whut

...

>his versatility was lowered

Invokers whole identity as a hero is then thrown into the trash.

If anything his utility should be pumped, and his damaging abilities toned down. Also he should be re balanced and forced to allocate points into all his elements, not just one to avoid the one trick pony issue.

Basically heres my idea

>Make current Agh's his standard Invoke
>Make all his elements level at the same time, similarly to shadow raze
>Reduce mana costs to compensate for this nerf, making it necessary to rotate through abilities to remain effective
>Also add some more utility to his abilities (Meteor mini-stun, Sunstrike ignite/reveal, EMP Slow, etc as examples)

Now Invoker requires actual skill to succeed at, rather than just spamming the same 3 spells all game that are drastically over-scaled.

Anime makes you better at dota

lmao

So nipple-BH threadstarter is going to be a thing for the foreseeable future now

cropped porn posting was a mistake

>that sonic wave

These are professional players who get payed real money to play like this.

can you, with a straight face, say dota is a high skill game?

The fact that this hero doesn't exist demonstrates how out of touch the developers are to the community.

Games dead folks, go home.

post dota sluts

I play better when I'm horny

...

I know most of you are probably already tired of hearing the same old question but I'm legitimately new to the Dota 2 scene and I'm trying to get a good jumpstart. What should I do to get a good calibration? My summary indicates that I'm in very positive standing with teammates but my win ratio is 60% so I'm anxious to do 10 calibration games.

...

>You'd get banned for posting this image because it is porn
>Posts an image containing the said "porn"

post dotabuff

league whores out.

RURU GETTING B T F O

that moment when you're grinding mmr then ou suddenly realize that we will all die someday and there's no turning back once you started aging

incredible realisation, you are truly a thinker

What the fuck is a dotabuff? I'm just the warding support guy that tries to keep the carries alive.

...

Are you talking about initial ranked calibration (i.e. you have never played ranked before), or the recent recalibration thing when they introduced the badges? The recalibration matches don't matter, it's just 10 normal ranked games but if you have very high mmr it will scale you down some. For the calibration matches there are unknown heuristics, but it's probably just stuff like gpm, wards purchased, . You used to be able to exploit it and get a high calibration even if you lost all your games by playing zeus and spamming ult off cooldown for massive hero damage, but they fixed that. Just try your best. But I wouldn't calibrate until you have at least 500 games because if you calibrate low it can be very difficult to climb.

>implying that's an old news
enjoy it while it lasts

holy shit dude fuck off

Yeah I'm on a brand new acount with no past ranked experience but I've been playing Dota 1 competitively for a few years, even won a couple of local tournamets with a 500$ prizepool lol. Dota 2 is a different animal tho, I'm still trying to adjust correctly and avoid fucking up.

when you realize nothing in life matters

Why isn't xyclops fired already? Does the kike pay him in pennies? Is he doing the cast for free?

>mfw you realize everything in life matters and you have to take responsibility for it

so all that matters is you enjoy it.
*eats more ice cream* :3

let me cawwy pofition 1 pwease

n-no

children should be banned from public places and internet desu

This is actually a neat concept if the ult is scaled back a little bit

>play absolutely out of my mind on tusk
>"commend tusk" "tusk carried the game"
is there a better feeling in all of the games?

you have ten seconds to swap any pair of spells from two different heroes to make one hero broken and the other useless

Well you baited me, Tusk players just dont know the feels.

Swap Morph and Drow ultimates

please do not bully me tusk is fun

morph ult with drow's 50% cooldown reduction though

You wont get to lvl 25 on a shitty hero like drow without drow ult

r63 slark?

Ult was basically tacked on because I ran out of train-like things for it to do unless you want to give him Passenger Car as his ultimate instead. That would be way too strong probably.

inner vitality and jingu mastery

umm guys

I think Lanaya may be best girl

she was before icefrog ruined her.

Lina's Fiery Soul for Weaver's Swarm

>play turbo all day to raise behavior score
>From behavior report, i got reported 4 times in 10 turbo games

didnt troll or feed or do anything bad once, people just infinitely report each other in a circle in F behavior score. It's impossible to ever get out with it being like this.

that makes both heroes broken. weaver is easily capable of gaining 3 stacks

I know, I thought it would make lina pretty bad

lina retains her stun and nukes, while getting a decent utility ability. makes her worse as a core but pretty damn good as a support

Real challenge:
Swap two spells to make both heroes OVERPOWERED.

>lina now has 5000 range vision +support spell and loses useless shit that never works

you thought that made her worse?

>he "thinks"
>he doesn't "know"

Divided We Stand and Sunder

I agree with you user, heraldbros don't know that fiery soul is her best ability.

What if every stack of fiery soul gave you 3% spell amplification? It's logical since you're building up power/energy with every spell thrown. It's only logical that the flame that's building up inside you doesn't just boost your attack speed but your spells as well.

sticky napalm and surge.

>show trailer for miyazaki-san's next masterwork at TGAs
>then don't show anything at the PSX conf the following day

DOTARDS I AM SO ANGRY
but at least VP is winning

Good idea

breaks dark seer but actually makes bat significantly worse, he becomes close to useless early game now as his laning presence is destroyed and his ability to quickly farm jungle stacks is also destroyed

meepo would be trash without ult

I wasn't doing the "two broken heroes" challenge. I was doing the easier one that's just "make one hero useless while busting another"

that's the point, whereas TB would be pretty fucking broken as sunder isn't that integral to him, and each TB clone would have its own meta and its own 2 illusions. he would be squishy but really not that squishier than meepo is after the nerfs anyway

yeah you're probably right. I was just thinking he could ult someone and then pull them back a long way
