What the FUCK is Gaben smoking

There are people who still care about Dota 2?

Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

milking dota because valve want deadlock to usurp it

>casters are fucking boring
This game became so ass I can't. Everything went shit after they skipped TI in 2020. Fuck Valve bunch of lazy retards.

These look fine, what's the problem?

>>725503621
It just came out of nowhere
I can't decide if Valve paid Capcom or the reverse

>>725503621
Anyone who plays dota for the mtx is among the bottom 50% of IQ on earth.
Valve consistently shits out mtx focused patches. Even said in a news post that "data suggests this is what the players want"

Dota2 is ruined by this population. I wish I could go back.

Kirin armor make my pp feel funny

>>725496268 (OP)
>uninstall dota and been free for months
>friends still play it, actively excited for this

I don't want to go back, but god do I hate feeling like the odd man out.

He's a businessman, selling skins to retards is just good business.

Mireska wedding dress arcana when

>no Jakiro, Auroth, Viper, Phoenix, Visage, Primal Beast sets
boooooo

>>725496268 (OP)
is this not just capcom trying to remind people that monster hunter exists after everyone forgot about wilds

I think back to 2007 when I said I hope Monster Hunter is as popular as COD is one day and that really was a monkey's paw moment...fuck I am sorry guys I feel like this is my fault.

>>725505681
god i love sorapoi's art
i want 2 fug mireska

>>725506131
I feel like they should want people to forget about monster hunter until they have a good game ready so they aren't just reminding them how shit wilds is

>>725496268 (OP)
Dota finally got sold out properly with cosmetics. If it means we get stuff that is better than the generic rice paddy hats and wizard hats most shitty designers come up with then it isn't so bad. A bit sad but we've been headed in this direction for quite some time.
Maybe it gets some more people playing.

Crossovers id like to see: Street fighter, some arpg's or RTS'. That shit never gets representation.
We already had the total war warhammer sets. Surprised they never tried that again.

The event itself is pretty cool

Let me know when they unfuck techies and meepo. I should be allowed to stack mines AND make them slowly creep toward the enemy base.

You're lucky he's enough of a waifufag to keep drawing her consistently, his fotm game stuff gets way more traction

Warhammer Fantasy had been dead as a setting for a while

>>725496268 (OP)
This is the third thread.
Capcom wants more eyes on MH since Wilds wasn't received so well and Valve will do crossovers with anyone (two weapons in TF2 are from fucking Rift; not cosmetics, actual unique weapons). Dota 2 is popular with...someone apparently (communists who can't afford food or good games?) and the aesthetic fits Dota. They were also probably eager to have something to push out since TI went by and there was no new hero teaser and they only had a letter patch to give players (a letter patch that looks like it was made by someone who hadn't played Dota in 6 months).

Dota is one of Gaben's most played games and he enjoys Sandking.

Would not surprise me if he also enjoys Monster Hunter since it became a PC title, and wants his favorite games to collab.

Now put Roshan in Wilds

ok but where's the Nier Automata collab

>>725506790
They did the promo for total warhammer 2 and did nothing for game 3. and old world is just a reworking of fantasy

>>725505681
mtx are just an extra incentive to play the worlds greatest game that happens to have the shittiest community.

>>725507358
Its not extra incentive for 90 % of the playerbase. Its the only incentive. They will queue matches just to see their mtx and others. They will queue RANKED just to have a higher chance at being carried for the wins required for mtx.
Its no short sighted assumption to say that mtx has ruined dota. The game has become functionally unplayable for solos.

The SEA monkey nigger population has gotten out of control.

>>725507924
i play mostly only for mmr which is in total shambles.

>>725507924
Source? your ass? dotas always been shit for solos.
Whats a valid reason to play the game? MMR gain? vapid and ultimately unfulling. Fun? unreliable.

>>725509158
dota wasnt always shit for solos because the playerbase wasnt always shit.
When you have 9 players who are all there just to fuck around and get their first kill on a hero and then throw, there are no coms, no plays, and no effort.
Worthless garbage versus worthless trash. All it would take to win 100% of matches is a full team giving a shit.

Back in the good ol days (my source is being older than (you)) there was very little mtx. What did exist was almost entirely walled behind paid key boxes.
Players that were actually playing the game cared about the game as there was no other reason to play. You could have 5 solos in a team and theyd play better than most if not all 4 man parties today.

>>725506131
Its a fucking weird move for Capcom. For one thing its Dota and not LoL.

>>725496268 (OP)
Who is the rathalos hunter?

>>725507018
Itd sure as shit be better than the fucking final fantasy spider tank

>>725506579
They need to sell the expansion somehow

>>725506918
one thing thats always put me off playing dota is just how tiny and inconsequential everything feels
roshan is supposed to be a huge powerful immortal boss nigga but he's barely twice the size of tinker even without debuffs
it just doesnt feel very impactful? idk
compare it to how huge baron and rift herald are in league of legends and how the map reacts to you killing it
even the shitty drakes that they remake every 2-3 years feel more substantial than roshan

I don't want mobaslop in my MH though

>>725501918
>same patch for 4 years already
Elaborate? I googled "dota2 same patch" and saw a reddit thread of someone claiming the game has been the same for two years (and of course the reddit dota fans seethed and took grumpy dumpies all over the place). I'm just curious as someone who quit playing like ten years ago

people are still playing this instead of deadlock?

>>725512902
no one plays deadtroon

>>725512902
Get rid of the moba creeps and the bosses and streamline the economy around killing dudes and length of time in the match and I'm fucking in. I'm not playing shittier third person shooter dota

>>725510000
I was playing before cosmetics were in the game. There were always shit uncooperative players.

>>725511601
>barely twice

>>725513252
Seconding, haven't played in forever but my memories were that 90% of the games just kinda sucked because of people going out of their way to fuck things up

>>725496268 (OP)
>this will make (japanese) people play our moba!

>>725496268 (OP)
It's good if only because AM (with tits) gets a Kirin outfit, and WR gets a Zyogre outfit. Fuck paying for the pass though, since you can get both skins for free with basically zero effort.

>>725513329

compensating for something?

>>725501918
I'll give most of these but
>no battlepass because some excuses
Fuck battlepasses and fuck having to pay 400 bucks for an arcana or miss it forever driving insane FOMO. That shit can stay fucking gone.

>>725505681
>Valve consistently shits out mtx focused patches
You say that as if we get anything but skins for the same 15 characters because valve only takes workshop stuff and workshop niggers only care about pudge and waifu characters.
>Pudge
>Invoker
>luna
>mirana
>Wei
>Crystal maiden
>Rubik
>Phantom assassin
>Marci
That's it 90% of the time and then you get a smattering of stuff like Broodmother or Tusk every now and then.
