Annie 'AnneeDroid' LeClair

Though relatively new to the professional Dota 2 casting scene, Annie has been following Dota for over 4 years. Her journey into commentary started at the beginning of 2015, and she hasn't looked back since. She's attended several events as a spectator, including TI4 and ESL New York 2015, but found her break out moment at the recent TI6 Qualifier Hub at the BTS Studio. Annie received amazing support from the community and is now moving into casting full time. She will be joining the Moonduck team as a lead play by play commentator.


thanks reddit, Dota 2 is fucking dead.

agree completely on every point. there are bugs that have existed for years, incomplete things they could easily fix and features that should've been added by ti3 that still aren't there. they made literally hundreds of millions with this game but decided to only have 3 people working on it since ti2. and the retarded community fucking defended it too

dota is dying precisely because of this.

There is nothing that can't be solved with more manpower behind the project.

People complaining about toxicity? Make carebear no-chat queue.

As is, there are like 10 people working on a game that rakes in millions every month, and Valve is just the top fucking Jew for not putting more behind it.

And if you think the kids playing LuL aren't toxic, you're mistaken.

Currently we are being raided by Activision Blizzard-hired shills, who are endlessly shitposting and trying to throw shit on Dota 2 and Valve, on Dota 2 general.

As the pool of shills are the same of JIDF and similar Israel controlled "creative marketing" institutions, they are also trying to devalue and shit on /pol/ while mis-using terms such as goy and calling Valve Jews to diminish its true meaning.

They are focusing hard on trying to portray Valve as Jews and Dota 2 base as "goys" for whatever reason they can, on a true Free to Play game that makes its revenue only through pixel cosmetics.

They are provoking people into shitposting and chaos by blatantly deceitful and provoking posts. They are calling people who enjoy the game valve drones.

Please report and ignore these posts for a better gulag experience, thank you.

dear d2g,

i need you to help me with a cross promotion with tf2. before the international of 2016, we need to conceptualize and implement a tf2 hero into dota 2. he would be something tf2 players can relate to, ideally using a core concept from that game like explosive jumping or damage falloff.

unfortunately valve is a small indie development firm, and we need the community to supply our updates. so let's hear those concepts.

GA is usually popped to save a core, being able to go ahead and kill that core anyway makes GA far less of a nuisance

Omni still has a grotesque winrate even in highest bracket so that goes to show how effective that counter is

Yeah it's pretty easy to pretend you can counter omni with diffusal, but apparently the laning stage of the carry who never died once for 20 minutes isn't important for the d2g profis.

omni's actually shit in lane

if he's babysitting he's behind in levels and farm which he needs desperately
>>
>>147943736
you need to understand what makes a hero good and bad. for example:
skeleton king is a pretty stable carry with a FREE aegis but it requires him to have mana to be able to use it. if you first pick him the enemies will probably go all out with lion, kotl, AM or phantom lancer. counter picking you.
basically you need to be good to understand when to pick heroes. alternatively you can learn to itemise in such a way as to counter their counterpicks.

Play with lane dominators, then while you're at advantage but can't take highground farm their jungle, while your pos 1 or 2 are in yours, get pickoffs, get your advantage even bigger. Simple if you're not below 4k.

I keep having to pick position 4, usually a roamer or jungler. I want to git gud at Beastmaster jungle because he's decent right now and I have a good set for him.

Let's say I bind Boar to 3 and second boar to 4, and bird to 5 and second bird to 6 (1 is hero, 2 is courier on almost everything and is muscle-memoried at this point. The boar/bird hotkeys are just hypothetical atm). Will 4 always select the boar that was summoned latest? Or if I summon a second boar, will it fill the slot of whatever hotkey isn't active at that point? Or will I have to Ctrl+3/4 every time I summon a new boar?

my flaming is to encourage people to not jungle though, the pro's are rotating in jungle but even at 4K people just want to afk farm in the jungle. this is leading to more losses because honestly who cares if your beastmaster has good farm at 15 minutes game could already be over by then if he's sat there doing nothing

Hi, 2k retard here.
How do i build ebolapope? I mostly build him like heal/aurabitch then aghs then hex then rfo.
I looked up in DB top Necto players and i was surprised.

One of them builds tranquills and blademail every fucking game. I could understand blademail, it gives armor, int and extra damage from active. But tranqs? Necro needs stay alive in teamfight as long as possible to spam heals, but tranqs can't regenerate health when you are IN A MIDDLE OF A FIGHT AND CONSTANTLY GETTING ATTACKED and it doesn't provide any extra mana like arcanes or tankiness like pt. I guess ms is good, even when disabled and armor combined with blade mail is not bad, but you can't spam heal as often as with arcanes or pt tread-switch.

And the second guy from the top of the list buys phase boots. Why? WHY? If you want ms then tranqs+wind lace is the way to go, also bonus armor. But phase gives nothing but shitty +dmg and shitty ms bonus. No extra mana to spam heal, no extra ehp, no int to scale spell dmg. NOTHING.

I don't even care, at least as a support I can show up to early fights and make sure my team doesn't lose incredibly. My preferred type of hero is ultra late game carry, but I think that's a really inefficient way to climb. I think the best MMR grinding hero for me might be Phoenix.

>>147946435
Yeah, I was doing that for the first 35-ish minutes. When they have Lifestealer with an abyssal blade walking around inside of Riki, I couldn't leave the base. My supports did an inadequate job of keeping the map lit up. I remember one time I told Earthshaker we needed vision of roshan (they did it abt 4 times and we didn't contest a single one), and I specifically told him he needed to buy a smoke of deceit in order to ward safely. Does he? No, he walks to rosh and feeds.

When Jugg and Timber pushed mid, our 2 other lanes were pushing in (and we had no T3s), so I would rather defend than push mid, get maybe one of their T3s, then get wiped and raxed

if behavior score is real it's an absolutely retarded idea. Put tilting people with tilting people so they all tilt more, never give them a chance to actually experience a good game so they can get out of their rut. If anything, they should be put with people who don't tilt. That way the tilters will have a higher chance of becoming not tilted and the people who don't tilt would be naturally resistant if their teammate remained toxic. If people are that bad, give them low priority. Don't condemn them to shitty teammates forever.

I do phrase it like that unless my team has tilted the fuck out of me.

All of my talking is strategizing and communicating, and apparently it's keeping me in the shit tier. Life is not fair. People shouldn't play dota if they are unwilling to communicate.
