>BETTING
IS FOR DEGENERATES

>slark can TP in shadow dance and its impossible to stop

even more fucking bullshit this hero is capable of

>b-b-but someones bad teams like vega draft him and he loses so he's bad XDD

i swear he must have a 70%+ winrate when drafted by T1 teams

10

MEMES
EARLY

...

THE ONLY EUROPEAN TEAMS
NAVI CANNOT BEAT
ARE OG AND TL

How aren't they third potential invite from Europe?

>>slark can TP in shadow dance and its impossible to stop
what are AoE stuns

>aoe stuns don't exist

?

nth for Traxex is the best waifu

>8 memes early

navi can beat AF or Kaipi

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY LEMAO

>Pick Slark
>Do a coinflip
>Result determines if you win or lose
Again.
How is he OP?

>Empire has even less results than Na'Vi's current lineup you idiot.

maybe because they faced an actual team and not alliance in manila LB?

Will swindle ever recover?

>>BETTING
>IS FOR DEGENERATES
Someone make new thread

this will just get deleted

RUSSIAN FUCKING SHITS

>get in game
>every single other player is a thirdie

>Truth getting deleted
?

anyone got the sheever pee oddshot link?

>buyback sounds intensify

becuase europe doesnt deserve a third invite now that secret is gone

canonical invites so far:

eu Liquid OG
cn Newbee LGD Wings
sea Fnatic MVP
na Col

Nah, these threads don't really get deleted anymore it seems

>Wings
VG.R

>COL

Are there any more?

Artstyle...

>dendi
yet retards will still blame that on slark being OP I guess

>cn Newbee LGD Wings

>Wings
top delusion brah

FUCKING MINE DO FOR POSTING LIKE 5 POSTS EARLY


WATCH THIS ONE STAY UP FOR DESPITE BEING 10 POSTS EARLY

...

Wew lad can you stop being triggered so hard?

Wings won a lan stomping liquid 3-0 in the finals

if you honestly believe navi deserve the invite more you are the delusional one here

cute!

I meant of the lina but this is good too

I don't know where people find cosplay pictures from these events

>not betting your hats for literally free money
Do you unironically have autism?

You know that it was a fluke since they haven't replicated their success in any form after it?

It's like Vega winning that Frankfurt (IIRC) vs. Secret and vanishing to months of no results.

Hell the current game is probably the furthest Vega has been since that?

...

I don't think navi deserve an invite but neither do wings
they were horrible at manila like very very bad

>navi having the unkillable timbersaw while the only reason vega are still in the game is because of slark

totally balanced heroes guys, I swear xd

Fucking retards

>game that would have been over 10 minutes ago is now going to be dragged out another 10-30minutes because of how balanced slark is

amazing fuckoing logic

one team got success but couldnt replicate it

the other team didnt get any success

LETS INVITE THE TEAM THAT DIDNT GET ANY SUCCESS XDDD

why not kaipi over navi?
i mean they didnt win anything too

Come on user, how much did you put on Vega?

that lan win earned them a manila invite, their performance at manila proved lan win was a fluke and that they don't deserve a TI invite.

What are you on about? the only CN teams who shoudl get invited are LGD and Newbee

Reminder to drink a lot of water!

>4p1 wasn't a thing

>angling your monitors like that
???
?

Tournament Victories > memes about performance

$3.82

I am not salty for the bet at all, I am salty because there's a slark/timbersaw/lifestealer in every fucking game.

Can't wait to see low quality shit dota at TI then when teams that clearly fluked (Vega, Wings) get invited and play like shitters KEKEEE KEEEEK

Lets also invite EG since they won TI

so the conclusion is to invite a team that didnt do anything over a team that actually did something

just fucking listen to yourself for a bit like step back look at the results and ask yourself how retarded could i been to think that wings deserves the invite less than some shit team i think should get it that didnt win anything

there are 8 invites
please tell me 8 teams that deserve it more than a team that won a lan stomping a tier1 team 3-0 in the finals

ill wait

>liquid fans terrified about wings because they revealed that liquid are chokers
lmao

>timbersaw takes 4/5 of beastmasters hp

explain this dotards

alliance deserves it because they stomped liquid at starladder 4 months ago :^)

why is timber so op suddenly

did the madman buff him again

>trying to equate random games with a tourney final bo5
my sides

TI6 Invite list (8 only)
>OG
>Liquid
>Na'Vi
>LGD
>Newbee
>MVP
>Fnantic
>???

It could be Col but personally I feel they've fallen off alot

I change the way I sit and how the right monitor is angled all the time.

thanks matt!

how is the secret bootcamp goin?

>people complaining about 'le op heroes' when it's not even been a few weeks
Come back if pros haven't figured out a counter in a month or two.

>random games

It was the starladder finals and a bo5 iirc user

>why is timber so op suddenly
STR was buffed and is the new meta, so obviously Timber is good.

Anyone with half brain knew it after reading the patchnotes.

weird there's no anime posting thus far in the thread

bulba thouhg

@145963358
dumb animeNEET

most likely DC

they didn't perform at manila but they have shown potential and the memes would be off the chart

plus I wouldn't be surprised if Valve invited them and VG.R just to keep misery/ddc as players who attended every single TI

It's DC, only NA team worth inviting that hasn't broken the roster lock.

>Slark.
What a fucking hero

xth for best sisters

>Str hero gets fucked by an hero designed to fuck str heroes
58% in this tournament.
You know ho has over 70% winrate with the same number of picks?
FUCKING VS. WHY YOU AREN'T CRYING FOR VS NERFS

>the unkillable hardcarry with FREE dewarding and FREE hasterune
so balanced

It's not only that you trashcan
*Whirling Death debuff duration increased from 11 to 14 seconds

*Reactive Armor regen and armor per stack increased from 1 to 1/1.2/1.4/1.6

the guy is unkillable the moment he gets a bloodstone.

>venge networth

HOW
O
W

>not banning Puck against Vega

>FUCKING VS. WHY YOU AREN'T CRYING FOR VS NERFS
Uh, supports can't be OP dude.
I mean, ignore all the work Vega's team is doing to keep the Slark alive, it's totally all fn on his own, honest!

>paheal down
s-Sauce?

Yeah sounds about right, forgot about them. I don't think valve will do 12 invites this year, just based on the amount of teams that are absolute dogshit/swapping players.

>SLARK health regeneration only works during ultimate.

Fixed.

>equating winrate between supports and carries

fn 1v9

I am actually in Istanbul, could go and take a look if you want tbqh.

how sway

channeling ppd

>36 essence stacks

>only slark is doing stuff
>no ghost scepters on navi
why

fn fish nigger

do you want to stumble upon EE in an orgy with CS:GO sluts?

>Slark
NICE ONE ICETOAD

u might as well delete the hero

He had 75% winrate in the shanghai major, ie before the two major itemization buffs.

In manila though the teams that played him suffered from the reshuffle and fucked about with his winrate.

IS LIQUIDS DRAFT TOO FOCUSED AND THE SAME HEROES?

>Slark doesn't build Echo Sabre
>He wins

hmmm Dotards I thought Echo Sabre was OP on Slark?????

/r/dota2smut

>Slark is balanced.

>paheal

knew it

They are indeed. I mean, if you look at their finals, their drafts only consisted of Lycan into Earth Spirit or Disruptor.
They really have to work on that

>0 deaths 30 bs charges timber
>still can't do anything because your team can't pick for shit
God I know that feel too fucking well.

Kuro chokes when drafting

Liquids drafts are shit

they pick 3 right clikers 1-2 defensive supports or 1 defensive+1 teamfight

the moment they fall behind they auto lose as they have no way of getting back to the game

They only win when they facerush the other team

>sla'vi

AYY GOOD MORNING FAGGOTS

Would he let me join in if I expressed interest in Toradora?

>this timbershit
>complaining about slark
