first for learn how to play carry you fucking noobs

...

reminder that noobfromua did nothing wrong

I remember that webm

JUST

what happened? I don't watch his channel because I prefer full games, not highlights

>When the match making gets so bad you honestly consider quiting

what happened?

Imagine there's millions of alien races in the universe. One day, one of them stumbles upon our planet.

They are not impressed. Everything we have here they've seen already in thousands of flavors. Except one thing, DOTA. They've never seen anything like it. Their calculations show it's the most amazing game possible.

They try to play it. They tell about it to other empires. Even these extremely intelligent, can't play it good. The best alien, grey looking ayy lmao motherfucker, who has been called THE SAVIOR OF PLEYADIANS. This fella calibrated at 1700 MMR.

By this time DOTA is played in the whole galaxy. Empires bet entire planets on BO3's.

Watching human TI's sets the mood for the whole Milky Way.

Alien overlords decide they will breed humans to play DOTA.

They contact us and tell us the whole deal. Entire Earth industry and economy means nothing. Our technology is shit, we are primitive. What matters is that we are genetically engineered to play the best game possible.

People don't have to work anymore, playing DOTA earns you millions if you are able to achieve at least 3k mmr. Anyone who can calibrate at 2000 can become local star system HERO for the aliums. These who play at 5k become instant billionaires. Aliens give them anything they want, 10 tonnes of gold, advanced electronics, everything just so they play for their teams.

TFW Dota2 saved the humankind.

He used people's streams for his videos, without permission. This is why all his videos are just direct from the game.

>Make a post declaring that you have met someone's totally unreasonable demands.
>Shut the fuck up, you baby.
Why does that fat cunt even use Twitter? Literally NO ONE cares about what EE has to say about ANYTHING. He's a fucking idiot.

...

>wake up
>no major roster shuffle

Doturds?

How do I bring an end to all magic, dotards?

>tfw I bet on Fnatic against Na'Vi on both games and earned a shitton of rares.

That was a good day, mang.

How do we improve the quality of pubs?

Why would anyone play this archaic and hideous top-down clickety-click babby RTS when Paragon exists and is free?

.02 usd has been deposited in your account.

>My post live for all eternity

is paragon the one where it was exclusive to windows 10 and flopped

I thought paragon was a money laundering operation

Friendly neighborhood GNU/Linuxbro here.
Remember to stay away from Pokemon Go and Windows 10, the portable botnet and the botnet OS respectively.

Stay safe.

What distro?
I want to change from Windows 8.1, just for test it.

Because at least I know with some certainty that DOTA2 doesn't mine bitcoins at the background

>tfw still thinking about getting the mirana statue

I Decided to share some of my fun Overthrow builds with you /d2g/. Do not post this on reddit.

If pieliedie dies to neutrals and nobody is there can he crowd see the holograms?

As always depends on what you want the machine to do. I have machines running ArchLinux, Linux Mint, SteamOS, and ChromeOS. The tasks specify the distro, not the other way around.

>Tfw general is STILL dead

>tfw your true skill needs to be like 1k higher than your current rating if you want to actually go up in MMR in less than ten years

>true skill
here's your (You)

Someone told me 5k is average MMR. Are they right?

this is somewhat true but the effect is mitigated by behavior score

if you have a sub-8000 behavior score you effectively have no chance to gain mmr. you really want over 9000 to try to gain.

>MVP loves picking PA
>never paired her with omni
How do we fix this shitter?

3k is average
4k is decent
5k is good
6k is semi-pro
7k-9k is pro

Nope, avrg is 3k

Obviously you pick up Demon

>omni
>hero gets completely countered by diff
pls no

>tfw your true skill is below your actual mmr and you're still rising because Zet, the Arc Warden

>tfw been stuck in upper 2k for fucking months and can't claw my way out
Help me.
Or end me. Either answer is correct, at this point in time.

learn how to farm

hey im a pro player and i'll kill myself tomorrow

bye

good riddance

ENVY NO

>twitch kills VODs and mutes everything
>big streamers are too lazy to upload their shit to youtube
>slav caps streams and uploads them
>it's once again possible to watch stuff with sound or at all because none of these fucks uploads VODs
>slav is able to make a modest living in his poverty stricken shithole from this
>dota pros start to smear his name on reddit
>they get his videos taken down on youtube
>slav has to cap from ingame replays instead of streams
>big streamers are still too lazy to upload to youtube

can you stream it with a tutorial?

we all need something to fill the esports void

I want to try it but I have a toaster.

>local man kills himself and runs away from the crime scene

More news at 11

>tfw you were the riki

I did. I break 50 cs in any safelane where I'm not fucked over. I can break 60 mid as a qop.

Kill yourself.

why

I think I'm gonna get the WR figma.

post dotabuff please

3k isn't average either, there's a million shitters who never even calibrate

i bet the real average is somewhere around 2k or high 1k

If I have a low/no contest lane I'll have nearly 100 cs at ten minutes, learn to farm

check this post

Does anyone have that picture of rtz on a trike?

play "win the game" heroes like jugg or invoker than hit towers and carry rather than "walking memeback piggybank" heroes like qop

>If I have a low/no contest lane I'll have nearly 100 cs at ten minutes,
Are you counting denies or something? 80 creeps spawn in 10 minutes.
I guess you could play a sven and have someone stack hard.
I don't want to be bullied.

>I don't want to be bullied.

then you don't care about being better and don't deserve to be here

>wants to get better
>doesn't post dotabuff
???
who cares what some anonymous fucks on the internet think

Are you one of those people that dies to an un-microed necrobook a-clicked down a lane?

82 creeps spawn in ten minutes, you have additional access to the hard camp and the small camp, 90 at 10 minutes is easy as fuck in a lane with a support who zones, 100 is really good, you kill 70 lane creeps and 5 hard camps and you're at 85, hit the small camp twice and yoiu're in the 90's. Sven is obviously the "best" for hard farming early, but jug, am, and slark are also really good for it.
Sven>Slark>AM>Jug. I could hit a consistent 90 on all of them.

protip: even if we do bully you, we'll forget you even existed by the next thread

>funn1k is currently teamless, frequently in low priority, insulting russians out of "nationalistic pride", spamming pudge, and dropping to 5k mmr

?
Didn't zai litteraly just ask for Noobfromua to ask for the players' permission before uploading content from their streams?

tried the ET build

definitely works, I was shit as him though.

I two shotted invoker so that was funny. Gonna try again.

who?

Do people with a behavior score of 7k-8k really get matched differently than people with a behavior score of 9k?

My behavior score is above 9.5k, I'm just wondering

>picks jungle WK after AM+riki already picked

who the fuck are these people

Yes, who the fuck picks riki and am in 2016

aynone worry that the west might fuck it up this year and let the chink have 2 TI in a row ?

>doubting peter

>EternalEnvy calling anybody a fucking baby

I have half a mind to spam his fucking Twitter with images of him sulking when his team got their ass handed to them by Alliance.

Not to mention he's a fucking weeb animu shitposter

yes or no on the statue?

no

>Honeypotter

its over

Nein

stop replying to yourself asspine

>Mirana

lmao literally who cares besides footfags and fetal alcohol syndrome lovers.

>yfw this is the original mirana

>he doesn't like girl feet

the lower the behavior score the better, right?

It's literally a regressed stumpy hand.

>not wanting that regressed stumpy hand rubbing against your dick
What a gay

Eeew, feet are gross dude

PSG?

All I can say is that when I was at 6k and 7k matches were so low quality and painful that I stopped playing with players and went to play with the bots on the dead servers like Dubai until I hit 8k.

But they're clean and soft, just like skin anywhere else in the body.

Also are the servers down for anyone else?

why couldnt this be the monkey king?

>steam is down for regular tuesday maintenance
What now
