MIGRATE TO THE REAL THREAD ON

RECYCLE THIS LATER

So what are you predictions for the open qualifiers?
EU I actually don't have a clue.
I guess I'd put money on EG winning but only because their region is so fucking shite

what went right

crossposting because why not

What went wrong

WAS MADE FIRST

WE'RE ALL ON

REPORT AND DELETE THIS THREAD

making a prediction on 1024 teams is actually just asking for disappointment

Not really when there's only about 10 or so notable teams in each one.
I can't think of a single massive surprise that's come through open qualifiers

MIGRATE TO THIS THREAD FELLOW GULAGITES

WAS MADE FIRST

>Have Meepo, DK, and Enchantress on your team
>Don't push

Just the 2k being shit as usual

Holy shit kill yourself senpai

randomed CK twice yesterday

minus armor crit is sleeper op

THIS THREAD WAS MADE FIRST

Post pics of Dota players in cars

Because an early game potential 4 second ranged stun is way more devastating than a gap closer

Hey,

This is going to be mostly a personal post so don't bother if you are one of those "lel blogpost" kinda people;

I've spent my last 4 years playing this game. I was at an almost-pro level like 2 years ago and practically didn't improve at all since then while everyone moved on. The main reason honestly is that at the start I got to that point really quickly (1000 hours in I was already on par with tier 2 pros) because I actually was open to learn. I have been trying my best to still be so of course (as my lifegoal has been to win TI for years now) but I honestly have no idea how to not be salty and give up at the simplest fault.

Mind you, this was something gradual that happened over the years, I still wasn't this bad 1 year ago for instance. However, the point is that I have become the cancer I hated (and still hate). I still won't feed on purpose or anything mind you but in a mental sense I have no idea how to not give up.

I'm tired. I've tried taking a break and doing other stuff and what-not but I'm even worse at being patient about other things now that I've spent literal years on this game.

On the rare occasion I happen to play with top tier players AND happen to be feeling well I still perform at least on par but yeah, I've simply forgotten how to enjoy this game (or anything else for that matter).

Any advice? /blog

Oh and seriously, I know this sort of post isn't appreciated here, but go fuck yourself, I've been lurking literally since before I started playing (late 2011) with literally no posts so don't bother pulling your bk2tumblr or whatever card - not that this text will stop you)

...

this is the last time they spoke as friends

im not reading all that

Who even took this photo?
It's a literal masterpiece.

hello dota posters

who the fuck is that in the backseat? artour?

gonna go with dunning-kruger on this one

When will Funnik win?

...

ARE YOU FAGGOTS SATISFIED
NERF ONE OF THE BEST COUNTERS TO TIMBERSAW, TINKER, AND SLARK
THEN WHINE ABOUT TIMBESAW, TINKER, AND SLARK BEING OP
GOOD JOB DOTARDS

buckle up

How the fuck do you build Brewmaster to not auto lose games?

I have him for daily challenge so ring of repick and urn of abandon are not viable

dunno what the point of going with that is when I already acknowledged it's my attitude that's the problem though

Janny is pretty based but needs to be a bit quicker tbqh.

Cheers, janny

Like I was saying in the other thread, why would you get drums on CK when you can buy echo sabre?
>gives 10 Str and 10 Int
>mana regen
>double strike to help proc crit

THANKS MODS

>Shitposted tiago thread got deleted
Based janny

this worked for me for 2-3 weeks when the option was released but basically what started happening afterwards is that I mentally imagine every single one of them to be complaining and talking and such in the worst possible manner at which point the mutes never help.

Artour Teamkiller

woah muh dick

i am a nadotard and i hate nadota
why is my country so SHIT t this videogame
please explain it to me

lets remove the thread and annoy eveyrone becuase it had a le funny site in it

HEY JANNY LOOK

WWW.REDDIT.COM

DELETE THIS THREAD BEFORE SOMEONE SEES THIS AND GOES THERE!!!!
ITS SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!!!

Played him a lot when he was op last year.

Go offlane.
Passive level 1.
Boots + Bottle into Treads Dagger.
then Vlad/AC and teamfight + tower every time your ult is off CD.

I think you could go Talon now, I wouldn't do what S4 does and go Midas after Dagger.

Just abuse your free crit when you can and slap the support.

Kill yourself, you shitposting monkey

my guess is that you were never as good as you thought you were and only now are you slowly realizing it
what was your solo mmr when you were "on par with tier 2 pros"?

Has dota ever been on the bottom row like this before?

So now that the dust has settled, what's the actual state of the NA dota scene?

Funny, I imagine the opposite.

quality over quantity, kid

EG could still wipe the floor with most EU and CN teams

>autistic retard rage-sperging out of control

nice

?

No one goes Drums on CK anymore and everyone goes Echo Sabre, you haven't discovered some super sekret build.
Armlet Echo has been the standard since last patch. The only people who don't would be turboshitters who may as well not be playing the same game.

5-6k when that meant something

still stuck there

All the time when there's no esports

ye

rolf of course he wasn't

most people here don't even realize how different pro dota is to any pub game

it's completely baffling to see anyone claiming they're tier 2 when they never even been in a fucking tier 3 team

whos your waifu? pa is mine

>TI starting soon
>thinking the dust has settled

That boy ain't right.

>he still hasn't realized that I've found a way to block all his new hashes with 1(One) filter entry

I'm around 5k and I still see some CK going drums without echo. That's what I'm complaining about

>his waifu isn't viable
lmao

l-lanaya

it exists

I can't say the same for UK

What are some good mids for getting out of normal skill?

Porbably a better question, how do I learn to counter their mid? Any classic examples?

>Sure you are, it is your job, agent.
Um no it isnt im just here as a fellow user

>I'm saying what your boss does. He isn't your friend just because he feeds you.
where did i say we were friends?

>I get it, you're mute, that is why you talk to your boss through posts instead of simply talking with him.
I don't understand the point of these kind of posts really its just meaningless filler

>I suppose you didn't feel comfortable with them, considering the quality of your posting.
o i do. But no video games get made anymore
>I'll refrain from calling you a fedora,
Um the only fedora here is you. If you, your boss, your boss bosses your boss bosses bosses etc who believe in all the memecrap Phds who study whatever you allow in universities came up with despite them not knowing anything just like valve's psychologist and every psychologist in general specially the conductiivist ones

>I will just say that Dota isn't the only videogame out there. Really! It is actualy quite completely garbage compared to most of them.
Um im not talking about just dota. I would appreciate you fucking off from these threads tho. why does everything have to be turned into a military asset?

>Are you crying over your keyboard? Better hold it, your boss will call you a pussy if he sees it.
Didn't you read crying or not crying is meaningless, everything is. I know your brain cannot process too much, dont worry

>You're here.
how is that proof

>Already forgot?
you are copying me yet again what a faggot

>I'm just a concerned civilian, you're the NSA/CSI/FBI/rus agent. Stop with the disassociation, i know your life is so shit you just wish to forget you exist.
my life is good, would be better if certain someone stopped killing the planet including his own country and filling everything including his own country with niggers

>Unlike you, I'm not on a schedule.
but you have 8-10 hour shifts and theres no one during aussie time.

My Waifu is the purest of all waifus

I'm gonna marry Shendelzare!

It's time for Slavs to win TI

>tfw tier 1 and there's nothing you can say that will make my confidence and actual skill waver
inb4 post dotabuff
Nah, don't want you losers stalking me.

what is this shattered skies crap, it looks like a ps2 game

>Gives birth to thousands
>""""Pure"""""

hey trixi

while that is true, I was at the time taking games from navi, mouz etc. (who were actually somewhat relevant back then)

mind you, I do acknowledge that I was never that good, the issue is that I've lost even what I had previously

who?

fng is the prettiest dota girl

is NAdota the fluffy ponies of DotA2?

fotm game

just like dead by daylight or whatever it's called... ah, I remember long ago when I cared about that type of games

...

kys

its not fotm its just what the most popular streamer is playing so he gets it good view numbers

How do I squat better /d2g/?

I have Slavic heritage but I can hardly squat 2 minute before my legs start aching.
