first for my boy artoozy

>falling for honeypot group stages

Just a little bit of wishful thinking.

I hope he wakes up every morning just searching the ceiling for a reason to keep waking up.

third for ogre pics

>wanting wings to win
fucking gooklover kys

>jewcuck leaves secret
>gets to play captain in OG
>his new team is doing great

>our boy rtz leaves secret
>new team cucks him into playing shit heroes like razor instead of letting him draft
>they lose
HEHE RTZ IS BAD AMRITE TOTALLY HIS FAULT

Wings reminds me of 2014DK, I love their style.

Reminder to root for our gooks, MVP.

>shit heroes like razor
I agree but

>letting him draft
nigga what

nice captcha

I would, but minor k success leads to torrents of kpop spam. So they're destined to always be abhorrent pariahs.

Way to poison the well for their support, kpop faggots.

third for dead game

Best girl is streaming!

y/n?

Reminder that booty assassin has 100% winrate this TI.

Reminder that we are watching the Olympics and posting on based /sp/ and /int/

Thank you based flags for auto-shibbolething non-whites

thanks you crazy gooks

When are the trove carafe and lockless luckvase items tradeable? Aug 14th like the battlepass immortals?

...

where

any cleavage?

>cleavage
she doesnt have tits

...

A man can dream.

is your body ready?

60$ for 9 immortals and 12 compendium levels.
What the fuck Valve?
This is your worst offer yet.

I miss when tusk was meta...

>alliance and ehome
back down to the lower bracket kek

post em

???

Wow this alliance game vs eg was intentional just to get back from jimmy getting into the winners bracket

new chest with 2-4 decent immortals
only thing is, 1 chest is 3.5e

THREE POINT FIVE EUROS FOR PROBABLY NOT GETTING ITEM YOU WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE

Trove Carafe and Lockless Luckvase
Open your goddamn game before shitposting you faggot.

???

When are the treasures/items tradeable? Can't find any info in client or on the blog.

>3 day break
What the fuck, lazy shits

the same people own eg and alliance

uhm it's a beta?

>I have Envy and Bulba on my team.
>My feet hurt.
>I want to go home.
>I miss bone.

Why are ehome murdering everyone?

I'm making a webm showing the new items in a gay spinaround fashion + their spell effects.

Where is liquid?

...

superior strats

I just don't see OG coming back after being knocked to loser's. BigShitty would tilt even more than usual.

and what if they dont get knocked into loser :^)?

>Dyke haircut
>Disgusting tats

When will Yames fix her? ;_;

MVP will 2-0 OG with 2x sub 25 min victories.

I have no idea what I'm doing

Hopefully Overrated Garbage will not win this TI. It would be the worst TI after rigged 5.

They won't get past MVP thats for sure.

How do we deal with the booster problem?

4-5k is a cesspool of account buyers that by no means deserve to be in this bracket. You can identify them immediately by their 2k playstyle.

I'm 4.4k and I have to triple my usual efforts to win because of the shit stains I'm matched with.

no you're just a mid 4k player, get used to it.

>Binnland

>the meta is so balanced that d2g can't complain any more hence it being dead.

>invoker
>void
>balanced

i miss tusk/techies :(

>Mirana
>SD
>Oracle
>Balanced

How do you tripple your efforts in dota?

Do you just decide, that this game i will play three times better than usually.

But What Does It Mean?

So, at least until now, why is TI itself feeling a lot less hype than Manila?

I feel like the games were so much more exciting during it, and this just feels.. shallow.

he takes three times as much pre-game meth if someone dies in the first minute

YOURE A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE AND DESERVE 9K MMR, YOURE SO MUCH EBTTER THAN YOUR TEAMMATES.

>watching Na'Vi vs. OG:
>Na'Vi are just laughing and smiling in the draft before OG.

I don't even know what to make of that team anymore, lel-.

I hope they go far, General-Sonneiko-Artstyle are the most entertaining bunch imho

>le balanced meta
>same few heroes every game since the start of this year
I dunno why iceshit did not put at least 1 balance patch out before TI its so boring to watch.

>tfw dusgg isnt meta

Icefrog didn't put out a pre-TI balance patch? I guess he's trying to revamp the game (tm) next major patch.

>le revamp the game
>map changes nobody on the fucking earth asked for

...

what kind of an autist would type this ? :D
again? i just want to run into the jungle as dazzle and get all the farm

I have no idea man. I meme that Icefrog is dead/was fired sometimes due to the simple fact that patch notes tend to take lots of "inspiration" from the dota 2 reddit.

yeah

and ditya is pretty good imo

dendi can create some sick plays, but recent games in TI he's bad

sucks that we're losing either Navi or liquid

Sexelaide what's your ToS name?

>garfield making his teams throw in order to maximize his profit

good game indeed lmao

icefrog was fired years ago

She was way cuter with long hair...

I dont play ToS

they will get shat on their faces mate no worries. everyone knows their strats and they just have to play right

problem is dota isn't about plays any more, it's about farm efficiency and team coordination now

it means that you got into very high as the lowest mmr guy on your team and got carried every while you are unable to carry team of scrubs in normal bracket on your own

Garfield is the sav1or of the Dota 2 scene, there would be ZERO teams without his money :^ )

just like in the ti4 amirite?

Edit: thanks for the gold chums! XD

OG, Wings, MVP, Na'Vi, even EG shit out plays from what I've seen.

There are teams like Liquid and at times EG that just go the slow 'dominate map by boring dota and slowly choke the enemy team' but that's just another way to play the game.

I don't hate it.

but if I'd have to choose, I'd r ather lose Liquid. They play the more boring dota, but granted that will most likely win (Na'vi have shit record vs. Liquid)

How Alliance are performing and how they're in UB is mystery to me, are they that good?

There was no mason to ignore the throw order this time.

who is she?

I want to see Miracle invoker every game desu.

>inb4 someone says they were told to throw

I'm kinda hoping there are no big upsets, but I know there will be.

>dota isn't about plays any more
youtube.com/watch?v=FVvL6XHHFLk

out of 10 games, liquid would prob win 7 over Navi, but it's fucking bo1 so anything could happen.

and this TI is fucking closest when it comes to team skills. There is not a single team that can't be beaten by others.

Yeah in know esc is shit, they don't count

you know inb4ing something doesn't make it wrong

I just realized that either Navi or Liquid will score 13-16th, holy shit. This TI is brutal.

>mfw escape gaming gets further than navi/liquid

>play support
>buy all the wards
>stack camps
>smoke gank mid
>win the calibration match
>average mmr drops from 4000 to 3000 next game
eric
simply eric

having them play bo1 is honestly fucking ridiculous

Even then Escape is probably the best worst team at a TI in history

yeah, whats tragic is that shit teams get to go further
like either fnatic or esc move on, but navi or liquid won't
its fucked up

>Throne was 200hp
>Lassoed bear and all to stop it from roaring
>EG fangays still say they were told to throw
Keep your delusions to yourself
EG fucked up and Alliance won, not that I'm happy for Alliance. Ehome is gonna take this TI anyway.
