>offlane QoP

thanks, no anime

Why are you all still wasting your time and your lives posting in these threads and playing / watching this shit game?
Isn't it time you moved on?

Honest questions here.

Reminder to the faggot named Milque Toast that you're a fucking nigger, you suck at this fucking game, and you literally abandoned a match with me because you're terrible trash and wanted to blame your Dazzle.

Is this the right thread?

yes you dumb newfag

yes

Why? That Adelaide thread was fine.

I haven't played Dota in 4 months and I still want to fucking die. Just keep raging at peruvians guys, the grass isn't greener on the other side.

t. 40 year old moortogese man

Why are you still wasting your time with this kusoge? Haven't you realized that this game is still a mess of code hammered into itself and build upon a complete mesh of instable versions. Every patch that comes out breaks more shit than actually fixes it and every time now since 2014 there has been a 3-4 Hero FOTM trend that keeps cycling to make the game more casual friendly.

Valvo knows for a fact that they can leave the game for broken and dead for months on in that despite all crying, it will still be steam's #2 most played game, since the community is filled with literally shit eater shitlords.

They give zero response, they give zero shits about balance, zero shits about support, zero shits about actual improvement, zero shits about new content and zero shits about anything that isn't jewing kids out of their parent's credit cards.

This is why they can push eccentric and useless, despite really "cool", stuff into the market like the Steam VR, that probably costed both an unimaginable amount of money to produce that still even raw content, and the resources that a company like Valvo would probably never have unless they hadn't jewed over 60 million big ones with DOTA 2 tournaments.

Now just think if all the money that went into the whole VR shit had went allocated into fixing and improving DOTA 2. What kind of game would we have right now?

But instead, we have this, broken, mashed, hammered piece of shit, because yeah, no matter what, YOU SHITSTAINS WILL KEEP EATING VALVO'S SHIT BY THE SPOON AND LOVE IT.

Fucking end your sad existence, seriously.

this doesnt even make sense

kiss my ass, loser

>Chad Friend starts playing Dota
>immediately picks up the basics in his first game
>use lots of voice communication and asserts a dominant leader role and boosts team morale
>doesn't stress in the picking phase just asks someone else what to pick and roams and gets kills
some people are just born good at everything they do in life. It's not fair bros

Artifact when

kill urself, frog poster

>zero shits about support
o ur just mad that ur shit at videogames ok then

who are the currently best mids in the pro scene?

ive heard [no one] but curious as to how really good is he that pros avoid laning agaisnt him

tell him to add me

if dota was about skill then players like rtz would've won ti instead of peepoodee

t. tiago

he's still number 1

>Someone actually seriously replied to the pasta

lol.

LOL!

rtz is only good mechanically nothing more

skill is more than that

singsing

>noone
He's a viper picker

literally Fatard-tier

/lolg/ here looking to switch

What the fuck is creep pulling and blocking?

Adelaide?

you block to keep your creeps closer to your tower, which is safer for you to cs and more dangerous for the enemy laner
you pull to farm as a support or to reset lane equilibrium as a carry

Pulling is pulling the jungle creeps by drawing their aggro and then running into your lane to make them intercept your lane creeps. This can effectively let heroes clear a jungle camp or two and deny enemy lane EXP by denying lane creeps to jungle creeps as well as pulling the lane equilibrium back.

Blocking, or body-blocking, is just using your character's collision model to constantly interrupt pathing of a unit, typically lane blocking when the first wave comes to get the lane in your favor but it can even work on players. You can even block off entire routes with 1 unit, especially in trees.

Perth?

>There are Dotards RIGHT NOW in THIS THREAD that don't know how to beguile creeps into walking closer to them at will

IM GOING TO FUCKING EAT YOU QT!

>beguile
Take your (You) & go

OK that makes sense thanks

>creep pulling
neutral creeps in the jungle have a small distance you can pull them before they stop aggroing and return to their camp.
you can pull some of the neutral camps into the lane, and if your creeps are walking passed at the same time they will aggro onto the jungle creeps and chase them back to the camp.
this allows you to do some things in the early game;
-the creeps are dying away from the enemy heroes in the lane so they miss out on xp and gold
-it allows you as a support/offlane to get more xp and gold than you normally would
-it resets the creep equilibrium if it gets fucked up too badly
it's basically something that supports and offlanes do. maybe a carry that's being left alone because they are strong enough to do so.
you either want to stack the camp first, so all the neutral creeps bully your creeps to death, or if you want to push you can pull without stacking so you have a stronger wave to push with since it takes about 30 seconds for the creeps to beat up the neutrals

>blocking
this is normally only done in mid, since it doesn't matter so much except maybe for the offlane.
you can walk in front of the creeps and block their movement so they take longer to rich the point where the creeps normally meet.
this is done for a few reasons
-if you can block so the creeps are on your high ground the enemy mid laner is less safe, since they have to walk into the river and lose their high ground vision. if they are ranged they also get fucked over on 20% (70% if you're me) of their last hits because lmao uphill miss.
-your closer to your tower so you're safe, and the enemy is further away from their's so they are less safe

>199973601
You literally just gave me 3 (You)'s.

tl;dr

How do you keep yourselves motivated to play Dota? I've only 200 hours in it, but I feel like there isn't really anything to do outside of buying cosmetics and trying to git gud. Does Dota have any sort of endgame?

>a free treasure after 3 wins? why don't mind if i d-

>Does Dota have any sort of endgame?
becoming racist and hating life

this is my girlfriend (we've had sex before)

haha you little child
that's the entry requirements

>implying you werent all of them

Do you people actually derive a dopamine high from having others reply to you? You're not having meaningful conversations, or even rusing people in clever ways to get them riled up, you're all just asking a question and deriving a positive emotional response just from getting responses alone.
Is there a meme I'm missing or are you guys this deprived of human contact and feedback?

So I should only pull as a support if I stack first?

yes

>becoming racist
oh u asian right, u were already racist and stay mad whitey wins ti

n-no

>enter next game
>russian_name (windrunner): me and viper offlane
>viper feeds first blood at minute 0

in 7.08 icefrog will add a new hero, give pango/willow aghs and add them to captains mode, and upgrades to kaya and allows kaya to be combined with sange and yasha

why do uneducated retards think dopamine is what makes you happy
go read a wiki article, the main happiness transmitter is serotonine

keep grinding user you'll get your Christmas hat eventually

I own these threads.
Now suck on it, shitlords.

i watched the sopranos and 'i have a quarry to settle' now makes sense to me, tony settles quarries

me on the top

What would be the highest raw DPS build for PL?
Stacking Butterflies and a Daedalus?

er... No.
That's me.

>this hero has been buffed 9 patches in a row and is still complete dogshit
which hero am I talking about /d2g/?

GO BACK PLEASE LEDDIT

Kaya will not combine with Sange or Yasha.
Instead a new item will be introduced which will - Aria.

Belt of Strength, Robe of the Magi, Band of Elvenskin and a 600 gold recipe.

+6 to all stats.
Provides 30% faster cast animations.

alch

butterflies

Atos will get an upgrade, it will also now slow the targets animation for 4 seconds (including 4 second root), They will turn, attack, and cast slower.

Hey guys, what if, made you look!
