You should watch more shounen anime, where MCs don't feel bad after losing, they just vow to become stronger.
I recommend anime like TTGL, One Punch Man, and Shokugeki no Souma.
There's a reason EE named himself Yukihira Souma in one of his steam name changes.
>>123343153
why
>>123343038
I'm the OP.
I started at Very High Bracket. You can check the old image I posted, I literally win most games.
I'm also the best Carry Abaddon in the entire /d2g/.
>>123343037
No but evading the wordfilters is against the rules
>>123343153
One Punch Man is literally the opposite of that though. He feels shitty that he cannot lose.
>>123343153
I'm never going to make any money from this, what is the point of suffering to get better?
It's literally just for bragging rights

Hey /d2g/, which keyboard keys would you say are important for Dota if chatting isn't involved?
I do some keyboard modding as a hobby and thought about trying my hand at making an arcade-style Dota controller from scratch for all the keyboard functions. I'm at the design stage for the first revision right now, trying to figure out how many keys - and which ones - should be on the thing.
The goal is to basically have a panel of custom engraved buttons that depict what they're meant to do on a very well-defined layout instead of having the fingers dance around the keyboard all the time like pic related.
There's the six skill buttons, six item buttons, autocast toggle, chat wheel, voice chat push to talk, glyph, scoreboard, pause, screenshot(?), attack, move, stop, hold, select unit, select all, select all other, courier, action, taunt, control group cycle, 10 control groups (is 10 the max or are players allowed to set more in console?), alt, ctrl, and shift. Anything else? I'm not sure if I should go with the minimum number of keys possible or just go ham on all possible key options in the screen menu and also accomodate room for the set of cheater macros pros use which is why I'm asking which ones you guys think are important / necessary.
>>123343547
I'm saying your carry abbadon is proper shit compared to mine boyo
>>123343595
who cares fuck this game
>>123343383
>>123343554
Notice Bounty Hunter is immediately abandoned at 6.85
>>123343595
you don't need screenshot, you only need stop or hold not both (probably), you don't need action and taunt, you definitely don't need all 10 control groups
you also need shop controls in there. you don't need autocast toggle bc you can right click skills to do that
>>123343572
Yeah but EE doesn't come up with excuses like you because he imitates anime MCs
>>123342154
Make a smurf.

Being limited to a roster of ~7 heroes hurts
>>123343723
imitating anime MCs is what got me good at street fighter
way easier to get in the zone with that game because decisions have to be made much more quickly per capita than dota and it's more satisfying to beat someone one on one

That's what I want too but I don't think there's a point including them at all if I'm not going to include all 10. Still going to have to think about it.
>you also need shop controls in there.
I never used them so it didn't come to mind. I'll have to think about where they go then.
>you don't need autocast toggle bc you can right click skills to do that
Oh I thought you needed Shift or Alt + Right-click for that. That makes it a bit easier.
>>123346070
You had to use the regular shop? How disastrous.
What do I need/need to do in order to have a high win rate with Omniknight?
I would like to win and actually enjoy the game again.
>>123346223
Yes I dislike having to sort through many items which I will never build on the hero I'm playing in any conceivable situation.
How can I get motivated to play Killing Floor 2? I bought it a few months back, but every time I'm about to play it I end up queueing in dota2 instead.
I have a total of 23 minutes played and I don't want to feel like I wasted my money. Really liked the original one (350h of game time) but for some reason I can't get motivated to play the second one.
>>123346240

hey guys, have any of you found masturbating to make you worse? why is this?
anyone know what command this is?
basically highlights units if you hover your cursor over them
>>123346928
thats called cheating
1-5 go to sleep
6-0 play dota
>>123346921
I lose motivation when I masturbate a lot. Its related to release of some chemicals I think.
>>123346921
After I have sex with ure mom I get quite sleepy, so maybe it's somehow related to that.
when is the next compendium coming out?

im more motivated if i listen to really "masculine" / energetic music (punk rock, stoner rock, whatever) and if i play fighting games (theyre always so hype for me)
masturbation, however, i've found to not really have a noticeable effect on my play

Now that alchemist is meta, what is the DEFINITIVE,

BEST,
build for him?
Is it the Chinese Naga ripoff, the American Solar Crest Blinker, or the one where they go shadow blade basher?
>>123346928
the game already outlines units when you hover over them.
do you really need more handholding?
>>123343595
I hope you're planning on having layering in there, otherwise it would be completely unwieldly to hit all the possible things plus extra macros.
