>>578815529How did this nerd end up being the best player NA has ever produced (purely on a skill level, even his accolades are very good)
we know what type of person made this general
>>578815640blew his own team up and got a lawsuit to deal with over it and got swept twice
>>578815640pure american determination
So, now that the dust is truly settled: what's the best TI for you /gulagbro/? And why?
Russia won.Spirit won.OG Lost.Liquid Lost.n0tail LostJugg Lost.
>>578815901Afraid to say Puppey lost?
>play 45 games>get reported in 1 of them>net increase of 400 goyscore across that entire periodthe cia wishes they had torture methods like thisand yet, i continue subjecting myself to it
>>578815901OG HAD BEST TI RUN.BACK TO BACK BABY.
had 4 white claws and my head is spinning ahah omggg, went 0-8 on my last game as lion and I barely remember hwhat ahppeend lol
pozzcucks and fags still trying to shill for OG kek
>>578816638god i miss playing dota drunk... or high...
Forced 50 totally isn't real guys.
>>578815640Sumail in his prime was better than Quinn ever was.
Did vision win any honeypot lans on the way to TI15?
>>578817453They won EWC last month.
>>578817453>>578817453They were the most in form team coming into TI, after finding their footing with Noticed they just raped everythingOnly reason why they didn't get an invite directly was idunno. valve did the invites too late i guess
>russia is dark cold and depressing>all their carries just instalock sf/tb and become the bestwew
>>578817453they won 2 good tournamentsewc and dreamleague (dreamleague actually isn't a lan though) they only started being top tier last few months before tithey probably would've won blast slam vii too, they were the best in the online group stage but they had visa issues and didn't even play the lan finals
>be SEAdog>farm group stages>choke playoffs>except at ti>just chokeevery time
>>578817630the invites came out a couple of days after they won dreamleague, but i think the invites were decided earlier so they didn't take that win into consideration
>>578817909isn't aurora now a slav team?
>>578817986that was last year. this year they've been a weird slav+seamonkey mix.
>>578817298Looks like you're set in your MMR skill bracket
>>578817805>>578817521how the fuck is the EWC final for dota over a month ago when the cs final was just a week ago? Is that shit all summer long?
Why didn't zyori lock in?
>>578818579yeah it lasts for almost two months because there's so many games
>>578818579yeah, dota's ewc was at the start
Is Phoenix a position 2 hero?
>>578817909lmao funny enough him and kaori was the best players on the team
A WOMAN GOT ALL THE PREDICTIONS RIGHT?!?! HOW?!?
dotards dolly parton died
>>578819228good
>>578817909they beat bb 2-0 in groups then got them again in the elimination match and lost 0-2 lol
>>578817909>>578819764there was that one tourny a few months before ti where mikoto was like 50-1 in statline over multiple group stage gamesthen he choked the playoffs
Dota lost its magic for me, im so depressed. I don't even really feel emotions anymore. Idk what happened to me bros, life just moved on and it grates on your soul year after year. This game was the one thing I really enjoyed and cared about and I didn't even bother watching more than a game or two for this TI. I get home from work and don't even have energy to play. Might consider getting on meds or something... wish I could care about things like my mmr and winning games, all my friends moved on years ago guess its time for me to as well.
>>578819867i feel it too. im ashamed to admit it but i just completely ruined a game because i didnt want to play anymore after dying in lane. it makes no difference to me at this point
>>578815529>>578695746>>578733782>down to 94th percentile nowFUCKING VALVE
>>578819867>>578820136play pic rel
>>578820136yep wish I could go back in time to like 2013-2016 when the game was in its golden age. >>578820259I put in a few hundred hours, favorite playthrough was chaos dwarves. Ogres were fun too.
>>578819865he is a very dominant mid laner aurora did get to 2 tier one grand finals this year with him blowing the team up after one successful year is kinda crazy
im still unemployed
>>578820220trust the plan eventually theyll count up the fantasy points
>>578821486are you getting free gibs from the govt? i got 1 month left of mine then im fucked kek
>IT class>qt femboi points out the bad-dragon stickers on my water bottleCracking that in a few weeks, senpai. Bet.Dota 2.
>>578821906no, worse - leeching off my parents
>>578822114>>578822114at least they're still alive and they love you enough to have you around. could be worse and keep ur head up, you would be surprised how many people get help from their parents... tons of current/former dota pros and tons of streamers. some parents even buy their kids starter homes, cars, pay for weddings, and so much more. everyone lies about the help they get srs
>>578822642yeahim forever grateful for my parents not only helping but also understanding my financial situationalmost broke down when my fourth interview failed and they were there to comfort methanks for this post, makes me want to try harder now
If this dota stuff doesn't work out for me I'm trying bodybuilding.

mason rage quit again lmfao what a sperg lolcow
I lost to pos 1 pudge. Game was over in 28 minutes.
Is there any shame in getting calibrated to herald?
>>578825214No.
>>578825214Only if you've put in several hundred+ hours and like 1,000+ games and should know better by now. My personal ballpark threshold is:<1,000 games = noob, it's okay>1,000 games = retard, not okay
>>578823068you'll get it eventually man just keep trying. Keep reviewing and improving just like the way you improve on Dota.

>>578826062whyranked is literally the only reason to play dota
i got raped by a solo undying in lane, because my enigma hs did nothing while my offlane got raped by the trilane.the game was over by min 27 and i was 0/7 and had only a midas and radiance.how can i euthanize a game like that quicker
>>578826129Valve changed the AI this year. Made them more retarded IMO. They fixed some shit like the bots not buying items but they just stand afk by the tower and shit and make zero effort to lane if you're there. The wandering back and forth is actually normal and part of what they used to do. Shit like roam to gank mid, TP to defend towers, etc. They often change their minds mid-roam so they get kinda stuck in the jungle sometimes until they REALLY feel the need to defend a tower or something.
>Have sudden urge to buy a Dead Reckoning Chest >Last time I bought one it was like ~$0.30 >Now it's $0.40 >wtf >Look at price history >They used to be $0.02 damn what the fuck, I wish I bought thousands of them. Is the supply finally drying up?
woah
>>578826385dont show up to anything and keep farming, even if theyre pushing racks
>>578826385Abandoning the game and then killing yourself is fastest.Imagine losing a 2v1 safelane as any carry while the enemy team griefs themselves with a trilane, and then thinking it's not your fault you lost.
>>578825214Look at it this way. Top 100 Immortal players view 1k rank Immortal players as bad as Heralds.
>>578821506mines already counted
>>578825214no, shame comes if you don't improve
>>578827189i wanna see you win that lane vs undying while you have a useless enigma hs that only saps xp and steals lasthits
I'm gonna print out a picture of a hero and put it up on my wall, moved into a new apartment. who should it be? it will be in a cheap picture frame and color printed
>log in to dota>fantasy percentile is down to 95ththis cant be fucking real.I even found an old screenshot from last year in which i got less total points and still ended up at 98th. Did people suddenly decide to actually take this shit seriously compared to last year?
>>578827783SF
>>578827783I just randomed puck, so go with that
>>578827783base model? hat? custom art? is it only one hero or can be two?
>>578827783visage cuz gargoyles guard the cemeteries, plus it's fucking cool
>>578825214The ranks themselves aren’t the reason to be ashamed. You should only feel shame if you don’t actually move from herald as time goes by
>>578815529Furry "fandom" goes on >>>/trash/, tourist.
>Smurf>beyond godlike>still loseI'm lmaoing my way to the bank to cash in this MMR.
>>578827783windranger arcana icon specifically (picrel)
The average person here looks like this. Ritsu, a former dota pro. Very, very ugly and disgusting.
>>578828285Rule 3.c. says "Anthropomorphic ("furry") pornography". OP's pic is not porn. Unless you consider all depications of the female form to be porn. In that case, all the Sonic threads on /v/ would be banned too.
>>578827748Even if it was a 1v2 lane, it's not that hard and not a lost cause. You just have to know the basics of laning and wave management, which sounds like something you're lacking in, especially at your MMR.Friendly suggestion though. If you're going to first pick a pos 1 hero in ranked, pick one you actually know how to play. Throwing a melty over a situation you put yourself in is pretty embarrassing.
>>578828947why is it my facking fault that my support didnt pick and then picked enigma niggayou are such a loser if you could have handled that better
>>578828897cont. the way you're implying the rules would be similar to the pony rule. If I drew PA as a pony version and posted it in this thread; I would expect a three day ban. Because the "pony" rule doesn't have a rider similar to the furry one.
>>578828947wk wasnt the problem the problem was that undying got 5 kill in 5 mins like wtf especially in a solo lane
>>578829016>>578829406factorio is the better game anyway
FUCK I DROPPED TO 88TH PERCENTILE YANDEX WHY THE FUCK DID YOU THROW THE GROUP STAGE
>>578827816At least you didn't pick LGD and get 0 points for the main stage
>>578828897>nooooo don't fursecute me its 2026 you can't do thi- ACK!!No one cares, go back to furaffinity, gay sonicfag redditor.
I haven't played dota in nearly 2 years. I just post here because I have nowhere else to go. Been here since 2014
>>578829927hey, just wanted to help you understand the rules better.. since you're clearly new here
>>578829931>2 yearsthat's nothing
Feeling good, man!

I finally understand... pos 4 and 5 are the true chad roles
>>578832689Drow dumpstering a jugg. Axe was and me really didn't do much. They never grouped up for Call or Winter's Curse, but maybe them being so cautious was why we won.
nice

WR crimson witness doesnt turn my shackleshot redbug or intended?
21k points here, now it shows 97th when I log in and then updates to 98th, they stole 1 full percentage for me, they are trying to steal this election so bad, but there's only one more day of counting so I don't think they can
>>578835084I'm 21.6k or something like that but it's been showing 99th ever since TI ended and still hasn't changed, I'm hopeful for a purple box.
>>578835084I've been 19.8k and at 98th and it hasn't changed on me since. I'm hopeful I'll get a terrain token.
>>578835084feels like it updates when they log ini went from 96% to 94%..
>>578835337I'm at 213xx, dont remember the last 2 digits>>578835420it is weird, it does something when you log in because it changes the value

Does the game folder still say dota 2 beta
I used to think that pos1 would be the best role to "solo win" the game but if you fall behind and need to farm but your team start sealing your safe camps instead of making space then you're just kinda fucked. Also it sucks when you're the most scrutinized player, 0/12 supports with lvl 3 dagons and 8k total damage will blame you in all-chat for not winning.
alright, next game is looking a little better
>>578835997>Also it sucks when you're the most scrutinized player, 0/12 supports with lvl 3 dagons and 8k total damage will blame you in all-chat for not winning.this is 100% irrelevant, you are to choosing to care about what they type
>>578834885no one in d2g is spending money on cosmetics go check reddit instead
how does hydra's breath work with muerta's gunslinger?
>everyone except ppd and mason at sharteezy weddingpfft
howling when i imagine that some redditors are probably thinking "valve is gonna give everyone who participated a terrain token as a surprise!"
>>578836668mason would have stolen his wife on that day
>>578836547Procs chance is applied to non gunslinger shots.
>>578836668ppd was an asshole to everyone so it doesn’t surprise me
Post your main hero's stats. Yes, this is on my main account, I've basically stopped playing there after achieving my rating goals
>>578836948Marci!!!
im going to marry rtz's wife
>>578836772that's lame
Remember when heroes would fall into Radiant/Dire?And they stopped that with reborn, but for a while, the old hero grid was still accessible on the official page, and new hero releases were assigned to Radiant or Dire?Dark Willow was Radiant. I don't remember who else but there were some weird choices.
Uncs be like yeah this was great design. Blink dagger range 8 second disarm
I realize the losers are those who truly failed to learn. After all these years, Volvo, icefrog and doto had remained the same, gabe? Who to blame? A game that is once a masterpiece of gunisoo, turned into this cancerous beast, a villain of its own making. In 2015 I hoped doto would be in the Olympic Games. Now I just hope the 322 will find other game to rig. I am nostalgic for the lan shop in Marina Bay, nostalgic for the girl with crooked teeth, and to play a game of doto with friends. Reward the good, stop fighting the vulgar and toxic. How hard is that to do?
>>578837218
Feels like OD is one slight buff away from being retardedly OP
>>578837986Like literally ever Int carry, he is hard countered by BKB. Don't expect him in pro play much.
i got bullied during a game, now i dont know if it was my teams fault because they kept fighting 1v5/3v5 and dieing or my fault because i didnt join fights as much and didnt have the most damage
bought a new mic that is bigger so I hope I'll be able to play games now without carpal tunnel pain then I'll get back into dota, at least for completing the event, but hopefully for real, I think I'd really enjoy taking the game seriously and improving and reaching high mmr pubs
>>578838398>didnt have the most damageyou are the problem
>>578838437mice*
>>578838475nigger my morph had 7k less damage while having 6k more nw
>>578835084>>578835337>>578835368>lower scores than me>higher percentagesIs valve really rigging it that bad
>>578837140You can probably still type "Radiant" and "Dire" in the hero select screen.
If Valve was a serious company, they would sell the purple box at $99 apiece
trying to carry from pos 1 is literally retarded, the easiest role to climb from is playing a scaling core in pos 3 or a ganking core in pos 2 (but requires you to learn how to play mid which is different than playing sidelanes)climbing from 5 and maybe 4 is also probably very easy and easier than from pos 1
>>578838563What's probably actually happening is that users are split into "regions" or servers, and they have their own internal rankings. And Valve has to spend a few days filtering out the bots, verifying that points are correct, and then having all the servers pool their lists together into one big mega list and that's where the final rankings are tallied. They could even be staging it in multiple levels to merge a couple servers/regions at a time instead of doing it all at once which is probably why it fluctuates a lot and takes a while. They could also be swapping users around servers based on score just to make focusing on them / verifying their points easier. Whatever it is, it is sure taking a lot of time just to tally up a few hundred million entries.
This is your pos 4 Underlord. How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>578838892My thing is how is something as sumple as point calculation taking so long? It should just be automatic. The only reasonable reason to take so long is to purge bots but even then it's always painfully obvious.
>>578838929sup diff :^))
>>578838929i will fucking KILL YOU
>>578838548preciselyif your high networth doesnt translate into more damage you are literally stealing farm from those who are more capable
>>578838892Its definitely split into regions. I'm in Australia and last year my fantasy playoff points weren't added to the total until the last day. The same thing is happening this year, but fantasy points still haven't been added to my total.>>578838626One thing that makes carrying from any position easiler in my opinion is just picking a hero that can take towers.
>>578839459no i meant he had 6 k more nw but thanks for supporting my point
Lock the fuck in
Locked out
played a bunch of mid games today, every single one of them on the end game screen im behind the pos 3, and sometimes the pos 4 if its some shit like zeus on NW. Now time to investigate a little, maybe they're just in every kill or getting the last hits on kills. Nope, legit just ricing harder than me. Which begs the question, if I dont adapt my gamestyle to account for ricer 3s and sometimes 4s is that just an insta loss? Who the fuck is gonna make moves or respond to teamfights if both the 1 2 3 and sometimes 4 are too busy farming waves and jungle. Ancient bracket btw
>>578839113You're right that merging a bunch of lists shouldn't take so long so they are probably doing something that requires multiple steps and/or doing something between the steps.Now that I typed out my post, I think they're definitely doing something like swapping users around servers based on region or their rankings. e.g. top 1% go into list A, 1%-2% go into list B, etc. and they are carefully monitoring how the merging of the user lists go on a per-server basis. They probably can't have one list on one server because it's too big or w/e, so they probably have some set-aside master list servers that spread out the millions of users over several chunks, and then they feed in users one server region at a time so it's like 10k-100k users per hour over several days.
3 games where i get griefed and 2 of which i should have wonwhy do i get so much shit onwhat did i do to god that he punishes me like that
>>578839743mid is the new pos 3, the offlaner farms more than you, you use your levels to gank and put the enemy team under pressure, that's how campo santo's dota 2 is like now
>>5788397433 4 5 should be the ones showing up to fights first. It's their job. If you run yourself ragged and be some stupid poor mid with 150 last hits in 30 minutes, you fucked up and it's possible that while you might've missed out on some good kills, you could've just gotten those kills later after you had farm.Another thing to think about is that those fags are farming because nobody's taking it (e.g. not you). So if you go farm, they have no choice but to be more useful.
>>578840068Im not that guy but generally speaking i find my teams just dont do stuff, they all farm "safe" jungle camps or just do nothing which leaves me to get crushed if i ever show on a lane. What the fuck do i do here? Im not kidding when i say that if i dont defend we are getting raxxed with no contest, that literally happened yesterday because i stopped pushing out lanes, nobody responded to creeps taking rax
>>578839949But why does it need to be so needlessly convoluted? It can't be so much better than a raw percentile with every player in the game.
>>578840443Im using the chatwheel btw. Help and fight under the tower and group up and stuff of this nature. People dont respond or respond with Negative
>>578840521Sounds like you're playing with brown 'people.' These aren't humans so trying to communicate with them in English is a waste of time.
>>578839987i got sundered by my tb which won us the game but i am still mad asfthank god its only 2 loses and a 4v5 win
>>578840443"Positions" are about farming priority. So if some faggot pos 4 griefer on Zeus wants the safe camps and you're the mid who wants farm, fuck him. Go take it yourself. Get there before he does. Take the camps before he does. Make him show in lane instead of you. Stop sharing or being nice.Pubs are retarded. Part of getting gud is not just recognising what's retarded, but what you can do to wrangle the retards into potentially doing the right thing.>What the fuck do i do here?Pick better heroes who will take the farm and turn them into teamfight wins and objectives. Or learn to do exactly that on the hero you picked. Best answer I can give when the question itself is so vague.>nobody responded to creeps taking raxGonna be honest, that should be free farm you're taking. If it was enemy heroes taking rax that's one thing but if it's just creeps, that's farm that's being wasted.
>>578840646winning at what costi dont know how many more 4v5s i can do
>>578840521all you need to use is get back and group up and pings
*spam pings ur respawn timer*
>>578840618Retard, do you even play the game? The chat wheel voice lines like GROUP UP are auto-translated, so it's explicitly not a language barrier issue. Everybody who's played the game knows that.
The games have just been so depressing and griefed since TI ended I can't do this shit anymore it made me lose all motivation. Cant deal with these retarded niggers any morethink I'll play some single player game for a week or two instead
STOP THE FUCKING COUNTmy percentile is on a huge freefall
>>578842306*spam pings items and hero laugh chat wheel*
>naix on my team rushes naked radiance without even bothering with boots let alone phase bootstelltale of a lost game
>>578840892>Gonna be honest, that should be free farm you're takingIt normally would be but i was done at this point. But this leaves the final problem, when i go there to take the farm and my team doesnt respond im dead. People are taking tier 2 towers with meme hammers like 10 minutes into the game and im just standing there, depending on the hero. Some of these are just auto lost, people follow some narrative >and then after 85min slark heroicly came online and solo won the game alone and nobody ever helped or defended for an hourthese games.Im getting back into playing mid and that should open up some heroes for me that can kind of make people fuck off

Is there a better feeling in Dota than reflecting a juggernaut omnislash and watching you and him fly off into an anime fight?
>>578850767pwning 5 retards with an unreflected omnislash
>>578850767>Have a Lotus>see Jugg running to me, Lotus myself>he still full omnislash me with no second thoughtthis is Ancient too
>dota 2 news>everyone is retiring>shartour getting married to an asian women (he will learn the hard way)>nothing about new patch>no new tournaments>no new rosters>literally nothing new at allit is looking so grim, and the sad part is, we all know all valve needs to do is snap their fingers and the game would immediately thrive again but they don't want it to happen
Hello dotards I used to hang out in the trenches from 2012 to 2017, with a few games around covid. I now have the itch to play again, how should I approach it? I don't know what half of the items do, I don't know what the shit on the new map does, I'm tempted to just play and wing it. It seems so many things have changed. Like, orbs are not a thing anymore, everyone has aghs, support was all about warding and pulling. Will I get reported? Thank you.
>>578849035>the only black man in the game>easily the weakest herowhat the FUCK did valve mean by this?
>>578851061just play turbo and revisit the things you know, then read the new itens descriptions and new heroes skills, that's allcopy your builds from dotabuff
>>578851153So I shouldn't use the ingame item guides?
rate my team lads
>>578851219no, copy builds from high rank players
>>578851061Orbs were removed during that time period thoughbeitfrog.jpg
>>578851061might as well consider yourself a new playerjust pick lion for 20 turbo games and look at what people doing
>>578851342I know, I just wanted to put things into perspective of how old I feel. I also played a bit with talents, they've been in the game for 10 years, yet feel completely new and unfamiliar? After all these years things just feel blurry.
Ive been watching some of my replays, not to improve or anything for other reasons and i have noticed that i actually quite often sit in the top 3 in last hits for the first like 20ish minutes even in game where i feel like im basicly 100% zoned from my lane. I have been really surprised a bunch of times.I just wanted to let everyone know that
This is rtzs wife.
>>578851256is it arteezy's wedding?
>>578853642holyits not fair
>>578825642>played 3k hours back in the day before mmr (10ish years)>play some ranked ranked before the reset>heraldyou're fineand now I broke my arm so no doters for another year or so lol
>>578851061Just play turbo but don't play heroes like alchemist, bounty hunter or doom because they suffer from lower winrates due to not being adjusted for turbo.Chen sucks because he scales like milk.
>>5788256423k hours and I am a herald and nearly half those games are turbo, but I'm also a scientist who uses machine learning at a top university
>>578853847>suffer from lower winrates due to not being adjusted for turbowut
>have all map skinsWhat the fuck do I need a map token for?
RTZ is such a manchildren he can't even put a suit for his wife
>>578855387He did though
>>578855387he probably took the jacket off for that one picture you clueless retard
>>578855387t. manchild
>>578855486>he looks like an idiot and she looks like she's in her third marriageyep, she's going to devour him
>>578853971Me when I lie
>>578855387If he wasn't a manchild he would not marry a chinese woman
>EG is coming backbros....
>>578858179why can't asians marry asians
>>578858191Actually comfy, you can tell rtz is a genuine guy and people like to hang out with him
>>578858298Parasocial take
>>578858191>3rd time this image has been posted ittfucking newfags
>>578858291What are you talking about turks are chinese people.
>>578858501actually its the 4th time lmao
>>578858442>all 8 of his former teammates show up to his wedding>"you are glazing over an eceleb that doesn't know you exist"Off the top of your head, name 5 people who like you apart from family members.

>>578858641>all 8 of his former teammates show up to his weddingartour has a lot more than 8 former team mates lmaowhere is n0tail and fly?

>>578858882and ee or puppey?how about pld or kuroky or s4 or cyborgmatt?i can rail off 8 team mates he snubbed no problem lmao
Do you guys have para social relationships with rtz?The word para makes me think of moths and other pests
>>578858882nolans is probably in portugal since he bought his mansion there
>>578859154his name is h0neylans actually, only won honeypot lans
>>578859264how many lans did rtz win
>>578859339the one with speed gaming and that's all
I do feel sad that the first generation of dota is retired or washed and the new generation is just russians with no personalitybut I do believe valve will get the battlepass back in the game and also the DPC with 4 majors and TI and that would bring back a lot of faces
>>578859710move on bro, you can never go back
>>578859824I already moved on because I don't watch the pro scene outside of TI anymore, but I'd like to watch some cool big dota major every 3 months if it existedI also am getting back to playing the game now, because it's better than wasting time on twitter making fun of magatards or playing single player games
>>578859974you have moved on from anything while you yearn for the old days to returnlmao
>>578860113it's called nostalgia, it just hits you every once in a while
>>578860265and you move past it by endearing yourself to the present like by finding some current pros who have "personality"
>>578860426All that's left is those slavs.It's not a good place to be anymore.The games numbers keep going up, it's 1 million players. Who is playing aside from russians?
>>578860859stop lying and open your eyes
>>578858191fear looks like fucking shit man
how to counter Kez?
>>578861809for a 38 year old, he looks greatpost hairline

>>578861876dont be a fag
>>578862357seeing is believing
>>578862242The percentiles don't make any sense right now don't worry about it.20k points is definitely above 90%.
>>578862737i ain't posting myself here niggayou'll just have to believe in me for someone would never lie on d2gi got a sub 6 inch dick thoughmaybe because im fat
So if you live long enough you can stop being a creep?How would that work?Is it a metaphor for quitting the game?
STOPTHECOUNT
>>578862893>looks at zyoriyeah I don't think so, once a creep always a creep
>>578861876drag game long enough to see him do 0 damage

>>578867573thank you for announcing your presence
>>578867419Yes but you would think it would affect everyone at the same time
join the /vg/ chatroom in the game if you still play you fucking losers, it costs nothing
>>578868005the removal of them can come in waves depending on the source of their transgression
>see niggas falling low>fuck my shit is over then 100%>went from 92% to 96%
>>578868345why tho
>>578869093why not, just do it, it's good to see more people there
>>578869093>thokill yourself nigger
what if dove shows up pregnant and bulba is the father?
>>578868345>mostly legends and unrankeds>only two immortalsI knew /d2g/ was all talk.
lmfao they didn't invite PPD to the wedding? Is he really that much of a dickbag? No mason either? Wow lmfao, they must be terrible in real life.
>>578867573No he's here >>578869136
>>578869136>>578869093
BULLY GET YE GONE!
>>578869734Or they just couldn't make it. Destination weddings suck.
>>578869734inviting mason is sort of a pr nightmare, unless they are trve friends or someshit it is sadly understandable not inviting him
>>578869734ever since ppd married that ukrainian gold digger all he thinks about is how to make money with the shadiest scams possible
>slark game>two int feeders on my team. one broke items>sven game>one teammate afk'd until game was safe to leave>one teammate left as soon as it wasAgents have been deployed. MMR loss prevention protocols will be engaged.
>>578870072buddy, no one likes mason, no one likes jubei, those don't get invitedthere's a reason why so many people in NA didn't get to have a chance at a top tier pro team and it was not skill, it was that a lot of NA players are just insufferable manchildren you want to be as far away as possible
>>578869734the wedding was held in China right after TI, according to Mason arteezy has been acting cagey with him recently probably due to the cabal targeting mason with false allegations. mason is on Jimmy Ho level now even if artour remembers them fondly he knows its not a good look to associate with them
>>578870228>buddy, no one likes mason, no one likes jubei, those don't get invitednigga how am i or you to know this, we know nothing of these individuals
>>578870287who is the cabal? sounds serious
So true.
You walk into the middle lane and see this deer standing on the other side, how do you respond?
I haven't played since talents were added but I have the urge to play Nyx again
>>578870665Rape, but I have to do it slowly because of her passive.
>>578870665i use my spells, get runes and win lane
>>578870445The caster cabal, they basically control all of Dota from deciding balance changes to who wins the tournaments.
I think im gonna reinstall dotabut im afraid of competing with people on the nu-bloated-version so im just gonna play with bots as usual

>>578872005Reinstall then jerk off
>>578869136okay now im not joining
>main a hero>suddenly get into games where literally the entire enemy team's draft is aimed solely at shutting me down and countering meyeah that's great nice
about to go on a walk in the park and think about new builds and theorycrafts.
>>578872528>main a hero
whoever has drow arcana needs to grab purple drow emote and post how it looks with it and how the skill effect looksI actually think the regular immortal will look better
drinking out of the rtz wedding cup
>>578873619>even in the anime chatgpt image he has a gigantic nose and is half baldoof
>>578873619>ai generated>porn codedwouldn't expect different from artour, he has never had any taste
>>578873580Why don't you just use demo mode to find out yourself?
>>578874047it doesnt work, you can't demo the purple gust effect
>>578873789what's wrong with having a big nose
>>578874163?
>>578874319well, I tired multiple times and it didn't work for methe regular immortal looks better, doesnt it? it fits because it's red
>>578874241jewschnozz
>>578874446Sure, but it costs like $20. I'm personally kinda debating between the Drow and Storm immortals, assuming I get one.
Hoodwink should look like this
Any recommended guides or some shit about gitting gud as a new player
>>578874762NahMarci should though
>>578874241big noses are universally ugly, small noses are universally attractiveyou're pretending to not know this because you have a big nose
>>578875129xqc is attractive and he has a massive schnoz
>>578874762Boobs too big for Dota
>>578875279didn't know xqc posts here
>>578875129>big noses are universally ugly, small noses are universally attractivestrong noses look good on males and small noses look good on women. you're just a brainwashed little pinoy or nigger who wants to look like a kpop idol
>>578875129>big noses are universally ugly, small noses are universally attractiveOnly applies to women, men are meant to have a larger nose and not some flat button noseEven anime draws male noses more prominently and bigger than female
Rtz is so lucky.
>>578875279looks like a korean pretty boy (faggot)
>>578875543>>578875557it's ok to have a giant hideous nose but there's no need to post cope like this anons
>>578875543women love kpop idols
>>578875732thats why south korea has such a high tfr, or wait...
>>578875732because women flock to social status and fame

>>578879065Oh no the enemy team used bkb to dodge my 1 spell that's longer than their bkb
>>578879191the circles dont encompass the entire map and you willfully ignored the bkb counter
>>578879127Do all the SEA people play those mobile mobas too like the Chinamen? There's no new talent in that region at all.
>>578879320>walk out of the circle with bkb>it could last permanently and still not be useful againLMAO

Who is the most wholesome and positive dota 2 streamer?
>>578884827>
>>578885658Nah, he's right. The only people bothering to watch mason are hatewatchers who treat him like a lolcow. They're all bad people.

>>578885946youre the only constant
Why is Chaos Knight a bad mid laner?
I used to watch Mason because he was funny, dude would give speeches and stuff, a real guy's kinda guy. Now he's washed up, getting older, acts like a teenager in the body of a 35 year old man, isnt even funny or entertaining anymore, maybe like once a week. I watch him because he's turning into a shell of a person just like me.

I can't believe I just played a game without the chance of a candyworks reroll...I feel disgusting...

Why does Valve update this game all the time but not CS2? Counter Strike makes just as much money, so why don't they make more content updates for that game?

>>578887675last time I visited d2g a few months ago there was some guy stalking mason and he saw mason trying to hook up with a fat streamer that played league of legends, maybe it didn't work out for him, idkhonestly I never watch mason, he's not good at the game and his way of being funny gets old very fast
>>578888417it's not edited but i'm hoping it's just the game having a retard moment calculating the results

>>578888749>What is CS:GO?Allow me to explain. Valve ported a game called 'CS:GO' to the Source 2 game engine, but they didn't re-implement a lot of the gamemodes and features they left behind. It's been three years and they still haven't done that. Oh, and the game is flooded with cheaters and bots on top of that. It's post Meet You Match TF2 all over again.

>>578895523ee was special
>>578895108All I can thing about is how distinct and visually uncluttered this version of the game is...

>>578896320Lots of things happening behind the scenes.
>>578896582people will always have something to bitch about
This game took over my life and I realized I haven't touched a woman since late 2019 wtf, I've put in 7k hours since then. This shit is seriously addicting and makes everything else feel boring, how do you stop? I wasted years of my life chasing mmr.
Who knows if the anons are still with us
>>578899135man, that is one of the most depressing things ive ever seen. how do people actually live like this?

>>578900597ahahahaha, that's the one
>>578900583happens tomorrow
>>578900583No.Seems to be an update related to some machine learning tool Valve uses with Dota.
>>578895082I'm going to be very sad if it drops below 95th percentile.

What's the best way to get better at pos 4 and 5? I'm currently Archon and definitely have a lot of room for improvement, but I feel like my main issues are sometimes being underfarmed and not really knowing what to do when my team is falling behind. How do I make more space for my cores so they can catch up on farm?
>>578904582even after all these years I still have a deep gut feeling/instinct never to watch this, i recognize the frame
It's actually crazy how fucking worthless Ringmaster's escape act is
>>578905930>>578905424shame what she did to herself
>>578906328holy
>>578904582Mods?
>>578905791It's not really your job to make more space, but you can help your cores farm more safely by making sure there's good vision on the map. Keep stacking camps, ideally the triangle but if the enemy is near it or if your cores can't farm it well just stack the camps near the tier2 towers on the outskirts of your team's side of the map.If you're playing a support with a wave clear ability you can try to find farm for yourself in riskier positions, like creeps in a lane where the tower was lost and it will be dangerous to farm you can hide in the trees and use your ability to maybe get 2 last hits and then either run away or stay in the trees and do the same to the next wave. Or you can farm the creep camps on the outskirt of the map on the enemy team's side of the map, while your cores safely farm the camps on your team's side.If your team is behind and making an offensive play isn't an option, try to play opposite of the enemy team. If they're taking Tormentor or Roshan, use the opportunity to deward the previous place that they were in on your side of the map (like if they were in your triangle, but then went Roshan on the opposite side, not near it).Have a TP ready always if they gank one of your cores so you can try to help.For a more general advice earlier in the game, help your mid get the power runes. At 5:45, 7:45, 9:45, etc. ping that your going to the rune that is closest to your lane and ideally your mid will go to the opposite side. If the rune spawns on your side you'll ideally protect it until your mid can come take it but most likely the enemy mid will go to your side and you'll take the rune instead which is fine since it at least denies it to the enemy mid. Make sure you ping all of this multiple times so your carry/offlaner won't die solo while you go for the rune (they will, and they'll cry, but it's still the correct play).
what dinner food gives you the most mmr in starving and need to win some games
fed this thread to grok and it says the average person here looks like this. sad. go get some sun dotards
>>578896141was juggernaut always a sad joke? even in DotA? it feels like all he has is an ult and theres at least 3 items that counter it (idk if linkens works)
>>578907509lotus orb is the only real counter since nullifier was changed
>>578907654
>calibrate into ancient 4>"cool ill just grind a bit into divine 1 and take a break">7 loose streak>down to ancient 2why
>>578895276the game wasn't harder dipshits, there was just nothing to fucking do on the map, your support had no inventory slots either so realistically your support had room for a boots and a wand, wards took seperate slots, tp scroll took a slot, etcnowadays there's too much shit going on, the map is too big, there's too much bloat on the mapalso forgot to mention safelane was fukt on radiant there was no pathing on those left side trees so you were fukti started playin dota2 6.79ish, whenever drow had her bubble death prophet silence just before wraith night came out
>>578905709WTF I just looked him up to see what he's been up to
>>578907679yes but nullifier is a 4000+ gold item and juggernaut isnt even a radiance heroa ghost scepter is 1500 gold and euls will cost ya 2600
>>578907752
>>578907309damn puppey is so fucking hot
>>578908027he's married bro
>>578907997
>>578907309What even is that beast? It almost looks like a guy in a costume.
>>578907990>a ghost scepter is 1500 gold and euls will cost ya 2600these items counter all carrys the same way not just jugg
>>578907990>a ghost scepter is 1500 gold and euls will cost ya 2600That's true, but once you do buy that 4000 gold item there's nothing the support can do anymore. Your 4000 gold item will counter the 7k gold Windwaker and the 6k gold EBlade too.
>>578905424Newfag here, who ARE those fine women?
>>578905791>How do I make more space for my cores so they can catch up on farm?make sure to pull every wave you can to have a safe early, ward the entrances to your jungle so your core can farm safely, the team will subcounciously rotate to the part of the map thats warded so safety, if you see your two cores farming on closeby go on smoke try to get a gank, these small kills with smoke and vision are absolutetly what you have to do if your team is behind as they cant take full team fight and need 2-3 heroes to get a kill securely
>>578905930it hurtssomebody should send it to cap
>>578908208thats what people say about black bears all the time
I stopped playing this game when you couldnt solo carry games anymore. Sorry, but I liked when you could kill a level 5 support and farm them as a level 12 storm spirit with orchid. I liked getting rampages with sven and solo-carrying games. You just have far less personal impact now, you cant even split push a lane of rax anymore and rat as lycan or whatver .its just brawl brawl, farm farm, braw brawl... trash game, old dota was far better
>>578908208It's AdmiralBulldog's bear, Alfredo.
>>578908248>>578908260>hugs a creep wave>ult has no impact>jugg chases me down>i laugh in his face as my cores molest himgreat hero dotards...

>>578908451sounds kile a skill issue to me

>>578907654Dota 2 looked so much better before reborn its not even funny.Literally the same shit that happened to TF2
this is your /d2g/ poster
Old dota required far more skill, the map now offers unlimited farm and laning doesn't even matter because you can just go farm the bigger woods. Pushing high ground is impossible, you have to farm for 20 minutes and rosh three times just to end a stomp. You can turn your brain off in nu-dota, but not in old dota.
>>578911294i can't wait for u to die of old age so we never have to hear from ur drooping slop mouth ever again im pulling ur life support gramps asap

>>578911807
>>578911294I miss the way it looked.
>>578911903i just dnt rly prefer new or old dota 2, i don't think it's much better or worse than it was, i would take away neutral items tho, like what im sayin is some changes are good and some r crap, but to say old is objectively better ur just kiddin urself bro
>>578911952THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I miss the side shop.
>>578912071yeah I agree theres good things and bad things, im glad you can actually play support now and not just be a lane babysitter and ward bitch. they really did a good job with that
>>578910998
>>578912303ya! see guys there r some genuine good changes, i also like shard, aghs scepter for everyone, new runes, new objectives, talents aren't too bad, i don't really like that the map is way bigger, that's one change i don't like too much, it made some heroes really strong, the ones that can retreat and farm it easily, and it made some heroes dog shit, the ones that can't use any of it, etc
>>578911294you have terrible taste
>>578912047I have to say that the modern, clean UI is better than the old one. I played a lot of WC3 before trying Dota, but I don't miss the UI one bit.
>>578912414
>>578912664just be grateful that facets don't exist anymore, that period was miserable bro.......realest period of old dota bein better than nu-dota cuz facets fukn sukt but innates r kinda cool
You now remember this
>>578912895facets were just a vehicle for hero experimentation
>>578890659
>>578913151i guess, but it was still 22 months of aids and balls
>>578907452I can't be in sunlight, it messes with my meds.
What was ur least fav patch bros? for me it was probably 7.23(i think) when neutral items first came out, they were so bad at first, and you could have more than 1
>>578901383I miss the old dota scene. Or maybe I just miss being younger
>>578912895I miss facets.Or rather, I miss the good facets they took away.
Why is wind ranger interested where I'm going? Is she trying to ask me out?
>>578914026you can never go back
>>578914059i prefer they just integrate what was good about them into the hero, which they did, cuz 1 was always better than the other, it was boring
>>578914026it was new and fun back then and the players were all young like us, its just a part of life that things lose their luster after time. i miss it too
>>578896141I thought Omnislash cancels when there are no available targets nearby or in vision: are euls'd opponents still valid targets?
>>578914220THEY TOOK AWAY THE GOOD FACETSTHAT'S WHY I MISS THEM
>>578914026It's okay anon to feel like that. We're in it together.
I like this spray.
>>578914397too bad, davion, back to the bottom of the pool with you
>>578914397i will kick ur ass don't u raise ur voice at my michael, im gonna take away ur pc and ur 4channel friends will be gone for a month
>>578914365Yes. Tornado targets are still visible. They are merely invulnerable and untargetable. Otherwise it'd be TOO good of a counter to things, not just for Jugg.
Timbersaw is so fucking garbage without second chakram. I abandoned that hero completely.
>>578914397With facets:>Whilrwind giving AoE Focus Fire>No limit on Shackle targets, can potentially get a ravage with Shacklshot that also gives a lot of bonus damage>Culling Blade on Powershot at level 1Without facets:>nothing>Culling Blade on Powershot at level 25 if you pick the talent
>>578906895>>578908319Thank you both

>>578915181if u really think i'd rather stick my dick in an animal instead of her voice actor u are so far gone, also ur text is all green and slimey for some reason and it stinks bro wtf
>>578915038God, that little slut.
would you say that dota began to die the moment valve started to do everything reddit asks for
>play support>treant isn't banned>forced to pick him to prevent enemy from getting him>if they didn't pick him you're stuck playing the most boring piece of shit hero in the gameJUST NERF THIS FUCKING NIGGER HERO ALREADY
>>578915505ya they should have listened to the green guys they are way better
>Sniper first item MKB>Undying 1-4-4 skillbuild against Pudge, WK, ChenYeah I guess I just didn't support well enough.

whats the breakpoint for immortal on EU? Should I push for it? Im currently 4.5k and actually hate this game but I feel like I owe it to myself to say I reached immortal. I'd be playing mid too so none of that getting carried by spamming the same 2 autoplay supports every game like those dads on reddit
>>578918778>whats the breakpoint for immortal on EUSame as everywhere
How hard is it to just play two games a day and climb that way? Honestly, you're wasting hours and hours of your life if you're queuing 20 games a day and the MMR difference is only going +/-30

>>578919035maybe you should improve yourself first
Update. The forced 50 continues. This latest game, my mid Earth Spirit disconnected every 2 minutes so he was 5 levels behind the enemy Invoker (played by Topson). Meanwhile my hard support furion rushed shadow blade brown boots and jungled and my carry Slark went 2/14 while their team was preparing for the next pro tournament. But I am the only constant :)
