>only poor fags play this game
>drive up profit

lul

windwaifu needs a model update like Mirana

L A D S

LAAAAAAAAAAAAADS

what hero is that

Melbourne?

i'd add nyx to that
his 1st has some cast animation, you can counter it with carapace
you can gank him from invis,i guess MK is pretty low hp
you can also wait for his passive proc to carapace

fuck off

adelaide

When was the test patch up yesterday? Fuck cant remember.

25h43m ago.

is monkey kang viable offlane or too item reliant

where is the comic anyway

Is it time to come back lads?

17 minutes from now

you can slap pms and shitton of regen on him and he'll win any lane I believe

just fuck my shit up senpai

is atos goodEul on mid lina now? better range, gives hp, more mana and slightly more damage, the biggest downside is inability to purge shit off yourself, mana regeneration is probably not a problem since shrines and runes everywhere

So when MK is a tree or whatever can you attack him or do you need an aoe/ground target spell or something?

Wow how fucking extensive

oh yeah?
i'm going midas armlet hurricane pike lich and theres nothing YOU can do to stop ME

Jakiro fucking stomps monkey man.
Can scout trees with ice path or if you know which tree hes in just macropyre him down.
Stunned for 4 seconds in macropyre, 6 with ice path.
Also attack speed slows for keeping the jingu count slow

...

No? Play League, don't mind dotards here trying to love this dead game

>Catching anyone with one of the worst cast animations int he game.

good choice

lich is going to shitfuck so many garbage monkey kings in lane

fucking wenough
I go to sleep now
cant take this shit anymore
fuck you valve

No, the patch isn't live yet.

Don't talk to me or my eleven to twentytwo sons again.

So who is the fourth Spirit brother?
Void Spirit?
Time Spirit?

Will player-owned EG become Team Secret/Na'Vi of America and poach ALL the players while never winning anything?

GOLEM GET YE GONE

cum spirit

You don't play any of them.

Who's that hero on the cover?

SEA here.

I dont get it, we still dont have the patch?

Spirit Spirit he can do everything.

water?
seems like the only option left

water spirit hamfisted into indigo instead of blue

>fire
>storm (read air)
>earth
>???
Hmmm user this is a tough one.

who cares LICH CARRY

If you see him jump there is more than enough time to cast macropyre. Its a slow cast time but its a lot faster than it used to be. Good range too.
All jakiros dot spells keep mk from jumping back into trees too.

Yeah
I'll be building midas on him now though
the talents are fucking top

Love?

play 244 hours more then stop

Mercury Spirit

>checking thread after starting to hate neudota and quitting long ago
>the vast majority of posters are talking about how disliking any of the past five or seven patches means you're an autist that just needs to adapt
and thus the community became the destroyer once more
the instant a random faggot starts to type WE instead of I is when the community is created, and then the game is already destroyed

As stupid as it sounds i want to say arcane or void spirit

So let's talk about why Techies is fucking cancer again.

The instant stasis trap explosions are fucking horrid and while you can't stack mines anymore, it actually makes the jungle that's now filled with fog fucking different terrain elevation and janky tree placement even more of a fuckfest to go through. Blast Off is legitimately broken as early game nuke and even if it's not even a quarter of how suicide squad was that skill was overkill anyway.

Memepushing.
Proximity mines are a bitch and a half in the new jungle.
No delay and no time limit stasis traps are dirty as fuck.

They actually made the motherfucker still the same old techies that fucks with how everybody plays the game but somehow even made him more team-oriented. I hate it.
