Hey dude, just so you know, Dota2nohats doesn't work anymore, that's why we removed from the pasta
Alliance vs Empire, two teams who are playing two patches behind the meta in an epic battle of the has beens and retards

WHAT DO I SAY, DO I ASK IF SHE PLAYS DOTA
SHE PROBABLY PLAYS DOTA RIGHT
LITERALLY OUR GIRL
>>119034561
win a game from megas b4 u talk
Why does Spectre lose every pro-game but does decent in pubs, /d2g/? She is a very good waifu but I think she kinda sucks unless the enemy team waits too long to win.
>>119034593
Nah, girls only play League
>>119034593
Of course she does, just ask which hero to play and how many stats you should take on AM before level 12.
Why is Lina upset?

Watch Purge videos. Or generally any popular YouTube/Twitch channel.
Watching how pros play a hero still teaches you all of the basic fundamentals about how the hero works, you won't be able to mimic everything but you can at least absorb the basics.As long as it isn't meme shit like Mek SF or Greaves BH, don't do that shit.
>>119034630
>refused to blow the Peruvians
>lose to Peruvians
Empire ;__;
You say Alchemist, I say Medusa.
You say Gyro, I say Medusa.
You say Ember, I say Kunkka.
You say Queen, I say Timber.
You say Magnus, I say Void.
You say Batrider, I say Pudge.
You say Doom, I say FRICK YOU!!!!
95% of teens follow the meta like dumb sheep. Repost this in your signature if you're one of the 5% keeping true theorycraft alive!!!

I want to watch the c9 game but fuck listening to a Godz solo cast.
>>119035141

>>119035141
Empire are pretty bad ;_;
>>119035082
No, I noticed my mistake and switched to slavleague.
>>119035139
A new account.
>>119035141
Empire's greatest contribution to the professional dota scene for some time has been their twitter feed.
How do we fix this piece of shit?
>>119035141
both
>>119035139
You don't
It's not the hero
It won't suddenly get better if you start picking x hero
Its you
You just need to git gud
>>119035141
Alliance has been back fam
>>119034690
pubs don't know how to push
>>119035248
give her an Arcana.
This is just Emprie being fucking shit, nothing to do with Alliance.
>>119035248
Ask FNG
>>119035326
Didn't fix Legion Poopmancer
>>119035141
S4 is legit whenever he isn't choking, the rest of Alliance are passable as pro players.

Reminder to rush sceptre on techies for impossibly fast pushing, farming, and defending
>>119035815
You made that up
The only thing that comes up in google is from when those chicanos broke into their house and raped her in front of sunsfan
>>119035754
you know what's gonna happen next
Since alacrity, so power treads are the boots for invoker ?
>>119035979
techies? is that a new hero of something never heard of him.
>>119035912
i was 48 almost ready for lvl 50 present and they reset everything
>>119035396
Her Arcana was released at the same time as the hero. She just had her nuke and ultimate nerfed afterward so that she wasn't GoodDoom and GoodEarthshaker at the same time.
Why is this hero considered good all of a sudden?
>>119035971
>>119035887
No one actually thinks it's true, dude, it's just a joke.
>>119036302
Octarmeme can replace Heart as a bulking item on her and effectively undoes the nerf to her Ultimate CD, which is one part of why she was dumpstered out of the meta
>>119036496
Yeah but she was considered awful in 6.84.
She was in the bottom 3 least picked.
>>119036496
Also level 1 Exorcism is less dogshit (as has been the case the last 4 times it was made less dogshit) and the Eul's nerfs affected her less than any other hero
This was a 60 minute game and both offlane and safe lane were getting raped.
What did I do wrong as Bristle the Back besides not upgrade my SnY? I think I did ok.
>when Dendi used to run it mid lane
too soon... ;__;
>>119035971
>tfw sheever still hasnt answered my twitch message
PLZ SHEEVER ;_;
>>119036593
last meta there were only 4 viable mid heroes.
>>119035514
You have a really poor mana management and your builds are trash. Work on that
Don't get Soul Ring on Phoenix ever again
Glimmer Cape is literally the best item on WW because of her heal
Don't get bloodstone on Jakiro ever again
Stop buying Dagon
Do you buy boots at random or something?
Buy more Urn
Stop buying Soul RIng on every hero
Your mana management is shit
You have no idea how the heroes spells interact with items so you buy shit at random
Your mana management is shit
>>119036662
Did you get a holy trinity item at the start?
>>119036593
Exorcism keeps getting buffed. That and FotM heroes getting dumpstered in the patch means there's room for new FotM.
Would you ever not get aghs for treant?
>tfw you'll never be as based as James
>PA
>'his'
P-purge?
I haven't watched dota since TI5, is alliance good again
>>119036316
SAJEDENE THE BLOWJOB QUEEN
>>119036762
Naw I don't get mek on Bristle. Too much mana to use. Went Bottle - > PT-> Vanguard -> SNY -> AC -> Linkens ->Basher -> Abyssal and then MKB.
Really want to blame my team mates for this loss but at the same time I'm not even slightly angry since everyone in this game was a huge retard and fed me.
>>119036917
yes
>>119036662
This is the first time i see a game here were somebody did very good and doesn't deserve bashing for blogging
>>119036618
>and the Eul's nerfs affected her less than any other hero
lol what
Anyone still going Euls on DP is a dumbass, Atos is now clearly better in every way.
>>119036593
>6.82c nerfs her
>6.83 reduces her strength gain
>Le meme fucks aka pros stop playing her
>6.84 buffs the amount of ghosts on ult increasing the already good damage into hell territory
>Le meme fucks don't realize
>Some high level metacrafter builds octarine and rape le meme fucks
>They all catch on and copy that shit
This has been always the way the meta is forged, pros just copy whatever some actual metacrafter comes up after getting btfo by them on regular basis
Why doesn't Magnus have a Centaur Stomp skill?
L-god pls
lmao nice RP s4
what happened to the players union meme that players pushed
>>119035248
But she is great.
>>119037121
>6.84 buffs the amount of ghosts on ult increasing the already good damage into hell territory
The max # of ghosts was unchanged, she just got 2 more at lvl 1 ulti and 1 more at lvl 2. She is still shit, it's just a meme.
>NAdota won TI5
>SAdota beating out NAdota
what year is this?
>>119037394
the year of the second coming of Loda
>>119037394
The year of the TI of first ban techies against EG
>>119037347
And then 6.85 gave her the exact same buffs again, DP's ulti literally got doubled in strength at level 6 the last patches. Spookyfu bestfu.
>>119037394
>being on a team with TC
when was the last time TC made it past International Qualifiers? When he was on Complexity?

>>119037639
This hero?
>>119037148
Because he's not a centaur, he's a magnataur. The difference is pretty significant.
>>119037752
So they lost? to whom?

You can see the pain in his eyes.. just one more hit

>>119036917
Not even close. They won from megas and 30k, but you have to keep in mind they put themselves in that position in the first place against a team that loses with megas and total map control.
The fact that NiP didn't instantly disband after that game is pretty questionable.

Why does her lore describe her as basically a librarian that read so much she tore a hole in spacetime and was welcomed into some magic free masons club
Nothing in there mentions how she can now be an apathetic assassin, just that she still likes to read
>you will never be your favorite's dota team cumdump
how do you overcome this sadness?
>>119038472
Just keep in mind this guy hates [a]
>>119038536
Because contrary to what Dota fanboys think, the lore is just shitty and sloppily written generic fantasy. Might be copypasta from old WC3 fanfics for all we know.
>>119038646

Too bad, cheaters never prosper.
So, how the fuck I create an autoexec file? I created a autoexec.cfg in the cfg folder but the game doesn't seem to run it when it launches.
Do I have to write something in the launch options for it to work?
I just want to include the dota_minimap_hero_size and set it up to start automatically everytime I start dota.

light blue is so awkward
>>119040558
