Last Time on /d2g/:

first for matu

>1 meme early

Is godz expecting an attempt on his life?

well, d2g?

>redditors are retards and we hate them but I'm cool I only read it ironically

What status does he have, autistic man child?

Now that we know Icefrog name what about his ethnicity?
Has to be either Arab or Persian right?

He is 100% British

...

he was born and raised in sweden

How do you go from second place at TI to being secret tier bad?

Is this the best role switch?

Is adelaide dare I say... /ourshitposter/?

Why is it that whenever TI rolls around Razor get a popularity spike in pro games?

YYF did it first

To save the strong heroes for TI.

if you like sing so much why you dont suck his dick you slut

who?

Yes, because it actually made sense. He played offlaney heroes anyways. Better to have an actual snowballing mid instead

so is ZOTAC worth watching or is it shit?

he plays the exact same role he did as the mid on alliance
the game has evolved to the point where other lanes can achieve the gold/xp necessary to be as effective as the mid laner once was

It's clowny and the lan footage is hilarious but moonduck are casting

>Steady 54% winrate since forever
>Be "high skill" for a few months
It's alright, win alot more than I lose, usually even matches teammates are on average pretty decent, play their own game and don't give up. If they want you to do something they just say it.
>Get to "very high skill"
Teammates spend more time telling you things they don't like about you, then actually playing their hero. They forego last hits and kills to theorycraft and backseat play my hero like the classic stream-cucks that they are, the wisdom they so eagerly share they for some reason cannot implement in their own gameplay because they're objectively doing worse than me.

How can people be this autistic?

>mason with his arch nemesis and some gooks

I honestly prefer moonduck to BTS these days

>I did not have either back then
He also didn't have a girlfriend back then either but now that he has both money and social status, he has a girlfriend.

What the fuck is this autist trying to say?

>Mason joining DC was so devastating Sunsfan dropped DC entirely
What's Sunsfan doing now?

>alohanonce

nothing
said he wanted to get back into casting

1993 world trade center, air india, and bombay stock exchange buildings were all bombed by muslim terrorists.
Air India was 23 floors and the stock exchange was 28 but fuck you it's good enough.

FRIENDLY REMINDER

Feminine penises and cute lolis are NOT degeneracy.

Why is sheever at dreamleague? I thought she was gonna do chemo

she's dying & hosting dreamleague is one of the last rites

Between sessions you usually get a week or two to recover, so she probably feels mostly okay right now to work the next 2 days

delusion is a powerful tool user
wield it wisely

we all know this but what is the official /d2g/ consensus on ntr?

Is the game still any fun? I played during the beta and shortly after because I loved that the game was full of cheesy gimmicks that could actually win games as opposed to other mobas but my friends stopped playing so I left. I wanted to come back but someone told me that they nerfed virtually all cheese to the ground. Can anyone elaborate on that?

what's icefrog's email? I want to ask about vector targeting

Weird shit for freaks. Unless you are american or swede, then it's mainstream and socially acceptable

cheese got buffed, Rosh drops it on second kill now :^)

Where does roshan's cheese come from anyway? He(?) doesn't seem to have tits and looks more like a bull than a cow which makes me fear the worse if you know what I mean. Just think how many times you have eaten rosh's ""cheese"".

smegma dummy

why did you crop out the penis user

Is that one of the meepo sluts?

How is memeleague?

Good one. For real though. How are things along the lines of dagon spam, permastun lanes, instakill ult combos, characters that can abuse refresher orb, ohko eartshaker, dark seer+invisible heroes etc.

sheever's back from the dead & looking for revenge

Are the sequences between games still more fun than the games themselves?

>can I still do dumb shit and lose the game
yes you can user

Except you could win with that shit reliably and that was the biggest upside of the game.

>People used to complain about too many third party tournaments
>Wanted Valve to intervene
>Now they're complaining that Valve killed all the third party tournaments

uhhh...dotards???

>get two players that pick supports, Bounty Hunter and Bane
>turns out neither of them are actually supporting
>you're now a solo offlane support Axe

every time i'm forced to play anything besides support

i lose

because I have to leave the act of warding, pulling, ganking, etc to some drooling retard who thinks he can do it, when I know for a god damn fact he can't.

post comfy item builds

No shit, none of what you listed is even "cheese", it's just normal dota. You don't even know what you are talking about. No, dagon is not removed. No, refresher is not removed. Yes, stunts still exist and you can pick multiple "characters" with stuns. Yes, heroes with invisibility are still in the game and yes, they can be picked in a team with dark seer.

veno

just play LoL if you're really bothered by all this normal dota stuff
it's unironically made for people like you

>you could win with that shit reliably
If you could win with it reliably (against non shitters) then it's not cheese you mongoloid. If you want to see dumb shit happen then go watch a Sing stream. He put Luna Ult on Spectre and Haunted around the map for free kills, not sure if that constitutes "cheese" for you.

This fucking bear man

>TBirds alacrity bear

offlane isn't that bad; you can buy your own wards, pull your own camps, make rotations by yourself

How the fuck is this bear doing so much damage

It's like three hits to kill a rax

But there was never much cheese potential to begin with and with each rework an interesting playstyle is removed from the game.
Shit, that kind of info is available easily enough for me to know it still exists. Though witch doctor faceless void is gone. I want to know if it's as viable as in the early days of dota2 so I won't go into a game and end up banging my head against a wall of meta.

still doesn't change the fact that he's a walking sperglord.
although, that's the only thing he had to change.

It had double damage and -armor on rax

Alacrity gives damage.
Bear has a passive that deals even more damage to buildings.

Is lvl1 rosh with two heroes still a worthwhile investment?

>Though witch doctor faceless void is gone.
Just stop talking.
The only thing I can think of being removed is fountain hooking.

Come at me

>earth spirit is a fun, balanced character but it's potential can unfairly skyrocket in the hands of a pro
>nerf makes him utter shit in the hands of the average player

People don't know what they want. But they just want big leagues like the NFL and smaller leagues that no one but nerds watch

is this how you're supposed to play techies

I like the Major system and I am THE guy Gaben asks about these things

Oh shit thanks for reminding me. That was fun. And it might still exist but in its current state pulling it off is a negligible reward if its your lane main plan for snowballing.

>Thunderbirds won their games from a LAN cafe

i like to make lines in the lanes

Do people find these terrible skits funny?

I wanna play disruptor but I'm tired of playing support, is there any other position he fills nicely?

Core disruptor

when dreamhack does csgo, do they do the same kind of content like this?

This is kino

Maybe I am confused. How is it any different than it used to be?

owen is a retard
it's like watching a six year old

Owen is so entirely our guy

No.
This is how you play a worthless piece of shit who makes your team play 4v5 and feeds enemy supports who aren't braindead.

>salmonella is only in the yolk
That's not right, right?

>that six year old acting retard is balls deep in sheever every night

This is a professional dota stream

>unranked mmr got a point where i need to wait 7 fucking minutes for a game
wew
lads

>it's like a monster

Is meme league just an excuse for casters to fuck around?

>not playing international ranked
pussy

Does he have brain problems?

All these stupid meme segments need to be removed fom tournaments.
Ever since reddit slacks joined the scene every fucking tournament was more "le ebin memes" than actual gameplay.
Someone please get this guy fired.

>being a good goy
oy vey

this this this

that 100% has vodka in it

Why do you think we've called it memeleague for years

These dumb skits are the reason I watch this. The games themselves are pretty boring.

but we won and i went 8-2
