>>144585378
She has a shitload of early nuking power and an initiation spell, you have to be aggressive and jump on fuckers and kill them when they least expect it. Rush a fast Orchid, pray that your supports put up good wards, and solo-kill fuckers with Blink -> Silence -> Scream -> Shadow Strike and/or Sonic Wave, and right-click them down while chasing and hoping you did enough damage for the burn to finish them off. Before Orchid, show up to teamfights and nuke down the entire enemy team with your ultimate whenever you can.

QoP is literally one of the few heroes in the game that can actually build Bloodthorn, just don't be a retard and rush it right after Orchid, build up other shit that you might need first depending on the situation, like Agh's, BKB, Scythe and maybe even stuff like Linken's if the enemy has a strong targeted disable they can use on you during ganks or teamfights.

But like everyone else already said, dominate lane and then snowball out of control and get your gold by farming heroes. You can't afford to AFK farm because you start out really strong and rely on keeping the enemy down in order to keep that edge, so don't do shit like build Midas or whatever.

>>144586197

it is easy to lose with zeus when the enemy has a lc with 300 duel damage though

No need to turn the music up.
Shazam is just bad. It can only find things that are played on the radio. also good luck getting shazam to catch the music from my isolated headphones while the birds are chirping outside. Also I'm not going to donate to a fucking sell-out. Geez. Have some cute for your effort.

>>144586482

>>144586614
Play without other people and you'd be surprised how everything goes your way

>>144586618
I literally did that though.
What I mean is slark isn't supposed to afk farm.
Which is what I would need to do to get the amount of last hit dee too gee wants me to get in a game where they were pushing our highground 20 minutes in.

>>144586757
So in a game where you knew they were pushing hard and early you built sb?
Care to explain the thought process there?

>>144586757
i was just saying, idk how that game of yours went

you were probably not farming at 100% efficiency but no one is expecting you to and its a game by game basis kinda thing

put on an accent and roleplay as a peruvian/russian.

It worked extremely well for me on EUw, since the place is fucking crawling with turkroaches and easties.

The trick is that you need to have a believable accent though, and they will accept you as one of their own and you can assume control from the inside.
just pick a carry/mid and scream in your accent louder that youre taking that role and dont back down. stay in the lane. lasthit everything.
If youre going to miss a lasthit and the other retard might get it, use a spell to get it.

To beat the cancer you must roleplay the cancer.
It is the only way.

sidenote: Max W then Q then E. Buy wards and put them everywhere.
Step 4. Get a blink or upgrade your D lance
Step 5. Get an Orchid (upgrade later once you have a moonshard, which you can get whenever after sheepsdick.)
Step 6. Get a SheepsDick
Step 7. Follow the tinkers EVERY MOVE.
Step 8. Kill the fucker. (If you cant solo him, call for backup.)

No, they've won like 3 QAULIFIERS to online tournies again coL, who dont need to win online qualifiers because theyre already getting invites to any important tournies

Its hardly impressive when youre playing against a sub-par team who are playing a shitty draft that you can just run around with level 11 and a blink

Navi will beat OG AND you'll be the only one doubting. OG is tier 1.

>>144600757
Yes.
Theyre already playing at a massive advantage that they dont need to care about the games.

To get better watch 7k avg mmr games, because the players are actually aware of their surrondings and have to take that into account when playing.

Watching a booster to get better is like watching Ronaldo playing against the AJAX youth team.
He's so much better than them that its literally nothing special at all that you're watching to learn.

It means you're only see the bad in things.

You're acting like what Dendi did was easy and that the game was a stomp, neither are true.

There were so many good plays that game and it was damn entertaining.

Most people even agree it was the best game of the qualifiers by far.

Yes, you're being a pessimist faggot.

>>144601365
>Much like the Riot boss being a bitch to Icefrog right now.
yo hook me up with that sweet drama

>>144601332
Like I said
It's like watching Ronaldo play against AJAX Youth.

You're gonna see a great show put on by Ronaldo, because he has the skills to just take on all the kids at once, but you're not going to learn anything.

You might see a flashy move or two, but youre not gonna LEARN anything important.

Watching Pros play against Pros in pubs is one of the best ways to learn, even if its something like Sings stream.

Pros and high level players playing against pros and high level players actually have to put effort into winning.

For example, a boost picks, just as an example, huskar for his game.
Enemy picks pudge.
This guy is so much higher mmr than the pudge that he knows every move the pudge is gonna make and try.
He'll just avoid the hooks like its nothing and get off perfect harras without taking any damage himself, it'll be a 1v1 mid and there'll be no rotations for him to worry about onto midlane because lower mmr the mid is always forced to gank because supports are plebs.

Now, if you watch 7k vs 7k the mids will both be constantly pressured or in danger of a roaming support or rotation from enemy heroes, and the 7k pudge would actually pose a threat, because he knows the hero better and knows what angles he can and cant hook from, and how much damage huskar needs to be down before he can attempt a solo kill.
He'll also have the benefit of supports roaming as I said which will make it easier for him to try and kill the huskar.

I dont have enough space to type out an alternate situation, but as previously stated, it's essentially worthless to watch a booster style on people youre mmr.
You need to watch all the heroes/players and how theyre acting/interacting to improve while watching it, not just 1 guy whos far better than the rest of the players just stomping in what is essentially a 1v5

>>144602851

>>144600757
No. MMR has very little to do with being good at the game and everything to do with abusing the ever living fuck out of the meta and mindset of the people at your current MMR.

The only time you start having to worry about being actually good at the game is when you start getting above the 7K mark.

>>144601682

Not much to it though, just him going on about how Pendragon is a man of great integrity who was injustly blamed, and strongly implying Icefrog is an ass.

Also dropping Icefrog's first name (which is a cunt move IMO, considering he's a man who values his privacy)

>>144602975
To follow up, if MMR is any indication of skill, just remember, the clown show that is Manilla majors have had people do some 1k pub tier plays, and they strut around in 7-8k MMR

>>144602851

New hero :

Technologic, Schuan Morteim

Skill 1 : Ricochet

Shoots out a 600 range long laserlight that deals damage and bounces through trees and units.
Damage increases the more curves created.

Bonus damage per curve : 30/40/50/60
Base damage : 120/140/160/180
Edge Damage : Pure
Starting point and other damage : Magic
Max Curve : 7 (0*)
Manacost : 125
Cooldown : 13 (7*)

Skill 2 : Mirror Wall

Creates an invisible wall, attacking the wall once will slip it increasing movement speed of whoever who steps in. The wall can be seen by allies and dust/sentry/gem carriers.
Destroying the wall by Ricochet creates shards that deals damage per second.

Shard Damage : 60
Shard Slow : 35%
Shard Duration : 1/2/3/4/
Wall Duration : 6/7/8/9
Wall movespeed bonus : 10%/15%/20%/25%

The problem was that he got into unstopable territory way too fast, without midas abusing he farms slower than any other carry in the game, if you allow him to get six-slotted then you deserve to lose.

He replaced the biggest Dota forums (of which he was the owner) with a LoL advertisement. Evil is obviously an overstatement, although I'd call him an asshole.

Also, he apparently took a bunch of hero ideas from the suggestions subforum (Teemo, Rammus), although for obvious reasons, that was never proven an interesting tidbit is that when he restored the forums, the hero suggestion subforum was suspiciously missing.

At 5.5k, I know that I'm actually awful at Dota, like when I get 6.5k games, and I feel utterly lost. Unless you're a pro player, who can offer insightful analysis, can you pretentious fucks stop talking. It's like the games you get in RMM where the player over a thousand mmr below you is telling you why you're losing the game, when they are actually fucking clueless. We've all been there. Let's not be those people, and let Secret prepare for their up and coming games.
Stop grasping at straws so you can feel involved and important.
And there's no way that na'vi analysis was written by a 6k+ player either. Keep saying that EE is a greedy player, while if you've ever actually played a pub with him, you know he's one of the most team-centric players in Dota. He has carried me on clinkz before, and he has also fEEded like a fucking retard on clinkz running invis to the same spot within 1.5 minutes and dying the same way after I mass ping a ward spot.
This whole weird sacrificial lamb mentality Reddit has for supports, and is a prevalent message within that na'vi post, is so weird. Like, I would honestly say puppey is the greediest player on Secret, and one of the reasons they are losing.
But I'm not good at this game, so I'm going to shut up and just root for all the teams tomorrow.

at least its not bruno

thank god i hate that faggot

anyone got awesome webms of rampages or failures?

>that feel when for the past 2 big patches i've had right click issues
>no one else getting this issue either
>gonna be stuck with this problem until Dota 2 shuts down


does no one else have this? its not my mouse, i tested my right click on my desktop and a number of other games and had no issues.

this right click not registering bullshit only happens when i play dota 2 and happens a lot more often when i play online than a singleplayer bot match.

and i refuse to make a Reddit account. nothing against reddit, i just don't want to make an account just to find out no one gives a shit since its not happening to them either.

>>144613134
that's what they want you to think

>>144613232
is it since reborn ?
there are a couple of threads on reddit about people having it when reborn launched

>>144613232
>posts vauge complaints on the gulag instead of a detailed description of your problem on the dev forums
????

>>144613584
he already said he doesnt want to make a reddit account

>>144612225
nice bot game

>>144613543
those threads are irrelevent at this point, this only just started since these last few updates.

>>144613584
you want more info?

right clicks register about %30-%50 of the time.

its extremely annoying. it happens when i command to move, Buy an item, anything to do with right click fucks up.

>have to rush and buy an item real quick before i die and lose my gold
>spam right click on the item and on the last click it registers that i want to buy that item
>or im already dead and still smashing right click to buy my fucking item

i hope you see how fucking annoying this is and stop being a huge faggot online.

That's not a detailed description of the problem you dunce.

>turks
>tryharding football

beating the shit out of eachother and being corrupt doesnt really count as tryharding.

theres a reason almost nobody likes turks
its because theyre roaches.
and the only people that like turks are just as bad as them
and the only people that like them are the germans.

I'd much rather have a team of CykaBlyating ruskies and CIS guys than have a single turk or turk loving german on my team.

>literally retarded at this point


Right Clicks.
Do.
Not.
Register. (Register as in, does not compute with the game) Does nothing instead of something

want to troll some more? or are you really this inept?

>>144613945
not the guy trolling you;
go do a click test somewhere

>>144613945
Okay, lets say I work for valve. What do you expect me to do with this information?

>>144613232
turn off your config

>>144614057
what is the point of this webm

>>144614051
got a link? like i said, i already did some testing of my own. its only the right click of my mouse that keeps just blanking out.

>>144614082
ok. sorry for being a dick. just mad as all fuck is all.

essentially. when i press my Right Mouse button, it sometimes counts as it being pressed and sometimes decides its not being pressed. but also, sometimes when the right click does not work, my Hero moves to that spot even if i was clicking a creep or hero to attack.

i honestly don't know if a Replay will help or show my right clicks not working. im going to download my most recent and check player perspective to see. if it shows my right clicks not working i'll post it.

>>144614373
i should add. i've had a 15 click streak go on where not a single click for 15 clicks registered. this caused me a death and some asshat commenting about it lol.

this streak i speak of happens a lot too.
