I started playing mid only and feel like a fucking booster or somehitng
after having a 60% win rate over the past month i've finally dragged myself to almost a 50% winrate
i know you all probably don't care because i can't even play ranked yet, but it feels nice to improve :)

dazzle is fucking good for low-tier 4k where im sitting now, you just grave your suicidal monkey allies and suddenly enemy team has no gold and you have teamwipes
of course, you still need your cores to be competent human beings, but i hate the pressure of midlane and the tedium of carry so playing these heroes is jokes
feels good putting all these chimps in higher level matchmaking, im a one-man MMR stock market inflation machine

Also how do you play/build legion commander? Spectated a game and she looks fun.
>>154714458
Probably working on their internal build and doing some MM wackery and it somehow ended up in the release build.
I think shit like that happened before.
>>154714327
never said it wasn't, this is not PSG talking
think main problem is I go turbo tilt when I'm already going down the lane and someone picks PA after game starts or I have to solo because my team would rather dual offlane than pick a zapport
I'm at 60%+ winrate discounting abandons and early games where I just fed 0/30 out of anger but that was 80 matches ago someonetell me everything's gonna be fine

jesus fucking christ
>>154715421
let me explain something to you
I'm PSG and I have gotten two accounts into very high skill after one game. I got another account into VHS in 4 games and yet another into VHS in 14 games.
You have a forty game period to be able to do this and you were unable to do it.
Why do you think you belong at a higher mmr?
Did you think you had to carry to win those early games against 2k newbs? Why didn't you just pick enigma, build a necrobook, and end the game in thirty minutes while winning every teamfight?

>>154715421
Don't let him get to you, there's always this one faggot in /d2g/ that circlejerks about how everyone but him is bad but somehow can't change it (inverse PSG).
Staying with a positive mental attitude is vital because if you're a dick, everyone else will be too, and your good boy MMR will eventually reflect it. I had a fair number of accidental abandons from now-fixed technical issues and these people are a living hell to play with.

there might be, actually.
install the old hero model mods as you usually would, and then do nothing. let them not work.
then queue for a game.
when you get in-game, close dota, and add -vpk_override, or whatever the command is, to your launch options, then reopen dota and reconnect to your game.
this worked when they made it so that -vpk_override prevents you from matchmaking, but i'm not sure whether or not it works these days.
good luck friendbot, i always used old pudge until they fucked -vpk_override

>>154715676
I never said I belong at higher mmr, I said I'm trying to actually learn the game but I keep getting matched with lvl 1 accounts and it's draining my will, I'm really considering dropping it by now
that's a good point about not needing to super carry against low skill but I used to not even play carry because I couldn't get a last hit to save my life and now I can get 80+ cs in the first 10 min
I'm not dicking about shadow pool and how I'm better than that, I just wish I'd get decent games considering I win much more than I lose and *I carry* these games more often than not
>>154715840
thanks anon. I guess I'll just stress less about the matches at least until I get to play ranked just so I don't quit the game for good as I actually love this thing

*just hits you for 400 fucking pure damage and heals himself anyway, making anything and everything you do fucking irrelevant*
I got him in low priority the other day and decided to play like half the game with one hand (i wasnt jerking it) and fucking demoralized the enemy team so hard with GA that they gave up and sat in base
>>154716554
it's mostly because its extremely easy to outdraft pubs with omni
the carry has to pick an agi carry and then you're open to pick whatever else you want
fuck omniknight
>>154716290
i'm very sure that all that happened was they removed the ability to queue while -override_vpk is in your launch options. enabling it after you've already joined a game was an old trick from the time.
>>154716436
Omniknight isn't that hard to counter, but he works great in pubs because pub scrubs always blow their loads ASAP and can't afford to retreat and reengage.
Plus, GA is only for physical damage and his Repel actually takes skill to make the most out of. So if you have good magical damage you can fuck his allies ez, and magic damage is how ez mode heroes usually deal damage.
>>154716704
if you're getting matched with level 1 accounts after 100 games it means the system detected that you *really are* a new player. You weren't good enough to be smurf detected. That's pretty bad.
watch pro streams, watch pro games. you don't understand things at a basic level and are bad. I'm being honest.
stack with people higher MMR than you and do fucking as they tell you. That is how i got better.

congratulations, you just put the best skill in the game on an 11 second cooldown as a regular ability. It costs 50 mana, right?

NA dota players should "seriously" just fucking neck themselves. That is all.
I've been thinking
what if there was a hero with 100HP but he had 99% physical and magical damage reduction
meaning that everything hurts him for 1HP
>>154716902
people try hard as fuck to win low priority these days lol you have no idea honestly
it's worse than it's ever been, they changed some stuff with behavior/reports/commends recently
and now as of today's patch, you can once again get reported back in for five games while you're already in low prio, locking you in forever if you don't try
>>154716704
>I keep getting matched with lvl 1 accounts and it's draining my will
This is just a fact of life in unranked. People never play bots because in most other games, bot practice is useless, including Valve games.

Watching pro streams is stupid because pros do things far faster and often in a risker way than nubs will be able to get. They should look for slower paced tutorials.

You should see some of the retarded shit that gets pulled in regular streams, too. Did you see Artour's last night?
So let's talk about Monkey King. Some guy did this same post on playdota or something but big daddy PSG gonna do it for you here, because I'm smarter than that guy anyway. However I'm also stealing most of his points.
Several of the Dota 1 monkey king's abilities were reworked into PL. Based on the trailer and other hints, we clearly have some new stuff going on.
Hint 1: Emoticharm
Given out to some TI6 attendees, the emoticharm shows MK transforming from a tree into himself. This is probably a bastardization of the lore in which MK can transform his staff into different things-- they gave him a shapeshifting ability too. I agree with the other guy's analysis that this is a sub-ability. Jumping through trees is heavily focused in the trailer. So we know Monkey King's Q
>Monkey Movement
>Monkey King can jump x distance into trees. He can jump more than once/longer distance at higher levels (probably more than once). When he reaches the jump/distance limit he shapeshifts into the last tree he lands on, removing the tree. If the tree is quelling bladed, tangoed, etc he is revealed.
Continued next post.
Well as long as we're posting stupid ideas
>Black Engine
>Dire ranged Strength hero
35 strength, 5.0 strength growth, 1 agility, 0.0 agility growth, 24 intelligence, 2.5 intelligence growth
35-41 base damage (so 70-74 damage), 2.0 BAT, 7 base armor
The Black Engine cannot gain or lose agility, and also cannot gain or lose attack speed. Any items that grant attack speed instead grant him 1 damage per attack speed. Because he cannot gain agility he cannot gain attack speed from it.
Q - Napalm Bomb
Fires off a napalm bomb, dealing instant magic damage and magic damage over time to anyone inside, lingering after they leave the area.
50/100/150/200 damage
10/20/30/40 dot for 3 seconds
Burns for 6 seconds, applying the dot to anyone inside. 18/16/14/12 cooldown 140 mana
W - Concussive Shot
Empowers the next auto attack to deal bonus damage and slow the target, while dealing splash damage around the target hit.
30/60/90/120 bonus damage, 30% slow for 1.5/2/2.5/3 seconds, 75% splash in a 125 aoe, 40% splash in a 126-150 aoe
10/9/8/7 second cooldown, 100/115/130/145 mana
E - Unbreakable (passive)
Grants bonus armor and damage reduction to the front of the Black Engine
3/5/7/9 bonus armor, 11/14/17/20% damage reduction
R - Unholy Artillery
Fires off a long range blast of dark energy, dealing damage in an aoe.
Damage 175/250/325
Splash 75% in a 225 aoe
Minimum Range 600
Maximum Range 1200/1500/1800
12 second cooldown, 150 mana
Deals half damage to creeps
Aghs Upgrade
Damage of Unholy Artillery to 200/300/400
Mana cost to 100, projectile speed to 1500
This guy is Ghost Revenant.
>>154718804
Second skill is an obvious STEROID to borrow a term from another gayme. This heavily features in the original Chinese mythology- Monkey King can make his Bar near-infinitely long, wide, dense, etc. He can basically manipulate the matter of the MKB at a godlike level. He's been nerfed a little here, as it looks like he'll get a buff like...
>Monkey King Bar
>Extends melee attack range to 400 for x attacks or x seconds.
But that's too boring on its own, so it looks like we're going to integrate one of the concepts from the original 6.79 Dota 1 build.
>% chance that enemy unit is forced to turn around when struck.

Okay dotards.
You only gain increased stats 24 times correct?
Not 25. Because you start at level 1 with your base stats.
Plus the 20 you get from putting points into stats, that's 24 times you get your stat growths yeah?
which one of you did it
>>154719137
Here's the E, they couldn't have given a more obvious indication that this is an in-game skill. This one seems to embody the core of his original Dota 1 alpha design. However, there are a couple very important things to notice
The skill may be channeled. MK holds his pose for several seconds, and three illusions come out in a first "wave", followed by two more. Their number quickly swells to nine in the next shot, and after that the screen is flooded with them. Is this his ultimate? It's very likely that he can create a whirlwind of illusions that run straight forward while attacking, and if these illusions strike you, there is a chance you will be forced to turn around.
Second, this is probably just for visual effect but...MK's staff dissolves into the air when he spins out his clones, and he is temporarily seen without any weapon at all. It's a possibility that using this skill disarms the player for a few seconds while the illusions are on the screen.
Cont'd
jesus christ peter's stream's like a parody
>>154718804
If anybody should get to disguise themselves as a tree it should be Treant.
>>154719505
So that leaves us with...Either a missing skill or a missing ultimate. Monkey King absolutely does not have two passives. They are not interested in making more boring-to-play heroes. Note that like 5 fucking heroes had a second passive removed in the past 18 months or so.
No idea what it will be, but I do have a very interesting thought for this character-- Because he is shown wielding the MKB by default, he probably has some kind of bonus from the MKB in-game, or perhaps it's cheaper for him, etc. These things could not be done in WC3 engine. My inclination is that his clones will hit with the full effect of MKB if you have MKB. MKB is probably the item in the game that does not have a "home"-- it's fully situational item that is pretty much always built in response to enemy heroes, not for its own sake. Why not give it a "home" with the hero who it directly relates to anyway?
Oh, and here's perhaps the best part: In the trailer, MK emerges from the Dire side at the beginning. We know he'll be a Dire hero because he is basically Satan in Chinese mythology. However, if you pay attention, you'll notice that the Dire ancient is sitting on top of a fucking big ass hill? Later, we see the Radiant ancient on flat ground. We're getting some kind of new map.
If you like the music in the MK trailer, it is called Kecak, and it was invented by a British man to give Indonesian islanders a crazy ritual to do in order to make money from tourists. Can't make this shit up.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WOOUbEirc8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGXcnWUqV-Y
the Dota 2 design of the MKB is directly based on the one from Phantasy Star Online. The item names "Sange" and "Yasha" are also from PSO.

Enchantress can be played two ways, depending on whether you make heavy or occasional use of creeps. If the former, she is as hard as Chen to play well (i.e. pretty fucking hard) and lacks the ability to get an OP draft of ancient creeps, but she can also focus more on supporting allies with healing and whittling down enemies with ult so carry can finish them; this lets you control only one, maybe two creeps at a time to cut down on the micro but still be useful.
But you need to decide which you want to do or else you'll be too middling to be competitive by mid game.

You should still go offlane like in 6.86. Nerfs don't warrant going back to support at all and in reality she has even more potential when she's farmed because of pike now.
>>154723295
I do go offlane, but she still falls off because of her shitty farming ability. She's only really strong before 10 minutes. In the midgame, her damage is good, but she's extremely reliant on her team to get anything done.
>>154723295
IMO it's easy to transition from support into DPS if you have a laning buddy, or better yet an aggressive trilane because of the heal sprites. Keeping a melee offlaner alive will keep up the pressure and mitigate the need for healing later.

Hey guys, could you recommend me a 10th hero? I normally play Kunkka, Meepo, and Storm, but I'm starting to expand and now play Jugg, Puck, Invoker, TA,Tinkerand Naga.
As you can guess, I run all of these mid, but I'm even open to a jungler. I just don't want a role with dependency on a lane partner.

Well she is not the best farmer that is true but you can still enchant creeps and clear junge stacks that way.
You can also buy a midas or maelstrom situationally.
A big problem is getting overzealous after dominating the lane and a good early game, which leads to giving up farm, trying to collect more "free" kills and in reality just ending up feeding once or twice because there were more enemies than expected. Be careful with that god-complex.
>>154724804

Armlet/Echo Sabre are pretty much as "carry" as you can get without losing the game due to lack or mana or utility. Heaven Halberd isn't too bad either. Stay away from Battlefury.
All you need on Underlord is Aether Lense and a Blink Dagger.

Worst item in the game...... can you back that claim up? Can you explain why and how? Just because it's not commonly purchased doesn't mean it's shit, your low bracket is probably just bad.
Shivas doesn't offer shit to a strength hero friend, especially when he wants to "carry overlord"

>>154727475
just remember to play heroes that contribute in calculable metrics, such as stun duration, damage (nerfed), hero healing (nerfed), tower damage, and maintain an above-average apm at all costs, because it's very likely that it comes into the formula.

Same as getting good with any aspect of dota. Play tons of games. like literally tons, 2-3k should be enough.

It can work in a niche drow lineup, but it's kind of weak right now because of echo sabre and dragon lance inclusion.
The enemy team has picked 5 lategame rightclickers (lifestealer, juggernaut, LC, sven, bloodseeker or whatever else). Your team has made comments that they wish to farm for the lategame during the picking stage, and do not desire to gank or fight early. What support or roamer do you pick?

He's just not a hero for 4k baddies like you. Visage got buffed recently, and he might get another buff in 6.89. It really wouldn't be hard for him to break into competitive play again. Even if he does, though, people like you will still suck at him.
>>154731356
Bane if you want to help your team.
Beastmaster if you want to push while your team farms, so you create space and force them to waste time.

Bane is good lane winner with a very strong rotations but he has only 3 abilities and despite fiends grip he is mediocre to bad late game with hexes euls and all others stuns and he also sucks massive dicks with pushing or counterpushing.
I hope chilltoad changes enfeeble besides cast range and minor improvements or replaces it altogether. We already have dk and shitlord for - attack damage, bane might as well get some real nasty debuff. Or make enfeeble an AOE spell or make it reduce all damage sources like silver edge or make it affects creeps, he will get a pseudo pushing ability then, or all of it. It's supposed to be his late game ability that can't be purged with a long cast range but it's fucking shit.

Memedrops fuck him up too hard tho and with shift to tanky cores he doesn't kill everyone faster than they kill you. Leshrac in not a bad hero, he is just out of meta and needs buffs for his survivability.
>How was Lesh ever FOTM? He's trash even without memedrops dumpstering and chamce at a laning phase.
Well, cus he would dumpster any mid hard and just run at you while dealing shit loads of damage and with octameme he was basically timber before timber was cool. Don't disregard him, his stun AOE is giant at later levels and onces enemy bkb is low he with ocratine and shivas can run you down while absorbing all of your damage since he heals off constantly and god forbids there is a save for him like dazzle or ww.

It's strong on paper, but it doesn't really do anything and other skills have more priority over it.
Skill it for laning, offlaners are mostly memetaloning or trade with nukes, brain sap while giving you sustain will also give you more killing potential, same goes for nightmare. Skill it for team fighting, all of your abilities have a horrid 0.5 cast time, you ain't go time to cast all of this shit and you don't want to reveal yourself. You want to initiate out of your glimer/blink, nightmare someone who can interrupt your ult and grip main target that is usually an enemy carry. Even here you have a mismatch since you want to enfeeble the same target for your grip.

And you reveal your presence and your whole ambush/initiation gone to shitters, did you read my post? -120 damage my ass, you will be a retard for maxing it over brain a sap and you NEED nightmare levels for it's cast range. By the time you max enfeeble wr has an aghanim daedalus and she deletes heroes regardless and you wanna grip her anyway, DID YOU READ MY POST? I played bane a lot, I wanted to like that ability, but it's usless early on and isn't worth skilling over nightmare when in late game it doesn't matter all that much.

I have never said you max it early or some shit, of course you prioritize the other spells in a normal scenario.

When you crit you gain a lot of health because of the lifesteal.

Why is it that people who have no idea how orbs work can't accept their ignorance and have to go offtopic?
Maybe the term he used for swapping your currently active orb is "toggle", and if you understood how the orbs work, you should undersand this term.

>>154735168
If you max it after all other skills it doesn't really makes much difference when enemy has plus damage items and strong nukes, yeah it kills their base damage but even void who has high base damage will have diffusal manta and will still fuck people up while wr will still crit people to death. And as I said you don't have time do do it with bad cast times in a late game where people get blown up quick. It's not a good late game spell.

That's an unfair analogy. At least "toggling" your hotd (when another orb is mentioned) makes sense, BUT, if you don't know how the toggling works, then of course you're not gonna get it and think its stupid.
But I agree. He should have said drop and pick up the hotd to swap the active orb instead of "toggle".

What the fuck are you talking about base damage now?
It is a straight up 120 damage reduction, there is nothing complicated going on.

Wings were stomping everyone, they are statistical anomaly in TI does not count.
kys nigger
i miss when SnY wasnt dog shit, it used to be the perfect PA item
>>154736894
The only worse thing about it is that it doesn't pierce bkb, and PA can W onto BKBd heroes now anyway. What's wrong with it? 26% slow instead of 32? Well it's 30% chance to proc instead of 16 as well.
>>154736804
that's such a poor mentality
if you see someone good you don't say "he's an anomaly" you try to reach their level
imagine if all the teams that went to ti6 stopped training because wings is just too much of an anomaly to compete with
>>154736894
I don't think S&Y was ever regularly built on PA, even during the days where S&Y was purchased on every hero under the sun.
>>154736479
It reduces only 'white' number of damage, not bonus 'green' damage and in late game people usually have enough of the 'green' damage to give no fucks about enfeeble that only starts to shine at lvl 3 into late game. Have you played bane outside of maybe few games?

>pick a hero

>>154737054
fucking autist.
It reduces the total dmg by -120.
Doesn't matter if you got 120 white dmg or 80 white and 40 green, you will still, in this case, have 0 dmg.

>-120 dmg
>undispellable
>bad
Nothing still stands, if a carry has a real buttload of damage, lets say 400 which is really a lot and means you bought almost no survivability but only damage, then -120 is still equivalent to a 30% reduction.
AS based carries get their damage reduced by 50% a lot of times.
Stop spouting bullshit please.

You want to grip pa and kill her, not enfeeble, also bkb still prevents it's cast. This guy was faster >>154737903, I was basically explaining it in details how bane's shit cast time and need to jump close and disable things asap does't allow him to blow his cover with enfeeble that also has a shit 0.5 cast time, and bane isn't really popular for agro 2 lanes where you can draft more cancerous things.

Amazing argument, the only nerf he got was nightmare being dispellable, apart from that only buffs. Sure he isn't really a meta favourite, but you are literally just spouting random "facts" to suppprt your bullshit.

How come iron talon is literally wrose than shield+quelling on jungle ursa?
>>154738348
You are Bloodseeker. You have 96% bonus damage against a chosen enemy hero if you bloodrage both yourself and them in a fight. You know this, and because of this you know that this works on creeps as well. You put your icon in the jungle. Your team protests but you ensure them that everything is fine. You are nice about it. You are bloodseeker and you want to win.
You get Iron Talon and Tangoes in that exact order. You head to the jungle, bloodrage enemy creeps in high DPS camps and yourself in low DPS camps. You are bloodseeker and you want to win. You get 4-1-1-1 but level 7, afterwards maxing whatever skill necessary.
You hit level 6, pick up your dagon, and you fight. You are at a lane, ganking the enemy with your team. You are at mid, rupturing and dagoning their mid over and over, or in the jungle farming quicker than any hero in the game. Your arcanes by your side, and your freshly built shadow blade/blink in your hands. You blink into fights and destroy enemies like a tinker who isn't a pussy.
Then you make a choice. You think, am I the carry, or am I not the carry? If you are not the carry you continue building your dagon. The dagon becomes powerful, and you pair it with Eblade, Veil, Aether Lens, whatever necessary to oneshot enemies with ease. If you are the carry, you pick up durability items, AC, items that allow you to deal damage while also dishing it out with Blade Mail and radiance. Mjollnir, AC, Radiance, Blade Mail are in your inventory. You are ready. The enemy carry tries to jump you but you rupture him and run away with your incredible durability. His BKB is out, now is your chance. You attack him with full force, dealing extra damage even on your magical damage from the radiance and mjollnir. You are Bloodseeker. You cannot be stopped.
You end the game 25-0-0, and with the highest hero damage known to man.
Abaddon aghanim is fantastic.

so you're giving enchantress 6100 gold in items just to boost attack range

how desperate are you faggot
>>154739293
I'm sure the ONLY captain that is worth a shit in the entire NORTH AMERICAN CONTINENT is getting kicked.

There's a not a fantasy scenario in this plane of existence where PPD gets booted from EG

i hated rtz initially, but Yung Lean grew on me

>>154738793
althgouh he is retarded, now that there's an item called hurricane pike, there's no reason to build ench aghs. it should be changed.
>>154739454
you also boost her ult dmg her hp and whatever else
>>154739454
If you observe the meta information of his post he is clearly a sub-human retard.
Peruvian resolution @ 1366x768, means he uses some shit tier laptop to play dota
Can't use MSpaint to properly crop image

He is a fucking simpleton

I'm happy whenever my teammate goes bs jungle because i've never seen a bad bs jungle player.except me

eh zai is pretty overrated anyway even if this was true and you couldnt just fly someone over from sweden in less than a day
>>154740291
they would be tired
they usually fly over a week prior
>>154740291
hes overrated in that people think hes some sort of GOD above other supports like crit, jerax, chinese players, hell even the old fnatic supports n shit.
he is UP there with them, but not above them, so in that sense hes overrated, but hes still tier 1 along with the others

man when is raindrops gonna take a nerf
it should lose manareg as your charges go down or some shit
shit man, this item so gud like shiiiiet can't even count the amount of times I have been cucked by a raindrop or cucked enemy players with a raindrop
like
shiiet
even if you dont use the charges defensively its still a RoB worth of regen that you only lose 100g by selling
like
man
shiiet
>>154740747
in theory yes, but then again hes streaming himself playing dotes and earning more than most swedes do, not to mention he is being invited to events and getting payd dosh for that swell.

Once Bloodrage is level 3 you can have it on 2 units at once, so bloodrage yourself, the big creep then talon it, it's about 90% of its health and is pretty much midas speed when dealing with big creeps. Makes jungling that much quicker.
>>154738836
just played against a jungle bloodseeker that cucked me in the offlane every once in a while

Anyone in the 3k area looking to ladder party MMR and improve your game?
I've been doing a lot of research lately and my winrate went from 48% to 50% (with 2000 matches played over the years) and I've been playing with my buddy consistently, but our mates are just not playing as much and we need a third person.
I'm trying not to tilt, and play with critical thinking and focusing on improving my mechanics, drafting and decision making. I play every role and want to improve with another.
I'm going into class but if you want to add me, here's my Steam.

how is that possible with forced 50? I haven't even played that many solo ranked matches
>>154741032
by circus dude i mean shadow shaman, it's like you don't read lore at all.
Why can't I see the small green and red buttons to give commends or reports in the new results screen? Is the game bugging for me? I can still commend or report people in-game through the score window.
>>154734856
I still think its dumb that WK gets FREE lifesteal and increased crit damage against creeps but is still a shitty jungler even with iron talon.
It's like Iron talon doesn't open up options for new junglers as much as it just makes heroes that are already capable junglers even better.
Im actually sure that it is impossible to lose if you have more blinks and more stuns than the enemy team

What did he mean by this?
This guy dives under your tower in minute 4 and kills your carry and your laning support and gets away with it
why's he so good
>>154744895
Literally no damage past 20 minutes.
>>154744895
cus he's shit lategame that's why.
>>154744895
Also renders your wards useless for 3/4 of the game. dont forget the 10 hour silence. nice hero icefag
Why is playing off solo so much less enjoyable than having a second fucktard on your lane
>>154720589
Man you guys suck at making use of the thread.
Discuss. I didnt type all this shit for nothing
so
whos your /improvement/ fu hero?
>>154745031
Offlane? You mean jungler?
>>154745031
Because you're obviously not born for the offlane role. It's all about going innawoods and getting fucking thrilled over every cs you can steal out of their pussy aggressive trilane.
It's about fucking obliterating that piece of shit support who does nothing but right click you instead of pulling camps once he gets out of position.
It's about that EXTRA EXPERIENCE.
Having a second person there just makes some other part of the map weaker unless you absolutely need to shut down their carry.
>>154744730
There's not that many stacks, it might not even have been unbalanced. It's a dumb system but solo mmr != party mmr and most people have a party mmr that's like 500-1k lower than their real mmr.
>>154745031
Offlane is only for high test players
What if there was a reverse version of Riki's backstab? Like a hero that received less damage when attacked from behind?
>>154745292
he'd probably have like 30% winrate in 5k+ bracket since his counter is literally either ignoring him or attacking him at the front

Always max Reality Rift first and get 1 point in crit before maxing out stun.
Always buy treads so you can tread switch to INT to cast stun, back top STR to right click.
Level your ult around the same time you get Armlet so you can knock down towers fast.
Get Echo Sabre for more tanky illusions, more INT and some mana regen.
Build items that are situationally good, whether it be Manta, BKB, Heart, etc.

how to fix shadow dance, the most broken passive-active in dota 2 by valve corporation:
Passive part removed, regeneration and movespeed bonuses only apply during active part of Shadow Dance.
When Shadow Dance is activated while Slark is unseen, instead of its normal cooldown it will go on 7/7/6 seconds of cooldown and 85% of the manacost (85% of 120 is 102, so effective manacost is 18 when unseen and without mana cost reduction effects) will be refunded. There is no indicator whether you're seen by the enemy or not.

And it would be ironic without Zai and Artour.
>>154751928
obviously invoker.but i wouldn't pull him off
Could pull off antimage but i hate antimage.
Is there a better feeling than hitting a long range AA ult?
when should i calibrate ranked to get 4k+? when all my games start being in vh-skill?
>>154714631
I dont think so. The UI is pretty much the same for everyone.
C is very situational. If you're jungling get an iron talon first, then build into a shadow blade or blink. After that, fight with your ult as much as possible (assuming you can win duels). Blade mail is good, after that it is situational. Try to learn what all the items do.
>>154752756
you are probably good but just DO NOT ever play support when calibrating
I have on 2 different accounts had where I win a game supporting and then my average mmr is lower the next game
pretty sure it is based off tower damage and xpm and gpm or something now since hero damage, kda, and hero healing dont affect calibration any more
>1 hour 20 minutes until neo-EG
>>154752695
yes.
hitting an invis hero with sunstrike.
>>154753053
EG with RTZ/Zai/PPD/Fear/Universe was the best one.
How do i play with a team where i did the most dmg as support abbadon with meka and vlad?

Is 3 hearts + aghs + AC +octarine the optimal way to play Bristleback?
>>154752695
none of that meme is true though
you just guess where they're going to be in a few seconds and let it fly. It's a 40 second cooldown so it doesn't matter if you spam it.
>>154753310
Ring of repick
>>154751928
probably anti-mage
What if there was a hero that started at level 25 but lost XP instead of earning it?
>>154753325
But it is true
>you see that an enemy is low HP
>take into account movement speed and the angle you're shooting from, as well as the different speeds of the tracer and the actual projectile to travel, to increase likelihood of hitting the target

TI4 EG will always be the best EG in my heart
>>154753310
>more quills meme
lets forget bristlel gets a free rapier worth of damage from warpath
seriously if you don't play him as a pos 1 farming core, kys
>>154753743
But playing him pos 1 is a waste of a pos 1 as there are thousands of better pos 1 heroes and he is countered immediately by silver edge at least if youre offlaner you dont lose the game for your team when you force the enemy to get a silver edge
>>154736570
Sing isn't the same guy when he plays tryhard to when he is streaming. Quite a few people have said this. No idea what EE is like when tryharding but his voice would likely trigger me.
>>154753325
>doesnt matter if you spam it
I love playing against AA's that think this way
game is so fucking easy when you see random AA ult's being whiffed every minute or so, like 'okay so that one ganker on their team can't solo kill me anymore' or 'k now we can take rosh' or 'k now those TWO heroes cant kill me anymore because I'm slark or alch or whatever hero that can surviva a gank through healing'
just so you know if you are ever on my team I will rip you a new one if I see you spamming your ult all over the map for no good reason, especially if there is potential for a kill/pickoff in the next 40 seconds
