>seventeen memes early

First for thick Tresdin dick

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.

Axx has a 100% competitive winrate LUL
Male chauvinists on suicide watch.

Lesbos are honorary males

is our scene healthy?

Dota is fucking dead.
This general sucks too.

TI is like the only reason to watch it or play around that time. Majors are honeypots. Other tournaments are just completely meaningless and uninspiring.

>envys solution to the situation is practicing a fuckload of windranger
lol

>dota 2
>healthy

>nothing on google
Hmm..

who is the stupid slut?

anyone watching starladder?

>go to dota2.com
>no news since 7.0
Did this game unironically die?

me

What happened to the baffler?

Can anyone explain the radiance o ember meme?
I get that most people focus on magic now with the talents, but I am pretty sure a maelstrom deals more damage even though its price is almost half of a radiance.
Like, it's still an ember spirit who's not gonna spend much time in a fight, but rather jumping in and out.
I have yet to see a radiance actually do anything on that hero.

he finally baffled himself

He's going through a waifu period, like he did with PA about a year ago and had massive loss streak.

I dunno but could it be that attackspeed isn't that good on the hero and you get more dmg out of sleight of fist? I don't really get it either cus they tend to get it pretty late when the dmg isnt that great anymore

That's such bullshit that i can actualy believe it

Dead thread 17 minutes in.

WEW

How do we gain back the players?

>tfw dota will die in your lifetime

50% arcana(except Jugg) drop rate at new bloom this coming chink new year

anyone else watching romanian tier 4 dota because starladder isn't working properly?

>mfw it is already dead

Winterpass NOW

A E S T H E T I C S

Make a team of only American players. I.e, born and raised in the land of the free.

what if wyverns lvl 25 ability would revert enemies being immune to damage from your team

>Wake
>Read WESG result
>Dendi stack unironically lost to fucking Peru
How the mighty has fallen

That image triggers me, please delet

I don't know why the frog doesn't make it 0%/50%/100% or something

you'd have to increase cooldown a lot for that to be balanced

And they have to be white

>How do we gain back the players?

Make seasons

Restart ranked

what if you go aghs instead of skadi on slark now

>tfw can't into beards

>deal even less damage
Sure

...

>lost eight games in a row last night
>wake up to 5 wins low priority
>uninstall the game, sell all of my items, delete all my dota 2 bookmarks and shit, delete my twitch account
>never intend to launch the digital jew again
>life looking up already

feels liberated man

Why do white people look so childish?

30 is the new 20
ironically this is exactly what they fought for in nam

Actually they are the least neotenic race.

The guy in pic rel looks like what is known as a nu-male.

God, just, how do you fuck up a dab
It is literally, unironically, just pretending to sneeze into your sleeve
How do you fuck that up

hey I need advice before it's too late. how do you stop eating ice cream?

ask xiao8 not us

Stop buying it.

Why would you want to?
Mixing chocolate milk with mint chocolate chip is my favorite breakfast

this image is bad and you should feel bad

>Why would you want to?
because i want to have sex with someone who finds me desirable. that sounds hnng as fuck though

>new battlepass
>bring back stat points
>talents can only be gained at levels 15 and 25
>add the option of adjusting map brightness
>readjust the tree layout in some parts of the jungle
>invert the cost of sentry and observer wards

>implying digging into a tub of THIS with whipped cream and sprinkles on top and some shmuckers magic shell mixed in wouldnt be twelve times better than the 7 minutes of sex you'd have
Just give up

final thought on le monkey magic doturds???.....is he good live up to teh HYPE or shit tier gimmicky heroes??...

it's at least pretty close
but there's also not wanting to be a tub of lard because of the psychological effects of being completely out of shape. if youre out of shape then everything in your life is just worse.

>2 second stun with crit
>tree hopper

Gimmicky carry, best played as an offlaner

My dream is to see a Ember buy Battlefury

>PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY PAYING FOR EXPIRING TERRAIN

He:'s ok

will probably get nerfed for captains mode and be trash for a while

also the best way to play him is unironically roaming support and build items that buff your ult/utility

Get a better dream.

Take an Ability. Remove a letter. What does it do now?

Drow - gut. drow gits gut

Ticks of the Trade
riki stabs compulsively right in front of himself for dot in a 150 semi circle in front of him. works like a 6 second buff so you can move and blink strike and shit while stabbing

>leddit bait

Monkey King Bar-
> belongs to Monkey King

Black King Bar-
> ...

It's skeleton king's

...

>tfw will never be able to have a full-negro draft

how to save this dead game?
also now EU dun have good team anymore?

chen
zeus
dragon knight
legion
antimage

Only chen and am is black tho.

>zeus

I only care for esports any more, Fuck this game desu lads, Shrines are completely retarded.

they just need to make it so you can't tp to shrines and remove highground shrines

also fix the fucking hud

>4 games into my 5 game LP time
>only won 1 game
>games are decided at the draft or by which team has a dc'er first

love it

there won't be a black king until Tresdin can be brought to climax

nice game dotards

don't get to LP next time then

not my decision to go to lp

some retards don't like the way I play
well fuck em

Sure m8, people only report people that just can't play

thats bullshit because
a: you can report enemies
b: bad 4k mmr players get reports too
c: supports can report
d: not my fault if they suck and i sell my items

Also monkey king's

you should probably just go back to sniffing glue instead of playing dota m8

...

>tfw reading a book and you see the word "dotard" in it

post feet or it didn't happen

people will report for what ever strange reason, I had 12/4/41 LC 500+ duel dmg and I carried them so hard got reported by a premade of 4 because I apparently stole a kill. Yes it was unranked and yes I am fucking bad with LC which is why i train on unranked. But most people are still fucking retarded.

I am relatively new to the game, but I thought you need to be reported in 3 different games to go LP

Also, r8

>playing LC in unranked
you deserved that t bh

Im sorry but i had to post this, what a fucking bunch of cucks

Is extra packet loss a cause of the patch?

I keep getting shit where I can't move for a few seconds, I'm on a good internet connection so I can't imagine it's that.

The game is playable, but it's really annoying sometimes. Any fix for this sort of problem?

>Completely agree. In comparison to other game developers, dota's dev team is really in touch with the community (sometimes even too much).
JAAHAHhshHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

dotabuff.com/matches/2796160581
you match was 2 months ago

2 mjo doesn't stack in 7.01 and aghanims is the better build now

>Literally came out today of lp because i just had 1 lp game left
>play 6 games
>Im on lp once again

Peruvians can report you for literally dont speaking spanish on US servers with english language selected

...

Ironically, Icefrog having almost no communication outside of pro is one of the reason why he can do his job

Shit mate is this solely from Materis which I was too lazy to blur out that you found it ?

Yeah I know it was nerfed in 7.x :-(
Now you need agharapier to have fun :-(((

doxxed and v& faggot

>What most surprised me about Valve and IceFrog is how much better they are than other companies

Is this bait?
