Man, Maut is truly an unfortunate looking fellow
I really liked game 1 where neither team even drafted a carry. Game 4 was carry vs no-carry so it was kind of a forgone conclusion after a certain point.
Where's kel'snippety you fucking liars
I heard there was a leak of a conversation between Puppey and 1437

>>Valve removed as much shit as possible from the game to make it easier and simpler which in return made the game boring dull and samey.
no one cares about the dmg type changes
>LoL like items that broke the balance and basis of the game
new heroes and items have always been added that seem very strong, and these items have been nerfed alot over time (im assuming you refer to when glimmer cape was introduced, but I also assume that in your selective memory you can't remember when forcestaff was added and was super strong aswell, and subsequently nerfed)
as for 'lol like items', yes you can compare aether lens and dragonlance to lol like items but it makes tons of heroes more usable and changes the game alot with item picks, though I WILL agree that dragonlance needs nerf and that DL + sd is what made drow/tb the powerhouses they are.
and again
'broke the balance of the game'
this has happened so many times in dota over the years and if you only think of those items as breaking balance you have, again, selective memory.
>Retarded jungle pathing that killed any strategy in juking ganking persuing etc
not at all, new jungle is much better than the old ones, do you also think roshan/ancient changes wasn't called for as well?
>memefighting
which is so much worse than ti2 memericing morph/naga right?
>Retarded new wards spots that cover a shiton of terrain for literally 1 ward cost. One of those sposts is as good as 4 wards
theres tones of new ward spots, and the good ward spots are balanced around the fact that they are fucking OBVIOUS and easy to deward, warding game in pro games are still top tier and you if you don't see how games are won on next level warding APART from the obvious good ones then you are simply SHIT at warding
>Camp spots are visible
literally what
yes there are many items/heroes that need nerfs/buffs and its obvious to most, and some changes are also needed, but this is literally ALWAYS the case after big tourneys, especially TI
Um dotards?
When's the patch?
>>151733831

>>151733761
Theyre not the best because it's a very small chance that they are, especially these days when every team is so close instead of having these 2 titans face off at the end.
But it leaves a bad taste in your mouth after TI if the finale wasn't good.
>>151733893
no one thought it was gonna be ld + maut in finals, everyone FEARED they would be casting the final.
>Some stupid fuck calling economy 'League-like' when they have nothing like it

Yeah, because they threw the draft and picked their support pudge gimmick pick.
If you think DC won that first game and Wings weren't just fucking around, you're delusional

>wings won despite DC slapping their shit early on
did we watch the same game? slark was rekt by axe, and am got very good farm untill a few pickoffs, but still picked up a 17 min pt + bf. only issue wings had was low farm on the kotl but once bat axe and am got online it didnt matter and they had everything they needed to win fights and outfarm them.
sure slark had a good period after he got his shadowblade but thats to be expected and most pro teams knows how to NOT panic against a slark thats picking up the pace.
>>151734197
For the prize pool to hit 100 mil Valve would have to rake in 400~ million from TI5 related merchandise, compendiums, etc. Daily reminder Valve took in 60 mil from all this and probably kept a nice cut after paying for all the TI setup.
Don't let your dreams be memes
You to can be on Immortal Magneto gaming and win a TI.
>>151734315
>Funny enough, the best pro "girl" gamer is a tranny

And? Doping is part of the competition. If your nation can't afford to bioengineer the best athletes ever, it can fuck off, because it should be spending money on farm subsidies and industrial development more than sending some imported athletes to brazil.
>>151734301
EG and Alliance losing was way more important. Fucking disgusting how Garfield arranged Alliance (who predictably lost every game in the main event) into the upper bracket.
>implying anyone who loves watching dota wanted EG or DC to win for reasons other than muh geographical region or le mom storyline
>>151733948
>Creates another thread so that people won't bother reading the reply chain
>Only after i called him out on it
Kek
>no one cares about the dmg type changes
But they were important. Take techies mines for example. When they stopped being composite the damage was too high so they ended up lowering the damage to what it was with composite but they ruined hte mines for the lategame because a high armor hero who is the most likely to go in will take barely any damage from it. When they were composite you would still be guranteed to deal almost all the magical damage
>new heroes and items have always been added that seem very strong, and these items have been nerfed alot over time (im assuming you refer to when glimmer cape was introduced, but I also assume that in your selective memory you can't remember when forcestaff was added and was super strong aswell, and subsequently nerfed)
But the new items are fundamentally anti dota its not that they are or not strong. They violate all the principles and guidelines all the previous items had followed
>not at all, new jungle is much better than the old ones, do you also think roshan/ancient changes wasn't called for as well?
Roshan yes, ancient probably yes , dire was at severe disadvantage.on which patches where they twitched? but then again all the rest of the changes were only implemented to faciliatate the memefight garbage
>which is so much worse than ti2 memericing morph/naga right?
yes 100% no doubt
>theres tones of new ward spots, and the good ward spots are balanced around the fact that they are fucking OBVIOUS and easy to deward, warding game in pro games are still top tier and you if you don't see how games are won on next level warding APART from the obvious good ones then you are simply SHIT at warding
Its not always obvious you can't be dropping sentries at all time. Lets say you are pushing and you put one ward in the highground. You get to see absolutely fucking everything with a single wad

>>151733861
Honestly this can never be resolved.
EU doesn't focus on the team as a whole as much, and definetly not on the org, since most of our teams are not from a single country. Also we're not patriotic, so having a team represent a country is not a thing. At most we cheer for players of our countries.
Meanwhile at NA, orgs mean more because you're more capitalistic, teams representing a country means more because you're patriotic, and there's nothing more American than a bunch of people immigrating over, doing shit for you.

Why the fuck did EU become so terrible in TI after TI3? Like how the hell do you perform that badly with so many teams?
>>151734527
if only the offfical organizations, valve, the region they play in, and the place they lived could resolve this...
>>151734554
That's a nice quality of life update, just like the tower hits.
If the game is so casual why do you suck it? Why do you feed big bounties as a fed Razor? Didn't Shiva help against magic damage burst of enemy team or did you ignore buying BKB and going high ground, dragging the game longer and giving enemy more chances?
Fucking cancer
>>151734642
European players have massive ego problems
A shitty mentality leads to a shitty performance
Also while SEA and China have gotten better at Dota, EU has gotten drastically worse
>>151734567
well considering how america is the world leader in developing all sorts of cutting edge science especially when it comes to medicine i'd expect america to have the best doping methods and best ways to avoid being caught
who cares for olympics anyway tho

you are the type of player that would complain if they introduced hotkeys
>WTF YOU DONT HAVE TO USE SKILLS WITH YOUR MOUSE? FUCKING LEAGE OF LEGENDS

>>151734643
It literally doesn't I just explained it.
It doesn't matter to us because org and valve literally don't matter at all to EU, and EU teams are from different countries anyways, so playing in a different region doesn't make them not be EU in our eyes.
>Reddit lost TI
>Reddit lost the arcana vote
>Reddit btfo by the signs and the audience in general
It's a good TI for the gulag
Reminder that EU took the top 2 spots in all 3 majors. Just because they sucked at TI doesn't mean the entire region is somehow in decline.
Shit happens, they'll bounce back.

soo
clever warding beats from one team gives the team advantage against another team that didn't see it coming? man thats so unfair!

Also especially this TI, while Wings and DC get respect for making it to the finals, saying that the objectively best Dota team won, and the order that the team placed in dictates how good they are is dumb.
Almost every team could have taken any match this TI, which was exciting but also kind retarded to watch. OG could have made it to the third place, EG could have dropped out 8th place etc.
Not Secret though, Secret was destined to fail.

Void and Elder Titan were the bans against Wings, since either one, or both, were picked or banned.
Giving wings either one of those heroes is a terrible idea, giving them both is 'gg next' tier.
Ban Faceless Titan, then play better dota than them. That was how you beat Wings.

Guess what
Before you could see the max range of all spells at all time
Now you can't
why? because it took from the player
Valve itself removed it
All the casual friendly shit does is to make sure the newfags never ever learn how to play the game
Valve even made it so when you A click heroes get prioritized instead of the closest unit. That was fucking gay
Will MVP shuffle? Can they even shuffle?
Forev/Febby is too good to give up
If they drop QO they become irrelevant
DuBu makes questionable drafts sometimes (i.e. giving Forev Dark Seer when he plays strong rotaters that can gank easily) but he plays well and I doubt those are his sole decision
MP is the only one who could really be swapped out but who are you replacing him with?

You saying that this order of teams dropping out shows how good they're objectively i
can someone explain to me why DC is not an EU team? they are 4 europeans and a lone burger
the country the organization is based on has never had weight on these things. fnatic is an australian organization and liquid is dutch but you never see people bring these up.

play good in group stages = upper bracket or realistacally you can afford to lose one bo3 and still not be out
play bad in groups stages = tough luck, here, bo1 for you, then if you make that you are living on the edge of dropping out, but you can still make it.
so win ti = play good consistent games, no need to play perfectly, you can afford to lose some games but never two out of three matches, but if you did good in group stages you get awarded one 'revive'.
whats so bad about this

No, it has something to do with teams being very even this year.

shadow went for it because the only reliable way for DC to counter play his Chrono is Winter Curse.
SK would rather stun his teamates instead on going inside, w33 was tilled out of the face of earth to hit an arrow .

>>151735273
its mainly because wings are very good at drafting around chronosphere and making space for their carry to have farm and impact without dmg, with stuff like ET to combo with chrono or invoker.
its a very risky build though, because if you DO die even once or twice as in caught out or have a bad laning stage, you risk getting dmg so late that your chrono isnt insta 'catch 2 good heroes and win fight' anymore.
what you really want to see is how he keeps joining fights and farming safely 100% because of the linkens build rush. always 100% hp, always 100% mana, and pt + linkens is +23 str which is quite alot when you HAVE to burst void down or he escapes.
not to mention its obvious choices against heroes like bat that will still need quite some time farming a force to pop the linkens before he can lasso you unless he has a VERY good game, and it basically allows you fight, farm (even if you are not farming THAT fast), never die and not worry about getting bkb later on to survive fights (against the right matchups that is).
tl;dr it makes you very reliant on having dmg from other teammates in chrono and it needs to keep you safe from 2-3 man ganks where they rely on an initation that can be blocked by linkens, like lasso, BM ult, blink hex from whoever etc.
>>151735892
The normies like him and his style of just throwing himself out there, embarassing himself for peoples entertainment. Also he and Kaci resonate to the newbies.
No one panders to a cliche pessimistic crowd like us and for a reason, no need to.
oh, the collector's cache items aren't tradable

>>151735567
They should really adopt HoN's way of doing cast range indicators, ie actually having them
as well as adding in enemy mana bars
>>151735894
It's not small. Go watch other tournaments. Same top dogs at high places.
This TI just had top doges choking under pressure like lil bitches. And of course LGD got fucked by Visa and Secret by roster, but team like OG and Liquid both FULL TILT
>>151735851
Well that's useless since we can't prove it. We only have Wings stomping EG in TI for records.
>>151735658
EG didnt even try in both games

>Ban Faceless Titan, then play better dota than them. That was how you beat Wings.
that's a pretty tall order though
if they maintain the level of play they showed in those last 3 games of the finals pretty sure there's no team out there that can beat them with the possible exception of EHOME (if they manage to recover from the most tilting loss of all time)

>>151735719
your example is literally 'oh yeah but what if someone smokes and places a good ward, that doesnt reward good play!'
I get the feeling that you are actually insulted by good warding as if there are no counterplays to it.
you're just gonna have to accept that warding is a BIG part of dota and there are many nuances to it, and sometimes you can place a ward in a good spot that gives good information, but at the risk of being taken down very fast, or you can place sneaky wards that give less vision, but are in places the enemy team doesnt expect which makes them play under false sense of secourity which can win you fights/allow you to farm more spread out on the map than you otherwise could have.
>>151736016
Yeah, I'm sure DC and Fnatic got where they are just going through 5 teams choking. Lucky for them!
Also most times, like look at that last EG game. They didn't play bad just because "Well, I guess they justh ad a bad game and choked, haha!", no it's because DC did something that EG couldn't respond to. That is, play in a level they haven't played before. So EG is left standing there like "This isn't DC, how do we react."
>>151736105
In previous TIs the skillgap was bigger, so small things like a single player having a bad day didn't affect the results so much. Also losing one game to cheese wasn't that bad since the better team was so much better, that it could take the 2 other games playing safe.

It's the same with other items when the compendium is released, people are trying to sell their duplicates to buy it/buy levels and the market goes down super hard

Don't take that win away from DC.
It wasn't simple rat like tping a tiny or a furion down a lane, or having furion with aghs. There was no backup, one mistake and EG destroys DC base. DC was just playing on a level they will never play on again. Not mechanically, but they just outsmarted EG. Might have been easier to do that since EG didn't expect DC to step it up, resulting in EG making mistakes.

well thats true of course, if we were to see other paralel universes where you see every single seeding possibility then the results would vary alot, but its still pretty safe to say that if you dont make it in the group stages, and don't make it past the Bo1, then you have spilled all your chances of playing good.
the current format we have is actually surprisingly forgiving compared to many other formats.

Im noy saying that smart warding shouldn't be rewarded
Im saying that valve purposely added some ward spots that can give so much vision it would take 4 or 5 normal wards to get as much. Even if it doesn't last long its enough to spot the entirety of the enemy team.
Before you had to choose a place and get certain information which you used to deduct what can happen
now you just place one up there and you get to see everything, you don't have to think
If you are in position place the ward and spot the other team you might get a 100% free jump and an auto won teamfight that wouldn't have been possible in any other patch

I'm mainly asking because I vaguely remember reading something about how many times you want to hit a creep before you go in for a last hit depending on your hero damage so you can secure the hit even while it's under tower fire and ally creep attacks.
>>151738995
Thanks.
Mid is a far simpler lane to control though, I can mid consistently but regular shit the bed as a safelane carry.
>>151736295
Still can't believe ehome tilted that hard they were imo comfortably the best team prior to eg mind breaking them. Fuck eg

>>151739237
Lane control is fundamental to the entire game, it doesn't matter what lane you're in. You can always control the enemy creeps to give yourself an advantage. This is what you don't get and that's a big part of Fierce's video.

>SINGSING HASN'T STREAMED SINGLE EARLY JULY
>>151737698

>>151739623
Should've been more broad, meant to say "you can always control the creep waves" i.e from either side. It's true supports can interfere with your control by pulling camps on the safe lanes but if you're radiant offlane you can pull too. Also supports can't do too much to prevent someone from drawing creep aggro intentionally.

POINTS
WHEN
>>151739237
i ask about your mmr just cause it kind of tells you a lot about level of creep control
at your mmr if you learn how to control creeps you should be able to dominate your lane
watch that video that anon gave you. there is also a guy called david bowie or something like that, he has vids named what i learned watching XXX...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8KVvZ7mcPc
Watch this vid, he talks a lot about creep equilibrium and how to efficiently farm in safe. You can adjust his play to whatever hero you play in safe
His other vids are also very educational.
>chinks won TI6
>>151740045
teams that win majors lose at TI
>>151740009
sorry bro. See you in a a week
Why would any EG fan be disappointed with their result at TI6
>>151740045
Well
Traditionally a honeypot is codename for a "set-up"
The FBI uses honeypot craigslist ads to catch pedophiles and prostitutes
So this "meme" is that majors are set-ups for teams to expose their drafts and strategies in tournaments that don't matter
It's really dumb when you consider that during the TI3 era everyone knew Alliance's draft and they still lost
>>151740045

EG Vs. DC
The grand final was mostly just DC picking mirana and flopping spectacularly with her. They did win a game with a core, mid skywrath, however.
WIngs' average mmr is 6.3k - won 9 million dollars
OG's is 7.9k - placed last and barely got 100k in winnings

I'd rather watch the shitfest throws of Alliance vs. Navi in the ti3 era than this "clean and safe" dota we have now.
No one plays aggressive anymore, now it's "let me farm my illusion items all nice and safe and then maybe we can push high ground in a few minutes guys :)) )
I'm glad Wings shitstomped JUSTsery and his merry band of fraud's, fuck those faggots for playing "safe dota" with their Naga Siren
So now that memeback and iron talon have won a TI can they please be removed.
I'm tired of losing to four core strategies because I can't out farm due to creeps being worth less and my teammates feeding our lead, tilting and then feeding more.
>Slayers of China, sex slaves of Europe
>>151740587

Lads, have any game actually helped you improve at dota?
Ive been playing dota pretty much since 2004(taking a breaks ofcourse), but ive always was relatively shit-i didnt actually pay attention much to the game and just kept maming the same mistakes without thinking about them or taking a note.I had some mechanical skill but in general i didnt have overall look on the game so when mmr was released i calibrated at ~4.5k but dropped to ~3.5 in the next month.
Then, my pc broke and i stopped playing dota for more than half of a year.In that time, i started playing Smite on my PS4 and this game actually made me gain some overal outlook on the game and made me actuallu think before doing any action.
Recently, i bought new pc and returned to dota and im 4.9k mmr right now
/blog out
So, I was busy since before the TI, why the fuck was Mirana picked so much?
She was pretty rare since pros realized how bad she was after playing her a bit when her Aghs upgrade was first released.

One good rule of thumb for last hitting under towers when your hero has below 70dmg or so:
If the enemy creep is being attacked by your tower and nothing else make sure you hit it once beforehand.
That way the tower's last attack will make it JUST RIGHT for you to lasthit.
This is something which is really easy to remember and execute yet most likely 80% of DotA players don't know about.

Why did our boy Cap get fucked out of casting with Blitz while OY VEY and Mautism got to cast one of the most hype series of the TI?
I wish LD would just retire from casting, he's gotten so much worse it's not even funny
>Oh no THEY MIGHT DIE just kidding they didn't DIE BUT WAIT A SECOND HE USED THAT Ability never mind THEY INIAITE AGAIN nevermind backing
I want LD to lose his voice he's so fucking fake hype

I don't understand why they went with LD + Maut. Neither of them is an analyst, it didn't work at all.
>watching eg vs dc game 3 again to enjoy that feel of EG losing horribly one more time
So deliciously enjoyable, how they tried so very hard and it still wasn't enough.
>>151745004
it wont stop friend
ppd posting is forever
>>151744795
Cap is turning into LD though
hyping everything and anything just because
He went from shit to GOAT to becoming in love with himself and becoming LD
>>151743861
Shame they were plagued by so many problems at TI4. I think one of them got sick from the food or something.
>>151744753
It sucks for B-God but it's not like he will be forgotten by the scene. Never forget, BurNing AM shit all over TI3 Alliance.

where's he gonna go next lads?
>>151745346
Sumail literally said it's an EU team.
>>151736750
He's been picked a lot for his passive, as it just dominates lanes against melee lineups.
It's amazing how DC went from a joke to the TI6 runner up, but it's even more amazing that Wings were on a whole different level and no other team came close. How does that even happen? Can they be stopped?
>>151745341
puppey has proven he can make a top tier team out of all kinds of players. well, for the most part. currently there's some chemistry issues, I'm guessing EE is causing them with his powerful autism.
so yeah it would be a strong team

Here's a vid from a guy who's made a decent amount of videos on laning and item decisions simply by playing entire games.
https://youtu.be/zC1ePnMTRPY
If you're playing an agi core, buy good amounts of regeneration, tango + salve and a stout that builds into pms asap. You can also get yourself a QB. To be an effective carry you need to be able to get last hits early, especially really early because you have low damage. To do this you need to control the wave. You need to tank the wave and control it until your wave comes in. Or you can attack the creeps enough so that you can time your last hits with the tower damage. This is why you need regeneration. So you can tank the wave. The regeneration will pay off especially if you can get 6-8 extra last hits early. After that you get enough damage, assuming boots qb pms ot whatever you need you dont have to worry about the tower as long as you're not retarded you should be able to get most last hits. On a hero like sven you can hold points and then once you get six you should be 1-3-1-1, push your wave towards the tower and go hit jungle stacks. A good carry isn't easy to pull off, however laning is really important because it's hard to be worse than someone especially if you have more items than them.
>>151745557
it's just one isolated event
it's easy to look unbeatable at one single tournament, much harder to show that form consistently
>>151737642
What the fuck? Maybe decrease base armour by 1 or some shit. Just force him to require a laning support
>>151745516

>>151745385
Why?
Apparently artour works well with puppy.
Mind_control looks like a really nice and humble dude who just wants to play good
Same with matumba, they also have experience as teammates.
Zai has proven that he knows how to listen and always does whats the best for the team.
It also fixes the problem of having many egos on your team, like its now with EE, and will contain rtz

they trully are a TI winning material if they have good mid.

Rate this Team Liquid:
Matumbaman, Miracle, Jerax, Notail and Kuroky

He's not.
He's still absolutely broken just ban him every game or enjoy getting bloodthorn'd starting min 25

none of these strawpolls were made last night, the latest one was just posted by me like half an hour ago to get the final tally

This keeps coming up again and again, and I just want to say this.
How is it you think we see you? Why do you think we follow you? Only ever to watch you win?
Are we rats that jump ship the minute it starts to sink? Switch loyalty to the winning players?
I have a smile on my face to watch your amazing plays that most of us could only ever dream of making. Sometimes I smile so much watching DOTA that my face hurts. I get so excited that I shout.
I do not care if cynical people think this is kissing ass, it's about what's true and I have never in my life lost love for my favourite pros because they lose games and tourneys.
If you sat on your ass, if you didn't try, that would let us down.
If you were too smug and thought you didn't have to prepare properly, that would let us down.
But none of you do, you strategise, you work like crazy and you play like gods out of your mind and to me personally you bring nothing but joy.
I just needed to say this because every time I see someone who makes me happy just to watch them play say "I'm sorry I let everyone down" it breaks my fucking heart.

EG would have beaten them if they had drafted for themselves instead of being more concerned about Wings.
The Panda pick was absolute fucking waste. That Panda only split one time to save himself and only managed one kill in lane.
