>flat mana (intelligence)
Worst meme.
With the recent mana-per-INT nerf, Energy booster is more efficient than ever.
Staff of Wizardry is 120 mana for 1000 gold, Energy Booster is 250 mana for 900 gold, more than twice gold-efficient.
You build INT items for items that build out of them, when mana pool is a primary concern, Energy Booster is a way to go.

Hey /d2g/, I am concerned about the current state of techies. In my opinion, he is the most cancerous right now, and it's because of his suicide and attack range.

His attack range is 720, and his armor is 7. This means he can trade hits super effectively, and he can tank creeps quite a bit

His mines also discourage any aggression on him. He can simply put down on mine in the flank, and enemies will be discouraged to walk there again, fearing death.

If they do buy sentries, then they only kill one mine.

His suicide was consistently buffed, dealing insane damage and giving him half a respawn timer, as well as giving him gold and xp for any kills he gets. It also denies the enemy any gold or xp, and will most likely kill him.

So you have this tanky, unattackable support who just harasses the shit out of the carry, bankrupts the support, and kills anyone next to him.

meanwhile, his mines keep getting nerfed over and fucking over again, for whatever dumbass reason

The things that take skill, like putting down a mine and predicting where an enemy is going to walk 5 minutes from now, takes skill. Suiciding and killing two heroes while halving the respawn timer is not.

Reminder that statman without actual game knowledge of at least 4.5k would be like

>>148867772
Techies is trash and has always been trash.

>B-But muh TI

The only reason he was banned was because the Chinks didn't think EG would be madman to pick him, and therefor had no real strategy to counter him. Simple vision control makes Techies life a living hell.

>>148867772
>This means he can trade hits super effectively

Techies deals like 30 damage at level 1.

Buy a stout shield and he will deal next to no damage if you have any armor

guys what if techies was a melee with 3.0 bat but had like 150 base attack

I fucking hate this IO meme but if it means no Slark or Pudge arcana then so be it, because seriously, fuck Slark and Pudge.

>>148870756
Because it is well known fact that Valve cannot make a 3rd game in a series so they figured out a work around by making a game start at 2 they will be able to make the second game 3 and in doing so they will break the curse and finally be able to release Half life 3

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. Now 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."

first time I've lost in 10 games.
I guess this is what I get for picking a hero that can't hit buildings.
not sure why I'm in the same rank as these people who are obviously worse than me though. every game looks like this score card wise. I know I'm not good but I'm not bloodstone bane retarded.
my mmr is steadily increasing but it's painfully slow.

>>148872739

Literally the difference of 8 matches. My first 100 games were so horrid its not even believable. Coming from a background of never playing a moba to niggering on Dota 2 it took me awhile to adjust. Even then at the end of the game you can only do so much personally. There is 4 other niggers you have to count on not to over extend, get ganked, Build so memey, counter-pick, or actually play the game. I'm not perfect but fuck if I don't get the shitters more than the 50/50 chance of it.

Thematically different, because both Vinland Saga and Berserk are based off of already written stories by historical viking bards and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe respectively. Whereas Tokyo Ghoul borrows from a multitude of Kefka's works.

And they are all action seinen, where action is frequent or part of the main course and due to the graphic nature of their content they are categorized strictly as seinen.

Come back later secondary :^)

Valve are probably getting pretty pissed at reddit memeing Io to win the arcana vote, they know it wouldn't sell for shit compared to other winners. They'd just lose money straight up.

Well fucking done leddit.

Valve let us chose ONE fucking thing, which is a hero we want a cool item for, and yet you fucktards waste your votes on a hero that no one plays it and it's not even a model.

Because of you, valve will drop the vote on the next year, because sales speaks louder than memes.

I'm not even mad at this point, in fact i don't know what to feel. It's like people want to be idiots.

Lose match with Techies? You get reported by enemy team and by your team.

Anyone who's played Dota for more than 1 year knows how to identify unwinnable games. I'm obviously not talking about games where you are 20 kills behind but have lategame heroes that could let you catch up.

One exception are Tinker or Techies games. Even if you could win them after 60 minutes of stalling highground I'd rather lose quick than suffer through that.

Okay, tell me, who will get the diffusal on this team consisting of Witch Doctor, Sven, Venge (Because le pros pikk it xdd), Clinkz and Spirit Breaker. That's right, fucking no one.

Fuck Omni so fucking hard. I hate that hero to death. Might have to do with me being a filthy Sven-maining sven-picker, but something about being able to purchase aghs, sit inside fountain and win teamfights because the enemy team didn't get a mega situational item just makes Omni fucking disgusting to me. I hate him, I hate all his spells and I especially hate Guardian Angel. Fuck him.

We crushed him in lane, but PA+Lich owned our offlane as well. I agree Clinkz should have gotten diffu, but he didn't I can't control my allies. I tried to tell him early to get diffu but he did the classic "get muh orchid and try 2 gank but then get fogged during the gank and fail the gank".

Okay, SB could have gotten it, but how's he meant to farm it. Omni is there to save anyone who gets charged.

On certain heroes, such as Riki, I don't give a fuck about Omni. I just target him every fight, and laugh as he spams all his spells only to have them purged immediately after. And sure, Oracle actually destroys omniknight, but no one knows how to play him until way higher mmr than I am.

No, no, I'm not saying that I "deserve higher MMR". If I did that, I'd have gotten there. All I'm saying is Omni is absolutely fucking apeshit overpowered IF no one gets diffusal, and to get diffusal, you either have to butcher your item build, or pick a natural diffusal carrier.

And because he's never picked in pro games (because he would literally be outdrafted and some hero would get diffu and gank him and shit), he just keeps getting buffed. Fuck him.

Of course his fucking winrate would be negative 50 if it was Patrick Sway'zes Ghost playing it in 5k mmr and above

No thanks, I'd rather wait till my manapool is bigger and my illusions stronger.

>only people that are able to play a hero properly play the hero
>somehow this makes his winrate a worse judge of his strength than if everyshitter tried to play him

the data unequivocally shows that if you play arc warden in vhs (likely as an arc warden spammer) you're statistically likely to win games

this means he is a "good" hero

any concept of muh pro meta is completely irrelevant since he's not in cm

Overall I'd say it has shrunk drastically. Generals used to be a lot faster.

TI seems to get crazier for each year though.

whats a good hero to pick when there is a tinker on my team?

Hello, I am a general manager of a team that may or may not be currently sponsoring a dota 2 team. I have decided to post here today because of your understanding of someones need to remain anonymous when leaking critical, yet vital, information into the public domain. This is a benefit that I do not believe is present in other sites. I understand that this particular board has had dota leaks in the past, specifically around the time of patch notes and so i felt this was a safe environment for me to release this information.


In the coming weeks you may hear rumours about a particular scandal within the dota 2 scene, specifically surrounding a singular player that many you may know, 'EternaLEnVy'.


On the 12th of July, an event occurred within the team secret player house which lead to the arrest and later formal court hearing of one Jacky "EternaLEnVy" Mao.

(I am not sure about the rules regarding NSFW content on this specific board, so I will just spoiler the charges which you may find offensive to read.)

As unfortunate as it may sound to may of you, whom are probably fans of 'EternaLEnVy' and wish to watch him play and succeed in the coming 'The International 6', but the turkish courts have found Jacky Mao guilty on the charges of having shit tier taste in anime . His sentencing will take place on the 9th of August.

I would like to say it ends here, but further dota players are also being investigated for similar charge. Along with 'EternaLEnVy', Artour "Arteezy" Babaev is currently having charges pressed against him for conspiracy to be a disguting weeb.

Again, I appreciate your understanding for my need to remain anonymous, and wish you respect this need.
