Can an iceturd give an Undying a real fucking ultimate for a change? Currently a fucking necro is a better and more survivable offlane that also goes godly into a late game. All udying can do is try to dominate early game by building decay stacks, but necro can do literally same aka running into people but unlike undying necro can fucking slow people through bkb, has infinite regen and surprise burst if you can't zone him out and good luck doing it vs necro with shrine.

I wonder how long it will take for it to be discovered big name teams use honey pot lans as easy money by having bets placed against themselves through a third party, throwing, and earning more money than if they had won.
I'm sure I'll be called delusional and a fan boy and what not, but you should look at some of the drafts that happen during these lower cash tournaments between majors by big teams that just seem to go full retard once they are in the top five/3.
It's not as if even an audit by the government would find that kind of shit, export income is a fucking nightmare to audit as is with donations, stream income, tournaments, sponsorships, etc etc. It's really easy to slip some shady shit into that revenue stream.
>>172995512

or they just use smaller tournaments as a venue for trying some of their sillier strategies because if they fail they do not lose the thing they have been practicing the entire year to place first in
ergo you're a fucking retard and should consider sudoku lest your genes find themselves in the gene pool
>evil geniuses
>>172995605
except that there are systems in place to stop exactly that and that's why 322 exists you stupid fucking newfag, get the fuck out

Like what? Unless you are completely fucking retarded like those fucking jungle monkeys it would be relatively easy to have a third party ding bets for you as long as you trust them.
Also aleksy was a fucking moron and made it blatantly obvious what was going on

It would be players doing it without owner knowledge. As long as you place high enough what's the owner going to cry about other than better luck next time while spends his stream/winnings/sponsor cut on blow and hookers.

I dislike this one The simple original Laguna blade is still better. Reminds me of Avatar. Some firebenders could separate yin and yang from energy to create a lightning bolt, pretty sure whoever made lina was a Avatar fan and kept the lightning that way instead of changing it to appear more like Lina Inverse's spell form the anime (Slayers).

Ice Blast does indeed work against Oracle Ult
>>173006068
My vote is for Ice Vortex, most boring ability in the game.
be honest, would anyone here actually be mad if Burning beat OG in the finals?
>>173005954

AA needs a complete overhaul.
>>173005954
you cannot pick a hero who's only useful ability is his ult
also you would have to pick him early, and they can just not go alch and pick another bullshit hero

Yeah that hero is getting banned every game from now on

>carry with built in ultra midas with no CD
>>173006138

Only thing he needs is for his ult to have a single consistent AOE

>>173006138
Make it an actual vortex
Like enemies are slowly pushed towards the centre
Like how Black Hole used to do, but obviously without any sort of stun.
Chilling Touch needs to be reworked, imo
It just feels so shitty.
Anyone love watching every caster and analyst discussing the game without trying to mention how broken Alch/Naga/MK/LIna are despite the fact if they said so they wouldnt need to analyze anything

Ahh cool, I'm a sucker for water based heroes. It will probably be eitehr strength or intelligence
Let's fix AA guys. We're all 9K here. So we know best
Cold Feed is unique enough that it should stay the same.
Ice Vortex is boring as shit, but very useful. Maybe make it do something with healing too? Like damage taken on a Vortex heals AA, regardless of source? Or maybe gives back mana?
Chilling Touch feels like shit. The AS slow hurts so much early game that it feels like such a waste. How about enemies hit by Chilling Touch lose MS if they're moving away from AA but not when they move towards AA? Neat synergy with Cold Feet

>>173007615
Meta stun abilities are either: instant or aoe
Even Sven had his storm hammer changed from single target to aoe. Cold Feet is a single target delayed stun which isn't even long, and almost impossible to get in the age of force staff/hurricane pike
Even WK's stun has a staggered slow effect. But AA's cold feet, nothing's really changed since its release in war3 dota.
And he suffers just like Broodmother. Game changes, map changes, items get introduced which directly counter them yet the hero doesn't change and winrate tanks.

Considering dondo has 750 thousand dollars and sumail is sitting on 2 million, yeah, I'd say they are more successful though old Navi has better prestige. Sucks to have been relevant before you could cash winning that sweet meme cash and abuse Adderall for an extra million dollars.

Based on what exactly, heroes like Invoker and other heroes who have medium to long cooldowns benefit tremendously from it, not just only support heroes,despite it being difficult for them to achieve the gold
But also, the fact that the item is so expensive is exactly its purpose. It's not supposed to be bought regularly, but if you have the necessary funds or if the moment calls for you, you can get the item. You would have a point if it was cheaper but its not. If it was regularly available then we'd be encroaching every cast heavy hero to have that item.
This just somewhat assists them in being not useless sacks of shits only useful for their ultimate at very high levels.
How to ACTUALLY fix AA:
Cold feet is now global
Ice Vortex is now global
Chilling Touch is now global
Ice Blast is now limited to 5000 range.

When you die what good is your money? Your reputation is immortal.
Jews and chinks will never understand glory.
>>173007852
if AA had an instant or aoe stun he would be picked or banned literally every game

but thats wrong u cuck
money is completely random whilst prestige is ever present and clear as fuck
saying X team is better than a team like navi historically based on a single win with a high shekel count is the peak of retardation
>>173008064
nah, it would be OP against forcestaff and punce and leash and all that, and fucking shit against anything else

Cold feet needs to be longer, that's it.
Ice Vortex is fine.
Chilling Touch needs a straigh buff.
Ice Blast needs to be nerfed with other aspects of the hero buffed. For too long that's been the only great thing about him, and it's situational.

Well obviously the details of the spell would be changed.
It goes back and forth. Items counter heroes and some heroes counter items
It's ok for one hero to completely shit on Force.
It should happen
>>173008484
don't nerf forcestaff, buff counters to it, that's how dota has and should be balanced.

>>173008589
>It's ok for one hero to completely shit on Force.

one one hand I see your point
one the other, how the fuck do you balance such a spell without making it useless 50% of the time and full blown OP the other 50%?
>>173008510
its fucking simple
one is a higher (constant) and valid tier of measurement whilst the other - money - is subject to multiple factors that are completely irrelevant
>>173008510
>>173008636
TI1 featured plays and farming on par with a 3K game now.
TI2 featured plays and farming on par with a 4K game now.
This was when 300 GPM was "good" and 400 GPM was gamewinning.
>>173008341
He's right though, this entire game is competitive dota. We just patchtest for the 2 majors and TI throughout the year, and we funnel money into battlepasses since we invest time into the game.
Why do you think Valve is so ready to listen to reddit? Can't have unhappy customers.
>>173008461
You can get a lot of money if you give them an inlet to send you the cash. Sponsors, T-shirts, gaming seats, you buy these with the codename "Arteezy" and it creates a feedback loop where your sponsors give you more money.
Let's back it up glory and honor fuckers, the original discussion was about OG. Who gives a shit how many no name tournaments they have won. Win a TI or shut your fucken mouth.

>>173008735
Not the guy you're replying to but I'll play Devil's Advocate.
This concept already exists on Nyx, he's a bad pick, except when he isn't.
I'm at a barely above average skill level, no doubt, but I've won my last 12 Nyx games by only picking him into games with shitloads of int cores.
I'm not remotely good at the hero either. I miss half my stuns. Still have a 12 winstreak on him, and the games I pick him in are IZI.
>>173008373

>>173008775
>HURRR DUH GPM WAS LESS
it's almost like they buffed passive gold rate a few years back, and then further with talents, it's almost like there's 4 bounty runes
it's almost like there's more farm on the map and easier to get thanks to items like iron talon
it's almost like you're a fucking retard
>>173008859
I would buy a gaming seat if I had the money.
Either way, it's people being very free with their money. I think the Secret jerseys were 60-80 dollars. That could feed someone for 10 days, and not in some third world country where food is cheap.
Razer mouse, AMD video cards, 400 dollar gaming chairs are an investment only kids or trustfund babies would spend money on since they don't have to pay rent or pay for their own food, or don't have a college debt they want to worry about right now.
>>173009054
when's the last time icefrog removed an item
>>173009056
TI 1 winners are second class citizens.
>>173008775
GPM was less because it was actually harder to farm back then without built in noob farming items and mechanics in the game.
You're fucking stupid, tournaments back then besides the ones where the game wasnt widely available were just as competitive.
>>173008931
no prob m9y
>>173009025
It's like people forgot that awful part of this game's history where BurNing and Illidan just took Anti-Mage into the woods, hit 600 GPM (unheard of at the time), and then just won 1 fight and took base.
>>173009025
It always the same damage
what you meant was the radius
>>173009056
>All ti winners are on the same level
Kek.
>>173009025
That was literally only because chink teams would agree to play that way because they were autistic and loved farming.
If it was china vs CIS it was a lot different, the varied styles clashing was hype as fuck
Feels like all the teams play the same nowadays.
LINA

>>173009260
I miss the old CIS/China match-ups. China right now is very average and CIS has one team which is decent but can't make it to tourneys. I'm tired of seeing OG/EG just trailblaze through everything, the games are all the same.
>>173009260
Chink teams still gravitate towards farm.
>>173009260
nah, chinks knew it was the best way to play even if they lost, the fault was their execution.
you can see it the entire meta, farming like a retard is the best in every mmr. it's been the meta for years except if one team executes it poorly
>>173009260
China invented farming. Burning was the first player to actually try to last hit creeps.Before that everyone just auto-attacked the lane to push.
>>173009176
>>173009094
How does it feel to be this wrong?
>bounty rune nerfed
>jungle has less farm then ever
>no mention of memeback gold
>implying mechanics like seeing spawn boxes benefits pros who had those boxes memorized
>noob farming mechanics
Never mind that this is an agreed upon phenomenon at the pro level that players, casters, and analysts all talk about.
Please refrain from posting here if you didn't live through the era of passive jungling horseshit pro-meta. No one cares about your personal transition from some patch in 2016's introduction of Iron Talon making ur "Epic Jungle Legion" EZ 4 NOOBZ.
If you think the level of competitive play of an esport doesn't go up over time, you can't into simple human logic.
>>173009537
>doubt
>>173009537
>invented farming
what, no, for china maybe but not us
>>173009260
Any strat not based around farming is a meme strat. It's the most "solid" way to play DOTA 2 and how to be consistently good. Meme teams riding on broken mechanics don't last long.
You can see why some players in the chinese scene have stayed relevant for a long time for a reason. It's how the game is designed, farming like an autist. Icefrog likes it this way except a few times where he accidentally made it not feasible.
>>173009537
wtf i love burning now
Why did Jugg get to be such a popular pick nowadays? I don't really understand, he is easily kited and his blade fury doesn't really do that much damage after 10 mins.
Is he just picked for his ult and healing ward for push? He just seems like a really simple right-click carry. Why build manta on him?
>>173009570
Remember when Lycan was stupid overpowered and a pubstompers dream?
Good times.
>>173009537
This.
People seem to forget this shit. When people started denying creeps, they were called out on it, and people questioned the relevance of denying for a long time.
Dota is a lot like 4chan. Whenever you started playing it in is defacto the "Good Old Days".
all this oldschool dota talk reminds me of that one SEA dude that farmed a sacred relic, got courier sniped (back then the item on corier dropped), and he just farmed a new one and they won anyways
don't remember the name but I think he was playing PL or medusa idk..
i follow esports very loosely, was there ever any point that someone just freaked out in a game and kept trying to gg/feed/just lost their shit (like in all chat or something)? i'd imagine not because it'd be stupid to throw away being in a pro team but you cant doubt the potency of spergouts
>>173009645
Good at all parts of the game
Reliable "escape" with spin.
Other carries can die more and are weaker at different parts of the game
remember me /v/
I was almost in every single match during tournaments
Now I don't even exist anymore, until I get rediscovered by clever teams
>>173009645
Are you 1K?
>built in magic immune ability/escape tool
>built in farming tool
>built in healing tool
>ulti lets you do mass damage and be immune to all damage fucking up enemy initations.
>>173009645
> he is easily kited
True, but he does what he should do with omni anyways
> his blade fury doesn't really do that much damage after 10 mins.
What kind of meme statement is this?
> he just picked for his ult and healing ward for push?
Beecause he pushes good, because he's a safe pick, and because he does good damage.
>Why build manta on him?
Dispell silences
its not that hes strong, he's just a safe pick
>>173009537
>do not get gold from last hitting
>get gold when you do
really.... people could not figure this out? This is an integral part of the game wtf
>>173009645
jugg is the most flexible carry right now because pretty much all carry items are viable for him
has a free semi bkb, a sustain skill, a crit and a bursting ult, pretty good
manta is for disjointing/dispelling, split pushing and mind games
People keep saying that the respawn time reduction is why Lina is so good. But she's raping this game and hasn't died once.
Does anyone have any idea about the popularity of various teams/players in China?
>>173009785
some semi-pro has probably done in some bottom-tier trash tournament that no one's watched
>>173009645
how can he be easily kited exactly? he has magic immune and he can build SB or blink with phase boots. then he is a diffusal carrier so he cant be kited. also he has an ulti that is unavoidable
>>173009645
Void and Jugg are popular because they have more options than other carries and have objectively good last hitting (harder to deny on) for a safelane carry.
Void and Jugg also have escapes that let you rotate them into the offlane.
>Why build manta
The better question is why not. You build manta on every agility hero that it makes sense for. On heros with amazing stat growth, or diffusal buyers illusions are great. Jugg's illusions CAN CRIT. But mainly, heroes like jugg buy it for the dispel, which allows you to purge slows and silences so you can spin.
>>173010040
EG & Sumail are the most popular.
>>173009785
A 15 year old kid just dropped his items and ragequit in the SA Kiev qualifiers a few weeks ago

It's obviously going to be an IG vs OG final
Who wins?
Soulless Jew vs Soulless Chink
>eg lost to this
>eg lost to this
I really need one reason as to why teams still fall for the core Venge meme.
I haven't seen her win one game.
>>173010232
Much like in every past final, OG will just shitstomp them in the first two games, the script says the other team gets at least one win, and then OG goes back to rolling them
>>173010127
Sorry dude everything in this comment is very wrong
>>173009785
Two pro games have been lost because the team who was winning typed a bad manner GG in all chat and accidentally called a forfeit.
iirc sumail was involved.
At the China vs World DAC show match yesterday, SCCC told EE to FUCK OFF in all caps all chat after EE ruined his chrono.
>>173009987
I hate the bloodstone build honestly, if you finish it and your team gets its shit pushed in suddenly you wasted a sizeable amount of gold instead of getting a control item like euls force blink or even a fucking atos. The talent needs to be removed.
>>173010295
>I really need one reason as to why teams still fall for the core Venge meme.
Only CIS teams can pull this off

Go look up the 2009 Dota 1 scene. All of those Chinese Teams are still popular, and also Newbee because they won TI.

To be fair, the LoL mechanics aren't as deep as Dota's and the visual indicators and graphics in the game are pretty straight forward.
You don't want to confuse the casuals or the girls who tune in to watch Faker to realize the depth of the competitive meta or else the game will become majorly unfun and "toxic" when they log in themselves.

>Sumail first started playing Dota when he was eight years old. Upon his arrival to America he began playing in the North American Elite League. Sumail quickly became the highest rated player in the in-house league, establishing himself as one of the best upcoming talents in the North American scene. His play was so impressive that UNiVeRsE pushed for EG to recruit him in January of 2015. Sumail's LAN debut was at the Dota 2 League Season 5 finals in Las Vegas on January 6th 2015. The team performed poorly at the event, in part to lack luster performance by Sumail. Critics began to question whether he deserved a roster spot on a team like Evil Geniuses.
>In February, Sumail would get a chance to redeem himself as EG participated in the Dota 2 Asia Championships. In his first match of the tournament, Sumail introduced his Euls Scepter of Divinity Shadow Fiend build, which would quickly become part of the meta for the tournament. EG's captain ppd entered the tournament with a focus on drafting around Sumail, in order to ensure he was comfortable in game. This proved to be quite successful as EG found themselves in the top 4, with an 11-4 record, after the group stage. EG stormed through the upper bracket beating Na'Vi and Big God, but were soundly defeated 2-0 by VG in the upper bracket finals. After a 2-0 victory over the tournament favorite Team Secret in the lower bracket finals, EG had a rematch with VG in the finals. In the finals Sumail established himself as one of the best mid players in the world with his stellar play.

Sumail's breakout performance at DAC led to widespread recognition as a young prodigy in both the Chinese and Western Dota scenes, and secured a reputation as one of the best Storm Spirit players in the game.

I'd actually go so far as to say that valve should probably remove 4man parties from unranked like they did in ranked, but then again, its unranked and there is literally nothing worse than unranked.
both ranked and lpq are 100% better because people play to win.
how long till EG plays? They winner of this against EG in the grand final?

That's action packed for a league game.
I've seen league games end like 2-3. You know they don't even have smoke in league?

I couldn't imagine going alone to the international.
I guess being autistic enough to go for the secret shop and the pins while also having 0 interaction other than waving a meme sign is appealing to some people?
