previous:

does everyone have the feeling that general skill of pro teams gone worse over last couple of years? i feel like every top team nowadays like OG or Liquid or DC or whatever wouldn't had a chance against TI5 EG or TI3 Alliance
did they really become worse?
did dota become so much more complex and there is more opportunities to fuck up and look bad? or it's became so balanced so there is no OP heroes to abuse and look unstoppable?
or is it me gitting gud so i notice mistakes more easily?

Yeah I've had that feeling too

It's impossible to prove, though

how do we fix this hero?

delete

GUESS WHO'S BACK

Maybe the game just changes too fast and too dramatically for people to really wrap their heads around it. We could see wild swings in the meta even without patches.

reduce base stats and growth

>Alliance VS Secret finals
>whoever wins, d2g will be mad

what a great monday to be alive

I have quite the opposite feeling. Teams from 3 years ago wouldn't stand a chance against today's counterparts.

you're wrong
skill level has always gone up
ti3 alliance would get fucking destroyed on this patch by any decent team

>d2g will be mad if OUR GUYS [A] win

?

Remove roar from bear.
Increase BAT.

His talents are going to get dumpstered and his fear shit will be removed.
Doesn't make any sense to keep him how he is his ultimate is barely used.

>TI3 alliance was good

buff bear talents
remove respawn time talent
in fact remove respawn time talent from every core and every hero that can slow down push

LOOOOL

Secret got honey potted HARD #potted

2-0 incoming

???? They win TI hence they were the best

Sheever best girl

and navi won TI1 what's your point?

Melania's pnethouse photos

>tune in to game
>secret have all the map control
>alliance have an alch with only a 1k gold lead

>Our President is going to beat the swedecuck
>Envy is going to choke to our boy BSJ
>Our Ogre already made it
Best Major to date?

switch damage type of bear and man

I think it's because of the last few patches. Dota was always changing but most things like map locations and basic mechanics remained unchanged for years and that allowed players to properly master the game. Last patches changed too many things too fast and noone has truly mastered the new dota yet.

nice infest you fucking cuck

im rooting for liquid in kiev

My point is that TI3 was the best team of it's time

Are you dense ?

>ALLIANCE

>Lelliance

I think alliance will still win

merge rabid and true form like LD transforms into true form when using rabid and while under effects of rabid.
shorten the duration for like 8/9/10/11 seconds or something short so it wont be stupid that you are on true form for 30 seconds.
its also logical that animals are mostly the source of rabies.
out of all this exaggeration, its rabid that makes range LD possible.
It was legit without the talents and was made more legit today after the talents came.

also, LD's ult is bullshit if not for the free dodge and battle cry

t. LD memer

can you invalidate this graph?

>retard shitposting

>reddit spacing
>reddit team
I wonder..........

BSJ TROLL WARLORLD

LETS GO FREEDOM

CIA is fucking awesome, I have no complaints

i used to play ld with a basher on the hero and on the bear in dota1

>LMAO DUDE WACKY SKILLSHOTS aka league ripoff is top tier
???

Dota team skill capped at TI5, no one to date could beat AUI-era EG

I was actually trying you to back your claim

That is, that TI3 Alliance was a bad team

Too bad you can't

You can only spam ebin meme I guess :)

>Instead of having fucking NAVI on a SLAV MAJOR we get:
>A pinoy team
>2-3 chink teams noone will care about
Bravo Valve

so does only the winner of secret vs alliance goes to kiev?

same
perma-roots ftw

Been watching this game for a couple of hours now and I've spent the entire time repeating the words "This is reddit, this is memes, this is reddit, this is memes..." under my breath.

I fucking hate it.I've been writhing around on the floor in front of my sofa for the last 30 minutes it was so painful.

>Ayy I like shit games
If you liked it you're in the wrong place

no dota 2 custom game beats wc3 yet, so that's invalid

maybe if they were good they'd be playing in the major

>ignoring the million Chinese viewers that tune in every major and TI
Have you ever considered why people can get half million streaming contracts in China?

here's your free reply

What do you mean by this ?

We can't do that here

Wasn't this a about Borderlands 2 originally?

who is >we

*flies to your continent*

*joins your team*

*destroys it*

heh, nothin personnel, demon

Loda's too heavy

>Loda
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

?

alliance are ba-

>game winning rune

wow gg

Every casting team is just pandering to reddit as much as they can so they get an appreciation thread and hope they get the most upvotes so valve sees that and decides to hire them
Although moonduck is worse IMO because the pandering interferes with the casting itself, at least BTS is wise enough to only do that shit in between matches

>loda naix
>4.5k damage

i was mad at first since CIS got only one spot at major but i am okay with it now
all those shitters except for VP don't deserve a chance at valve event
still better than NA dota overall

They should pander to the 12 autistic misfits that use d2g.

>still better than NA dota overall
>A region that hasn't managed to be relevant since TI1

Us, the people debating TI3 Alliance :D

Or was it TI4 allaince I forgot haha

haha

So Secret realized Loda is only good if he can rice 30 minutes uncontested. Ez 2-0 for Puppan.

Xd

They did, it was called the GD studio, although their shit was a bit less forced and more original

>cannot stand le epic maymay
>watch the slav stream
>mfw listening to russian

>bulba shits out at last place in TI with Puppey, PLD RTZ and EE
>jimmy places higher with a ragtag group of pinoys as a captain
>bubla gets to be onyx's drafter
>most likely the shotcaller too

He should not be getting away with it.

What does the word xd means ?

I'm new I don't know everything haha

haha

been cleaning my keyboard for the past hour because i was dumb and spilled coffee
is le presidente doing it?
also what happened to bears why cant they beat alliance?

That was before everyone with a brain left d2g and migrated to reddit. There are 35 posters on d2g right now, half of them are from people changing ip to evade bans.

actually this whole thread is just you me and my botnet

...

>north american defense of the ancients two gameplay

Alright, I really don't like Bulba's playstyle where he's splitfarming when his entire team groups up for objectives. Tidehunter should really be with either his Jugg or Invoker at all times if they aren't splitpushing themselves.
He did it with his gamelosing playing-from-behind Abbadon games where he always got radiance and he's doing it now.

>RP on one that does nothing
Why does mike keep playing magnus.

"My botnet"? That's how you call your wife's son now?

Yo ya boy botnet here, stop using google chrome.

>skill shots
>not fun

you should stop watching cuck porn
t. ur botnet

>mfw Brits talk shit all day about na but there have been 0 zero z-e-r-o British teams/players of any relevancy
>B-b-but were EU
AHAHAHAHAHAHahaaaa

here we go

Sheever is really hot sometimes and really ugly othertimes what is going on?

I shouldn't post this here but there are 2 Sheevers.

so she's just like literally every person on earth?

>6.84
Don't you mean 6.82 AKA The Great Juiceshitters Genocide.

She was never the same after Nahaz slapped her on stream

>skill shots
>taking skill
literally a made up term by riot to make shitters think LoL is rewarding

that's kinda how it goes for most women over 30

vid? for science

bigger they are
harder they fall?

if she looks hot its most likely because ODpixel gave her the ODpeenor

Do you always look your best?

TNC are miles ahead compared to Alliance and Secret
Don't get fooled with nobody on TNC having 8k it's the hardest region to get MMR in, only turboautists or the best mechanical players get it here
Thats why Puppey has focused on SEA aside the EE problem and
Chinks are usually the ones that gets ahead of the meta and Valve is going to see them rekt again

would still bang

women were a mistake

here
[redacted]

>wahh wahh LoL came up with a term
>I am in a moba thread wahh wahh
>oh I am also posting in a hacker site wahh wahh

Is it over for alliance?
