First for ME

2nd for TA has a vagina.

I have heard about "farming patterns" but what does this mean and how do I discover good farming patterns? I take it to mean what you're doing to get farm, such as going to lane and killing 1 wave, then going to jungle to kill creeps, then go to ancient stack, then go back to lane, etc, but how do I make my farming pattern more efficient?

Redpill me on EE

is ee for real

where's my obligatory cm vs. lina pasta?

True, she has one of these.

>playing Weaver without boots
I seriously hope non of you fags do this.

>blinding enemies

tbqh it would be nice if some skills interact with the player interface. Like this blind thing just put a black screen on your pc and then it gets really blury. Or shaker echo slam fucks your ears with a really strong sound to your headphones and make your screen to shake.

I don't know what "toxic" means in the gaming community, but seeing EE play the last few SEA pubs I'm pretty sure he's a "toxic" player
Guy seems absolutely unbearable to play with and with his shoddy decision making last game where he threw and still convinced himself that he didn't lose the game by reporting raging potato, he's the eombodiment of everything r/dota2 hates yet they give him exceptions because he's "one of us" and an awkward weeb

FREE HASTE?!

...

LATE Pugna

Post your ideas hopefully we can start narrowing them down a little

>using "i play for fun" as an excuse for picking a shit hero for your team

loli pugna flirting with skeleton monarch

WR COSPLAY TIME

SHOTA SKELETON MONARCH

Reminder that I and 2 gulagites started the loli pugna meme while discussing futa back in october 2012.

...

...

I hope user finishes this

>futa
kys you're self

You realize all Redditors are exactly like that right. They go on and on about how dota is such a toxic community and it's so terrible but don't you remember your most recent game? There was a passive aggressive white nerd using a nasal whine all game. That's a redditor. They don't give him a pass because he likes anime, they give him a pass because attacking EE would be attacking themselves. Every redditor joins a game with the attitude that they are better than everyone else, that they make good calls and everyone else makes shit calls, and then their team is bad and they're good. That's the exact EE mentality.

...

Dayum.

...

I want to lick her boob sweat

How do I get to play "high skill" games?

I know >git gud.

But how the game knows I "git gud"? Is it win rate? or just mmr? Is it possible to have high skill or very high skill in 2k?

...

...

I think we would all like to lick her boob sweat.

high school = 3200-3699 mmr
very high = 3700+

You think there is a real difference in how you should be playing in high skill as opposed to normal or very high? You just play to win thats how

>EE literally just spamming am, tb and pl

>high school

it depends on the average mmr of the game. I think it's something like 3.5k+ = very high, 2k+ = high or something, probably wrong tho

>actually playing the game
gameshitters everyone

>still loses

best girls ^_^

i fucked up

Wat a play

Silencer ult actually stops ingame sound for its duration. I think that by blinding, the poster meant 100% attack miss chance, like kotl Blind Light.

SEA is where Chads play dota

...

>watching meme streamers, being obssessed with eceleb "talents", and treating video games like sports

Nice projection.

i want them both to give me a double bj

i want to suck their dicks

R8 my top winrates d2g

>sea pubs still think EE goes 0440 build on TB
lmao

>puck tilting off the face of the earth after that sunder
I fucking love tb, best edgelord.

>2014
Takes me back when chen was still viable

when?

fuck you for reminding me how old profile page used to look like
it was too comfy

Will never happen.
Chinks can't handle the spoop.

Is BBK good?

Alright, I'm pissed. Give me a pubstomp hero that I can grind mmr with relatively easily

just watch EE and copy his gameplay/picks

ES,NEcro,Lich,BS,SS

necrophos venomancer earthshaker(offlane) visage(mid)

>tfw not Cadence hero
>or any dancer hero for that matter

Zeus, underlord, rahsta

Why did EE buy MoM of madness on TB? Doesn't make any sense.

...

because yes

sounds good, I'll try these out
I said easy

MoM is the new midas. It's actually very good farming/early damage item.

*blocks your path*
EE webms anyone?

i climbed 1k mmr with le based man of three ultimates

Spirit Breaker is free mmr until 5.5k

How about NO Pugna?

>bajillion starting armor + good agi gain means the minus armor doesn't do anything
>turn into machine gun with bajillion damage when MoM is active
>doesn't have any super low cd spells

SB is countered by every meme fotm heroes like ES/Lich.

this is why I don't play terrorblade
it's not easy with lich and es running around, I'll try necro I guess

lets say I dont want to play ranked ever, I just keep playing unranked, if I get to play a "high skill" or "very high skill" in an unranked game, does that mean that my "hidden MMR" is 3700+? and if I calibrate start to calibrate my MMR would i calibrate to something around 3500+?

It's over dotards.
Time to jump ship.

yeah thats how it works

calibration is capped at 3500 now but yeah

I can't leave, I have to be here for the last ever Ti and get the last ever baby aegis from the last ever goypendium, then, then I will be free

should i buy absolver guys?

>wake up
>no patch

Yeah if you get very high games consistently youll get 3500

>Doom + TB
BIG GUYS DOTA

all these dotard hours

p-pls stop

>Ti cucked by starbull
>Twitch cucked by lolbull
>and now cucked out of steam by pubgbulls
we deserve it
we killed half life

Thanks. I guess I'll keep playing unranked for a while.

No room for elder titan?

What kind?

Anyone else going to miss double downs? ;_;

>46541 years of dota played

>ee throwing
wew

This should be a real thing and purchasable constantly

I never lost a double down and managed to beat forced 50 through this

who here /followinggrantsadventureswithcomcast/ ?

>disassemble MoM into butterfly and sell morbid mask
>puts satanic in quick buy
fucking EE

You just don't understand next level play`

camelcash is a moron

We already established that EE is thinking 5 patches ahead of everyone
