How do I have fun in this version? I've had periods of time where I've stopped playing Dota because of other commitments and real life, but this is the first time where I have plenty of spare time to play, but I don't want to.
Do I take some retard-proof hero into the offlane every game?

Dota isn't game to have fun.
if you want to raise in MMR you migh as well consider yourself amateur player where you count your "fun" by how much MMR you got
>>165837995
>screencapping your own "jokes"

>>165837373
I noticed I have like 450 more games on Dire for some reason, around 54% wr Dire and 60% for Radiants

men are nasty and generally just awful human beings to exist near, so it's a huge surprise that women don't feel it necessary to shit all over them constantly. you're mistaking their lack of desire or interest for a lack of innate skill. idiot. yall all have thumbs and shit do you sincerely think you're better at pressing keys on a keyboard?

as a mid necro should i have been warding for my team. i'm asking sincerely, would i have won if i bought and placed wards instead of farming up all my items?
I hate -mmr

low priority when
>>165843874
give her up
she's treants bitch now, she just gon have to deal with it
>>165843912
No you shouldn't be the one warding.
But if your the team are such jews and since the vision game is so fucking important, you buy the fucking wards, drop them in base and demand one of the cunts to ward. And if they don't, you "threaten to quit" because you're carrying the team and they are only in the game because of you.
>>165844071
oh thank fuck
someone else gets to listen to her bullshit about fitness now
>>165844169
dropping the wards is smart, but i think telling people i'm carrying them and they're only in it because of me would be more damaging than anything.
>when you're the support teammed with a 4 stack of circlejerking retards, thus everything is your fault and any minor mistake is backed up by 4 east-euro mongols yelling at you
Oh, I'm SOoOo sorry I forgot to save up for the courier wings at 9, I was busy stacking camps, pulling for the safelane, warding, and ganking your mid, you incompetent shitsop.
>>165843874
a tree stole your gf
a tree
>>165844281
Sure it was an exaggerated example but you get the point and your team should get the point on how important it is to ward.
Given your farm, you def could have afforded buying the wards.

i belive in you
Honestly guys, replacing Battefury with Domi on AM has been a better experience for me so far.
I can farm and fight in early to mid game rather fine than when I tried fighting with battlefury on.
I say this is the best version of domi so far.
>>165846764
literally gooddrums
>>165846725
yeah I pasted that but it was my first run at cleaning it
this is the first attempt but I don't like the edges being so nasty
>>165838392
genuinely no, you have no carry to keep alive in hopes of him winning, and you can't really murder the whole enemy team with necro
you probably played a good necro game, but if you wanna solo carry the game, for whatever reason, you need different heroes
>>165846808
ill cheer for you

Don't believe peoples lies. Account buyers also have a 50% winrate because of forced 50

Team didn't need to booga, but if i tilted less it could have gone better.

i built defensively because I was stomping and all 4 of my teammates were doing really badly. all they would do was teamfight even tho they were behind. if they aren't going to farm, i have to find a way to get them to win the teamfights. that was my philosophy anyways, i don't think you can win a game solo. dota is a 5 man game.
>>165855945
plenty pros have close to 60-70% winrate, depending on how often they play in stacks
maybe you shouldnt conjure neurons based on one random d2g post

keep in mind alot of pros use smurfs/dont share their data so dotabuff can track them
>>165838392
That sniper had like 1500 HP, the right build was blink eth. blade dagon.
You built yourself to survive the enenmy and get teammates through the enemy's magic burst which is a defensive strategy, hardly what a core needs to do. Pubs are 2v2 or 1v1, with 2 good players on each side, you have to take out those players first (exception if there is a dazzle omni etc)
Anyway, your draft also fucking scuked balls, you have slardar and literally 0 right clicking hero.
However, their draft is perfect, sniper and a bunch of run at you heroes to distract you.
If I played mid this game and I have a slardar and a sniper vs me, I would have picked PA or SF or storm, If I was safe I would have picked lifestealer for slardar drush bombs on sniper.

>>165856894
rtz dendi and miracle hardly ever play in stacks, s4 and bulldog does it all the time
also, if you climb to 8,5-9k mmr and stay there over an extended period of time, your winrate graph will be increasing on your way up there, but then it will slowly gravitate towards 50%, but never go too close to it/below it unless you derank MASSIVELY
not to mention rtz often first pick spams heroes he wants to learn and often loses plenty games
come on guys, interpreting numbers like this is fucking high school level stuff, dont make me spoon feed you like this its embarrassing

Lone Druid Bear, but the build is shitter than Radiance or Hero, so you'd only build if it you were losing hard I guess and already talented for bear.
Might be okay on Wraith King.
Thats literally it.
Drow won't buy it since she can't Frost Arrow though it, which is kinda important, similar for Sniper and being able to Shrapnel is really useful at most stages.
If it was a 5 or 6 seconds silence it would probably be decent on quite a lot more heroes, Void comes straight to mind.

patch notes/proof
as far as i know spamming attack click works since it'll target a visible target- ie the mine. of course attack clicking to an obvious area won't hit the mine since it's invisible until you come in range.
>>165870614
Yeah, about 5 days ago they patched it. It was apparently intended to work this way to begin with.
>- Fixed a bug which allowed Techies' Mines to be auto attacked without being clicked upon.
Now you can't kill them without clicking them. This includes creep waves and towers, so they won't instakill your mines anymore unless they're player-controlled.

I can relate to this. I'm a 2k shitter who likes playing all the heroes. Finally buckled down adn started spamming chaos knight, invoker, meepo, pudge, undying and nyx in respective lanes and climbed to 2.9k. Only difference as i'm climbing is people actually counter pick and know how to rotate.
Is the double-click keybind to self-use items/abilites option sub-optimal? I see a lot of pros using salves by doing item hotkey+left clicking themselves rather than double pressing the item hotkey.
I don't think you can have each ability set up differently, right? e.g. double pressing dazzle heal heals self, but grave requires a left click on self

I went from 1.5k to 2.6k and all I do is play support some games, or even random, I really don't care much about my pick.
It's all about being competent and not doing dumb shit, and also having a thick skin: You won't win all games and you will lose some games when you are playing good, and after some time you start playing better and having better decision making.
I'm not saying I'm good, but it's not like you can pick a carry or a "free mmr" hero and get to your desired mmr, because more often than not you have to fill the sacrificial roles in your team, since everyone wants to play carry and get a rampage at this mmr. If you can be marginally smarter (not even better) than the rest, you will climb.

what's the highest unranked mmr? If you win alot in unranked, what does your estimated mmr become on opendota? Can it go higher than 3.7k?
What if, an ability like this:
Gain 5 charges of extra damage. Each time you deal less than 200 damage with an attack, you lose 1 charge. A charge is restored every 3 seconds.
Damage per charge: 3/6/9/18
>>165874321
I've had 55% winrate over the course of 2 years and I'm around 3,5k
>>165874321
Yes. I have 4.1k MMR in unranked, I have barely touched ranked.
Mostly because I say fuck the meta, and fuck warding in particular. I accidentally misclicked on sentries a few days ago and now my record is permanently stained with having bought them, when before I had 0 vision/0 sentry for as long as dota 2 has been out.
>>165872751
the worst you can do at low MMR is picking a lane bitch support because "AM I NOT MORE CLEVER THAN THOSE FAGS WITH THEIR CARRIES U GUIZE" and accomplish nothing other than stand there sapping XP and dumping all your net worth in wards you'll put in stupid positions

Heroes like slark, earth spirit, storm spirit, nigger king, these are heroes that can carry entire games because of how completely broken they are at low MMRs.

p gud, blast off damage isn't as good as his old suicide but the range and low cooldown allow him to choose between roaming fulltime or being a mine-laying autist fulltime. i also like the changes to stasis trap as well but i still wouldn't skill it early unless my team lacked any disable
>>165871138
well assuming base magic resistance sun ray now deals slightly more damage than it did before, and since it's magic damage it can be amplified or weakened. competent players will realize this and counterpick accordingly, so it's probably better just to lastpick her in games where the enemy lack a natural pipe carrier and cores with magic resistance talents

Also, I'm concious of lane XP, but I can't leave an Slark alone until his lvl 6 if we are vs a dual.
I try to go for things like CM, Disruptor, Warlock or Sky. I try to do some early pulls and secure runes so I can at least get some early points for ganks.

Can't tell for sure from just dotabuff.
I'd have to watch you play to make sure, but I'm willing to bet that its a combination of awareness, ability to position, and reaction times. Its not just one thing.
Also carrying in pubs is a fools errand unless you pick a hero that doesn't need the rest of the team to not be retarded for it to work. This is why slark and bloodcyka are the most popular mmr climbing heroes.
If they have a jungler though, there is literally nothing more effective than going treant and dicking with him in his pve sandbox.

Whenever you queue it's just a roll of the dice, not much skill involved that determines whether or not you win a game these days, all about what rng you draw as for players on your team.
>>165881193
Nobody?
>>165881565
1 out of 10 times you decide the game. One out of ten. 9 out of 10 times it's someone else in the game that decides it. Not only that but in order to actually climb, you have to also carry a game that someone else decides, who would lose it for you. If you fuck that up your past 9 games were wasted. This game was the one that decided whether you move that 25mmr upwards or downwards. Good luck after 9 games again

>>165887032
Saying that mechanical skill isn't the only factor that determines the better team is right. What your quote seems to be saying is that mechanical skill doesn't matter, which is absolutely stupid, but maybe he's bad at writing and meant the former.
Also, I thought LoL players were complaining about how the skill ceiling on mechanical skill has lowered significantly? (not that it was very high in the first place but w/e)

Ya, I understand that but the person doesn't get that you need to be at a certain skill level before you are able to utilize the improvements as a team you have made over your opponents.
Riot has mostly just nerfed stuff into balance and made it so that it is egregious for you to die to your lane opponent. I also think it is partially just because inevitably the western teams would get good at laning, they just still suck at all the moments past that.

You'd honestly think 7.00 would bring the biggest rise ever in Dota but it only accomplished the exact opposite. It's actually quite crazy.
It's hard to imagine people still playing Dota 5-10 years down the road.
>>165888468
7.00 was the straw that broke the camels back. a lot of players have not been liking the direction dota has been going in for a long time but they still played because its hard to break a nearly decade old habit of booting up the game and playing every day. 7.00 was just the nail in the coffin since they changed the game so drastically in a bad way

>Can you even define and make 'farm distribution' meaningful besides position 1 just having lots of gold?
Yeah, a lot of teams used to have trouble dividing the gold on the map between key heroes. Funnily enough eternal envy was one of the best players to do this. It wasn't just position one and two; which support goes for what and how do you prioritize your offlane were huge deals. Now all of that seems pretty trivial
>Gold is still scarce early.
It really isn't with bounties in every hole imaginable, iron talon, shrines, 50gold tp (it used to cost fucking 135 gold jesus christ) among other things
>Stacks still exist.
They're a lot let meaningful than they used to be

>>165892423

>>165892423
try playing anti-mage. You'll quickly realize how much shrines alone killed any kind of farming and split-pushing potential. Positioning map-wise means so little these days it's not even funny. They also made offlane completely trivial, coupled with already cancerous iron talon. Fuck I hate shrines so much
Either you brawl or you play some other game. There's no other viable strategy
>>165892715
When i get a game like this it ends up being a seventy minute game. eventually someone grows balls and just runs down middle and who ever wins that team fight takes the dub, alternatively it turns into a base race- if they're pushing top while we have racks down and their mid racks are down, we just fucking book it down middle lane.

he said be played dota but looking at the state of the game im almost 100% certain thats a lie
>>165895150
Yea, that his cock tastes fantastic
>>165895150
It happened on reddit; take a fucking guess, dude.
>>165895150
Icefrog is dead and Valve has been balancing the game since 6.82
How do you even deal with catapults in the SF challenge? They just stay there and never kill each other because their aggro order is range creep > melee > siege
So I keep having catapults across several rounds. Pls help.
>>165896027
right click them
>>165896027
Lucky attack rolls and auto attack them in the downtime between creep waves.
>>165896027
gabe said they're removing sf next patch, so you may as well give up and learn to last hit as someone else
>>165896027
i want to spank her!

Do you guys just reply to that guy simply because you're just that bored of dota or is there some inside gulag joke I'm not aware of?
>>165896463
gulag is dead and I have the freedom to throw my meager frog collection around as I please thank you very much
>>165896463
Did you forget to take your pills because you are just that bored of being normal or is there some tendies embargo I'm not aware of?
>>165896558
I wasn't complaining. It's a nice collection by the way.
>>165896572
Don't worry I keep up with my pills
>>165896686
thanks, I find real frogs to be less autistic and cuter than the old drawn frog we all know and appreciate, wish there were more

I had a 600+ cs game today on void and a near 1000 cs game last week on antimage
Guys this is serious business, don't reply to me if you're just "bored" or "dota is dead"
It's a real problem of how to get rid of catapults when doing the SF challenge. There are pesky pesky units. They hit like 1.5 the damage of ranged creeps and have a shit ass BAT so you have not only keep track of how many X melee creeps are hitting Y enemy melee creeps, and the who the ranged creeps are hitting seperately and try to prioritize killing X unit ove rdenying Y unit and add on top tha tthe fucking catapults with their shit projectile and shjit BAT and OP damage.

A PSA to all the people who are in LP due to valid reports.
People have been crying and moaning lately because of the recent pro players that have been put in LP due to reports.
If you were put in LP due to being toxic/leaving games then you deserve everything you get.
Your teammates abandon 50 mins into a game and your lp win doesn't count? Your fault for abandoning a team of good players who want to play DoTA.
Your team flames and feeds every game? Your fault for doing the same to legit players.
That NP tps and dies as much as possible? Your fault for feeding in your game.
Seriously get over yourself. Just because pro players are constantly being put in lp due to targeted reports that doesn't mean the same is happening to you. In your bracket its very unlikely you will encounter the same player twice or get targeted reports. Getting reported 4 times in one game wont put you in LP you need to be reported in several of your games. Stop being an asshole and you wont be in LP and stop making excuses like you are entitled to ruin as many games as you want.
RIP my karma I will take the downvotes from all the mad kids in lp.

Nah this is when they "promote" you off the team to some bullshit position. You're still on the payroll, you're still signing all the new ndas, but you don't actually do a fucking thing.

yea this is balanced alright

I find it hard to find fault in myself in the early part of the game but as the game gets later there's a lot more flaws I shouldn't do as a carry.

>dont hurt the oogas feelings when you play dota or they might booga
if my teammates are low prio trash in my regular prio games i will shit all over them and i won't even feel bad. i ragequit and abandon games when my teammates feed and don't know how to play, and i don't feel bad about it at all. i'll play a low prio here or there any day rather than turn into a redditor.
