dota 2 is a good game

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.

wrong

REPOSTED FROM LAST THREAD SINCE WE HAVE THIS NEW ONE

>How do exact I play pic related in 7.00? I just recently came back to dota since 6.87 and I want to spam best bug in my ranked games. Is he a viable offlaner?

>I can't play with whites anymore
what have you done

espawts is about to start fegits

He's viable

But he immediately becomes impossible to play if you get trilaned because he can't jungle. But you don't have to worry about trilanes until high 4k.

>trailer trashy pink-nigger that is probably Irish thinks he is civilized or good at dota

How is this kind of delusion called?

trumpism

>MEEPO FIRST BAN
/our hero/ is back guys

>pudge and vengeful spirit can now swap/hook people onto cliffs without giving them free pathing because valve didn't bother implementing it on the new map
>this was the entire reason blink was disabled on pudge and venge for several years
Nice game dotards

>you will never suck on Sheevers big breasts.

>big
They're nice, but don't fool yourself.

we're in the memepush deathball meta, so I think the midas into aghs build is kinda dead right now. I've seen a lot of early force staves and dagons on nyx nowadays, but you should always search for a high mmr replay of the hero u want to play before playing it.

...

While you are right about trilanes being super constant in 4k (Right now im 4.2k MMR wanting to reach 5k) and him not being able to jungle is certainly bad bounty runes exist in both sides and I can just sneak and get both and perpaphs rotate to apply some pressure on the enemy mid.

I usually pms > mana boots > if doing good blink and if not aether > aghs > once I get the level 20 extra gold I focus on either getting dagon or octarine for maximum mana burning.

thanks for reading my blog suscribe etc

>WE WUZ DOTA PLAYAH N SHEEEEEIT

would guys rather play Dota with EE forever until the end of times or be immoral but you'll be a fuckdoll till earth blows up.

Where's the downside on the second one?

>C9 smoke gank

>fucking shit their pants when they see Weaver and Juggernaut

MY FUCKING SIDES

i think midas is actually super important on this hero after arcanes, otherwise you just completely fall off if your team isn't snowballing

I'm a 2k scrub so I'd gladly play with him.

The perfect girl doesn't exis...

what the fuck is that thing

>SamH gets another gank
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

what the fuck are those memers doing?

dotabuff.com/blog/2017-01-14-7xx-pub-tier-list

We're even having /r9k/-tier made up stories, it seriously can't get any worse

is there ANYONE who whines about veil ember that actually play the hero?
I've seen so many people complain about it and erry single time its 'I actually haven't played ember since 2014 but my opinions is valid'

the psuedo region lock that everyone has been wanting for years is finally implemented.

Im not even lying when I say that I havnt had a SINGLE spanish speaking teammate since yesterday. Every game is a literal racewar and it couldnt possibly be any better.

This has literally been the best update in dota history and has singlehandedly redeemed 7.00 for me

Can anyone explain why Tusk has such a low win rate now? Haven't played in a while.

>made up
ye, no, really not

Only bad problem is a lot of Europeans are complaining about it.

I hope Valve doesn't cave in to all the whining.

>blonde
>brown skin

americans sure are funny

>meme ember loses yet another competitive game
mhhhh

>Pinoys win 800k
>Become millionaires in their own country.
>News of this will cause wave upon wave of third world shitters to take up Dota

RIP

Valve are pretty stubborn about things once they add them so I think it's here to stay

what country r u from?

His spells used to be really strong, and then they got nerfed into oblivion. It's to the point where none of his spells are individually powerful, they all require some sort of teammate followup to be really useful.

The thing about that is that you can pick heros that don't have the problem, or have better set up for teammates. Also the hero is slow as shit and has mana problems to boot.

Solo queue got removed though.

not removed just tweaked ;)

>that tfw when no artour stream

guys I miss russians
;____________________________;

There literally used to be checkbox for a solo queue where everyone in the match would be a solo player and they silently removed it.

>You will never get fucked by singsing

thanks friend, i always knew d2g has my back even if janny doesn't

>wanting another playerbase split in a ded game

post adelaide?

that's a rare feel

I was about to download dota 2 today because i want something to play on linux, but the reviews said the new update killed it. Is this true or is it just overreactions?

true

nah russians that are 5k+ are normally the tryhardest of tryhard, and they will gladly play support too

Overreactions

Where can I mute the All Chat but keep the Allied Chat? Please respond

adelaide

maybe

i dont know

if you're white you'll enjoy the new patch

just mute the entire enemy team?

>I need a safe space

I remember it was just a checkbox before, did valve really take out that feature? I want to believe.

>overthrow S T I L L hasn't been patched for 7.00
>custom games in 7.00 are still completely broken

nigger they S T I L L haven't fixed 7.00, what makes you think fixing custom games is anywhere on any sort of priority?

it's a free game you fucking white man

What if they announced that this year's TI was to be played in Dota 1

dota imba

What if they announced they were parting ways with icefraud and it was just back in his control?

>dota imba
we're talking about custom games, not 7.00

hue

dota imba

The major patch that just hit turned the UI into garbage and turned the game into a hero brawler

The UI is (very) slowly being fixed and the gameplay balance issues are temporary. That being said the current state of the game is strictly worse than before 7.00. However, If you live in Western Europe or North America a minor patch that was implemented yesterday brought the greatest change that the game has ever had. If you live in either of these places I would strongly suggest playing the game because the largest issue the game had is now gone.

well my uni begins in 4 days too so it mightve been the same boat
