Can someone explain to me why this shit is actually in the game? It was bad when implemented and at this point the modern memeback mechanics rework achieves the original goal of buyback. Why not remove it?

>>121460072
Oh grow up. Just admit I'm right already, instead of being a petty child. Oracle's wex is only good defensively after laning phase which gives the hero less versatility and synergy and makes him worse. His ult has been nerfed to fuck even tho it wasnt even that op, he has no aghs upgrade, and to supplement not knowing what the fuck he's doing, icefrog gave the hero lower cooldowns, functionally ruining him as a support and saying, "well fuck it run him mid." Do i have to list the amount of support heroes with nukes, heroes that work? Or how about all the overpowered as fuck ultimates in the game that deserved more nerf than one with a 40% winrate?

The play, alliance winning ti3, litterally every goddamed cornerstone of fucking excellence in dota 2 history has the expert castin of this man behind it. He made a fucking studio with some buddies and it ended up being one of the premire studios in dota history and he still is active in casting shit dispite running a freakin empire.

Why is drow so fucking boring

Her E and R have always just been disgraceful, the proximity mechanic on the R bonus is still boring as uninteractive as fuck because you can't stutter kite or do anything interesting mechanically with the hero really. Seriously a fucking fossil of a hero.

>>121463125
There's some glimmer of beauty in it all that you catch a glimpse of every so often. I don't know if it's because it's sad, or gives an impression of simple life, or just that admirable confidence to go about life knowingly being as much of a piece of shit as you can even imagine, but it's there.

Why is Terrorblade's win rate in very high skill still good? I thought he was still bad and his win rate was because of a bug?

Youll be fine desu

when you play meepo, if you want to poof all other meepos you can't just bind all others to one hot key and press w? like, you have to tab over each one?

>>121464219
hellraiker build is hardly ever bad (maelstrom/mjollnir, radiance, blademail with blink for initiation/armlet for tanky)
all around good farming, good fighting and you are less afraid of being kited since if they don't focus you you can burn them down, and if they do focus you you have blademail/maelstrom shield on top.
you don't have to get radiance + maelstrom/mjollnir + blademail, you can take your pick among two of them if you need bkb/ac/abyssal asap, but the general idea is to walk in and force them to bring you down twice

>>121464219
rush radiance/battlefury

>>121464585
you probably can make a bind so you bind all meepos for one, but generally yes you have to tab.
I'd say that getting comfortable with tabbing fast is better tho since you don't allways want to poof all meepos onto another, and not necesarilly your main meepo either

In all seriousness it's pretty bonkers that Dota 2 has had less content than WC3 Dota for its entire lifespan.

A sequel, massively more popular than the original, that has gone from massively inferior to only slightly inferior and is no closer to being complete in the foreseeable future.

If only HoN in its prime was given good graphics (which is a sizeable reason why people play Dota 2 at all) and was backed by steam. People would have a very different perspective on the quality of Dota 2.

literally what are you talking about

people need to realise dota2 IS NOT allstars, it NEVER was

>but why le camps dont le sleep? inferior uncomplete game!!!!
because you based retards icefrog chose to change it, thats it

if something is different from allstars it doesnt mean its a bug or its missing features, it only means the feature was shit and icefrog doesnt want it, tahts it, its 2 different games that started from the same thing

and updates were always like this, you are just spoiled by ported heroes getting added every couple monhts

>>121464832
guides led me to believe otherwise, but i think i get it now. basically what other people were saying was, assign two meepos to one tab, two to another. and then maybe all meepos except main meepo to a third tab. then, if you want to bring just two meepos somewhere, you go to the desired tab with the desired meepos. so pres 2, w, tab, w, 1, blink, for instance for a blink poof.
fuck this is stupid.

sounds reasonable, I allways imagined good meepo players had some customized hotkey setups for easier poof and micro controll. if valve would get off their asses and implement support for hotkey setups for different heroes then I'd might bother to learn meepo myself but I can't be arsed with changing hotkeys everytime I play the hero so I stick to hotkey setups that work for most heroes, occasionally changing some spells out for quickcast/normalcast
gl learning meepo anon.

? i have no idea what are you talking about, are you saying valve should fire icefrog or what, that icefrog demanded valve to change the artstyle or he will leave?

jug and seeker look really good, sure, but now imaigne every SINGLE hero looks just like them because htere is a global forced artstyle, also EVERY SINGLE HAT is tribal shit because else muh artstyle

because wast majority of spells were based on few base ones from wc3 dota

I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering a tent with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. At that point she sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove them one at a time. "Squire, must you pitch another tent so soon?" she says to me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but she kicks my hands away. "You haven't finished yet." I don't understand because I had already removed her armor, but after she gives me a look I realize that she wants me to remove her shoes as well. I take off her shoes and reveal her gorgeous feet, surprisingly soft despite her being a strong warrior, and extremely sweaty. "Lick the sweat off my feet, squire," she commands me. I happily endulge until my raging boner begins to hurt from pressing so hard against my trousers. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." I do so while she does the same. Then, all of a sudden, I feel an inescapable desire to stand still. "FIGHT ME" she screams as she pushes me to the ground and gets on top of me. It's only now that I notice she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that she won't stop until one of us cums. Her technique gets more and more intense until I am unable to hold back. I cum inside her pussy with the force of a hundred megacreeps. She gets off of me, and as I lay there quivering in pleasure she gets dressed and begins to chuckle. "Only 9 inches? Pathetic."

>>121468781

Pick Doom, press W not to die and R to kill enemy hero. Use Q whenever it's off cd to outfarm every hero that' not alchemist.

Grats you won.

Alright, thanks guys, think I got a rough idea of whats going on. I get the impression I have to kill more nowadays than simply rice my way to victory. Its gonna be rough, from experience getting out of 3k is harder than getting out of 4k but hey, whatever.

With scorched earth on you'll heal faster than they do damage.

Doom's so simple, how can you fuck it up. Pre 6 you don't go all in because you most likely won't score kills, you wait for 6, go around trees to avoid vision then W+R for a free kill

>>121469187
you prolly have shit builds
seen plenty of dooms max devour then feed

the whole reason why hes good again is free radiance sny heart, you need to max it asap

dont also rush midas without anything else, get some early game items

wand even pms, maybe basi or upgrade boots
nothing can touch you then, if you know people tped somewhere else you can even just doom someoen and chase them down with radaicne heart and you will kill them for sure

>Pre 6 you don't go all in because you most likely won't score kills,

ok, thats a good tidbit

>>121469474
thank you very much

i usually max devour and scorched earth first

i've been rushing midas, i won't do that anymore i guess
i kinda figured going into treads early was good, that's not good for farm or what?

>>121469542
i dont know about those lol champs, but to answer your question its wr and doom

>i usually max devour and scorched earth first

If you haven't before then max W first, being 2-4-0-1 at lvl7. That's your power spike until you get big items and lvl11. The only way you can die at that point is getting ganked by 2-3 heroes, nothing can kill you 1v1.

ok. thanks

id say treads are the worst boots on him, he just doesnt really benefit from them that much its better to get phase and hit hard

early game phase and wolf aura you will 4 shot supports if you get lucky, and the chase power is amazing

as to midas, it just doesnt matter really if you get it at say 6 (freefarm naked midas) or 10 or something

the one or two uses is not worth not having those early game items that will make you either lane way way better or get kills


ive seen many builds, but the most stompy honestly seems phase into drums, most dooms that balled out of cotnrol in my games went for it then just doomed shitters and dove towers and there is little you can do if you dont tp in with the whole team to save them

>>121460720

I don't understand who Kotlguy is and where he even came from

I just remember my friend saying he cried on Twitter when he didn't get invited to TI and then he did

Do you think the non-player personalities got into the scene by being talented? It's a huge circlejerk and you're not getting in unless you know someone.

The pro scene has a serious problem with cronyism and exclusion of potential female talent is an important subset of that. I don't expect these "studios" run by male nerds to clean it up but Valve should take a certain level of responsibility with their own events by rewarding those who promote values I'm sure Valve generally would support.

its a golem made by LD to host and cast for him

no one ever saw him sleep for example and you can see his eyes get more soulles with each event

he will finally break at one lan and its not gonna be pretty, if anyone is going to frankfurt it would be wise to sit far from the stage so you have a meat shield in front

Any good guides or resources on how to not just bumble around aimlessly in the mid/lategame?
