2 hard carries and 3 initiators is the only proper way to draft a team.
bkb is actually such a bad item.
I see forced 50 is still a thing, despite not really playing for a month

wut
i don't know if it increases radius on Q but even if it did it would still be a bad item choice on a hero with unlimited regen who blink is already core on. and if you need magic resist for survival glimmer is a superior choice for everything
>>127386715
Who cares, just throw an ult when they are low
>>127386715
Glimmer cape/Aether lens and the other new support items are such a disgusting copy of how LoL does support items.
Then the jungling changes, memeback gold, insane amount of carries encouraged to be in every game... IF is straight up copying LoL, it's not coincidence. All the dumb rettitards and other associated dicksuckers just eat up everything this hack fraud adds to the game.
I play pretty much only squishy support and do really well. When I play Rubick I die 40 times a match. Why? I don't understand.

Ludwig "zai" Wåhlberg is a Swedish Dota player from Skara, Sweden, who is currently a sub for Evil Geniuses, working on finishing high school. He last played the offlane role.

The team without psg on it.
>>127413479
The problem is the damage and range boost are negligible, and those are the only reason you would buy that over something else. 8% is nothing and 100 range is almost joke worthy.
>>127413719
Radiant because they didn't pick druid who went MKB without anyone on the other team having evasion.

Lion's been to hell and back and back to hell and back. So presumably he has an attorney, pretty good one too given that all Lion does is go round fingering people. I can only assume that they do indeed exist in dota and that we can only hope for one in the future.
>>127413956
Well shit, but still most spells really aren't bleeding for 200 extra range, especially when you compare with another item that effectively adds up to 1200 range.

Here are some more:
Slardar?
Wraith king? (albeit the manafix is still ok, the range on his stun doesnt really do shit. Is his ult increased? i think not)
Ursa. Definatly.
and ember spirit
note, this is not because ember doesnt benefit from it, but because it is not cost efficent enough to be counted as viable.
>>127413479
Its pretty useless on troll. If you want regen and magic resistance you'd probably be better off with a hood, and the spell range only effects ranged axes.
Its also pointless on ursa.
>>127414482
trash, dragon lance is bad, you should also get an aquila for splitpushing (aquila with soulring keeps you away from base forever) and deso is better earlier than hex because its an early/mid game item plus you wont kill shit with a naked hex

You spend all the farm on items that aren't good on Lina. Octarine Refresher Agha is actually way better than AC Hex Agha for killing Luna. Your team doesn't have a proper carry to manfight Luna, so you need to annihilate Luna before she gets to use Satanic.
what if
Aether Lens LINA?
>>127416240

lost the game because the PL snatched aegis from me. twice.
actually paying my booster to get me out of low priority right now. being put in low priority now means racking up 10+ losses in order to complete 5 games. it just isn't possible with these players.
ember spirit is a fucking bullshit hero btw.
What went wrong?
>>127386715
It could be, but Necro has no other skills that benefit.
Death Pulse doesn't have range in the first place.
His passives don't benefit.
And you want a Blink Dagger/Force Staff to cast the ulti anyhow if you are not in range to do so.

I am not advocating Deso on Ursa. I am saying it's better than Lens for what it does. Typical 4K trashcan reading comprehension.
okay guys
i have like 200 hours in this game so i decided to spam juggernaut to try and get good
nothing but losses so far
any tips for the tilted scrub? maybe a hero change?
>>127419693
I know I'm shit but I always like picking up deso after the game is pretty much won to completely destroy towers.

>>127419785
Well it's not that bad against heroes that have very high armor, especially now that Abyssal damage was nerfed. Not a particularly good item as a core item, but situationally worth it, especially in cases where you have to try and rat raxes over fights that you always end up losing thanks to game being 10-30 in the enemies favor. Not a common scenario, but sometimes you need to make moves like that.

Not that guy, but not getting Agha on Venomancer is pretty damn stupid. The ulti damage was nerfed the last time he was touched, but it was buffed with Agha. Banana is a viable MMR climbing offlaner for example, because the ulti with Agha is really damn strong spell now that Huskar is a bad meme.

It's fun to play with friends once in a while.
>Does it become a more rewarding game the harder it gets?
What? I assume you mean the more you play or the better you get, and it does sort of.
>>127420295
Swipes has not been an orb for over a year, soon 2 years. Naturally you with your ladder anxiety that doesn't even play the game doesn't know of this. :^)
>>127420254
>5k+
giving my opinion anyway
games get MUCH better the higher your mmr gets both in the sense of fewer peruvians and also fewer people looking to ruin games. you will still have shitty games but more often than not even losses are legitimately fun. Not to mention the occasional game when you queue into a streamer and get to meme in front of 20k+ people
>>127420406
Reminder it always was.
>>127420428

>>127420559
ill consider your input anyway 4.7k friend
>>127420559
Honestly sometimes when I have like 60+ minute Very High Skill games I don't even care if we lose because I actually spent an hour playing with actual good players going back and fourth seeing who is better.
>>127420254
Only if you play with friends really. I played to 5.5K around 2 years ago, but haven't really felt like playing alone ever since then. It's still really fun to play with your buds, assuming they aren't fucking awful to the point that you are never challenged properly by anything else besides your team losing trilane to Riki. Might play to 6K now that fun offlaners like Clock are viable again. (Less Huskar, AM, Alchemist)
>>127420739
your clone only lasts 20 seconds and you want to go full 9/11 on their towers while it's only 20 minutes in. Radiance is mostly farming item in this case but when you have fucking two midas you are okay on farm.

Jakiro. liquid fire wins early game by harrassing the enemies in lane, and wins the mid game by taking all tier 1's early. then get eul's and start setting up ice path macropier combos. then get agh's aether lens because it is hilarious the range you get.

>>127422306
>what's Lycan good for other than ratting
but that's literally the point of the hero
brown boots -> vlads -> necro 3 -> travels
constantly switch between lanes, when people are missing and you don't know which lane is safe just jungle and let wolves push a lane out
if you want to join fights build stuff like bkb/abyssal after that shit otherwise go standard rat items like AC/Deso
they also gave wolves a thing to slow attack speed so he can manfight carries better now

He's still pretty good. His nerfs are overblown.
@127422451
Axe is pretty good in the trench games, since no one tps in to help if Axe starts to creep skip
you might even get to play against dual melee carry lanes if you're lucky
also maining is not a thing in dota you lolbabby, some people main a role but maining just a single/few heroes is just stupid, especially when you're just starting
leave maining to professional players who decide to main a role

Hey guys, bot coder dude here again.
After wasting the whole day, Techies bot has successfully learned how to lane. With a heatmap for player movements based on hero, time, and even MMR (all based on games where a Techies player was on the enemy team, to avoid skew towards rune spots), first blood is a near certainty for him now. Nowhere is safe.
He still has no fucking idea what to do after the laning phase, although he *can* determine when it is over or when to try and end it.
I'm also going to add demining countermeasures soon, since he likes the rune spots a bit too much.
>>127422957
but you're feeding like fuck in most of those games
it gets really frustrating to lose several games like this in a row:
im slark and my friend is playing zeus, other 3 guys were a three man stack
>>127423339
you can literally program it to tp to a lane place fb mines and never last hit, make specific spots for it to go with smoke etc and it'll win 50 percent of games

But I do fuck up my own share of games as well. im only a shitter
i'm a total newbie and i'm really enjoying playing AM and PA, which other carries should i try?
i really like these two because they have great animations and farm really fast. i also like blinking all over the place
I need to breed Traxex
>>127423579
try lancer though he is pretty out of meta at the moment
>>127420254
>Do you find that this game is worth getting good at?
Of course not.
Unless you aim to go pro the game is a complete waste of time. To get genuinelly good at it you need to spend thousands of hours at it but in matchmaking you will never get to play matches at a high level amongst equals.
This is why I stopped playing the game a year ago.

take a look at medusa's build
how?
>>127423579
pa is pretty bad once your opponents know how to start buying silver edge, and later when they get good enough to be able to farm mkb reliably
am is a great choice
try spectre. shes super squishy until she's farmed but she has global presence + vision with her ult. her ult is amazing and is what makes spectre ridiculous lategame. she has a nice attack animation and will teach you how to just right click creeps and not die in lane pretty well

>>127423893
that guy has been winning a lot of games with radiance/manta/vanguard void
what. the. fuck.
>>127424247
it seriously is. the matchmaking is COMPLETELY different.
when you've been muted and put in low priority well over a hundred times each, your account gets permanently modified in osme way. you are stupid if you don't think this is true. why WOULDN'T they do it?
Is Shadow Fiend still OP mid?
>>127424267
I meant his skill build
unless it's an error, he skilled Mystic Snake to level 3 at level 4

>getting muted and low prio on a regular basis
what a toxic piece of shit
>>127424367
yeah that can happen if he jumped straight from level 3 to level 5 due to some early kills and then leveled mystic snake with his 4th skill point
>>127424367
Dotbuff gets fucked once a hero levels several levels without upgrading a skill.
>>127424512
ah
I didn't really consider that. It was just weird, since I would LOVE to be able to skill Mystic Snake to level 3 that early.
>>127423456
It reads the audio output from the game alongside scanning for visual cues while flipping across visible areas on the minimap. As a result of not reading from the game itself, it's undetectable.
When does the forced 50 kick in?

I already named it ixmike bot.

Ok for people that have tried out both modes. Which ranked mode is best for soloplay? Which one results in the best experience?
All Pick or Random Draft?
>tfw haven't played dota in 4 months
i'm scared to even touch it again
the rust is real, and i was never that good to begin with
>>127424791
They would all end up floating to the same MMR bracket then it would be a bunch of wasted accounts.
I still have to do 3 heroes after this in case the bot loses its first pick. The idea is to see how far a fully autonomous bot can go in ranked MM.
>>127424935
that's the idea anon, to make a bracket hell.
Make sure it's 3k ~
>>127424230
If I ever released the bot publicly I'm positive it would ruin MM.
How many items can I get away building on Spectre before radiance?
Also I'm not a good farmer (I play AM and my BFs usually come somewhere inbetween 15 and 17 minutes), can I realistically play her well enough?
>>127424875
unless you're jumping into trench-level ranked on the first game, you literally have nothing to worry about
Support drama queens are the worst. They need to make sure that everybody knows what a great deed they are doing by supporting and then throwing a fit and refusing to buy wards or whatever.
4k retards
>>127425070
that's the idea anon.
>>127424768

>literally anyone
>>127424985
The implicit problem is that the bots play with/against each other, negating the purpose of it.
>>127425142
there's no good offlaners in europe

>How many items can I get away building on Spectre before radiance?
Get enough to offer basic sustain and some stuff that increases your farm.
If you didn't get quelling as starting item it's good to get it early in lane.
Aquila is fine to get and so are Tranq boots if you're mostly gonna farm and maybe help out with your ult every now and then (you don't always need to jump to illusions).
>>127425263
he's retired
>>127425258
Then I would have to code the bots to play 10 different heroes instead of the 4 I'm doing now.
>>127424831

aquila, phase
>>127425327
To make it feel real some of them will DC anyways.
