Gyrocopter!

Does skele king have a chance to one hit kill rosh with his new skill?

Literally got hard countered by Hex.

What's so wrong with Soul Ring now?
More health regen to use on your sacrifice mana.

>reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/79skmv/prime_coming/

uuhhh dotards? Genuinely expecting another major client update between now and either the end of the year, or February

Nothing personal, dotards.

nice

>it can proc stuff like skadi

and another

CARRY BANE HERE WE GO BOYS

pretty sure the dot doesn't stack
and before someone posts it in this thread:
REARM DOES NOT WORK ON IT YOU DUMB KEKS

Is it official now, are we /leagueoflegends/ now?
Fucking icefroggo

So how viable is hitter Axe?

...

>adding complexity
>makes game like league
nay

Even if it did I very much doubt the enemy team would just wait for yours 3 seconds so they can cast their hammers.
It's all just /d2g/ retard-theorycrafting.

Yes, we are. Reddit will unironically defend this.

wait dota has free TPs now?

I might even consider playing this toxic game when I get tired of maining tristana

glad to see you guys are finally starting to copy the superior game

>3 seconds channel
>Shared cooldown like every item that has ever existed

>12 second grip

This is so fucking dumb but at the same time you will never be able to grip someone that long. At the same time.
>2580 damage fiend's grip

I want to pull this off somehow.

*loses a pub*

this is literally what the game has needed for years, it's a simple ranked system that's used in dozens of other multiplayer games

Can you queue on the test client or is it for solo testing only?

>Murdering Doom when he was barely 50% winrate, and only in 5k+

based valve adding another filter for thirdies

you get free tp as starting item, rest of them cost usual 50 gold
we have easy mode now though

only one free tp scroll at the start

Crystal Maiden Aura on Allies rescaled from 1/1.5/2/3 to 0.8/1.0/1.2/1.4
>Crystal Maiden Aura on Self rescaled from 2/3/4/8 to 1/2/3/4

>wraith king
>summons not wraiths but skeletons
How is this okay?

Is Valve racist?

Why did they nerf silencer?

Donte really does feel like a LoL hero but I don't really mind. The turn rate on his ult is obnoxious though, and if you hit a wall you're fucked and get stuck

Fae is your typical dotard hero though and she seems broken with all her aoe and she has some thicc thighs and fat ass

THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE LOLBAB, WHAT'S THE

B E S T

XAYAH BUILD? QUICKLY I'M IN A GAME RIGHT NOW

Why are people skipping wand on brew?

Why would you grip somebody when you can be doing like 700dps while getting huge pure heals whenever you need?
the fiend grip is for supportcucks if they ever get to 25

dota is already as easy as it gets
i play it when i get tired of taxing league games to take the edge off

they did that to balance with the agi giving movespeed now

valve didn't want to bother with modeling a new unit when icefrog is just gonna remove the skill in 7.08

> stats
> skills
> items
> talents
> perks
What next, prestige classes?

second grip

bane's a legit serial gropist right now, where's red we could use some art for that

OH NO NO NO NO HUUUUAAAAHHHH..........HAHAHAH

>Courier can no longer be purchased more than once.
This kills the russian

CM picker scum.

>remove gold talent @ lvl 10
>creeps don't spawn until 1 minute
>Scorched Earth DPS dumpstered because it's tied to the regen which got a new formula
why

>add inverse kinematics to make spoopy spoider
>don't use it to make WR strafe correctly instead of moonwalking
>Tiny has no animations for picking a Tree and throwing it

Taxing what, you farm for 40minutes group up and then win or lose the game
kek

what's up, fellow white people

you are replying to b8 user

WE DON'T DESERVE THE FROG

>incoming WR remodel where she gets big tits and strafe animation

THE ULTIMATE STAND USER

When Ice Frog stops randomly changing all talents every fucking patch?!

>wr
>big tits
fuck off scum

maybe in bronze kiddo and even so its better than dota

>lol look at all these kills that mean absolutely nothing
>after laning we 5 man for 20 minutes until someone fucks up
>victory!
no wonder your game is dead compared to lol viewership

>es and puck ults now have no initial damage
y tho

Whats the point of getting excited for the patch when I'm going to be matched with the same game ruining trash anyway.

you should get the option to choose between flat and mommy size before a match starts

hire me icefrog

literally lost a game to this combo

io will get emergency fix

>>after laning we 5 man for 20 minutes until someone fucks up

you're literally describing lol right now, like that is actually how high level lol is played

something tells me this is the bait of someone who hasn't actually played lol before

cause now you have a new matchmaking system to blame instead.

>tfw no non-binary gender fluid hero
can someone tell valve it's 2017 already?

The fun ends here, lads

what is morph

>For DPS debuffs with slows, it instead just reduces the slow values, leaving the damage amount unaffected
so it just lets you move faster than you would before when hit by veno gale or dual breath?

just make it a level 0 talent

you're actually describing dota i mean look at your "internayshunl" finals lmao it was a 3-0 shitshow with same picks and same strats

awful game hope this patch brings you a little closer to they glory that is a good strategy based game like league of legends

IO
Puck
Enigma
AA

>echo

uh, dotards???

Is anyone sick of Icefrog's bullshit?

Coming from LoL, Overwatch and Gwent I've come to appreciate methodical ways of balancing the game by tuning small numbers patch by patch. But this Icefrog guy and his ego demands that he flips everything around and hopes that it sticks. At the rate that he deliver patches (like this 6 months cycle), the game can never be balanced.

>+10 MS or Bottle auto-refills

Is battlefury ember back now after the magic damage talent got dumpstered?

...

>can only talk about dota, doesn't know anything about lol

you could make it bit less obvious if you used a game you actually play

do you feel the farm rising?

HOW THE FUCK WAS WYVERN NOT BUFFED HOLY SHIT

*outfarms you*

Good question, why do you shadow pool crybabies even play the game? It must fucking suck.

WITH NO SURVIVORS

so how good are morph and void pos 1 at this patch?

I don't know why you're trying to gender beings without genitalia

>has no flash farm ability
>squishy as shit
no

uh
SIR?

If icefrog isn't a genious,why Bane became first pick material.
Check mate devlets

*steals all your damage and kills you while you're asleep*

shut up lolbaby
