Dota 2 General - /d2g/

Do you finally understand d2g

Do you finally get the Law Of The Honeypot

VP will pick WK
OG will pick Tiny
C9 will pick Bane
EG will pick Specter

One more sleep until main stage dotards. I'm so excited - I hate main stage because jumping from game to game doesn't really bring the hype like main stage does.

wtf is sing's problem? I thought his 'idont give a fuck about anything' attitude was exagerated

rofl he didnt even tell his own teammate

> I hate main stage because jumping from game to game doesn't really bring the hype like main stage does

frogposters man

sorry I mean I hate group stage because jumping from group to group. Yuro here, staying up late because group stage fucked my sleep pattewrn

umm dotards?

iktf user, this is the most excited I've ever been for a TI main event

I can't keep it a secret anymore, and can't post it on reddit for obvious reasons.

Valve decided to hire Day9 as the host 6 months ago, as they were trying to gain more players from the Star Craft scene and followers of Day9. While also stopping the players from getting attached to Redeye, after what happened with 2GD. What would accommodate Day9 with the game other than playing with a Dota personality and learning the game step by step, in order to show reddit that he is trying and having fun with one of their idols (Purge).

Also, Nahaz is never getting invited to any Valve event in the foreseeable future, because of Sheever's complain and allegations.

Have fun watching The International and wish you all the best.

forgive me user, it's 4am here ;_;

>only held up by a old man who craves power

Checks out

we all know what you meant friend

Scepter's a pretty good item regardless of hero

we already have windranger

...

>WK Sceptre in a pro game

>dota only his viewers during esports
truly the best game, no twitchbabs running the show

what is this sheever incident I keep hearing about?

REMINDER THAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL WEEK THAT BANE MID WILL BE PICKED IN AND WIN A BO1 TOMORROW.
also while we are at it
>spectre
comes online way too slow for this meta, but we may see her
>tiny
shit hero, doesn't do what he is picked to do very well.
>wraith king
lmao a 3500 gold item with a good buildup that nearly every agi carry and half of strength carries want to build makes him a melee creep.

>all relevant pros and casters who stream at TI
>other relevant pros travelling
>TI isn't on

>shit hero, doesn't do what he is picked to do very well.
Raindrops also fucked the hero.

Bing's predictions for TI7
reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/6s17i8/bing_predicts_the_international_2017/

pic is their predictions for Kiev, so basically ignore most of their stuff

PATHETIC SAME FAG

STOP PUTTING ME IN GAMES WHERE THE AVERAGE MMR IS 500-1000 BELOW MINE

how to save wraith king
>remove mana cost from ult

>OG beating peruvian

Fake lul

stop queuing at times where there aren't enough people of your mmr online
what mmr are you?

>tfw OG fan
>mfw they get knocked out by the Peruvians by a cheese last pick

*blocks your path*

burning can play wk
bane with mirana combo
tiny mid
spectre never, you can't throw the laning phase and expect to win late in this meta

5.4k
and as I type this it just happened again
fuck me

the thing i hate most about day9 hosting is that he is acting like its an honor for dota to have him and not the other way around, it really irks me that valve helped put him on this pedastal, he even implied he wont do any more dota events because he wont be paid enough, im glad he wont do any more dota events, but it should be because he is a cringey narcissistic fat fuck who d doesn't care about or know about the pro dota scene.
>the nahaz-sheever incident
we don't talk about it here because owen reads this thread.

user we can hope together. They work best with their backs up against the wall. They won Frankfurt from the lower bracket, they can do it here. Also, both majors this year were single elim so this is basically The Seattle Major.

>OG
>not getting DESPACITO'd
When will this meme die?

Is bing used predominantly by pinoys? The top two teams are literally determined by amount of pinoys (TNC is a pinoy team and DC has abed)

I wanna plug her butt
Also, is it Liquid IG first or EG Newbee first up?

Liquid IG with LD Lumi casting

>he's still not buying bloodstone on bloodseeker in current year

I think OG is smart enough to not get cheesed out by a huskar or some shit. What I'm more worried about is a cohesive pocket strat involving multiple heroes (like some deathball shit)

Fuck
>I forgot pic

Liquid > iG
Newbee > EG
Secret > Execration
Cloud 9 > Empire
Peru > OG
iG.V > DC

>LD Lumi casting
Great. Now I can learn russian while watching dota.
LD is truly our greatest caster.

nth for Sylph

There is something wrong on this picture, can you find out what?

Slacks is playing with the ruskies

Theres a guy(miracle- looks like) holding his dick?

Go back to sleep LD

its one of his talents, too bad he doesnt get it before he loses the game.

Are you autistic? He was clearly being sarcastic.

Bane?

The spic janitor in the upper left fell asleep on the job

Read his first sentence dumbo.

so what went wrong?

screencap this post. Infamous will knock out OG first round.

watch them give benjaz anti-mage lol
also timado may or may not pull out the mid bane.

Slacks is playing Mafia with the Russians despite not understanding a word of Russian.

Hothead.

...

>Sheever's complaint and allegations

???

aye

Can anyone explain to me the dota "cheese".
>hero is strong/not counterpicked
>hidden strat revealed and other team was not ready for it
>this is somehow dishonorable for the "cheesing" team
>huskar is still considered a cheese after existing for almost a decade
Legitimately confused.

>Damage: Magical

>raindrops
>against BANE!!

>ultimate is bad shackles, only time is possibly useful is when enemy buys a Bkb
>doesnt scale at all, the aghs is garbage until level 25 (by then you lost cause mid bane lmao)

yes

>only 4 heroes unpicked
Icefrog is a fucking god.

yeah you delete that comment retard

I'm talking about Tiny you dunce

>4 right clickers on my team
>better pick Bane!

I'm actually surprised that Sh1t hasn't drafted Bane thus far

im sorry

im not but why bane is bad with a right clicker team?

aghs and level 25 talent give bane a 500 dmg PURE nuke on a 1.5 second cd

Hey and /d2g/ulagites going to Seattle this year?

Nigga OG are the kings of cheese strats. I can easily imagine them picking at least 2 illusion cores + SD + kotl for lane control, stall the game for 2 hours and make the peruvians want to kill themselves.

supporting in LP?

You are forgiven.

>building a soul ring on bane
>and an aether lens

>envy literally can't take a fucking picture

HOW IS THIS AN ACTUAL HUMAN BEING?

Retard = btfo

buy octarine as well and fulfill your destiny.

his best disable is a sleep that is transferred from it's target to anyone who right clicks them, enemy or ally. so basically you either have to have godlike cancels, trust your teammates implicitly to wait around (giving the enemy time to arrive) or just be useless outside a small nuke until 6 and then only once every 2 minutes

Analyst desk for tomorrow, liquid vs iG is casted by ourjew and lumi

He's just so shook he got them, he was posting all day looking for them.
he is mr krabs meme but with keyboard

Anime ruined photographing skill

>this is somehow dishonorable for the "cheesing" team
says who?

That Bane wasn't mid.

merline should just grow a beard, he still looks like a kid

People call rarely used strats which tend to win "cheese" because it BTFO's their team and they're salty as heck.

disgusting pig I can smell his bo through my computer screen

I am going for the finals

It's not dishonorable, but "cheese" is easier to type than "pocket strat". Also, for fans of some teams, its a pocket strat when they're favorite/the better team does it and its cheese when someone does it against them/the worse team does it
