has there been any good dota documentaries since true sight episode 3?

what do you do when someone just never comes with your team to fight? i usually end up following them around and fighting on their terms but they always pick bad engagements. what do you do?

I've been out of the loop for a long time, why does everyone hate puppey now?

>>175053014

because he's /d2g/ while envy is /reddit/

>>175053014
Wrong, we've gone full circle and like Puppey again. If you were out of the loop you'd hate Puppey and ask why people like him again after all he did, you're just a newfag who needs to lurk moar.

Whenever I play Storm I think about his post-TI5 nerf. I just absolutely destroyed a game as him, and I'm just imagining how broken he must have been before the ult mana nerf.

Would jakiro be viable if macropyre was actually useful in any way at all?

>>175055798
If you have aghs, you can clear 2 waves of creeps for free when sieging highground, but either way its just used as a push/depush tool anyway and to farm stacked camps early on, its pretty much useless in teamfights

>>175055902
>that'll be 220/330/440 mana plus tip

>>175055798
>>175055902

it's a big area deny spell and combos so easily with anything, even his own stun/slow. you need to drop the ult before the path and DB on top of it. it's the kind of hero with 3 good spells and one "ok" ult, don't expect much changes on macro

>a literal creep has a better ability than jakiro's ult

>>175056190
It's fucking trash and nobody is going to stay in it for more than 2 seconds unless you're in 2k bracket or void is on your team. I'm fairly confident he doesn't get picked in competitive because his ult is trash and makes every other pick better than him because you'd rather have 4 good spells instead of 3.

>>175056335
>instead of 2.

Jakiro isn't picked because one of the HOLY TRINITY is a better Jakiro
As with all unpicked supports

>>175056430
AoE 5 second slow on a 10 second cooldown is pretty decent. The damage isn't bad now either.

>literally resting one fucking day for no reason

Just

>>175056473
>>175056335

In this case, Jakiro is BadKotl. Illuminate functions as a better macropyre for zoning purposes but additionally heals with aghs. It also allows for fast pushing unlike jakiro's passive which requires an autoattack. Mana Leak is better at zoning enemy offlaners
The HOLY TRINITY OF SUPPORTS is absolute

>>175056473
>pudge
>melee with a melee stun

When is Magnus going to be properly nerfed?
He's literally GoodEveryMeleeCarry at this point

>>175056775
Just pick omniknight retard.

>>175056750
>pudge
>goodBatrider at level 2

>>175056430

the only bad thing about DB is the lack of a burst from the two hits it does (frogo removed it in favor of a higher dot) and this killed his middle (harder to get two lasts or last hit + harass breath), but overall the spell is strong

I played a lot of jakiro, he does so much damage without anything (check his hero damage on a even game, it's always crazy) that is understandable that toad is very careful when touching him.

and regarding people running from his ult, well, that's area deny for you, friend. Literally control the ground so people need to take great punishment if they decide to fight inside of it and jakiro has the tools to CC people around it. since the cd is low you can even blow it on single target like npnp, you don't need epic 5 man chrono. someone stuns first, you drop macropyre in a way to hit the guy and force the enemy to retreat/take damage and you follow with icepath.

Jakiro is not in the weak hero list, he's just not as good as the metas top

and fucking shrine

>>175056750
>melee with a melee stun
I_am_only_pretending_to_be_retarded.jpg

Pudge at level 2 is the same threat as a level 7 batrider with force staff AND blink. Can roam endlessly pressuring lanes just by NOT being on the map. Hook functions as a team fight starter/winner and his hp scales in the memefight era to give him easily 3-4k hp, which ever support dreams they could have.

Hook also functions as a teammate saving tool from 1k+ range. It is also hard to find items that aren't amazing on pudge from aether lens to aghs, to blade mail to blink, etc. Not that he needs it. Pudge is "endgame" power as soon as he gets blink.

Pudge is high utility, high ganking/roaming/scaling.
Silencer is high utility, high teamfighting/scaling
KotL is high utility, high lane supporting/sieging

There is no support that isn't outright made obsolete by these three or has to go to outrageous lengths to do better especially at all points in the game

BURNING WILL WIN A VALVE EVENT
CAP THIS OR I'LL CAP YOU

>>175057241
Pursuant to the HOLY TRINITY OF SUPPORTS, potm is BadPudge

PotM needs 4k gold for GoodRadiance, but Pudge already has GoodRadiance. Hook deals large amounts of pure damage unlike arrow which also needs range to deal it. Pudge always gets blink making leap not that good in comparison.

Mirana ult worked much better when you could use it to kill single cores on the enemy team, but doesn't help much when its all you have in the era of 3-4 cores

I haven't played Dota in a year or two(since around the time the new client beta began), and I've been watching some of the Kiev Major games and I'm thinking of getting roped back in.

What's the best way to get back into it? The last patch I payed was 6.86 I think, and since then doto 7 came out, and it has a shit load of changes. Should I just watch purge's autistic 9 hour patch review?

Also, where can I refresh my knowledge of intermediate mechanics like pull timings and camp spawn ranges and what not?

Nah man I think TNC are pretty bad if they can't beat the worst team in the tournament for some reason. And funnily enough it may just happen. The format and seedings drawn are quite justified although I don't agree with single elimination for that matter. The thing is autists will focus on how the seeding is bad lick and not how in 2017 there still a region that Faceless can even win at, let alone dominate.

Either EG or Secret is guaranteed out in the seconds round, and whoever loses is going to disintegrate. EG might even disintegrate even if they lose at 3/4th.

You don't lose actual sodium, it's just that it gets diluted from all the water in the extracelular space

the reduced sodium lowers the osmolarity of the blood. This lower osmolar gradient affects neurons the most, which get start to get swollen from the water that enters them, and thus you get cerebral edema, which can get you killed

hi guys i just built a pc to play dota with, but I dont want to spend 200 to buy windows 8 or 10. Can someone tell me the fastest way to pirate it onto a usb

>>175070227
You can install ubuntu if dota is all you care about.

>>175069956
open gl does not adversely effect dota performance

>>175070312
well i do sorta want windows particularly cos of the aesthetic. But i will get ubuntu if I can't figure out a way to get windows for free.

>everyone thinking TNC will survive in the elimination phase
teams were messing around in the group stage because those games weren't as significant, so you might have been deluded into thinking they stood a chance. They don't. Assuming they can beat Faceless, neither OG nor Wings will give them a win. OG will instalock alch, naga or jugg and Random will straight up outplay them.
Same goes for DC. VGJ will be hard enough for them to beat. Second round they're out.
Greeks will be slaughtered 2-0.
Chinks will sweep the tourney.
All your dreams are dead, and all your memes are terrible.

OD ends teamfights at minute 30 on the lower brackets.
Splitpushing with Furion or Zet is a good way to end games.
Pick Riki and roam if you think your team can take advantage of it.
Pick Pudge and roam if you think they can't and you just want solo kills.
Pick Lina and win mid to snowball all game.
Pick Lion if your team lacks disables and your're again at a lower bracket.
Pick Warlock if your team lacks disables and you're at a higher bracket.
Pick Legion if you're willing to offlane and you can reliably pick up duel damage.
Pick Weaver if you know there won't be any early fights and you want to end around minute 40.
That's several pre-60 endings just off the top of my head. I'm sure there's more.
