Dota 2 General - /d2g/

How do we let go of our dead game?

optic is too white, it's 2017.

diversity when?

>support = utility

t. 2k that instalocks dazzle when he has to be wardcuck and complains in all chat when he has no impact

you hate supporting because you have no critical thinking skills

>be playing CM
>cute CM thread

thanks OP

Lanaya woke up my inner trap fetish.

what is an inner foot?

based koreans

>that teamfight
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD KICK BULBA

>NA strongest team is korean

Wat

uh oh

>Tfw 1k+ hours of support and not even that good at it7

Since QO was garbage last season people are not expecting him to be so good now.

>that coil
man faker should really stick to league

feed me dotards

i've climbed from 2k to 4.7k but i have stagnated.
or i say stagnated, but i feel it's more that i don't have as much impact as a 5 pos than i'd like and used to have.
part of the problem is me ooga team booga, to elaborate i see a lot of the time people don't recognize the responsability of their roles and pick stupid fights, doubt themselves when people tell them to back out of a risky push or when the incoming enemy pain train is spotted from halfway across the map by wards, ultimately throwing the game by not farming etc. i don't blame them because i fuck up myself many times, but are there any cookie cutter ways to combat this? are there any reliable, safe, impactful support heroes i pick or do i attempt to adopt another role?

i've been playing jakiro for the most part because of his versatility when it comes to lane harass+kill potential, pushing power, team fight abilities and waveclear. other than that i've played some shadow shaman, dazzle, warlock and occasion lich and winter wyvern (if it makes sense).

i just feel i'm not much more than a wardbot and i have no individual control over the game.

I'd fuck febby

...

why do boosters don't use chat or any type of communication at all?
are they robots or they care about behavior score that much?

you gain more mmr that way. communication is the root of all losses

can confirm.
i once got matched with a booster broodmother in 3k once
the game ended without any words at all lmao

lamo I'm so much better than these 3k scrubs I don't even talk to them it's beneath me
easiest way to win games is zero communication after all

profile sir?

allchat gets boring after the first dozen times and theres no reason to communicate with the retards on your team

they dont talk

This. I have gotten butthurt to the extreme so many times due to team mates not listening. There's just no point anymore. Ping and say 'stun now' or some shit but other than that don't bother. They're all fucking brain dead.

If you come across someone that isn't, add them.

>blocks name
>not rampages

whats with this meme

when will bulba join OpTic?

This, some people listen more than others, and it also depends on how tilted a player is. The main thing I'd say is don't try to play for your team, just relay the info you pick up as needed and see if they do anything with it. That's the only part of comms you have control over

>Retard on my team bitches so much about someone else playing invoker that he abandons

The best are the niggers without any clue and you try to explain to them how they died but they absoleutely insist it was your fault

Just bought coaching with CCnC, trips determines what questions I ask him

ask why he's 3k

The problem is that so much stress is eqyally caused from miscommunication.
A lot of the time you need to communicate to do a decent job as or with a support.

>play Invoker
>perfect apm skills
>lose because he's not the fotm hero and Lich is

to follow on with this retard logic, both china and india deserve twice as many TI invites as NA because they have so many more people
why is there no india invite for TI you racists ?

>meanwhile Im not even that
I dont want to do ranked, i fucking hate it

i like maining support :^)

Just sit there asking him support questions the entire time

mmr is just a number and unranked games are objectively awful stop being a pussy

>Hey Quinn is Ember supp viable

But my teamates are somehow even worse then I am, and that "number" dictates everything. Dota is stressful enough without worrying over a stat looming over your head every match.

>no za warudo hero
umm dotards?

But thats void

?

ask him how he fights the urge to run down mid

Why do Russians play on US East? Fuck off. I don't want you. I can at least understand Peruvians. Russians aren't even in the right hemisphere. Get out of my server you fucking slag.

>slag
wow rude

They are white niggers.

This is tempting to do just because I too have the urge to run down mid in games where shit's going badly so I feel like asking this if only to learn for myself how to deal with tilt

Please say something nice about Lanaya and her "mysteries."

wtf thats my id

please tell me that picture isn't just an edit of some anime character

>cc&c is actually a really informative caster
huh

>core MK
there are people that still think this is a thing

he accepted me just now wtf so much win

what's wrong with a pos 2-3 mk?
Hes basically riki but trade invis for burst damage and tree leap

>roaming mk
enjoy your -25

>pro player understands pro dota
woah

Post dotabuffs give advice to others

>Who is Bane?

Absolute trash reporting in dotabuff.com/players/171650052

>garbage stat growth
>it's ok though I have my 3 hit passive

How the fuck do I manage to lose every game with this hero
I keep a positive attitude, save teammates, harass their backliners with their carry illusions, keep lanes pushed back when they're pushing high ground, and my teammates generally have a positive opinion on my efforts at the end of the game
HOW

shadow demon is a strict friends-only strat
also complete shit this patch

Just take him mid man

How do we fix naga?
hard mode: don't make illusions broken again

Delete the hero

>how do we fix the hero designed to be the least fun possible
you leave her bottom tier and hope she never gets picked

>optic enters dota
>/d2g/ goes the way of /csgog/
hmmmmm

>3.2 agi growth and 2.8 str growth
>garbage

bring back crit naga

You mean becomes obsessed with betting until Valve bans it because of idiotic kids that play a different, rigged form of gambling and the entire general dies in one move?

more like esportshitters already got burned out form 24/7 betasports

I miss gambling on CSGO with my friends.
Those were some really fun times. It made us all get super hype watching pro games and we'd even play CSGO sometimes.
Now none of us have even touched the game in many months.
Feels bad man.

>reddit in the OP

d

So do I, so do I.

How come there's still no japanese voice patch for DoTA 2?

I mean, even LoL, with all of its shittyness, got a japanese voice, with big names like Sugita and Yuuki Aoi even.

>Wanting degeneracy in your game
Shit taste detected

Literally, and I mean LITERALLY nobody plays Dota in Japan.
That little yearly tournament for clams that happens in Japan that Reddit let you know exists?
You know who plays in that tournament inside of Japan?
Foreigners living in Japan that also happen to play Dota.

That's literally it.

>tfw no sakurai voice

there's nothing worse than a laning mk that shits terrifying and at the same time annoying knida like a viper

one day a drawfag will put timbersaw and loli pugna in this

>wake up
>shrines and talents are still in the game
