Hello
>>127234854
Stop using a computer from 2000.
So in a move to try and make myself play better, i've taken to whipping myself with a leather belt every time i lose. one lash for each MMR point lost. Anyway, just lost a game for 29 points. 29 lashes it is.
Just on my arm, nowhere too delicate. only, i'm typing this one handed right now because my arm is stinging and numb, and i think i broke the skin in a few places.
So, on reflection it might not be the best motivational strategy.
>>127234816
its 4k ranked tho
>>127234767
dude, its not dota related like at all. the whole point of this board is to discuss a single game in each general. there is no anime in dota. it is off topic. fucking deal with it

want to focus on increasing my mmr this year, and im not that experienced in ranked. Starting at 1.6k what heroes would you recommend I learn to play so I can carry the team if someone picks mid
>>127235495
personally i think he's still pretty strong if you just go acid/stun and get greevils lategame, or go 2-1-1 / 1-2-1
he can also support kinda
>>127235250
Carried in every single game, you could be on jungle tidehunter and received the same results.
>>127235597
you could try spamming offlane heroes. I have no idea how bad 1,6k is ,but i'm sure you can work on last hitting,buying bkb and remembering all your active items and easily climb 1k mmr in a month
I AM A CHAMPION
>>127235772
Yea I've been watching my replays and have started always carrying TP scrolls and buying the wards because no one else does it. Just that with the support heroes I play it can be hard to carry if I have a nonce on my team that won't cooperate - so what offlane heroes would you recommend?
>>127235597
>I can carry the team
bad mindset to get into, youre 1.6k, youre not better than your 1.6k teammates so it makes no real difference whos carrying
just work on everything, one small thing at a time
last hitting, remembering active items, stacking jungle camps while moving around the map etc
a reminder that the meta has not changed in over a year and that meme mids are the only thing that matters in this game
So I started yesterday playing DotA 2, and so far I've tried Arc Warden and Witch Doctor. I didn't find AW to be too new player friends but WD seems fine to learn for a beginner.
Any other heroes you would recommend for a beginner?

That's a big list. Are these in any particular order of which I should learn first?
>>127236128
go ask this on reddit, seriously. 90% of this general is terrible and will give you awful advice. the people on reddit are much higher skill and can help you grow as a player much faster
>>127236128
Play wraithking till you are 4k mmr. Playing the same hero again and again will make you improve.

>>127236392
Alright. I think I like support the most but I'll try Wraith King first and see if I like him.

>>127236495
you can make a reddit account in 2 seconds
>>127236495
it takes like 2 minutes to make a reddit account and spending that two minutes registering will save you tons of time when you actually learn useful shit instead of spending your time here arguing about what jungle hero you should pick in your 1k mmr games
>>127236495
Yeah it's ranked. Supports like lion and lina are also good. Lich is very easy and does a lot of damage so you should try him after wraith king. You're only gonna have fun for 200 hours after which you will get addicted and no longer enjoy this game.
>Vici can't even beat Newbee/CDEC.Youth or win tier 2 Chinese tournaments
You CAN'T make this shit up.
>>127236128
It depends weither Supporting or Carrying turns out to be more satisfying
Just go with bots and try heroes, you'll find which ones that you can use easily; all the heroes are avaiable, go nuts

how is that surprising

>>127236495
You'll get advice here, but the general has gone to shit a while ago. Basically 1% great stuff and 99% attention whores/shitposts.
Reddit isn't much better. It's more or less the same. If you're actually totally new you should google purges guide called "welcome to dota, you suck".
Just remember in most games no one will want to support/buy wards/pay attention to the mini map/carry a tp.

if you honestly think this general will teach you anything and that 90% of the posters are not 2k you might be retarded.

Comments on both sites are shit. Absolute, unending waves of shit. Here due to anonymity people just try to rile people up with various crap, while reddits upvote system creates a mild hivemind.
Who gives a shit if pros have reddit accounts? When was the last time pros posted insightful replies in regards to gameplay? Only thing they do is participate in pathetic attempts at drama. Usually not even that if they're smart.
Both sites have a majority of posters who are 2k. Both sites post awful advice about pretty much everything in most cases.
I'm not defending this hellhole, or shitting on reddit, but the fact of the mater is that both sites are horrible if you want to learn dota, have extremely similar userbases and it would be for the best if they were both nuked and we started over.

No, reddit is consistently terrible and wrong and have a tendency to downvote people that post factually correct information.
Skill and knowledge wise reddit is just as bad as d2g. This is because most people that play Dota re in fact terrible at it (a very small percentage even play at VHS, which is at anything above 3700 mmr).

Okay. I tried ranked in LoL a while ago but it was frustrating. I imagine it's the same thing with DotA?
>>127236919
>>127237025
Alright. I don't mind supporting. It's what I'm used to in all of the co-op games I've played.
So I tried Wraith King and I guess I didn't do so bad for my first time? The Broodmother player seemed to know what they were doing so I guess there's that. I'll try Wraith King again since he seems pretty simple.

LOSING ALL LANES
How do I Viper? Aquila, treads, wand, mek, and dragon lance I think are all pretty much core on him but what do I go after that? Is Shivas a thing on this fag?
>>127237442
It is. It is bad for new players in numerous ways and gives them the compelte wrong mindset.
>>127238286
All of them.
There is no dedicated best hard carry, all do different things and work against different matchups.
AM is generally the best for learning but you lean more towards a splitpusher than a carry for the most part. He teaches you tread switching if nothing else.
>>127238389
HAHAHAHA what the fuck

>>127237215

Get agh's you fuck. MKB if you want damage
>>127238449
viper is the most straight forward hero like ever dude, if you really dont know how to play him you are fucking stupid and should uninstall dota forever before you forced 50 your team
>>127238508
She is good and she is fun, but she's a flood or drought style hero. She's really hard to make a comeback with because she relies entirely on winning lane hard and getting a duel or two won in the process, and using that momentum to snowball out of control and keep winning duels until she's got 200 bonus damage then she just walks up and three hits all the towers with her 5k health pool and skull basher.
>>127238324
i sure as fuck didn't support reddit, only thing it has that makes it slightly better is a lack of attention whore making pathetic attempts at erp
>>127238286
Right now I feel like the most reliable and self-sufficient hard carry is Ember Spirit
Juggernaut is good if you want something easier to play
They are both carries who can fight early, split push and bail themselves out
>>127238478
fuck off sjw
Dota 2 is a bad game.
>>127238478
>new players should feel like they're great at the game

>>127238506
>Winning against retards that don't even check the jungle for a FREE kill
Your point?
ARTEEZY is considered best player for the whole year by many PROS, with him secret was considered one of the best or the best team in history of dota and dominate other top tier teams like they are tier 2 until their crumble with conflict in TI5, and even when he goes back to EG, EG is still one of the best team, and may be the best if they figure out the sumail+rtz team work and win SHANGHAI MAJOR. Look at the whole year of 2015, i dont see any carry is better in term of performance + results as RTZ, FEAR also deserve to win coz he won TI5 and DAC, but there is a reason FEAR chose to be supporter to give RTZ the CARRY role in EG even after he won TI5.

No retard.
Giving them the mindset that "It's ok to be shit since I'm supposed to be anyway!" or painting a shitty picture of the game over actually teaching them something useful is worse than shit, it's detrimental to the learning process.
Pointing new players to that "guide" is a fucking terrible idea.

Blink is almost always better yet you fail to understand why. This is because you don't even understand the purpose of each of those items, nor how LC should play.

i attribute that for being the only reason that i was calibrated at 2800MMR when ranked came out
strength morph is stupid overpowered versus players with zero brains, you just do stupid shit, get free kills, strength morph and walk away. that was like 90% of my games as him.
i have over 4900 hours and i'm still stuck in 3.5K hell, maybe i need to revisit morphling now that my farm is way more consistent (600gpm on average).

he doesn't need one. he's still an incredibly powerful hero that pretty much shit-stomps the fuck out of any low-skill MMR. just because he isn't the best carry, doesn't mean he's shit.
if the meta ever shifts back to rice meta, he will be considered an OP beast of a hero.
arguably, he's OP right now because they reduced the manacost on Ethereal Blade which was one of the huge nerfs to him back in 2012.

is there anything abaddon can't do?
i just went aghs and greaves and spamhealed and shielded my teammates when they got focused and we just won by outlasting them
15k hero damage and 8.5k healing
even when it looks like an obvious loss you still win
>>127240242
How do we know you're not the bad player here?
>>127240161
How do you play him then? You can't afk farm anymore
>>127239468
Frostbite can be immediately dispelled with press the attack
Also a LC who then mans the fuck up can solokill CM easily

the way i've always played him, you're supposed to play stupidly aggressive and bait people into feeding you by playing dangerously and punishing them with waveform.
you need to know how to manage your mana well.

That is 100% a jungle LC
i tell you what about free losses
>>127240394
>I can dispell it with PtA
>I-If I HAD the mana....
>>127240394
Or you could just lead in with crystal nova then wait for PTA till you Frostbite?
Also bear in fact that this is time that your LC isn't spending farming, which is the entire reason she's supposed to be there in the first place

we got a lot of kills at the end of the laning phase, then we started falling behind when they picked off cm, naix and storm when they were in the jungle
we also lost a few teamfights towards the end, at the same time they were starting to take our top and bot barracks
in terms of stats we were ahead, but we were in reality starting to crumble - which was the point when i rushed greaves and just stayed back keeping my team alive in duels and shit

>>127240729
i don't think it made a difference that he was jungling, because they would stampede and lc, rubick and jugg would try to get a gank on me
but after the first time i just stayed back and tried to get a few last hits with coil
>>127240965
subscribed :)
>>127240782
That happens sometimes. The later you attempt the gank, the less likely it becomes though. As a CM, going for the dogshit jungler usually isn't my top priority.
>>127240847
low level crystal nova doesn't do that much, yes maybe it will spook a bad LC into wasting PTA but probably not
Note that circumstances have to be absolutely perfect to solokill a jungling LC and I have seen PLENTY of LCs that can jungle without getting lower than 75% hp
>envy playing DK Country music
Nice.
>>127240996
>also who is posting these low hp memes?
I've hated junglers forever but as soon as 'jungle LC is always bad' started becoming popular on Reddit I knew that /d2g/ shitters were going to start spamming it with their 2K understanding of the game
It's bad but people can and do get away with it all the fucking time even at higher MMRs
And most junglers are bad but there are plenty that actually do know what they're doing
Your average /d2g/ shitter probably auto-throws the moment they see jungle LC "see I knew we would lose"

Because I'm not. I'm well aware of my own skill level and I consistently correct people and I'm right about pretty much everything I say since I don't make bold statements without proper backing.
But by all means, tell me why the purge guide is so amazing.

I was only watching envy since he's the only relevant pro player besides ppd playing right now, but ppd is actually good so his stream isn't that entertaining. Watching envy be a retard and showing just how hard he gets carried by his team is fun to watch.

Why do you think the support goes 1v1? Do you think Dota is some gentlemans sport?
Are you one of those people that type

All it takes is a CM and a rotating BH or something for you get your ass raped.

Even if the LC players gets carried by their team that doesn't change the fact that you're being a massive cunt to the rest of your team.
Any idea how utterly painful it is for a solo support in those matches because your retarded ass 4th or 5th pick jungle LC?

are you the guy who want apeshit about the purge guide a week back?
here's one reason why the purge guide might be considered good
it contains a lot of indepth information about the game that's not common knowledge to low and even a lot of medium skilled players
to a bitter know-it-all like you it offers nothing, but it's not supposed to, so no one is really bothered by your opinion on it
thx

I already did provide arguments which have yet to be countered.
If I examine purge's guide in detail and write several paragraphs on it it will just be ignored or handwaved away. I know how the people here work because I have done stuff like this several times before for the exact same result.
So please go suck Purge's dick elsewhere.

There is nothing to alter. If you think a CM is a hero that runs around and solo ganks heroes early game you're beyond retarded.
Point being that ganking an LC in the jungle is not difficult. Some heroes can do it solo, others might need an additional hero with them. However that doesn't change the fact that number advantage during a gank is standard.
>Insult Purge's guide
>get a billion free (You)'sI love purge really

i wouldn't ask him for game related advice, but he's funnylooking and can handle the bantz
it's okay to have someone to lighten the mood when there's nothing exciting going on ingame
Holy shit why is everyone so terrible in ranked RD? It's like almost everyone knows how to play exactly one hero even though there's almost a 50% chance of having one hero that they want.
>>127242228
Spare me your redditizing, Redditor
Jungle LC is situational and can work great provided the player isn't dogshit, which they often are. And the enemy supports aren't fantastic, which they rarely are.
What part of "I've hated junglers forever" do you not understand? I never jungle and frequently play solo support.
You stupid redditors think you've made some amazing understanding about lane dynamics but its old news to any seasoned player and we know how to work around it. Jungle LC has been a fucking plague for centuries so it's just laughable that only now are some people spamming about it.
>>127242250
>are you the guy who want apeshit about the purge guide a week back?

you're wasting your time in 1k if you wanna climb
>>127242437
>>127242527
We've been talking about solo killing LC
Yes you can 2-man gank her with smoke if you really really want her dead but that takes a significant more amount of investment and coordination that aren't always available in a pub
>b-b-but what kind of dogshit bracket are you in where people don't 2-man gank
The dogshit bracket with jungle LCs which is all of them you fucking retard
>>127242529
Purge isn't even a good or knowledgeable player so I don't know why you would listen to his advice anyway.
>>127242745
Players in 1k are actually very inconsistent. Sometimes you have good players who know what they're doing, sometimes you have peruvians who feed. People are there mostly because they give up and not because they are bad.
>>127242543
>Holy shit why is everyone so terrible in ranked RD? It's like almost everyone knows how to play exactly one hero even though there's almost a 50% chance of having one hero that they want.
People have stuck to AP for fucking ages.
I have 2000 something ordinary RD matches, which makes up about 50% of all of my matches. Most players do not have a 50% RD match count.

it aint going to happen.
I get the most assists and fewest deaths of the team on average. occasionally couple of games where I fucked up and those i fully accept as my fault.
but every fucking game there is that one core who suicide dives and whines the entire team wernt there to help. in caps lock
>>127242745
tips for recalibration?
Why the fuck did frosty toad nerf SF? Because he was picked frequently? The hero was balanced and wasn't even picked until that goddamn euls blink build came into fruition earlier this year around DAC.
Now he is complete garbage unless you have the easiest midlane of your life.
