>That's now the problem in your bracket , it's your decision making.
i don't disagree, but when people are first picking 1st/2nd/3rd picking lycan, brood and tinker and you at the end of the draft have one 1.5 sec disable across your team it becomes a problem, or when it's 50 minutes in against a cc/heavy magic damage lineup and none of your cores have bkbs, or when your safelane carry goes phase boots into mkb because the enemy has a pa.
people pick bad heroes and build bad items, then lose by default because they're scared of leaving the base.
i went from 2k to 4.7k peak, having the pleasure of playing with people as high as 5.5k and the difference in picks and builds are night and day, so i don't think it's fair to say there's too much focus on picks when the truth is that can be easy as fuck when you have the superior draft.

...

Wtf I love anime now

Rate this swedish fuccboi

...

How would you build offlane DP?

you start with plenty of regen, then value early items into what's situationally correct based on the enemy lineup

>being a mid cuck

>if envy wins one more series he's qualified
fuck
how do we stop him?

should have told the indogs to not choke against geek fampai

>indogs
>Not choke

>try to ban le balanced anonymous time traveler in every game because he's annoying as fuck
>he goes through every game
>somebody on the enemy team picks him almost every game because they think it'll tilt me
>they actually suck dick because they don't know how to play the hero at all

*be 5-0 against enemy mid laner*
*void shows up to your lane with 4 heroes*
*solo chronoes you*
*jaja ez mid*

I can not identify with any of the posts complaining about their pubs in these threads anymore, what is the actual average mmr of this general? It has to be sub 4k.

>what is the actual average mmr of this general? It has to be sub 4k.
Is your first week here?

>there are people in the world that think this is pretty

I don't remember it ever being quite so shit as it is right now, people seem to have the most bizarre pub experiences

>JUST hairdo

My boils bulge! OwO

>that feel when necrophos sucks now

he really needs his buyback prevention scepter back

w-woah dude are you 4k mmr? that's like, really good, man. you must be super good at dota 2! lol

lmao man

lmao

rate team dotards
>gorgc
>rime
>bamboe
>me
>singsing

>bamboe
why do you wanna lose this badly

Support Sven was overnerfed. WK support might be worth experimenting with once jungling gets buffed though.

...

excellent work lads keep up the good posts!

...

why do euros love ck so much

Is this in order of positions 1-5?
Cause I don't see sing playing 5

You just don't get real cute

>it's another low 4ks all pick carries but can't carry the game episode
if ur 4k mmr with more hours played than mmr blow your fucking brains out

...

>memeleague is back
why the fuck is there so much fucking dota?

nu-major system

it's not even a fuckin league this time and it's just the casters thanks a lot valve

>Pick enchantress
>Make enemy carry´s life a living hell
>Ward his jungle as well and come in whenever he goes to farm there.
There is just something oddly satisfying about seeing enemy juggernaut get battlefury 21 minutes into the game

That's a pretty good feeling. Another good one is
>get 3 man ganked mid
>get a triple kill

just OD and fogged is better than the shitty slacks panels

dont forget to donate to her patreon anons

is there a good hero to go against huskar as a solo offlane?

i'm honestly looking at the roster right now and i can't think of any

ench

>oh hello there i see you love to fight at low amounts of HP!

axe, centaur maybe, undying (falls off hard in late), enchantress, dragon knight

abaddon

>sees huskar safelane
MUMMY CUMS

Old brood

surely free pathing is better than a shitty gimmick vs huskar

So how do you avoid getting reported, if you don't talk at all?

playing well

you seem mad

>Lose two games today because we didn't have a mid player and had 4 support players
Role based match making when

what if you get forced into situations where personal skill does not matter and people interpret your failings as you playing badly?

>pick io first time in 2+ years
>Lane really well go 1-0-2 in four minutes and gank mid
>Say lines from "still alive" in all chat after winning team fights
>Teach my Sven and wk how overcharge works and they're amazed, have never played with io
>After match get 5 commends and behavior score rises from F to D for the first time

I think I just figured something out.

dont put yourself in that situation
whether that be through draft, outplaying your opponent or by enabling another player on your team

What kind of a parallel universe do you live in, where you get 4 support players instead of 4 mid players in any given match?

follow this step by step guide user!

I've never been to low prio and I'm extremely toxic

Just
>Don't run down mid more than once a week
>Blame someone else before people start to blame
>Beg for commands when you win, I think it offsets reports

What are the chances that Icefrog finally gets rid of the memeback brawling meta we've been stuck with for 3 years before The International?

I don't do any of these things, though.
I get forced against a trilane with two junglers on my team and then they complain about getting dove and dying

that happened to me earlier
>be level 7 TA
>shadow shaman ,earthshaker, and SF come smoke gank my lane where i've strategically set up my psi traps
>kill all of them

*pats head*

I've lost plenty of 2k games with five supports. I pick one first and they just never stop

People below ~4k do not derive any strategic knowledge or meaning from seeing hero picks on either team

>>>Blame someone else before people start to blame
This usually works for me. Once you know the game is over make it seem like someone else on your team fucked you guys over.

This unironically happened to me too two days ago, pos 4 and 5 picked and suddenly rubick picked saying he doesnt know how to mid. And in the end he was forced into mid anyway losing it...anyway
The added trap damage is incredible. People underestimate it too much
