>CM is overpowered

the gulag speaks

I know some Dota developers read this thread. This is what would make me love Dota again.

-Shrines can only be used once per game, destroyable any time
-There are only 3 shrines in the base now, one behind each tower
-Activated Shrine refills bottle

-Remove all jungle bounty runes
-One bounty rune spawns on the odd minute on a random spot in the river, gives 3 bottle charges

-Scan can only be used once per game
-Fortification does not refresh after Tier 1 Towers fall

-All buildings now grant the same 200 gold, have the same 1600 health
-Tier 1 Towers now have the same armor aura as Tier 2 and Tier 3.
-Tier 1, 2, 3 Towers and all Barracks have 16 armor
-Tier 4 Towers, Ancients, and Shrines all have 24 armor

-Remove all talents dealing with GPM, XPM, Respawn Time, and Evasion
-Remove all talents that simply add multiple projectiles to a hero's ability
-Remove all talents that give giant bonuses, regardless of them being strong or weak

-Bottle and Salve are dispelled by all units again
-Roshan pit should be properly blended into the Dire side environment
-Return some asymmetry to the map, return some advantages and disadvantages to each side
-Illusions don't give gold, only give small amount of XP
-Remove Tome of Knowledge, Enchanted Mango, and Faerie Fire
-Remove or remake all unused and shitty meme Aghanim's
-Neutral camps spawn every 1 minute and 30 seconds

-Return atmospheric fog and deeper colors to the map
-Remodel more old character models

More psychological depth, as opposed to artificial depth created by spamming items, abilities, and giant random stat changes that no one can keep track of. More risk, risk assessment, precious resource management. More consistency. Getting rid of junk and fluff. More options. More viable strategies and team compositions. Less shit flying everywhere during fights. Less running around hitting shit, collecting runes, and then healing shitty generic MOBA gameplay. Return of some of the older gameplay and Dota personality.)

Is battlefury ember still viable?

1st for the best Mid in the world

YOUR TEAM DIDN'T WIN A TI

IT'S NOT RELEVANT

IT'S THAT SIMPLE

Wait

Looks like your argument doesn't hold.

please remind me which manager sperged out about some qt in a video last night

>He can't compete when it matters

Only TI placement counts

Top 3 every single relevant TI

That's how you get the money and prestige

All other tourneys are just regular season games

>50% win rate
No, 60.5% winate at Kiev.

>she does nothing lategame
Strongest root in the game with a disarm, that lasts 3 or talented to 4.5 second on a 6 second cd.
250 or talented 550 aoe nuke with a 4.5 second 50% ms ias slow on a 9 second cd.

>every game goes late
Not with a CM because you win all your lanes.

>mfw sharting

DAILY REMINDER THAT TNC IS TIER ONE NOW
>OG BTFO at TI
>Blown Secret away at Starladder
>Destroying NA dota in the group stages
All they need is a strat against Faceless and they win TI7

...

more than that, he's a con artist who invented ''''commando krav-maga"""" and faced a lawsuit for fraud since he pretended he was in the special forces despite no actual records of anything and absolute nobody to recall him being here

>Nothing I said is wrong, pretty sure she also has the only hero root with a disarm as well.
If you weren't a moron you'd know that half the roots cancel TP and plenty of others also prevent attack. Ember's and Treants all do.

Saying it mini stuns is pointless, because all this means is it cancels current animations and channeling, which even Naga root does too. Fucking 2k bads.

Jark pls

Sorry but no team that loses to a SEA team can be considered "TIER ONE"

...

jesus, he actually did it

SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE HIM

Why is there no Team Tag Tournament in dota?

>OG & VP

THE SHARTENING

Might as well remove shrines, mad Slavs and peruvians will just pop all the shrines in round start

how can an asian look so mexican

he needs to lay off the vaping

Arteezy OUT

pinoys are literally the asian mexicans

reminder that most of them are already fathers of multiple childrens

Literally only redditor pseuds who listen to dadrock like Queen give a shit about Justin Bieber. I can guarantee you even /mu/ doesn't shit their pants about him.

>Shrines work once per game
Oh, so totally pointless?
>Only 3 shrines in the base now, one behind each tower
Literally fucking pointless. Why would a shrine be there when fountain is right behind it?

>Destroyable any time
>Refills bottle
Agree with these.

>Remove jungle bounty runes
>one bounty rune spawns on the odd minute in random spot
Trash. Why would you add RNG to this game? Why would you make supports and jungle playstyle shittier? Ur dumb.

In fact, I'm going to stop here because my head hurts from your retardation. I'm tried of this bullshit; basically you're fucking stuipid and stop posting.

>this is how the white race dies

i'm trying my best to get yous bare with me

never gets old

So OG, Secret, Liquid, and the entire NA Dota scene are not tier one now?
Fuck yes

I contained my laughter up to
>Navi is the 2nd best CIS
almost died at
>Alliance shown great potential

And wings/random disbanded, keep up with the news lebanon.

Is it still good to get drums on invoker between midas and aghs?

ended that game with

1.3k hero damage
zero tower damage

and

he auto attacked a single enemy hero

once

I like dota but playing support has always felt like aids. Why is that?

The problem lies in the fact that you as a support are basically fodder. I hate feeling like fodder. It feels like you aren't really a active member of the team but instead just there to buy time until the carry gets whatever items. Games regularly go to 45-60 min mark. No games ever end at the 20 min mark or before.

All the support heroes feel unfun sometimes because you are forced to buy certain items just to survive, not even to do anything cool or fun. Like buying a glimmer cape is good but its not really a fun item. Yet cores get to buy plenty of fun items and are effective.

As a support, if your team is losing, you are like extra losing because not only do you have to waste gold on wards and shit but you will also be broke because well.. your team is losing.

Should supports always get midas? I just don't understand what a support is to do if you are losing. Its even worst if the enemy team has invis heroes. God I hate invis heroes. Buying sentries and dust all the time just destroys your fucking wallet. One game I was on mana boots and a magic stick by minute 30. I had to buy that many sentries that it totally just raped my wallet.

What to do in a situation like that?

>needs runes as support and jungler to do well
You
Are
Bad

>If you weren't a moron you'd know that half the roots cancel TP
But I said it ministuns, not that its the only one that cancels TP. Am I wrong? Is CMs root not randomly the only one in the game that has an extra ministun on it? Making up you own arguments is not how you actually communicate with other humans.

>and plenty of others also prevent attack. Ember's and Treants all do.
Embers root does not disarm, the new Ancient does, and yes, treants ult does but thats a fucking ultimate with a long CD. Nothing else, 1 ultimate, 1 neutral creeps, and CMs 6 second cd spell. Does this not sound very overly strong to you?

Try making an argument or learning to read before you sperg out and look like a fucking ape.

>Everyone is Lebanon

>Navi
They just got Sonneiko m8
This is the last hurrah for Navi
>Alliance
Someone didnt watch the Kiev qualifiers

Bro just play pudge. Never ever position 5 support.

Must we have this post every two threads, Jesus fucking CHRIST

Supports get too much as it is we basically have a 4 core meta now

does anyone have a screencap of the original SHARTEEZY poster?
I figure it will do wonders for my meme portfolio

Name a more iconic duo, I'll wait

>look at all these regular season games we won
>*Gets slaughtered in playoffs*

wow! What a great sports team

which music pack is the best?

>th-this time they are back for sure!
I don't know, after hearing the same 50 times I'd rather wait and see.
>Someone didnt watch the Kiev qualifiers
I did, and they played well... but not against top teams. It's very different. It's not the first time Alliance plays well on a qualifier post TI3 and then gets BTFO later on.

>you're a super high skilled player but you tilt if something doesn't go as planned even a very very very small mistake
or
>dogshit and the most abysmal player to ever exist but you don't tilt and has 3% chance of having 2 God tier players on your team

>that's totally the same IG than the TI2 roster guys

Which is the one day9 uses with the spooky respawn theme

NaVi has Pajkatt

i actually believe in Alliance more than I do NaVi

>Haha sharteezy
>it sounds like shart get it guys lol
>because he's shit at the game isn't it funny
>let's force this meme to death till it gets even more stale
reminder you have to be over 18 to post here

You are playing the wrong supports.

Unfortunately Icefrog has mandated that all the fun supports are not allowed to be good.

Visage is pretty decent at the minute, just weird compared to how he used to play so its a bit jarring.
ET dogshit, Tusk is shit, Oracle is shit, Ench is shit, Dirge is shit.

go stream shartour

>all those pimples

I'll never understand why yuros get so insanely triggered by rtz

It's like poetry, it rhymes

>yuros
maybe because it's not euros, why would europeans get triggered by a player that has achieved nothing?

the only time RTZ triggered me is when he ruined secret with EE

>Gets the worst season in a while
>Still managed to be at the cup finals
Fucking hell if Arsenal doesnt get the FA cup Wenger would be laughed at like Moyes in Manure

Oh yeah forgot about that
Fuck has the temper of Kim Jong Un
I would love to see them crash and burn at TI7 qualifiers

I'm NA

patriotic EG fans cheer for Shartour and Sh1ts departure

1st one is Arteezy

2nd one is Notail

this one?

CM is a hungry cockslut!

what makes OG win 4 fucking majors?
I think by now we can agree that Miracle actually didnt just carry them to victory in the first 2 ones, but that it had more to do with captaining and shot calling and general game strategy
It doesnt even matter if OG loses 2 lanes including mid, because they will just recover in mid to late game
Whats their secret?

>60% winrate and most picked hero of Kiev

Supports can't be OP.

>redditors assblasted because rtz hates Reddit

>d2g, the Reddit embassy, also hates him

europeans so butthurt the american experiment worked they tried to form their own federation of states and fucked it up beyond belief.

Do you think Arteezy should go back to mid? The safelane role is far too passive or low impact or something. It really feels like the entire game hinges on how much impact the midlaner has.

caused me some consideration

proof?

Will this finally be swindles TI?

Here's your shrine fix:
All shrines outside base can be used by both teams with separate cd for each team.

TI4 is the best music pack from now until the end of time

All in on honeypots
First round exit at TI

One of the TI ones, I personally hate it, too In your face and excessive.

new bloom
desert is different to dota2's normal music theme so i like to shuffle it to anything

This got you convinced?

>. This is what would make me love
>me
Who fucking gives a shit what you like you autistic american inbred entitled manchild

Go complain to your Mcdonalds manager that your burger doesn't have enough fat in it and you want a coupon to eat for free for an entire year

Yes, sumail needs to be kicked way too over aggresive and forces the team to give him the farm rather than Arteezy.

Cr1t also needs to go since he can't draft or captain for shit. Every fucking game he picks Arteezy some shitty carry and leaves him alone in the safelane to fend for himself while babysitting Sumail

>mad Slavs and peruvians will just pop all the shrines in round start
thats a good point but i dont think a game should be designed around the instability of savages at low mmr. theres a report feature for that.

this is the dumbest post i've ever read on here. would you happen to be from reddit?

No, she looks like she's in pain. Did she get ganked?

Can anyone translate this into actual english instead of being the ramblings induced by a heart attack
