of the anon fantasy and I bad roll everything. I just want to get the desert terrain to complete my set.
I would like to remind you once again that a Pugna persona has been confirmed for the 2nd act of Clownfall.
>>578692395>almost triple your points>86ththese recalculated results had better be good
>>578692696Yes, an automaton Pugna, not loli Pugna
>>578692840no...
>92th percentileI wanted 95...Fuck you liquid.
>>578693008yes anon... you know it in your heart to be true
The foid left (/d2g/ scared xim/xer off). Sad, but it was sus that they'd come here to find friends and not plebbit or x, or whatever the kids are using today.
>>578693248wtf are you talking about
>>578691832So then shouldn't the lane the most concerned with last hitting buy the last hitting item to give them the edge in last hitting?
>>578694147Current year Quelling Blade is garbage.Back in the day it used to give +% extra damage on creeps and shit. That was automatically worth the money. Now it's like, +6 damage max so who gives a shit? You know what else gives +6 damage? Circlets and Iron Branches and they come with extra stats. Midlaners will be stuffed full of Iron Branches so they're not missing out.
>>578694759so its a vestigial battlefury component that no one should buy?
>>578692075>99th percentile>98th>97th>claim rewards button appears (96th)>still can't claimSTOP THE COUNT
>>578695230battlefury is pretty ass in general this patch
>>578695230It's about marginal gains.You have 6 slots and 600 gold. You have to pick and choose what to put in there. Midlaners will want stats. They want the extra STR and HP, they want the extra 10 mana per INT, they want the extra AS per AGI. So if you want to forego two Iron Branches for a 100 gold Quelling Blade, you'd better be getting enough out of it to make it worth it. And that's just for stats. What if you want to show up to lane with 6 Tangoes instead of 3? That's 90 gold so you have to choose if you want +6 damage on creeps (not heroes) vs regen. What if you want to save the 100 gold for a faster Bottle?Everything is a trade-off. You'll have to decide what's better for you and your priorities (and whether or not it works out overall).
i also made salveshttps://files.catbox.moe/8cwb16.mp4and clarity potions but they're in the same bottles so it's really not very cool and also they used a lot of moscato and sprite and they smelled really bad like farts so im never using that recipe againok im done now
>dropped to p96its OVER...
>>578684556what state are you in, pastry Anon?
LONE DRUID
ok i didn't get my stupid terrain, can i get dark carnival 2?
lmao i lost to an AI profile pic jeet.
remember pocket riki
>d-dude they will remove bots it's good for your percentiles>drops almost 5% from 99WTF are these retards smoking?removing bots is good if they're in the top 1500, it's bad if you remove the losing bots
>>578698102I get so annoyed every time I see this guy. Shit looks so stupid. I wish i could avoid people on enemy teams.
FUCKKK I DROPED TO 90TH PERCENTILE
mason…
>>578698905Okay this shit is really retarded. WHY are they even showiing a number? Dont give ppl false hope lmao. It says 99th for me it better not fucking drop. like how retarded are they that they intended to rug pull 1000s of people?
what's up dotards
>>578698102played with this nigger before and he totally sucked shit, sorry he got his designated agent sponsored victory anon
>Ame>Topson>Ws>Xinq>Sneykingthis would be funny
>nobody picked venocancerwhat's wrong with my boy?
just woke up to see myself be 94th percentile after being in the 95th the entire weekend FUCK
>>578699386Pretty sure the pudge with 21 deaths was the agent. Or the feeding clock or underlord. So many agents actually.
>>578701440Veno is a grief pick. All roles.
>>578700827How in the fuck would Topson even communicate with them. He can barely speak cogent English.
>>578701440He's too much fun, which is the antithesis of pro dota.
>>578701440The Poison Sting passive is just extremely bad. It's cucked to a point where you have to be almost lvl 25 to get the same DPS and duration as rank 4 ability from before. You farm slower and your laning is weaker.The only good thing about the hero is that you can sometimes spread Essence Distiller or Vessel to multiple units with your ult.
I love opening every game with gl hf free palestine, it brings zionists out of the woodwork for the rest of the game to bash 8/10 games and tilts them immediately
>log in>98th percentile>immediately changes to 99thI am right on the edge between 99 and 98 with 21238 points.
>>578703162mid is a role where you dont need heavy communication
Why are retards acting like the points/percentile numbers are final? Last year it wasn't sorted until the very last day when everything was calculated. I STILL haven't even had my playoff fantasy points added to my point total, and last year it wasn't added until to the very last day.
>>578704441current percentile is a preview of final result
>>578703624id be hopeful with my high 19 if they would EVER FUCKING GET TO MEI CANT STAND SEEING 85% EVERY TIME I LOGAAAAAAAAA
n0tail recently went on record and said that new dota2 TI players are better than they ever were, but this is factually wrong and OG back in TI8/TI9 played against the best dota2 players that will ever exist, and won. Why would n0tail say that current dota2 TI players are better? Is he just being nice?
>>578704576You better hope not, as my total score is projected to be 22.5k-23k while it's "previewing" my percentile as only 92nd ...so a lot of people in this thread are going to be disappointed if my previewed percentile is remotely accurate.
>>578705005he became a pussy, he doesnt even try to play the game and he has all the time and money in the world to try and play qualifier with many of his high skill friendsdota2 is simply different now than how it used to be and the new players adapted while he doesnt even want to try to that's why he thinks they are better
>>578705005He's being objective.
>>578705285your percentile simple hasnt been updated yet while my gets updated every so oftenI was 87th yesterday before the updating
>>578705442>your percentile simple hasn't been updated yetHence the point of my original post.
I want to know what kind of made up fantasy world Dota 2 Powerpoints is living in where he can say things like "Venomancer can lock off the enemy triangle to farm for himself and they can't stop you" with a straight face and earnestness in his voiceLike that's not embellishment for storytelling that's just hallucinogenic drug use
>>578705680all ti teams had a gentlemans agreement to not pick veno
somebody post what mason accidentally leaked causing him to immediately end his stream
is this a viable viper build or am i just a special kind of retard
>>578705680I literally forgot Venomancer existed as a character. Why hasn't anyone been picking him lately? I remember a decade he ago that he was fun.
>>578706271He doesn't do anything
>won my BO3 for the dayAnd i will NOT be queuing another
Do you have two dota2 accounts, one for experimental stuff that might result in defeats, and one to min/max to ensure you keep your stats up?
>>578706529no, the game is not that serious
do dotaplus subscriptions appear on candyworks? I kinda do what to level up same badges and gain some voicelines but my religion prevents me from giving money to subscription based services
>>578706882just buy it, it's worth it
>>578700827think topson found out having kids fucking sucks lmao
What happened to mason? Why's he such a low mmr now despite playing dota 2 fulltime?
>>578707064that's why poopey never retired, he has like 2 kids or smth, he travels to lans to get away from his family
>>578707053like I said I belong to the religion of the latter-day-goiyms, one of our main tenants is not signing up for any sort of subscription based service
>>578707196he was always a shit player that played in a deserted server, he could only be high mmr playing against south americans that had 150ms ping disadvantagemason is literally a 5k players in eu servers when playing his best
>>578707286you can buy x months without recurrent payment
>>578706256>vessel viperI'm guessing the logic is you stack it with poison attack? but is the damage really worth 2k gold?
>>578706256You either need to tank on viper or DPS on viper. Your build is utility which isn't for the hero. If you want to be a disabling menace, build items like scepter, crozier, and shivas and max W first.
>>578707196he tanks accounts to the point of no return (bh score wise), then whines in chat about how valve killed dota beacause everyone is afraid to speak. Goes on a 1 week vacation. Comes back with a brand new 12k bh score immortal account. Straight to being insanely toxic in pubs and the cycle will repeat again.
>>578706271slow and squishy without hard cc or anything defensivethe hero just slows and does dotsveno is actually annoying and deals a lot of dmg in longer fights if he doesn't die, but still a hard sell compared to supports with abilities that will always be useful.
>>578707196mentally ill (played dota for 15+ years)tragic really
>>578706256>Fighting 9.1So you build Urn and just fuck around in the early game... I don't know how viable that is but it sounds fun, Urn + Poison attack sounds disgustingly cheesy as long as you're getting Urn charges
>>578706256seems fine but kaya and yasha doesn't seem worth it
>>578703226buying shard and flooding the battlefield with sneks is fun!
>>578707196true american doturd
>>578707064>topson found out having kids sucks>collapse abandoned his girl after first ti win because she wanted him to be her babies daddykek
>safe lane pick NP carry>seethes at me for not saving him when he fucking explodes to a real carry
was ppd too toxic or were americans just too thin skinned and non confrontational?
>>578710253https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLOsM4apiI4
is cogliacci weyoun from ds9? wtf
>>578710604https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001062/Looks like.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=la6_cv1mo9sHis voice sounded familiar to me, too.
its always fun to play pudge when the game reaches the state enemy team just dissapears around you and as long as you have rot on you can't lose anymore.
>>578707703Valve should just ban him, it would be beneficial for all parties. Also would be funny as fuck to watch how he desperately tries to stream on every platform with new accounts getting banned after few games and see who will last longer.
remember when dota 2 had announcements during tournaments?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDymLWfp_uA
>Earn 300 Dota+ Shards for every 1,000 points>click claim now>have to click it again a gazillion timesWTF IS THIS?
I want to have a powerful PC so badly bros...>get a jobNo I'm scared
>>578711784this anon doesn't understand dopamine. you hear more sound effects that way.
>>578711884but this game functions just fine with processor thats 10 years old. or are you planning quitting dota?
>>578712057lowest settings 60% render 20 fps isn't "just fine"
>>578711884the 5800x3d is available again and is basically all you'll ever need for 240+ fps on dota foreveruses ddr4 too which is much cheaper
>>578710253I didn't think he was >that toxic desu, been following him since the HoN daysHe was confident and outspoken, but most of NA had that kind of arrogance back in the dayCouldn't really blame the guy, he was practically thrusted into the best team of NA and they dominated that scene from day 1Now Kyle was the retard who didn't do much in dota2 except held back his brother from achieving greatness, having a huge egohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUYQAZEzyWg
how2fix dota 2>all heroes now gain a permanent 7th weapon item slot>only items from weapon category can go here>items in weapon slot gain 50% bonus if the equipped item matches your main attribute (determined by the highest attribute bonus the weapon grants)>items that provide raw damage/no attribute bonus have 20% bonus in weapon slot
>>578712126I have a laptop so I can't upgrade one thing, I would have to get an entire rig
>>578712243that's what I mean, if u're going to build a system build it around the 5800x3d because the platform is much cheaper than the newer ones and it's enough for dota 2 forever probablylaptops are not for gaming
>>578712104dude I have i5-8400 and game doesn't dip below 60fps. those are the kind of processor you find in dumpster or for 30 dollars on ebay. pc parts are fucking bonkers prices yes but for dota you can build a machine for a cost of a trip to local dumpster or flea market. trust me I know, all these parts are second hand and nearing 10 years of age.
>>578712592I have literally zero moneyI don't have "buy a computer for $300" money, I have zero money.
>>578712468 (me)if you're really that desperate you can buy those old dell optiplex for >$100 and add a RX 6600 and that'll do dota 144+ fps stable probably
i just played a medusa game, mostly did nothing the game in one fight and then we had a big fight for rosh we kind of won, and i simply used aegis pushed hg with 1min left timer on it, took tier 3, barack(the two tier 2 towers on the side lanes were still alive) tier 4 and then just clicked down the ancient without even losing aegistldr: i a clicked enemy ancient
>>578712703well that part needs some serious work and not just because of dota. sorry to hear your situation is that bad.
>>578712703show off your boypussy to /d2g/. we might like it, and shower you with gifts.
I do freelance graphic design. I think I make $200 a year now lmao. AI pretty much killed everything for me. Thank God for NEET bucks.
>>578711224they dont do that anymore even henry just gets to stream on twitch nowdays
>>578713607wouldn't they be better off selling out on kick lmao
>>578713732only penoys and south americans watch kick, mason and henry would just kill their streams moving (especially now since they dont hand out kick deals anymore)
it's insane that people still watch gaming streams in 2026, I thought that fad was dead
>>578714248i'm pretty sure most of masons viewers are hues
noone throwing another coach under the bus
yawar is streaming, finally a not-so-bad player
>>578715045I thought he was doing daytrading like every other retired na player
>>578715094they all probably play dota for fun, he's still 7500 mmr, idk what he did with his life and dont really care desu
has anyone gone up a percentile?
>>578714747these monkeys should get a job, they annoy every single na streamer
>>578715045iannihilate has been streaming
>>578715419trash player
>>578712703you could make $200 a month just writing erotica commissions
>>578715484>watches yawar
Im done logging in, I'll wait until the 27th for my drow hat
Are there any Largo mains that have any tips or cool tech? I've been having a lot of fun with him. I try to max his 3 sometimes when I have good casters on my team, but it doesn't feel as strong as the numbers make it look.
>>578712852thats normal medusa gameplay, you farm for 40 minutes and then accidentially kill like 3 guys
imagine how many people ephey fucked in the ti afterparty while cuckqva stayed in germany...
Not locking in with ame
>>578717129brehs...
>>578713123I feel you dotard web dev is also looking rough job openings are scarce now even thought to pivot to data science but shit is also grim
>>578716462was literally a 40mins and 2 second game
>>578717129>playing with uncme
>>578717550also reached archon 5, i can feel legenddddddonly 5 screenshot since the archon 4 one with 238
most bots place below the mean because they are doing random shit so wouldn't banning fantasy bots bring everyone's percentiles down lol
>>578717905no way they look through all accounts man, they just look through the top 1500 and then w/e
if I get 95th+ I'll have 5 months of dotaplus to use
>ti3 alliance>ti8 og>last year falconsevery green TI was won by a team of annoying faggots
>>578717905>fantasy botswhat? for what purpose? rewards are non-tradable/marketable/giftable
Wraith king needs a shard that turns his skeletons into skeleton archers so they can deal damage more efficiently in fights without dying to cleave or an errant AoE spell and without body blocking you
i got a month of dota+ gifted by a friend when i started so i didnt activate it, its december 2022kind of stupid to not use it, but its a gift and i feel like a nice reminder of that friend who i dont really talk anymore to since he married
>>578718351grim... and we'r estill here playing dota..
>>578712852>i just played a medusa game
>>578718287I guess to sell the whole account esp since the terrain token is involved (people were already selling and buying accounts with immortal gardens on them)
>>578718456Excuse my english i am esl, i meant to say, I played a game of dota2, in which i choose the champ called Medusa. Thank you.
>99>98>97>96>95What the fuck is happening to my percentile???
>redditor A: valve can you add an alternative reward for people who have every terrain>redditor B: selfish asshole, you should be asking them to make the token giftable -.- then you should gift it to me -.-What a stupid fucking website>why were you on thereto see if valve is gonna add something to the token since that's the only place they communicate
>>578718602adjusting, they always do this....
>rumor that next TI will be in Singapore that is fucking stupid, just take it to Seattle again or even canada
>>578718746there will very obviously never be an NA TI ever again muttbro
>>578718641i enjoy using reddit but since they blocked me from using it with old.reddit and no account i am w/e more time i can spend in dotawc3
>>578710054>Carry refuses to buy bkb>Whines that the rest of the team just has to try harded to keep him alive>We fucking lose
>>578717129>Topson and Ame, Tailung got banned just before TI, colorizedhttps://youtu.be/XA1q4UpBdfI
>>578718861>zeus gyro nyx troll rikimy goat
>>578718861>troll picks lose the game>meta picks winmy goat is washed
>/ourgirl/ Lina Inverse (verso ruski) got the predictions right 100%so she's getting invited to next ti??
>>578719394That's a man
>>578718549the question is why you're playing medusa.
Improvement idea for DOTA 2: Introduce headshots. If you click on an enemy hero's head and have your attack hit there, it deals a critical hit, BUT the hitbox is incredibly small.
>>578719635>tfw anon mom-sex talk quotes
>>578719394Was that the sexy older lady with the grandma glasses and long legs?
>>578719593i hate drow and we needed a ranged carry
>>578720480just pick sniper
TOPSONS STREAMIN!!!
>>578720535he is most of the time banned( i looked it up and i had medusa, bb, sniper and tide on my ban list, which made me swap medusa for drow)
>>578704334You need heavy communication once laning is over and you're pushing and teamfighting.
>>578705336>and he has all the time and money in the world to try and play qualifier with many of his high skill friendsHe did, they did. And they got stomped by tier 2 teams.
>>578721649he doesnt actually try to win anything, he's not hungry for winning anymore and might never be again, it's different from just participating
>>578705336>and he has all the time and money in the world to try and playTime yes, money no. He only earned a couple million and he's already blown through it. That's why he sold the team to a crypto scam org.
>>578721703Yeah no shit. He made $10 million+ in 2 years, he never has to work again. All of the OG guys retired after that. Only Topson tried to keep going and got third at TI without them. Ceb is never playing competitively again outside of a qualifier. Jerax and ana have completely quit dota. n0tail is basically just a part time streamer now. None of them need or want to put in work for it because it's not worth it anymore.
BigAddyN0tolerance
>>578721805you dont know any of this, OG was sponsored by red bull, I'm so tired of people talking about other peoples finances like they knew what was going on
>>578718861in what game did he pick gyro?
>>578721879they could be hungry simply by the love of the game and the chance of competing in TI again in a stadium in front of a crowd but they're too lazy, that is lame, they don't love dota as much as they said they did
>>578721927Kind of like how you're talking about other people's finances just with an incorrect take, huh?
>>578722082I didnt talk about money, TI is about dota, not money
>>578721927They were sponsored by Red Bull when they were winning tournaments and before they were caught up in a matchfixing scandal. They haven't won anything in years.
>>578705005I don't think he's being nice, Satanic/Malrine/ATF are all just individually more skilled than the boomers at their peakIt's like how Donk and Zywoo are compared to S1mple/f0rest/getrightOf the TI8/9 OG squads, can you really say they were that much individually better than the other teams? Not really, maybe only Jerax or/and TopsonYou can only play what's in front of you so it's retarded to compare eras anyway>>578722039n0tail has been around for probably more than half his life, between dota, hon and dota 2, i think it's fair that the passion just fizzled out for him
>>578722039ana plays Deadlock now. He hasn't played dota in a couple years. He's done with it. Ceb, Topson and Jerax all have kids now and aren't going to commit to grinding and traveling for a year just to lose in embarassing fashion.
>>578722235ana literally played pubs with topson yesterday
>no announcementdead game
>>578722271That's not the real ana.
>>578722356MY NAGASH HAS A POE SKILL TREE
>>578722215satanic is not more skilled than ramzes in 2017malrine is not more skilled than maybe in 2015atf is not more skilled than most offlaners today, 33 is a better player right now evenjerax, light of heaven, boboka, fy, dj were all more skilled than current pos 4 playersthe thing is dota has changed a lot and the game has a different skillset but OLD dota was HARDER than nudota and required you to do MORE with less gold/resources and the old players did that, and I don't think the new players could do the same, I don't think ATF would have any impact in the offlane if the game reverted to when it was the suicide lane.
With 15160 points, can i hope to at least get the 85% mark?>multiple torm banners on paravision
>>578722607rtz clears all of them
the fact that the offlane is now a second carry lane with absurd farm is the prime example of the heroes of the stormification this game went through, they took something that made dota special, the fact that the sides lines are inherently different and they copied lesser, worse games so it would attract new players (it failed at it)if you have a friend you can queue pos 3 and 4 together and play a carry + strong laner in the offlane all the way to 7k mmr , that's how dumb the game has gotten
>>578722893>offlane>not midOpinion discarded.
unc thinks the players havent evolved lol funny stuff
the game devolved, the players are worse than when the game took more skill to be played.ammar would be a tier 3 offlaner if he had to play offlane in 2014, even bone7 would do better in the suicide line.
>>578723473The game has, I don't think the players have that much. It's not mechanically different than it was 10 year ago, it's just more bloat you have to know.
>>578722607trvke
damn i just had an amazing support who stacked 25 camps in 38 mins, never saw such a good support and still lost as the carry.my dissapointment is immerusable and my day is ruinedi gets its time to go to sleep
I am quiting doto after 27 August, no longer grieved by the cankers, the cancers of doto player base from SEA. >Start playing fun hero, and winning>alchemists hard support >vessel, glimmer, skill-full warding>give drow a scepter >tank and sacrifice >die most battle, team wipe three times>0 kills 7 death>gain 5 commends>1 commend from the opposite team>communication still below over 6000
>>578724540>putting a date on itoh brother this guy stinks
>>578724540>below over 6000hehanyway why you care about com scoremost of the time i just mute all and i have a 10x game experience, pinging and stuff is enough imho
>>578724705August 27 is the date I gain or fail to get the terrain. The last terrain which I have yet to collect, the desert. If I get a purple drow is good too, if I get an aegis I will be pleasantly surprised. And I will quit, like most people after TI. >>578724720Same i don’t even talk, i set communication off, lol they are on mute but somehow my communication score keep dropping. I do spam hero chat when I kill them lol
>>578724921oh, goodluck fren
it's crazy how the midlane used to be the snowballing lane, where you would win it, be lvl 8 by 6 minutes when everyone else was lvl 5/4 and then you'd gank their safelane snowball out of controlin the old offlane you'd play invisible heroes or heroes that just need to be lvl 6 asap to join fights like clock, void (offlane void, not carry void), windrunner and that's basically what you should play in the midlane now, a hero that offers a bit of utility by being a couple of levels ahead, you're not going to snowball and potentially carry the game, you're going to add utility to the team because your 2 levels above everyone else
>>578725349remember when denies gave the denier money and exp, then skillets all cried from being stomped in midfunny times
I'm still seething that they actually choked at grand finalsand yatoro didn't even shave his head
>>578726057deserved for these 2 bitches
>>578726057noone chocked hard on invoker
>>578726130injoker was 1-7 over the playoffs, classic puppey with the retarded picks
>>578726110those are unironically the best players in the team
Percentile status
>>57872649099
nobody says measure ur words anymorenot lindy
>>578726057They gave it their best shot, someone always chokes because TI, the money and glory, they can’t handle it.
How do I counter Muerta? I'm so sick of being unable to do shit to Muerta every time she presses R. Fucking thing lasts longer than BKB so I might as well just give up and leave the fight or something because I can't do shit to her while she right-clicks me down. I miss the old Revenant's Brooch. At least it was useful back then. Now it's like, unless I'm buying a fucking sheepstick or abyssal ahead of time, she's never going to die early without explicitly drafting 500 AoE nukes for it or something like I'm trying to kill Dark Willow but at least you can play around Shadow Realm. Can't do shit when Muerta enters ghost form.

>>578728751she's trash for like 40 mins go invade herif not that go buy aeon and/or bkb and run she's trash without ult
>>578728996What's the point? I go invade, she pops R, and then I just sit there with my dick in my hand waiting to die because I can't do shit about it. If I bait it out she'll go hide in her base and her teammates all show up as a group and I die and/or get chased out so I get no farming done. It's absolutely frustrating. I know theoretically she's useless but so are my teammates. They don't do shit with all the space I make for them. I win a fight, push towers, win lanes, and they just sit in our side of the jungle trying to farm a 40 minute Aghs so Muerta gets to bounce back. It's infuriating.I wish there was some sort of fuck-you counter to that stupid fucking ult that doesn't require useful teammates. I can't go buying Sheepstick first item pos 1 because of some faggot picking Muerta. Orchid/Bloodthorn becomes useless after Muerta gets a BKB and Abyssal assumes she'll die in 3 seconds before mashing the ult button gets her out of dying. And this is all assuming I'd rather disable somebody else with my items instead of the stupid fucking Muerta getting infinite value for existing.
>>578728751>kill her early, harass her like she is a sex offender>nullifierIt’s not hard to lock her down, unless she has bkb, force staff and shadow blade, lothar faggots get dusted.
>pick hoodwink>lose"Are WE the idiots?"
>>578729526Hoodwink get choked by legion commander is the highlight of dark carnival. Never pick furries, they are meant for eating
>>578729383What is Nullifier going to do to Muerta? It's not going to purge her ult.
>>578729954Oh shit her ulti cannot be dispelled. I guess Dagon 5 then lmao
>>578729954Wtf am I saying not Dagon 5 it is heaven’s halberd
>>578729372>Orchid/Bloodthornyou aren't buying this shit for 1 hero bwi if it's good on your pick it's good for picking off her other gay helpers that will help her recoverabyssal also helps bigly to waste her ult time even with bkb-ult on, and if she presses ult to get out of getting gaped then she's already playing on the backfootwasting headspace on bad hypotheticals without considering the good is a waste of energy do what you gotta do
why can I not claim rewards?
>>578732387wait 2 days
>>578722607ATF would just be playing a mid carry (that whole rtz / miracle period) or sidelane carry in old dota anyway

ourgirl Sneaky played dota today
>>578734556who
>>57872649099 (24k points so most likely not true)
>>578734556i thought sneaky trooned out
>>578734758
>>578734390I didn't look before
>>578722607>OLD dota was HARDER than nudota and required you to do MORE with less gold/resourcesmidwit logic
>>578735986He's right though, old dota required skill, knowledge and planning. Nudota is just mindless spam
>99 -> 98stop itSTOP
>>578736604damn, sheever was prettyshe's still a hot milf but we all get older I guess
>>578711767Campo santo here,Nope.
Old dota was objectively easier than nu dota.If it wasn't, how come all the old pros suck ass now? Why hasn't RTZ won every nuTI?
>>578736604He's wrong though, new dota required skill, knowledge and planning. old dota is just mindless spam
rtz wasnt even winning old TIs
arteezy peaked in 2013, that's why, he got worse year after year
dota died when they removed necromicon because reddit cuckpports didn't like it
>>578736721>>578736604Remember bros...
Dota died after they gave everyone a fucking free donkey
dota died when retards stopped progressing their own lives and instead try to live their lives entirely through a video game
I dropped doturd 5 years ago with a 52.64% winrate and 1696 wins. Did I do a good job or is it fucking over?
>>578737842You dropped out, you lost.
>>578737842that's pretty good
>>578706256What kind of play style is this.....
>>578735986>>578736604>>578736907isn't it more like old dota was more punishing?
Oh I see what the problem is. I see why I keep getting AM midlaners and pos5 pudges every game. The post TI tourists that were 5k in 2012 still have their accounts flagged as high mmr, while their current skill level is at about 1k. So now I get heralds in my divine queues. Amazing job to the devs as always.
>>578738050it's called being annoying in the 3k mmr bracket
>>578738147It was more punishing for the enemy, making it easier.
>>578738147Yes>get a kill on lane>side shop an item immediately>enemy has to buy a tp -75-100? gold>ward restock is slower>deward got an added in limit at one point also no gold from dewarding>courier upgrade etc,Losing your lane was crippling now you can fuck off into the 80 camps you have can't defend tower because no aura etc,
>>578738329everyone having more gold makes the game harderbeing poor you're just a melee creep for the enemy to feed from
>>578738329Tp scroll was 125g at some pointalso wards did cost 75g And the side show was necessary because you have 1 courier and usually the mid using it for bottle
>>578738418That's why he said punishing retard shit spiraled harder you could push an advantage on a lane into the mid-game longer
>>578718235Wasn't the theme of last year constellations and shit? How is that green?? It's more ti9 with all the purple
Just buy your own personal courier, you could do this in old dota yet no one did because everyone was bad.
>>578738481im not disagreeing with him
>Play all pick >get pub stomped by a team of five>axe, up, silencer, Riki and WK>no chance to do anything>safe lane 4 13>no support for offlane>hard support and support feed 14 >mid is a meepo>meepo goes alone, dies alone>52 death lol>huh solo queue >no get stompedPeople wonder why doto is such a shit game, everyone is quitting doto, hahahaha
>>578738902just play turbo
>>578706256You know what.... I might try vessel viper just for the heck of it
>>578739019there should be ranked turbo
>>578739019What is the point? Reward is halved. Not even ranked. When a game demand 5 players to be in a team, you get fucked, wonder why player base continues to drops. Win traders in rank. Pub stomp in all pick. Good job, I can quit in peace.
>>578739019turbo games already last longer than normal ranked, no thanks
>>578738902>up, silencerWhat's an upsilencer?
>>578739189Numbers are rising actually, they even managed to recover from that ridiculous 120k drop, average players are at the highest they've been for 10 years, granted a lot of it is people wanting the free items but still. You're probably just low in behaviour score and being matched with similar players as most people who come here to whine are
Does calculating a percentile really require that much computational effort that it takes so long?
>No torrentstorm>Everything has 6k HP>Aghanim is like 60 bonus damage on your ultSo what's the point of kunkka nowdays?I was planning on buying this but the hero seems so shit with no identity. Is he inbetween reworks state?
>>578739582have you considered the fact the system hasn't finished calculating everyones score yet? on my friend list at least there are many people who are clearly missing fantasy score from total.valve shouldn't give out that estimate at all because no matter how big they write that its estimate, people will just ignore it and will get dissapointed if they see it above a treshold and later below it.
>>578739019turbo is even more sweaty than actual ranked, no thanks, i don't want to just pick meta everytime and play versus retarded free 10 slotted supports
>>578734556is that really him now or you're shitposting
>>578739372Io, autocorrect >>578739530I think doto is going to fall soon, it’s not only not rewarding, it requires too much, if they focus on solo players, perfect performance ranking instead of mmr, instead of behaviour score or communication score, think of objective scoring. Instead of fighting the vulgar and the toxic, reward the good. But no, their basic game theory is not met. Items not marketable, bots are still in the game. Cheaters and mmr abuse every bracket. Thinking takes too much effort, ban wave even more. My steam chart got boosted by bots ? Good numbers!
>>578740706It's likely him, he plays Dota every now and then.
I want an Ephey announcement pack
>>578741042Me2 but the announcement is that we are getting married and also that she prefers butt sex
>>5787409012 more weeks and dota will die for real!!!!
>>578739975Yeah I once had to hard carry with jugg, 1.5 second delete button build. Their support was hard carrying too deleting my team, but I was better. Took out weaver and tiny in 1.5 seconds, and won the battle in 30mins. Fucking sweaty
>>578740901Just post your score, I don't have issues playing the game and I play past midnight on EU
>>578741385It’s going to be like a slow cancerous death, more like 2 years.
>>578741781you said that 10 years ago
>>578741835See you next year TI, I only come for the predictions. Won’t predict the fall of my favourite game. 2years is vague.
>>578742059>See you next year TIand the year after that, and the year after that, and after that, and...
dota dies when gaben dies
dota is already dead, from here and onwards things can only get better
Reminder the more LoL is dying, the more its players roam around and cope predicts other things are dying faster.Its retardproof defense mechanism.
>>578743130the thing about lol is that the day it stops making a profit tencent will immediately kill itmeanwhile valve really only invested in counter strike and dota 2 because they wanted f2p games to bring in people that later buy games, same idea with fortnite on epic games storeso dota will essentially live forever even if we get a final patch 20 years from now
>>578743375Its gonna be like tf2, true. As long as storefront exists, at least 20k people will play it daily.
>>578743679I think dota is at least 15 times bigger than tf2, I dont think it would ever go below 300k online
holy fucking shit when is PL getting dumpsteredI'm genuinely considering quitting, running into this every 4 games is the most unenjoyable thing on the planetwhat were they thinking

As Purge's lips met Moxxi's, Moxxi pulled back. "You just kissed me" 'Yes, thank you moxxi for that keen observation'. Purge sees his lane pushing opportunity, and begins to pull down her glimmer cape, witnessing the sheer size of her jungle, with so many creeps stacked within. "I haven't shaved in at least 4 years" 'No shit, Moxxi, thank you for telling me what was immediately obvious to anyone' Purge said, bracing himself for the first time he would go so deep into a jungle without wards.Purge Cringed, but he was unable to help himself. His Aghanim's scepter had just been erected, and he had to make the most of it before Moxxi could build BKB. "My river is wet", Moxxi exclaimed, Though purge was already ankle-deep in bottle fluid. "I'm going to buy an orchid if you don't shut your mouth" he said, Gripping Moxxi's neck and diving the fountain before she could exclaim the obvious again. "OHH GOD I'M STUNNED, ELP, ELP!!" She muffled, as Purge tightened his grip with his hand of midas.

Would Ogre Magi offlane workblink stun, tanky, good right click
>>578746018you will not be the first 0 impact mf to try this
radiance blink ogre magi offlane it iscannot be worse than wraith king
>>578746018There's been some experimentation on the pro level with core Ogre Magi in the past, but not that many games. It is kinda underwhelming, the hero just doesn't have much impact.
>>578746018Magi works as supp chiefly because you cheat your scaling with midas. Technically you could offlane Ogre but you got early midas and youre melee and you cannot threat the opposin pos 1 guy.
>>578746979lvl 4 ignite is enough to force a hero out of lane if they cant dispel
you are a subhuman if you pick ogre
>>578747057His support will feed him a salve or two. Do trust your support to force feed you mangoes?
>>578747164spending 100g on something that doesnt even heal half the damage of ignite isnt sustainable
sometimes i just stack as many particle effects as i can on a hero in the viewer for fun while i'm waiting for a match and then i remember that that's what a lot of people will actually equip on their heroes completely unironically
>>578747164You should literally never ever buy a salve ever
>>578746219Get midas, blink, dagonTrust.
>>578747870Yeah just sit under tower in fear for 5 minutes instead of spending 100g
>>578748138this guy used to be good, jesus, china dota really is crumbling
Will there ever actually be a real melee invoker?
>>578748138except the other anon was suggesting someone else spend the 100g lmao
>>578748552There was going to be, but he was a microbvll hero and campo Santo hates those.
no, you'll get a big pixar studios animal as your next hero again, he'll have one nuke one stun one passive one aoe nuke ultimate
>>578747859well yeah the hero designs and models in this game are fucking ugly as shit so might as well cover them with particles so you can't see them anymore
>muh campo santo boogeyman
champions that should get an arcana:>luna>templar assassin>lina (a second one completely independent from the hair fire shit)
>>578739869>Is he inbetween reworks stateYes. He was a meta pos 1 because his tidebringer was overtuned, then he was kinda meta as a pos 3 due to admirals rum receiving many buffs, after that got nerfed he fell off the map so I suspect the next big patch will try to figure out his next identity.

Another game where I go against the 5 wins in a row juggernaut while my mid somehow doesn't die playing Warlock vs Viper
>>578739582No its just spaghetti code. The worst part is they coded the tallying and percentile calculations for each fantasy stage well, but whoever coded simply adding those values together and calculating the percentile totals overall obviously doesn't know how to optimize their code and its slow as fuck for no good reason.

What is a "Good farming pattern"I got dumpstered in lane with a support bristle that took cs, so I afk'd and just ran back and forth doing the camps in the bot river and took an occasional creep wave when I saw people were fightingand I was actually farmed and strong and ended with good gold and exp??When that's the exact opposite of how you're supposed to farm???I genuinely do not understand
>>578752147Hoodwink persona should look like this
https://youtu.be/2kmn4luFTVw?t=6622puppey playing guitar
>>578753025>ai slopper>dislikes hoodwink(perfection)huh
>>578752482A good farming pattern is about wasting the least amount of time walking around between gold sources.It's up to you, but if you do it fast then it's a good pattern.I think all the pros do it subconsciously that's why they're all rich at minute 9 or something. With a 9 minute radiance on alchemist, I haven't managed that in pubs.
Why is Slop usage so prevalent and accepted in the Dota community and youtube space?Are ESLs simply phillistines?

>>578753474You're just retarded
dont think anyone would notice if they removed ringmaster and largo
>>578753605I see both of those more often than heroes like SD or Chen

>>578753683both of these have been staples for years so they have a legacylargo is pretty much only used for minor metafaggotry and ring by lazy retards on supp
honestly are we getting 8.00 or keep this travesty that is 7.4x? it has been all fucking terrible, the game needs a BIG patch, new map, smaller map, less shit
>>578754036Naga, Bat, ET, Lycan and Brew are all kinda viable in certain games.

More people would play Chen if he wasn't shitInvoker is one of the most popular heroes in the game because he actually does shitYour reward for mastering Chen is getting to use a couple of shitty creep spells or trying to cheese down towers with your organized playgroup before falling off a sheer cliff face and becoming an aura bot at 20 minutesChen is the hardest, most intimidating hero to play in Dota AND he fucking sucks.
>>578754036are micro heroes becoming less popular due to newgens not knowing micro because they didn't grow up with rts games?

When I play POS 4/5 and the game runs late so everyone on the enemy team has a BKB (and I have no BKB piercing stuns obviously) should I hang back in team fights until the BKBs run out? I just feel awful watching my team die off while I'm chilling.
Remember when LC came out, with her arcana, and they had the voice actress record some angelic sounding lines for no reason

so that's it huhno more TIs
>>578769296Carrytrannies pretend their role is hard when it's actually the easiest and strongest role in the game.Supportchads can switch to carry and win more than they do on support, that's how easy carry is.
Man behavior score really does make a difference I'm down to 7k all because I queued in Russia and got reported for not speaking moonrunes. And now people report by default because their behavior score is low and they're always tilted. I am playing with Arkham Asylum psychopaths, 4.5k mmr matches feel like Guardian. I now have to play roughly 200-300 unranked games or just make a new account.
>>578769538until ti16 in 2027
>>578769693>I queued in Russia and got reported for not speaking moonrunesWhy would you get reported for that? Rusnigs play on EUW and refuse to speak human without any punishment. Are you telling me rusnigs are hypocrites as well?

>>578770151The game is full of post TI tourists right now. They don't even know what tormentor or wisdom shrine is. They will get filtered out in 1 month.
>>578770553i think thats the case because he's lvl 0 on the event. the guy has 7k games on his profile tho

>>578771778pfft i could never play this account again and hold it until the world ends
But Dota 2 Powerpoints told me Dragon Knight could go into any lane and play any role
This is literally the worst time to play dota. 50% of the playerbase is exclusively braindead retards who are mimicking everything they saw in TI. Pos1 Nature's Prophet, Lifestealer etc. The other half are also braindead retards who heard about "team spirit won a 3rd TI" so they login after 3-4 years of being away just to euthanize queues.Absolutely impossible to play right now.
>>578773197it's been this way every single month after TI, why are you surprised
>>578773358Why are people who haven't played in 5 years allowed to queue in ranked that's my only question.

Being a returning player is hard.The map is overwhelming and if you're not consistently farming you are losing.
they should add a goblin with a spear
>>578787951yeah the most boring part of the game right now is that there is way too much dead time where you just have to farm neutrals as efficiently as possible

>>578791480Its the legendary spazky
>>578763578I ran into this problem early in the group stages.Apparently Valve fucked up the compression for tournament replays so the client can't natively download+watch them. You'd have to download the replay from a third-party site like opendota and then use 7zip (WinRAR doesn't work) to unzip the .bz2 file. Then you can watch it in-client.
>>578761251
is TA actually good or fun or is this one of those memes i've heard about
>>578795941TA is a midgame carry. She can do big damage but once the game goes too late she can't win the game by herself so you gotta be ending by 30 minutes.

>>578796079so she's unplayable, got it
Assuming Valve doesn't screw me out of the terrain token, I'm debating which one to get. Current thoughts: >Reef's Edge: Undoubtedly the coolest, but holy shit there's a lot going on. It's distracting. >Emerald Abyss: Similar to above, cool but might be hard to adjust to. >Desert Terrain: Cool, visually clean, looks like the terrain someone who takes the game way too seriously would use exclusively for the visual clarity. >Sanctums of the Divine: Looks like the normal map but cleaner. Looks mad cozy at night. >Overgrown Empire, Immortal Gardens: Cool but nothing noteworthy. >>578792060space bar
>>578792060N for some reason. But I never pick neutrals that need a hotkey. I don't want to have another button to press.
Grubby
>>578796917>Reef's EdgeI feel the same. I have it and think it's beautiful but can't play on it because it's too distracting.>Emerald AbyssIt's the one I'm using right now, I like it.>Sanctums of the DivineIf I get the Terrain token I'll pick this one. It looks nice and I'd like to try to play on it.
mason looks so ugly and he plays the game with a bitchy face, maybe he should fatmaxx again
>>578795626This doesn't work for this particular game since it's not on OpenDota/Dotabuff etc at all. I think it has something to do with the lobby itself. Spirit even had to destroy the ancient at the end since BoomBoys' "gg" didn't work.
The idea of old invoker having 3^3 spell combinations is possibly the most based thing I've ever heard of in a multiplayer video game. Is there anyone ITT ancient enough to have played it?
>>578798448never touched invoker in 15 years, the only time I considered playing it was when they were playing it quas wex in pos 4

I am very sorry for my behavior during the international and have returned from my absence. With that being said, how would you rate this TI? I couldn't watch most games but it seemed pretty mid. 6/10 i guess.
>>578800653I could barely watch because of it being in China's timezone. I like it when they're in Europe.

POV: Your team(radiant) said "we win the late game" before the game started.
Valve should release and update to optimize the game, my 10 year old laptop can only run it on lowest graphical settings for 90fps.

>>578809393>>578809465That's cool but they didn't get any screen time (except for the foid), I wouldn't buy their stickers. The entire TI was just Nattea and the two archon dorks on the big couch.

>want to watch a game to see how OP treant is>can't
But was Harmonizer the right tier 5 item for the Invoker on Game 5? He's mainly getting mana cost reduction from it, right?
i thought TI was always in september i had no idea it was in august, i only caught the first two games of the finalglad Spirit won at least
Let's just face the fact that Puppey got outdrafted.
>>578812047No[o]ne was pretty much on autopilot after the 4th game. He's been doing the same shtick since joining Virtus Pro, he's not a big game player like Topson or Sumail in the midlane. Completely invisible in crucial career defining games.

Why are based russians so good at dota and the GOAT of all time org with 3 TIs? (and more to come)
>>578814868same reason russians are good at chess
>>578814868Mostly depression and harsh cold 5-6 month winters. There's not much to do in Russia. That's why all these other TI winners retire immediately, they have personal lives. Same goes for the influx of Scandinavian players. Chronic depression and cold weather.
>>578814868what else are you supposed to do there, dark and cold all the time. no money and the game is free.
