i LOVE luna!

is Crystal "Maiden" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land? this "Maiden" doesnt look like a maiden to me , hell Lina the Slayer is more of a maiden compared to this slut.

He doesnt caps AS with only his skills though

why is cancel higher mmr than me?

>wearing casual clothes
>keeps the helmet on

?

>entire team afk mid for some reason
>try and go anywhere else on the map
>instantly sb charged and dueled and dp ulted
>every single time i respawn
how do you win? what can you do when your team is just standing mid and wont farmor push or do anyhting?

feed me dotards

>store.steampowered.com/news/22385/
You autistic son of a bitch

Where's the patch?

from upland druud

i ride

be sneakier. if they spend so much time looking for you and they don't find you, they will fall behind in farm and levels.

oops. That's what I get for pasting the previous OP without checking it.

You only farm the lanes when you see sb or other catch heroes in mid then disappear into jungle when they go offmap.
This is positioning101 really.

fuck off

>all her abilities get two charges
>8 seconds stun on 2 heroes
>WRaghs is now GoodODaghs

how are you this lazy

That would actually be hilarious

>situations in which both secret shops are destroyed and items like abyssal, scythe, bfly, cannot be built any more

post more luna
also, recomedn pro talent to learn from, i want to spam luna nonstop for calibrate purpuses

But OD aghs is already good

what if Power Shot could proc the on-hit effects of her items?

>upon being attacked, the shopkeeper becomes hostile, equiped with items that can be completed in the secret shop such as Heart, Octarine and Rapier, and gets Gambler's abilities

isnt it badsongofthesiren?

she is already badPA

>being killed by a hostile shopkeeper causes you to lose 6k gold, if a player does not have that much gold he goes into debt with a 25% interest rate

You can use imprisonment to protect allies against magic immune opponents or to keep enemies without BKB/Linkens out of the fight for up to 8s while killing the rest of their team

is it that bad to calibrate with luna?

why would it be?

it is good to win with whatever hero you're good with

>finish rosh in under 20 seconds
umm dotards?

calibration doesn't mean shit

its only purpose is to ease you in to ranked.

p-patch...

dumb frogposter

dotabuff shows 40 lucent beam talent having higher wr, but pros go for health, as well as 15 damage beeing picked much more frequently, but losing to +ms

they also get two levels in blessing before glaive, but pubs go 3-1-1-1

gifdiretide

Talent picking stats are universal, you can't see choices per MMR bracket on dotabuff which definitely would show a large disparity.

hold me back

just a reminder that ta is the best bondage slave

Reminder that people who have self respect dont play supports. Say no to Lina and CM

delete this

it honestly doesn't matter which hero you use to calibrate since they capped the MMR you can calibrate at like 3.5k,

don't get the 40 dmg lucent beam talent, it's pretty much useless unless you plan on going aghs. i honestly think the ms talent is better on her since you usually get mom/manta + she already has high base MS, so you run around pretty fast with it.

they get two levels in blessing and don't skill glaive because it pushes the lane, and you shouldn't do it unless you have a free lane or you're just abandoning the lane to farm jungle

lol corecuck is mad

who the fuck drafts a team like that? bane core? is io the mid? DELETE URSELF AND UR SHIT ART

this art makes me feel warm inside

is there anything more like it

Yeah

lina is not a support

>TA and QoP will never be your sex slaves
give me one good reason to continue living.

Truth hurts
Whatever makes you sleep at night user, there are only hardcarries and cucks in this game. Pick one

VR is almost there (笑)

CM will get the patch notes for us dotards!

>send double to lane to rat
>get double kill by accident
>everyone thinks I'm a micro god

arc is new favorite hero

It's here already.
There's so many JAVs right now in VR I want but don't have the phone/computer to watch them on

you should've played him before the obscene number of nerfs, magnetic field used to be 100% evasion from all attacks even if they're in the dome with you, spark wraiths used to do way more damage and also purge, tempest double used to duplicate rapiers but not drop them, tempest double item cooldowns (midas, necronomicon, etc) would be refreshed every re-summon, etc etc

Why can't I tab through the units in a control group I swear that used to work even with 2 of the same kind.

Also some units have some weird properties like tusk sigil I use to be able to select it after spawning it with the 'select spawned units' or whatever keybind but not anymore, one other thing too but i forgot

>send double to lane to rat
>enemy core comes to lane because lmao it's only a double xd
>kill them
>?
The best part is that no one knows how to play against him because no one ever plays him except true insiders

patch?

will today be the day? will icefregg release us from our torment?

What's the fastest way to lvl 1 rosh?

truely this general must be 1k now.

i really dont see this work that often in pubs
am even didn't panic and tried to cut waves and shit but they still lost

>VP eat at cheesecake factory whenever they win a big game
is this the key to success?

>new level 15 talent for Ogre Magi
>both fireblast cooldowns reduced to 3.6485 seconds
What the fug

they have cheesecake factory in slavistan?

im not sure, but they also mention a restaurant thats only in seattle, so it could be just when they win in the US

>buy bkb
>use first time
>bkb lasts longer than catalonian independence

i only pick 4 heroes, grinded 4k4 so far with this strategy

patch won't come till november but by then it will be too late
Destiny 2 will be out and the entire playerbase of dotardo will be gone

4th is necrophos btw
i dont have item on him so he's not listed but i pick him a lot

how dead will dota be after this patch? i predict 450k average concurrent and 700k peak, after the initial bump of 3-6 weeks who will come back, play a bit and realize the game will still have all the same flaws that drove them away

>sf ta centaur
i smell pinoy

what the fuck is this?

lel

the spanglish and autistic set fetishizing didn't tip you off?

What's the fastest way to lvl 1 rosh?

nice try but not a meta hero or a topic the in crowd will discuss

That one time that Furion stole the pregame last hit and instantly went to level 6 or some shit.

tfw the patch is just the new hero release and -1 str on necro

I fixed wr guys:
>No damage penalty when focus fire
>cooldown from 60s to 35s
>agility gain from 1.4 to 1.8
Aghs:
>FF has 3 charges each one with a separate cooldown of 20s
Not need to thanks frog

>youtube.com/watch?v=wQdnIiz1iwg
Perhaps not the fastest but this is one of my favorite pro games ever.

What difference does the agi gain make if she has FF?

Don't say >muh armor.

idk why people complain so much about the toxic dota community, its just like any othe free online game community.

>Don't say >muh armor.
in that case there is nothing to say user

muh armor
and muh ult isn't always up

>Using an illusion to tank Roshan
How have I not thought of this before

That's where the mosaic comes in friendo

i need help

i like playing core but i'm not that good of a core player. everytime i spam hc/mid i drop down to 4.5k, but i always climb to 5k again by playing support. should i just play support for the rest of my life even though i don't enjoy it that much or should i git gud at core?

Git gud at core and play that

because youre 2k

yeah I hate it whenever I see the naga cosplay build from a alch

What have you been playing to fill the dota-shaped hole in your soul? For me it's Fractured Space

practicing ALTTP speedrunning

what the fuck? roshan purges illusions instantly

not sure if fishing for (you)s but only if you attack it, you can move your illusion to roshan just like you do to make it follow a target and they wont die

>inb4 this obvious piece of bait gets 10's of replies
