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."

It took 5 fucking years for the Dota 2's first actual new hero and Valve and Icefrog choose to just be like every other Moba out there and put in the fucking monkey king, when Dota has always been about being unique and doing its own thing, different from all the Mobas out there that just copy each other all the time. They could have BTFO all of them with a new hero that was unique, better, and stronger; a hero that would have put all of their shitty unoriginal monkey kings combined to shame

What's better than a Monkey? A motherfucking Gorilla
What's better than a King? An Emperor

They could have created Gorilla Emperor, and nothing would ever be the same.

That's the challenge, playing like this is extremely tiring.
Everyone game is exhausting and you're not focusing 100% on your own play when taking care of your teams morale.

Back before the secret shop hard camps existed, what did the person in that lane do if the enemy had a death lane?

>>152082385
I think it's because they hate Valve so much that they start to glorify the frog of frost

>>152082385
My only issue with his balancing is that instead of scaling back some ridiculos buff he gave a hero he'll nerf something else.

>I would have been fine with Wukong if his design wasn't as generic as it gets but here it is

All Valve and Icefrog needed to do was spend a few more minutes to think "How do we take the idea of "Monkey King" one step further and outdo everyone else?", but they didn't think we were worth even that much effort.

We have all these unique as fuck heroes and concepts that aren't in or other companies are simply unable to even put in their mobas out there, and then we end up with something like monkey king? It feels like a big fucking joke to have gone on this journey with Icefrog and Valve but see them end up where they are now, choosing to put in a hero that's in every fucking Moba out there already.

It's like some fuckhead coming to you and trying to sell you the idea of a refrigerator in this day and age.

>>152084072
this was debunked

problems with dota 2 balance

instead of nerfing a hero so it is not overpowered but instead simply viable sometimes they overnerf
>remove vision and +15 damage from troll warlord, but also nerf his ultimate for no reason
>make shrapnel useless, but also nerf other things for no reason
>nerf lightning storm, but also gut leshrac's base damage for no reason
>remove laguna range upgrade, but also nerf other spells damage for no reason
>remove techies from the game for no reason


instead of buffing a hero and waiting patiently they keep fucking buffing the hero patch after patch until the hero is inevitably picked by someone and then they realize the hero is overpowered as fuck
>kunkka
>ogre
>shadow demon
>morphling

instead of making simple reverts they go out of their way to change something else
>can't think of any good examples sorry

thanks for the tip lad i was going crazy watching mike feed

I have pretty violent diarrhea. what hero should I pick

Is there any reason why we had to wait for Underlord so much? I didnt play in a while. Months ago I used to read that Icefrog was delaying him cause his ult and such didn't do much of unique at all and that he needed to rework him, but his skills seem unchaged from the old ones?
Also just saying but that aura is fucking crazy, 42% damage reduction at max iirc?

So, /d2g/, I have a question:

How do you normally deal with headaches? I'm pretty prone to them and getting 'em while playing Dota is a pain in the ass.

While I normally deal with them by taking Migral and using refrigerants, I am curious as to what you do, and also, if you use glasses to rest your sight.

uuuh dotards I was wondering about the uh wecommended amount of dedotated wam for uuh server?

What you guys overlook is Valve's attention to the voice over work. Most other games have the most generic and boring characters for the heroes. Dota 2 heroes are so quotable and memorable, you recognize them easily. So the character design is not original, but maybe his personality will be interesting

No they aren't

Thats like the most lacking department next to the lore

If you make an RTS voice thread on v youll get WC3 SC CnC AoE AoM etc.

If you make a Dota 2 thread youll get fucking nothing at all. They are all shit. Every single last one

>>152089520
I'm glad someone is not an overblown pessimistic retard.
The design is fine and cool, best in all of the games, and true to the tales and "lore".
What will really make or break the hero is the skills and voice acting.
But keep speculating and crying tho, it helps keep discussion going so good job on that dotards.

>>152089770
I strongly disagree.
I feel like Dota 2 has a lot of work done in the voice acting department.
Heroes have personality and interactions and very memorable.

6.79 quest is from dota 1 not 2 and all heroes since forever had the same treatment. They didn't even add that feature to dota 2

Nah this is the worst alongside the artstyle. Well everything that valve makes is garbage like everything/. I can't think of a single good thing that there is in the game that wasn't the work of icefrog. ALL the rest is trash

The music the voice acting and dialog take the cake of being the worst

>copied the design from a courier and reused pre existing assets

You do know that the Monkey King is a prestablished character and MKB and the /hero/courier are all based on that character right?

>>152090772
Don't stretch it, faggot. It's not like every fucking unit from old WC3 was a masterpiece of character development. Blizzard are masters of creating cliche story lines on top of good gameplay

>>152090406
The design is an old as fuck one, its why every Monkey King from games/movies looks the fucking same

Icefrog was also in a DotA quest, and Monkey King's quest doesn't show any work or abilities. Its literally a multi-part thing that kinda gives hints at what he does/did do. You raced him, picked out the real illusion, and got the True MKB. He doesn't look to have the nimbus unlike the 6.79 quest, and probably won't have truestrike buff which is something people speculated. Just because he was a quest hero doesn't mean he was done and just sitting on the backend unlike Mortar Team or those other half-finished heroes that got scrapped.

>pre-existing assets
Chinese themed clothes, its not 1:1. The bo staff is, because it looks exactly like the fucking icon for MKB which was the whole point of the staff being a cosmetic in the first place.

Its like 3 years from now when they make a hero called Aghanim and WHOA HE IS USING THAT COSMETIC THAT LOOKS LIKE AGHS SPECTAR WTFLAZY

How about you describe anything without explaining how it looks, smells, sounds, what it does, how it does it, when it was made,what it's made of, what it's shaped like and how many you can fit into your ass?

>Icefrog

IceFrog hasn't had a single goddamn thing to do with this game since at the very latest TI2 when Valve realized the absolutely insane amount of money Dota could pull in. If you think Gabe let's ANYONE touch his literal cash printing machine you're fucking retarded. He doesn't balance the game, he doesn't give input, he doesn't do a thing because they pay him his stupidly huge royalties and he keeps quiet.

There were like 12 lines plus that was important because when you select or move you hear the voice which is a confirmation that your action went trough . Its one of the reasons why in RTSs people spam clicks/group keys like madmen

Dota 2 is a well crafted game, by a developer that actually gives a fuck about it. The competitive scene is thriving and expanding. Also, that stupid infograph that a 12 year old could have done compares a FREE TO PLAY game to full $60 triple A release games. You can't be more retarded

And theres no quest in dota 2

why? because it wasn't necessary it was an easter egg and valve only does the minimum necessary

I am angered that VALVE disabled mods (especially nohats), but because I'm still a noob I rarely see people use cosmetics anyhow.

However, if I had to watch cosmetics all the time, I'd probably stop playing.

Other than cosmetics VALVE did a great job. Nobody is forcing you to buy compendium.

Just because you are not always have the skin tone of nicole kidman does not mean you are not white. It is accepted and scientific and fact that Argentinian is racially and genetically and homogenously more white and as same descent of european not like neighboring country all full of blacks. Argentinian women are most beautiful of all women in the world, everyone is knowing and admitting and acknowledging this, and with number of mexican and blacks now immigranting to america, Argentina is more white than america, with number of muslim immigranting to europe, Argentina is more white than europe.

Is pugna a good support? I played pugna recently and I like playing him but the fucking fragility of playing him is unreal. Holy shit..

He has like 600 HP at level 6.

Is pugna one of those supports like skywrath who are really meh at supporting and probably better at being some sort of core?

>a drink

why do people use "a" when they clearly mean many?

First time I felt the memes famalam
>play pub
>be teamed with two faggots in a party with memetastic names
>the one with the memeiest name (it was literally "It's Too Big Onii Chan") was a fucking spastic sperg
This cunt couldn't stop talking on his mic and would literally scream and ping at every small thing. Muted the faggot five minutes in and kept playing. Worst part was he was not even that good and kept berating our gregor (I knew because he told the autist to calm the fuck down) who wouldn't come to save his ass when he kept advancing in the lane far from the nearest teammate - while being a support. We won but fuck that guy.

>EG: EE, Sumail, Universe, Crit, PPD

HAHAHAHA

Hey autistbro, can you make a short of what you want changed in the game so your autism is satisfied?
Please make it readable, we are but mere mortals in front of your autism.

>piss off

fuck off britbong, singular use is used in both American English and British English.

No one who says "Let's go get a drink/pint" ever mean it literally, so why do they say it?

>>152094726
uh anon, not all int heroes are supports

pugna has a skill that lets him flashfarm and take towers quickly, you want to get a few hp items (mek, aghs) and end the game before your ward/nuke become useless

>>152094726
yes
but the plot twist is he is a shitty core too

>>152094883
>>152094230
What is this team even? It seems so random.

There is zero fucking way EE and PPD co-exist

There. PPD, Crit and Uni should make enough space for the farm vacuum while Sumail kills them all.

The opinions on Valve on dota 2 and CSGO at the moment are so polarizing I can't believe we're talking about the same company. Basically: Valve recently announced that CSGO teams now can't have coaches communicating with the team mid-round (only during warmup, halftime, and 4 30-second timeouts). Seems like the entire community is up in arms about it and, judging by their opinion, Valve is a money-greedy company that's deliberately killing the game. Every single significant gameplay update in the last year has been shat on and most of the changes were reverted shortly thereafter.
Meanwhile in the Dota 2 community, the current patch is widely considered the most balanced of all time (to the point when the next patch isn't as talked about as usual) and Valve is praised for hosting probably the all-around best Dota tournament to date, finally delivering on the Pit Lord reveal and even announcing a new hero outta nowhere.
I mean... damn.
