first for force staff gaming

>2016
>No cat hero
dotards?

goofballs

1-1 doturds :^)

Reminder to idiots:

The arcana vote is a repeat of the 2014 Summer Sale.

If you wanted (still want?) your vote to count, you have to vote in the first few minutes the vote is live. Nobody plays for the losing team, so your best bet is to push your favorite hero ahead and away from "Most Contested" as soon as possible, when your vote has the biggest % impact.

That's how Io got so far in the arcana contest.

ursa is a dogshit hero

Mirana is fucking trash is the game goes over 30 minutes you're guaranteed to lose if you have a core Mirana on your team

when will force staff get nerfed?

I fucking hate Nahaz.

awful lategame, beit in heroes (ursa mirana vs tb invo), builds (eblade blink mirana) or players (>envy >lategame)

boys boys boys

Leaked IO arcana concept

why's this asian dude whispering

>Secret lose a game
>"so what happened, /d2g/?"
Is this damning proof that EGays are the worst fanbase in dota?

nth for Traxex is the best waifu

>secret can't do shit in teamfights
that's because of their draft. Ursa & mirana are terrible in teamfights

Mirana is a terrible hero in general IMO

He's from China and the Chinese are notorious chainsmokers on-top of their already sewer-level air quality.

Chinks are so fucking stupid honestly.

>Secret bans Terrorblade

what does Na'vi do now?

EG managed to get btfo by secret in 15 minutes then lost to a slavstack that will disband after the tournament

Now that OM and FV are meta, what about ES?

Wouldn't he be a natural counter to all this SD illusion spam?

dont post this here, there are pople who take the "pick heroes that counter him" meme seriously

EG would've 3-0'd Navi by now if this wasn't a honeypot

>Amerikeks post on an Amerikek website during Amerikek hours

whoah my man

Nahaz is a fucking lunatic, why do people keep hiring this guy?

>Lunatic
>Professor
>Has a supermodel wife
?

>tfw lost a drow game

I failed you :(

EG and secret have the worst fans, its not even a contest, they are sad beings

>wearing pinstripe for a broadcast

Why does still fucking happen and why don't people stop them?

>supermodel wife
>has white hair at 30
>is an autistic man child

Give me proof

who is the big asian guy?
i want him to cuck me

>why do people keep hiring this guy?
Valve doesnt

I would bet money that he does his casting for free simply because he enjoys doing it it. He's pretty well-off.

>:3

if hes really 30 then he is either a sociopath or an autist. I thought he was like 50 having a mid life crisis

F-F-FORCED FIFTY ISN'T REAL GUYS MY MASTER GABE NEWELL SAID SO OH BOY I LOVE BIG FAT MAN COCK

Seriously when is this game getting actual matchmaking that puts you in a team of your peers instead of giving you shitty retards to balance out your W/L so the other team can "have fun too"?

because everyone else is hiring him, in the same vain as that dumb fuck slacks

DONALDI SUPPETA MIDAS

>wisp got 14 million votes

god I hate the people that play this game some times

maybe you just need to git gud

he's like 40.

>chill professor casting dota during summer break
>sociopath
???

Slacks is actually a good MC though. The pro players are almost all autistic and edgy around normal people. He's just a weirdo who enjoys dota so they relax around him and he gets them out of their shells.

I don't remember ever seeing Kaci getting a genuine hearty laugh from a pro player, yet Slacks does it all the time.

>149514893

if slacks is invited to TI, im killing myself. game is dead. scene is dead. screen cap this.

Get good fagot

>EG managed to get btfo by secret in 15 minutes
by Na'Vi

get fucked

it's the support's turn to get arcanas

if forced 50 is real:
why are you 3.3k instead of any other rank?
why do 2ks consistently lose to 4ks no question?
why do pros all have high ranks?

perhaps you're just at the rank you're meant to be at???

s-sorry dondo-kun

Io is a hard carry, homie. I don't know what you're talking about.

>chill professor
youtu.be/7fBfmPENyK0

good jokes

>io is one of the least picked heroes
>leddit is giving io votes anyway
literally why? everyone on reddit is a mid or feed faggot like their idol rtz anyway, what a fucking waste

Io a cute

>literally the least played hero in the game
>implying support cucks have enough money to buy an arcana

laffin @ u

D E N D I

is entertaining

I guess people think Valve will be so distraught at the lost sales, and do a second Arcana anyways

Enjoy your half assed Arcana of particle ball and nothing else you fucks. WE COULD HAVE HAD WR'S SPINE FIXED

>Slacks is actually a good
stopped reading there

this is true, problem is slacks sometimes take it to extremes and becomes super cringy, he just needs to reel it in from time to time

post his wife

beta males are the ones going into STEM

they make more money and that's why they're the ones raising your kids

Chill? He's manic 24/7, probably on adderall or something

/d2g/ is only shitting on Io because Reddit is voting for her, prove me wrong

kek stay butthurt and flatchested

even a ball will look more polished than slutranger

post dotabuff and show me those io games faggot

>be PSG
>be trying really hard to be a nice guy
>get my behavior score all the way up to 1795, highest it's been in months
>don't abandon muh games, only intentional feed about 50 or 60% of games
>get this
>behavior score back to 1

it's literally impossible to escape

I don't have a reddit account and I voted for Io

dotabuff.com/players/171488246/matches?hero=io

has no charisma, is a little less awkward then kaci, etc., and just is generally distasteful. also hes disgustingly fat.

kid literally spat memes until twitch chat xD posted to reddit begging organizers to hire him. is this really what we want our scene to be?

SWNL

>I don't have a reddit account and I voted for Io
that just makes you honorary reddit

>limits his perspective because he can't handle contradicting opinions
rofl, when you grow past your teenage years you might understand

QUICK GUYS I NEED A FREE WIN WHAT HERO DO I PICK

What about CM?

pugna

>Least Picked
>not worth picking in pubs because of it relying on your partner to not fuck up
>its a ball of particles, all we will get are shapes and colors you can mix and match

Io is the meme pick. All the good picks that would force Valve to update the base model are gone.

>sonneiko wyvern
GO NEXT LA

epic maymayyyys xDDXDDXD WISP ARCANA LMAO

reddit has the cash so get used to it

Trust me I'm 6k

riki

Remember how much shit cappa got when he was breaking into the scene? Or OD? They got a lot better with time.

Slacks needs to change aome shit bot god damn he's better than any MC we have at the monent. He's the lesser of some terrible evils, such as fucking sheever.

Your shitfu couldn't even beat fishboy.

static field is the worst passive of the game and you can't proof i'm wrong

slardar is getting a remodel

jug already got a hidden model update

pudge is good enough

everyone else is irrelevant

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>@

>Drow Ranger
Autowi--
>Mirana

fuggg

its another drow loses to WW episode

when will secret realise this

how was I supposed to know what reddit was doing?

pudge

just being missing is enough to send the entire enemy team into a tower-hugging state of panic. shit's fucking magic.

riki is much more than free win, its freer than free

>no source for Slardar
Mirana is also picked so often and she is garbage looking.

Jakiro needs a slight update, but I'd like Viper to get a Venomancer tier remodel

>people not understanding the point of the io arcana vote

the point is that they have to make two arcanas. one to actually sell copies of and one that they will sell basically 0 of.

it's just a fuck you. if io wins the second place hero will also get an arcana. 100%.

>Jakiro needs a slight update
>Slight
His entire body is fucked up.

at least i can jack off to sheever. and when slacks MCs, i need a few days for the physical cringe to dissipate before i can fap.

In the end only valve loses from this kind of thing, how many people are actually gonna buy this shitty arcana if it wins (wich is very very likely)

In the end its gonna be either pudge (most picked hero since forever) or IO (nobody picks him).

Calling it right now, IO will win in the votes but pudge is gonna somehow be the winner by 1% because valve is gonna rig the fuck out of the final numbers.

yeah FUCK valve for making a free to play game
