Well fuck this shit. TNC pretty much fucked all my prediction. Again.

I hate this team so much.

what are the best games to watch today beside burningAM and naga games i hate watching farming games

How did you do?

I have a gold I'm considering playing for Tims tomorrow, it has great bonuses, but fuck I really don't even want to play this team

Plus the guy looks like a fag in the face and Im wary of dudes that look like a fag

If you want some really stupid dota? The entire EG/Faceless series.

Raven 33 kills on spectre game

mouz newbee final game 74 minutes with ultracarry venge

Are there custom games where I can play the pre 7.00 dota in the dota 2 client??

growing senile old man?

Where are the erp/sexy customs yet? I'm a slut and everyone should know it.

>naga siren mindbreak sluttification
nnnnnooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>IG VS SECRET

threadly reminder that this retard pictured though EG would beat TNC in round 1

let's all take a moment to laugh

>be wraith king
>team isn't doing level 1 rosh memes so i level q
>some fag goes full autistic on me for not waiting to level skills
>on a hero with 1 (one) active skill
>a skill you will level in 99% of scenarios anyway

raven is a crazy good player. actually made me laugh how tb was forced to ban three of his picks during the third match.

don't know why I haven't heard of this guy until now.

>think back to TI4
>think about that awful deathball finals
>but the overall game was so great, the balance was great before bounty runes and shit, mid was great, you could still really carry hard and it mattered if you fed as support or offlane

And I realized, all they had to do was add the tower +armor per person aura to TI4 patch, and the game would've been fine for years with minor tweaks

Imagine TI4 finals with the towers getting +armor per opposing sieger... :(

seconding this

ur cards are shit mayne
you'd be better off picking basic cards but of players that actually do something
also fuck you amerilards and chinks for making me pick your miserable asses and lose points in the process

>don't know why I haven't heard of this guy until now.

he's a literal peruvian. Probably the only one good enough to escape to a t2 team though. I predict you'll actually see him on a major squad soon.

Post the equipment set you use on your dotafu.

>but the overall game was so great,

TI4 was basically the perfect time of dota bruh.

Without mentioning the "b-but its day 1 EG" meme.
Why were they complete god damn garbage in all their matches today?

protip there is literally no reason to level a skill before you use it.
Unless your apm is 30, in which case yeah you better get that button press out of the way.

it really wasnt. but you can delude yourself to believe whatever you want

you mean ti2

because sumail and arteezy notoriously dont take group stage games seriously and give up pretty quickly if they dont stomp

I can understand that on other heroes.
But it's fucking Wraith King.
A literal one-button hero.

The only time you don't take stun at level 1 is if you're going to be doing level 1 rosh or maybe if you're going to afk farm jungle uncontested.

i hadn't bought nunna cards, i bought figh dolla cards so now i have gooder cards for tomorrow. I'm gonna run these guys tomorrow.

struggling with my support picks as I have the gold tims (who actually did ok today) and silver Saksa, Fly, Jerax, Misery, IceIce and Puppey

I think Saksa wins out for teamfight and stun bonus plus I like him as a player a lot

End goal.

Try to guess.

>get 4 octarines
>0 CD on every spell

uuuuuuhhhhh, dotards?

that a strange way to say that small patch during DK's undefeated run at starladder

What a dumb system

ig vs secret
TNC vs VP

IG and Secret are both 4-0
TNC and VP are both 4-1

No advantage for not dropping a map

The system is literally pairing the perceived current #1 and #2 teams together instead of against the other undefeated teams that dropped a map.

If you want some really stupid dota go watch the five man midas shit TB pulled. Even have some spicy ratting in that one.

>get 4 bflys
>over 100% evasions

uhhh, dotards :^)

I meant hats, not items, you silly billy.

this system is shit.

I want groups back.

>complaining on d2g about it
might as well go yell at your pillow

round robin takes too long to execute

we'll see it at ti, but valve wants the major to last a week

>Z X C N on hotkeys

>OG playing like garbage now that they have been revealed as a patch team

Can BigShitty Honeylans resist his natural urge to start backstabbing?

>ig vs secret
>TNC vs VP
ez wins for both IG and VP

Cringiest post I've read.

Bulba to OG screencap this

This system has been infinetly more interesting than round robin or gsl.

yea so?

>check matches I missed
>DC 2-0'd newbee and only lost to our boy Puppan

stop shilling your shit video

I already reached level 60 so I just slapped down whatever came up first in the list.

this image is turning me on

Good.

What the fuck dude that's fucking sick
I mean that's a fish holy shit my man that image isn't supposed to turn you one wtf you're not natural
Your experience is totally different from everyone else's

>liquid VS DC tomorrow
Oh boy

doesn't matter, it still reinforces bad habits. just be patient and do that on EVERY hero, no exceptions.

>get 6 blink daggers
>can be anywhere on the map at any time

uuuhhhhh, dtards?

=(

I don't care if my team picks all carries, those games can still be won. What grinds my gears is when people don't group up. Five hard carries that make good rotations beats a better comp that doesn't, any day.

if you couldnt coordinate at picks why do you think the game would go any different?

>mute allchat
>start winning again
>dota becomes 100% less stressful
hmm

do not post lewd images of CM

Go on welfare.

thanks Varg gonna go do it right now

I didn't buy nuffin too, you can easily secure 8 levels by using only the packs you get from the battle pass. A friendly word of advice: pick supports that ward a lot or if you have like 20% wards planted bonus on them, I got over 40 points from warding alone on that saksa card with the bonus. Also don't stick to eg if you're not some kind of a na fanboy

Which hero do you guys think Donald Trump would play?

>I unironically made a radiance +3 butterflies spectre

Dark Seer

Earthshaker too.

If no one is grouping up in your games, then get ratting. Outside of the pro meta, split pushing was buffed way harder than people think.

NP went from useless to viable almost instantly and the Midas changes indirectly buffed Arc so hard that his 5k+ winrate is one of the highest in the game. It works well and is a fucking blast when done properly.

how is darkseer a counter to morph?

The Gambler, not like nu-/d2g/ knows him

How many fantasy points did you get d2g? I got 370.96, could have broken 400 if ana wasn't such a piece of shit.

AM or LC because he's a narcissistic idiot

please direct me towards the dota fapfiction

There's usually a Dota thread for that on /y/

this is meant to be ironic right

jesus christ the number of comments is probably greater than the combined iq of everyone that commented

thanks but not for me

>get 6 vlads
>free satanic for everyone

You know who i miss?
Overwatch poster
The guy who would post "you had your run dotards" and would post that webm of "Overwatch has 15 million new players"
Seeing TF3 dead in the water coupled with Major hype makes me miss him

>europoors waking up
>thread quality going down
every fucking day

Overwatch was very successful though. You have to understand that the Blizzard game lifespan is like 3 - 4 years at best. Then they make a new game and the entire playerbase just migrates to the new game, so in a sense sc2 never truly died but was just reborn in a new form.

>frogposter complaining about quality

>Waking up
>0:43AM

It's the Aussie shitposting squad waking up

more like Americans coming home from classes/work

At least SC was their IP to begin with, Overwatch was just BadTF2.

All chat is great though. Team chat is aids

>Giving a shit what retarded 3rd worlders say
>Not purposefully antagonizing them in a way that gets them reported and ruining the one thing that brings them joy in their sad miserable lives

that's like half the fun of this game

Overwatch hasn't even been out a year and it's 100% dead game arguably more dead than sc2 as an esport. Blizzard can't make good games anymore and they know it which is why they're cashing in on hd remakes while they're still relevant

>pick tinker
>win
uh, dotards?

post the meme

you know which one

>get 5 radiance and octarine
>deal 300 dps to every nearby hostile target
>heal 75 HP/s per target

what the fuck, i thought i locked in my roster way before the 24th. didn't count i guess. oh well

oh, just checked. set it for the 27th lol im retarded

>voidwalker slippers
>boots of travel 2+phase boots+4000g recipe
>+100 movespeed, inherent phase
>may be consumed granting a permanent 80ms, and free teleports to any structure or hero, but not phase
>teleports have 90sec cd
y/n

sounds like some angel arena shit

Still kinda new to dota. Any good faceroll combos for LC duels? Is it worth it picking Riki with her just for roaming together and doing backstab duels?

Far too expensive, by the time you get them phase won't do shit. It's just "pay 10k gold for another item slot".

post moar tactical diagrams

Invoker, slark, ursa, skywrath mage, disruptor
