help i'm trying to play this game again after reinstalling after 3 years and it's telling me i have to win one low priority game but the matchmaking never finds a game for like 25 mins now

mmr? /id/? Dotabuff?

thanks for the meal dotards

Working as intended.

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.

is "Techies" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land? these "Techies" dont look like techies to me , hell Boush the Tinker is more of a techie compared to these retards.

requesting the techies edit of the 'i fucking hate everyone' meme game with the text parody

i want to kiss both of them at the same time

Here you go.

Twilight is best pony.

why did they gut morph

hero wasnt even good

i can't believe you or anybody actually saved my creation
thank you

how the fuck is he dealing so much damage?

what exactly am I seeing here

based icefrog putting in the counter to status resist in the same patch
this is what genius looks like

need an offlaner that can just sit in the carries lane denying every hit with high base DMG + QB and shrugging off support harassment. just laned mid as visage against a Bloodseeker and it was one of the most painful experiences having this fuck who's hitting creeps for 100+DMG prioritise denies over his last hits just to fuck me

"Dota Turbo has been added to the search queue. This new game mode keeps the same rules as All Pick but shortens match time by granting more Gold & XP to heroes; making defensive towers weaker; and reducing respawn time. Turbo's relaxed rules and buy-anywhere shop system allow for casual, quick matches perfect for trying new heroes and strategies, or introducing friends to Dota in a more forgiving environment."

fury man
rightclick + trees

Post Pugna.
Did i missed any new Pugnas?

4k complainer again

i got a literal 4k dude on my team (500 mmr lower) and this guy can farm like a fucking chink on ritalin and yet games before you can get a 4.7 who can hardly last hit

this shit is insane

The buy anywhere shit makes turbo mode more demanding and stressful than any normal game of dota ever

...

opendota.com/matches/3545904989/story

sounds like a great game for everyone

The rolling thunder stun is basically nonexistent because of how much strength(status resistance) Pudge has, so it's doing a ton of instances of damage

It shouldn't work this way but it's kinda funny

>tell team to pick hard carries
>pick techies
>wait an hour
>win
wtf icefrog???

sauce

oh, right, I get it. Rolling Thunder can't stack with itself but it can be re-applied as soon as the debuff is gone.

b-but I did ;_;
it might even be connected to my steam account because you can login with steam on dotaconcept

Why'd they nerf Gyro's rocket max damage? Shit's lame.

Also mark my words gyro will be popular pub carry 7.08 screencap

jesus christ help

AM, i can't lane against axe or mk
everyone else is pretty ez.

don't really care about disables. too many phys damage cores and i prefer not to pick AM.

I do worry about CK and PA - it's 50/50 because those two heroes have a tendency to spiral out of control because your team is retarded and wants to fight and "gank" them mid game while they are at their strongest.

>pangolier is shi-
youtube.com/watch?v=UX20hzKgNjU

sorry user ever since new update i have had trouble finding games as well I assume its because everyone is playing turbo mode or being good goys and not getting low prio

...

Shouldn't Pangolier's shield crash treat illusions as heroes? Against CK it's useless otherwise.

HELP my '3' key takes me to the top rune and I need it to play beastmaster. Which files do I delete to fix this old as fuck hotkey?

Does STR reduce the duration of silences too?
And shit like slark leash?

Should reduce that, I played kunnka earlier and x was pulling me about 1 sec earlier than it should.

...

>300% damage resistance
are you dumb?

because how many times has someone outside of 2k actually died from the rocket damage

me on the right

Reminder that Pangolier's voice lines confirmed Jakiro and OD are the two most hung heroes in Dota.

>hero goes invisible
>all chat
REPORT X THEY DIDNT BUY DUST BECAUSE THEY ARE FUCKING BRAINDEAD

that really hurt my fee fees (feelings)

As it should be. Pangolier should be tanky as fuck against illusion users.

Do you have the one where OD has a big fat cock

god they really fucking dumpstered mkb didnt they?
What's their vendetta against this item? No reason to buy it now.

for evasion heroes

...

>countering evasion for 1000 less gold than before
>is no longer garbage on illusion heroes
>nerfed

excellent

I played a game with that retard Purge today and he had a meltdown over mic about Bernie Sanders. Does he have a drinking problem? He fed too.

>removed ministun
>removed +66 damage
>nerfed proc damage
>truestrike is now sometimesstrike

Just get Medallion you fuck.

>nov 9th tho

You be the judge playing with OD and fogged is my favorite they are so chill

>nerfed
it's much better now, pure damage proc is better than whatever the fuck it had before

toby is creepy as fuck tho

mkb on every hero

>wait 15 minutes for que
>game client is out of date
FUCK YOU VALVE

it should do more in laning stage imo. if you use your swashbuckle to secure cs from a distance you're fucked for the rest of that creep wave in terms of an escape. shield crash also gives you so little survivability if say you hit two heroes in lane because you'll only get 16% DMG reduction for your 500 something HP; buying rings of protection would probably do more. something like a 100% MS slow on shield crash for 1 sec wouldn't make it too OP when used in conjunction with the -2 CD in rolling boulder because you're probably stunning them anyway.

>rock paper scissors
excellent

Is Tobiwan still around? What about Artosis?

Tobi left like a year ago user...

He's just a really shit laner. He shines as a roamer as well as going highground, swashbuckle is really versatile. it would be pretty op if it wasn't for the stupid long cooldown until level 4

What's your unsung hero of this patch, /d2g/?

So what's the verdict on Dark Willow and Pangolier? Shit? Decent? OP?

these am nerfs

Pangolier is weird and undertuned but has potential to be retard strong, especially if Chilltoad takes Reddit too seriously.
Willow is retarded.

Looks like icefrog got backdoored. Deso+AC Clinkz was my 100%WR hero out of 2k

>Backdoor Protection damage reduction increased from 25% to 40%

fucking hackfrog

>Pangolier: Swashbuckle now changes your attack damage to 24/42/60/78 rather than just dealing physical damage as an independent nuke (this means the listed amount can now proc for lifesteal, crit, etc)

well, he did it.

get fucked ain't mage pickers. give me my MMR back!

Not even nerfed hard enough.

Shield Crash in general is really underwhelming. Even if you manage to hit a full team he still gets blown up really easily. I think it needs to disjoint projectiles and make him invincible while casting so that he has something for skilled plays. Could also boost the damage reduction if you manage to disjoint a spell.

He's not really a good roamer either since until you get blink dagger you'll get blown the fuck up if you try and make some plays happen. His passive being a fairly low chance effect also means you can't rely on it for chases.

Now we're talking. The swashbuckle changes are interesting since that means you can also cleave.

>No shield crash bug fix
fake

>pangolier fixed

I'm sure if Slacks can do it then you can as well.

play a hard 5

>no one is playing my shitty fur bait hero better overbuff it
just end yourself abdul

you were never good and just coasted on the accomplishments of guinso and eul

TWO WAVEFORMS
W
O

bruh the more significant change is the adaptive strike (agility) changes and the level 10 talent change

the typical morph build (ethereal + agility stacking shit) is even more effective now

>Dark Willow: Cursed Crown cast range reduced from 800 to 600
>nerfing the skill nobody complained about while leaving shadow realm untouched
This better not be real.

Beastmaster nerfs...only 3 pro games icefrog.. :,-(

>dotards think mkb got buffed

It literally did.

* Pangolier: Shield Crash damage reduction increased from 8/10/12/14 to 9/12/15/18%

What? People pretty much complained about how random (and fucking strong for a standalone skill) the ability synergies with her skill set other than LMAO GOOD ALCHEMIST STUN.
