So what's a good soap to use that isn't harsh on the skin?

frog3 will never be a thing sadly, these are the only two images ever taken of that frog.

life... truly a cruel mistress

I'm so fucking done with this game
I've lost the last 5 of my games
Why?
Because other people are fucking retarded
This is why I stopped doing ranked 3 years ago

I decided to give it a shot again. I know I can make shit happen in games. I can win more games than I lose

But fuck this. Every game there is one person who when things matters, decides to lose the game

Example: Person randoms Enigma. Then places PvE and splitpushes instead of team fights.
Example: We're pushing hard into enemy base. They have 2 dead. Their AntiMage is trying to split push. Two of us TP back. AM tps home, kills our core in the retreat. We never regain the momentum
Example: Pushing last rax, they have 2 dead. Our WR is 2/3 health. Decides to run back to our shrine to heal. Our BountyHunter (who by the way jungled for half the game) with Guardian Greaves, goes back with her. We get wiped. Never regain the advantage.

When I play unranked, all my Dotabuff games are Very High Skilled
I play ranked, it's Normal.

It's so fucking stupid that this can happen.

only minimap man, because muh stream snipes

>can barely draw viewers
>no team wants him because he refuses to adapt
>meme online store that sells memeshirts failed big time
>no future outside streaming
can't blame him

1. it covers his mini map to stop stream sniping just a bit.
2. $$$

Reminder to pick legion every game and split push.
Retards will fall for the defend meme.

were did it go wrong bros?

adelewd¿

How good is DP this patch? She is literally memefight/mempush the hero.

sorry to inform you mate adelaide was killed on a traffic accident yesterday

at least in pubs, DP will always likely be garbage simply because her ult cd is too long
she requires coordinating with your teammates to be effective and that's a recipe for disaster

>no master of karate or friendship dude

holy shit he IS the dayman

MEME MAGIC MUST BE STOPPED

post useless dogshit items

ill start

what the shit

>even d2g memes are merging into the timeline

Is this bait? Sheepstick is among the best items in the game, so consistently good that I think is the one thing in dota that hasn't been touched in forever.

Shit, other items get balanced around Sheepstick.

thats pretty good coposter

svythe of vyse is not sheepstick. thats euls sceptor

>t. reddit

Don't reply to trolls.

gulag, which professional dota 2 team is your favorite?

hard mode: you can't say team NP

>hard mode
more like easy mode

MVP.Phoenix.

mouz of course

fuck anime

and fuck white people

>listening to Machintosh Plus in 2017

When do eSports happen again?

On my way to a one bite kill.

>hey guys look at my 3k mmr blogpost

2k?

Where is the hurricane pike though

So everyone on your team quit and you sold all the items to buy a Rapier?

What do you guys think of high ground being covered in shrines? Has the frog gone too far in making high ground hard to push? Or do all the new attack range buffs balance it out

Shrines are cool.

Chinks are decent teammates. They can't really communicate but they try harder and give up less easily than south Americans

>matched with chink 4 stack
>ez +25
pick one you fucking liar

I'm starting to believe it.

does sing have it all figured out?

user, I....

what you are talking about that atos offlane am is the real MVP

yeah chinks are probably the best teammates on average
they try really hard and don't spend the whole game soapboxing like english speakers

Techies is overrated

Nothing triggers me more than some fluent english speaker typing into textchat all game

>buying a goypendium
I hope you're at least selling all of your treasures user.

I would but valve apparently installed some kind of counterjew technology and half of my treasure 2 are unmarketable.

At this rate I may only break even.

I stopped dota 2 a month ago due to retarded teammates.

Has the community stopped being retarded as fuck yet?

>Singsing solo queuing again
What a time to be alive

event items are untradable, compendium rewards are normally tradable.

yes yes, sell your treasures back
use the market place, give us 25% of every item on top of the money spent on the goypendium
all for around a 1-2 dollar profit
you're really cheating the system here!

Naa mate. Some people are finding 2 of their 3 winter treasure 2 to be unmarketable. These are the ones you get for leveling up in the battlepass.

I'm just going to hold onto them in hopes valve fixes it and because most of the sets in that treasure are pretty shit.

I bought the fall battlepass for 150 shekels, god enough shekels back to get 3 games plus the winter battlepass.

I don't consider this as cheating the system, it's only playing it the way it's supossed to, however I do not do this for the ammount of money earned instead because, even if it's just a small ammount and even if I end up giving it back to Valve, I can at least say I made money by playing dota and that is already worth crossing it out in my life checklist.

>give steam 10 dollars, get 10 steam dollars
>buy every compendium for 8-10 steam dollars
>sell treasures and make more than 8-10 steam dollars everytime
>repeat
I think it's an extremely good deal user, I pay 10$ one time and end up with a lot of extra sets, items, etc...and get to 'participate' in every event. You make more than enough to get your steam bux back each time, and end up with extra steam bux to buy stuff on the marketplace.

>careing who else makes money as long as you profit

I know this is a foreign concept to you dotards but that is pretty much what a job is. You do things and make money while someone else makes more money for not doing anything.

Valve might as well just pay me to buy and sell their shit.

How is Slark in pro Dota 2?

>wagecuck mentality
jkjk, i am happy youre killing doturd, enjoy the taste of your own medicine

the hero is not good atm

balanced to bad because Slark is better when he enemy is stupid and pros are usually good players.

the weakness with slark is that he's relatively weak at teamfighting compared to other carries and you can't rely on pick offs as much against good players
