vittu

who is this old man

Xth for Zai, the savior of western dota

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.

Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.

Whats wrong with this dude?
I dont know any of the dota youtube personalities
The video was recommended

>eg actually forced to play at lans that are so honeypot not even OG plays at them

>League of Legends
>Has Chinese tournaments regularly
>Can watch these tournaments seamlessly without any lag whatsoever
>Tournaments are always high quality
>Dota 2
>Anything Chinese is a literal mess
>Always laggy
>Never good
Why is this, dotards?
It's not like it's impossible to have good Chinese events as League has proven.
Why do the Chinese give Dota the short end of the stick?

I don't know because literally know one cares about LPL anymore in lol. China is almost as bad as NA in league.

>give up wisp instead of banning him and shutting down all potential wisp combos
>pick a CK when you clearly don't have a wisp on your own team
>draft visage mirana kotl
>don't pick drow despite her somehow not being banned or early picked
>try to dive an underlord who is retarded in low level fights AND has a wisp at his back
>lose

how much money was under the table dotards?

Nyahooo doturds

>8days before Xmas

LoL has tournaments?

How do you get rid of LP fast? How do I abuse bots on weird servers to do that?

>n0lans wins 3 lans
>fails TI every time
>arteezy memes it up and wins nothing, still gets 1 mil

Also artour gets tons of royalties from valve, tshirts, streaming and contracts

Lmao @ ur life n0lans shitter

Avatars are against the rules

RTZ is still a worse carry than Notail. This isn't about money but dota skill.

>>arteezy memes it up


by meme it up you mean 'plays so much dota his wrists are fucked because he tries so fucking hard and yet fails every time' ?

you can't do anything like this anymore. Play the games out or follow the instructions in my picture

This is pretty gay user

Nice backpedaling brooooo
u mad bro?
arteezy makes money without lifting a finger
n0lans is reduced to sucking cock and gets nothing

get rekt kiddo don't debate me unless you want to get killed again
yeah u mad bruh

yeah, wings is such a weird team...hard to tell when they're being complete dumbasses in the draft phase or running some sort of pocket strat. 90% of the time it seems to be the former, overrated team.

>RTZ is still a worse carry than Notail

>actually believing that unironically

underageb&

>he honestly thinks the opposite


>rtz has been on super teams his whole life
>yet to win a non-honeypot
>notail plays with literal whos
>has won 3 semi-non honeypots

is Phantom "Lancer" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land?
this "Lancer" doesnt look like a lancer to me , hell Sun Wukong the Monkey King is more of a lancer compared to this slut.

Rubick gets 1200 GPM if he steals MK ult and has the +60 GPM talent

Wait, someone tell me how Necro is nerfed again? all i got so far is they traded the disable buyback/damage for the cooldown reduc and buy back being base. Sadist is basically reborn into death pulse. How's that bad? i thought someone said they removed it completely to make space for that new skill thingy (that i forgot name for)

>he double posts from a vpn and two browsers

LMAO @ UR LIFE KID

where is this team from /d2g/

You mean notail gets carried every single time

>miracle
>s4
>jerax
>moon
>cr1t

>literal whos

>honeylans won 3 honeypots
>rtz only won ultra honeypots
there fixed

>RTZfags are suffering from state of psychosis.
nice.

H-HOW DID YOU KNOW?

swedishtan sounds about right ye

looks like an american restaurant

uzbekistan

Because you and I aren't so different...

PERFECT WORLD TELECOM GUANDONG

Did the enchantress fan fiction guy write his fic?

That's a Kookaburra

I wanna play on the US version of that server

Trump World Comcast Hugedong

>You mean notail gets carried every single time
>players literaly fail on their other teams
>come to og
>all of a sudden they are some of the best players in the world
>literally just woke up one day and are now winning majors where they wouldn't even qualify as a top 4 player in their postion on their previosu teams

also

>>miracle

was literally a pub player before monkey business

>>s4

exactly the type of person I am talking about, was shit tier on alliance but then found some magic potion that made him good when he joined og :^)

>>jerax

literal meme player that almost became a no name streamer after qpad

>>moon

literal hontrash that also almost became a no name streamer before OG

>>cr1t

Literal who being rotated on some random danish teams, never played on lan before OG

>kinda want to come back into dota and play again
>remember the horrid matchmaking and community
>remember how the game is more about not letting your team tilt or throw than actually playing the game

>i'll shittalk the players he mentioned, with literally no basis and pretend it's truth

Dropped

>trying so hard and accomplishing nothing
Just like your false God rtz

You talking about jerax pretty much disregards that being YEARS ago, during which he improved to be the best pos 4 in the world. Nice analyst, kiddo.

HAHAAHH all you can do is cry whilst rtz fucks your gf

>talking shit about jerax
we can disregard your entire post now because you clearly have noidea what you're talking about

That's some fine mental gymnastic to shit talk the first 9k player and the million dollar dream coil TI champion.

>that being years ago

he literally wasn't even as good as he is now when he was on liquid what on earth is

>>i'll shittalk the players he mentioned

this is literally what happened in their careers

SO TOXIC XD AMIRITE GUISE?!

What makes visage so good now? I'm having a hard time understanding what really makes him dangerous.

After watching some Fear stream I realized how infectious is RTZ mannerism.

did you read the patch notes user?

>hp and mana bar at the bottom just makes more sense
>it is redundant information you have it above your hero already
???
Are people really this fucking stupid?
Do they never click on enemy heroes to see their hp and mana in numbers?

rofl, I'm not even an OG hater, but implying s4 was shit after being considered the best player in the world for 2 years prior to the alliance2.0 thing, and that miracle wasn't wanted by multiple top teams is pretty funny

Whatvare you gonna do about it then

Nyek hek hek hek

>:3

>the first 9k player


wow I wonder what he's doing now :^) Must be having amazing success where ever he is. How honestly could OG go on without him :^)

>million dollar dream coil TI champion.


Yes, then he went to shit in 2014 and was an actual trash player, was decent on secret up until ti5, and then trash again on alliance, and now all of a sudden has won his second valve event. All just happened over night ofcourse

1k soon lads

>was shit tier on alliance but then found some magic potion that made him good when he joined og :^)
Jesus christ is this what n0lanfags actually believe?

Am I being baited here? N0tail is nothing but a dead weight

...

I'm hopping unto the "lets try playing dota again since everything changed" bandwagon.

I'm assuming his newfound power is coming from the skill tree, or am I incorrect in this thinking?

could be that the game is completely based off what you draft rather than actual playing

this isnt 2011 where you have navi clean sweeping every event out of sheer skill

he was the most useless hero in the game, but his aghs ult was the most broken thing in the game, so yeah, removing it was pretty big nerf
in place he got significant buffs to his kit, so his strength and weaknesses are more even now and he is better hero overall

Maybe notail will notice your bravery and let you lick his cock

Hey thats pretty good

t. n0lans fangay

you are a massive cuck

>read the patch notes
Do I fucking look like a redditor to you?

>rather than actual playing


so its gone from 'x player gets carried every game' to 'well, actual ingame play doesn't matter that much it's mostly in the draft'

Congratulations
Soon you will reach mmr when 99% of gulag resides.
Dont trigger them with monkey please.

It's more about other people not being able to handle their allies "toxicity".

If one ally pisses off or triggers another ally to the point where they sell their items, feed and shit then the chance of you losing is massively increased despite you not even being a factor into this whole mess.

In other words you have to not only make your allies feel good about themselves but also try and break up fights without pissing anyone off, etc.

This is dumb and I can't think of any other games that forces you to do this.

previously
>meh hero with pub winning ult
now
>meh hero with meh ult
dmg nerf to death pulse was pathetic, you need like 15 seconds to farm creepwave now
and his new skill is boring shit

his birds not dying to mean look due to meme sabre and dragon lance was the biggest buff
the lower cooldown on stone form and damage regenerating without it helps too

you know what would be a great addition?
Post game screen showing who muted you
Maybe even with a list of messages that were hidden from that player

So its not really a nerf overall? more like a balance buff?

i'm fairly certain no one likes playing visage, they all just want to feel special

just pick mk/slark and get to 2k by not forgetting to press buttons and trying to farm creeps.

>this pit lord pit of malice aoe

WHAT
EBEN
TJHE
FUCKING
HELL
WAS
HE
THINKING

Why are chink tournaments always shitty?

honestly MK is great for low mmr cause none of these braindead retards know how to counter him

they just pick 5 melee cores and go to town

yes, why would you nerf a hero that isn't picked in pro games
not sure if he good enough now for that to change, but his winrate in pubs got higher

Pito of
>smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec smalec

:D

The thing with new Necro is that the mek build isn't as shit anymore because of his new skill buffing the healing received.

The skill is also useful when you use stuff like salve, mango and shit.

+ the cast range

xD

nice game, nice patch and nice streams dotards

why gulag haven't spawned a single good meme in last few weeks or even months

>honestly MK is great for low mmr cause none of these braindead retards know how to counter him

Doesn't really matter considering how OP his tree jumping shit is.
1k range, free mana cost, very low cd.

>Dota isn't a game that was designed. It's a game that just happened.
What did he mean by this?

THE SEQUEL THOUGH

icefrog and valve does it for us, why would we even bother

what about this user opinion,
?

meow

who is the adc on eg here

>lose game winning gimmick that cucked your enemy for 120 sec and prevented buyback
>gain heal buff so that 2k retards claiming necro = support are satisfied
yeah, no
he's trash now

sumail

sumail and zai

>multiple prowler camps with chen
>vlads
>wraith king
thats >100% lifesteal in an aura
fuck dude

>playing MK in the low 5ks still wins every game I've been in. Only game I've seen lost was a 5stack that triple counterpicked and baaarely managed to outcarry lategame with a luna
