PREVIOUSLY ON DEE TOO GEE

nth for Traxex is the best waifu

>Navi get $62,749 for a minor LAN

Why even go to these when the Majors pay so much more for getting like 5th?

Kaipi will win ti6

>9 memes early

fuck valve
hon revival when

>OG will win a TI because of RTC

>all these secret fans jumping over to OG for TI

How you people live with yourselves?

>get a nice winstreak
>next game, immediately a guy starts feeding mid, for some inane argument
>goes 0 - 31 - 0 in 15 mins
>next game a guy abandons in the first minute for no reason at all


is this the magic of valve matchmaking balance?

because a major isn't on and 10k for a few games of dota is pretty good

...

Reminder the ENTIRE point of the role switch was to prove how broken phoenix is

Based n0lessthan3lans

>Win two lans witin 6.5 months
>YOU ARE THE BEST EVER TEAM COMPROMOISED OF BEST SUPPORT CARRY MID CAPTAINS EVER

>Even as a support Miracle- carries his team hard

DOTARDS????

>deadwood never ever

No salt but this patch allows bad teams to beat good teams

No homo

--------------------

Q - Uncontrollable Giggling - Target Self

W - False Flag as Gay - Target Ally channeled (250 cast range)

Blitz pretends to be a giant homosexual faggot and rubs an allies' shoulders applying a Weak Purge and healing them for 20/40/60/80 hp per second (can be cast even if stunned). - 30mana/s 22 cd

E - Ask Purge for help - No Target

Blitz summons his friend Purge Gamer for 40 seconds - 100/125/150/175mana 80 cd

>chinks and gooks
>our guys

Whats the difference between HON and DOTA2

Please release the blog you wrote now

Top TI3 is easily OG/Liquid/Newbee

None of the other teams are even fucking trying.

Iceiceice is unironically the ourest guy in existence and I don't care what filthy redditors say

The prize pools and little else

shut the FUCK UP nogames

go ask /hong/

:^)

>he doesn't like ChuaN

one is dead, the other isn't

hon was dota2 before dota2 existed then icefrog stopped working on it AND IT WENT TO SHIT with all changes not done by icefrog

they literally turned a great game into a big stinking pile of shit

Can someone recommend me a mouse for good doter 2. My Deathadder is double clicking and its fucking my gameplay

I want to believe Liquid will win TI6.
I Really want them to win.
I care about this more than the icehockey finals.

OG will pick phoenix and win TI6 on the back of miracle and crit

I'd still consider Dendi to be a mid/high level player and Sonneiko makes incredible plays sometimes. It's hard to remark on Artstyle, being the pos. 5, but Ditya Ra has some major direction issues in teamfights and General's positioning is literally at a 2k level.

literally anything, you should be more worried about strain from long periods of use. So find a mouse that you find the most comfortable.

>implying the return of Zai doesn't mean that EG will become the first team to win back-to-back TIs
They will crush the qualifier and then return to glory.

Shouldn't OG be fined for that?!

>ponyfaggotry
>joke
It ceased being a joke the moment the first pilot episode ended on 2010/10/10. In the core of it is simply a cartoon aimed at little girls that is 5/10 instead of -1/10 like usual.
Fluffy crap isn't related to /mlp/, most of these niggers never even watched the show, they were there just to le epik troll/be spoiled little shits that weren't beat nearly hard enough by their parents.

we all do m8

we all do

Swindlezz is a fan of the male form

just clean it up its a easy fix retard

Logitech G300 anything more is overkill

Just the direction Dota 2 is taking

post the blog already you fuck

hon wasn't afraid of using mechanics not supported in the wc3 engine

>get fed up with bullshit fights with GF and broke up with her
>just rage jerked off to a rape fantasy she sent me a few months back

im feelin pretty pathetic lads, which hero should i spam to help this feel?

Literally the same chance as Cloud0 winning TI5

Shit game
It will never be balanced
Hat simulator 2.0
Fuck valve and fuck all you faggots

if you have varanty just get them to fix it dipshit

>WWE Money in the Bank tonight
>Also the very last game of the Apehoop finals
>Would still rather watch DotA but there's no eSports on for the rest of the day

REMINDER THAT THESE ARE THE DOTA EVENTS UNTIL/INCLUDING TI6!

So, starting tuesday, Open Qualifiers. Saturday until Wednesday Main Qualifiers. After that:
>Global Grand Masters, July 3 to 10 (online)
>Nanyang, July 6 to 10
>Summit 5, July 13 to 17
>Starladder I-league, July 21 to 24
>Pro Gamer League 2016 July 22 to 24 (China)
>TI6 Main Event, August 8 to 13

W-what now?

They don't take Na'Vi seriously. That draft was super disrespectful to Na'Vi.

fugg

Not if PPD keeps drafting like a retard or Fear's arm breaks.

Roccat kone pure desert strike

go fuck her

ppd please, you have to prepare for the open qualifier, not shitpost

we watch the euro with our good friends over at /sp/

neither is doturd2 and look where we are
like literally we're playing perma -em mode compared to before and i honestly wouldn't be surprised at all if it turned out that pro teams pick supports instead of having 5 cores just because their contracts forbid exposing the state of the game

>>Global Grand Masters, July 3 to 10 (online)
never heard of it, the fuck is this?

Sonneiko is 100% a good player
It's weird how CIS has like 5 solid players but they're all on different teams

It really was, but in all seriousness if Na'vi couldn't beat that fucking draft and lineup then they have some MAJOR issues. It was also designed to shut the faggots who are saying that Miracle is the only reason that OG is good up. Even with Crit as core and Miracle as position 4 the team was DESTROYING Na'vi. I mean sure this isn't a tier 1 game but still.

>ban five of miracles carry heroes
>deny three of their favorite heroes by picking them (invoker, elder titan, void)
>still get ass fucked by miracle support and crit core

YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP

Well they were right not to, navi just don't have the chops to win a LAN

Liquid will win TI6

...

I want to fuck Soe

Nigga do you fucking even GRASP the amount of games old Na'Vi used to fucking memedraft?

zowie fk2 or fk1 if u have baby hands

everything else is a meme

play the game/overthrow

Soe makes my dick happy

HoN didn't fuck up the gold mechanics though, like "IceFrog" has done with Dota 2

I would be happy if it was a Solid vs Liquid grand finals and Liquid finally takes the cake. I love both the teams and either one winning TI is a treat as far as i'm concerned.

HoN had genderbender skins

>mfw imagining femvoker

?

I honestly like valve, it's doturd2 that sucks.
No surprise a game is shit when it comes from a Fundamentally Flawed Genre.
I have more hope for Competetive Matchmaking for tf2 than for this game.

How can you like TEam Liquid's boring ass three right click core shit with 1-2 healers (or healing abiltiies)

t. 5k stuck in 2k trench

The game's about more than just drafts, liquid's playstyle is fucking great, Matu in particular is a lunatic and Mindcontrol has some truly phenomenal plays.

>Not Awoo-Lycan
Pleb

REMINDER THAT AT 9EST GRANTS GOING TO BE HOSTING FDL/Shazam

Hopefully it'll be actually good unlike these finals.

>literally funding islamic terrorism

You are missing the point amerilard.

>only a few more months of this being a relevant shitposting image

i gotta enjoy it while it lasts

What ever the holy fucking shit I dont understand how you can find their actual playstyle exciting or interesting

its the most one dimensional tier-1 team has ever gotten in years

just right click shit and heal
if you lose then its done no fall back no comeback

They also didn't remove 3 entire damage types just because they were too hard to understand for people who weren't even taught about them from the shitty excuses for "tutorials" this game has.

>Na'vi getting fucked by a Memepatch Team
>Again
>Just like TI3

Closed qualifier teams are:
>Ad Finem
>Flipside tactics
>Kaipi
>No Diggity
>Polarity
>Power Rangers
>Team Spirit
>Virtus Pro

?Uhhhhhhhh did he tag the wrong OG player???

So are you euroblubber

I miss Mixed damage

yeah tier 8 na dota will be good lmao

the only fun part will be spamming beesa playing the carry for the first 10min about it

So, we getting TI invites tonight right?

lmao

deetoogee btfo

He is le ebin contrarian like dee too gee XD

>Realized just now that g1138 was greenmarine

HOL UP
SO YOU BE SAYIN
ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR DOTURD FANART ARTISTS
RESPONSIBLE FOR IMAGES LIKE PIC RELATED

WAS A DRAWFAG FROM Veeky Forums?

WEW

Tell me about this Dazzle

Why is he rushing Aghanim?

Almost every single lineup nowadays has some form of healing. Dazzle/Oracle/Phoenix/Witch Doctor. Almost every single lineup has right click too. This is a very superficial way of looking at it. What sort of teams do you enjoy that play differently? What teams do you like that can't be reduced to healing + right click?
