is Crystal "Maiden" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land?
this "Maiden" doesnt look like a maiden to me , hell Lina the Slayer is more of a maiden compared to this slut.

What do you guys think will be the closest of the first set of games in 7 hours?
>>NewB vs MVP Ph.
>>Wings vs. WG.Unity
>>DC vs. LGD.FY
>>VP vs. NP

New MVP are too shit to win vs anyone
Wings are too good to lose vs anyone
NP are too shit to win vs anyone
DC vs LGD.FY will therefore be the closest.

who's your dota husbando?

I did it lads. I finally figured out why the west is so shit at Dota. It's because it's an inherently communist game.

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"
This means everyone must try as hard as they can, but they only get what they need. Supports get little, carries just get it all. Contrast this with capitalism, where everyone competes with eachother, and the best ends up on top. If this were the case, carries and supports would compete for last hits with eachother, and the one who gets least would naturally become a support.

IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW

How was your last game d2g?
I was the Sniper. I love to hate games like this, from minute 3 Axe and Night just tried to gangbang me under tower.
I eventually left lane and just farmed the hard radiant camp by ancients and the two medium camps at the entrance to radiant jungle when it was safe.

Died like 8 times in the first 20 minutes but managed to get a few kills to get my pike and be a cancerous high ground defender until we finally won.

>>161712571
They're actually totally different despite what it sounds like. /u/ as a board is much, much more romance and story focused than /y/ is, which is almost all porn. I mean if they have a rivalry it's probably more about romance vs sex as a subject instead of lesbians vs gays as the object.

>>161714416
>>161714490
Yeah, Valve needs to update what is considered Normal, HS and VHS. 3.2k and 3.8k (or whatever it is) are definitely not it.

VHS should be only VHS so 7000MMR and higher.

High skill should probably start at 6000MMR and last for 7000MMR.

Normal skill should probably be from 4800 MMR to 6000MMR.

Stupid faggot should be anything below 5000MMR

There is no MMR inflation unless you are 8000MMR or higher. There are already plenty of 7000MMR and higher average matches.

You are just below dog shit skill that should delete dota

>there is no MMR inflation

???

Do you not remember when the highest MMR players were 5.5k MMR? Then valve adjusted the threshold for MMR changes so people with 5.5k would stop getting +5MMR and bitching.

Now we have 9k MMR players.

>>161714802
I think you underestimate just how bad 2k is lad.

>>161714815
Yeah, I don't know why DotA 2 doesn't have a seasonal ladder. Every other competitive game does it that way.

>>161714838
and there are already plenty of 7000 mmr average games in Europe/North America.

Just that the maybe 0,00001% of dotaplayers like RTZ, Matu can experience some sort of mmr inflation doesn't mean it covers the entire system

>>161714875
No, they just need to make people lose MMR if they don't play ranked for x time, with it progressing slowly to their hidden MMR.

New cosmetic:

Cosmetic MMR. For $1 you can buy 10 MMR. You can buy as many as you'd like. Might finally give Valve the money needed to fund Half Life 3.

Thoughts?

rough image of MMR inflation
left is how it used to be, right is what we have now

the only thing it does is increase queue times, give larger MMR differences in averages (i.e. an unbalanced match), and makes it easier for people to create a buffer where no matter how many games they lose they can just spam a fotm hero to regain their MMR quickly.

it saddens me how valve has defiled the elo system as a cheap tool to increase player grinding instead of using it as a tool to measure player skill

More than just a little rough, you're implying no one used to be above 4k. If you think that mmr isn't a accurate depiction of player skill, why haven't you joined a pro team you 2k cunt

>>161715565

I would argue that ALL e-sports are dead in the US, a paradox when most competitive games are made here.

People here are more willing to get tickets to see highschool sports rather than international e-sports. Local e-sports in the US is tiny compared to other countries like china and korea.

what are you talking about, the old mmr line stops at 5.5k. I didn't state that 2k players are secretly 9k players, I stated that the difference between a 7k and 9k player is comparable to the difference between a 4k and 5k player in the old system.

>>161715715
started from 3.6k in the old system and then easily got 5k in this inflated system.

Not like it matters both regions have the same MMR inflation issues
>but but EU has more players and more a higher skill ceiling
It's way easier to gain MMR where there are more players because it means the MMR averages of games will be closer. Then you also have the fact that the EU region didn't break the upper MMR limit that the other regions had either until valve changed the MMR system.

No he needs a rework. The game eventually gets to the point where items make 90% of the difference (how much better is Tide with a blink than without? Or Sven with Crit?) in winning and Brews ulti destroys all his items for a good 20 seconds.

Oh wow 30 DPS burn that sure is worth not being able to use any of the extremely powerful, game changing items dota offers. EG are world champions at Dota and for whatever reason PPD picked Brew and they fucking lost because he's the worst hero in the game.

Thats still wrong.
The only inflation is how high you can calibrate, since as patches has shown: You don't calibrate for win/loss, but from gameplay data

Very High being about 3700 MMR isn't... meaningful when you can Calibrate to 4999 MMR max.

I'm not flaming people. I'd call them out on bad plays they continued making, tell them when they're about to die, tell them what not to do.
Doesn't really matter to these people I guess.

I mean personally I'd think if someone tp'd into lane 5 times in a row to die to Slark in the exact same way each time, they'd stop.

But they don't stop. They just keep doing it. No matter how much you beg them to farm the jungle you just warded instead.
These fuckers refuse to learn so w/e. Slightest hint of someone being a stubborn fuck and I just mute and ignore them and focus on the rest of the team or myself.

True but Valve does cater to pubs so they'll keep spending money. It's why stupidly OP heroes like Slark and Invoker keep not getting nerfed and receiving new sets, and why PA dagger isn't nerfed (she has an arcana and a nerf might affect people buying it).

>>161721119
above 9500 you get decent teammates most of the times (in terms of general human being, not dota skills)
below 8500 you should get flamers and easy tiltable players alot, players don't get much worse below this mark, it's just makes harder to get out of this trench
to improve your behavior score you need to, duh, improve your behavior, stop flaming teammates at every little mistake and stop getting reported
also i think that commending improves it too

>>161721418
Slark is only strong because of pubs.

Invoker needs a minor nerf.

PA dagger is disgusting and needs to be gutted.

>>161721486
How do you farm a lane when PA spams that dagger at you?

>>161721014

>>161721467
Reports decrease your BS based on their BS versus yours, and also the raw amount of reports.
If someone with 2000BS reports you with 9000BS, your score might go down 1.

If 9 people with 2000BS report you in a single game you might drop a lot.

>>161721467
>Behavior score is so low you get matched with people that report regardless if you mute them and never say a word

Valve is sick of the lower bracket story line.

>>161721268
I might as well be. I calibrated really early when I started playing and was put into 1.6k and I haven't played much ranked since. I'm sure I've improved tremendously since then. In this match, I had a teammate with 1.5k MMR showcased while the enemy team had a 3.5k MMR showcase, then there's shit like that QoP in between.

>>161720696
It is

no real sports have a lower bracket

my real big problem with the system is if the upper bracket winner gets a free win in the bo5. That isn't right. You can't have an asymmetrical final

>>161720682

>>161721486
>Slark is only strong because of pubs.

That's exactly what I said

>Invoker needs a minor nerf.

No he needs a bunch of major nerfs. The trade off to being able to do everything is that you're only so-so at everything, not incredibly powerful at level 8 and only scale better as the game goes. I mean he actually has his own Ravage that DISARMS on a much lower CD. Just, another heroes ultimate, as a skill, and it's fine. Jack of all trades, Ace in all those trades as well.

>PA dagger is disgusting and needs to be gutted

But it won't be because that decreases the chance of someone buying the Arcana, doesn't matter how many lanes people lose to it. RTZ made PA popular, she became picked, Valve realized this and made an Arcana and made her nerf proof.

>>161721527
You buy Talon and go Jungle. The only person that can lane against PA dagger would be Nyx, Ogre or Axe all with 6 mangoes and I'm not even memeing.

usually a groupstage with 4 groups of 4, they play one or two games against all the other groupmembers, win is 3 points, draw is 1 each and loss is 0, then after three or six games the two top teams move onto the final tourney segment where it's single game elimination for the remaining 8 teams with the first place of group A meeting the second place of group D and vice versa, same with B and C. All teams get to show what they can do in the group stage. some teams get a tough group but again, a tru champ should be able to beat any team in the tournament.

>i should be able to win every game i play at this mmr.
>he thinks the games when forced 50 is going his way are the "real" games

>>161722754
Bulba is a lot better than people give credit. He has lots of game knowledge is an excellent coach.

guys i dreamt of bulldog. we bodyswapped and he had like a 10 inches dick

>>161722823
You must be 18 or over to post on this website

>>161722815

He is also a skilled assassin who never gets caught on the scene.

>>161722754
did bulba stole your gf or something
why do you complaining about him even though he doesn't show in games anymore

>>161722841

>destroys the results of the last 4 teams he plays on
>but he's a good boy he dindu nuffin

is linkens a must buy on heroes like weaver and storm or is bkb just better?

>>161722909
but i only love zai

Count down to the major?

>>161722929

Not necessarily a must buy. It's pretty situational for Storm, but bkb is definitely a better choice if you want a defensive item. For Weaver it's usually the first item to get since the stats are useful for him in the early phase.

team secret did better with him wtf are you talking about
dc never had a chance in the first place

Why does reddit complain about shit (bugs and whatnot) that would never happen in a real game?

E.g. complaining about ability swapping location when a rubick tries to steal x from a kunkka who is lotus orbed while rubick also is already X'd

they really can't catch a break since sometimes if envy decides to fuck off to jungle and farm all game Aui would be the one throwing his body to the enemy

Some times, you go AFK farming to avoid tilting, and it works.
Radiant won they didn't rax at 20-25 minutes.

Centaur ult is also good, because its a gigantic "oh, we are initiating" sign
Blink Stomp also helps

In all honesty: It was pretty bad. But at the least I stopped tilting after the 2 first deaths, and just kept on farming.

Your MMR drops in ranked, slowly.
In Unranked it drops faster, but rises faster.

Guys what game are we going to watch considering they're all going to be going on at the same time?

Why are there so few EU players/teams? I thought this was the strongest region in Dota LUL

>>161723724
Yes? I've thrown lots of games where I'd rather not carry shit eating animals to victory. It's bad for the soul.
