Did you forget about us?
1st for drow=BEST WAIFU EVER
>>145427308
Icefrog sure did
is arc warden good
what's the skill build and general plan of playing him
whats the shadow fiend build now boys? 1 point in potdl at 4 worth it with the extra souls?
right now im going:
bottle->treads->aquila->sblade->bkb->SEdge->butterfly (altho its more open to change than the rest of my items)
i forgot how much fun he can be, also theres nothing better than going up vs a mid whos dozing off for the first 2 or 3 waves and then wakes up and realizes "shit, i just lost the lane"
you can just take advantage of the fact that most pubbers suck at laning, particularly early laning
i really hope he comes back to the scene, altho he does get raped by slark and naix
Is the new splash aoe noticeably better?
>another thread just for me
time to get comfy
>>145427621
nah
i was laning with her earlier and it felt basically the same, altho im sure there were some edge cases i hit that i wouldnt have hit making my laning a little bit more suffocating than it was in the past
its one of those things that you might not NOTICE, but its definitely gonna help you win your lane more
Tell me about Bane. Why does he wear the mask?
filename time gogogogo
Reminder that death prophet did NOT deserve ANY nerfs
Alright check this shit out

what does valve even do all day?
like remember when we used to get constant bug fixes, new heroes, new content, new events, client improvements monthly a few years ago?
what went wrong? should them making more money mean they can make more stuff?
>>145428213
>implying
>>145428796
more money means they can go on more vacations
>>145428796
im sure your memory is just shitty iah
>>145428334
I really like the game. I play Meepo, NP, Lycan, Lone Druid, Storm, and QE Invoker.
It feels nice to not be alone. At least while the game lasts.
>>145428796
Insiderbro here, Valve are dedicating the entire 200 man dota team on VR and high poly models. Waifus are the future according to Gaben. Expect some demos early 2017.
>this cs go drama
glad we just get roster change drama desu
>>145428334
the fact that dota is an irritant lets you know that its not the same watered down McDonald's "competition" you get from Overwatch/LoL/etc
competition should be frustrating
>>145429093
What's going on?
>>145429093
Did the cheating leak turn out to be true?
>>145429179
guy posts leaks about teams roster changes, some people couldn't have predicted easily and before any reporter leaked it.
then he leaks the teams fucking map bans for a tournament.
then he lists pros that he says have / are 100% cheating. Says only NiP have won a major without cheating.
>>145429194
if the renegades shit turns out to be true this has got to be almost confirmed.
>>145428869
She didn't and you know it. She was literally fine and balanced. Now she is in the dumpster.
>>145429340
why is cheating so prevalent in csgo but not dota/lol/sc2/memestone
am I shadow banned? where my (You)s?
Is there a reason JoinDOTA events dont show up on GOSUGAMERS list?
>>145429648
you ever play cs?
>>145429648
CSGO is an FPS and aimbots are literally substitutes for skill. No other genre has that really.
>>145428895
I don't know
>>145429704
Just use VPgame
>>145429340
Where can i read about this? Sounds like fun
>>145429648
sc2 has a lot of cheating in online quals, but it's really obvious when someone does cheat.
in cs go it's bad because
>the pros know valve / tournaments wont do shit even if they get caught
>aimbots literally play the game for you, whilst in other games cheats usually just give you info that you have to play off, i.e. you can still fuck up whilst cheating in other games
>it's really hard to tell if someone is cheating in most cases. In other games you can see someone clearly saw something in fog, or like the PA crit hack is just blatantly obvious. In cs go, there will always be people that will just say 'he isn;t cheating he is just that good'
>>145429912
the guy deleted his reddit account, but here is an archive
https://web.archive.org/web/20160614013524/https://www.reddit.com/user/Yee_lmao1
>>145429340
any links where I can read up on this?
I find it hilarious that people cheat in esports. If cheating turns out to be true in CSGO then a game like overwatch might take away its spot in the esports scene.
How do we fix Gustav? Reminder this guy will always pick QoP in an elimination match.
Is Naga meta? Or is she shit?
>>145429951
>PA crit hack is just blatantly obvious
dude how do you know they're not just that good?
>>145430109
It's just as easy to cheat in overwatch, it's just an FPS thing, see >>145429951
Very easy to have a bot do mechanical tasks like headshotting for you, but decision-making you have to do for yourself
>>145430109

>>145430073
> If cheating turns out to be true in CSGO then a game like overwatch might take away its spot in the esports scene.
he is literally saying multiple world champs for cs go have won because of cheats. Bearing in mind that cs go just had a significant drop in player numbers, and it's tv league is getting shit ratings whilst it's twitch numbers are also somewhat declining. if this shit is true cs go will be dead in a year.

>>145427216
jesus christ, this game just isn't fucking fun anymore.
I recently started playing other games again after only playing dota 2 for years, and I fucking forgot that video games are supposed to be fun. I am so used to this fucking shit ass community and garbage fucking players that every time I'm playing another game, I expect everyone to die one time, throw a temper tantrum, and then repeatedly kill themselves on purpose for no reason. I forgot what it's like to play with WHITE PEOPLE and have everybody on the team speak ENGLISH. I realized I don't need this fucking stupid game anymore and its retarded mechanics that make the game fun for only 50% of the people playing and living hell for the other 50%. I'm done playing draining hour long dota games rather than sets of matches that last only 7 minutes with time for breaks, or single player games that I can pause and come back to. Dota 2 is a fucking shit ass game and I'm only now realizing that after playing it exclusively for so many years. Valve is running this game into the ground and I'm fucking leaving this garbage pile. Why play games that are only fun half the time? I can play games that are fun all the time.

GET A LOAD OF THIS SHITTER
Condolences dotards. You had a good run.
>>145430512
yay new pasta
>>145430530
what happened dude, did you settle your beef with cybormatt
>>145429861
Region locking the trash heap that is south america would fix 90% of that
Dota isn't the problem, spics are
>>145430342
for me the real sign that esports is becoming big is when schalke04 announced that they would have esports teams, this include LoL and Dota2 but not CSGO.
Clubs like that have lots of influence and deep pockets that can make the esports scene huge. CS:GO not getting picked up by them raises a pretty big flag.

theres no way once tourneys start happening that people continue to take the game seriously
its completely broken

No, it only involves removing shit skins and having a mechanically interesting game. Try again fucking dotard.

>>145430512
Play them because they are challenging. It's a competitive game that's supposed to be hard, like any other sport or game, (chess, hockey, soccer, go, etc) If you want to win all the time go play some hand holder pokemon game or lawn bowling.

If you're jungling you need to constantly be looking for ganks, courier snipes, counterganks, and runes.
Offlane NP can fuck with safelane if you're not fucking awful at micro
Really easy decision-making: can my TP make a fight into a 2v1, 3v2, 4v3, etc.
If yes, then fucking TP, win the fight, and push with team. Otherwise, continue farming and don't build retard items

>100 mana cost 50 cooldown 15 duration
>Your hero becomes metal form, gaining a barrier that absorbs the next 750 damage of any type and forces you to minimum 100 movespeed. Movement speed is restored if barrier is broken or buff expires
>>145434236
>+5 All attributes
>+200 Strength
Items like these will probably never be added thoug because they're too slot efficient when compares with others.
>>145431278
>name one multiplayer game that is competitive, mechanically more interesting, and has a better community
Tekken, street fighter, chess, quake live, even shit like overwatch is better. The games are actually FUN. They don't involve doing autism shit for the first 10 minute of every game while having shitskins on your team and being forced to work with them because of "team-based online multiplayer xD" meme.
>>he thinks removing skins would change the community
>he can't read
>>145434236
That item needs to be 9,000 gold for it to be balanced. you're pretty retarded.
>>145434236

Who is icefrog?
>>145434362

WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DO
REMINDER THAT TWITCH IS DYING BETTER JUMP SHIP TO HITBOX WHILE YOU CAN KEK
>>145434618
They merged lol and dota
>>145434535
You're right. I don't like games where I am forced to click gay animals for 10 minutes. This is mechanically boring, stupid, repetitive, and an insult to my intelligence. If you are stupid and autistic enough to derive enjoyment from clicking gay animals as they are about to die, for 25+ minutes of every 35 minute long match, then I guess "epic MOBAs xD" are the right genre for you. For everyone else who isn't a braindead plebeian, there are better games to be played.
>>145434236
ive long thought there should be a consumable item that grants invulnerability for a short period of time with some kind of disadvantage like slowed movement speed
i'm gonna stick with wanting that over this. design just seems a bit muddled and i think my idea to do a super defensive item as a consumable is better
>>145434362
Why not play lol?
Seems like the game that you are describing with all that autismo perfectly designed game that matches exactly like ur fedora.
>>145434686
Ye you get it man
>>145434674
uh
>>145434558
>posting in thread for a ded game losing more active players per day than any other game in the entire world
>calls other games "ded"
The number of american players who still play this game is 3 little red dots on the activity map. you realize that, right? every other player of the game is a shitskin playing in a 3rd world cafe.
Question, when does the battlepass end?
I'd really love the Immortal Gardens. I'd hate to pay for it, if it was 20 ok but 50 bucks fuck no.
So how much grinding do I have to do to get to level 125 without paying any more than the money I spent to buy the battlepass to begin with?

Why is the dead game meme so easy to get (Yous) with dotard?
Tell me, why?
>>145434936
I like farming though
Techies hasn't been touched since 6.85 only indirectly nerfed since. Picked 5 times since 6.86, once as a joke. Looks like icefrog forgot about the boys :C

what's wrong with a Razer Naga?
>>145435293
It's Nanako Dojima
Anyone else here knows that both Secret and EG are going to fail because you're above 4k mmr? The reason being:
EG
1. PPD is a bad drafter (Sumail's storm and Auis techies literally carried them in TI)
Secret
1. 2 greedy players, RTZ and EE.
2. EE in general (literally the next xboct)
>>145435837
I really don't get this whole "We'll learn to counterplay it by not banning it." shit that PPD and Puppey do.
It's a fucking Phoenix sunray what are you going to counterplay it with when you got no blink daggers. The only spell that can hit Phoenix from a safe distance to stop sunray is glimpse and you need vision for that. Same goes for not banning Wisp against teams who have good Io players, good Io players tend to only give you 1 of a chance to interrupt that Relocate save. Stop thinking you or your players are wunderkinds who will stop it every time.
>>145434850
You literally cannot get to level 125 without paying money unless you win the rigged lina fireball shit or everyone tips you in very single game for no reason
>>145435837
Secret also has the greediest 4pos player.
Puppen's ingame greed doesn't really work out well for them either. Only works with supports who actually can generate that wealth, but doom continuously gets nerfed.
Direct invites to TI6:
1. Liquid
2. OG
3. Newbee
4. LGD
5. MVP Phoenix
6. Fnatic
7. Navi
8. VGR
9. Alliance
10. EG
>>145435837
There are already dozens of qualifier assassins looking to knock out EG and Secret
>>145436279
>EG
Why would you choose to be deliberately wrong?
>>145436279
1. Liquid
2. OG
3. Newbee
everyone else needs to go through qualifiers
The curent EE is shit. The C9 EE used to be excellent at scouting with his illusions or his wolves, and was godlike at farming enemy jungle. The current EE can only play ember
>>145436358
they still TI5 champ even they so fking shit right now
When is
3rd major, and where?
TI and where?
4th major and where?
>>145436419
But they roster swapped.
Fear said it himself on twitter that they're going through the open qualifiers.
>>145436358
There's also a rule saying that TI winner is guaranteed to be invited
>>145436279
Navi is same tier with DC now

>>145436510
They place higher at Manila. Navi also places second at one premier event and one major event this year
why is this allowed
>>145436567
Will EG be able to make their way through the open qualifier minefield of qualifier assassins?
>>145436785
but NA qualifier only got Col and DC
>>145436785
Even if they make it through opens I'm pretty sure CoL or DC (if not invited) has their number in the regionals.
>>145436785
no, team is too unstable now
sumail not even playing his signature heroes is hurting the team
i don't even know why teams pick garbage prophet instead of being flexible with the draft.
manila major was a shitshow of who is getting phoenix sladar first
I think one of Vega VP Empire will get invited. But which one?
post yfw league is finally dying
what went wrong /d2g/?
>all NA teams are dumpster tier
>can't draft, can't play together
>literally copying other regions without understanding the why

What were the dankest memes of the Manilla Major?
>>145440506
For the mana regen + lifesteal as he jungles.
Even with tread swapping and bfury AM will run out of mana while going from jungle camp to jungle camp. The mana regen from Vlads will keep you at 80%+ mana the whole time while tread swapping and jungling
plus lifesteal so you can farm the enemy's stacks (if they have them).

>>145440768
You don't get it every game but it does have it's value on AM
>>145440506
vlads is the only source of lifesteal that am can get. It lets him clear stacks, ancients and solo rosh. Vlads also give a tiny bit of armor that am is lacking compared to other agi carries. Also ensures that you will never run out of mana.
Post funny dota events :^)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef5fye5kblM
>>145440768
It has everything he needs to sustain himself in jungle (after he gets a BF I mean) until he's six slotted.
Conversely if he has a rough lane he can get a Vlads a lot easier than a BF, go jungle, and then get a BF although his sustain and clear time will be sub par.

Leshrac mainer here
Ive been trying to think of a way to fix this godawful piece of crap so that he still scales properly into the late game like he should and has the same strengths/weaknesses, but isn't as bad
Help me balance pls.
New skill replacing lightning storm
Tendrils of agony
Toggle
Mana upkeep 40 per second, 75 for activation
Leshrac sends out rays of red shit, that cause his spells to do bonus damage to heroes for each instance of damage that hits them. Stacks unlimited times, triggers every second. Lasts 25 seconds
Bonus Damage - 0.75%/1.00%/1.25%/1.50% per instance of damage done by Leshrac
>>145441285
I could probably get to High Skill if I fuckin new how to farm efficiently. But I suppose my lack is the reason I'm Normal and not High.
>>145441234
Very very useful if you're against a lane bully who would otherwise deny all your last hits.
>>145441360
>tfw you're building a BF irl
>>145441420
Haha fuck no that ability sounds cancer incarnate. You either make it weak as shit or it's gonna be broken as fuck. He has 3 great abilities he doesn't need a fourth ability, lern 2 balance you never give a hero 4 awesome abilities you get 2 great and 2 okay, 3 great and 1 bad or 3 meh and 1 amazing ult.

Leshrac excels at long team fights, pushing and farming. He is a pretty bad ganker though far from the worst, scales well with farm.
However he has trash armour, trash stats, is item dependent and lacks the fire-power of a 6.88 mid hero. He also loses to bkb
This amplifies his strengths to a large degree, but his weaknesses still exist. He now has no way to set up his stun either, making it worse.
The build would still be euls bloodstone, aghs would be an option as well
The other option would be making his lvl 4 stun basically a lvl 1 lion ult I think. At the moment, his stun is mediocre, edict is great, lightning is rubbish, pulse Nova is great

>>145442038
Hes not the best, but can work in certain lineups. His main problem is that he has no hp.
I recommend buying a bracer for some extra hp. Maybe even upgrading it to drums because your carry should not buy drums. Get your arcanes and magic wand, maybe get a raindrop if they have magic nukers. Then save for your blink dagger. After that, youre set. Maybe get a lens or aghs/refresher if you want to push more.

First it deals bonus damage and then it makes some of your damage turn into damage over time and your base attack is weaker.

>>145443995
it doesn't deal any bonus damage immediately, it deals a bonus % of your damage every second after it hits
a 400 magic damage nuke makes someone lose 300 hp normally
with sickle it makes them lose an additional 9 hp/s for 10 seconds
any time you deal any damage to an enemy hero it deals an extra 30% spread over the next 10 seconds

Nah I just straight up wasn't farming. I probably missed 2k total but I only missed about 300~ worth of gold from missing last hits, mostly early when I was solo against a Lifestealer and Tide.
This game went a bit different. I got great freefarm and my WD stacked for me, but then the enemy team just decided to go full shutdown mode. They kept taking my stacks, diving, ganking the shit out of me, could have gotten a 5 man wipe but nobody reacted so me and WD just died under tower while Doom got away with 3hp, wasn't going great, but then Timber absolutely destroyed them the next few teamfights, memeback gold when I killed Zeus and I was back in the game.
Was 70 last hits at minute 10 but only 130 at minute 30 just because they bottled me up extremely hard. So I think I recovered pretty good, but still I can't seem to get the timing down for stacking with a ranged creep. What is the time? 53, 54 and 55 never seemed to work for me but once and just the fact I have to remember to tab over is something I forget to do when the clock hits 50.

HOW TO FIX TECHIES IN 6.89:
Land mines replaced with construct sentry guns
>Like TF2 sentries, can be upgraded with more skills / ehp / dps and build multiple sentries
>Sentries burrow to become invisible and can be unburrowed to ambush with high dps
>Sentries are constructed at level 1, upgrade/repair with a subability to rank 2/3/4
>Rank 1: can burrow/unburrow
>Rank 2: has aoe splash damage
>Rank 3: burst of extra attack speed on first 5 attacks on a cooldown
>Rank 4: gains rocket bash that stuns on a cooldown
>(Sentry guns are tanky, high dps immobile units, but aren't magic immune)
>(Sentry guns have 200 vision radius while burrowed, 800 unburrowed)
Stasis Trap replaced with Stasis Tripwire
>Strings a line between any two objects, be it mines, sentry guns, trees, wards, buildings, minefield sign
>Any unit that crosses the tripwire is stunned for 1 second, then it explodes in an aoe and stuns for a further 1/2/3/4 seconds (2/3/4/5 total)
>Can only be defused by destroying either end of the line, and is invisible but revealed by truesight
>Stasis Tripwires give no vision
Suicide squad attack mana cost and cooldown removed, but now has a fuse and is even more powerful
>0 mana cost 0 cooldown
>has a 3 second fuse when activated that visibly makes techies glow red before he explodes, but can be toggled off for mind games
>now also deals a % of max hp as damage, stuns, slows enemy attack and movement speed and deals a damage over time for a few seconds
Remote mines now have an activation delay, but lowered mana cost and cooldown
>Takes 1 second to activate before they explode and they become visible in the last 0.3 seconds.
>Cooldown from 10 to 8
>Mana cost from 200/240/300 to 200/200/200
>No longer gives vision when invisible. Gives vision of its AoE for the 0.3s before exploding

Safer entrances to their side. Radiant has a better jungle layout but it's more dangerous. The upper mid camp can see entrace from side towards top, the large camp has an inherent juke spot and breaks into base really fast. Ancient ward is fuckign GOAT- lane, juke trees, ancient, and side entrance to large camp.
The big one though. Roshan baby! With how prevalent buybacks are, and how much they afford teh defenders to hold ground, having an extra life on a core for the attackers is huge. It's more fair to Rad now, especially compared to older maps, Rosh is alwas going to be the cornerstone of professional play. Radiant's winrate can normally be attributed to a better camera angle, and a better jungle and an infinitely offlane.
esports are over and everyone is blogposting

stacking the 2 radiant mid camps to like 4-5 so that your mid can clear them

Alright techies is just outright abandoned at this point. How do we rework this fucker to be somewhat viable without wasting the assets of the custom spells from his arcana?

Oh right, that fucking mid camp by river has like a 4 second leash now. That's actually when I quit playing SF and switched to SS, I already outfarmed the other mid and that camp stack would put me over the edge in terms fo item progression. I thought you meant something about party q'ing by memestack

i dont see any reason why dota would fail now. aside from some of the hats being fucking disgusting theyre doing a pretty good job.
>>145447340
Remove him from the game.
He's not Dota. If we absolutely, positively have to keep him, make his mines semi visible within 325 range or something so unawares can still feed while competent players don't have to spend 4k on wards or risk buying a gem just to not die.
Invisibility is a mechanic that has to be justly balanced otherwise you have op heroes like Riki who are permanently invisible and can become invulnerable for 5 seconds.

Dota slowly dies down. No big implosions or something. The playerbase will start declining slowly at first, but as more people leave it will speed up exponentionally. After a certain point when there are not enough players anymore valve stops organising tournaments and the game is declared clinically dead. This will take a couple of years (5 years maximum)
>>145447385

>>145446637
Focus on your own mistakes and how you can improve. You can improve your teammates, you're the only one you can depend on.
Pick high impact heroes and play your best, that's all you can do.Play captain's mode, people communicate more there and seem like they want to win.

>>145447340
Here are the FUNDAMENTAL issues of Techies:
1. Land mines are redundant once you get Remotes
2. No non-ultimate ability should ever have >60 second cooldown (also applies to TB)
3. Shitty overall stats - damage, attack point, BAT, hp, movespeed, mana, and armor
4. Incredibly level hungry but very few ways to get the levels as a support despite not being great as a core
5. Delays the inevitable outcome of a game, win or lose, by 20 minutes
Techies needs to lose the useless as fuck (except in trench games) suicide attack. Land mines need to be changed to have some kind of synergy with stasis traps. Anyone with more than 200 techies games pre-March 2016 banned.

It has now been confirmed, by multiple sources, that Omar Mateen, the shooter in the Orlando massacre, was himself gay. He frequently visited the same club that he committed the massacre in, and he attempted to initiate dates on a famous gay-dating app.
Additionally, he was born and raised in America.
His wife, father and community have all claimed that he was not religious in the slightest.
Multiple eyewitness reports indicate that he would get drunk at the very club he committed the massacre in, and would have to be kicked out because of his unruly behavior.
Colleagues and acquaintances have mentioned that he was a loner, a social introvert, and prone to make violent statements and threats against other people.
His wife left him because he beat her and was physically abusive.
Yet, the media continues to ask questions about 'radical Islam' and about Islam's stance on homosexuality. What blatant hypocrisy!
He wasn't a 'radical Muslim'.
He was a mentally deranged psychopathic American closet homosexual who was battling with his sexual identity.
Instead of concentrating on his mental issues, and on the easy gun laws that our country is notorious for, politicians and media pundits wish to cast all of that aside, and choose the easier target of questioning his faith, and of Islam's stance on sexual issues.
The guy was mental, plain and simple. Islam's stance on homosexuality is IRRELEVANT to this massacre, period.

I'm a pretty bad (2k) player and I'm aware of it. I'm obviously trying to improve. I almost always play in a stack with my friends so I can communicate fine, but they're all a lot better and more experienced than me. I've tried playing some solo queue games but I just can't cope. I can see so many horribly wrong things which my team do and yet they still do way better than me. I feed most of the time. In lane, I try play around my unpredictable and usually idiotic lane partner, but I usually end up just as unpredictable and idiotic. I try and play smart and I end up getting fucked by random shit that shouldn't - from my experience - be happening.
Everyone around me is fucking retarded but they're always better than me. Send help.

actually a method, do you remember when 5.5k MMR was the top of the bell? now it is 7.5 (median value)

Easiest way to win is to grind a shitton of games and avoid FOTM heroes.
What I did was not focus on autistic broken heroes like sniper/troll or later on lesh or invoker. I usually play lc offlane dual lanes to punish slark/spec, solo mid pretty much anything besides invoker, carry anything and I support Lion/rasta(stopped working at 5k)/wd.
most important thing is play a lot of games mb 5-8 a day for a couple of weeks so you remove any kind of reaction delay and are fluid in your actions. i find that gives you improved decision making. other than that you just have to become generally good no other tip.
i calibrated at 4300, but wasnt interested in the number at first so cant say. but I dont have time to play as much. planned on hitting 6k and climbed pretty easily but got bored when new patch hit. i guess now there's mb 5000 or more 5k players right?

>>145453020
as i said i play pretty much anything. i guess im the best on offlane lc and 4 roles.
when im like 200mmr more than avg i take mid or carry but its not as fun as other roles. anyway once i hit like 5500 i only came across autistic 6-7k russians in my team so core roles were taken by them.

Not all of them, most of the high level players are versatile enough to be able to play at least 3 roles. Not everyone is Badman and it shows, given how quickly he lost his leading position in the mmr leaderboard.

>>145453880
Roaming is not necessarily support, and if your definitions are so broad then why even bother?
Not to mention that having a dedicated JUNGLER role is fucking terrible and easily countered. And how many people do you think will queue for position 5 roles?
League role queue is relevant because there is literally only one way to play the game.
Seriously, this is an awful idea that only serves to stifle the game's creativity

I'm 5k and that problem never affects me. Dota should aim to cater to the higher level of players so that people have something to aspire to. If the game was balanced towards 3k level then half the heroes and items would probably not even exist.

i think i haven't EVER seen people fighting for roles and throwing tantrums in my 5k games
there is a reason ppl are under 4k and its not always pressing buttons
>These arcana vote choices.
I'm already disappointed.
>>145454101
>And how many people do you think will queue for position 5 roles?
So you rather start faster and lose than wait more and actually have a chance at winning?
>Seriously, this is an awful idea that only serves to stifle the game's creativity
Then just make it farm position queue, there will always be limited amount of farm on the map unless icefrog goes full retard.
This queue only serves so that people stop fighting over carry/mid and then feeding because they don't know how to play support.
>>145454271
im busy right clicking teammates to check if i have anyone muted so I can dodge in time
When's the next chest coming out, lads?

They have this rolequeue in league and its killing their game you 2k shitstain
>people unironically discussing the possibility of role queue
ummmmmmmmmmmmm
>>145454285
i originally calibrated at 2.5k and now im 4.9k and the change in peoples attitude is really obvious.
in lower mmr every other game you had some autist that just went completely INSANE if everything didnt happen exactly like he wanted. flaming the entire game, spam pinging, going afk and all that.
some people just have terrible personalities that hold them back from getting mmr, i have no idea how they function in real life
>>145454367
Not really, what's killing the game is League being a shit fucking game, you 1k shitstain.
>be tiny mid

most popular game in the world is being destroyed by its role queue, maybe you should go play that?

dynamic queue is the thing killing it
but i agree adding roles to matchmaking would be retarded
>>145454080
>complete fucking shitshow
Literally never saw this in 4k. I feel like this whole "toxic community" or "mid or feed cyka" is an ancient garena meme or something parroted by /v/ and others.

How does role queue even work? If you queue as support are you locked into picking a hero Riot flags as a "support?" What if you want to support with a hero that isn't normally played as a support?
>>145454562
So why do you want features from a shit game?

>Check the scoreboard

..ok
>>145454705
Its obvious you don't have any idea what you're talking about and a role queue would kill this game. Maybe you should stop getting triggered over peruvians in your 2k bracket fighting over mid.
Someone explain to me this "memeback" thing. Did buyback change in some way or form that turned it into a meme? I did not play for a long time. And even when I did I did not understand much.

Yes, it's so obvious, what a great argument. Maybe you should stop posting if you can't say anything and I told you already it doesn't have to be a literal role queue, it can be farm priority queue or something entirely different, like hero pool queue.
>>145454885
Bad players excuse for losing when they feed like idiots.
>>145454987
Literally for what purpose
>>145454931
It also used to be a lot better, before this shit altogether.

is it still possible to hit 5k with support only?
>>145455061

This is an awful meme honestly
>>145454987
farm priority queue is literally the same as a role queue, and hero pool queue? Just fuck off with your awful game ruining ideas.

Motherfuckers you are the only constant. Im only 5k and i feel like Neo in the Matrix when i play in under 4k mmr games.
>>145455058
So, people stop fucking picking cliff Furion, LC 1-1-1 lanes.
>>145455085
But it did used to be good. Remember when you had to pay for it? Remember the lack of 3rd worlders? It was amazing.
>>145455130
Doesn't happen outside of 2k.
>>145455105
Another great argument, kill yourself already dumb fuck.
>>145455084
good support in 5k games has most impact on the game. i dunno why the fuck people dont realise this
>>145455149
If third worlders are so bad how come our guy Jimmy Ho is forming a team with them?
>>145455164
Sure thing buddy.
>>145455084
I did, played a lot of support, lots of disruptor and lion. Good supporting with proper rotations and warding is very, very useful
>>145455164
I don't think role/farm priority queue is the answer, but that shit happens like 1 out of every 5 games in EUW 4k.

>yuros are this easy to trigger
>>145454545
It actually happens at lower rating were most people are at.
We should not think that because some people are at a lower rating they deserve having their game ruined; a friend of mine tried out dota and after 4 games of russians ruining his game one way or another he thought dota was just a bad game, cannot blame him.
>>145449487
was that a groupie? context?
>>145455250
I'm the queue poster and I agree. I'm just sick of this shit happening and if you can come up with a better way to stop it then all the better.

>>145455472
The only way is to get better at the game to the point where you stop playing with fucking retards. The player quality drastically improves at the 5k mark.
>>145455512
what about playing the game and git gud?
>>145455553
So spam LC every game until 5k? Gotcha.
>>145455084
Yeah good luck with that shit when you're sub 4k
From 4k on it's very much possible I think but the trench will never allow you to win consistently with support
That's my experience anyway
>>145451247
Are you mad bro?

no dude its not that simple. you have to firstly understand how the hero works at a level which counters the current meta. you can rape at any level with any hero but find what works for you first and dont autopilot games.

Nah you're just shit at playing him
>>145456050
I never played him tho, but this is what usually happens as a rule, if he's on the enemy or my team.
what if you could play ranked only after completing all hero challenge
what if the more sf dies the bigger his soul cap becomes
>>145456176
You would be surprised how compliant people are with suggestions so long as they're not shit. Try asking your team mates to pick heroes with more disables

I do, man, you're assuming too much.
I am looking at pro Juggernaut games on Dotabuff. Why are they opting to put points into attributes instead of maxing their skills first? Is it really that not worth it to level up the increased crit strike chance?
