let's hear your better-than-pros mmr build then big guy
I mean I don't play trash heroes but regardless let's hear it
I looked at my roommate playing overwatch today, and I counted at least 4 skills that are directly plagiarized from Dota 2. They work EXACTLY the same way. Blizzard plagiarized Weaver's ultimate, winter wyvern's heal, and a couple others I can't remember right now.

Is there a page that download pro grames in .dem format ( in game replay)?
remember
anime makes you shit at dota
I'm done with this game, if i'm not a 5k~7k to literally carry my team sometimes, i can't consistently increase my mmr.
In this game, after tinker and jugg got picked after my skywrath mage, riki went to offlane and shadowfiend did his amazing last pick and went jungle.
Me and juggernaut went to radiant safelane against a void and killed him twice, then i rotate mid with sentries to prevent tinker from dying and we killed zeus, at this point (4~5min) sf was lvl 2 with 2 deaths to bounty hunter and riki killed luna somehow after dying once in his offlane, cm was pulling and stacking their jungle so we had no big problems yet, after 10 minutes of game the shit started, and bh had drums, phase and urn at this point by roaming around and getting free kills through sf ass, luckily riki had some dusts and helped me with sentries.
SF finished his mekanism by 19 minutes into the game and we manage to get a couple of towers with a lot of sacrifices.
After 25 minutes luna had manta bkb and zeus had the biggest networth in the game, we could not win team fights anymore because sf was useless, i had no decent items at all and tinker didn't help either, we lost 47 minutes and of course, they was blaming me, sf was fine and quiet.
Thats how a 4k~4.2k non-ti ranked game looks like, i'll return to play this game the day i can stomp 4 people or carry 4 like professional and high 6~8k mmr players do.

>>143870116
Still no
Imagine there's millions of alien races in the universe. One day, one of them stumbles upon our planet.
They are not impressed. Everything we have here they've seen already in thousands of flavors. Except one thing, DOTA. They've never seen anything like it. Their calculations show it's the most amazing game possible.
They try to play it. They tell about it to other empires. Even these extremely intelligent, can't play it good. The best alien, grey looking ayy lmao motherfucker, who has been called THE SAVIOR OF PLEYADIANS. This fella calibrated at 1700 MMR.
By this time DOTA is played in the whole galaxy. Empires bet entire planets on BO3's.
Watching human TI's sets the mood for the whole Milky Way.
Alien overlords decide they will breed humans to play DOTA.
They contact us and tell us the whole deal. Entire Earth industry and economy means nothing. Our technology is shit, we are primitive. What matters is that we are genetically engineered to play the best game possible.
People don't have to work anymore, playing DOTA earns you millions if you are able to achieve at least 3k mmr. Anyone who can calibrate at 2000 can become local star system HERO for the aliens. These who play at 5k become instant billionaires. Aliens give them anything they want, 10 tonnes of gold, advanced electronics, everything just so they play for their teams.
Thou face when dota2 saved the humankind.
reminder that VP did nothing wrong
>>143869742

Dragon Lance on DK. Viable?
I mean it's core on TB and DK has even more uptime on his ult than TB on Metamorphosis right?
>>143870587
>>143870753
It's been done quite a few times in pro dota
It ain't too bad.
>>143870785
More popular so better artists. And valve makes 0 marketing compared to blizzard, not to mention dota doesn't have characters build with waifu potential in mind. And female chars are a minority in dota.
>>143870785
Blizzard pays for itand then removes it with copyright claims just to rub the fact that they used those artists to get an audience to get quick buck from, because they know it'll die in a few months before moving onto making another scam of a game
>>143870785
We've gone over this a billion fucking times, it's because Blizzard pays for it.
>>143870753
Its core even on meepo. Every agi/str hero should build one.
>>143870910
>>143870908
>>143870903
Valve should pay artists for Dota porn and add more female characters.
whats goin on thar?
>>143871037
Ded gaem.
>>143871000
No, thank you. I prefer my game to be known for something more than shit-tier waifus.
>>143871086
Can you stop being gay?
>>143870908
They don't take down all porn, just SFM one
And because they "had to"
Doesn't matter because it will still be saved, made and posted on sites that aren't tumblr or DA or whatever
>>143871115
Only if you stop sucking my dick.
What slot? Didn't you guys figure this shit out already?
>>143871386
One word: Rigged.
>>143871386
It doesn't matter.
>>143870173
Yeah, but which empire has futas?
>get goipendium

>>143871738
2900 MMR new obviously
Is windows 10 worth buying
>>143871984
Yes goy, of course it is.
>>143871984
>inb4 "botnet"
It's a decent system. Easy to navigate and use, and, if your GPU can run it, it has free support for DX12 (Although Dota seems to be working much better for those using Vulkan)
>>143871386
If it wasn't rigged you'd go with 4.
Although I wrote this before they added the weird pins near the 24000, it's rigged for sure so it doesn't matter.
>>143871984
Honestly just stay on 7. There's not really much positive about 10 compared to 7 when you're using a desktop.
The only app I use on my notebook is a Youtube app.
>>143871984

Gee I wonder who could be behind this post
>>143872798
play bot games by yourself then, and try not to take away too much from them, because they are actually quite bad for learning (blame valve)
the most you will learn is how not to do stupid shit in lane that will get you killed, basic laning mechanics will let you just kill a bot over and over. and you pretty much have to go mid since your lane partner bot in the sidelanes doesnt take you into consideration when they calculate what they should be doing (ie opponent is dead if you go in 2v1 but the bot plays like youre not there)
>>143872538

honestly start a lobby on your own and fill the slots with bots
if your teams bots are fucking up your laning you can ping them then ping another lane and they fuck off. the way valve made them respond to ping is pretty intuitive and well implemented (unlike everything else with the bots)

It works and fucks your shit over. Diffusal can be worked around but it's a huge pain in the ass.
Luckily most of the time only one smart fucker bothers with Diffusal on the enemy. Prey on his shitty teammates.
>>143878129
Terrible cosmetic decisions.
>>143878290
Offlane
>>143878258
Once had a game with PL and slark they both went diffusal which I had a hard time dealing with late game. The trick is giving them a shitty laning stage and delaying their core items as much as possible, on that case, slark wasted gold buying diffusal. Well on PL, I had an axe as teammate that game so I was never really worried, you jsut have to work around with your team's picks I guess, but overall this works for me most of the time regardless of line up.

What if there was a hero that would make enemy abilities work in reverse? i.e. while debuffed, every time PL gets hit there's a chance the attacking hero spawns an illusion.

>>143882637
I hate it because your support is either a useless XP sponge, or the type of support who ends up turning your lane into a trilane for last hits
its why I only solo offlane, mid, or jungle now, and ever since I've been much, MUCH more successful.

next year will go better since Valve will now see they went overboard with this years compendium
to much jew = lost sales
they will find a good balance for next year and then EG will win again
lmao enjoy your honeypot win this year Euros and Chinks no one will remember you just like TI4
