Nuke Israel

TURBO CHAD REPLIES ONLY

Anyone else I should add to the ban list?

you're supposed to rush shard on Rubick? right? or was that just an autistic thing that Rain would do?

I'm trying to find a comparison of league ranks and their dota counterparts, but all the data is pretty old.
What is the "average" rank in Dota, where the most of the playerbase sits?

tell me bros - what do match ratings when you find a game mean? shit like (perfect) or (fair) (moderate)
I can see it says skill balance, but what does it mean exactly? How does one determine if the shitter/ancient stack is on my team, or the enemy team? I find matchups like that very favorable when I'm playing against it - the lower rank guy feeds a lot

>>527757930
Archon/legend

>>527757930
>What is the "average" rank in Dota, where the most of the playerbase sits?
out of herald, guardian, crusader, archon, legend, ancient, divine, immortal most players are in archon

>>527758293
>>527758391
fuuuck I was hoping that it's going to be crusader... still a long way to go for me to leave the shitter ranks

>>527758524
archon is also considered as a shitter bracket. what you want to do is reach ancient

>>527758524
Shitter bracket ends at 8.5k mmr

>>527758620
yeah I'm Archon rn, I think I'm going to reach Legend fairly soon but hoped that it's already above average

Is there another support hero that's fun like rubick?

Shitter bracket ends at 15k mmr.

>>527758851
so fun OR like rubick?

>>527758851
if you want to be an annoying nigger like rubick play disruptor

kurobros.... we're doing it

climbing as a support is SO much easier man, I love playing the farming roles but the literal subhumans you get as supports make it an unpleasurable experience

>shadow shaman has been in 45% of TI Qualifiers
defend this dotards

>>527759572
LMAO

bros, as a support, I try to hit any dying enemy hero at least once so I get an assist and the assist money. Is it bad, or good? Am I stealing shared gold from my teammates, or do they still get the same amount?

>>527762976
U should be taking the kill since most of the time it's going to be useless on the cores you meet in ranked all the way up till immortal

what mid laners should I be picking if I hate buying bottle?

>>527763240
od
arc warden

>>527762976
who gives a fuck they flash farm the jungle.

is glimmer the only cheap save item?

The event is coming, I can feel it

>>527761657
uhm if he's so strong why don't pro players just ban it lol

LOL

ngl, i really like that Khanda does Break now

>>527765432
it's a pretty shit item, not scaling on attack damage anymore.

>>527765561
oh i didnt even realize that, i just play support so i dont think about attack damage a lot

>>527765650
>buying khanda
>"support"

>lose streak with Axe
>Pick Pugna
>Win

>>527765971
Yeah, it was late game and no one bought a Break item, so I bought one

uhh nigma doubters?

>>527766907
I am starting to hope, which means despair is sure to arrive soon.

Did 33 evacuate? Tkd is upon us.

allah will guide him

i hate that the space bar doesnt close the shop anymore

haven't played this shit game in years, have they added Gambler yet or nah

>either og or nigma will 100% go to TI
epic!!!

behead those who insult allah

>>527762442
whats so funny?
>disruptor's thunder strike leads is a free harassing ability in lane just like fade bolt
>telekinesis and glimpse are both displacement abilities
>static storm is used to cuck the enemy team during fights much like stolen spell

>>527761139
No its not because the retarded faggot you have been coddling for 25 minutes decides to be superman and 1v5 and you lose again

man dota peaked at around ti 5 to ti 9. now its just souless russians and shitty patches with mega powercreep and brawllllllll

>>527769373
>dota peaked in deathball brool era

>>527769373
17 18 and 19 were the peak and then 2020 was the crash from which dota will never recover which is obvious since even the devs dont pretend to care at all

>>527769908
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYyF4jqsnKc&ab_channel=Yep

this was peak

>>527770215

I don't even care about esports but you can literally describe every single competition ever with this description

>>527782182
>>527774765
this, why even play dota, just play single player like the sims or some shit

>>527782182
a competition which you aren't a part while closely following what's happening, yeah, that was my point?

>>527782592
not sure if trolling or just retarded

Anyone know a good mid coach?
I can drop like 10 $ for an hour

>>527784625
https://bsjdota.com/

>>527784723
BSJ is expensive and also I am not sure if he'd provide waht I want, assuming his coaching is similar to his youtube videos
The last guy I hired told me exactly waht I was doing wrong in lane, asked me why I was doing what I was doing, then told me what I should be focusing on and we had this back and forth where he course corrected me and I shot up 5 ranks in a week just off that one session

Vore hero when?

>>527785252

>>527783315
this normalfag cope feels so surreal to me, is it just a natural reaction to being called out?

>>527785112
then just hire that guy again

>>527786525
trying to get through to him but he stopped coaching like 3 years ago

>>527786426

kek anon you need to grow up from your edgy teen phase

>>527787093
>what do you mean it's not normal for someone to get invested in other people competing with each other while being mediocre at best themselves and not improving at it? you are a fucking loser!
just stop responding to me, you clearly aren't white. A whigger at best

>>527782065
lol
lmao

>>527787093
this would work if half of the sports fans were not subhuman tribesmen that hate the guy that happens to have a different jersey

>>527787469
What are your thoughts on bear necessities Lone Druid?

>>527787469
>ugh stupid sportheads dont they understand they gain norhing from caring about sports? lmao why arent they smart like me

>>527787848
Except the criticism is coming from a subhuman dota player that hates the guy that happens to be on his team whenever he's losing.

>>527788037
It sucks
I have a 4 digit mmr btw

>4 games in a row people just queued as support then pick carry to "support"
>they had zero impact after laning phase cause their kits aren't for supporting
the sad thing is when I play unranked people rarely do this shit

>>527789041
just wait 60 minute saar I will be carrying you bastard!

>>527789794
ty dotard I know I can count on you

>>527784723
5 sessions for 575$ LOL who does this nigga think he is a TI winner

>>527786402
stay strong my nigga dont let your lust win

>>527788214
no you stupid brown subhuman, the people doing shit are fine, subhumans who watch something instead of playing dota, football or whatever are nigger-tier goyim, just like you just showed us with your excellent reading comprehension

>>527789041
it's because they're trying shit out 99% of time and if they pick that shit in unranked, then the other players will make them play as the orthodox role for the hero they picked

>>527785112
I was just joking but seeing that you gave me a serious answer I am curious
how much mmr do you have?

>>527790169
>excellent reading comprehension
Something you clearly lack you fucking retarded nigger

>>527790338
explain

manta style illusions on venomancer get full poison sting damage, that's pretty insane honestly

any other manta cheese that you don't see much, like sniper and techies I'm surprised you don't see more manta sniping of towers and stuff

>>527790169
seethe

>>527790787
are you still triple digit mmr?

>>527790787
Did you know anti mage's manta illusions get his mana break? It's pretty good!

>>527790239
welp I hope the report works
it's just a waste of time for the rest of the team when people decide to do this shit then unable to pull it off

How's sniper since the reddit change on E?

>>527790327
3500

nigma

>>527790864
I'm uncalibrated but most of my matches are in guardian

>>527790983
I've never used antimage, not really my style but that's cool buddy

Ligmabros..

>>527791357
on that mmr you can probably get enough knowledge just from the words of mouth and watching other people play
I suggest tuning in streams of Quixotix or zzAdrian, they aren't the best players out there but their streams tend to have small views (like 100 or so people) and often answer every post made. Quixotix also offers replay reviews for free like once a week

come watch @arteezy

>>527793529
Watch what he is washed.

>>527793529
Someone post it.

>>527793529

nigma haters?

>>527790864
Couldn't be me

is he really not changing batteries on the smoke detector?

>>527791880
Doesn't work anymore. I need someone to put their brain in my brain, so I'm paypigging.

but why

how the fuck does ai know about this general lol

>>527797404
AIs are connected to internet nowadays.

so since my last point stays undisputed, how is watching esports instead of actually playing the game yourself any different to being a cuckold?

how the f does it know about regen changees???

wtf is going on

>>527790169
Why is playing dota any better than watching it?

>>527797652
does doing both break your brain or something?

>>527797652
there are people with tens of thousands of hours that are hardstuck in herald because they have the very same take

>>527797404
>>527797693
Copilot is stupid glorified chatbot like most "Artificial Intelligence"
It tells me the latest patch is 7.38c and current is 7.39b.

>>527756914
no that's for the 7.42 event

>>527798597
It wasn't released on May 30th either, it was released on May 29th.

>>527798281
If you search with bing "dota patch", the very first result is "7.38c" on dota2.com. If you click it, it just takes you to 7.38b patch notes. Thats probably what's confusing it.

>>527798810
>takes you to 7.39b
Fixed. typo.

All AI chatbots got kez info wrong on skills when i asked them, lmao.
so much for intelligence.

>>527797652
nobody is fucking my girlfriend or wife because they won the qualifier

does that answer your question

>>527801885
ntr hentai is hot though

>>527798152
how exactly would you do both? if you watch and play at the exact same time then you aren't invested in either of these things and unless you are eating/going to sleep and laying with your phone I don't see why you would ever watch a match instead of just playing it yourself

>>527802443
if you aren't a professional bodybuilder then you can't go to the gym and lift weights

if you have a job you aren't allowed to play dota

this is the logic, apparently

>>527802443
>why would you watch a match?
>except when you're doing something I can see why you'd watch a match
amazing.

>>527804140

Massive pause on that shit

>>527806694
you cared enough to reply and these normalfags (probably just 1 nigger) did too. I just wish you "people" went back to r*ddit

>>527809660
you're actually a cuck right now because you're arguing with us right now not playing dota, you're multitasking which is why your wife is being fucked right now

>>527755416
og is shit now but no way nigma wins this year

>>527758851
treant is being rly fun, undy too

>>527768302
yeah hes strong go play

>>527752297 (OP)
is it worth it to play with 200ms ping instead of playing on SA? 3k bracket but almost 4k

How does bkb work against bloodthorn, I was testing it in demo mode and it seemed like it was still working, doing the extra damage from all my plague wards attacking

>>527810807
>replying every so often when I'm dead/in queue is somehow comparable to watching a full pro game
do you ever think about something before typing it? oh who am I kidding, you are just a drooling normalfag acting on his feelings, too busy consooming your slop to actually use your fucking brain

>>527813354
stay on your designated shitting street.

>>527814272
im climbing anyways, just playing pos 1 with all muted eventually ill have to move to eu since there are no sa players above 7-8k

>>527813354
I like how nobody is drawing the base wind model anymore

>>527814928
nobody is drawing dota anymore, game died during the pandemic for real.

>>527814928
new one is just cuter, old has a downie face and is also super low quality

>>527815278
I think the old design is cuter but the new one looks more mature and overall represents the hero better
the drow arcana is pure ass though (in terms of fitting in at least)

>all young pro talent is russia + ukraine
why swedes don't play dota anymore? finns? danes? where are white people?

Wake up dotards, new deadlock patch dropped.

>>527815895
Slavs are the only actual White people, westcucks willingly gave their own countries up to the judeo-globalist establishment. They are too busy fending off shitskins trying to break into their houses or fighting a culture war on twitter

>>527816474
lol i hope for valve sake deadlock turns around as much as i liked the game its just isnt dota 2

>>527814928
Shame

mobas and fps just don't go well together, the first or the third person view, while adding the mechanic of actually aiming, limit what you can put into the game as the player can only interact with the enemies/teammates he is currently aiming at. 3D mobas seem like a cool idea but there is a reason that they are dead, the isometric view makes the game an actual strategy

>>527816474
I'll check out the mid changes but it's mostly just balance changes.
curious what the mid boss sewer theme is.

radiance manta shiva venomancer

seems like a fun meme, does it make you mad just hearing it uttered now

How do you play Kez

>>527821958
seek assistance for your mental dysfunction.

>>527822396
Overdose on adderall

>>527822468
why, venomancer illusions get poison sting, send out the boys and they put 2 debuffs on people, your plague wards with level 25 talent do 90 septic shock damage to people when all the debuffs are on

it's a fun troll, I think I'll try it, but blood thorn is probably better

>>527822838
with the venomous gale added on the plague wards are doing 118 septic shock damage with the illusion debuffs

if that isn't fun I don't know what is

>>527821958
Get parasma

>>527823143
illusions can't apply that debuff, but they can apply radiance and shiva, and ac

>>527823430
Hit them yourself

>>527823567
it's good but blood thorn and having 5 wards hitting someone plus your 2 illusions is better

the radiance shiva illusion spam is probably funnier though

>>527823657
Parasma is 2 debuffs and amps magic damage, which amps the septic shock damage

>>527823759
I just tested it along with everything else I've mentioned, bloodthorn damage with all your wards hitting is better and safer

with parasma you have to go within 600 range to attack, the magic resist reduction isn't as good as bloodthorn and the added magic damage to wards

I tried it, and wasn't really that impressed, I'm not saying it's bad at all, but I think bloodthorn is better

sends a 50% magic resist to like 40% not really worth

also bloodthorn counters evasion spam and makes all your wards get true strike on them, which is huge

did they change sniper's take aim? it no longer provides passive attack range?

You can't get knowledged checked when people playing this game are literal subhumans who follow torte de lini guides even after 7000 hours.

why do my dumbshit faggot hard supports keep picking windranger

>>527828460
She's hot

>>527828460
Too many retards with a poor grasp on fundamentals thinking that they're Saksa or 9class. Many such cases.

scepter is so good on viper, having an ench with double damage sneak up on you farming neutrals, viper strike, sit in the toxin, manfight to death

chaos knight accustomed to the normal faggot poison burst viper, thinks he can manfight me 1vs1 with no illusions, but wait, you have 128 attack speed slow, + nethertoxin -60 attack speed slow, so you can't do shit buddy, and you're taking 108 dot+poison shot, viper bros are feasting as always

and I'm healing all the magic spam damage I'm doing while just standing here with a voodoo mask, yes

I don't understand mage slayer on viper, it is fluoridated garbage

you already have like 50 magic resist with corrosive skin, are you larping as support viper, why is this item popular on him I cannot understand it

any reason you come up with will be cope

Is Ashley the most based high ranked Dota player?

>>527832549
Mana regen and makes your more tanky, also lowers the damage of the enemy team?

>>527832871
you already have 50% magic resist at level 20, you would do much more damage with rev broach, and you get lifesteal off all your magic spam

it's totally redundant you already destroy mages if they're dumb enough to get close to you, caustic bath moreso because they're taking 108 corrosive skin damage from any range if they touch you with a speck of magic damage

besides arcane boots is cheaper, and you need boots anyways

I think there is a fundamental divide between the caustic bath, superior facet in every way, vs the poison shot facet spammers, and their understanding of the character's strengths

>>527833313
oh yea and caustic bath gives you extra magic resist for standing in toxin, double redundant, I forgot about that

>all these reddit spacing posts
didn't read

>>527833737
nooo nooo NOOOO!

when I put in 10 years of gametime to catch up to you I'm sure I'll be perfectly content with my rank

>>527790787
wasnt there some sort of manta cheese with batrider where he would do insane autoattack damage with manta illusions, I never got on that because i don't play batrider. that kind of thing allows him to be played at any position or something, almost like when puck also had something like a broken level 15 talent and was also played at any position

>>527834956
yes pretty sure it was played in a tournament recently mid

Coffee, cheetos, chicken.

>>527834956
the illusions don't apply napalm, but they do the smouldering resin thing

seems alright, tried it against a clockwork with heart of tarrasque and ac and it takes him down to 500 health over the 18 seconds of illusion

most players won't use such a high regen item though so I could see it doing more

items broach, pike, manta, mljonir 2 moonshards

>>527837886
if you use flame break from 1300 range and apply 4 stacks of napalm at a time it probably kills faster

okay so i'm asking again what happened to medusa offlane undulate
it's still strong, right? literally only stuns can kill you

>>527826020
They are low rank because they fail many kinds of knowledge checks every 5 seconds for shit like game awareness, objectives, etc. If you're competent, there's nothing they can do/know that you can't outplay by not being a retard.

>support venge
>tranquils -> scepter -> butterfly -> hurricane pike
thoughts on his build order?

>>527840286
I mean if you can somehow secure your scepter fast, sure.

>>527840286
>aghs rush on a support just to feed double the gold
Get a fucking blink you moron.

>>527840286
i always feel like scepter is just too greedy on support venge, i miss when her aghs was inherent to her already

>>527840286
If you're going butterfly and pike on "support" Why not just go power boots, you can swap it to strength for more max hp

It was a forced loss, impossible to win with such huge fucking retards.

>>527854203
Yeah, it was over the moment you picked AM. Those poor teammates.

Dropping the ego and learning the game was the way all along wasted 5k+ hours before learning the game and becoming immortal

>>527854653
Yeah, my fault that my team fed and lost the early game. what was a i thinking, picking a position 1 hero, silly me.

>>527854913

>repeat like 200 times
I'm starting to develop impostor syndrome even though I'm enjoying the free MMR. Don't feel like I *really* earned the wins.

My dotabuff is starting to look like a mid player's though, which is amusing.

>>527862602
sometimes it's okay to lose lane if it means you are making space for your teammates and they can win the game for you as a result

i always consider dying in a teamfight a win if only i die and the enemy team uses all their ults on me and then they get wiped. that's almost never factored in but it is absolutely a factor.

Why is some retard getting butthurt about people shoving lanes instead of brawling for no gain? Literally every pro game I watch they're shoving the lanes in

>this dota 2 player found a teaser about the next event

No, there are people who still enjoy it so I can respect their determination. But I just find it funny how google is recommending me those silly articles about NS "guessing" when the event will drop or NS thinking of ways to fix the matchmaking.

>good stats too

I have made it into legend by only playing pos4/5, never really cared about ranked play until a month ago. Might aim for Ancient I dunno.
What frustrates me a little is that most people don't know how to draft for shit, they knowingly ignore cores with disables even if the first 3 picks were no-disable picks then we go into a game without any disables and usually lose that one.

>>527869651
wouldn't that delay your blink+aghs timings further? doom can get away with it probably because you can just sell it off to get 'em but SF might need some experimentation for item timings.
Glepnir is nice though, people under-value it.

>>527870492
Yeah that never stops, people will pick heroes they are comfortable with regardless of whether it fits in the draft

I just wanted to say that as bad as dota is now there's still some soul. The sound effect when Undying instantly respawns is pure kino

>can build glepnir instead since it also pops linkens
What the actual fuck?

>>527870703
yeah it would, hence why I think people haven't tried it yet, but I wanna try it out in a real game
>>527879251
yes because atos is a component (blocked by linkens)
it has been like this for a while

>>527879789
Well I started playing only in 2025 but it's kinda shocking to me, since Linkens only blocks targeting abilities and Gleipnir struck me as non-targeting. So there's an actual counter to mass linkens spam that sometimes happens.

>>527869651
Gleipnir is a very underrated item after the rework, it's still very strong on certain heroes
Magnus gleipnir

I haven't played doto since last summer. After coming back I've been playing the Nest of Thorns minigame for two weeks now, even though I've never liked vampire-like games. I reached the final level and bought 80% of the upgrades. I'm really surprised by the balance. I like almost all the abilities. The ones I thought were weak or unusable (like the dagger throw or centaur dash) started shining as I progressed. The only one I can't wrap my head around is Pudge's ability, it feels completely unusable.

So, when are we getting a porn version of this minigame on Unity with art from Sorapoi or anyone else?

sorry anon but boots of speed stays on during sex

>od's innate has a randomized name
There's still some soul in this game

This is all based theory crafting btw, but manta venomancer plays like sniper, it's actually a funny troll, especially with scepter radiance Shiva/bloodthorn

I would have tried it last night but a teammate picked it and I was forced to rape with viper

Actual theory crafting: gleipnir magnus

>>527895246
Not even trying, core mid venomancer with scepter, manta, radiance, bloodthorn is giga brained cheese

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YbD7I6kOZg

>>527869651
thanks for this. I've been buying Eul's on LC to cope with Linken's to get my Duels off. just bought Atos | Gleipnir this game and it was much better.

>>527896523
go force staff
better stats than eul's and an actual good utility that doesn't gimp you for using it

>>527896610
I don't benefit from Pike though.

How you even counter this retarded bullshit?

>>527896982
doesn't matter, force staff is a cheap and efficient item and I believe it's the cheapest linkens breaker in the game (unless urn works but you typically don't build that in the game)
more mobility is always good, gleipnir doesn't really synergize with legion at all

>>527897203
Overwhelming odds, push the attack are both aoe, and rooting people makes getting a duel much easier

>>527896996
Shadow blade gank, or blink

>>527896996
Squee scope techies and mines everywhere so he cant gank you

>>527896610
>>527897203
>Force Staff on LC
Retard.

>>527897203
yes, it does matter. Force is antithetical to LC.
>they're running away
>Force shoves them away if Linken's is broken
>now you can't duel
or
>Blink + Pike
>you're now 600 units away regardless of Linken's status, but 1200 if Linken's is already broken
>you can't Duel

>>527887563
Can hardly blame him for it, he literally draws one fucking character

>>527897823
you are meant to initiate or lock on a target with the hero, just keep a track of his linkens
>>527897412
a talent that people don't pick and an aoe on a spell you only use for attack speed doesn't really justify it

>>527898164

and the scenarios where they cast it on somebody else? or fight has dragged on long enough that you're chasing down the last 1-2 people as they try to juke through the jungle? or there was an encounter where people tossed a few spells but didn't commit, then a 10-20 second delay before the real fight starts?

>>527896523
np bro i didn't see people do it so I just guessed people didn't think about it

Recommend me some supports similar to Warlock. Where you can sit comfortably behind and throw some big impactful spells.

>>527899412
yeah I had forgotten it was a Linken's breaker. I was just thinking Halberd Force and Eul's.

>>527901535
>>527902105
in such low mmr brackets you solo carry games by going a stompy hero like ursa and necro
disregard your teammates, hit your strong item timings and just waltz all over them
Problem is for someone like you it probably wont work because you will just not hit your item timings because you are probably also terrible at the game. You see it for yourself how uncoordinated people are, you just gotta abuse that

>not solo carrying the game 30-0 like it's a bot match
you are right where you belong.

>>527904982
yeah I havent played for a while, I just remember that procs were usually the more recommended ones in guides
>inb4 he follows guides like dogma
>>527899162
I honestly hadn't realized that the mana cost had been reduced on top of the changed stats of gleipnir and wasn't considering naked atos to break linkens, might be the better option after all
the listed scenarios can be an issue regardless of what item you pick though

>>527906030
Spells > stats golem

>>527906353
I'm bear neccesities druid, caustic bath viper, mid veno main, I do the opposite of following guides but aoe press the attack is pretty good

The only valid argument is the dragon creep is so good

Everything else is a cope

Muh stun, muh root, the pigs really

Pigs aren't relevant late game, druid gets root on himself and the bear

Stun is decent but bn outstats you to death, most teams have stuns

>yet another dogshit centaur game
>>527905081
>because you are probably also terrible at the game
well I've started playing seriously like 2 months ago, about 600 hours so far. I think I can hit Legend and I got much better at the game but I still have a long way to go till I start hitting those meme timings everyone is talking about

>>527908809
>>yet another dogshit centaur game
Yes, that's centaur for you

>>527896996
You win before a support who can't farm hits 20k nw, same as core willow.

but seriously all this "muh timing" talks is a complete meme in low elo because everything is random, people just fuck around the map and the games tend to last 40-60 min. Also don't those timings rely on having your camps stacked? gl with that, moreover gl with getting any exp when your nigger support refuses to leave you alone. And even if everything went right early on, the other people on the team have no idea what they are doing so what does your item advantage actually do? Unless you play something that can force fights you can just continue farming and getting stronger, but you aren't going to end the game in under 30 minutes

>>527909876
>Also don't those timings rely on having your camps stacked?
Why would they? You just hit them later if you get less farm.

>>527910147
well sure but isn't the entire point of a timing to hit it asap? People here don't say "when you get your 1st item", they talk about timings, which means that the time is very important

>>527911732
Timing is when you get the item or hit a certain level, the sooner the better but regardless of when it happens it's your timing. It's just the end results of having higher gpm and xppm.

>>527911975
yes but "you gotta hit your X timing" means that you should strive to get this item at a certain minute of the game. It's just a weird thing to say

>>527912674
The timing is when you get the item, not the time you're supposed to get the item.

>>527899426

How do I keep up with damage as silencer? I am checking graphs and usually I am the first/second damage of my team until like 20 minutes then my graph goes just flat after that? I REALLY don't want to rush aghs because I feel like getting 2 support items with that gold usually feels better...

>>527913619
you need to be able to right click to scale your damage

>>527913619
Rush aghs support items are for cucks

>>527913619
>playing silencer
>not playing the silence facet
>not buying scepter
>not buying refresher
pick a different hero.

my matches have gone from all legend to a mixture of ancient and legend.
soon, bros. another promotion is in store for me.

>>527913619
Get your shard first, and right-click the enemy. Aghs doesn't do shit for damage.

On a BAD game, you should getting like +60 INT, and on a good game, you should be hitting +100. That extra INT *really* makes a difference per-hit because it's not just +60-100 damage per right-click but also extra Pure damage on top of that.

>>527907608
>The only valid argument is the dragon creep is so good
The golem creep literally gives like +20% (I think more) HP to the entire team.

>>527915443
>right-click the enemy
>as silencer
Do you play against bots or something

wew lads, I finally 100%'d Crownfall.

I didn't think I'd finish until I tediously grinded out all the lv 5 upgrades but I didn't need most of them. Just have Cooldown Reduction, XP Multiplier, and Rerolls at lv 5 and I didn't even use all the rerolls (had 3 left so I didn't even need lv 5). Just decided to try a couple rounds of Echelon 8 instead of grinding coins at Echelon 6, and got it first try.

Had the choice between Spirits and Track at lv 2 and I figured since I wasn't really trying, I would skip greeding for double items and just play it straight since I never needed Aghs Track to beat Echelon 7 in the first place. Turns out you don't need it for Echelon 8 either!

>>527916942
I can still do the mario party board? I thought I couldn't earn tokens anymore?

>>527917201

>>527917201
No you can't unlock event nodes if that's what you're asking. I just wanted to finish Echelon 8 at least once in my life.

Does playing this Vampire Survivor minigame reward you in anyway if you beat the higher levels? (or reach them or whatever, haven't played it, no idea what it is)

but his base armour is 0.5, as stated here

>>527927641
from this to...

Damn, I actually thought they did something...

I really wanted to stick by the money bags facet for Nature's Prophet but man, the healing radius is really good. The heal itself is pitifully worthless but seeing half the screen turn green so you can't miss the heal on spastic teammates is nice.

Small treants are still not great for ratting though. I miss the giga treant...

>>528034640
just disconnect so your team can pause :)

A little bit annoying that quite a few healing interactions don't actually count for healing in the post-match screen. i.e. slark shard, naix infesting ally heroes

>>528030014
Every cast is 200 health to basically every teammate in the area on an 8 second cooldown, the heal racks up

why 2 points in LSA specifically? and not 1

>>528034893
since its not technically healing it makes sense from a programming perspective. i agree though, i always think seeing niche stats like that is fun and i wish they could implement it

>>528034893
why? the numbers are meaningless

>>528059367
TRUST THE PLAN

>>527832871
>>527832549
previous mage slayer build up was better however it is still good now, with mageslayer you get like 62% magic resist, not including the further 40% magic spell damage reduction as well as pure and physical spell damage reduction from the debuff itself - it crushes bristleback flat if you dont manage to kill him during viper strike or if its on cd

>>528055047
Surely not. Being able to apply an armor debuff to multiple heroes has good team potential, no?

>>527906692
i dislike caustic bath because there are a lot of times where you want to be kiting so sitting in nethertoxin isnt really ideal, plus quite often in the early game the extra burst from poison attack damage can be enough to get a kill where you werent able to get an extra attack off

>>528060219

How much mmr have you earned?

muerta was meta like 2 months ago and picked all the time by the pros, what happened, every time I face a muerta I lose basically, I would start playing this char but it's one of my bans because it counters half my mains/ all of my mains

what happened, was the respawn ofrenda facet that good

it's like a support and becomes a carry with no effort

>>528066047
She was a played as a support hero and she got nerfed, ofrenda was only used by euthanizers that wanted to maximize their deaths per minute. Her new facet is much better for carry and I occasionally see her as a carry now but she needs way too much farm to come online

>>528065279
zero lmao

>>528069513
Maybe you should play another role

>>528066047
She's a support but every time pros start using her like a carry, she gets nerfed. They try to force it, lose 10-20 games, swap her to support, lose 10-20 more games, and then they stop. Then she gets a buff months later which gets public interest, and the cycle begins anew.

Muerta is still a popular pub pick because everybody wants to be the ricing ranged carry with double attack + FREE "invincibility". She is easily shut down as a carry if you actually coordinate and plan to kill her instead of unga bunga'ing down mid and hoping you'll live long enough to kill her. But pubs don't do that so the retards get rewarded for existing.

+200 HP is nice but it's also at lv 7, not the first 10 mins when an extra Tango or two would be immense. It's nice to have as a bonus but not as a main feature.

Also kind of feels weird to fire it into the trees constantly so I can get some shitty healing on a teammate. I can't always be in range of an enemy to apply chip damage to them either. Maybe I'll get used to it over time. But really, I just want to go back to money bags.

>>528087720
I do not interact with any of the website features other than clicking on a stream to watch.

>>528060991
playing support at lower ranks is a literal humiliation ritual, you'll have wards everywhere and your cores have literally zero map awareness to not die to 4 people ganking by missing from the map for an entire minute

>>528088719
and yet you dont use livestreamer

>>528088821
what is it? a quick search returns some vlc script.

>>528088991

>>528090825

they always come back

>support sits in your lane doing nothing but soaking exp
>likely feeds your lane too
>they get priority on wisdom runes for some reason
>they outlevel you
why is this meta?

>>528091620
if a support out levels you as a core something is wrong even with wisdom rune

>>528091787
Yeah, usually it's because you're laning 1v2 by yourself and getting shit on by the enemy while the support just sits there and watches. So they get to stay in lane and in exp range longer than you.

>>528091787
must be nice to be in a mmr where the pos4 doesn't just sit in the trees jacking off while you lane 1v2.

so I tried muerta and it was pretty strong as support, felt like a carry and I built carry, basically but I warded all game, saved my team from pudge

does a lot of damage with few items, like rushing rev broach

main problem was riki one shotting me, and now I see why linkens is popular on her, could have negated so many hooks

if you can see the enemies you can melt everyone basically, underrated imo now

there is def no lack of farm ability on this char as support

>>528095061
Nigger the hero farms like shit as carry, how low mmr are you to think it farms well as support?

>>528095886
I'm guessing it's the kid who gets 30 / 80 last hits in solo mid and thinks it's great.

>>528059367
What delusional retards think there's going to be an actual battlepass? Valve said a couple years ago they aren't doing battlepasses anymore. All you're getting for TI is the compendium with a bunch of stickers and voicelines.

>>528070648

>my pos 5 Io builds first item aghs kaya sange
>literally has no clue how to play his hero
Great. I love lossing mmr because of brown people shitting up everything. What a mistake it was trying to civilize these subhumans.

>>528094697
If I don't think my support is serious about being a support I will pick pos3 treant and euthanize the game before it even begins.

>>528095886
I played support though and had more than enough gold to be fully kitted and I would have had ags blessing but we won

Muerta basically builds carry no matter what, it's an attacker with good spells

>>528096238
I've never said that I was great at last hitting just that I've discovered high viability of a few builds that are unpopular, I guess that comes with a fresh set of eyes on the game and not being brainrotted and mentally broken though

Also what is a solo mid, on my literal first game playing sniper I didn't mvp, the horror, but i did on drow and a few other heroes as well

>>528088769
>>528103421
you can climb easy as support all the way to Divine
it's less about kills and more about game knowledge and positioning and a million other things than getting kills

>>528106534
well yes I know you can climb
I think i made it all the way to 4k from 3k being just a selfless support
but i dropped back down to 2k
it went down to me becoming a relatively worse team player and being more selfish.
