first for nyx assassin

second for nyx assassin

third for nyx assassin

nth for nyx

not the assassin

fifth for knicks assassin

Daily reminder that Leshrac is the best offlaner.

As if Valve couldn't get any more blatant of obvious with their signalling

There are only 2 regions now, China and Rest of the World

>make item models for dropped items
>use them for a cosmetic instead
>charge for it
Defend this

>All of this nyx posting

FUCK YOU GUYS I OVE YOU!

POST NYX PICTURES

aren't valve forced to release item drop rates now?

what about him makes him fit for the offlane?

>custom game behind a pay wall

REEEEEEEEEEE

Can someone pirate the custom game like they did with dark moon?

>here have some particles

Shut the fuck up

there is always a nyx assassin

onerous!

me as captain

Wow the new terrain looks like shit.

Actually it has a lot of nice little details and the river area is the best looking one among all the map terrains so far (honestly the river alone almost makes me want to give my shekels to valve even if I hated everything else in the goypendium) but when put together it feels like it just doesn't fit, also it fucking hurt my eyes, immortal gardens and MK maps felt like an improvement of the regular map in terms of how easy it is on the eyes, this one makes me think that I will be squinting to know where the fuck am I stepping on.

another emmisary of nyx

CRUSHED

Since the chests are tied inside the compendiums and not sold separately, it might be Valve's loophole of avoiding the requirement

thats what i thought. by refusing to answer my youve admitted that enchantress aka CuteLeshrac is the better offlaner

Truly the greatest hero.

Shut the fuck up.

I think you mean this

>after like 5000 games of dota, intentionally choose nyx into an int heavy lineup for the first time

okay i really, definitely never realized how good this is. You can just run anyone out of the lane or they die, and you have so many high damage spells to reflect/escape

make me!

This perfectly represents what playing dota is like.

>Still no sex assassin hero

sad

on countless balls!

>Clinkz taunt

>Clinkz taunt

>tfw too poor for that underwater map
;_;

>For you dear nyx, for you.

What did he mean by this?

i dont like that river

Shut the fuck up.

Everyone, go look at Lifestealer's taunt.

dota 2 without steam?

also as a new player, whats the best thing to focus on? my background is lol

No spring cleaning. Plus starting full time job soon. Equals no shekels given to Valve.

a little late on that one

enchantress is the only hot female (and even then not really in game)

lina's pretty hot
XD

in an abstract fetish way i guess

Shut the fuck up.

>WW taunt confirms she is literally the chain smoking librarian stereotype

int heavy lineup?
Nether Ward say hi

Good thing I saved up some money for the L75 Battle Pass.
And the treasure bundle if they bring It back from last year.

...

holy shit how rich are you?

4 digital inputs + VSR on an RX 480

I knew new taunts would be retarded but not THAT retarded youtube.com/watch?v=6exGMPsgyNA&feature=youtu.be.

webm please i don't have dota2 installed right now

>i don't have dota2 installed right now
/d2g/ in a nutshell

dota is such a ridiculously detailed game..who even notices creeps hitting the blood out of each other
i was high on acid the other day and noticed for the first time that lion has like a darkness aura following him

hehe

woooooooooowowoowoowooowoowooowoowooooooooooooooooooooowoowoowoowoowoowoowoowoowoooooooooooooowoowoowoowoowoowooo

wheres her deer puss puss

That's actually one of the worst things I've seen Valve do. And I've been playing since beta. Ouch.

>that lion has like a darkness aura following him
uhhh
you sure youre not tripping still

It looks even more ridiculous while moving
Imagine trying to play riki against that

We are just one step to see them on the game without paying for it?

Lol no, they removed them from the store in china to avoid this

What's with all the nyxposting

My favourite hero, to bad im on a phone and can't post pictures

I won a 50 mins hero quest with chen and didnt count in the daily hero quest fuck my life

Defend this

>go carry
>other people wont support

>go support
>carries cant end game

Fucking hell life in the trench is bad

HOLY SHIT WHAT GAME AM I EVEN PLAYING ANYMORE THIS IS INSANE, IS THE ENTIRE ORIGINAL TEAM JUST GONE AND REPLACED BY INTERNS FROM RIOT?

Sub-1k MMR report in

if you were actually in a bracket below your skill level you would win most games and climb out quickly. get better lol

>nyxposting

W-Whatever do you mean? Nyx Nyx.

BR will taunt everyone to a TI7 victory

kek

no beach qop set

oh

If i get Chen, Meppo, Chen, Meppo again fml

Is fine, i had an idea for a weapon for them that looks dumb, now i might need to do it since is a bit childish like this set

RIOT would be like: "Battlepass (level 1) is $30 bucks"

cringe cringe cringe, motherlover

Those immortals, rip my money

lol at least has writers from warhammer 40k, so no

>writers

Every god damn LoL lore is cringy as fuck, literally retarded and all over the place. Fucking space ninjas and midgets with bazookas, fuck off.

Riot, at least, would make sure every hero had a silly skin and a wacky taunt, instead of only some of them

I unironically dream of a day where the pro scene just devolves into non-stop taunting animations

>alien
>alien ghost
>literal gods
we have the same issue

The innertube is fine, everything else about the set is fucking bad. Why does it have a flower theme? It should be shells, fucking shells, not flowers, what the hell.

Yes, we do. That's why having writers form warhammer means horseshit.

What's wrong with it?

>Hero responses when you check them on the heros tab

Thats cool

Riot also has the 2006 graphics that we all love

Nah.
The strongest playable being lore wise in Dota is merely a demigod after he got demoted from being an actual god.
That said his actual power level is pretty mediocre due to him being debuffed so.

What is the strongest hero lore wise in Dota anyways? They've all been scaled down to relative terms with one another through various means. Tidehunter is the size of a skyscraper normally and all, I imagine Elder Titan was a fair bit taller before he joined the Fields of Battle.

ancient apparition is a part of a giant entity that'll exist until and after the heat death of the universe

i always thought it was aa

>What is the strongest hero lore wise in Dota anyways?

Enigma

LoL literally looks better than Dota 2 nowadays

...

How did he open the demo options on a full map?

you can demo the terrain itself

I sold all my Dota 2 items and quit like 2 months ago.
Is the game any better and should I buy the goypendium?

>literal homosexual/beastiality/paranormality(or what the fuck you call sex between ghost) announcer in the game

Uhh Dotards?

>it's true
>actually helpful

I'm a dotard, thanks.

no

I'm not sure that's a positive.

How quickly can you level up just by playing? I'm pretty over Dota but some of the rewards, the terrain, and the campaign sound awesome so I might play a bit but I'd only like to spend $20-$30 at most on buying levels.

...

yall are close but wrong
it's either ET, Weaver, CK, or FV

I once watched a youtube vid saying it was weaver, the dude literally weaves the multiverse or some shit like that.
