what heroes can I play that soothe my autism

Yo /d2g/ rate my sick balance ideas :

Jakiro
-Level 25 talent reworked
Previous : -50 seconds respawn time
New : Liquid Fire cooldown removed

Queen of Pain
-Sonic Wave cooldown reduced from 135 to 135/100/60
-Reworked Aghanim's Scepter
Upgrades : Shadow Strike
Scepter Shadow Strike now pierces spell immunity
Scepter Shadow Strike now deals additional magic damage per instance equal to 100% of Queen of Pain's Attack stat (equivalent to five basic attacks)

Rubick
-Null Field reworked
No longer provides magic resistance
AoE reduced from 900 to 600
Null Field now reduces enemy spell effects in the AoE by 5/10/15/25%. (All enemy disables, damage over time, buffs and debuffs will last 25% less when cast within the AoE)

For each hero slark kills, his respawn timer the next time he dies is reduced by 10 seconds

>meepo dies somehow bottom
>pings mid
>"gg sf no gank"
>sf gank in 2017
I had 30 cs over tinker, and was still farming up my first major item (sblade)
later, I die. Team decides to push bottom. Already at the enemy tier two by the time I spawn, far as fuck, so I farm top wave. They die to tinker. Again
>gg sf, commend sf
from Meepo
Almost the exact same thing happens later when I tp to deny our top tier 2 tower. Again the pings.

That nigger kept flaming me even though I was top of cs and networth for the entire game after 6 minutes, because his 3man party (who didn't buy bkbs) kept fighting/pushing without me and dying to tinker/slardar. Meepo said "lul, no damage sf", criticizing my build, aquila, silvers edge, hurricane pike, bkb, treads, atm. Could have had demons edge (for mkb) but was saving for buyback (which I later utilized necessarily to defend the base). I was integral to our eventual victory. Meepo was silent.

Why do people blame mid for everything?

Heroes hit by Dark Pact now have the mana cost of their spells increased by an amount equal to the damage taken by Dark Pact. Effect lasts for each individual spell until said spells are cast.
Aghanim's Scepter Upgrade: Mana cost increase continues to stack indefinitely if multiple Dark Pacts hit the same hero.

There we go. Slark is finally viable,

I kinda like the shitty engrish dota memes. They're just surreal enough for me to eagerly await the next one.
Btw are any of /ourguys/ streaming right now?

New Aghanim's Scepter upgrade for Slark: Upon gaining seven essence shift stacks from attacking an enemy hero, Slark's next attack will cause a break effect, disabling any passives that hero has until Slark's essence shift stacks expire. Effect is not removed upon hero's death.

>>172604674
because they think that it's mid's job to take 30 seconds to walk over to their lane at level 3 to gank (translation: save them after they get greedy and die)

>Valve still hasn't discontinued all support for DotA 2, including hosting the game servers
well I'll be...

New Pounce effect: Slark now hamstrings targets caught in addition to leashing them, reducing their movement speed by 84% for 3.5 seconds. Effective at all levels of Pounce.

Get this. Kunkka aghs/lvl25 talent: cooldown on tidebringer removed.

I hate Dota sometimes

shadow dance new aghs: Shadow dance becomes permanent, and slark can click to toggle the ability to temporarily grant the effect of a non-upgraded shadow dance of equivalent level to all allies within 1025 units of Slark. Drains 5 mana per instant while active. Shadow dance effects linger on allies for .5 seconds after leaving the radius.

Necrophos aghs rework: Reaper's Scythe no longer is upgraded by aghs, instead, Heartstopper aura can be activated to make Necrophos channel his powers over pestilence and rot to greatly amplify the effects of Heartstopper aura, rooting Necrophos in place but increasing the potency of Heartstopper aura by 200% for each half second channeled. Can be channeled for 7 seconds, after which, or if interrupted. Heartstopper Aura's activation goes on cooldown for 100 seconds. Radius increased by 450 while channeled. Drains 170 mana per second while channeling.

>>172605585

>>172605587
>>172605314
>>172605169
>>172604954
>>172604517

Could slark finally be viable and find his way into a tournament level team comp if all of these buffs go through?

>>172605850
>accidentally enter a 1350 unit radius around necrophos as he's finishing his channel
>suddenly instantly die despite max life

WOW DUDE

Necrophos new aghs: Can now cast reaper's scythe while dead, allowing necrophos to target any hero on the map. Cooldown reduction of reaper's scythe retained. If the damage dealt by Reaper's Scythe strikes the killing blow, the cooldown of Reaper's Scythe is reset.

>>172605170
I thought mine were pretty good

Slark now heals for the damage taken from Dark Pact if Dark Pact's dispel is successful.

how do I build venomancer hybrid right click/nuke?

upon landing a mortal strike crit, wraith king's attack prevents the target from receiving any form of healing for five seconds. successive mortal strikes do not refresh the debuff duration.

there, now it's a true mortal strike

New ranged hero idea, if a ranged geros projectile goes out of its attack range then it has its damage reduced by 5% for every 20 units

All of winter wyvern's nerfs are reverted. Viable.

New carry heros idea, his auto attacks have like 30 base damage, but he has a passive spell that makes him throw 3 shutikans per auto attack, also give him a reflect ability like lotus orb but it only works from one direction.

New level 25 talent for Lina, replaces -4s dragon slave cd: Laguna blade now bounces instantly between all heroes within a 600 unit radius of the target hit, searching for further heroes within 600 units of additional targets. 725 with cast range talent chosen

there, fixed. now all you need is to rush aghs refresher and get someone like enigma to set up and reap delicious rampages

Successfully randoming Chaos Knight grants you an enhanced version of Chaos Knight which receives a greater stat gain, but the additional stats gained upon leveling are allocated randomly.

each hero killed by pudge's hook permanently increases the range by 100

>>172606501
Whoa sure is 2008 in here

Greevil's Greed now stacks indefinitely, gaining an additional +1 to gold gained per creep killed after reaching the initial maximum

Wall of Replica aghs upgrade is now baseline. Ion Shell is now upgraded by Aghanim's Scepter, allowing the damage to tick four times as fast, quadrupling overall damage dealt.

At level 10, Lina can choose between +80 light strike array damage, or -30s respawn time.

>>172607424
This one's pretty good

Why is this idiot spamming this dead thread with Reddit character rework posts?

>get into game

>pick sb

>go offlane

>2 peruvians pick pa and slark

>they fight over mid

>eventually go dual mid vs necro and lose

>3rd peruvian last picks tinker and goes offlane with me against anti-mage

and the game still lasted 42 fucking minutes, holy hell that was awful

Rework on razors ult:
- If static link is active, ult will hit the same target
- on the 5th strike, either by razor or eye will stun for 1.5 secs

how op is he on mid now?

>>172608187
you fucking idiot look at what you just did, you invited the fucking blogposting cancer
>>172608204

>>172606610
Sounds cool
Also projectiles should fly straight like mirana's arrow. You can evade them with moving out of projectile trajectory.

>>172608221
This just makes him badClockwerk

Damage taken while enraged does not put Ursa's blink dagger on cooldown.

For each stack of fury swipes on a target, Ursa gains 1%/2%/3%/4% additional movement speed.

Visage now has flying vision at night.

Dota is two games.
Around 0-4000 it's hero brawler where people get 5 heroes and they kill creeps and kill each other until one team becomes overwhelmingly powerful and then maybe the game ends.

4000+ is a battle of strategy where people keep benchmarks and hit them, use the map as efficiently as possible as the mmr goes up, item and skill builds change, positioning, what your hero should be doing at what time, showing on the map, hiding in the map, when to group, when to take objectives, etc.

What I'd like to point out though, is the <4000 region where people call each other noobs when they don't see the bigger picture of the game. Dual AM+Sven safelane fed the solo offlane?
Noob. Report. Fucking Peruvians.

In the end, everyone's actually so retarded in this game and I've given up caring about it anymore. I want to play for fun lately but making friends and stacking with them increases the competitiveness so much more.

Think I'll just start a garden or something.

>>172607948
30 seconds at level 10?
Shadow shaman gets 30 seconds at level 20. No one will ever take the LSA damage.

At level 25, Monkey King's mischief ability may turn him into a divine rapier.

Level 25 magnus talent: revers polarity swaps radiant and dire bases

New alchemist ability leveled in conjunction with acid spray: Can now poison healing salves for use on enemy heroes. Effect is 35%/60%/85%/110% of salve heal amount per level.

>>172608221
now that mk has 300 range melee attacks, they need to make razor a melee hero, maybe give him slight nerfs, but i think that would put him in a good place

>>172608456

DOES ANYBODY HERE PLAY BATRIDER OR AT LEAST KNOW THEIR SHIT ON OFFLANE PULLING
how often do you go for an offlane pull?
where do you prefer to pull the creeps? (take them to your tower to clear it out or take them around your tower to deny the 2nd wave?)
if youre on batrider do you use firefly to wrap around the trees before the game starts to ward and get a good position or is that not worth it?

io's tether can once again clothesline the enemy, with stun length increased or reduced based on movement speed of both io and the tethered target.

don't forget to invite centaur over to the party!

>>172609169
Honestly I just snatch their big stacks with firefly. It's free money and if you firefly the wave you're going to push it anyway. Just get huge and fast blink.
I'd advise against play Batrider in shrine-Dota though. You get punished so hard for enemies being out of position.

Elder Titan's ultimate now behaves similarly to max stack requiem of souls

Doomed targets are now truly doomed. Any attempts made to deny the afflicted hero once their hp has reached 25% will cause the attacking hero to be disarmed for 6.66 seconds. All attempts to heal or otherwise absorb or prevent the damage of Doom are blocked. There is nothing they can do while Doom is alive and nearby. Any additional damage dealt by Doom himself while the target is at or below 25% health and still under the effects of Doom will be instantly killed. All heroes which made a failed attempt to deny the afflicted hero will also be doomed if they are still disarmed and nearby when the doomed target dies. Everyone is fucked.

You are bloodseeker. Your ally has just been dueled by Legion commander, who has blinked in and popped blademail. Who your ally is, is irrelevant, but it looks like they're going to die to her if you do not intervene in some way.

Who do you cast bloodrage on? Yourself, your ally, or the legion commander? Unfortunately, bloodrite will be off cd and do damage too late to matter, and your own health isn't very high after an earlier teamfight which the legion commander has survived and healed up from.

respawn time talents have to go down the drain and add minimum 10 seconds respawn time to all heroes at every level

If I place a sentry enemy obs sometimes take like 2-3 seconds to appear. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me having brain problems>

>>172622461
You have fps problems

I love how Monkey King is literally and unironically a better version of Earthshaker.

Boundless Strike is a way better Fissure which is actually easier to use because of its lower cast point and inability to accidentally block off teammates. Not to mention it scales ludicrously and can oneshot some heroes lategame.

Tree Dance and Primal Spring are literally a superior version of Shaker's aghs, not to mention more versatile.

Jingu is ludicrously better than Enchant Totem, and also strongly synergizes with Boundless Strike.

Wukong's Command is literally a risk free Echo Slam.

I can't help but wonder if this was accidental or deliberate. Could Valve really be this dumb? ES might as well not exist anymore.

why can't we have that every time u die your respawn time increases a bit?

people should be punished for dying carelessly or just feeding

but pepe also is anime

I have almost 6,000 hours logged in Dota 2 and would love to keep playing, but I can't.

I'll get straight to the point. I am not a psychologist. I am not a babysitter either. I am a 24 year old man who wants to enjoy his favorite game, meeting friendly people, fighting for a common goal. Sometimes we succeed, sometimes we fail. At the end of the day, it's all good fun. This is where the tired bit comes in from the title. I'm tired of having to be someones emotional target. I'm tired of being the backbone for an angry team. I'm tired of the fact that this is OK.

I have a perfect behavior score. I've had that score for years and I'm tired. The emotionally unstable and angry people who ruin this game for the diehard fans who have invested so much time and money into the game they love seem to always get away without any consequences. Getting a few low prio games is a consequence of being a bad person to your fellow players. There is no consequence for going above and beyond that and being a consistently horrible person.

I will not be spending any more money on this game. I will not be playing this game without being invited on by my friends. I am tired of the way this game allows me to be treated and unless there is a concerted and communicated effort by Valve, I will not be returning.

invoker looks interesting
is he hard to play? from what i've seen the hardest part looks like a small muscle memory barrier, but he looks like he needs a lot of gold and meta knowledge to be played properly, beyond the spells themselves

can anyone point me to a reliable guide that isn't from 4 years ago, or give me a rundown on the guy?

Just download an invoker script.
That way you can use all good spellcombos(and spell) with 1 button. You will also be able to instantly silence/sheep people that blink close to you.

Easy MMR

>>172633248
Anyone that played WoW would do that yes. ALL the zones were completely empty, nobody talked in chat. It was like being in a ghost town, this was also one of the most populated servers mind you.
WoW never had that many players, those 10+m players was mostly chinks,f2p accounts and botters. Actual players playing the west have never been that much.

It isn't an opinion that the game is losing significant players, and thus dying. That is a fact that has objective evidence to back it up.
And ad hominem isn't something you scream when someone hurts your fee-fees, it's attacking the person in lieu of an argument. I already provided mine.

Your lack of basic high school education just goes to show how brain damaged you'd have to be to play this shit in 2017 after the frog himself killed the game.

You attach your phone number to an account. That's all. The same phone number can't be used for multiple accounts.

The theory is is that people can't switch phone numbers as easily as getting a new account. Thus all the people who play on a single account would be matched with others that have linked a phone number to their account. Lose the Boosters/smurfers

>>172641349

Phone numbers would be useless. They should just straight up put a $30 paywall on the Prime Matchmaking. In fact add a fucking monthly subscription on top of that. And don't convert it to fucking 3rd world currencies, they should have to pay the full USD value, not fucking 5 russian rubles or whatever the fuck their shit economy allows.

>A bunch of people use a random shared phone number on the internet for CSGO Prime Matchmaking
>One guy using the public phone number decides to fuck around and use hacks and gets himself VAC banned
>By extension, every other person who used that phone number also gets VAC banned
I'd fucking love prime matchmaking in Dota honestly.

clearly you do not have the ability to understand the english language. there will be no discernible change in the quality of your team mates, especially at 4k, if you add a phone number barrier to it, period. soft region locking would give you a way better difference in quality without longer queue times.

wait are you serious lmao

you cant make a statement like this with any certainty. you are talking out of your ass

Clearly, you weren't here when valve tried that

>>172641637
>you cant make a statement like this with any certainty.
yes i can. trading items requires a mobile phone and thirdies still spend all day every day trading items (and accounts).

the majority of poor teammates dont com from a difference of having a phone and not having a phone, lol. its a ridiculous assertion. the majority comes from cultural differences, language differences, etc.

>>172641737
>Clearly, you weren't here when valve tried that
what? everyone loved it, even reddit did. then they reverted it a few days later because eurofags were getting "diverse teammates" because faggot valve did it by geographic distance which is retarded, probably in an attempt to avoid reddit calling them racist

literally who are you

>yes i can. trading items requires a mobile phone and thirdies still spend all day every day trading items

more assumptions

barrier > no barrier

chew on that

>>172642264
You literally are retarded if you do not think there will be a change in teammates. Every game people play with at least 1 person who doesn't belong at that bracket, and it's obvious. Not even looking at the skill they play in the game, They have a low level dota 2 account, and a profile with 70 hours on Dota 2, their only steam game, or they haven't set up their steam account at all.

>>172642831
what if

What about $200

Apparently my Steam account is worth $3908, so you're not getting rid of me that easily.
Although it would get rid of most of my countrymen, which I would greatly enjoy.

>tfw your first game of the day goes so poorly it completely kills your motivation to play dota and you exit out
How do people manage to queue up again after having an absolutely god-awful game? I can't bring myself to do it.
