>Latest patch: store.steampowered.com/news/31846/

oops, I fucked up. Latest patch is 7.06 blah blah blah November 1st.

nth for butt plugged redheads

Which dota hero(es) are most likely to engage in tribadism?

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.

Pugna and Ilexa

>4 spots
uhh, dotards?

no wait, I'm double stupid. That was actually the correct link. I thought that link was le epic "Ogre Magi introduced to captain's mode" meme.

EU's got to win a tournament somehow.

>NA gets one spot

Its Dreamhack nothing special in terms of invites

>one slot wasted for SA
>8 teams

Nice fucking major dotards

EU and SEA are the only regions winning any tournaments as is.

guess which team had 4 (four) smurfs and which had only 1
this is very high skill unranked, im guessing around 4k
i randomed OD as second pick
valve should really do something about this fucking smurf problem

Your picks are shit retard, stop complaining about fucking smurfs

/int/ is literally good/d2g/

You did play support OD I hope.

>still 6 1/2 hours till Meltys is released
What the fuck do I do till then dotards?

how am i supposed to play windranger mid i don't get this hero
>shit as fuck bat but you don't get treads on her
>farms slow as fuck
>int hero who builds right click damage

Would you play Dota with your gf?

>farms slow a shit
You do know you have a spamable nuke?
>shit bat
Have you read your ult?
she's shit anyway

>windranger mid
are you trying to lose on purpsoe or what

the nuke is kinda shitty, even with the +damage talent i cant kill a basic creep camp with it. it's spammable but still farm slow as fuck
>wr ult
i feel like i should save it but the cooldown is actually kinda short. still, it doesn't speed the farm up that much.
feels like the hero is good for splitting towers down or maybe ganking and thats about it

i picked it as a counter against viper mid. it was also good against the rest of their team: jugg, wd, lina, slardar

>counter to viper
that's where you're wrong buddy

>how am i supposed to play windranger mid i don't get this hero
>>shit as fuck bat but you don't get treads on her
Um, she is one of 7 heroes in the game who has a BAT better than 1.7.

Perhaps you were referring to her Attack Point, which is 0.4, which is basically just barely on the good side of average. Either way, I don't know what you're complaining about.

Anyway, Phase Maelstrom Orchid with some Blink+Aghs thrown in there.

whats the build for wr mid? maelstrom first item? pike? into aghs daed?
its not a good lane counter, but you can survive in lane against him easily and then just come back into it later.

>counter against viper mid
>here let me pick this no hp-no armor rightclicker against a tanky autoattack machine that applies dot every time you attack him.
just pick pugna or something if you want to click towers AND play mid.

You pick Enchantress mid as a counter to viper buddy

>i picked it as a counter against viper mid
Oh, dear god, I hope you are trolling. If not, you'll have to explain your logic.

I usually go with the Phase Maelstrom Orchid with some Blink+Aghs thrown in there. And upgrade to Mjollnir and/or Bloodthorn of course.

is it normal to calibrate at 600 mmr? I lost 7/10 games.

what do i do with viper after i win my lane and don't end up as useless fuck for the rest of the game? What should i build on him to help my team.

ye

Don't pick Viper.

so which hero do i pick to win the mid lane?

Depends on the lane match up, obviously.

>A hero who wins lane but can't farm and has trouble late game.

You buy midas, that's what. You win you rlane so hard that you have midas by the time the other guy has boots, and then you might actually have enough items to be relevant later on.

yeah bad picks is EXACTLY the fucking problem smartass
smurfs only pick cores and rather throw the game than pick support
literal 100 mmr picks if multiple smurfs in team

Since you can't flash farm lanes/camps, you need to farm heroes. Ending the game early would also be really good.

If I'm a complete moba noob, should I be just playing bot matches for a while or keep queueing and mute the russians on my team?
I played 3 games and it was obvious that I just don't know what and when I should be doing

What are the hero that win there lane and stay relevant in the late game, should i just pick nerco and throw my dignity into a trash can ?

play ranked.
Stop being a fucking pussy.

Viper is just about the only hero that doesn't have any hard lane counters, but he makes up for that by being dogshit after the laning stage. Every hero can be good or bad, you just need to know when to pick them. I guess you could say there are a handful of "lane dominator" heroes (Puck, TA, QoP..) that do well in most match ups, but even they have counters.

And always instalock hard carry I assume?

Anyone got any last suggestions for the title of a furry Dota comic? This evening (i.e. 12+ hours from now) I'm going to send in the note and that will be it.

Pairings to be featured are as follows:
>Elder Titan/Earthshaker
>Bounty Hunter/Riki
>Jakiro/Outworld Devourer
>Tidehunter/Slark
>Phoenix/Winter Wyvern

Working title is currently "Battlefurry" Which was one of the responses I got last time but I have a feeling /d2g/ has some good ones in reserve.

Come on gulag, don't let me down. If your name is a hot meme it will be on the cover of a comic some chump spent close to $10k on, forever.

Fuck ricing.
Play mid.

My suggestion is that you don't post that shit here.

play dota > create lobby > edit the options to fill the slots with bots

That way you can get used to the game without having to commit anything. You can quit anytime too.

>t. furfag

"I have such a shit taste that I unironically paid for this"

also
>Melon/slark
>not melon/kunkka

>Posting a pornographic comic on a blue board
Wow user, thanks for the suggestion.

I'm also talking about what you're posting now. Also please kill yourself.

I'm not refuting the fact that this comic is an idiotic waste of money. I'm doing it anyways though.

That was the title of the comic you cock-addled yiff addict.

>Commissions for comic
>makes it furry
>asks her to suggest about the title and not the content
?

Viper happens to counter TA quite well

I was going to ask for content suggestions once the cover page was done. Guess that was my mistake.

Kind of. What's your point?

Nothing, just agreeing with you and giving an example that even "lave dominators" can be countered

he burn her reflections really fast than just straight up kill you

That sounds cool, thanks
Any good bot AIs to choose? Default ones seem kinda retarded

Alch is beyond dogshit
Sven useless without either supps or space
Sniper vs PA SF MK

>play a soul numbing, boring hero and win
>play a fun hero and lose
whats the right answer

Who can unironically stop Team Liquid?

Team Liquid is the only one that can stop Team Liquid.

ramadan

*blocks your major*

He did it before, and he's ready to do it again.

Battlefurry is actually great.
Go ahead user. I want some paws in my gulag

There's some decent custom AI you can subscribe from the Workshop, such as PubSimulator or Improved Default AI

>first picks drow
>buys sblade against bloodseeker
kill me

Can anyone explain this? What's that white stuff covering her face, is that just yoghurt? I don't understand.

It's just some clarity all over her face, you perv

>team is behind me as we push
>opponents come in, use all their shit on me and i'm still living
>my team has run away instead of initiating on a team that has nothing
WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN EVERY TIME

She tripped and thats her saliva after passing out

fuck phantom lancer.

How much is she salivating for it to end up in her hair?

I know your feel user.
The potato bracket will end us all

The secret to getting out of potato bracket is to spam sleeper-op shit. Stuff the pros pick but bot on the first phase. Right now the mmr hero is utility mk. Shit is broken in lower mmr

BeanBoys featuring /ourguy/ SingSing

I still don't get it, how can they all be THAT clumsy?

care to explain how this guy is in very high skill?
complaining about his team too
calibration is fucking broken

>tfw my current smurf got the same winrate
>but normal skill
spitonme.part001.rar

boosted account?

>Watching credits
>Some of the joke cards actually have really cool effects

Clearly not enough matches.
Surely some1 spend 5 or 10 games in vhs with high hidden mmr and then give this account

...

>playing blizz games in 2k17
What is wrong with you user?

...

Oh fuck I thought I was posting in /hsg/

guy has 30+ kills in first few games so clearly he is at least 4k )))
this is very typical 3k player "smurfing" in 4k games

>no draw 2 cards for FREE
all trash

>7ks respect banned my meme hero in a school tournament

Does that mean I am good?

Nothing can stop you when you have Allah on your side. Inshallah allahu Ackbar.

is your meme hero necro/brood/pit by any chance?

depends, did you win?

Are the cutest!

It's Arc Warden. It was bo1 groups and I won one game with it.

CM is for bullying
