LOOOOOOOOOOOOL Dotards BTFO

let's face facts

Moonduck is the best thing to happen to Dota since Slacks showed up

>killing BTS
>create tons of memes
>bringing out the best in tier 2 casters like Maut
>unique Tournaments
>do all they can to get new players interested in dota
why haven't you taken the Moonpill yet?

FUCK sniper

Reminder that female Pugna will NEVER be real.

these dudes are dropping a disgusting amount of money to get streamers to host them - and that game looks shiiiiiiiiiiet

>Win 9 out of 10 calibration games, and don't lose any of them
>MMR is the same as before
?????????????????????

A bunch of people lost 500+ MMR so be happy

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.

>"b-b-but they are bribing for hosts!"
SAD!

>not real capitalism

uhhhh dotards, FLUFFNSTUFF is casting NA quals on beyond the shekel right now, THIS IS NOT A DRILL
BRIAN IS REALLY GONNA DO IT THIS TIME

nth for BSJ feeding relentlessly

Doesn't LoL use a massive amount of botviewers on twitch?

>play mid
>safelaner throws the game
>play safelane
>get zero lane support against an aggro offlane while mid feeds
very fair and balanced matchmaking!

>biggest game in the world using bots
umm LOL?

>tfw no futa hero

It's not slutty but a pure and beautiful thing to lose yourself in the loving arms of your carry.

How do you guys have the patience to grind for MMR ? I only wanted to calibrate and 9 games later i'm mad enough to murder someone and don't give a shit about it
Or is it autism ?

Reminder that you are the only constant in all of your games and that the losses are your fault for not being good enough,

the constant here is you

Ummmm dotard?

youtube.com/watch?v=xzpndHtdl9A

I told you. I told you that the game would only get worse if people just let valve do whatever with the game. Now the game is the buggiest, less balanced it has been in since the times of Guinzo, and the number of active players is even dropping while league's are growing. Fuck every single one of you who let this happen.

>play a team game
>don't have a team
>get provided a team literally for FREE
>complain that they aren't good
xD

with GRINDING TUNES (post em): youtube.com/watch?v=clt08jllwIU

Because i'm alright with losing, but not when it's due to sheer stupidity and lack of listening advice and keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

>tfw you gf pegs you for every 10k players dota loses

pic unrelated?

I don't.
I don't even play this game unless i'm in a 5 stack.
Why would you play a competitive game in anything less than an 100% competitive environment?

why is everyone building Blademail on bloodseeker now

he dosnt seem to have enough Hp for it to be good

gay

>while league's are growing

they don't release leagues numbers, but every metric suggests the game is declining outside of china, and HEAVILY losing players in EU

what the fuck is wrong with Chinks? Why are they taking over every game?

It's not pegging if it's an actual dick user.

...

bloodrage increases damage taken and dealt

lol shitters told me gooks are unbeatable but these gooks cant even beat bsj lmao

gooks outside of gookland aren't good, it's the gooks in gookland you have to worry about

yeah you get kicked from there if you're bad

The place I used to work at accepted children with mental disorders, because refusing them would taint their image.

who here /ontilt?

that was before the last couple of updates. they revamped their hated runes system, improved their commendation sytem and added a loli character. The game has never been more popular, and that says something.

What has dota2 been doing? Declining on every aspect.

People give shit to overwatch for having blind fanboys who can't even tell their map and character design is shit, but you people let a good game turn into shit just to please a fat fuck who doesn't even make videogames anymore.

it if has a dick its not a girl

stop talking shit about /ourguy/ cyborgmatt redditor

dotards will unironically report this post

:|

it's time

how is that short fat gnome without a nose jumping so high?

>People using "reddit spacing" on their bait.

?

stop wasting everyone's time and take the forlatt you trashcan

You can't call facts "bait", user. You'll have to accept the concequences of your actions (or lack thereof) at some point.

Literally FREE (you)s.

Im archon(4) does that mean im a pleb?

i miss my cuckholding gf poster

Who is superior, russian, pinoy, peru?

russians

Russians, they're almost white after all.

wtf i love slavs now

russians > pinoys >>>>>>>>>>>>> peruvians

I fucking hate these new medals. It's all feel-good bullshit, you no longer are a 2k shitter, you now are a Guardian!
Fuck off

russians honestly aren't that bad. they have the most high-skill players by far and have a higher chance of actually behaving like normal people. a lot of the "good russians" just don't speak russian so you'll rarely actually know if you're dealing with one

Only Jews say slavs aren't white

>slav
>whites

american education everyone. Bet you think Irish and Italians are ''''''''''''white'''''''''''' as well.

Yep, literally participation awards, blizzard style.
But of course it's ok when Valve do it.

t. herald

wtf is wrong with his eyes

literally cant remember a russian feeding or throwing
can remember a turk once

ive played d2 for a year on eu west

I said "almost", and for the record, they're whiter than amerimutts.

>don't quote anyone
>the shitposter calls himself out

he is nonwhite

Hmmmmmmm
Really makes you think

What is the proper way to play against invis heroes. I bought 35 sentries in the last game I played against slark. We lost.

What am I doing wrong? As a support, spamming sentries ruins my fucking wallet. What is the option? If I don't buy sentries, he will kill me. The paranoia that invis heroes cause in this game is unreal. It really breaks support wallets.

What is the proper way of handling invis enemies?

Why is /d2g/ so edgy?

Ur so fucking cucked that you can't even see how stupid this is
>I spend millions on sentries
>If I dont buy sentries he will kill me
thats so wrong because you can buy items to save your sorry ass if you dont waste it mindlessly on useless sentries

who the fuck buys almost 4k golds worth of sentries?

>leviathan picked our girl
>bsj ruins the game anyway
it's a bad feel

shrAPNEL

>calibrate at Divine 5
so what's the point of even playing anymore

your rank will never decrease lmao

H*CK OFF YOU FR*CKING R*TARD

to try again in six months. :^)

based

Guardian is 1k bro.

You've beat the game, dotard.

all they had to do was reset mmr every 6 months

instead they cut the games carotid artery and watch the playerbase bleed

I mean they fucking delayed this patch for 2 weeks jesus christ what a company

>who the fuck buys almost 4k golds worth of sentries?
baddies

i bet someone will tell you to cut your own carotid artery
do not
its just a game

What are my options? I want to not have to buy so many but anytime a invis hero escapes people yell "WHERE IS THE DETECTION!?"

I don't want to be cucked anymore but what can I do? I am only interested in offlane and supporting.

dotards?

So, if reddit like the KYS meme would icefraud add a recipe with the 3 swords + bloodstone?

I don't see the problem, get divine 5 and you don't have to play dota anymore. You literally won dota. You're finally free.

Is SingSing dare I say it... /ourguy/?

blademail + bloodstone: for 3 seconds you reflect 100% of all damage, but die afterwards.

If an invis hero escapes its not the world
You only need sentries to push so you dont get surprise buttfucked and for dewarding

Having dust is mandatory but only use it when you know you can get the kill as followup
dont waste dusts

Just focus more on getting support items that actually help you do your job, and its most important to stay alive so work on getting a ghost or glimmer or force if they can pick you off too easily

What comes after Divine?

>anytime a invis hero escapes people yell "WHERE IS THE DETECTION!?"
Ignore the flaming of your fellow 1k MMR shitters. If they knew any better they'd buy their own detection and have better MMR.

Buy defensive items like force staff and glimmer cape, and learn to use them to save people's asses.

Use sentry wards sparingly to monitor hot spots (where they keep ganking you, or where they're hiding in lane), and use dust when you're pretty sure it will get you a kill or save someone.

About to play my first game. Wish me luck man.

Valve will add an Immortal tier for the highest 200 people in that region

Blademail already reflects 100% of all damage.
