>6 months of the exact same patch, years biggest tournoment as well as two smaller but still huge tourneys on that same patch as well, more or less the same heroes every time because it's unsafe to pick out of meta.

>Game is stale and dying and Valve could care less because Dota has made them literally hundreds of millions of dollars on minimum effort.

>Lore is trash
>Client is trash
>Skins are trash
>Graphics are somehow trash and can barely run on shit PCs
>Pseudo-balance like turn rates and focus on items instead of abilities/skillshots
>bland character design
>no personality to the game as a whole

pretty much sums it up

explain this dotards

Really fucking easy, shit cooldowns, retarded items and retarded game concepts like runes and masteries.

Oh also way too much kids play that game. I was in awe by how many times I was called a 'doodyhead' or 'poopoostain' or 'dumdum' in their retarded in game chat system.

wtf there's an actual spic crossdresse streaming with 300 viewers

>Out of 133 champions in league, 56 unique champions were picked in the Worlds this year. That's 42.10% of all the champions. Also out of the 56 champions 11 of them were only picked once.

>Only 3 heroes were picked once in Dota 2's TI6, Sniper and Techies
>Unplayed were Arc Warden and Underlord

sums up league of legends

Her skill Synergy might be wonky, but for Blink -> All 3 spells -> A real rightclick items like Mjoll/Crystalis/MKB ?
It works pretty well

Basically her magical damage caps out very fast(1370 magic damage), and heroes reach 2k HP very fast.
Even Eblade just puts heroes at -5% magic resistance, boosting damage to like 1450 damage.

Meanwhile MKB + Mjollnir Lina do real damage because she has a Steroid and Disable. And can blink Initate.

Cat Revell is my waifu desu

>not awesome
YOU FUCKED UP

About how many minutes per week do you cry about the fact that you'll never marry Soe? I'd guess about 100. Most of that comes right before and after sleep when I'm most aware I'm not cuddling with her.

i dont think she needs another tiny one

>Double this for sides

wtf is wrong with this kid and his shitty haircuts

why is /a/ talking about our guy lel ouch

fuck off lelouch

>RTZ gets a hair cut and d2g flips out

He could fart and half of you would try to tell him how to do it better or how you wish you were under his ass

Serious talk gulag, I need advice and a good dose of insults

I'll start off with saying that I'm a sad cunt with no priorities, I don't need to be reminded.

So I just had an awful, awful streak of losses in a row, some have been my fault, some were not. The thing is, I need to quit this game because I don't enjoy it anymore, and because I've just about reached my tolerance level for the shit community (including this general) but I'm way too deep in now to quit. All I want to know is if there's some kind of block I can put to my router or if I can get a VAC ban without fucking my whole steam account up.

/blog

its simple

just kys

I miss him so much

He's so trash right now,I bet Icefrog will do something stupid and turn him into an offlane hero

Sell all your cosmetics, delete the game.

Try adding these IPs to your list of blocked addresses on your router (you'll have to look up how for your specific router maybe):

I liked old PL with the invis more.

I like League for certain things (simpler and more static layout makes it easier to play while tired and I actually like playing certain characters) but their esports scene is by far the worst out of any. Everyone plays so passively and nothing interesting happens for the first 35 minutes.
What makes it worse is the casters are complete spergs and scream at the top of their lungs all the time because the game is so goddamn boring that they have to yell just to keep it exciting when nothing happens. Also gook dicksucking is turned to 11 there.
I'd wager even Blizzard Dota has a more interesting scene than that shit.

iktfb

tp scrolls
scaling is opposite (expensive items less gud for monies in dota)
ehmm
buybacks and aegis
more lockdown in dotes
i think thats the essentials

>tiny
you mean your dick xd

>tfw no sorceress hero with a 60s long 60% slow on a 10s cooldown and the ability to make teammates invisible for 120s with no cooldown and also a 60s hex with no cooldown

I've found after playing multiplayer games for a while with no progression to play besides the personal, that returning to single-player games which're a great ride is brilliant.

Breaking from the familiar pattern and I guess the self-discipline/improvement of multiplayers can be a good thing. The familiarity and feeling of a need to persevere and improve can keep you playing long past enjoyment stops.

A fun and good game reminds you why you enjoy games. Going all-in on some games' multiplayers can lead to bitterness as they're often designed to hold you when really past a point it's better to let go, or at least take a good break.

Often when you do take the break and move onto other things you realise you don't want to go back anyway.

>Every hero has their own theme song when you pick them.

Truly the comfiest of mobas.

>enemy Naga destroying everything
>teammate discovers it is actually ShaDow

Nice fucking match making you got there dotards

Who?

When I needed to get a carry, PL was my hero. Splitpushing, draining mana, 4.2 AGI GAIN and mindgaming with the invi.

All of that is gone. He was decent when he got reworked in 6.83 but for some reason he got gutted just for being not-shit

Now a bunch of AoE heroes are hot shit too so the 6.83 version wouldn't even be good

Sweeeet Lina!!

Lina thread? Lina thread

what if playing dota made girls like me?

It doesn't help that the only thing he can do to contribute to kills in the early game is completely nullified by a 300 gold item.
Not to mention you can't toggle your passive which makes it really easy to lose your only chasing tool to a missclick.

He's basically spectre in lane with a shitty escape and worse scaling.

what's the best invoker build?

LADS

how do I play chess? I know the rules but no strategy.

>dota
>girls

m8 you might as well move to Peru if you want a dota gf

Depends entirely on your team comp and theirs.
I think the hot shit right now that people go most of the time is QE aghs rush (with midas) with maybe a euls for dem sick SS meatball wombos.
Helps a lot that he's one of the mages least affected by raindrop.

youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQsLDm9Rq9bHKEBnElquF8GuWkI1EJ8Zp

Melee, non blink heroes. Exort midas euls

the rest ghost walk fag

is QW viable with the midas build-up? or do you need the spirits to accelerate even more your farm
