Faster lvl gain, tomes, 4 bounty runes, gpm/xpm talents...it's so easy to get gold and exp now that reaching critical items/levels doesn't feel very rewarding.

Next hero when, and how will they hint about it this time?

probably and most definitely a female hero

might even be a loli hero hinting from the comic

>Useless ult edition

>makes it impossible for enemy to push high ground
>instagibs supports who dare stay 1 second too long
>great for rosh
>FANTASTIC if you have a treant or tide on your team

>tfw 8.00
>still no Ilexa

great patch

>HAHA valve really nerfed jungling and farming, I can't wait to be a stupid supportcuck in this epic 5v5 teamfight game!
>valve literally added 4 extra jungle camps and 3 extra bounty runes


Really lets you spot out the redditors.

>monkey king's mischief still makes the particles appear
it's really easy to find him, just spot the glowing tree

Last played back when sniper and troll were broken OP but this patch looks hella fun because im a lil babby
Might have to start playing again

Ilexa or 4th Spirit, which would you rather have?

So who is op meme of this patch ?

4th spirit
it's a girl
it's the element of sluttiness

offlane wyvern

you heard it here first

>the element of sluttiness
we already have Crystal Maiden though.

>MK on my team
>win
>MK on enemy team
>lose

Nisu game dotards

juggernaut
drow
od
slark
antimage
monkey king
luna
lycan
visage

nothing much has changed

So can someone suggest me a hardcore game that isn't casualized as fuck with a good esports scene and fun gameplay? Because Dota isn't this anymore.

What does the yellow circle indicate?

What's the best way to get free MMR and why is it roaming spirit breaker?

It's used to mark asian people, like a judenstern but for chinks and seamonkeys.

It could just be a coincidence he's OP though. There's absolutely no precedence to assume Valve makes a hero OP to sell an Arcana. It's not like Zeus or CM are OP as MK.

what if legion commander's Duel worked on creeps?

...

>esports
There's your problem.

FPS FIX WHEN

Zeus and CM were already in the game when their arcanas came out. This is the perfect time to give a hero a little extra boost to raise and maintain its popularity for a period to sell arcanas.

Thanks user!

>tfw i literally said 7.00 would be the death of dota the moment they announced it
>tfw i was right

extremely glad i don't play this piece of shit game anymore tbqf

the only regen item is potato that you have to dig out
the hero is famine

nice game DOTARDS LOOOL

>Zeus arcana hits
>huskar magic resistance max from 98% to 50%
really tickles your pickles

I'm supposed to be playing Game of war but this one player keeps kicking my ass

REVERT THE PATCH OR THE DUMB FROG GETS IT

I want to breed enchantress

PLEASE JESUS FUCK

THIS, HONESTLY THIS.... DOTARDS

Maybe. We'll see if they release a performance patch so my laptop can run it again

im free till they patch it does that count?

Do you have the final image in that series?

IM FUCKING UNINSTALLING THIS GAME FUCK YOU ICEFROG FOR RUINING DOTA, IVE BEEN PLAYING THIS FOR A DECADE PUTTING UP WITH YOUR SHIT AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT THE GAME MAKING IT INTO FUCKING LEAGUE OF LEGENDS AND HOTS

anyone miss 6.78? fuck the -em that came after

>CLQ is the only person on his team above 5k

Right here.
I miss playing the Spirit Breaker of that patch. I miss playing on the darker map..
I miss Source 1 in general.

is this it? I only got it off some imgur link someone posted here

are we back?

>amazing patch that renders quad-core play viable and support play at least tolerable
>only thing wrong with it is the UI
It's great. I hope it stays like this.

theres just not a whole lot you can do about that

where can i see bulldog react to 6+?

No, the one where she gives birth to the deer wolf abomination.

>Drow is evil
>Radiant

on his youtube channel

its part one and its when the notes were on pastebin

game is league of legends
your all cucks
roflmao
xddd

>play for the first time since TI5
>south americans still exist
its a real shame that valve goes through all this work to put a huge update together and then forgets a small change that would actually make their game playable

This hard motherfucker walks into your lane and manaleaks you, what you gon do about it faggot? Ye didn't think so either

Ilexa is cute. CUTE!

f-list.net/c/ilexa

glad we got rid of this toxic player. now hopefully valve will finally start perma banning toxic shits like him.

>TFW the only reason I had to keep this game installed was to fap to waifu character models every now and then

i-im going to miss you the most windrunner venge and drow ;________________________;

>patch breaks the game

>Clithor, The Ice

>A brief history of strawmanning

Next hero is almost definitely the fourth spirit brother

I keep crashing trying to spectate

Funny how all the changes in the picture have put out thousands of businesses and made businessmen wageslaves and only encouraged huge corporations.

Really makes me think.

good job ui

I'M AT WORK AND CAN'T CHECK RIGHT NOW, BUT DOES CENTAUR'S LEVEL 25 RETURN AURA EFFECT CREEPS AS WELL? I NEED TO KNOW.

7.00b when?

TEN SECOND SUNDERS

new patch

reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/5i7vt1/dota_2_update_main_client_december_13_2016_update/

Checked it just for you user, doesnt affect creeps.

That about bit is dark.
I hope Ilexa breaks free of the mind control and becomes a full fledged hero.

>Minimap scaling slider has been removed and instead now replaced with a new option "Use Extra Large Minimap" that provides well .. what it says.

Literally why

ghost revenant
