>Dragon Lance and Timbersaw's str were only nerfed by 1 str

Man, just how much does like 40 or so hp matter anyway?

It feels like a non-nerf

>tfw Timber still does Lion AGHS tier damage
really makes you think desu

?

LoL>Dota2

agreed, lol is at least fun with friends.

Gucci

How do I get good

I can tell when I make mistakes in game
but I never seem to prevent myself from making mistakes

How do I learn that

play more

it comes with experience too

Dota is dying. Look at these plummeting numbers.

I've played five years

>no /d2g/ in the title

kys

I wanted to filter out redditors who search 'd2g' to be hnest

wtf nigger

how much do u play per day

how often do u do these mistakes, usually when i do im just "lol wtf man, lolol op" then shrug it off and concerate on the game

i make mistakes alot like bot onto dying creeps when ratting as warden, that cost me games
but i dont usually now

Dead game :^((((

5-6 games a day.
>How often
I make mistakes every game or bad choices that I can't seem to prevent.

>deetoogee","have dota as default word on title bar rice
>paragon shows up

thank fuck that general finally died

hey shitskin explain this image

well for one thing you at least recognize that you made a mistake

thats half done job already
or maybe you are just being too critical about yourself/anxiety issues

my advice is you should probably just play high impact but low micro(not multi unit management) demanding hero

heroes like silencer and sb are the supps i choose for my retarded friends

what te hell is paragon anyway?

Ps4 smite clone.

delete dota. thats a friendly recommendation

>tfw dota won't die.
THIS FUCKING GAME

>f2p game
>dying

I assume you're probably getting caught while farming and the way to prevent that is simple, watch the minimap
If you can see most of them - farm
If you can't - back to your tower or even the base.

What if someone makes the biggest mmo ever and incorporates all the mobas and shit into it?
What if dota was a minigame within an mmo that over a hundred million people play?

It's not really the dying that I do mistakes, I'm pretty careful and among my peers I do feed the least.

It's bad itemization, tunnel visioning on one idea when I don't see how I sohuld do something else.

Two ways about it, like this user suggests, shrug them off, don't worry about them and focus on the game.

The other is never forget any mistakes you've made, learn to extrapolate them to other situations you find yourself in that are likely to end in a mistake and act accordingly to prevent.

You can always spam bristleback, too. It's probably the most "I made a mistake but it ended up going ok" hero in the game.

How do you fit a dota clone into an MMO? Dota and LoL are dependent on unique heroes starting at an equal level and reaching a level cap during a game. How would that function in an MMO when people are already leveling outside the context of the dota-clone?

Would the MMO have hundreds of classes in order to mimmick Dota heroes?
Would your MMO class be irrelevant within the game and you just pick a hero with the dota mini game?
Would your hero level in the MMO be irrelevant within the context of the dota mini game?
If so why bother having it as part of the MMO? Why not just log out of the MMO and go play Dota or LoL or whatever.

If you mean MOBA as in literally a multiplayer online battle arena almost every MMO already has this. HotS is literally WoW battlegrounds except isometric.

You're right there. There's no point because the main appeal of dota is that you get the entire MMO experience from scratch every time.

>merem wakes up in d2g.
>first post is about lelouch.
yep.

> whole 'ironical' shitposting thing took off
ye i remember that one faggot sperging out hur dur im top x in doturd buff

IO ASU
Now creates 2 spinning spirit balls, one is horizontally other is vertically.

Are you stupid shitskin? I told you to explain the image.

how hard is it to put d2g in the fucking subject line and a picture thats actually dota related?

kill yourself

Note
Vertical balls doesn't pop at end of duration

>that deep dark obsession.

Yeah the appeal of the genre is that it compacts the mechanical RPG experience of growing stronger and gaining skills and items into a tiny segment of time (relative to a traditional RPG or MMO).

That's why I find it strange when people compare games like Overwatch or even Battlerite to Dota/LoL. They might be superficially similar (multiplayed objective based competitive online games) but the experience is much different.

>stalking people while they sleep and wake up

Dat paki shitskin

Obsession with what, shitskin? Are you fucking retarded?

I'm telling you for the third time to explain your shitskin humor on this image.

Dumb shitskin

>merem trying this hard to annoy lelouch.
this guy has some serious issues, I know being a russian is pathetic itself but stalking people on /a/ and vg?

wow.

>shitskin brings merem out of nowhere

can't make this shit up

So what's the deal with your national shitskin paki thing on this image, shitskin?


Hello?

>namefags have bought the pass so they have reduced cooldowns and don't get banned
Just kill me right now.

Thanks a lot for making me discover Peter Watts ! I've red Blindsight some time ago now and love it and I'm reading Starfish those days.

>shitterskin paki cannot tell what's up on that image because he knows he's going to die in a poo in the loo war vs India very soon

Thank God I guess.

>wake up
>6.88e wasn't a bad dream

We don't care. At least he flame posts during esports so we feel satisfied when nolans gets BTFO, but you're nothing but a shitposter.

>Don't fucking mess with me or my gf's son ever again!!

>we
Lonely fat NEET spotted

Is there a way to lower my reliably lower my MMR?
I accidentally ended up about 700 too high (didn't buy account)

Who is this guy again?

>thinks this is worse that could happen
>valve adds monkey king (another fucking jew nigger rat escape unkillable shithero)
>retry after six months

Kevin "King Cuck" Godec

how do i play bane? is it even possible in this meta?

...

repick. not even joking

Base Damage: 16/18/20/22
Strength as Bonus Damage: 30%/45%/60%/75%

Is this the worst passive in Dota?

Compare it with Counter Helix or Caustic Finale. It's fucking garbage.

I want customizable balanced skills in dota 2

>tfw you will never see Waga go pro because all the team he played with just brought him down.

wrong game. play heroes of the storm

>all the team he played with just brought him down
sure they did

>No Bulldog stream.

>waga
>pro

Next thing you'll say Samsung is a good player who can play well in non tier-3 team.

Even Eternal Shitter is better than Waga or Samsung

Man if it's another illusion PL style hero i'll just be happy


Maybe he can be an actual counter besides AM to the unkillable waternigger

Reddit going after talon

better get your offlane mmr now

chilltoad will gut it for no reason

go stalk someone like a true shitskin lmao

>tfw

What is the percentage chance of making a cumback in 6.88?
In 6.81 it was 10% in 6.83 it was 30%. What's it right now?

Fucking how

>tfw top 10 most played heroes have winrate above 50%, some above 65%
>most played has below 40%
>haven't played it in 6 months

Why can't I be one trick puppy. Over 2.5k games and my most played isn't even over 100 games

Why does this always happen

>tfw

waternigger is ez to kill (my favorite hero, sorry) just get hero with silence, and good attack speed hero with orchid. boom waternigger ded.

id be happy if monkey king could counter the jew rat-fish. that shit is the most jewish shit rat hero fucking hate that shit. if i win lotery one day, i will pay gaben 10 million to remove slark and riki. fuck them

>ez to kill.
>Builds Manta/Linkens every game.

>8k mmr
>Implying that any bad players can gain that high mmr.

>waternigger is ez to kill (my favorite hero, sorry) just get hero with silence, and good attack speed hero with orchid. boom waternigger ded.

Yea because getting linken sphere and manta is not the first thing all morphligs do.

Dumb 2k shitter.

Dunno, Jugger is one of my fav heroes but I just can't play him. I have >60% winrate on other heroes in my top 10 played.

>Implying that any bad players can gain that high mmr.
>EE
>RTZ
>nolans
>aui
>bulldong
>black

just to name a few

I like to play against slark. Sure, he is cancer, can roam and kill off my team, but I just pick AM and just roll over him after 30/40minutes


But morphling is different, they actually buy linken as a core item, and after he gets the eblade he can delete my allies faster than I can come to aid

And yea as others mentioned-Manta

Although i still have about 54% winrate against morph, perhaps im just mad because the only times he wins is when he snowballs out of control

>orchid against a hero that goes linkens and manta in literally every game

k

Lots of them are irrelevant shitters who will never win anything on pro-scene.

))))))))

>resto+aghs on Luna can do literally 10k damage to a single target in 5 seconds
>this is somehow not the favored build
Explain this to me dotards

I always play bat against morph safelane, that nigger cant escape flamebreak and napalm stacks

baby knight is a good player though

a raging baby

but a good player

Slark can't do shit against AM or Morphling with even teams (supports / other cores).

Had a game as puck vs morphling, after I got blink he barely lived

With a fast dagon you can catch him farming at 600hp, easy kills

No we don't

2k shitter? your mmr is high i guess. so you do know you MUST sacrifice for da teamz and pick silencer or any other hero with aoe silence? fucking autistic niggercunt gtfo youre fired

If he's clever he will adjust his HP pool to survive bursts though, and then if hes not stupid he'll also have stick charges built up to live through silence
getting blink + dagon on puck before he starts walking around with more hp is possible, but its hard if he has good farm and knows what he's doing

Reposting

This preliminary patch might be a very short lived, depending on whenever Valve will host a major this year, and here is why. With a major comes it's own compendium/battle ass, last time we had one for fall was on 3rd of October, around 50 days before an end of the Frankfurt Major. This year around Manila Major Qualifiers we had 6.87 released at 25/04, that was less then a week away from an open and main qualifiers. So, there is not much time to host a major and I doubt they will want to shift it all the way to December.

Valve might just sack this fall major and go for a winter one, but I don't think it will be good for them, no compendium, for us, no major e-sports, and more importantly for teams who will have to wait till next year to prove their relevance plus majors on a fresh meta are fun.
