This game won't get many more new players as long as a litany of out-of-game references and guides are the best way to learn.
This game probably wouldn't be Dota anymore if no longer were a litany of out-of-game references and guides are the best way to learn.

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.

region lock when?
William Diaz
Take it up with "super smart developer" valve for having a shit tutorial
Cooper Sanchez
why would they kick their best player?
Joshua Parker
another 2-0 for Liquid coming right up?
Anthony Martin
told you they'd throw one
Brayden Powell
i was pretty sure about it but i still had some doubts, but now i'm 100% sure. valve uses behavior score as a way to "predict" who's gonna win a certain match.
i just played a match where the average MMR of the two teams was literally the same and i got 23 points for winning it. the enemy team flamed themselves on all chat the entire game while my enemy team cooperated and was pretty respectful. valve knew this was gonna happen before the game even started.

dearest faggots. what do you get against high mobility heroes that seem to get picked all the time right now (storm, miranda, weaver...). i'm not sure what heroes are good against them.
Carter Johnson
Anime and delusions.
Austin Walker
Being better than other teams
Josiah Baker
they had let the holograms simulate the game exactly
Joshua Young
Ammoniumnitrate
Thomas Miller
stuns and disable in general of course bane is stupidly strong right now, try him
Henry Mitchell
Who would have guessed that slacks is there for memes and goofs instead of real analysis
Dylan Murphy
while my team cooperated* i think it's pretty clear that the shadow pool is actually real, if not then why would i get only 23 MMR for winning if the average MMR of the two teams was the exact same?
Austin King
kuroko no basket
Grayson Flores
There are 3 options in my opinion. >hard lockdown so mobility hero can't get away >super high burst so mobility hero has to run away instead of fighting >pushing line up, ignore mobility hero and take objectives
Jayden White
Yes, but WHYand why can no other team seem to replicate it
Ryan Cooper
Support Kunkka has been good to me, need to have other people on the team to kill people tho. X Marks fucks over a lot of mobile heroes and just runners in general.
Angel Robinson
They are more talented and work harder and have better team synergy.
Henry Martin
Got my gamergrub on deck for a night of esports
Asher Moore
team chemistry is really weird and it's very hard to predict what will make a team great. liquid was bottom tier until GH replaced one of their players. pinpointing what makes a team really great is almost impossible especially because you don't really know the players and their relationships.

do you guys like the lane creep invulnerability during glyph?
Sebastian Myers
well this is bullshit
Dylan Murphy
Is KnB an actual decent sport anime or just a shonen that tries to pass as it? cause I was thinking of watching that.
Anthony Gutierrez
>PA pickers
James Price
whew, thought Liquid intentionally threw at drafting but I see that this one is IN THE BAG
guesses on Empire surrender time? I'm going with 21:00
Dominic Cox
How about "Invisible While Blurred" for one of PA's 10 talents? Would have a ~1.5 second fade time.
Thomas Green
Yes Glyph was pretty much we're desperate and theres nothing else we can do, at least its less so now It at least stops heroes from nuking the wave while the tower is invulnerable and rendering the few seconds it gives even more useless.
Cooper Carter
it's a shounen, it's a sportsanime where the main characters all have some kind of "superpower" it's entertaining but, also heavely overrated

Valve should fly out any 8k+ player willing to bootcamp with other 8k+'s of the same region to form good teams and make the scene competitive. Current teams would be invited as well. However the intentions of using it to form other top tier teams would be hidden and marketed solely as a stream type thing and also a practice thing to the players.

>opponent picks timber >timber hasn't had a major change during the 5 years he's been in the game outside of the talents >you know his weaknesses >you for some reason can't counter him DUDE JUST BURST HIM WITH MAGIC LMAO. SO EASY. HE'S LITERALLY MADE OF PAPER AGAINST MAGIC.
Evan Torres
I'm not really expecting much from it, and I don't mind a little exaggeration of personal skills and abilities but it would be nice if everyone didn't have superpowers and just played basketball somewhat normally.
Matthew Gutierrez
I was off by 3 minutes :(
Benjamin Bailey
The new urn upgrade would cut timber's regen down right?
Jose Nguyen
y
Noah Morales
Yes yes !!! :3333
Jackson Wood
It would negate the regen and more. But russians think urn should be built on 5 position supports so it would never happen.

Isaiah Myers
I mean just give the first 2-3 episodes a try, I think you will find out pretty fast if you like it or not Anyway as far as sportsanime go I would recommend Haikyuu and PingPong the Animation
Chase Thomas
They sponsored Jimmy for his stream which averaged 3k+ viewers. Not his competitive career.
Cameron Hill
I think Huskar is the best one. It's almost impossible to play against a Huskar in pubs if your team has no heroes that can deal with him.
Eli Jenkins
An uncounted huskar is a literal god
Christopher Young

Colton Price
shouldn't that say series instead of game?

Oliver Ramirez
No, they did. Do you not remember Liquid.Pegasus?
Noah Ross
I'm pretty satisfied that Liquid is still steamrolling tournaments. They are good goys, no pricks on the team whatsoever. Every other team has at least 1 mandatory prick.
Elijah Edwards
nice bait
Blake Gutierrez
Yea, I already seen Haikyuu and it was great thats why wanted to see another. I'll give it a shot (Pingpong too).
Blake Torres
God I want their secret sauce so badf.
Bentley Phillips
The one time NA liquid managed to beat DK, Newbee, EG and Alliance in a single day.
Hunter Cook
eg you mean secret
Michael Jackson
Yeah they won all the tournaments so far except the ones that actually matter.

I'm a new player.
Not having a hard time learning with bots and I know how to google. Just had my first match and I did okie. 2nd most kills for a team that lost using Lich.
Beyond team moves and map knowledge, items and attributes are the main thing I don't really know about. Particularly active items as I don't remember to use any.
First MOBA / at 30 hours on my 4th day this is the most playtime I have for anything else on steam
