Fuck off Overshilled fags.

...

The report threshold is pretty high. I've seen shitters get reported 30 times and they only got into LP because they abandoned a game. LP isn't a real punishment measure. You still get to play games, which is what you're not supposed to be allowed to do if you're getting punished.
It's like getting grounded but you get to keep your cellphone and have like half wifi dl speed

I just want one fucking game where my team doesn't completely throw.

>russians feeding themselves and couriers on purpose
>supports not buying wards
>retards picking magnus and not buying blink

Fucking kill me

>it's a "filterless cretins whine about the report system"

i literally flame every game, get like 8 reports a week and I never was in LPQ without abandoning. grow up

It's like getting grounded for being a toxic retard and not allowed to play videogames, besides you get to play that one bad videogame, and you're grounded with 4 other toxic retards

dating a real girl HELP

kill yourself for abusing a broken champ

>NA WILL NEVER EVER HAVE 5 PURE NA SCENEGENES PLAYERS WHO WON A TI THAT YEAR

I want to play other Heroes, but whenever I do, I either feed like a retard, or not have fun at all, and it's getting pretty boring playing with the Many Spells Man

>tfw my last friend who plays dota deleted me because I was too bossy in game.

S-solo queue dream!

>NA will never win TI again
honey dicked by their own forced meme

feels good man

>mid Ursa
Why did I queue right after TI

>I can't have fun without playing invoker
>Yeah, but I don't have fun playing Invoker
Who cares about feeding like a retard aslong as oyu don't do it in ranked.
The whole point of spamming heroes is to spam them until you're good and comfortable with them, then you stop spamming them and move on.

Reminder that since TI 2015, that's 12 months ago, North American DOTA 2 team has not won a lan.

>NA WILL NEVER HAVE A RELEVANT TEAM THAT DOESN'T HAVE 3 OUTSIDERS CARRYING THEM

pretend i attatched le gold face to this post

That´s really hard to believe, especially because every single hero has some niche and different playstyle. Even WK that might seem like a dumb one button hero is hard when you realize that your entire hero can get denied for the rest of the game just by not getting enough farm

here you go senpai

>tfw I bully all the bad players out of my stack
>The good players don't even mind, since we win games this way
My stack isn't for learning dota, go play with some ingame chat shitters if you want to "haha just memeing win doesnt matter"
b-but TI is just a honeypot, tard!

Play Zet, the Arc Warden

Funny enough I was thinking about trying him out, what's the general Item/Skill build? I know that you get Midas/BoTs/Maelstrom(?) I think, and then situationals

I try my best every match, but some matches are just lost in the draft, and loosing them after trying so hard is so demoralizing, how to cope?

this is ok on camera but the other ones are not?

i cannot abide people that have to inject their politics into everything

>tfw I want to play dota with all of my irl friends but they're all terrible
>tfw I'm patient with them and they learn the game
>tfw we win all the time when stacked now
wow, amazing the things not acting like a wild aspie can accomplish.

Can's win them all user

E/Q or Q/W invoker?

>Linkens, Halberd no BKB Sven

MAYBE DON'T DO RETARDED ITEM BUILDS.

>no helm and self-stacking for 700gpm
>no bkb vs Tinker
As a support/cuck main, you are the reason why I fucking hate this game and all the tryhard carry shitters who think they're hot shit but wastes everyone's time

>Q/E for farming creeps
>Q/W for farming heroes

So as usual a fucking retard picked Legion jungle

What pos 5-4-3 hero is best to pick

support and non support if you have one support,or two support

after kuro backstabs them all theyre gonna be WASWAS

delusional little faggot

ROSTER SHUFFLE DRAMA

FUCKING WHEN

SAJEDENE DROPPING THE SKYPE LOGS HOLDING THE TRUTH FUCKING WHEN

I want to inject my semen into Sheever.

>takbir team without "fuckshitup n stuffs"

Tinker was actually the least of the problems for me in the teamfight, I built linkens against LCs ulti and halberd to disable her when she ults somebody else, it did save people multiple times but maybe it wasn't worth it.
agreed

>mfw techies respect ban every game
>mfw they all build bloodstone on their heroes
CANT
WAIT

Team should be called "Poor Little White Boy"

yeah vaguely

sometimes a RoA before midas is good so you can last hit

a blink/force/sb after midas instead of BoTs is often helpful, all he needs is level 6 to have solokill potential on almost any hero

maelstrom after midas+1 mobility item is normal, get it first if you want to afk farm

in terms of skills, go 202 into either 2041 (last hitting/setting traps with wraiths) to 4021 (killing non escape heroes). Unless you feel you need an escape plan against ranged carries or need to defend towers early (ie drow) ignore magnetic field until you've got both offensive spells maxed

farm conservatively with your hero and aggressively with your double

get a good feel for what situational items you need/like. There's a fair bit of personal preference. I like orchid a fair bit, it's much harder to get around 2 of them and bloodthorn is great in a lot of games.

Did anyone make a collage out of all the hologram greentexts?

>dedicating two slots to shut down a fucking jungler when you're supposed to be a hard carry
Just fucking stop. I'm actually getting triggered rn holy fuck. Don't pick carry anymore and I mean this.

...

How funny are you guys ?

Team DLF, Delusional Little Faggots

>American posting honeypots
?

only tournaments that matter are majors and TI

literally skywrath

tell him to get a 6 min blink and to gank enemys most important hero. smoke on him if you need to

Guess you're right, uninstalling now.

>honeypot 4
>surprise surprise EG wins the most summits - the honeypots of honeypots

my side

se(man) demon

what is he going to do? is anyone else sad that people like him and blitz are leaving the scene

So is Monkey King just gonna be good CK? From the trailer it looks like his illusions are his invoke and he won't have the le randumb meme making him inconsistent and shitty.

>Miracle
>Arteezy
>cr1t
>Zai
>Misery

can't tell you how i know this but i do

That'd be a good team if it weren't for rtard

Whatever his skills are I hope he's a good radiance carrier

>miracle artoozy and zai on one team
that would make me infinite happy

Sven's job is to do damage and blow heroes + buildings the fuck-up.

Sure you get some defensive items - but if you get too many you end up being fucking useless.

Instead of Linkens + Halberd you could have had HoTD + Daedalus + BKB and been infinitely more useful.

You think Legion is gonna fucking duel a God Strength's BKB'd Sven? Fuck no.

hes the guy behind BTS production

so half of the title fuck up, missing half of the draft, stream went down, audio issues are because of this dogshitter

glad to see he finally fucks off, don't let the door hit him in the fucking ass

probably some actual production in a thing that isnt esports. hes probably just tired of fat jew underpaying him

It's bizarre 2me if DC disband.

>tfw no good streams up
>tfw can't get hard unless watching a good stream

Depends where you are as a player. Are you in the 3-5k bracket obsessed with gaining mmr that means nothing? (Not saying MMR means nothing, but with a certain attitude it does)
If you're not in that place, but wanna actually get better at Dota, as soon as you see a shitty draft, just do your best to learn something from the game. Hard games are the best learning experience after all, carries don't shine with an easy game, but by doing clutch shit in bad games with no farm.

Can someone send me the Theeban / ppy leaked whatsapp conversation?

They started zooming in on Slacks when the sign appeared.
Why would I bother when all my friends are decent players, and I the only Veeky Forums players I like are decent players. (Not just because they're decent, just haven't seen many bearable bad players.)

wow i always assume he was gay. good for him tho

What are you doing during the post TI slump Dotards? I started playing a game that's actually good instead.

Ok, thank you.

Sent :^)

>RTZ in a yet another team where he shares hero pool with #1 pos. (and again, with a much better player)

Disband Gaming inc.

The team he fits is the one that can use and play traditional mids.

That's why S4 was good fit
And Sumail (to extent)

>tfw overcooked my tuna today
>tfw got basically rejected by girl in friday
>tfw ti is over

It took me way too long to realise that fun in Overwatch comes in dominating other players which is easy in it, instead of fun and good mechanics. Production value made it seem like it's a fantastic game though. I had my fun with it, worst competitive system ever though.

FFXIV

How old are you dawgs?

Im 27 and am not even mad when i got rejected by a girl anymore, im glad they just dont string me along for free shit and meals.

It's one of the most shallow multiplayer experiences I have ever had. I got bored in 5 hours of beta

>not eating tuna the only way it's meant to be eaten

kill yourself baka gaijin desu

i eat raw tuna at work tho
home i prefer grilled

24 kissless virgin

Can I get a list of all of d2g's memes?

you need to work on your game then

you can start by not eating like a dlf

Handless too?

>laning with some faggot, doing well to shutdown am with him
>turns out hes from my country
>want to add him
>but then it turns out he's one of these retards who spam in their own language on all chat when no one talks to them

Handholdless ? Yeah

Im ugly as shit
But i started working on fit body

Is he better suited for Mid or Safe Lane? I mostly play mid (Invoker duh) because in my potato bracket supports are more detrimental than helpful. And mid allows you to be fairly independent

No, we keep the memes hidden from the newfags

These guys come up and ask you to join the team

what is your pro handle

>tfw no qt trap to play Dota with

SisterFister

he made the fight recap thing which valve immediately integrated into the game so I he'll probably get a ton of great offers
