>>147182379
>mfw people think he's a trash hero
I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering the fountain with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. The embarrassment I feel doing this in front of other female heroes only adds to the allure of the situation. She sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove her boots one at a time. "Is that a boner?" Rylai says. Akasha licks her lips, Rylai giggles, and Shendelzare glares at me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but Tresdin 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 hesitate for a moment and look over to the other girls. They all start giggling at me and whispering. Then I feel Tresdin's foot forced into my mouth with the other one covering my nose. The smell and taste of her sweaty feet causes my raging boner to grow even more. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." Although embarrassed, I take all my clothes off. Suddenly I feel my position swapped with that of Shendelzare. Suddenly I'm lying beneath Akasha and Rylai, who had both taken their boots off, and were pressing their feet against my member. "No," Tresdin said, "He's mine." She runs over and gets on top of me. It's only now that I realize that she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that nobody will be able to interfere with us. 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."

Help me /d2g/
I play Doom fairly often, and even though i always end up doing well (Not just in score. I mean in gpm/xpm, hero damage, tower damage, etc), i have a pretty poor win-rate as him.
Does anyone have any tips? It feels like Doom needs everything at the same time, so no matter what i build, i always end up lacking somewhere and we lose. I know i am messing up somewhere, but i cant really see what.
How exactly do you guys build him? What to with? I am guessing my big issue with him steems from just failing to build him right (And the fact i am terrible at this game, but everyone at my MMR is shit anyway).

I am not a big fan of jungling, i only feel really confortable when i am doing it as Enigma, if i am to be honest, but this doesnt sound bad.
The thing with jungle at my MMR is that people dont know how to play around having a jungler, so i would much rather avoid that...
What about item and skill builds (Both offlane and jungle, if possible)? Do i ignore Infernal Blade until level 9?
>>147190028

You stay in the jungle only as long as you need and constantly harass lanes with cheap items. See

>>147190749
manta, you'll farm faster.

Ah what the hell. That sounds more fun than being stuck in lane regardless.

>>147191000
actually 100% situational, blink/shadowblade if you have one hero you NEED to doom, arcane boots into greaves is good for push, armor, mana, self purge, shivas is good later for armor, but at that point its all lategame decisions.
just focus on your lvl 2-5 rotations, get small items, solve your armor problem through creeps/items asap and try to make rotations at night, smoke if need be.
a lvl 3 doom 2 min into the game running down the enemy team is much stronger than it sounds (with 1-1-1 build)
*knock* *knock*
Can I jungle TB?
He seems like absolute shit in lane and lol pub support
>>147191193
I think thats where i was really fucking as Doom. I focused too much on trying to be a carry, and since i failed to end the games quickly, we lost.
I checked my games with him and most of my wins came from games where i focused on being a tanky support(ish), rather than an actual damage dealer.
Many thanks!

>win the game because the retards didn't buy BKB
Fuck this hero honestly. How is this hero even balanced? Silencer is probably one of the few heroes that will shit throughout the entire enemy if they don't get BKB and retards don't go for BKB. Then it's too late when they get BKB because your physical damage w/ glaives hits them for ~120 dmg a pop and it's pure dmg even so you can just go for a Dragon Lance or SnY and you will literally become a carry.
If Silencer gets any more buff, he's one step from being cancer. All Icefrog literally needs is to give Silencer another INT gain and he's gonna be the INT version of TB.
right how the fuck is everyone dealing with this pos?
if you say kotl I will slap the memes out of you
>>147191000
Phase is really great for chasing down kills early on but I find arcanes into greaves is way better in the long run
Infused raindrops are a really nice pickup early on to help the mana issues
Pos 4 Doom is really versatile and he can farm better than most so just buy whatever will win the game. Sometimes thats a vanguard to act as a tanky frontliner, sometimes its pipe to counter mass magic damage, other times its sb/blink to ensure a doom on a key hero

SWM is great against him for the silence and the magical nuke. easy to keep him out in lane.
silencer is good against him in all stages of the game.
void also great.
this is the mandatory doom suggestion because you asked how to counter a hero so i literally have to mention doom.
>>147191702
I found bane to be insanely good against him
Brain sap in laning gives zero fucks about reactive armor and you can always nightmare and run if he tries to turn things around on you
Later on you can just ult him and dogpile if he tries to be ballsy and he won't even get to suicide

I wonder if that has anything to do with shitty fucking studios that cannot produce a quality cast and thus receive a lot of shit for showing the same ads every ten minutes

>>147193096
>I mean they made like 3 million overnight yesterday lol.
what? how?
just because of the bundle thingy?
anyway yeah they are making a lot of money off of it and with the majors it means valve has more control and there is less room for smaller parties.
it's hard to compete with 3 3 million dollar and 1 20+ million dollar tournament.
but places like ESL seem to do a good job of it.
>>147193271
just be yourself
>>147192497
Players only care about the majors so tournament sponsorship dwindles. Studios get paid by Valve for Major related things so they don't need to aggressively seek sponsorship anymore.
>>147193493
>what? how?

>>147192497
Literally the last few events have had great viewership, an out-performed the cs go events that where on at the time.
Dota 2 actually looks very stable right now when compared to cs go and league. The viewership is stagnant at worse, meanwhile nobody in lol is even pretending that LCS viewership has tanked, and cs go's tv league is a borderline flop.
CS GO also just had a 765k lan that got like 180k viewers for it's final, and a dreamhack event that had like less than 200k, which is probably the lowest for a cs dreamhack event in years.

epicentre and esl one manila had similar average viewership to the major.
Almost all the dota events post shanghai have had above average viewership. If sponsors aren't interested in dota what are they interested in?
There is nothing to sponsor in league, it's all riot controlled. And E-league is currently sucking the life out of the cs go scene, draining third party lans of their viewers and making it beyond difficult for them to get more than 2-3 top teams at their events.

Smash the early game only to see the cores throw the unthrowable so many times
Lately I won a few games that seemed unwinnable because I flipped out and did something different instead of just trying to support gud as the game gradually falls apart for us
I feel like this is the sort of shit I have to do to escape, just playing your role slightly above average means you deserve that 51% winrate and glacial climb
this is a retarded question, but when i jungle axe and im going for the creep stack i usually try to stack at 54 seconds but sometimes when im stacking the creep runs back too early and that stops the next set of creeps from spawning. How do i prevent that so I never fail my stack?
Also, as a side note how do you stop lifestealer late game, and heroes who jungle?

How do you keep yourself from tilting when you picked support just so the other retards don't throw a bitch fit and make it a lost game from the start but your cores are doing super poorly (like 1-2 items at minute 30) and you can't do anything to salvage that shitshow of a game?
Honest question. I'm a pretty calm player but I get really angry when I see an AM with uncontested farm in lane with battle fury, brown boots and vanguard at minute 30.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
WHY IS THE GAME COORDINATOR DOWN I JUST WANT TO QUEUE I LOST A MATCH NOW I NEED TO WIN TO MAKE UP FOR IT FUCK I NEED IT
>>147201353
Try to give them advice. If they don't listen, just accept the loss and move on. There's always the next match.
>>147201353
Make space, ward, deward, push lanes, stack, make calls and guess the enemy calls.
Of course it's hard if the enemy has a hero that can be everywhere, like Storm or Prophet, but you gotta do what u gotta do.
Also, buy utility items like Force and Glimmer. They are top tier items tied to a low ammount of stats so carry don't get em.
>>147201353
Pick a support that can take objectives singlehandedly like SS, Visage, BM,Pugnaand take the fate of the game into your own hands
Recognize when you need to die with your team and when you need to trade objectives which is what your dogshit carries are supposed to be doing. Don't be afraid to skimp on wards if they're not stopping your team from getting ganked and you getting items can win you the game
Alternatively pick a support that can interfere with the enemy carry's attempts to farm. Nyx+1 can kill just about anyone.
Warning: All this requires that you're legitimately better at dota 2 than the other players
>>147201614
Tbh that wasn't EE's fault.
There's a big where if you quickcast abilities (particularly AoE abilities that also have unit targeting) then it will quickcast sometimes not on the unit that the player had selected.

did you previously bought all the collector caches too?
Ok, blog time.
I qued for a seasonal ranked game as the game coordinator went down. After everything started working again, I got instantly matched and got into the game where the matchmaking broke pretty bad. The average mmr for the match was under 2.5k and I was the highest as 4.7k. Our opponents highest was tbd.
What a fucking shitshow. It really opens your eyes when you complain about 4k average games and then play a game with 2k players. It was completely irrelevant what the other 9 people did during the game. They really played in their own world. I just farmed at a normal pace while observing what was happening over the map.
Somehow their highest rated player (the tbd) managed to lose mid to a random 2k shitter and people were buying more shadowblades than I could imagine. I tried to convince my teammates to carry dust for easy kills, but not a big surprise they didn't buy. No one listened at all, no matter what chat I tried to use. First wards were bought at minute 7 and the courier was upgraded by me at some point. People were complaining about not saying misses and didn't know how to skill their heroes or what items to buy.
I farmed a little and started taking over the game. I threw curve-balls at the opponents by buying dust and this seemed to take them outside their comfort zone after invisibility was proven to be counter-able. We won shortly after.
The point of this is that I hadn't realized how drastic the skill difference was. I always knew there was some difference between mmr's, but the difference is so huge. The difference between 4k and 5k average games is pretty big, but people in 2k are playing in their own little world. You will climb in mmr for sure if you are any good, your teammates don't matter at all in most of the games until high 3k or low 4k or so.
If you are good, carry the games as whatever role until teamwork and skill start mattering.

Try to play mid or carry in pubs and it's a lost game from the start.
In 8 out of 10 games, two or more people will select mid lane and none of them will back off.
Can't carry those "in their own little world games" as a position 5.
>>147202465
I actually like the 5k games much more as people rarely go full retard on lane or picking phase, and usually try to work as a team.
The 4k games usually are a mini-game of personalities, picks and new ways on how to fail on lane.
>>147183868

>>147202448

>>147202716
No really, the players are so fucking bad that if you are any good, you can carry the game from any role. Of course you can't win every single game, but even a good support player will guide the 4 other retards to victory if played properly.
And if you are so sure that pos 5 can't carry the game, just pick random farmer hero and farm at a normal pace. The people at 2k-4k can't farm and buy bad items so if you have a brain, you can win the farming game easily.

>>147203343
That's not true
I find last hitting and constantly farm not only boring, but exhausting
The enemy team KNOWS when you don't know what you're doing. They can smell it. And they will focus you down in a whim
Playing offlane or support is much more relaxing, and the hard part which is knowing when to cast and where to cast from and all that shit ends up coming naturally at this point.
Depends on the person.
>>147203190
The difficulty of roles don't exist in a vacuum, every game is different difficulty depending on the match-ups, enemy team composition and skill level. Usually the hardest role is the role you've played the least and if you are against people who know what they are doing.

>>147203107
Maybe I misworded this a bit.
I mean carry as in "salvage" a game. As a carry you can try to farm up and use every little space as best as possible and eventually get big and win that big fight that swings the game.
If you're playing pos.5 and your pos.1/2 do fuck all, then what can you do other than warding and trying to clutch a teamfight or outplaying the enemy?
I feel with some games that my hands are tied and no matter how hard I've tried it was in vain.
To be fair though I've not been playing ranked for long and not really consistent so maybe that is why to me each loss is still a big deal.
I also kinda regret playing my calibration matches early (I think I played them when I had about 600 hrs played, I am now at 1.4k).
>>147204137

>>147204379
>tfw you play your ass off delaying the game for so long until your retard carries accidentally brute force their way through a teamfight and manage to throne the enemy even though some of the cretins wandered off to jungle

They didn't deserve to winBut I didn't deserve to lose
>>147204137
>>147204449
But it's not
>>147204921
just checked the market
fuck me
why are zeus immortal allowed to even get 3-4 dollars
>>147204379
Playing pos 5/4 in a game filled with bad players is a little different kind of carrying. You can for example dominate your easy lane so well, that even the mega retard carry gets farm and their offlane goes on a feeding spree (or their dual offlane). You can keep on ganking mid or other lanes so that your opponents can't get any farm and go on a tilt as what usually happens in low rating games. Keeping wards up and carrying detection leads to safe map for your team and easy kills on cocky invis heroes which are really popular at low skill level.
Its also good to communicate with your team. At low skill levels people are bad listeners and don't take advice easily, but when you are telling them if they are getting ganked or what item might be good in this situation cause reason X they might listen. Even if not all advice is followed, the times when communication saves the day will give more rating in the long run than staying quiet.
And the calibration games don't matter in the long run. If you calibrate to a high rating you will drop down to your "real" skill level if you play enough games. The same is true the other way as well. A good mindset is to only play ranked and try to get better, it will make you a better player much faster than playing unranked and having "que anxiety" for ranked. If you want to win, you will get better and it will affect your performance in a positive way.
>>147205008
Because unlike Clock, Zeus isa good hero
>>147204789
I know that feel too.
Had a furion cliff jungling and a SF and Tide rush Aghamemes and Jug didn't have a single item at minute 20. Somehow the jug eventually got his items and their aghamemes actually won a teamfight.
But still, you cannot count on that to happen every time...
>>147205140
what about aa immortal
i wish i could predict market prices
>>147205085
>that even the mega retard carry gets farm
You can lead a potato to freefarm but you can't make him lasthit
Or not build a naked radiance by 35m
Or ever buy a motherfucking bkb
A player who can be reasoned with and takes advantage of freefarm and can actually make shit happen with their farm is in no way a "bad player"
>>147205085
Thanks dude.
That was some nice determination-inducing speech right there. I'm going to bed now but I'll try to apply this to my next games, starting tomorrow. Good luck for your games, too!

...for me to poop on!
>>147205406
You need to keep in mind that the chances are the opponent team's carry might be the same kind of player, but in this case his support player is not doing his job as well as you are. You can't win every single game, but doing a good job on your role maximizes your chances of winning
>>147205534

>>147205427

>>147205561
This is another thing actually.
I hate how people play offlane in my bracket, I get the feeling when people pick that lane they enter it with the mindset that dying needlessly is perfectly fine, every death was inevitable.
Or they get super fucking mad and blame the team for not helping or mid not ganking.
It really shows when people only play that lane because "hurr me no play support cyka"
>>147205719
>If you play well you'll win more often than if you dont play well
Thanks Purge

Let me rephrase that, if you give your absolute all in trying to win the game, you'll win more than just playing halfheartedly like most people do.
>>147206195
>Had a Drow mid today
>She built Treads Shadowblade against Pudge mid
>She died to Pudge four times in the first 8 minutes
>>147206019
I think some people see the enemy carry freefarming because the lane is too strong for them to contest and panic that nobody is rotating to gank
At least I used to do that
Also sometimes the enemy lane is just way more coordinated than usual and manage to nail you twice even though you usually dominate
Good offlaners will cut their losses and play conservatively or go jungle at that point

It looks like you tried.
Personally I'm not a fan of going for both the Echo Saber+Vlad and the Radiance+Vanguard. They're items that give you a little more survivability and a little more damage but they aren't necessarily good unless your teammates are good. You're in 2k/3k MMR so your teammates are NEVER good unless somebody is boosting their account.
Try picking offlaners that don't necessarily need the backup of their team to get killed. I'd say Bristleback, Timbersaw, maybe Doom or Broodmother.
someone who is good, please give me advice
when I play void offlane I usually buy 8 tangos, stout shield, and observer ward, and then a tp scroll and an iron branch
is this bad?

This actually happened to me too. I got ranked back in like 2013 at like exactly 3k. At about the same time I discovered Random Draft and I played so much RD that I played VHS. I'd go back and try to play ranked and it would be such an uphill battle that I didn't want to take the time to get to 4k, which is hte beginning of VHS. It demoralized me to the point where I actually quit playing, it didn't help that it was at about the same time the memeback patch happened and it became significantly harder to solo win games. The IR recal has been very nice to me, it's just a shame that I quit playing the game so heavily because my skill slipped hard. I calibrated for IR at about 3.6k, but I don't really play that much anymore. I probably just get my 4k and stop playing ranked.

cm, lich, lion or other supports that don't need mana. also tranq + soul ring gives you personally twice as much mana as arcanes and the huge hp regen as a bonus.
also axe, slardar, centaur etc. heroes who are used to initiate and reinitiate at short intervals. the hp regen is god tier for the price
>>147207796
yes.

>cm, lich, lion or other supports that don't need mana
Arcanes are actually good on these supports depending on the match
They all have F R E E mana sustain but very expensive skills.
Lich in particular doesn't really want to eat a lane creep while pushing after a teamfight
>>147207960
ok so tell me if im just being retarded and theory shitting here here or if im onto something. as a support you always want to be supporting your team right, so wouldnt you want to always have mana boots so your team can always be full on mana or at least have the mana to cast one extra spell? i mean tranq are cool for keeping your self alive ya but wouldnt the mana be better for the team? even if you dont have mana problems as like a lion for instances wouldnt your carry/mid/offlaner be able to preform better with the extra mana?
>>147208125
sometimes you want to take a break and be mana leaking cancer
>>147207686

arcane can also be disassembled into lens which is just a great item on pretty much most supports, or turned into greaves
I used to buy tranqs all the time but I usually find myself going arcanes or just brown boots
do I have to buy a goypendium just to have decent ranked games? I swear the last 3 I had were the worst I've had in all my time playing.

well yes it's never a bad item obviously and especially if nobody else in your team gets them it can be a difference maker in pushes etc. even if you personally were able to sustain your mana
>>147208232
yes but tranq's can be the difference between you being there at your carry's side supporting him with your abilities or being back at base regenning because your STR gain is garbage so if you eat any damage you're out of the fight for a long time
>>147208758

>>147208807

the entire point of PMS is for laning. It's especially bad if your a offlane jungling void because your wasting that much needed money on something that won't actually help you and will just be sold before 20mins
>>147207686
I usually only buy 8 tangos if I think I wont get harassed to much but I'll be tanking creeps a lot

>>147208853
True, I've just seen too many players scoff at F R E E mana supports getting arcanes
Tranqs are definitely good value but the break mechanic drives me crazy and i find a casual ring of regen is usually enough and can be built into force staff (practically core for me regardless of the support, it's just too useful) or headress
Typically find myself getting tranqs only in games where my lane is getting fucked

Which hero has ruined the most games on your team?
For me it's been the classic AFK jungle Nature's Prophet midas strat. For some reason, I get it almost every other game on my team.
>>147208232
Depends on your lineup too
If you have a core that goes Arcanes for a while, like Zeus, Lina or Timbersaw, you can afford to not go arcanes.
If ur hero is not too mana dependant, like Lion or KotL, you can go for tranqs more reliably too
I still sometimes find myself going Arcanes on Lion sometimes if my team is too mana starved, and the buildup to Aether Lens is good too.
If u have a turtle of a hero like Shaman or Maiden, Tranqs+Wind Lance is fucking amazing
Depends on game overall.

furthermore, they never seem to tell anyone that they want to play riki and wait until the last moment and the last pick to lock him in
>>147209232
Pick bounty/riki and fuck her jungle over (not great if she decides to lane obviously)
Get a ghost scepter and hit it the moment you hear a vuvuzela
If your teammates are the ones getting dueled, euls that bitch or nuke her down
The rest is just warding well and keeping track of her
Linkens is always good against duel, no LC wants to build a force staff or some shit
She's not really that dangerous until she has blademail, or 5+ duels
Unfortunately a good LC is hard to counter because they will identify your worst overextending unaware retard teammate and duel the shit out of them, or instawin duels with the cooperation of bursty teammates
However even a decently fed LC scales like shit lategame

This works for me the vast majority of the time. The only thing you have to keep in mind is that Lycan will drop off after a certain point even if you're doing very well, so it's important you end the game asap. I've found that my Lycan games are either solo won at 30 minutes or below or lost if it goes on much longer past that (in trench tier where games typically always last an hour).

Hey guys I'm still learning dota, is it normal to feel like I want to win without learning more or practicing harder? Like for example invoker is really strong now so if I wanted to genuinely improve I should probably learn a lot of invoker even if I mess up many times. However it's a lot easier and less painful if I were to pick something like Wraith King or DK or Weaver and if I get ahead early just snowball the game.

BEST INSULT EVER
>>147178858
Because it makes the game feel weird, especially considering how similar the two games control. I certainly felt it when I made the jump from LoL to Dota.
However, turn rates are not bad as much as they're different. Anyone can get used to them, it's only a matter of getting rid of the old muscle memory and habits.
Rate my hero pool.

Taht's the best shit, sometimes you do get run down and that is really fucking awful, but every time you can bait out the greedy retard ganks and turn it into a serious team wipe is real satisfying. I just had a game like that, the enemy team had riki and BH and thye were camping mid hard, but their mid was some dumb shit OD who wanted to set up all the "ganks" with astral, but he didn't level it so he would have had to been touching me basically to fuck with me, but at the same time the BH was some turbo dipshit that kept coming into vision visible and eventually they just ended up diving me like 3 times, and all 3 would die everytime. I guess they "succeeded" since they mananged to get me the third time because my teamate's tp's were still on CD.
>>147189186
i made an account spamming sd carry and i reached 5k in calibration game
I'm telling you, it's not that legit. The delay on disruption fuck him up just as well as the illusions not doing the same animation that sd does whenever he cast spells.
Its decent at 1k-4k7
>>147229518
it's funny how the spirit breakers at some point just tilt and stop canceling their charges no matter what
>not playing the best hero in the game
?
>>147229650
That's why I won't pick Bara actively, I'm such a tilting faggot that he's just actively a loss for me. I used to fuck with Axe real heavily and he's a lot more forgiving in YOLO braindead dives, but Bara jsut doesn't work like that. Figure after 2.5k hours on Dota I'd figure out to not charge the little faggot that keeps killing me, but i'll get him this time.

>>147229953
Midas is still core. Blink is extremely good since you can essentially set up ganks and teamfight with 0 risk to your main hero. Maelstrom/desolator depending on the enemy draft. BKB can get you solo kills later on very easily, and bloodthorn is good for the same reason. I really dislike the necrobook/manta build people go. I'm 4.3k if that makes my opinion any less relevant.
>>147229817
>>147229870
I don't respect the fallen. The subhuman shits deserve to die crushngly without any hope of reprise or success.
>>147229949
It's ok against ench, clinkz and so on. Mostly useful for defending/pushing towers. But yeah he's still op, just nowhere near as op as before. Maybe 6.85-6.86 ES levels. I laugh hard at all the people thinking he needs buffs to be put into CM.
>>147230253
Bottle is generally worse than salve/mango due to having to repeatedly apply it.
Having at least one form of disable item is often really useful. Otherwise that's a pretty good build, just swap AC for butter/bkb/mkb as req.
>It's a 'our spectre thinks she is a melee creep and somehow dies in every teamfight no matter what from minute 10 onward' episode
>>147230467
Personally I run with a bottle and a mango in the early game for regeneration. A potential 6 bottle charges is nothing to sneeze at, and I find myself safe enough to get by with just tangos. My go-to disabling item is scythe of vyse, much later in the game since I usually don't have problems with keeping people locked down in the midgame. I usually go AC just to safeguard my lowish health and to get my attack speed boost I need, but I will replace it with butterfly and see how it goes.
>>147230682
I like scythe a lot, but I find against a lot of teams that don't need as much lockdown an early orchid helps me snowball more. That extra 30% on top of his already high damage is not to be sniffed at. Lets the clone kill alone much earlier.

CC&C is definitely garbage, but there's been plenty of games where beesa hasn't played well.
>>147231183
my god lul
>>147228785
Beesa is way out of FDL's league. He deserves to play with the best on the scene. FDL's play is inconsistent and unstable and their mid still has a long long way to go before he can face other top mids with competence.
