Dota 2 General - /d2g/

you don't need long bkb charges on ember though

>deathball is shit
>rat is shit
>memepush is shit
>4p1 is shit
Reminder there are people in this very thread that can't accept that dota is just a shit game.

Oh man, you missed some Drama. James got fired directly from Gabe, Gabe made a post on reddit himself that was tl;dr "James is an ass we won't be working with him ever again"

youtube.com/watch?v=aVerBZfwWAs

true, but he was pretty absent from most things going on in dota anyways.
also, no more bruno ;_;

I miss Statsman Bruno. Why'd he have to get a valve job?

Right, can't have good things now can we

Fucking hypersensitive cucks ruining everything

It was made worse. Don't kid yourself.

>memefighting now gives less gold
>harder to come back from rax because super creeps give less gold

You got baited he was merely pretending to have down syndrome.

I'm being compelled towards quitting this game because I'm becoming a normie who can't handle being stuck to my PC from anywhere between 20 and 75 minutes to play a single game of dota.

feels bad man.

reminder that you're either team /l/ or team /ss/

there is no middle ground, not even traps

I genuinely don't have fun with dota anymore, the only way i can play the game is in q's with friends, and even that gets fucking infuriating. There's no way to just win by being a good player anymore, when I farm I lose if my team is doing bad, if I fight I get pounded because I enjoy split pushing/tower killing. I jsut don't like the game right now, nothign is decisive, there's always a way to lose. I played 4 games of ranked today and lost all of them, and I was so angry I just felt disgusting. I remember being able to out farm some dumb fucking spic rampaging on my team, because heroes weren't worth the gold, you could alwyas win with good play. Fuck this game since comeback gold has existed, what an unbelievably casual fukcing garbage mechanic.

whats new gulag

>you can either dress like a hipster faggot or an autistic redneck

hey guys

it's me

>when you play support bitch
>get 3 assists early in the match
>have enough gold for wards the moment they are stocked at all times throughout the match
>constantly have 3-5 wards on the map at all times
>some faggot spams "NEED WARDS"
>clearly no wards to buy besides sents and i usually have 1 or 2 of those up as well

can you faggots stop doing this? its infuriating as fuck. they clearly never use the map as they still get caught out by Pudges and other ganks.

I instantly report anyone that spams wards when i have no wards to buy and all wards are placed.

you think I'm happy about it?

I can watch esports but that's only because I can get up at any given time

timber is the most closet op hero this patch

probably the most broken since troll

jesus fucking christ he is literally unkillable and can tower dive at level 4 with his free 40 armor, 40 regen and 1000 pure damage combo

>VISAGE KEEPS GETTING BUFFED

how long until people pick up on le balanced ghost gargoyle?

>wards expire while I'm dead after a team fight
>WE NEED WARDS OH MY GOD REPORT CM

kuyashii

>1k pure damage at level 4 with only 1 point in his damaging spells
are you retarded

>d2g tells me i should use quickcast
>turn quickcast on, takes a while to get used to but i manage
>decide to play earth spirit with quickcast on
>fuck up every single time

i shouldn't have fallen for the 'le quickcast is le better' meme

those were separate points

but good luck stopping him when he literally takes zero damage from towers and your retard teammates let him have a 28 min bloodstone with 19 charges because he can just tower dive and chase forever with zero consequences

We did it, Reddit!

Why is nightstalker so shit now compared to 6.81

What if Wraith King could phase shift into his Wraithfire Blast and appear at the end of the projectile?

>he doesn't mute his teammates
REMINDER
FOR YOUR BEST DOTA EXPERIENCE

snd_setmixer ping vol "0"
dota_minimap_ping_duration "0"
dota_chat_mute_all "1"
voice_enable "0"

>what does this do?
In order:
-Sets the volume of pings to 0
-Sets the duration of pings to 0 so they wont even show
-Mutes teammates and enemies
-Disables voice chat

>why would you do this?
Tell me the last time you heard something from a teammate that was worth the time it took you to read it

>this guy again
oh my fucking god

what if your mother could phase shift and appear at the end of my dick

i will kill myself if you get anywhere above 1500 mmr

yeah he is getting buffed a lot.
he is just kind immobile and not great at team fights. since the meta is either team fight or heavy ganks, there's generally better options.
but his birds are OP and you can abuse many things with them, like backdooring and BoTs.

Infused Raindrops and Tome of Knowledge are so fucking good on poor supports goddamn.

downloading the replay to see how much of a downie you are in player perspective

That a skill rating?

if there is one single hero that you should use quickcast, it is earth spirit. gitgud

He has a nuke that deals more damage the more hp is lost around him and 2/3 aoe stuns how can he suck at teamfighrs

I lost a game to a 0/36/5 Slark today because after getting massively ahead from him feeding us, my team started to chase him wherever he went. The enemy team decided to play it smart and just follow him around and then gank the shit out of anyone who kills him and make big memeback money.

shit worked and we lost at 70 minutes because I was the only person that saved for buyback

Earth Spirit is pretty much the quickcast hero.

your own fault for not ending the game nerd

He dies super fast and can stun chain MAYBE 2 guys one time per fight and his birds die to a soft breeze with more than one person around.

you got next level'd m8

eh, I don't take away my part of the blame.

I played earthshaker so I could only do so much tower damage.

we had a fucking shadow shaman and he'd rather spend all day farming and drop wards to gank someone than just drop the wards and take a tower.

what killed us was that we had two melee cores and me that would die to axe's blink blademail if we stacked up.

God I'm fucking shit

i wont do this every game, but sure is hekpful to mute pings, holy shit.

thanks pham

his aoe stun is unreliable and his nuke is conditional. and you should learn how to read, i never said he sucks, i just said there are better options like disruptor, phoenix, earth spirit, etc

Which Dota heroes would be fun to fight against as a Souls-like ARPG boss battle?

ok here's a pro tip
DON'T USE YOUR FUCKING KEYBOARD FOR CAMERA CONTROL

>jakiro
>invoker
>terrorblade

>souls-like

pls stop this shit

>Terrorblade buffed

What is the world coming to

You mean MH-like ARPG boss battle.

okay but why

>bristleback
>spectre
>pl
>slark
>invoker
>arc warden

>sniper
>infinite range
>perma headshots you
>cant get near
>die

kek, somebody should get on this shit

Arc warden is an MMO boss.

riki

WASD master race tbqh f a m

broodmother

It's almost like people hate that they have to adapt to their situation now!

t. 1 mmr

Team /l/ all the way

>Using your mouse to control the camera
It is ok m8 not like i needed to move the camera and aim my spells at the same time

What if I like both?

I don't get it

why do people hate having easy camera movement?

>>invoker
How are you going to dodge Cold Snap?

>>>bristleback
How are you going to dodge his Quil Spray?

>>>spectre
She doesn't offer anything fun other than her dagger and ultimate which is kinda boring since it's only going to be 4 illusions max... Terrorblade would work much better with his reflection considering it's not an ultimate and he can do it more often.

>>>pl
He would work as long as he has low poise so you can clear off his illusions

>>>slark
How are you suppose to dodge his attacks if you can't see him?

But unavoidable damage is what makes Dark Souls

visage would be pretty cool

Erf speereet

timber, though reactive armour would have to be nerfed

Holy shit tell me someone else saw Attacker's mid Kunkka play.

>gets ganked by jungle Doom and mid Invoker
>manages to kill Doom and get away

>>clq quit
youtube.com/watch?v=YSlwq54ckEM

I got one.

What's with all the Mexicans in this game? There's been like 1 other guy each game that can fucking speak American.

>faceless void
>earth shaker
>ogre magi

that video is a fucking joke
clq is literally becoming reddit and i quote
"trolling and griefing in video games, it's actually a scumbag thing to do."
for Veeky Forums this is obviously a bad thing
but my personal opinion, i really think this is good for us in the way that: clq is happy = more videos

damn, just got outta of a match and Lost

im going to use those commands. the only downside is that i talk to a steamfriend during matches occasionally. its going to be a pain having to change those last two whenever i play with him.

someone needs to post this video on reddit pronto for free imaginary internet points

holy shit this thread is dead

I killed someone this time. My K/D is going through the roof.

Reminder that the only acceptable teams to root for at Manila are CoL, Empire, and Alliance.
