REMINDER FOR PEOPLE ANGRY AT THIS NEW PLUS SHIT

Want to play a MOBA where:
>games are shorter and less frustrating, averaging around 20 minutes each
>heroes are more varied and fun, for example there's a two-player co-op hero where one player controls the movement and one player can cast spells, a hero who plays by sitting in a coccoon and remotely buffing allies, setting traps and using allies as vessels to attack from
>no items to worry about, just pick from three talents every few levels, most characters have at least two ults you can pick from
>a big variety of maps, all with different playstyles and objectives, like capturing points to summon a two-player mech to beat shit up with, gathering coins and handing them in to summon a pirate ship that shoots enemy towers etc. etc.

Then try Heroes of the Storm, we're not a ded game with dumb subscription shit.

The only downside is that not every hero is unlocked from the start, but you get a pretty generous 14-hero free rotation per week and daily challenges that throw gold at you so buying heroes isn't as bad of a grind as say, League.

Come to the fun, less frustrating side /d2g/, I did ages ago and I don't regret it one bit.

just bought Dota plus why am i still 2K?

what
the
actual
fuck
is
happening
to
dota

they have LITERAL redditors in charge of this game right now who LITERALLY think this is a good idea, make rick and morty voice packs, and change the game according to upvotes

Also wasn't this accomplished by opening the shop and selecting the Torte the Jewni and selecting the appropriate guide based on your lane?

how is reddit reacting to this?

It's just fresh bait.

the fact that they actually have social media women liking random posts defending them now speaks volumes about how valve has changed. there is a cancer growing within that company. in the past they would not have posted or liked anything for years while the game gets better and better.

this pyuk hyuk is wonderful

It's time to uninstall guys. Such Jewish Approach should not be tolerated.

>dotards will buy and defend this
kek

is there a possibility that matchmaking gets worse because people autopick and Valve's system is bad?

>game played exclusively by 3rd worlders, retards and children. like dota except worse
>no matter how hard you try you cant carry because theres no items, exp is team wide and meme objectives win the game for you
>bans consist entirely of the overwatch cast because they are all the best heroes in the fucking game
>gimmick heroes ruin games because theyre played entirely by idiots like abathur, cho'gall and fucking probius

>being able to buy heroes instead of being able to grind for them is pay to win
>features that are only available if you pay money are not pay to win

how fucking bold valve
the third world hordes will not pay for this you morons
retract it right fucking now

/hsg/ here
you have not even begun to see REAL jewry
But after seeing this rest assured artifact will make blizzard-activision blush

these features dont give you an advantage that one could not already obtain

You don't understand dota at all if you think dotards would want to play HoTS

The skill suggestions are based on heroes. It's the STIUTATIONAL meme.

like gulagites except discussion isn't drowning in autistic screeching

Fuck this shit, it is time to return back to HoN.

dont let the door hit you on the way out

I always thought letting coaches in ranked games was really bullshit, but this is next level.

>Artifact is a one time buy to play
>Dota2 players are paying monthly alimony to valve

so the exactly same as every f2p game that you losers claim is pay2win?

You'll have a complete breakdown of damage types and sources, available in real time whether you're a spectator trying to make sense of a brain-melting teamfight or a respawning player learning how to avoid a recurring fate.

might unironically go back to league

Who is going to build most retarded shit just to ruin dota+ suggestions to fight against Valve infinite greed?

Attached: EEF9jcl.gif (425x481, 1.51M)

league is only considered f2p if you dont value your time at all

this is the one thing ive been thinking about

if enough people blindly follow what the guides say then eventually its going to be data against data and data driving data - which ends up in a weird meme spiral

kind of how the financial markets work where you have HFT memes competing against eachother and one of them going haywire sending the markets spiraling

artifact will require buying cards on the market, duno where you got the idea it would not be like any other TCG

it's literally just a card market simulator for steam marketplace, the game looks like shit

post yfw a month later stats show plus players skew lower mmr and have a worse winrate

Time to keep a careful watch on that poster count, user-dotard-kuns, let's see how many of the autistic screechers start samefagging.

Why do you guys always hivemind to the most negative mentality almost immediately?

Like I get that it's primarily how Veeky Forums has always operated, but do you ever think for yourselves or is it just an incessant want for other things to fail because your own lives are so shitty?
