I'm in the middle of deciding which team deserves to lose more
>>144000225
if razor lanes against viper
do both teams lose?
im bored,
1) how to escape 4100-4400 trench?
2) my longest losing spree was 12 (with 1 win in between because enemy leaver)
3) my other acc has 4950
4) most played positions: off/roam/support
5) i would be happy with 4750 on ym main
6) im a cosmetic freak and cant w8 for the im2chest
7) the thing i hate the most is when someone picks support and i roam and i say i help with suport and end up buying courier, flying and 4 wards b4 the "actual" support buys anything suport related.
8) the time i spent playing makes a relationship impossible, thats why i regularly hire asian hookers to satisfy my sexual needs as a man. Asians because they are the cheapest.

Lmao. Every day, every day this shitty studio's audio is out of sync. Every day they miss 3/4 of the draft or even the entire drafting phase. Every day, ching chong Merlini is dirty and disheveled while casting, unshowered and unkempt because of his refusal to shower and his dedication to mouthbreathing. Every day the fat jew David "LD" Gormanberg is a fat jew, fat and a jew. Every day GoDz sucks the tiny cock of the Chinese dota scene just a little bit harder, desperately hoping for the Chinese load to be shot deep into his throat while trying to look "cool" with his awful pedophile mustache. Every day, Zyori "S N I F F B O Y" sniffs his dirty scrotum on camera, misses early teamfights and wears a pink bow in his disgusting, terrible "hair". Every single day this goes on, and you people eat it up. You love it. This is absolutely disgusting. I'm disgusted and I hate every single one of you, every single miscreant that donated to this horrid studio's kickstarter, every single retard that watches their streams without AdBlock, every single fan of this atrocious, revolting, insulting excuse for a "studio".

>tfw you ascend beyond stupid fundies
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.

Reworked Aghanim's Scepter:
Adds a secondary Spellsteal option, called Itemsteal. Rubick will steal the active component of the last item used by the target hero. The item must still be within their inventory for Itemsteal to work (cannot steal consumables such as Enchanted Mango or Permanent Aghanim's Scepter from Alchemist, for example). If the enemy hero did use a consumable, Itemsteal is simply blocked, ie Rubick will not steal an item's active component used before the consumable.
Using Itemsteal will replace any stolen spell Rubick has currently memorized, and using Spellsteal will replace any currently memorized item active. Casting Itemsteal on the same hero will reset the stolen item's active component's cooldown if they did not use another active since (works like Spellsteal). Iteamsteal memorization lasts 60 seconds.
Cooldown is 4 seconds for both Spellsteal and Itemsteal. Using one does not put the other on cooldown.

Slark is just problematic from a design perspective. Make him deal too much damage and he can rape entire teams and escape with no danger. Too little damage and Slark is a useless hero that just annoys.

If I had to tell you how awful you are at Dota, I'd do it in-game, and on the mic. You don't even deserve a (You)
Should teleport ground animation move if teleporting hero moves? It distract sometimes.
>>144006825
no all abilities that move you should cancel tp
such as drow silence
my mic apparently no longer works, what mic do you guys use for dota and in general?
