What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Yeah cause EU dota has really stepped up these past two TI's against chinks :^)
>>145158883
Nothing. TL has perfected one of the relevant starts of current patch. It is literally four STR right click cores.
>>145158880

RTZ was making 10k a month, meaning 120k a year, which is a comparable number.

is rank calibration bullshit?
I just got out of a game and had some questions about it.
http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2428366462
I was AA and the utter retard was Sniper, he was obviously a beginner and low skilled.
But at the end of the game his mmr was 4150
while mine is 3924(it was around 3300 when I first calibrated).
He didnt own a compendium so the mmr reset isnt a possiblity.
So what gives? How did he calibrate to a higher mmr than me while being utterly shit at the game? Account buyer? But who sells 4k accounts?

At the risk of sounding like an assblasted Americuck, Lifestealer is so fucking boring to watch when he's strong enough to be meta.
>>145159002
Bat was picked first, but yeah, it was their fault not banning Oracle imo.
>>145158762
No idea, I haven't really played the game in like a year
>>145158782
there are no buybacks in League so after a big teamfight one side is usually fucked and the other team can just do what they want, so there isn't much interesting happening
>>145158850
but I don't want to watch ingame because I do other things while watching :(
>>145159043
It's almost like a f-free win?
So what is Lifestealer? How can the little strength buff make him OP? I suppose he was already underrated in 6.86?
>>145158659
Because the last time they tried something like that they missed shit happening on the map.
how do you beat Slardar Lifestealer?
>>145159041

They're gonna swap Centaur's and Slardar's stumps. It's for the best.

I thought that was their weakness

>>145159276
Yes.
>>145159230
God please no. Leave my slardar alone. Its not his fault naix is ridiculous right now

>>145159041
4.1k means that he is a retard so his mmr and his mental capacity correlates
good players dont start until like mid 5k if even at that, still plenty of retards that just picked doom for 800games and still are terrible
but 100% guaranteed if your mmr starts with 4 and you try a lot to rank up it mreans you are dogshit at the game, and its okay to be dogshit

I'll give you TL but if you think OG is not presenting some world elite dota, you seriously have a shitty impression of what good dota is supposed to be.
