pick tinker

go jungle at level 1 with iron talon
cut cliff trees, stack 2 camps at the same time while hitting and iron taloning big creeps, spam march
get soul ring via courier
keep spamming march
march at 1/3/5/7, laser at 2/12/13/14, missiles at 4/8/9/10, rearm at 6/11/16

done correctly and efficiently, you should be able to sell back iron talon at 7:00 to 7:15 and buy your finished boots of travel and teleport home. Then teleport around a few times to get bottle. Then set immediately to vacuuming farm AND spamming missiles to contribute to fights. Missile spam from 7 minute travels completely wrecks most people so take advantage of that to zone out their carry and snag some kills and win some fights

arcane boots as your first item after bottle
then you have the choice of proceeding directly to greaves OR getting earlier blink dagger. Blink is more defensive and lets you farm in an unsafe map, greaves wins you fights and pushes once you've got it
once you get greaves or blink, get the other one next
after greaves+blink, pick up aghanims OR get an item to counter mass blademails (euls / octarine / bkb)
now you're slotted out and you need to replace bottle and swap it in/out when at fountain with whatever last item you pick up (sheep, octarine or bloodstone)

the easiest way to win games is to remember that ANY TIME YOU BLINK IN YOU DIE. If you get cocky and go aggressive and blink in to laser someone to death at melee range, their ally will be waiting in fog and blink stun you and you ded. Your job is to spam missiles from fog of war and stay in fog of war and not expose yourself. Even blinking in for a 5 man laser bounce in a teamfight is usually not worth it

you should only use sheep when someone is trying to solo split push your towers and backdoor you or whatever. So if a 4000 hp carry tries to sit on top of your tower alone with mass regen and just soak up missiles while he kills barracks, you can stop that with sheep.

Is that supposed to be qop?
Fucking terrible

Top quality game Valve.

Truly the best in the biz.

>it's a the same guy tries for the 300th time to force his awful title for the general episode

anyone have any pro player snapchats??

inb4 LUL normie uses snapchat LUL

t. Op trying to et attention for a useless thing no one gave a shit about

Lately i've been getting into the All Random scene.
It's surprisingly fun! Its probably because i can never decide what to play :I

this fuckin russian lc picker is in my friendlist for some reason
and he's been farming rampages on south africa with the same 9 people over and over

>dota2 gen

yeah reported
someone make a new thread pls

Seems like beta yuro cucks Re waking up

it's been real folks see yoi tomorow

What's the consensus on the new items?

I like infused raindrops :3

once upon a time people bought vlads because they claimed a hero like lycan would run out of mana without it

then icefrog made a 225 gold item with the exact same +mana/s
and you can buy it in multiples

Who is the cutest dota pro?

haha reddit haha!!

Make a reddit thread about him and get him banned

What if every shot from Gyro aghs was flak?

>Tumblr image

It worse than I thought

nice team game dotards

are you really getting triggered but a file name

dead game/thread

L O L

What's the point of building Manta on Medusa ? I'm really curious about it

then it'd actually be somewhat viable
as it stands now it's just a memeitem you get when you want to lose the game

jungle veno is actually pretty legit guys, starting items are kinda questionable tho. On the one hand iron talon lets you get your lv3 pretty fast but once you go to ancients it loses it value. I think basi is the way to go

nigga tumbler images are the 1st in google search results

the usual manta shit: disjoints, dispels, splitpush
i dont think it synergizes particularly well with her but what do i know

that is literary what happened

Maybe situationally useful as a purge but in 99% of cases it's pretty awful

>Get actual solo offlane

Split shot works with illusions. She also needs the stats.

Why the hell would you google "Gorillas at a zoo" for a reaction image? Why google a reaction image to begin with?

Only people who dont regularly use Veeky Forums need to google images to post

the idea is that you are getting an item that gives you these things
>movespeed

>strength
>int
>attack speed
>damage
>way to purge off silences or heavy DoT's

most people see it as
>2 illusions
>FREE damage?
>oh no wait they didn't do any

It's a decent item to buy on her but not first, and don't go linkens aswell
you need a raw damage item on top of it to do fucking anything
you could also just get casual yasha or fuck even SnY is a better alternative

>mfw enemy brood has to share her lane

ezi lane boys

That's great and all but

>125 mana

Reminder that Eul's is better than Manta on Medusa but it is still not an item to be building on her.

inspire others!
post your binds!

>312 with mana shield

People think it's good due to outdated builds, but it's usually terrible because of how split shot works and how she builds. The stats are terribly inefficient for the price.
You should only build it if you desperately need the purge or something.

>You should only build it if you desperately need the purge or something.

>What's the point of building Manta on Medusa ? I'm really curious about it

Don't bother with them. Only a complete fucking idiot gets Manta on Medusa.
We've been over this for years and proven these idiots wrong with arguments, facts and math.

Yet what is the "best" argument these idiots have?
>y-you can splitpush!

>Reminder that Eul's is better than Manta on Medusa but it is still not an item to be building on her.

Diffusal is better than both.

Alright, I'll give you that Diffusal vs Eul's on Medusa is a bit more even of a match.

Diffusal
>FREE EAGLESONG
>Purge
>meh mana burn

Eul's
>stop people from JUST TPING OUT
>Purge with no charges, but high mana cost
>FREE MOVESPEED and MANA

Point being, Manta is shit in general but ESPECIALLY on Medusa yet retards still build it anyway.

I miss the old pl

>Point being, Manta is shit in general but ESPECIALLY on Medusa yet retards still build it anyway.

People will keep building it until the end of time. It took pros several years to even start building Skadi over Linken on her.

>I miss the old pl

I miss it when the game didn't run like massive shit and gave me black screens in the middle of a match.

Is MoM a dead item again?

i miss old void
i miss that time skeleton king had health steal that got removed for some reason
i miss skeleton king

Hey, Can somebody post the "did you say, Free gold?" thing? I found those things entertaining.

yea, ever since it got nerfed patches ago, where the fuck have you been

>i miss that time skeleton king had health steal that got removed for some reason
Because it was fucking broken. 30% hp swing for 15 mana

why did they add/remove that ability so fast?

Sheever never had an originial thought in her life. She's never for the underdog when it comes to game predictions.

>bawww why doesnt sheever like my shit team :,(

that's because sheever is an idiot and doesn't understand pro dota

nearly five years of watching professional dota

and someone with zero experience understands it better

>go jungle
>get stable farm
>go lane
>its literally a gamble whose result is dependent on other players

now that's autism

Nah, I don't particularly like Diggity because they are Tinker and Naga pickers. Still, Sheever is dumb.

>Dota 2 threads so slow only 1-2 are enough for a day

What's happening anons? Are we actually PLAYING Dota 2 now?

how to do it

i feel like spamming the russian flames in allchat now

>anime
>not belonging to normans
Stop time traveling.

because it was the most retarded thing ever

it was both the strongest nuke and strongest heal in the entire game

>I miss the old pl
No one does.

>after all this i get sent to low priority

no matter how much i tryhard, valve sends these agents to demoralize me and wage psychological warfare against me

at least i had some low priority fun as pudge...

guys what if

what if echo sabre bounty hunter for double crit

>khezu
topkek, like my 4k pubs

First Synd fucks up the first defense by wasting his ult, then Khezzu does this. What's the point of drafting wombo combo if your team can't execute.

Anyway, they deserve it. Naga pickers btfo.

>trying to get to 9k

give up, you're not miracle

Literally exactly the same as when I go captain's mode with my literal 3k stack.

5k will do

if you get send to low prio that means your a bad boy

and guess what bad boys get on their team as a punishment, more bad boys

if you want to have the least amount of game ruiners you have to control your autism so you get good boy points and get more good boys on your team

pubstack play from a somewhat legit team

disappointing i guess

>synderen
>legit

>synderens team
>"""legit"""

did they invent a third strat or is it still:
a) void or enigma or both
b) ask qojqva what he feels like playing and hoping he can win 1v5

I feel bad for qojqva, being on these shit teams.

Don't listen to the other guy if you want 9k keep trying
Just don't ruin yourself over it

>over recent months
>fps drop
>increased load times
>keep getting black screens forcing comp reboots
>only for dota 2

they have to watch Sheever all the time while they rae playing? Hardest LAN ever!

"Good" players who are on tier 2-3 teams are usually there for a reason.

spring cleaning 2017 will fix it

also it might just be you since i see no changes and i literalyl for like 2 years play on a broken 550ti that overheats if i do the rendering thing over 40%

the game looks like a calculator but at least it runs smooth so i dont care

>jungle doom
>afk farm all game
>midas into 30 minute radiance is all he has to show for it
How do people like this even breathe

Which doto has the mightiest uterus?

Sheever

broodMOTHER

>you will never breed a family of strong warriors

>also it might just be you

Others have had this issue if you just google it, but there is no solid solution for it.
I have played this game for over 3 years and I have never run into this issue before until shortly after the spring cleaning update of this years.
There are no memory issues with my hardware.
Literally only Dota 2 has issues, no other game be it Witcher 3, Doom and countless other games.

So no it's not just me.

does this not include the enemy team?

do bad boys get matched vs good boys?

im a bad boy but i play to fucking win, how/why do people just decide theyre literally going to play to lose after queueing to ranked?

even if i flame teammates i still help them as much as possible gameplay wise, like givin them bottle charges and arcaning near them etc

very low fps on top lane with immortal gardens for me

like 40~

i have a r9 290 and fx 8350, makes no sense for dota 2 to be so intensive

ill put this like this:

you are a bad boy because you flame
someone else is a bad boy because he afk jungles or steals lanes or just feeds on purpose

the game cannot distinguish between you two and just puts you on the same team anyway

flaming is pointless if thats really all you do, if you have serious autism just mute chat every game and dont write anything

open console type
developer 1
dota_game (it will fill in something like debug)

at the end you will have your good boy points, 9k is a tru good boy

The client in general has lower FPS on average and increased loading times. However both of the spring maps have severely reduced FPS.

>flaming is pointless if thats really all you do, if you have serious autism just mute chat every game and dont write anything


i can't
as soon as people actually listen to me i win games, and that happens sometimes

Wait until you've finished puberty.

also, does it put bad boys on the enemy team? is it the whole queue or just one team

you dont need to flame for people to listen to you

i use mic to avoid typing

its becuase i wont sperg out on a mic and call everyone retards that should kys themselves etc

its also becase valve looks for some key woards in chat that lower your good boy points

literally writing anything else than good luck have fun is a risk
