jungle tinker is a good hero
mid lane tinker is a gold pinata
wtf is the point of putting him into mid where he's easily ganked and highly disruptable and then getting late travels and playing from behind
jungle tinker can show up to all lanes with global travels and level 8 at 7:xx and start raping everyone and contribute to every fight

+30 HP regen is nice, but it has its limits.
+550% mana regen is really nice. Shame storm isn't a melee hero.
I think 4 battlefuries + 1 AC is more damage than 5 battlefuries, since its exponential stacking damage.
>>144545506
Starting items and skill build?
Random or pick?
Whcih camp to farm?
>>144549680
pick tinker
go jungle at level 1 with iron talon
cut cliff trees, stack 2 camps at the same time while hitting and iron taloning big creeps, spam march
get soul ring via courier
keep spamming march
march at 1/3/5/7, laser at 2/12/13/14, missiles at 4/8/9/10, rearm at 6/11/16
done correctly and efficiently, you should be able to sell back iron talon at 7:00 to 7:15 and buy your finished boots of travel and teleport home. Then teleport around a few times to get bottle. Then set immediately to vacuuming farm AND spamming missiles to contribute to fights. Missile spam from 7 minute travels completely wrecks most people so take advantage of that to zone out their carry and snag some kills and win some fights
arcane boots as your first item after bottle
then you have the choice of proceeding directly to greaves OR getting earlier blink dagger. Blink is more defensive and lets you farm in an unsafe map, greaves wins you fights and pushes once you've got it
once you get greaves or blink, get the other one next
after greaves+blink, pick up aghanims OR get an item to counter mass blademails (euls / octarine / bkb)
now you're slotted out and you need to replace bottle and swap it in/out when at fountain with whatever last item you pick up (sheep, octarine or bloodstone)
the easiest way to win games is to remember that ANY TIME YOU BLINK IN YOU DIE. If you get cocky and go aggressive and blink in to laser someone to death at melee range, their ally will be waiting in fog and blink stun you and you ded. Your job is to spam missiles from fog of war and stay in fog of war and not expose yourself. Even blinking in for a 5 man laser bounce in a teamfight is usually not worth it
you should only use sheep when someone is trying to solo split push your towers and backdoor you or whatever. So if a 4000 hp carry tries to sit on top of your tower alone with mass regen and just soak up missiles while he kills barracks, you can stop that with sheep.
>>144545890
What if you picked booty hunter.
Literally 4% more auto-win than slark
well. i thought the mandela effect was just a dumb hoax but no.
guess whatits battle fury, not battlefury
Why aren't all the maps buyable? Why the fuck do the seasonal ones actually expire? It is so that you will have to buy the pass next year again if you want to use them isn't it? I went away from LoL because I thought Riot is a terrible scummy company but this is starting to look not all that different.
I'm never playing unranked again, people literally draft to lose and die 15 times in 10 minutes.

Isnt there a really indepth guide about the items in DotA? Like, I have no idea on what heroes to build which shoes. How do I know on who to buy phase boots and on who to buy power treads and crap like that. Starting items too. I buy what the guides tell me and stuff but I dont really know WHY am I buying that or maybe there is a reason to buy something else because of the matchups and I wouldn't even know because I do not understand the importance and adantages and disadvantages of certain items.

The guide is called your fucking brain.
What does the item do?
Does it help you do what you want to do with your hero?
Yes?
Then fucking buy it or buy some other thing that is even better or easier to build or whatever
No?
Don't buy it.
Dota is, contrary to popular belief, piss easy.
>>144551480
>Isnt there a really indepth guide about the items in DotA
Experience and out of the box thinking.
So in short, if you are a stupid person you are shit out of luck and HAVE TO ape what high tier MMR does or pros do
>>144551501
Reported, viable.
>>144551727
But you cannot expect a new player to know what every hero does and how he is best played and what items are good in which situations because you do not have an understanding of the situations themselves.

EXPERIENCE.
PLAY EVERY FUCKING HERO.
AND DO IT AGAIN.
>>144551323
What am I missing then? Broxybot proved a 6-slotted Tinker could actually sustain missiles indefinitely with that combo by dropping items, and even without that trick it still gives you a ton of mana per rearm allowing you to keep up a barrage of missiles for a long time. It makes it super-hard to take highground against Tinker because you need BKBs/Pipe for everyone who will show in vision, and you are extremely limited in the window you have for pushing as a result.
>>144551895
>There's a Brazilian playing music every game
>Minimum of 4 cowboys every game
I don't know how Blizzard did it, but it's actually worse than Dota.
>>144551876
>But you cannot expect a new player to know what every hero does
You can expect that.
There isn't really many heroes in the game and most of them are samey.
For example Leoric, Sven and Nessaj might as well be the exact same hero.

Sprint now affects every hero on your team for 10 seconds and gives them max movement speed.
The cooldown is increased to 40 seconds.
When an allied hero runs over an enemy hero it deals damage to 200 + 1/2/3/4 times Slardars STR and stuns for 0.5/1.0/1.5/2.0 seconds.
>>144552187

They all play exactly the same way.
You use your stun.
Hit shit until it dies.
Hope you don't die while you're hitting shit.
They just have slightly different survivability, damage and movement options. The way you play them is identical.
>Build damage on weaver. He dies after one disable because no suvivability
>Build defensive item on Weaver. Lose fights because no damage.
Why is this hero so fucking bad

>>144553059
Maybe you're just shit.
Weaver is a skill-based hero the entire point is not getting disabled because you are better than your opponents.
It's a hero for crushing shitters, not playing even matchups. Against people of equal or higher skill you can split push and that's about it.
How long until the compendium shit ends and you can no longer get any rewards from it?
>>144553059
Because you suck at positioning.
>>144553059
same as any squishy hero
when you are low level/damage you just steal kills until you are stronger and get items

If you don't UNDERSTAND the game, there's no point in playing.
Why you do what, why what works and why what doesn't.
Lately, I've been losing most of my games, because I did things that I knew wouldn't work.Serious Dota has lost its appeal, if I can't play stupid gimmick shit I don't want to play.
>>144553592The exact opposite of what you're doing you shit, you post non-viable builds. Now go kill yourself, your siblings, your parents, any offspring that might have been produced by accident, grandparents, cousins, uncles, aunts, any family member with even one chromosome in common, because every possible contamination you have inflicted upon the gene pool must be cleansed.

Hard to say because they are broken as hell. Randomly walking in circles while being hit and running to the runes at half hp. They are fairly aggresive in lane though regardless of hero so that can be either a good thing or bad thing. The only thing they can do well is last hitting with extreme precision.

Hey Coolmans bro.
Fuck.

What happened to CLQ? I miss hearing his voice. I notice he often takes breaks when major tournaments start.Is he secretly part of a a pro team?

yeah the bots dont farm
they pretty much just push in groups all game, its quite easy to outfarm them even without killing them
>>144557349
O-oh, sorry, I thought this was /pol/.
Wrong thread
Who /hype/ for Broxybot live analysis or the Manila major?
Let's see if a bot knows more than professionals.
>>144557328
I meant in the laning phase. After the 10 minute mark or so they start grouping up as 5 for pushes or to defend.
>>144557161
Neither does slark.
At what mmr does solo queuing stop being viable?
I used to have fun and have a positive winrate, and go on winstreaks. it doesnt happen anymore.
>>144557516
they group up as 5 every game around the 10-15 minutes mark and throw themselves at mid. then continue doing this until they either lost or won the game
>>144557558
>bots pushing mid tier 3
>start hitting a tier 1 of theirs
>instant 5-tp response
every time
>>144557637
When you get in the MMR range you're supposed to be at. If you go on winstreaks it means you have higher MMR than other people in the game, or you're having a retarded amount of luck in teammates.

Let's see how that turns out.
>inb4 recommended item: Blink Dagger for half the players
>>144557558
yeah true, their deny accuracy is of the fucking charts. it does train your early laning skills pretty well
Guys is there a site where you can bet real money on your own games?
I swear I saw it earlier but I can't for the life of me find out what the name was. It had like a green logo and that's all I recall.

>>144557656
They will group up a lot earlier of you pick PL or Naga or TB or an illusion hero like SD. They are coded to believe illusions count as heroes, so when you use Mirror Image or whatever the bots instantly think there's a push happening and will try to defend it by grouping. As soon as this happens that's usually it for the laning phase.
I've also managed to get them to group by 3 min by picking Brood. The Spiderling army confuses the hell out of them.

>being a Muslim
just explode yourself fampai
>>144558006
picking techies is also fun, they dont buy sentries to counter mines so every time they push mid you detonate your mines and get a rampage. got like 5+ in one game.

>>144557785
Hey, Blink Dagger Techies worked out extremely well in that game.
Are you guys surviving the league of legends dota 2 free weekend?
All my teams today have been angry teenagers who pick low CD heroes and yell GG and flame after first fight.
I had a broodmother report me for telling him instapicking brood was a bad idea and he wouldn't scale into late game. He didn't. He was still having a spider orgy in the woods while me and the other two carries took throne.
whats the fucking point of the 4 groups at the majors?
why isnt it in like a TI format where there are 2 groups or something
The fact that a team can literally only play 5 games at a valve event for a grand prize of over 1 million dollars is actually bullshit
There are teams that have the possibility of only playing a total of 3 other teams in the entire tournament before getting eliminated
How is this fun to watch or to play? Why arent there big groups where every team has to play every other team at least once or at the very least half of the teams at the tournament
>muh that takes too long
bull-fucking-shit
Theres 2 free days right fucking now without any dota
>muh scrims!
>muh practice!
practice in real game situations by playing more than fucking 5 games the entire tournament

>>144557785
Well blink dagger is an item that gets better the more you have them in your team
>inb4 100 blink daggers
>>144557542
I heard this broxybot meme before but I still don't know wtf it is
how do I search for it
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to have a 3 day break during (DURING A FUCKING WEEKEND) for the majors?
Fuck this piece of shit dead game.

>>144558586
wat
?
All the teams have played 2 BO3's so far, which means many of them played 6 games so far, unless they sucked..
Though yea, having games where they are doing nothing is dumb, but maybe the place is closed on the weekend of something
>>144558006
They can immediately tell which PL is real but not TB and Naga. Very annoying if you want to practice PL.
>>144557785
Considering Keelen's is literally the best item in the game and useful on every hero, I think the bot would be legit.
>>144558586
Because the third team you have to face for elimination is going to be so shitty, you have no excuses if you can't beat them. Look at the fucking teams in a one game elimination, if you can't beat fucking Secret or Complexity, go home.
>>144558945
are you a fucking retard?
complexity could theoretically get eliminated tomorrow after only playing 5 fucking games
why the fuck is the group stage so fucking tiny
just have 2 big groups and have lots of series going at once time like TI or DAC or fucking any tournament that wasnt shit
there was some dotes this morning, Zai + SingSing and friends dumpstered some literal whos, there was trashtalking too
>>144559083
They can also do this for Manta illusions or those from a rune. It's fucking annoying.
They cannot however tell if it's an illusion if you are not near the illusion when they see it. You can use it to bait their ults.

yeah great format
whats even the fucking point of having groups of 4 teams if you dont even play every team in the group? what a fucking waste of time
I just want Artour to win something. Is that too much to ask?

ok guys. i am a staunch believer i you are the only constant,
what can you do as a timber to take enemy base
because in this game it was only thing i felt unable to control
>>144559327
>unless they sucked..
How about you don't lose 5 games in a row then whine about being knocked out huh?
Could they have done a different format and had more games played? Sure
Is it good to watch more and more games of teams like mineski or secret or complexity being stomped? No
why isnt this a thing
>"Demonstrating that MOBA's were more than just Dota with many controversial gameplay decisions such as: Focusing the laning phase on fighting against another player by making big mana pools, lower cooldowns for "spammier abilities" and different resource types instead of passively "denying" minions in lane while just last hitting Trying to de-clutter the environment to focus on the relevant gameplay space by removing destructible terrain, day & night cycles, etc Making the game more team oriented vs. hyper carry dominant with items, stats role and champ design A full roster of completely unique characters Adding summoner spells and some out of game progression to try to add interesting depth at the meta layer and out of game decision making / analysis"

>>144559637
why
>>144559327
Losing five games in a row is a pretty fucking good sign of SUCKING MAJOR ASS SECRETFAG.

>>144558586
>The fact that a team can literally only play 5 games
I'm going to assume the obvious here and that you, by game, mean a whole best-of-x series. Then a team could still play:
>10 games in open qualifier
>4 games in main qualifier groups
>4 games in main qualifier playoffs
>3 games in Manilla Group Stage
>7 games in Manilla Main Event
That's 28 sets of games lad.
