>tfw no Phoenix hero

have sex
post pics

It's not as questionable as the ANY rapier antimage because Kunkka could literally kill him in one non-crit attack if he doesn't have heart. Even the Io could effortlessly solo kill that antimage.

GOLEM GET YE GONE

What heroes are the best for rushing rapira?
I want to make some games miserable for both my team and the enemy's.

can i get banned thanks

kunkka

Post CP lad

just post post porn you retard

but its a blueboard what if someoen gets fired becuase of me

Last time I watched porn I got promoted

dont post any porn please im currently working at my job at the futanari templar assassin factory business is booming

Match outcome aside, how do I into Alchemist aside from learning last hits? I don't feel like I've got acceptable items for 20+ mins

then spoiler it and say it's porn, you'll get banned but people who are at their jobs will know it's porn and not click it

Then get fired anyway because Veeky Forums at work lmao

Am I allowed to be viable yet?

MODS

thanks my boss just gave me a blowjob

>you will never eat strawberry flavored lanayachan penis popsickles

nth for autism

I just lost with a safelane alchemist on my team who had like s&y ac moonshard and some other crap items who riced all game. He did shit damage against their 17-0 troll warlord.


I am enraged

your build is shit but i dont think even if i told you the correct build it would help much

unless you sold all your items and bought these ones for the gold you got, if thats not the case then there is no hope just play dota for like 1 more year then ask again

Is my boy TB back?
That Meta BAT change is kinda decent.

>Metamorphosis no longer increases Base Attack Time
>Conjure Image damage taken reduced from 425% to 400%

SHRIEK

will I be the first person ever from /d2g/ to have sex?

>Slardar getting panic nerfed even though he had a garbage winrate in qualifiers
>balanced supports like Venge getting nerfed while broken pieces of shit like Lion left alone

>silver edge was a good item for literally like 2 weeks

fun while i lasted i guess, back to never bying it again

>AoE Bounty Gold based on level reduced from 8/7/6/4/4 to 6/5/4/3/3 per level
What does this mean?

how is a 300 gold recipe such a big deal?

Reddit wants Fnatic to be kicked from the major.

Thanks Reddit for bringing Madara to Manila, you are truly our greatest allies :^)

nerf to the memeball meta 5 man starts at 10 minutes bullshit we've been playing for ages now

>Greevil's Greed no longer benefits illusions

was euls buffed?
i dont remember...

Don't have sex

>tfw you'll never get ganked by this meepo squad

Heroes give less aoe gold per level.

Teamfight nerf.

does it interfere with my last hitting abilities?

>Random visage buff
>it's actually huge for ganking
VISAGE MID META WHEN?

I predicted this change. Finally radiance alchemist is total shit hahah

you wont be able to disassemble it

now its amazing becuase a lot of items use ultimate orb so you can just put it isnide your lothars

there were games where i made silver edge like 3 times on slark and kept disassembling it for better items

based I was hoping for hero brawler to get nerfed for awhile

>yet another balance patch
>still ignored

FUCK YOU ICEFROG

All he needed was mkb. But troll is probably stronger than alch because alch relies on burst, not sustained manfights. Alch can attack almost as fast as troll if you go moonshard,mjolnir, ac and that shit because of his low BAT.

>Nerfing terrordude
Why?

>1 year
Why what do I need to learn

>tfw alchemist is no longer goodNaga

to get more than 2 items as the carry that farms by far the fastest in the entire game

im sure 75% of the time you were just running around in circles becuase its not be possible any other way

radiance manta alch wasn't even good
Next you'll be getting raped by the blink dagger, armlet, blademail, mjollnir alch.

Mjolnir alch>radiance alch
I won the DEBATE HAHAHAHAHA GET FUCKED MMR SHILLS

So did we get past "axe is op" meme?

He is still worse than he was in 6.82 and back then he wasnt op he just countered the meta.

>radiance build gets nerfed
>this means that you were right?

are you retarded

Those are both buffs.

>having armor
>having magic resistance
>being awake

based

Wait, this is real? I thought this was a joke. Those TB buffs are literally d2g-level shit.

Whenever I fap, I get weaker. I can't perform as well during my martial arts class. When I fap before sleeping I wake up late and feel like I've slept 4 hours when I've in fact slept 8. Sex can only be bad for you because it exhausts you more than fapping. So yes, it will slow down your reaction times.

I traded sex for d2g. sofarit's been working out pretty gud

Reddit tears incoming. They just won't let terrorblade be a good hero again.

>venge nerf

huh?

I'm right now. There's nothing you can say now.

The scary thing is that I actually said this in d2g a few days ago "they need to make greevils greed no longer work on illusions or make it work for half the values". And they actually did it.

Still no Techies changes. Hero will be dumpster for another year before he probably gets buffed the wrong way then nerfed the wrong way again,

I mean, one can't know from the image alone but it was a "win lanes aside from Alche's cause he gets bullied, lose late because the enemy has Axe we fed them" episode so I didn't have all the space in the world to farm
I mean you're right that it's a shit outcome but I hoped in some item build or farming tips
Also I had to go safelane ans I'm not sure it's the best lane for alche since he only has sub 50% winrate in any lane other than mid

>AoE Bounty Gold based on level reduced from 8/7/6/4/4 to 6/5/4/3/3 per level
does this kill the memback?

>not fapping only when you have a headache

>blademail goes through bkb

Girls hate video games because they make guys feel better than girls ever can. Guys also give more attention to video games. Cap admitted to having had oral sex while he was casting a game, but he became so focused on the game that he forgot he was getting blown.
Watching dota>sex

Pros are gonna stop playing alch just because he can't do naga things as effectively right? He's still a strong hero, but they'll never touch him again will they?

that's pretty huge isn't it?

>I'm right now. There's nothing you can say now.
congrats, you're still wrong tho

a radiance alch still outfarms mjolnir

she's consistently been a top tier support for so long now

You always have to rush your farming item on alch first. That's how you farm the most.

I have chronic headaches.

>buffing envy right before the major
I guess valve really wants to push this Secret meme

Get your brain checked bro you might have a tumor

I doubt it. Radiance alch lost around 40-30% of his farming speed I believe.
They should be about even now.

did i somehow become a better player or somethnig?
everybody seems to commend me, im not even asking for it

Is this a patch icefrog would come up with?
Buffing tb by reverting some of the nerf?

Tumors don't cause headaches. There are no sensory nerves inside the skull.

Alch still has two illusions farming and shorter BoT's

Just simply math 3 units farming is better that one plus a static charge

>buffing envy

these are eg buffs, terrorblade, storm and nerfs to bh

Mjollnir after the nerf right? Can't think of anything else

is aui terrorblade good? i dont remember

That's why you're cute. The cutest people are always the ones that don't try.
