HYUK

What are the roster lock dates?

...

Tell me lads, why don't you make your own team?

Team Liquid is Destiny.

Water themed TI. An almost textbook path from the longest possible losers bracket run.

Amazing games.

Liquid has saved Dota from China. Bless them for all time.

>14 majors a year
Are you ready for endless esports?

I'm a shitty 4.2k pleb. If/when I ever get to 7k I will user

I haven't played this game in 3 months, but I'm still last hitting and having big teamfights in my head, will it ever go away?

Every possible ""teamate"" would hold me back.

Shit at the game and too autistic to interact with people

Capybara hero when?

ok rtz

this ti was a bit of weak but i like it

I want to eat Doom's massive donut!

>Navi = A rotten corpse
>Alliance = Disbanded
>EG = Shartour'd
>Wings = Imploded
>iG/Newbee = Became useless and renewed the squad to avoid the curse

What's the future for Liquid?

I don't think solo queue shows your true potential in a well defined group setting.
It's most important to practice interaction now.

First squad of 5 people to win back to back TIs.

>Unbox a Vigil Triumph
>It's selling on the market for ~$60

Should I sell it or keep it?

No.

back to back TetrIs?

Yeah PPD is a great player, is clearly insanely intelligent and won a TI.

But he is also pure and undiluted cancer.

Sometimes it's not salt, sometimes it's actual hateful shit. I'm calling it now, PPD is ruinous to the community and it's for the betterment of everyone to oust him.

>wake up
>no patch

sell

i had an original TI2 boxhound and sat on it, it dropped in value a lot over the years

>PPD in the scene
>EG is feared and respected
>NA is an actual region
>now

>Pugna buffs
>TA buffs
>WW buffs
I'm looking forward to 7.07

why doesn't Sheever or Kaci wear clothes like that? I've always thought all those TIs are missing something and now I think I know what it was

ppd is /ourguy/

When will the collective NA hivemind realize that rtoozy is a fraud?

There's not a SINGLE player that had more accomplishments with rtz rather than wirhout him

Despite being from NA, I still say it's best if he's fucking gone.

He is a true spiteful and hateful little faggot.

Don't be blinded by his skill. That's exactly how his type proliferate.

where's her you-know-what

TA IS FEMALE AND DOES NOT HAVE A DICK

>no "welcome to the international"
>no congratulations, nothing
>chooses to appear in some dumbass skit instead
the voice of reason in me says that he's just busy with VR garbage or something, but what if he's actually ashamed

hopefully never, everyone will blame cr1t and PPD will kick him while keeping RTZ since he sells a lot of shirts and attracts advertisers/investors

ywn be craig and get to do threesomes with lauren and tara

well yeah she has a feminine penis

in my mouth

List of Heroes nerfed next patch

>tfw played some battlecucks in team with 5k mid and rest 4k average (some guy 3200 some guys 4500)
>tfw this 5k fucktard had 0 fucking idea about basic stuff and all he coud was one trick with his mid heroes
>offlane 3.5k mmr was playing like a god with shaker/sand king offlane
>my support partner who was 4 had 0 fucking idea about proper roaming and what to buy as a fucking ~4.2

Its true solo mmr doesnt mean shit but if u want to find a team, some legit shit with scrims and playing small amateur tournaments, people first look at mmr.

im sure this 3.5k offlane guy should be 6k and basically get pocket money with tournament by how he trashed on people but he will be stuck in 3k forever, makes me depressed

yes Sheever has nice legs and feet but if she doesn't wear heels and skirt to show them off then what's the point of inviting her at all? we need more hot chicks at dota events

Your voice is broken, mine says hes dying of pancreatic cancer.

post yfw kuro was crying cause he won the dotab owl

Welp, finally done

How'd I do?

(yes its shit quality I have little knowledge of webm creation)

Here's my plan for 2018

>wait for TI qualifiers
>get a list of all qualified teams
>cross out all non chinese teams
>cross out all teams with previous TI winners
>put all my money on whatever team is left

Time to get rich.

do you guys think EG would stand a chance against Wings in ti6 GF?

He's obese and he's getting old. Wouldn't be surprised if he has some problems with walking.

No he realized the curse is upon him now
He's forever haunted by honeypots

i'd rather have mediocre looking girls if that meant they were good at casting or analysis

She's only hot if you're 13

Also in gif format

I remember back when he was in Navi, still just as quiet. I was so happy this came to him finally. To watch it go to all his old team members from the days when they were young--what could be more meaningful ; - ;

Just found some sick lewds of Sylph

get yourself a guy the way miracle looks at kuroky

SeemsGood
What software did you use?

...

>won the biggest honeypot
>saved us from chink domination
>loved by everybody
>follows the rules of his religion
based kuro

>implying gabe does any actual work at valve anymore
he probs just sits in his office and fucks a pinkie pie colored onahole

nice la

>But he is also pure and undiluted cancer.

I want ppd to return as a player for TI8 so fucking bad

how the fuck do i play Mirana? Roaming or offlane? what items?

Keep it. You wil be able to get more for it whenever his next Immortal drops. Lina's armour sold for like 30$ now it is around 80.

He's washed up

gifcam and ffmpeg

>be lucky
>retire before anyone realizes you're a fraud

I also want him to come back.

Is Kuroky actually a legitimate muslim?
I thought he was just dark skinned.

He was originally going to come out to congratulate the winning team at the end, but he got upset after everyone made fun of Artifact and went home.

...

>ffmpeg for conversions
thats right mah nig

PPD is a great drafter. With xiao8 gone, there's only ppy who can draft at this level (reminder that ppy managed to short circuit kuro, having a much worse team).

Also, ppd vs ppy was a thing to behold, before rtoozy went ahead and ruined it.

What were the cosplay rules this year for the cosplay tournament?

>no 5 guy cosplaying meepo
>no 2 guy cosplaying ogre magi
>no 3 guy cosplaying techies

8 weeks to the first minor
Then a week after that there's another minor
Then a week after that there's the first major

Do we have any info on these tournaments?

I wish Dendi could reunite again with Puppey in team Secret.

I know it's nearly impossible...

There are a lot of mid player in the scene right now.

But if you ask for mid player who can play as space maker and the best at this moment,
Who else can be relied upon if not Dendi?

Secret.Arteezy + Secret.Dendi
OR
Secret.EternaLEnVy + Secret.Dendi

P.S. Dendi could speak English really well too
P.S.S. No offense to Na'Vi fans

>follows the rules of his religion
is he really muslim?

Fuck off you don't luck your way into top 3 at TI three years in a row

sick that eg pic was me

Memes aside, he's the only one on the team who has anything to do with islam. He's not a hardcore mudslime though, just follows some of the dogmas related to food/drinks and spirituality

1. Costumes must represent a DOTA 2 character.


2. The Contest focuses on craftsmanship and only costumes that are handcrafted or mostly (i.e. 80%) handcrafted will be eligible to participate. Store purchased accessories and components are allowed insofar as they represent 20% or less of the finished look.

9. Contestants without tickets to The International will be granted access to the prejudging and winner selection events for purposes of participating in the Contest.

Did anyone else think it was weird how they basically rushed Liquid out the door after they won?

They got about 5 minutes backstage to awkwardly attempt to open some champagne, and then the rest of the broadcast was following them out to the parking lot. What the fuck was that about? I mean, I get that they're awkward, anti-social, and had trouble even fielding the softball questions that Kaci lobbed at them, but you'd think that the champions of the event would be given some time to enjoy the spotlight. What was the rush?

Navi lucked 3 finals in a row.

It's definitively possible and looking at history, happens more or less frequently.

Thanks
I've been using gifcam for ages to create shit like that but never bothered looking into how to make webms

well they're both washed up so who knows it could happen

I thought Miracle was also a muslim?

Seltzer is a slut.

>Supports
>Nerfs.

Both, phase Aquila point booster aghs manta diff euls maybe, pretty varied, mjol even

The time that they were waiting for the winners bus was awkward as fug.

>muslim
>tattoos

>Polish mother
>muslim
Really doubt that. He's probably atheist anyway.

Of course, a muslim who plays a videogame 15 hours a day while listening to the most haram music imaginable. A muslim who has a fucking tattoo on his hand, who drinks and parties.
He's also way too autistic to care about any of that garbage anyway

welp, better than the original

To be fair the last thing you want in that moment is fucking champagne.

No, he drinks alcohol.

What pro has the lowest amount of dota hours played?

who is getting kicked and where are they going?

The one and only move ppy has to do now is to ditch MP for Resolution.

1. Reso
2. Midone
3. Kezhu
4. YApzor
5. Ppy

Is a TI winning team right there.

poor gh got lassoed by the camera crew

Basically no reason to not have a 5 man meepo or a two man ogre

Bulba

going to EG to replace cr1t

pgl production

You don't have to be a good drafter if every hero is good on your team because you're team is liquid and isn't pure NA cancer
