Dota 2 - /d2g/

true, some people just get mad at everything...

>slardar finally gets a new model
>soon posts will show up of ugly slardar with "I miss him guys"

Fuck these retards.

Can any1 tell me why slardar is picked over centaur, doesnt make a lot of sense to me

centaur has the worst fucking cast time on his stun
double edge is great except it fucking nukes him as well
return is only good for killing low skill WRs
ulti is only okay, doesn't have the same utility as FREE vision and FREE armor reduction

But Storm looks like hot shit , his old model had more of a menacing (not really menacing but kinda eerie look) while keeping the silly fat man attitude , and it actually looked like a monk (kinda like buddha) it somewhat made sense with his spirit part of the character.
>implying anyone will miss slardar model
thats up to how better / worse the remodel will be if we ever get one. Although probably never desu

What if they sold Skeleton King as an Arcana for Wraith King...

nth for ppd

It's be practically extortion, literally everyone would feel forced to buy it.

So basically KDA is the only thing that matters and winning doesn't mean shit. Guess I'm just gonna go back to my 3k account and try to grind to 4k then because I can't be assed to play 40+ games again just for a chance at that.

>muh mlg score xdd
Jesus fuck , just stop embarassing yourself. and fuck off back to normal skill you pleb.
Fucking uninstall

Aghs ult has no utility exept your team taking no fucking damage. I see he can be garbage in pubs, with in a team with coordination it seems busted

Check out Regalia of the Wraithlord set
use the showcase camera and try to look under his helmet.
Do it.

I'm not saying my MMR is good, I'm just saying it's probably faster to grind to 4k that way instead of starting a new one again. Haven't played the game in a long time so I tried to start fresh with a new account but I suppose I should have done my research beforehand.

shit I think I see it
bruh

Not busted enough apparently
Abaddon has a similar aghs and yet he is hardly the scourge of the pro scene
Aghs is a huge investment to put into these sort of heroes

Yes player performance has a role in calibration

You think just because you won against retards means you belong in 4k or some shit?

when you first make an account there is smurf calibration

when you first play ranked there is account calibration

smurf calibration can move you up or down 2000 MMR, account calibration moves you only about 500MMR

the amount you move up or down is based on hero dmg, GPM, APM, XPM, hero healing, tower damage etc based on whether you win or lose

EG.Bulba

I played like for the first few matches due to just starting againg and also not caring much for unranked in general. I played more tryhard in the calibration matches but I guess it was too late by then.

yea so you're shit deal with it

Echo Sabre/Jungle Troll Warlord is viable

how soon do you upgrade shadowblade to silver edge. immediately? after 1 other 3k item? after 1 5k+ item? after 2 items? etc

>used to play this game all day every day a few years ago (thousands of hours played)
>solo queued almost all my games, no friends
>got tired of it and quit because of what valve did to it
>played other games for a few years
>played every so often and didn't really like it
>played it recently and I like it and wanna fulltime play it again

is it worth it /d2g/?

Depends on the hero and the enemy line-up

If I'm playing Slark then usually immediately after just for the stats.
Otherwise I do so only if/when I need to give the enemy carry the -40% outgoing damage debuff or when I need to disable an enemy heroes' passive

im like you. ive played since 2012 but stopped since the start of last year because the patch was so boring. i think it was the memeback patch

been playing cs go since but valve has fucked that game too

i saw that 6.87 came out and now im reading d2g again contemplating if i should return

Don't the game is going down the meme drain.

ok im playing right now as sven.

i got treads > oov > mom > shadowblade > armlet and i dont know whether to go crit or silver

planning to get skadi then sell mom and armlet and get butterfly and satanic. not getting bkb because the disables they have all go thru it

im 10/2/5 right now becasue they dont buy sentries. this is 4.3k mmr btw

> sven
> not go blink + echo

Guess who!

Results may surprise

its 4.3k mmr buddy. shadowblade is superior to blink because noone buys sentries until 5k

i buy sentries in all my shitter games and win every one where i do

if i don't play support and ward/deward team just wanders off and feeds

i learned this habit early on

>arcane rune quest is literally rng to finish, much less find 3 of in a game
why is this allowed

elder titan

Shit was fucking gay, not to mention the one I just finished with the magic/pure damage per 10/sec

if you win every game you sentry doesnt that prove that noone (but you) sentries in those games

so unless someone is vsing you, shadowblade > blink for sub 5k

>lose to a 6 bfury pa
>because there was 12 kills in the game at 40 minutes because my team was terrified to do anything and just mexican standoff all game

for sure, i was by no means disagreeing with you but rather backing up your comment with an anecdote that it's so easy to win by warding simply because no one else does but me, yet it makes all the difference in the world

how come people are asspained about the LoL riot shitposter? i mean...dota 2 today isn't exactly what I would call fun, the fact that supports in 2016 are pure stun/healbots as opposed to the 2011/2012 supports that were able to diversify into nukers and gankers and murdermachines means the game has become so fucking boring and team based that showcasing your individual skill has zero impact on the eventual outcome of the game.

your draft will carry or lose you the game in the end, due to entropy mistakes. if you go 15/0/0 as a support after 20 minutes and win all your lanes and get all the outer towers...you're still a support even if you have a necro3, bloodthorn and bkb. you won't be able to push highground without your team or fight alone. you get nothing for operating alone, other than trading 1 for 4 and giving a 5000 gold swing upon death. how tedious.

With lothars:
>Go red
>shadowblade
>attack 5 seconds later
>lose 5 seconds on ult
>maybe kill someone if they don't have a single 200 gold item

with blink + echo
>Go red
>immediately blink and kill someone

>pick timber
>hit the 10 times tier in less than 15 minutes
>suddenly it stops counting despite being a 50 minute game with aghs
Bull fucking shit I constantly shit out 100 pure damage per SECOND in the last 10 minutes alone
Quests are fucked

so what do i do? gonna go crit > skadi > butter > satanic but when do i get silver?

Had to get my stupid quest done so I just nuked the shit out of everyone to get the magic DPS

Was spamming CM to try and blizzard for it but couldn't get the win as well as the dmg

why does this guy get more pussy than me

Asking the wrong user I think you want

>supports can do nothing past 20 minutes
How is this any different than 2012?

What lane and skillbuild is best for legion commander?

but thats me

jungle

So like...lore wise shouldn't ET just be able to wipe the floor with anyone?

He made the world ffs

Jungle for 35 mins, only max stats and your ult and pop it on every one you can't manfight

ohh, then maybe I meant someone else
either way my game knowledge isn't good enough to give that kinda advice yet so yeah hope someone has an answer

Depends on game
If there is enemy with good passives then you upgrade as soon as you can

No
Be free don't get on the train again..

go crit senpai

what went wrong

my first time playing visage

huskar and nyx fed for the first 30 min until they got megas

Why do people insist on making vanguard first when they're building abyssal. Vanguard on a farming carry is the most stupid thing ever.

It's a viable troll. Troll isn't viable atm though.

Support is all about early game and helping your carries

Good support with smart ward placement and gangs will win you the game

Don't know what's so boring knowing that one ward or smoke turned the game

DELETE THIS

Ur 2 k MMR

And he is a literal god

>not going radiance necrophos

>playing a glorified ranged creep

>start up a game
>ally picks alchemist
>I support
>is this nigger for serious?
>he is
>does a shit job at supporting
>I still have to buy wards because there are 4 in the shop
>ends up going 1/7 and has boots, windlace and half an aghs by the time we lose

I just want to have one game this week with semi competent allies. Is that really so much to ask?

>clan_iraq's Patented Support Alchemist Build will never again be viable

Is AnneDroid Llama but actually kinda cute?
Reddit loves her already

>fat
>dyed red hair
>probably doesn't even know the difference between an android and a cyborg

Yeah, she's reddit as fuck.

...

>clan iraq

And muh winrate ratio

>since spring cleaning update

>probably the same cunts that cry about muh cancerous community

Lel faggots

I'm over here bangin your gurrl

You only get manta for these things
>illusions
>disjoint
>self purge

Will any of these things be relevant or important? Consider Manta, otherwise don't get it.

still has nigger lips

>dis joint
>self purge

WHAT?

>>dis joint

Most projectiles (attacks or abilities) can be dodged by using something that disjoint (like activating manta style) mid-air.

>>self purge

You can remove most debuffs by activating manta style.

did not know

ty

manta is nice on luna and mirana
I like sny on gyro

what is your mmr
how many games of dota do you have
whats your region
