When do teammates get not-worthless and insufferable? 4k? 5k? im at 2.5k here, I honestly win mid 90% of the time but only win 60%ish of games
>>162028710
In anything below 9k if you play mid you apparently have to simultaneously win all 3 lanes by yourself. Also don't expect any assistance to get kills if you rotate, they won't pay attention and will just ping you and yell spanish into the mic as if you could have 1 v 3'd.
>>162028710
Never. Watching a 9k stream and people still are toxic.
>>162028710
never
>>162028910
lol midcucks thinking they're hot shit.
Offlane --> support are the only three positions with honor. The honor of SACRIFICE goddamnit
Not this whole tangos/salve/clarity/ward/babysit pls.
>>162029103
The fastest way to climb out of low mmr is to play either 1 or 2. Supporting shit players is not a good strategy.
>>162029103
This man gets it. Offlaners and supports are the true playmakers. In 99% of games the most complicated thing a carry has to do is hit creeps if the supports and offlaner are doing their job right.

True dat. That's why I offlane.
It really is absolute fucking misery. As soon as I switched even from 5/4 position to 3 I rose like 500 MMR.

You're never going to achieve it, though.

Buy an account and get the MMR you truly deserve anon.
>>162029576
anon pls my heart can't take it.
>>162029103
I've played every role. Every role at low mmr levels is just a fucking nightmare.
You mid? everyone sucks and you have to do everything.
You support? you buy wards and nobody pays attention to them anyway and somehow no matter how much you pull or stack or harass your carry gets no farm
you carry? you will end up getting nobody supporting you in your lane, or have an impossible lane where you never get any space.
offlane? you can maybe not feed and get some farm, but the rest of your team is going to get destroyed while you do that.
dota is just a never ending nightmare.
>>162029576
There is a nonzero chance I will achieve it. Might as well try.
>>162028710
When you finally grow up. If you think there's an arbitrary line that divides the toxic from the non-toxic NO THERE ISN'T AND YOU'LL BE THERE FOREVER SO YOU BETTER GET USED TO IT.

Swear to god, I once played a 60-70 minute game with a sniper and slark I think.
I played visage and had the most damage at the end of the game. I was even in kills/assists with Slark and was 7 slotted.
And HE STILL complained that shit was some how my fault. Playing Visage with like 60+ armor and a fucking mjolnir and shit. Hell, i think i might have had a bloodthorn that time too.
Mainly peruvians and shit that do that though.

its not even people having bad games. People have bad games. Everyone is supposed to suck at low mmr levels, its just the inability to basic shit and not die 15 times in a 40 minute game that drives me insane.
I don't expect people to be dota gods, I'm certainly not, but people fail at the most basic shit.

why did valve decide to do another 'lel 8 months with no patch xDxD' meme AGAIN?

But jungle legion is unironically good if you can get blink+brown boots and ult in 8 minutes and start ganking right away. It's only the shitters that go midas that need to go fuck themselves.
Whats the deal with Chilongqua? Hates the game but plays it every day and uploads a vid about it every day. He must neet lmao
Unless youtube is his "job"
>>162031092
More like fuck the second to last pick for not picking a support.
In general, nothing is more frustrating than going into a game planning to play a certain hero, announcing such, then being expected to pick someone else or play an unconventional role for your hero.
>randoming
If you know how to play that hero you better offer to swap if they freely admit they don't know how to play their random.
In general, always try to question them about their comfort level with the hero since they randomed.
It's their fault they picked a hero they can't play. It's your teams fault if noone on the team can play it either.
>steals cs
Cut the tree and pull your hard camp yourself. You can actually farm it while your "support" loses half their hp tanking a creep wave.
>doesnt know how to stack or pull or control equilibrium
See above. Carries are perfectly capable of pulling the lane from the hard camp, which stacks itself whenever you pull at :53.
>no tp
Give him a tp or follow him around so he doesnt get caught alone. Blame him if he forces a bad fight
>bad pick
Tell them to play and build safe as they wont be doing anything this game besides being a meat shield as the enemy instinctively focuses them.
>jungle legion
Nothing wrong if they stack and gank often. Stacking the hard camp near your lane will attract them to be nearby to gank.
Git gud

>>162031767
The entire time you jungle you're completely and utterly useless.
I have seen people dive tier 1 tower at low hp while LC farms small camp and doesn't even try.
It CAN be useful in theory, but if you're going to be so greedy for 8 minutes of ditch all lanes why not just pick Enigma? Rush mech which is way easier, get fast eidolons for pushing, and have a sick late game. Plus its probably faster even and gives you better spells. I just think there are a lot of other greedy supports that farm faster and do more with it than an LC.
Post fantasy teams for tomorrow.

HELDEN STERBEN NICHT
>>162032729
can I get a real answer
thanks x
>>162032705
>>162032865
That basically is the honest answer man.
I figure that Uni wouldn't have swapped to Secret if he didn't have some sort of dislike for PPD. Sumail was still young and love Fear who stayed so that would explain them, especially since Fear apparently got to call some shots.
But Arteezy apparently takes losses badly, seems to have an ego, and shit like that.
I get the impression that PPD was much more systematic, took absolute authority, and everyone listened to him. Having a unified decision maker is what won them so much success, and now that's gone they've fallen a bit. But when you have a strong leader that calls everything you're going to get a bit off butt hurt from people that question your decision making.
>>162032854
>btw, i proved mmr is a lie

>>162032865
have you seen true sight ep 2?
ppd is literally like Mushi but with results backing it up and arteezy doesn't want that because he's a pussy and wants to play with friends than achieving shit with a capable leader.

That's sort of what I figured. Although maybe not as much of a dick.
Then again, Mushi wasn't all that bad: just driven.
Its really the way you need to be in order to win a TI. Good that he got out of it from then on, he'll probably have a less stressful, easier, more profitable career now.
>>162033860

>>162033464
ppd wants everyone to do what he says and doesn't like people who talk way too much(aui) and that ehome thingy with fear is reasonable since fear is the co captain.

>>162034730

>>162035112
They're gonna nerf him yet again. Every time I start liking a hero it all goes to shit.
what if you could temporarily remove an enemy hero from the game?
>>162035471
Reaper's Scythe
Stuns the target enemy hero, then deals damage based on how much life it is missing. Heroes killed by Reaper's Scythe will have 10/20/30 seconds added to their respawn timer. Any kill under this effect is credited to Necrophos.
>>162035260
I was honestly amazed when they took away his stun, seemed like a pretty fucking big nerf to me. Apparently not.
I really hope its not too major, though it probably will be. If he isn't outright dumpstered I'll keep on him because he's one of the most fun heroes in the game.
There's no hero out there with his ability to go over cliffs that easily, and reposition with great initiation. Absolutely BTFO tinker, broods, and other cancer heroes.
>>162034730
What if there was a TV show about a monkey king?

is a meme?
>>162036502
No.
Only guesses. I'd wager that he'll be a the first strength based illusion hero, and because of that he'll probably be an offlaner.
And of course he'll have some sort of jungling ability or mobility ability.
>>162036782

/ccncdota2
>>162038783
Smurfing isn't technically breaking any rules, you're just starting over. They also don't do dodgy shit like spamming bots so they get enough XP for ranked.
I can't imagine ever getting into trouble for being 'too good' in a bracket, it's a lot worse having people too shit for one.
>it's fine cause it's low priority xd
>>162039091
Ah I see, so it's one rule for one set of guys upsetting the matchmaking balance and a different rule for the other guys upsetting the matchmaking balance, I see.

>>162039129
>getting into low priority in the first place
>>162039129
He's just trying to have fun!
>>162038783
ok
there are more games being ruined in high MMR's because
1. the amount of high mmr games are smaller than lowmmr games and thus the effect of new accounts is greater in these brackets
2. most sold accounts use botgames to levelup so lowmmr games aren't affected
3. the only games ruined for low mmr players are boosters who don't boost that far since its cheaper to buy a new account
and you also have to consider that playing with a player of higher skill is far more preferable than playing with a player of lesser skill even if both situations are shit
and you also have to consider that most 3k players cannot even differentiate between a 4k player and a 5k player so the amount of "smurfs" in their bracket is highly exaggerated
>>162039225
ccnc would be a qt if he didn't have a long rectangle for a face
>>162039259
I'm sorry my internet provider is shit
>>162039183
What do you think there's gonna be more of: good players frequently smurfing in lower brackets or player's who think they're much better than they are buying accounts / getting boosted?
Judging by the amount of 'ME UNGA, TEAM BUNGA' I see everywhere the answer is pretty clear.

I used to love CK, but him being 'le hardest carry' in the game is just bullshit, there's too many ways to deal with him now.
Having super strong illusions don't mean shit when there's a 140 second cooldown between using them, it's not constant pressure like a Naga or Terrorblade.
So much shit gets rid of them and it's even easier to counter his slow ass stun and reality rift.
His illusions don't even do that much damage against buildings anymore since the 30% damage reduction.
>>162040098

Sure, but I think I deserve teammates who try their hardest as well.

Today was a good day boys, I have time for one more, but I don't want to risk going to sleep angry given the comeback in that weaver game

Its mainly his farming problems though I think. Split pushing and base racing is hilarious with him since even a whole team can't keep up.
But anyone that knows the game rapes him.
>Make stun non-disjauntable

He's already amazing early game but he needs a weird balancing to be practical.
>>162040772
>>162040838
>>162041430
I think its more possible than a lot of people expect desu.
I think EG will win against Wings 70%, VP is a toss up. Maybe 40% chance there. VP is doing fucking amazing, but if EG comes out of Wings strong then they might have their head out of their ass.
It would require VP gettng tilted some how, but EG could win narrowly.

/d2g/ I have friends that are 4.5k that know I am better than them. I just calibrated at 2.5k when mmr first came out and havent played ranked at all until last month. Im at 3.1k right now by just randoming every game.
Did I fuck up by not playing ranked until now? Or can I climb faster by picking my good offlane heroes
>>162042975
fuck you faggot
they need to remove randoming from ranked
>>162043042
Lol says you, shitter. I linked my dotabuff. Ive had fine games randoming. Obviously im not doing it last pick though
>>162042975
no you cant. re-calibrate or buy an account like everyone else
if thats what you calibrated at then you deserve to be there in all honesty. yea you dun goofed. if you dont feel like gaining any mmr just keep playing offlane and/or support
>>162043201
I mean I calibrated at that MMR 3 years ago, then didnt play a single ranked game until last month.
Everybody was so much worse at the game back then
what if global silence worked on towers
>>162042330
Make his aghs do something like make his stun bounce to a random target within 600 1/2/3 times like WD's cask. Also make every one of his illusions throw a half-damage mini-stun bolt at a random target within 600 every time he casts his stun.
Would fit his el oh el randumb xd nature and be viable.

why was this ever even a meme?
all Phantasm does is make 3-4 summoned melee creeps with mediocre HP and damage. If you're level 16 with armlet, bkb, treads & aether lens, then all phantasm does is create 3 or 4 of these:
>1180 HP
>130 DPS (153 with crit)
>dies instantly to hex/mana drain/etc
>can be stolen by enchantress
I mean holy shit, they're literally weaker than aghanims panda ultimate

>>162053818
riki. Don't try to win, just try to negate their best player. Try to stalk them, set up ganks with your vision and cloud in every fight
your path to winning isn't to carry the game, its to shut down their best player so he can't carry his shitty allies. Once they fall apart, you'll get fat from killing their supports

>if you don't play a ranked game every 5 days your mmr starts decreasing; (x-2500)*0.01 where x is your mmr every 5 days, if you have less than 2500 mmr you don't lose any. Following this formula a 4000 mmr player loses roughly 15 mmr every 5 days, and a 5500 player loses roughly 30.
>if you are on a win streak you gain bonus mmr per win, starting at 3 wins in a row you get an extra 5 mmr +2 mmr per additional win
>if you are on a loss streak you lose extra mmr per loss, starting at 3 losses in a row you lose an extra 3 mmr + 1 per additional loss
>Once a year (maybe after TI) snap back everybody's mmr towards 2500; (x-2500)/1.6 + 2500 where x is your mmr. Following this formula a 4000 mmr player becomes 3438, and a 1500 mmr player becomes 1875 and a 9000 player becomes 6.5k

Well yeah if you detour into armlet so you can kill yourself faster since armlet hurts like hell unless you have a lot of regen, lifesteal, or Io to keep your hp up.
And especially not if you get an aether lens.

>>162057878
im not gonna lie that was sick
>>162057959
armlet is a free +25 damage +475 hp on your illusions, no hp cost there
aether lens + armlet means you have +15 hp/s regen when armlet is off on top of your base regen
>>162058116
Which is still 20+ pure damage a second.

>>162058317
it takes 13 seconds in a fight before armlet actually costs you any HP
it gives +475 hp and +7.75 HP/s regen, then costs 45 hp/s, so it breaks even after 13 seconds
what else could you buy as cheap as armlet to buff up your illusions and hero at the same time?

Yes and no.
While armlet is on, assuming you take no damage you'll get down to your pre armlet hp after that long, however once you toggle armlet off any hp you lost from the active is not refunded.
You are losing that hp outright, but it's on a buffer as long as you keep the armlet on.
>>162058493
HP removal can be pure or magical damage type. Not to be nitpicky but he is correct in stating it's pure, it's just pure hp removal.

but then you gain it back when you turn armlet on again
as long as you're in a fight, armlet is giving you 475 bonus HP minus the drain.
Once you're at low HP, it starts creating free HP when you toggle it
>>162058625
For reference.
Most of these deal pure damage to remove the hp, but Zeus's static field is magical and specter's dispersion dotes out hp removal as either physical, magical or pure depending on the incoming source of damage.

Hes right (still a retard for saying armlet is pure which = hp removal) but it's called HP removal so it doesn't cancel blinkdagger and reflect off stuff like blademail/nyx.

thanks guys
>>162059209
It's actually a windows screensaver file.
>>162059451
HP removal is merely a flag. The damage type of hp removal is either pure, magical or physical.
Most hp removal deals pure damage, but some types deal physical and some deal magical.
Most hp removal is pure damage, such as Necro's Heartstopper Aura or Huskar's Burning Spear health cost or Armlet of Mordiggian's health cost.
>>162059598
what the fuck, dota is so stupid
now i remember that they changed this like 2 years ago
how can anyone hope to really learn this game? thatll be the death of it to shit like overwatch that has two abilities and even simple mechanics like "armor" or "shield" just = health

>EU pubs.

>>162059451
Yes, but it's calculated off of your magic resistance or armor. So it's magic damage that is done as HP removal, not just HP straight up hp removal.
>>162059598
>Most hp removal deals pure damage, but some types deal physical and some deal magical.
>Most hp removal is pure damage
This is incorrect, again HP removal does not deal damage ever, just remove HP and in some cases it's based off your HP.
>>162059501
yes and what do you think a windows screensaver file is? its an executable displaying fullscreen images. look it up
>>162059694
>>162059694
>it's based off your HP.
Meant magic resist or armor.
>>162059663
They took out composite damage and shit like that already, this is just needed or some skills would be too broken if they canceled blink dagger or healing items.
>>162059694
Wrong, it deals damage, because that's how the engine works. The difference is hp removal has a non reflect flag to it, so it will not trigger any effects caused by taking damage which has the reflect flag, which includes reacting to blademail, disabling consumables, disabling blink dagger, and triggering "I am under attack" lines.
>>162059694
>>162059765
Oh, also the main difference between regular damage and hp removal is that it ignores damage manipulation like Soul Catcher or critical hits.
HP removal is not a damage type in and of itself, but a flag that causes the damage type to not react to damage amplifiers or reducers (except in the case of magical damage, which can still be negated via spell immunity, blocked by magic barriers and is reduced or amplified by magic resistance)
http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Damage_types#Flags
>>162059765
>Wrong, it deals damage
Even IF its coded like that, it still is not correct to say it's dealing damage.
There are multiple skills in the game that will not heal back HP removal as it's not considered damage done and the skills are worded as "any damage taken in the last 2 seconds" If HP removal was """"damage"""" like you state (by quoting the wiki like a moron) then they would fully heal all HP removal "damage" done, however it doesn't work like this and they won't heal HP removal.
Please stop referring to HP removal as damage, it's completely incorrect and the only source you're quoting is the wiki which any retard can edit.
>>162060170
Except that the hp removal flag specifically causes any damage from hp removal to ignore any damage modifiers.
This is how the dota engine works. It's easily accessible by anyone. The game can only remove hp via damage, that's simply how the engine works. Just because you don't like the idea that people prefer a simple system where damage = reduced hp with a handful of flags instead of creating an entirely new method to reduce hp doesn't make you correct. It makes you an idiot.
They said they changed Necro's Heartstopper to be negative health regeneration right? Well if you actually go into the game files you'll see that it actually deals pure damage every 0.1 seconds based on the target's hp.
This is such a stupid thing to argue about too, so I'm just going to stop. Take a programming class and maybe you'd understand why they chose the simpler method of just making hp removal a special damage type instead of creating a new method of hurting a unit.
Or fuck, just look at the abilities in game. It'll straight up say
HP Removal and Magical or Pure as the damage type.

It's pretty ridiculous in fights. But it's awkward to use too.
Not hard in and of itself to use, but rather fights quickly get messy and it can be difficult to keep your creep actually with you since people get force staffed around and blinks and all kinds of stuff like that.

>The game can only remove hp via damage, that's simply how the engine works
I've already stated I agree with you on this point.
HOWEVER stating it is damage is incorrect, just because it's coded in such a way doesn't mean it's correct to refer to it as damage from a game play perspective.
>Take a programming class and maybe you'd understand why they chose the simpler method of just making hp removal a special damage type instead of creating a new method of hurting a unit.
If you want to refer to it in that way, then the correct wording to avoid confusion would be "damage that doesn't cancel blink dagger(in most cases), get reflected or get healed by a damage reversal spell" or simply hp removal, referring to it as damage.
And again
STOP quoting the wiki if you want your argument to mean shit, see pic related? it says health reduction not damage.
Make take a class that requires some form of intelligence and not braindead shit like programing that any retard with 90iq and a half decent memory can do.

So let me get this straight. You queue for ar and you're not ready to play the role you're randomed. Then you be really racist to Australians while playing exclusively on the Australian server. Worst gamemode pound for pound. They should make ar be the lowpri mode instead so sd can be fun again
So is the Monkey King update gonna fix the whole "Every SINGLE GAME WITHOUT EXCEPTION you don't 5 stack is ruined by non-whites" meme Dota has going? It sure would be incredible to just boot up Dota, find a game and have fun but that's 100% impossible at this point.
I'm serious here guys I know it's popular to shit on poor monkeys but EVERY GAME is fucking RUINED by them in one way or another, if it's feeding couriers or a bought account they just taint Dota in every way.

Dota's character designs are straight dark high-fantasy. Most of the character designs are from WC3, with Warcraft starting out as a Warhammer game that ended up not getting the license. Dota has minimal anime designs, despite one of it's characters literally being from an anime. The designs are in line with western fantasy motifs, with additional influence from Final Fantasy.
League's characters have no cohesive artstyle which is a bad thing except for the fact that they can pander to literally every group. League's champions are partially designed to cater to players sexual appetites/porn artists. This is why the game has multiple loli and shota characters despite them not making sense in a battlefield environment. Game also includes lots of furry characters, of which dota has comparatively few.
tl;dr teenagers and perverts like league because the character sets represent a wider range of sexual fetishes than dota, this audience doesn't know what "cohesive art-style" even means, and they most certainly don't care. They just fap to jynx and annie.

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."

mek on support is dated meme, you can't build it fast enough before it becomes useless
the only exceptions are wisp and oracle (since it works well with tether and false promise) and sometimes chen
you should also consider building (if you can afford) glimmer cape since nobody carries detection even in pro games and lotus orb (if there are things to reflect or dispel)
it's kinda hard to cover itemization for support without writing a proper guide and it doesn't matter that much since your retarded carry will go 1 vs 5 and feed anyway

I'm never going to finish either of these quests.
They're deal a bunch of damage to enemy structures while yours are under attack and stun enemies with abyssal then kill or assist in killing them.
Either we lose, or we win so fast I can't actually finish building an Abyssal AND it's so much of a stomp they never are attacing our structures long enough to amass the thousands of damage necessary.
Halp, I just wanna move along the quest line.

>>162064385

>>162064430
The abyssal one is easy as heck, just go full retard and build it first/second.
how anxious would you be if you would know there is slacks behind your back?
>>162064385
7/10 as good as every prediction due to shitty random format
>>162064385
2/10 originally 0/10 but I gave 2 for the effort
>>162064375
I bet she had a hard time finding the stump in that forest
>>162064542
Again, either I lose or we win so fast I can't buy an Abyssal.
The one time the game went on long enough for me to get it I only got 1 stunned dude before our creeps killed the ancient.
And other times when I rush it we get shitstomped because it's hard to fight with only a skull basher brown boots.

They've got the cash once the tickets are sold, doesn't matter how often they turn up.

Depends on heroes, but usually just maxing out survival and mobility is the best since you can spam your spells in fights longer and safer. Also helps with initiating or counter initiating and chasing since supports have the most disables.
If you get rich though you should always just get shit that buffs your team like aura items, eblade to save carry or fuck their carry, scyth, etc.

Can Necrophos ever be made viable without first removing the lmao no buyback from his aghs?
>>162066173
HOW TO FIX NECROPHOS IN 6.89:
Sadist:
>Remade entirely
>Whenever necrophos deals damage, he gains 8/12/16/20% of that damage as both life and mana spread out over 6 seconds. Effect is halved against creeps (4/6/8/10%)
>20/30/40/50% of all damage dealt to enemy heroes cannot be healed for 60 seconds.
>Includes all damage from spells, attacks, items, heartstopper aura.
Example:
>Necrophos hits an enemy with a dagon for 300 HP in damage
>Necrophos gains 10 hp/s regen and 10 mana/s regen for 6 seconds
>Enemy can't heal 150 from max HP for 60 seconds.
>it's a rerun of the "russian team does great before a valve event but then goes out in the first round after the group stages" episode

>Pyrion and Sheever.

I hope he has some form of Nimbus cloud or vaulting/climbing through trees as mobility, and then I also hope he has the ability to disguise himself as a tree (take a tree's place, so it's not too obvious).
Obviously he'll need an illusion spell too.
I'd love it if he has an MKB by default too. Obivously not the damage, but a passive that gives 5%/9%/12%/15% chance to minibash, and maybe a passive or active component that gives true strike.
You'd never have to buy an MKB on him, but I hope that's the point. His game model is already holding one.
I hope he ends up being a really fun offlaner/roamer with really high mobility and is difficult to catch, but is also somewhat tanky and able to take a few hits.
