>get disruptor on my team
>5k games
>okay should be pretty ez
>mfw this faggot gets literally every fucking item except for aghs
>oct core, refresher, gleipnir, drum boots
>ping 5000 times to buy a fucking scepter
>literally 7th item

bro how are these niggers this fucking stupid. it's literally the most broken shit in the game.

>>532705130
how dogshit are you that your pos5 can get 7 slotted before the game ends?

>>532705573
it was a turbo match that went to 40m because of a smurf puck and our sky being braindead. and a useless disruptor.

pudge got double picked 5th game in a row ffs I wanna play offlane pudge its fun.

>>532706304
if you want to play pudge and it gets picked first, just play aa and laugh at him as he dies to ult

Marci!

>>532707481

I wish marci would beat me but not too hard, just enough for it to feel next day.

Any US west anons want to play and be friends?

>>532711230
only if you're a single female(female).

>>532712508
im a man

>block bots using avoid feature
>literally so many fucking bots they fall off and loop back around

why even have a fucking block button if it's not infinite? what the fuck logic is that?

>>532714674
maybe you're the bot.

How to play mid willow into qop?
>inb4 don't play willow mid

>>532715760
lol pretty much playing a cheese pick mid against arguably the best hero in the game

>>532716318
Are you saying it's hopeless?

Dumb bitch just ended up chain feeding her advantage away anyway, but I thought for sure I was getting 4x reported at the 10 minute mark.

>>532716318
>arguably
>le two nukes and dot hero

is slardar absolute dogshit or it is just me?

>>532712508
No non-slav females play this game. Don't be ridiculous.

>>532722556
I think it's just you (and me as well, can't for the life of me win with him anymore). The stats say he's pretty strong.

>>532722556
>>532723450
>built in chase, stun, stun again, damage amp (might be the best)
>LE I CANT GET THROUGH MY LE LANING PHASE

I'm sure people just don't understand how strong brewmaster offlane is. 123th picked in pubs, 49% overall winrate but its pushed down by people who don't use bear spells.

>>532724719
he ebb and flows, a few patches ago he was all the rage then tanky cores overtook the meta and he fell off. ranged cores are more the thing now and he's sorta back but most people lag behind because top end MMR games are not easily viewable

>>532724661
ok but seriously how do I win lanes? it's the worst part of my game.

>>532724719
>micro multiple units
miss me with that shit. I just want to pick Sniper and A+click the ground.

I went 50-50 today and I did not carry or anticarry any of my games today. I was a literal NPC.
at least I got all my role queue tokens refilled so I can go back to playing 1 and finish my climb to Immortal.

who do I watch tonight?

>>532725350

Divine shitter here, which team drafted better in your opinion?

brew in solo queue stopped being fun when retards realized you can actually kill the brewlings

Why do like 1/3 of turbo games have a shadow demon pick in them? It has to be the most bizarrely specific consistent trend I have ever seen.

can you find the sercet /vg/ chat?

Why do core willow fags refuse to buy bkb? I fucking hate core willow niggers so fucking much.

>>532736152
bkb no damage

>>532728764
Lmao ima be real with you so bottom saw disrupter/bane being picked first then proceed to draft to give him a strong game axe pudge slark into him is kinda crazy ngl but cores dont think for the most part

>Buy BKB
?????
Why.

>>532724719
Its not that people don't understand, its that they don't care because he's a micro hero. See >>532725428. Just look at the 10 least played heroes on dotabuff in all ranks, 8 of them a micro heroes. Meanwhile only 2 of the top 20 most popular heroes have any micro (invoker and natures prophet) and most people don't even utilize their micro gameplay anyway.

>>532739837
sex with slop dotas

>>532738447
He's suddenly been popping up in your feed too eh?

He's exactly how I imagine every herald player. Griefing every game while complaining about his team and smurfs all game long.

it should be impossible to get this many griefers in a day

>>532743035
>NP picker
>Medusa picker
They're just mentally ill.

Why isn't Ringmaster picked more often? Even with the nerfs he's an amazing support:

>has a save
>has a stun, even if it's best for disrupting channels
>has strong lane harass that scales into lategame damage
>has a massive teamfight ult
>clutch trinkets for evading spells and healing

>>532745885
biggest issue is ultimate often does nothing imo

>>532745885
Ringmaster is a worse Bane.

>>532746005
Yeah it's a skillshot, maybe that's why his wr isn't great.

>>532746634
They have basically nothing in common.

>>532746634
Bane?

>>532746975
when he was released his ultimate lasted a lot longer (i think 4 seconds now and used to be 6 seconds) so you could also use it as area denial. you can't really do that effectively anymore.

>>532747072
Aye.

Update doko

PSG here
Celebrate with me as the scourge of the internet, Brits, are now banned

That one PSG hater guy can't access 4chan anymore LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

TRUE

>>532752763
I'm still here m8

>>532667549
it was an item that converted your attack to magic damage that was pretty much a puppet master only item
i miss the hon heroes, madman and fayde etc

>>532752763
They can still play dota...
We won nothing...

Came back to this game after long time. It has mostly gotten more complicated, there is just lot more stuff. Sure courier is automatic now but the game wasn't dumbed down like some were expecting for it to happen over the years.

Mars aghs is fucking garbage, it should block all attack projectiles the way arena does or make it so god's rebuke cooldown refreshes immediately if you knock someone into the arena walls with it so you can keep ping ponging with it.

>>532759827
The game has never been more streamlined, every hero plays the exact same, has the same spikes and scales the same. Those that don't are complete unpickable garbage, which is like 40% of all heroes now. We are moving into lol of legends territory, the unpicked and unbanned heroes keep growing.

>500 hours in
>still herald
It's over for me

>>532760604
>tutorial hours
>tutorial rank
If you grew up playing warcraft 3 it is super over, otherwise all normal.
It is impossible to consistently climb in low ranks, as people are unbelievably stupid, without being signifficantly better (i'm talking 1-2k mmr higher in skill) than all the other players.

>>532760604
Lol you are still fresh in the game enjoy the process and ask people questions here don't be shy most likely you will get someone to help you

>>532760604
Just learn how to play mid or carry. Pick a strong meta hero, look for (non-meme) online guides and grind it out.

Also ignore your team if they want you to join every dumb fucking fight they start, just farm your items. People in Herald are literally retarded and their opinions of you are worthless.

Is battle cup playable, like at all? Or is it all smurfs

>>532724719
Didn't know moneysforever posts here

God hates me that's why he made me bad at Dota and have gastritis

>>532760604
Learn 2 heroes for 2/3/4/5. Learn 3 hard carries. Earn tokens with allroles, chain queue pos1 until you run out of tokens, rinse and repeat. Play the last-hit minigame every time before you queue up (even if you're token farming). 500 hours is nothing. I don't think ranked should even be available until you have 1000 hours of normal games.

>>532760604
I just checked and it's 600 already wtf
>>532761051
>If you grew up playing warcraft 3
Nah, no prior rts or moba experience
>>532761317
I'm enjoying it but the skill variance is just insane and I'm not talking about smurfs. A random guy with 2k games played can turn out to be a completely clueless bot that ignores runes, can't set up his lane, gets baited into retarded plays and just randomly walks around the map after the laning stage, forgetting about objectives or a complete opposite and those two players somehow end up playing in the same bracket. The moment I have a good streak and finally feel like I've improved a bit, I get effortlessly destroyed by a player that doesn't feel anything like the ones from the previous games
>>532762014
>>532762674
I play 2 heroes mid. I used to have some success with 3 a few patches ago but not anymore. I haven't played much 1 at all but I have abysmal winrate as a both supports

>>532762674
doesn't really work for games
most people are competitive by nature and don't want to play unranked

>>532764305
>Nah, no prior rts or moba experience
It will be rough for you, I have 620 games and I'm almost Archon 3 but I've played MOBAs and RTS's since I was a kid, it's like riding a bike for me. Don't be rough on yourself and honestly don't even think you'll progress fast (maybe you will, but probably not). Have fun.

>>532764305
look you can't just queue mindlessly and expect to get better
look at some streamer and copy exactly what he does and do that every game on the same hero
when you start getting out of elo hell you can start copying other people you meet but keep in mind these will all be several months old builds since there's no one to feed them pro builds anymore
if you ever get close to 5 digits you can consider yourself decent at the game

it is what it is

https://kick.com/fissure_dota_en

>>532729189
why would I buy that on agi or int hero? also doesn't help me last hit.

>>532766442
Slardar is a strength hero and you can use third hit of E's passive to last hit.

If you're a TB nigger who does the sunder meme you deserve to be dragged out in the street and shot.

If you're a retard who doesn't build a linkens when this nigger build shows up in a game, you deserve it too.

>>532764305
spam shadow shaman
OP support and you can push for your team
take the big chicken facet the other one is a bait

>>532766967
this (if you mean big snake)
SS is actually so fucking stupid if you just get arcanes and blink, you terrorise the enemy team

>>532766967
i haven't played him in a while but i'll give him a try since i'm about to run out of tokens.

>>532760604
>>532764305
stop paying attention to your rank and your team, just focus on your own play and have specific areas you want to improve on in mind while working on your total game plan package.
for example, super stress last hitting in lane and getting farm while not focusing as much on your pushing and fighting.

>>532766635
ok who gives a shit about slardar how do I stop losing lane on all heroes?

>>532767962
Lol don't listen to them just pick qop in pos 2/3/5 and auto win games

>>532767879
yeah I meant big snake I forgot his wards arent roosters oops

>>532766254
I guess

>>532768318
>>532767879
now I want a big chicken hat for wards

Qop is just as bad as Ss but i dont think people cry about her as much because shes fun to watch

why is my razor carry buying linkens

>>532770410
doesn't want to go bkb against sven stun

>>532770617
they have a trillion slows and coil

>>532770410
aa sven does puck ulti proc linkens idk if it does but if so him but he just really needed someone to build lotus for him if anything

>>532770684

-literally just bkb and linkens combined

>>532770684

>>532770617
now what

>>532771206
whats his scoreline

>playing a really close match
>losing the entire game but manage to teamwipe them and have a chance to go throne
>tell my AM not to take the rax after the mid t3 and go straight for throne to end
>he kills the rax which refreshes the glyph
>explain to him after we all died that we could've won if he just killed t4+throne
>no response because either he can't understand english or he cannot read or he's muted everyone
i share the same sentiments with shartour where i think dota's a great game with amazing depth and endless interactions which makes every game seem like it could be the highlight of your day, but it's filled with the worst playerbase of subhumans and animals
any barrier of entry would filter these 'people' out to increase the quality of games but valve has the will of the people where they can do no wrong and dota for some reason has to be a free game

>>532769626
there's no song called fuck the shadow shaman

>>532771273
started out very mediocre like 400 gpm but ive been feeding him lassos for dinner so he's big and fat now

>And then the Dotard told me, that the game would be getting MORE updates after they dropped the battlepass

best post in this ITT thread

>>532770882
pls realize you have cancer

playing at low comm score is so fucking miserable

>>532764305
Would anyone be so kind as to look at some of my replays? Even in games I win I often end up with gpm bellow 600 despite trying to farm camps on the way between objectives and being on the lookout for unpushed lanes so I'd like to know how can I improve in this regard

>>532782697
the entire score system is a fucking joke

>>532737587
>>532707768

this is getting tiresome.

Best team comp here? Queen is pos 1.

>>532790270

>>532790270
4 carries on radiant
2 carries on dire

>>532790749
>4 carries on radiant
Explain it.

>>532790837
ogre is the only support hero picked, and he's only good at enabling a carry.

>>532790946
>wd carry
>voker carry
Hmmm

>>532793046
Shitters think wd not only isn't trash but also a carry

>>532793046
I'm glad you're beginning to understand.

>>532793125
post you're rank and match history.

>>532793374
9k

>>532789506
what rank

>>532793125
https://www.dotabuff.com/heroes/witch-doctor
>win rate drops as rank increases
>only "support" item is glimmer

I had a support enchantress that built MBK. And he built this shit against Phantom Lancer. I reported him for griefing after the game ended.

>>532795498
Lol not like she can build anything else against him did you ask them why they built it

>>532795761
Well if she didnt want to build support items she couldve built maelstrom, radiance, shiva's guard, literally fucking anything that helps against the illusions

>>532796108
Lol that's fair wcyd avoid and report

>>532794221
Yes, shitters think he's good

>>532796882
wd is fine even if he isn't op. shitters just think he's broken because he happens to be cancer in turbo

I really have no idea about what other pos1 I should play. I really enjoy razor. Apparently Ursa and Lifestealer are good right now but idk these melee pos1s are boring to me. Maybe i'll play Abaddon and Doom pos1 like the pros do

visage is so fun

>>532801420
>razor
>pos 1

>player buys aether lens instead of blink dagger
>lose
Many such cases!

>>532803884
>razor mid or offlane
useless

do you believe a patch might be able to revive dota?

>>532807209
lmao.

>>532807209
>sub 100k daily peak
its over...

>>532808697
...

>>532807209
Next patch is going to be massive

>go wild with sf
>team literally feeds away a free win

this is peak matchmaking. remove all the warning labels so these window licking chimps get darwin'd out of the gene pool. holy fuck ive seen some dumb mother fuckers but god damn if this shit doesn't rob me all my faith in humanity.

ah just another good ol match of dota

>>532811207
>still not farming

>>532807209
yeah we just need a patch that goes back in time 15 years and nukes lima from orbit

>loli pugna confirmed for next event
1 million concurrent players incoming

>play well
>lose because of teammates
why it be like this?

>play like shit
>win because of teammates
Arrr, how that be?

>>532814091
forced fifty free wins :)

I think I'm definitely not having fun but there is nothing else to play.

what mids do I pick if I want to cope by it being my least favorite role, and I suck at last hitting and laning?

>>532816216
Jakiro

>>532814895
brother go out and take a walk

>>532816543
nope he can't cope with the enemy showing up and your team not.

>tired of spics
>uninstall
>come back after a few years
>still spics but now there are pajeets too

>>532816685
i walked 90 minutes today

i gotta say dota was more interesting last year
you could gamble for +80 if you played your cards right
now you get a measly +25 while the pros sit on 17k mmr and im stuck in the 8-9k house of horror

>>532818687
good job keep doing that every day whenever you lose 3 in a row

>>532818819
I still have double down tokens left

>>532819017
unfortunately i don't i went all in on getting 9k and now i don't enjoy dota anymore i feel like i should be at least 10k my games are so terrible i either avoid all my teammates or win in 20 min

Someone explain to me what I shouldve done here. I killed the mid t1 and t2, and the top t2 and t3. Meanwhile my team keeps fighting the enemy team bottom over what I dont fucking know. I don't think I could have set the match up better to be a win but my teammates were legitimately braindead.
8390600567

>>532819161
what makes you think 10k would be any different?

>>532819238
Accept that some games aren't winnable and focus on improving for your next game. Take more risks, try new builds, learn the limits of your hero.

>>532811368
How do you farm as Marci she really isn't the fastest farmer and you have to play with more tempo

>>532820158
Im not making any progress

>>532820029
you get matched with higher rank players because the pool is smaller
likely to be fewer account buyers

>>532820912
haha

>>532825474
why are you laughing i've been rank 2k several times in eu unfortunately my last stint involved 200 furion games at 70% winrate and that wasn't sustainable after the nerfs keklmao

>>532825716
>abuse op hero
>think your mmr is legit
haha

>>532825932
haha right!
everyone abuses something you're not topson stop kidding yourself
