Why the FUCK is blademail an item?

>cheap
>completely hard counters 'being good at the game and having good items and thus, damage'
>there's no counter to it, no bkb, no purge

is everyone just supposed to build blademails late game now? this shit is fucking retarded. you can't ignore the enemy for 4 seconds but at the same time you can't fucking attack anyone.

@144123361
okay kid

Rate my wardmap. Also how can I improve

>sven echo sabre

how do I deal with this? Dazzle?

he just jumps in then bam killed everyone in a single swing.

I've been losing all the time since this fucker and echo sabre appear.

I give it " One Lobster Claw / 10 "

>how do I deal with this?

Carry Abaddon.

JUST
PICK
SLARK
AND
GET
YOUR
5K
FOR
FREE

>predictable generic warding 101

Good thing people in your bracket only deward by accident

Force staff you retard

Kite him around with hexes, disarm him, or just slow him. QoP is really good at all that

WHERE WE AT THO.

I think you misunderstood the purpose of predictions

you want to predict who will actually get those stats, not the person least likely

Bully him in lane
Ward his ancients
Gank him over and over again
Any disables wreck him prior to bkb
The usual support items: glimmer/ghost/force/euls

If you let it go late you better have some huge ass fed carries on your team

Is slark the new Outworld Devourer? Seems pretty popular.

I'll try this. I like abaddon.

Tried, still can't do shit since you can only save one guy. Even with omniknight, motherfucker farms like a fucking chinaman.

What if he gets bkb? I get it, you shouldnt let him farm a bkb but what if it's a carry vs carry sitiuation where everyone insists to play a shit support?

uh are you calling n0tail a bad player?

why is Sven listed as a support?

To be fair to him he's one of the best contenders for the "most different heroes".

OG are pretty likely to be top 3 and they seem to pick nolans completely random shit every game rather than the standard 4 meta picks for wherever they dump him to die.

Observers are different depending on which side you're playing/current situation in the game.

Not gonna happen. Notail has been in a slump since frankfurt major. Change those to Miracle and you're golden.

You just take advantage of your low cooldown blink, and escape him. Go building Orchid, or hell, even Vyse. Allows you to keep him kited way much more, and your dagger itself already slows him down quite a bit.

>>Tried, still can't do shit since you can only save one guy
Yeah and then his initiation is wasted.

>Not gonna happen. Notail has been in a slump since frankfurt major
DO NO LISTEN TO THIS DISINFO.

>AOE stun
>free goodac

gee I wonder

...

Because you can play nearly anything as a support in the first place and Sven has a huge ass fucking stun and group buff which are pretty good for roaming
Having a support who can transition to core is underrated

what if sven ult was purgable?

In all seriousness, it needs literally double to the cooldown

>Pudge on enemy team
>Our solo offlane still goes to the enemy rune
>Gets hooked onto the enemy cliff and feeds fb because he forgot that tangos demolish trees
>pingpingpingpingping

this meme is incredibly stupid and i laughed heartily at it for a minute

what if Pugna was a loli

>heroes of the storm community in fuill dead game mode

God this is almost as enjoyable as watching the sc2 community in 2013

>OG are pretty likely to be top 3

ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

>I'll try this. I like abaddon.

Smart choice, dudester.

REMINDER

>start of game
>enemy has riki/bounty/clinkz
>ping '____ is missing' to remind my teammates
>they get the bounty rune snatched from under their nose

The worst is when everyone gets so focused on autoattacking each other they forget about the rune entirely and some bastard just walks up and takes it

depends if miracle can carry notail

no idea why they keep him around anyway

you ____ me _____ ______ baby _____ _____ like a ______ baby ______ ______ _____ _____

it's true, keep up with the esports senpai.
og got 2nd at epicentre and won slavladder recently, too.

You are lame as a nigger's baby

AXE HAPPENED

FORCED50 FORCED 50 FORCED 50 FORCED 50 FOR CED 50 50

>showing strats on honeypot lans

OG will be lucky to get 5-6

SECRET

WILL

NEVER

LOSE

put more sentries in lane
place more lane wards
change up your jungle wards (what the shit are you doing in the dire jungle wtf

...

>(what the shit are you doing in the dire jungle wtf
most of those panic wards when I can't get good camp blocks because the supports are there

I'll take your word for it.

will he kill himself after they get last place?

Are you ready for best major?

What support can I spam for F R E E MMR?

He looks like that faggot from Game of Thrones that got a golden facial

when immortals 2?

Faceless Void

>support
>gaining MMR

top kuk, pick a core my man.

post predictions
alliance is obviously meant to be at 9th.

>support
>faceless void

he's fallen far

but not that far

>Feeling good and having fun with the game
>Starting to get placed in High skill matches

Slowly doing it.

Carry Abaddon

Wait until the forced 50 kicks in and you lose 8 games in a row.

What should I build on Spectre now since Urn+Drum meme is obsolete?

Only supports are allowed to have no damage

>maelstrom echo sabre pms pt offlane void at 20 min doesn't have dmg
???

...

You could give a fucking tidehunter those items and he'd hit decently too whats your point

>Be playing LC
>Stomping their team
>They have 4 carries/semi-carries
>Thinking it shouldn't be too bad as long as we can close out early
>No one wants to group and push
>Don't get too worried because im getting a lot of duel damage and Medusa can probably help out late game
>Look at Medusa's items and see the typical no damage meme build
>Lose the game with almost 300 duel damage

FORCED 50 TOTALLY ISN'T REAL GUYS LMAO

>two (You) on the same post

this is the best day of my life!

>picked LC
>lost
Wow

you're welcome to do the math buy, just don't forget to trade arcanes for pt.

Was literally the only person on the team doing anything

Stop the memes

why didn't you do more?
fucking nerd if you wanted to win you should have done what was need to win

i usually go aquila vanguard, buildup depending on amount of lane harassement, similar price, you can add a wind lace if you miss the speed and vanguard builds into abyssal if your lineup needs it

dude, blogposting is the biggest meme of all

>get easy kills, lose actual fights: the hero

>A core doing it's job
>Somehow bad

I'm glad I could help make your day, champ

>lose against meme dusa
>blame 50%

>prizepool not even at 9 million yet

>"we need a tempo controller"
What do you pick?

What do you think of this patch dotards? Good or bad?

Do you lack reading comprehension?

Meme Medusa was on MY team.

The enemy team had a Slark, Slardar, Alch, and Drow that all were able to farm and get fed because NO ONE WANTED TO PUSH.

cm

whatever/10

Only nostalgia fags and esports cucks have an opinion on the matter

You didn't read any of that m8.

Naix is easy to kite.

Literally lost 9 out of 10 playing pos 4/5, dont do it senpai.

I think 4/5 is easily the worst position for climbing but it sounds like you're just fucking awful

>pick support
>lose
>pick literally any other role
>win
dotards??

Can someone explain this to me? Is this a meme? Any link to an article discussing this?

steamcharts.com/app/570

Still bleeding hard dotards.

>b-but Overwatch won't kill us

I think you may need a stronger band-aid for this wound lmao

>implying school finishing isn't going to bring all the 15 year old peruvians back

I'm moving to the states once Trump gets elected anyway, fuck this cucked continent.

Teammate just told me that Shadow Demons ult isn't really useful against Sven.
