DotA 2: League of Legends edition

some circlejerking between the anime part of /d2g/
basically ban evaders because they keep getting banned for talking about themselves than dota

don't forget you can now ban heroes in ranked

>6.87

I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering the fountain with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. The embarrassment I feel doing this in front of other female heroes only adds to the allure of the situation. She sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove her boots one at a time. "Is that a boner?" Rylai says. Akasha licks her lips, Rylai giggles, and Shendelzare glares at me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but Tresdin kicks my hands away. "You haven't finished yet." I don't understand because I had already removed her armor, but after she gives me a look I realize that she wants me to remove her shoes as well. I take off her shoes and reveal her gorgeous feet, surprisingly soft despite her being a strong warrior, and extremely sweaty. "Lick the sweat off my feet, squire," she commands me. I hesitate for a moment and look over to the other girls. They all start giggling at me and whispering. Then I feel Tresdin's foot forced into my mouth with the other one covering my nose. The smell and taste of her sweaty feet causes my raging boner to grow even more. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." Although embarrassed, I take all my clothes off. Suddenly I feel my position swapped with that of Shendelzare. Suddenly I'm lying beneath Akasha and Rylai, who had both taken their boots off, and were pressing their feet against my member. "No," Tresdin said, "He's mine." She runs over and gets on top of me. It's only now that I realize that she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that nobody will be able to interfere with us. Her technique gets more and more intense until I am unable to hold back. I cum inside her pussy with the force of a hundred megacreeps. She gets off of me, and as I lay there quivering in pleasure she gets dressed and begins to chuckle. "Only 9 inches? Pathetic."

THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN

REDDIT GO FUCKING KILL YOURSELVES

RRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE dsadasdasdasfxdvzxcfadcs

ICEFROG WHY? I JUST WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO DAMAGE AS A CASTING SUPPORT

EVERYTHING ON ARC WARDEN IS SHIT NOW

yes icefrog, keep buffing visage.

I don't want to live in this mad world anymore.

I don't think he even works on Dota anymore this shit is all Valve

>Mystic Flare scepter duration from 2.4 to 12 seconds

Pugna pick rate increases by 14%

Thanks you Ice Fraud

>have a stable version of the game
>good professional matches, with some imbalances here and there
>Reddit cries like monkeys they are for a new version "just because"
>rush out this turd
ICEFRAAAAAAAAUD

no hablas ching chong

Because now you can just increase spell damage by buying Int items :^)

>they actually buffed centaur
Last time I played he was among the Top Tier heroes. Have they nerfed him in previous patches and now buffed him back?

Morphling

Replicate damage dealt increased from 50% to 80%
Hybrid cooldown reduced from 120 to 70

TIME TO MAIN SUPPORT MORPHLING BOYS
5k MMR HERE I COME

ARE YOU GUYS ENJOYING THE NEW PATCH?

This desu.

RIP IceFrog and the good DotA

is this league?

I'm hearing conflicting reports from /d2g/.

Some say that deathball/early agrro games are dead due to spell dmg changes and items.

Others claim nothing has really changed since rubber-banding didn't get any big changes.

Now I actually have a reason to watch the Pinoy majors just to see what this madman has actually done to dota.

is Silencer meta now?

icefrog here, hope you enjoy the new patch

xth for league of legends

this patch is weird, its like they are just throwing shit at the wall now and hoping something sticks

My boy huskar is gonna be OP again and he's gonna get nerfed to the ground again.. aahahahhaah thank you epic madman

its 'ranked all pick'

>build BM
>literally nobody can hit you if they don't want to die

why buff ench
with that reverse force staff?

Just imagine how shit the next patch is going to be.
There is nothing to look forward to with this game.

It might have a different ending this time... too far

>scan ability
>nerfing OD below troll tier
>blade mail change
>all those passive aghs shits
at least he killed arc warden rapier shit so im content

Didn't lol also have a major patch with hero reworks that broke every fucking Caster?

I guess lolbabbies now have a reason to switch.

is that a clan_iraq reference?

really?

>Huge nerf to Zeus, Octarine and Veil
UNINSTALLED

>this patch

this meta is going to be fucking retarded

FINALLY I'M FREE
GO FUCK YOURSELF GABEN WITH THIS REDDIT GAME
YOU RUINED DOTA YOU FAT JEW

>tome of knowledge
>no +1 tomes
one job you fraud

Haven't bothered installing after my hdd got wiped.
Tell me one reason to reinstall.

Scan really does seem kinda shit desu

Which game are we going to play now?

So why is no one talking about the epic banana meme?

...

BANANAS ARE REAL

is /d2g/ ready for the nonstop silencer picks? I am

But dude
le
Arcana
nerf cause he's popular
XD

OK JUST BEEN IN A CUSTOM LOBBY

THE THREE NEW MAIN ITEMS

>HURRICAN PIKE

LITERAL FUCKING MEME ITEM WHAT IS EVEN THE POINT OF THIS?

>ECHO SABRE

HALF A MEME ITEM, IT'S OK

>BLOODHORN

THIS SHIT IS LEGIT DESU, GOOD IDEA HOW MAKING PLAYERS MAKE A CHOICE WITH THEIR ITEM BUILD PATHS

it's a hidden quest for dota 2 test

Why are you so buttdevastated dotards?

does this work with chance passives?
also double stifling?

Wispers of the old gods literally release tomorrow fami

Overwatch

>Infest can now only target ancients with Level 2 and Level 3

oh come on, why?

Agility heroes nerfed to the fucking ground.

Intelligence ganking heroes given the golden ticket to pubstomp early with quick strikes and early items. But Strength tank heroes have the chance to use stat bonuses and item modifications to counter hard.

>AGILITY HEROES ARE DONE. THIS PATCH. IS THE BATTLE OF BRAINS VS BRAWN!

That increase is literally almost nothing, even most INT heroes would be hard-pressed to break 80 or 90 without a bunch of farm or a stat-stealing ability. All it really does is add like 15-20 damage per nuke.

Lucky for me my computer is stolen so I can't play this shit game or the new patch.

if int gives spell dmg then str should give -armor and agi should give evasion, why does int have to be the special snowflake?

also
>people losing their minds,calling IF dead, "we lol now", "we sc2 now"
i pity anyone who misses out on this

>Each team now has a Scan ability, available on the minimap UI.
>Hero base mana increased from 0 to 50
>Experience required to get to level 8 and 9 rescaled from 600/1200 to 800/1000
>Double Damage and Haste no longer have special rules for being dispelled by Spell Immunity
>Tower True Sight range reduced from 900 to 700 [?]
>New consumable item, Infused Raindrops
>New consumable item, Tome of Knowledge
>Flying Courier: Cost reduced from 200 to 150
>Observer Ward: Cost reduced from 75 to 65
>Town Portal Scroll: Cost reduced from 75 to 50
>Healing Ward now follows Juggernaut by default [?]

League of the Ancients 2.

Its still better than League.

Mage heroes and supports actually do dmg.

>does this work with chance passives?
yes
>also double stifling?
no, stifling is not an attack

>Shaker new Aghanim

youtube.com/watch?v=U2jP77i5Qkw

Ayy, seems fun famalam

>Causes Arctic Burn to be a toggle and drains 40 mana per second. Activation mana cost is the same as the current, 120/110/100/90.
>No longer has limit on number of attacks per target.

So, basically Burn refreshes on hit now? Can I use WW again?

you're in game and this guy smashes your team what do you do?

i actually dont know any more

it hurts

it seems like the game is just getting ripped apart

>playing a blizzard game
>post 2010

I would rather stick with dota and cut my dick off

Good evening guys,

Sadly,

Dota 2 flopped.

Who the fuck is even gonna build this?

>36 armor and health regen at level 7

HOLY FUCK HE'S FINALLY BACK

Im fine with everything
but lack of rubberband nerfs is really sad

So pipe can now be cast multiple times at once and stack or it can be cast multiple times in succession?

Why not just make TP scroll a summoner ability like Scan and Fortify?

For the new thread Earth shakers new aghs

>COUNTER HELIX NOW PURE DAMAGE

IT'S TIME

How do I jungle correctly?

Oracle

>no, stifling is not an attack
it is now

You're not using it so do it.
