tfw no cute dota gf

First for /our guy/

nerf the deathball meta

is Crystal "Maiden" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land?
this "Maiden" doesnt look like a maiden to me , hell Lina the Slayer is more of a maiden compared to this slut.

tfw no dotard gf

...

QUICKLY /D2G/
YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS TO VALIDATE THE CONTINUED INSISTENCE THAT DOTA IS A LEGITIMATE ESPORT AND NOT A LAUGHINGSTOCK
POST VALIDATING PLAYS

>deathball meta is over

-/d2g/

>deathballcucks furious their shit meta is being recognized as shit

>anime defends Eternal autism and doesn't know what death ball is
Lmao i just anime post and don't even play the game xD

>40 memes early

holy shit
non china dota teams are this bad???

just the American ones, the EU teams are good

Reminder my side just keeps winning

holy shit just GG already

gg

WHAT IF
we added tons of items and abilities that kept lone heroes from snowballing
and set up tons of defensive tower changes to punish split pushing and handed you free glyphs and tps nonstop
and nerfed creep gold and made heroes explode like pinatas when they died so teamfights give more resources than 10 waves of creeps?

HIRE ME ICEFROG

>Kick only American
>Lose

>DC vs Wings is so boring people would rather shitpost on /d2g/

hmmm
really makes on ponder

>dc is only NA when they lose

faith_bian-sama...

>implying EG won't sweep the gf 2-0

>if you group together before 20 minutes because the other team was fucking retarded and made awful picks you are playing death ball - d2g
Fuck you people are retarded.

those jersies

what the fuck

>d2g mad about d2g yet again
wew

>people hyping up dc vs wings while egnp was playing

where are you deathball deniers now

they wont

>NAcucks never recover from TI6

guys the game ended at 20 mins where is your excuse now?

This series has no purpose. DC has no chance, so there's zero tension.

>we've gone full circle back to deathball meta
kill me

>Slacks has more MMR than me
kill me

>team wins all lanes individually
>is able to snowball because they're so ahead
>muh deathball
-/d2g/

DC lost 5 minutes in, bad draft and they got behind too early

Boston's going to be such an interesting major.

in csgo there are pros so autistic they play wiht 4:3 with black bars because their retard atutist brains cant handle seeing 2 more inches on either side

are there dota pros who play with 4:3 blackbars?

>lebanon struggling to stay relevant because of my deathball meme that actually isn't a meme
feels good.

>Icefraud didn't patch this game after TI6

What did the fraudster mean by this?

GF is bo5

>the union of yuropeon cuckolds will never again be relevant

Listen up /d2g/ mongoloids

Deathball
>grouping up 3-5 extremely early because you have a much stronger early fight, farming off of kills

Not Deathball
>pushing down towers and winning fights because you have an overall advantage

Also, Deathpush
>annoying as fuck drafts that include tower pushers like drow, DP, veno, etc.

theres people who spam the scoreboard button

people who play on low settings

and yea sometimes pros play on low res but thats typically peruvians because they dont have time to adjust to bigger res

>all the boston games are going to be sub 20 minute GGs

I hope icefrog gives us a nerf patch at least or the pro scene will just implode.

>single elimination with deathball meta

Pick me

I'll have a bo5 with YOUR gf :^))))

Hey d2g/ can I get some razor tips? I have around 500 hours playing this game and for the love of god I just discovered he exists.

Do I just build him as a tank and zap away FREE DAMAGE with his W? Do I go mid or just say offlane and bother the enemy carry?

help

...

Tiago please save us

This shit happened like every game in WC3 (actual WC3 not Dota). Unfortunately 99% of dotards are incapable of moving more than one unit, so when someone does it's seen as a godlike play.

You only think that because of the blonde bimbo stereotype. Rylai's maiden hood is a bastion of frost-white purity, eternally trapped in the Blueheart Glacier, along with the soul and body of her hermit ice wizard master.

>having imaginary meme wars because you're mad a a boogeyman

>all the future dota is going to be deathball meta
6.86f=6.81

it was more common in wc3 because of micoring more units makes you more prone to mistakes.

when the enemy is microing one unit this is much harder

...

>even something as basic as controlling TWO units to cast just ONE spell every 3 seconds is beyond the "micro skills" of 99.99999% of dota players

this game is a fucking embarassment
wc3 players used "dota player" as an insult

>still doesn't know what deathball is
Your meaning was semi correct yet worded poorly.

Anyone who thought wings had a deathball lineup is clinically retarded.

lmao DC are shit

could've tp'd out

dota players use "dota player" as an insult

excuse me gonna balance that out

You don't play razor at all. He's really bad currently.

Soe

it's not that wings had a deathball lineup. These days every lineup can deathball if they feel like it. The strat itself is cancer. The action of grouping up as 5 before 5 mins means GG for the other team

who redpilled twitch

>pick chen
>satyr on level 1
>kills any midlaner that doesn't have blink
I deserve to take a fap for that

ODPixel has a weird body, he's obviously not fat but his torso still looks really wide. Unfortunate

...

Razor mek is bad in pub now but still ok if you want to deathball, Hood is defiance if there's a burst.
Build MS/HP if you feel a lategame

My favorite build is early HP items to Ags~>BKB~>Refresher

>stop taking opioids for a week
>my libido is back

post dota lewds 3d and 2d I just need them

why would you want a libido?
I would get rid of mine if I could.

no more games after this one?

based

Except you don't know what the fuck deathball is. Taking advantage of really bad picks is not lmao death ball. DEATHBALL is picking heroes exclusively to win pre30, such as an aura lineup.

What you are basically saying is teams are fucking retarded and don't know how to draft to not be at a disadvantage when people start playing dota early instead of farming for 20 fucking minutes even when their not against an early aggression draft.

Me too I'm horny constantly and fap 5+ a day.

I mean I'm didn't say I wanted it back, i'm rather indifferent about it

umm hello this is a blue board, make a thread on /aco/ if you want me to dump my dota lewds

Do you want to watch NA getting stomped 3x in a row?

>watch my old webm
>that camera management and everything
AAAAA this is so bad

He's pretty fat now, he's just tall which spreads it out somewhat, same as Godz

I'm self employed I'd probably have an extra thousand a month in income if i could get rid of my libido. Needing to have sex and masturbating takes away truly precious time.

>chen gets 700 hp 330 ms satyr
>hotd gets 1400 hp 350 ms satyr

if the games are short stomps, why does BTS give them 15 min breaks?
Can't we get all the games out of the way fast?

I'll just go edge this shit up for the next 4 hours

how lina didn't sutn u

>it's a deathball meta!
>not lmao we don't know how to draft and suddenly people saw how retarded we are and just decided to finish the game early
More like BadDraft meta.

Damn you really did suck at making webms, once

She did, i just started my skewer sooner so it didnt stop

what if instead of his skill that lets him control creeps he got free Hotds

>2017
>the year of Icefrog original heroes.

Bad heroes shouldn't exist. Every hero should be pickable

>why is bts shit

what if hotd creeps got +15% lifesteal, +20 damage, +5 armor and +3 hp/s regen

>Icefrog
You mean Valve team 3

Why can't Rubick use Spell Steals on allies?

what if you could keep hotding your creep to make it stronger

and if you do it like 10 times it becomes zeus

Yeah i know, long story..

S O U R C E

that would be rude
