nth for Traxex is the best waifu

>tfw no Phoenix hero

r8 my abaddon build

I want to kill myself

I HEARD YOU LIKED GETTING 0 XP
ENJOY YOUR LANE

forgot pic

>no /d2g/ carry to support

Abaddon? More like ABANDON

LOL

Same. Every day for the last 3 years.

Reminder that I play CARRY Abaddon, CARRY Omniknight, CORE CM, CORE Jakiro and I have above 70% win rate with all of them

Reminder that my 50 wins / 16 losses CARRY Abaddon is the best CARRY Abaddon in all the /d2g/

Reminder that that equals to a 34 wins to 0 ZERO loss ratio

Reminder you shitters will literally never be as good as this game as I am despite going full try-hard while I literally play casually with one hand behind my back, literally:
dotabuff.com/matches/1869884763

Reminder that once the Manila Major is over and a new patch comes out that nerfs OD & Invoker, Abaddon will be top pick again

Reminder that I am the chosen by the mist

Counter axe for me first

I wish you could just play old Dota 2. Even just going back to 6.81 would be a totally different game.

That's the worst part about the change. If you and 9 other people really hated a new version of DotA, the possibility was always there to just play the previous one with your mates.

I learry rike this new brademair meta.

>building nu abyssal on wraith king

I bet he didn't even read the description

Literally pointless for Wk now.

replace heart with that one item that makes you hit more or an abyssal

Guess the champion

Purge patch analysis when?

>you only build it when you need to counter something like a prophet/PL/brood
And if you want to farm.

I've wanted to kill myself since I was 9. Things have only gotten worse.

Yurnero.

Wraith King vs mana drainers

Why do you faggots need a ebin dota personality to analise the patch when you have already been able to play it yourselves

It's in the title, faggot

Now that Axe is meta, will he finally get some decent full sets?

batten down muh dick

>OD dumpstered hard
>Invoker only got one nerf to Forge Spirits and an irrelevant cast point
What the fuck Icefrog. OD wasn't even that OP.

>avatarfagging
>constant use of words like "dudester" to make himself recognizable
>making a pasta of his own memespouting and spamming it every thread
>derail thread with off topic shit
>spic nigger 40 years old tranny
Why didn't the mods ban this pathethic human wreck yet?

>No battlefury
It's like you hate that farm YOU NIGGER. There's no excuse for that shit. You're WK with double crit for creeps. You don't wanna cleave that shit for farm? That's like not building a farming item on alch. Total trash.

I have about as much respect for this patch as I do for the dogshit on my shoe. It is reddit. It is video game hotpocket. It is capeshit. It is cheeto dust. I'm literally screaming right now and slamming my arms down on my desk just thinking about it.


It is the most depraved video game infantilized manchild degeneracy. It is saturday morning cartoon. It is non-neurotypicality. It is memes. It is video game. It is casual. It is League of Legends.

Anyone noticing they're being put with extremely low-skill players in non-ranked? I'm seeing people maxing caustic finale first on sand king multiple times, and people don't understand the basics, I've got thousands of games . . .

>being tobi's sloppy seconds

the mental health people tell me I might get well eventually. ask your local mentalist about your prognosis why dontcha

It's also the way Forge Spirits used to work, and made no sense for HP to be on Exort. It should never have been changed away from that, this is more of a fix.

you're shit

3 0 M I N U T E S

Which one of these unplayed heroes should I queue up with next game? I post results after

You ban him

why the FUCK does the ranged creep drop 90 xp now

like whats the actual point of that dotards

lolbabs who try to play every time a new patch comes out or people smurfing

im guilty of this

i go for pants on head retarded builds on my 4k smurf

add me let's 1v1 friend

my name is Snow Sdorms a gomin :DD

>Things get better
>Whenever I was home, after I was done with bawling my eyes out, cutting myself, skipping meals and every other self-harm courses of action a 15yearold could manage, I would turn to Dota, as a last resort. I've known it since the Defense of the Ancients day, and it never left me. I was never a good player, but I didn't care. Dota was the drug and I was the addict, as focusing on landing a perfect Mass Serpent Ward would take me away from the still-open scars in my anus that would open up tomorrow, and the day after that, because my "pussy" needed to be "satisfied" by those 3 people. So, I played. And I played a lot. During the course of a normal game, I met a teammate called Glen. I still remembered that match I was Shadow Shaman and he was Wisp. We were losing badly, and the other 3 teammates started to become toxic. I always tried to be a positive dude in my games, and so was Glen. We were spamming mic to cheer our teammates up. He was cracking jokes about my terrible attempts at Snakeblocking the enemies despite having had a Euls. From something like 3 - 25, we managed to get a crazy number of pickoffs and were able to get our items. Long story short, we won, and I added Glen on Steam. We almost always played daily from 6 pm to 10 pm and would chat on Steam about how we could improve ourselves. As time went by, we became more comfortable with each other and we started to open up. We started to talk less about aiming ET's combo and more about ourselves. I felt, for the first time in my life, as if I was not alone.

Is this what you have in mind?
Things don't get better for the sane people like us.

I'm fed of winning games just because my opponents' team is dogshit

I am so done with this fucking shit.

This game is a mess of code hammered into itself and build upon a complete mesh of instable versions. Every patch that comes out brakes more shit than actually fixes it and every time now since 2014 there has been a 3-4 Hero FOTM trend that keeps cycling to make the game more casual friendly.

Valvo knows for a fact that they can leave the game for broken and dead for months on in that despite all crying, it will still be steam's #1 most played game, since the community is filled with literally shit eater shitlords.

They give zero response, they give zero shits about balance, zero shits about support, zero shits about actual improvement, zero shits about new content and zero shits about anything that isn't jewing kids out of their parent's credit cards.

This is why they can push eccentric and useless, despite really "cool", stuff into the market like the Steam VR, that probably costed both an unimaginable amount of money to produce that still even raw content, and the resources that a company like Valvo would probably never have unless they hadn't jewed over 60 million big ones with DOTA 2 tournaments.

Now just think if all the money that went into the whole VR shit had went allocated into fixing and improving DOTA 2. What kind of game would we have right now.

But instead, we have this, broken, mashed, hammered piece of shit, because yeah, no matter what, YOU SHITSTAINS WILL KEEP EATING VALVO'S SHIT BY THE SPOON AND LOVE IT.

Fucking end your existence, seriously.

makes mid more interesting i guess

i hate the notion of a valve employee browsing Veeky Forums and calling himself a "valvebro"

DONT LET YOUR MEMES STAY DREAMS, /d2g/

Is there is a pudge with shit falling out his ass?
Are you showing your teammates time and time again how to dumpster the shitstains?

...

>play ranked AP
>pudge banned every game

nice la

>implying it wasn't fake and not just a beta tester who memorized a few key changes
He even got the numbers wrong, come the fuck on.

Those eyes. Dammit. My hearts beating faster.

I miss -override_vpk

my pet rats eyes look like those maybe you should get a pet rat

>They already have blade mail because ure PA

fuck all yall second rate e celebs, when is Blitz patch analyses??

Wraith King.

...

I played my first Void game today and won 4v5 as a right click carry. Play carry void user!

Cap said blitz's analysis is "storm is still shit"

Tobi fucked every single female being on this planet. There's no way to NOT be Tobi's sloppy seconds.

REMOVE icefrog?

You don't sound so neurotypical yourself m8

>resort to non-humans for company
That's like betraying my race

Is Hurricane pike on Sven viable? Use it on an enemy and get
>lmao free ranged cleave

That and some occasional Dota Psychology

Because people here are literal shit eaters that can't even think for themselves and figure out what is good or bad in this shit ass stupid fuck easy game.

Seriously, anyone wanting or watching some other fucking shit eating mongoloid do a "patch analysis should literally just kill himself in order to save oxygen in the planet.

Seriously though.

Seriously.

Fucking retarded shitlords, man.

How's Lycan now?

+10000

Build?
If it contains vanguard or radiance, I'll discard it though.

>tfw abyssal axe is now legit as fuck

icefrog is a yuro for sure s m h

Most people that post here don't actually play the game

Quick d2g I need a game I can play with one hand

Icefrog is middle eastern

Who cares he's fired and probably even dead too at this point

Is Doom any different in this patch? Any new meme items I should buy? I don't like drums nerf.

>Vanguard AM is finally viable again

My laptop was stolen. I can't play the game. It was my only friend for 4 years. I'm thinking of buying a desktop now though. But I don't need a desktop to play dota.

So let's say I'm dumb enough to have PA as a favorite hero.
And let's say that beyond that I'm such a retard I'd pick her in a patch like this.

Barring ring of repick what's my best option for success in a climate like this?

Doom is literally just bad Bloodthorn at this point

He's so shit he's outclassed by an item

Hearthstone.

New patch with actual content is out as well.

You know, CONTENT.

Something you don't have with Valve and DOTA.

>6400 gold for 10 damage

midas before boots
you need a dual lane. i stacked with a friend. then treads -> glove of haste -> vlads -> finish maelstrom -> mjoll -> butterfly -> daedalus ->heart

it worked, but keep in mind I'm deep in the trench and stacked with a friend for a good dual lane

Dumpster the shitstains. SnY skadi or something. Lifesteal, echosabre or some shit. Damn I hate PA so much.

Literally just build her the same as you always do only this time you can pray on retards who came back to the patch and haven't played in awhile or are trying stupid shit that doesn't work.

>its a "come across a DD rune while playing Treant with Echo Sabre Armlet episode" episode

>Can't kill it with nukes
>Can't kill it with physical

I might just ban this little bastard every game, not a strong hero but it irritates the hell out of me on either team, just like a Tinker

He's total shit
Even worse than last patch since Bloodthorn is a better silence than Doom could ever hope to be and he no longer has a range advantage over melee heroes
If you insist on playing him do so as a bottom bitch support and spend your gold on wards and smokes to make your actual useful teammates carry your fat ass

So I just went to reddit for the first time to find out what it's about and I only see this.

How the fuck do you use that website?

How often do you play Void?
You can only judge an item build properly if you play a hero enough times in different situations.

butterfly was to avoid manadrain, heart instead of ac because most damage would be from lesh

Umm, did you know that the oxigen in our planet is literally infinite?

NEVER MIND. IM A MONGOLOID

Step one: go to your country's politics subreddit
Step two: use the word 'faggot'
Step three: get banned

...

this was the first time. that's the point: my first time; your first time.

What commie shit is this?

What gives a change "dotaness" and what doesn't?

Can someone past /d2g/ on the box man's face and then just have the boxes be different patches?

What makes you guys REE the most in dota?
