Dota 7.0

Oh man, circle jerking and avatarfagging is allowed on Holla Forums! Oh BOY! :D :D :D :D :D

KILL YOURSELF YOU USELESS PIECE OF SHIT

Bets on how many months it will take to make talents meaningful and not "we let random engine pick a stat and its value"?

DAZZLE lv4 POISON STUNS FOR 1 SECOND AT THE END
DAZZLE LV5 REDUCES IT'S COOLDOWN TO 1 SECOND

LITERALLY PERMA STUN

LV25 TALENT

...

Half of them seem to tackle some haro specific flaws that iteams can't fix or improve what the hero already is strong at.
The other half seem to be picked a random.

supports probably will get even more broken talents in future patches as they rarely hit 25 if ever

Probably never. Talents have been HotS gimmick for almost 2 years now and it's just getting to a point that every character has multiple viable options instead of picking the single most optimal talent build in every single game regardless of the map or enemy team composition. And you know, that game only has a fraction of the characters dota has.
Some of them are pretty good, like a free dragonlance worth of range on carries that are super unsafe because of how short their range is. But some of those choices really are weird and random. Like why would you ever choose 150 flat health over +6 to all stats? It's only like 30 health less but you also get a good chunk of mana, almost a full point of armor, extra damage, attack speed, and hp/mana regen.

>or 90 damage on dark seer earlier

REMOVE COMEBACK MECHANICS AND I WILL PLAY THIS SHIT AGAIN

...

fuck mobas

Is the fact that you can't skill stats a nerf to core heroes like Anti-Mage?

How many of you actually dare to play ranked dota in the coming days? While not knowing how best to use talents? Or even while the techies rework hasn't been figured out?

at least post some porn in a dota thread

Kill yourself

Whats there to figure out? Techies is pretty much the same, but he can't get level 1 first blood anymore and his new allahu ackbar is meh.

no u

...

Post deer pussy.

Do you forget how dull the game was without a rubberband effect? Everything was decided in the first 20 minutes and if you were in the lead you got away with some stupidly sloppy play. This way the attackers have to actually keep playing the game properly, which is much better.

For what reason? They were the only fun hero to fucking play

I stopped playing when they changed techies. I might comeback as good old support again.

ALso, does Jakiro still look like flattened dogshit left to bake in the sun?
For being Valves biggest moneymaker (as a game that is) how the fuck can they just leave models looking like that?

That, and fuck the people who voted for Faceless Meme to get a rework in the compendium. God the more I think about this game and the way its managed the more pissed off I get.

Cause no one plays jakiro.

This?

...

...

мне нравится это

...

...

Jakiro is only played in 4.76% of games fam.

Sorry but all russian imageboards die. I stay here.

Phoenix and Dark Seer are picked less than that as well, are they shit?

Do you just read replies without context? Look at what I was replying to originally retard.

Sorry but DoTA is a national sport in russia.

I don't think your context helps you that much. Jakiro's good, he's fun and he's getting buffed next patch. Why not abuse the fact that so many sleep on him?

The retard was asking why Jakiro wasn't remodeled already. Use your single brain cell for once.

It hurts.

I can deal with everything except the map changes. Talents might just work, and the hud can be changed (They will probably add an option by popular demand) but the map is absolute shit now, not to mention it looks like a 13 yo made a warcraft 3 custom map

Im just waiting for Purge's 52 hours long analysis

I miss him.

Well if Valve would stop being gay and let mods work again.

...

Huh seems there are mods that work.

Still waiting for the fucking update to drop so I can try that shit out.

I still question a lot of decisions,talent tree sounds like cancer and the nerfs to fun stuff like stacking doms and techies mines sounds fucking pointless.

...

...

I dont think so. They have a large radius and you can place them on cliffs. Don't forget about 100% damage at any range.

Also you can't attack-move them away, so that will significantly increase the amount of time it takes to clear a patch.

I wonder if we'd be less shocked if this stuff came out gradually. People would likely wig out just from the talent trees alone; those drastically change the pace of the game.

WEW

What? I don't even like dota, but that's just untrue unless you count cosmetics as paid mods.

There are some pay to win mods with boosters on the dota shop

People here play this trash
People here defend this kikery
archive.is/hHqlC

If you don't like Dota you are welcome to hide the thread.

No, there aren't. If there are, prove it.

There are like 5 custom games with P2W "donations".

Pretty sure those aren't controlled by Valve.

And you know practically 90% of hte people who make custom game modes will do this shit. This, combined with Blizzards kikery and Bethesda not far behind really make it seem like everyone wants the modding scene to be fucking dead.

Custom games aren't the main game.

Nigger you just have to open the game

Roshpit Champions which is a shitty Diablo clone.

Custom games are mods, and a couple of them have this shit. Although since that got introduced there haven't been any new ones since the initial batch.

Funny how the Overwatch thread is dead in the water while this shit is up, really makes me wonder.

And yet you keep supporting this garbage

They are ingame
Nice spacing btw

And people laughed at the Mayday niggers

Difference is that custom games are made by players, not Valve, Valve doesn't control what you can charge for in custom games. Payday 2 skins were made by them and those boosts were chosen by them.

...

So, paid mods?
How is that not worse than doing it themselves?

glorious

...

...

Why are you on this thread then?

Although to be fair that is the general reaction across the playerbase every time a major update happens.

I NEED to fuck enchantress in her asshole

imgur.com/gallery/CuIrM
merry christmas faggot

Paid mods were completely blocking the mods themselves unless the price was paid,this shit is closer to donator privileges on custom TF2 private servers rather than paid mods inofitself.

Granted this shit is self fixing and I doubt anyone with more than a single braincell wouldn't be able to understand that fact.

I sure hope so.

dota2.com/customgamepassfaq?l=english

...

Aren't these copy pasted from heroes of the storm ? They have the exact same per several levels talent upgrade to main skills.
Why is icefraud copying from worst ASSFAGGOTS ?

It goes like this

Yes, I'm sure its just as utopic as you described Marx.

Also patch improve Visage summons. Now they are viable.

It's scary but they did a lot of changes and you can't immediately see Icefraud's vision.

If you read all of the changes you'll know that none of this is random and that he at least has a plan. It might be shit, but there's something here.

The talent trees are the iffiest part of this update, but we'll see.

PC Gamer wrote about the update; said Dota 2 was made by Blizzard in multiple instances throughout the article. Editor doesn't even notice it. Finally changed it after the comments savaged them. The guy has never played the game.

Send this go goober graples.

In a game where they can never balance the heroes and items, they have decided to add more things that can ruin the balance further. Additional points of failure. More shit to unsuccessfully balance.

...

I think the reason they are putting in talent tree is to fix some weaknesses the characters have that can' solved buy adding buffing a hero or adding some iteam.

icefrog is a pretty cool guy. eh balances shit and doesnt afraid of anything

It's guaranteed to increase snowballing. It works in an shitty game like heroes of the storm, but the foundation for dota and dota2 is different.
It will be a huge mess at start.

At first I thought that too, but if you think about it, talent trees are a double edged sword. Yes, it's even more variables to keep in mind when balancing the whole thing, but it's also more variables to help you balance the whole thing.

Now Icefraud can control all the stages of the game better by having small but significant changes for each hero at key points in the game (levels 10 15 20 25).

If there is any hack fraud I'd trust with this shit it's Icefraud. The game might be shit for awhile, but it could end very well. This past TI had one of the best patches I've seen in the game ever when it comes to balance and variety of viable picks.

is there a talent to remove peru yet? until then I'm not touching this shit again

You say balance, buy this makes it even harder to do comebacks which are the interesting thing in pro games.
You can bet that more pro and casual games will end faster once a team gets a 2 level lead and reaches 10 on multiple heroes faster. Or 15 or 20 etc.

Isn't peru have they own server?

Honestly, I don't actually play the doto, but keep up with it from watching esports. It actually seems like a fun change and seems to give more options for counterplay.

that doesnt stop them from queuing on other servers

Reminder in old DoTA if you reach 70 min and killed a a little NPC frog in river - activate end game boss.

It keeps getting better

yeah, it's called US East and it has left me without a good server to play on

Serious question. Why do BR's think ratting is everything except for this

Is NA really that bad? Russians speak broken english and play well on average, good players and shit ones

I miss him and original bane.

user pls, children play this game.

Not even that, it's the damn chinks. They've got some weird regulations about not showing skellytans in media that they only apply to foreign media anyways.

Considering all the +XP gain talent, scaling XP tomes and Level 25 being the equivalent of Level 23, max level is gonna become way more common.

doe have very small vaginas, because bucks have long pencil dicks
your thumb could make their knees buckle

fucking hell

He looks like a duck

I suppose. I would have figured the +GPM/+XP talents would be intended either to keep supports caught up with the cores, or for faster wins (since if you take the game to when half the players are already max level/six-slotted, that talent selection is essentially lost stats).

I like the new one better. A friend gave me the arms holding eyeballs and they make him look even better

That picture is the essence of the Skeleton King. This mod has my blessing.

Those are the alpha assets.

I'd honestly like the new one better if they kept with the subtlety that he's just deformed nightmare Void.

...

...

I miss the original broodmother.

Fucking stupid Image heroes are now worthless.

...

Pick zues and sven and farm his images.

...

...

Every fucking time. I hate those things.

Enjoy

After reading all the notes and looking into it, I am convinced this is either going to kill Dota 2 or wash it down to a copy pasted MOBA mess.

Wtf was Valve doing? The casuals who play LoL and HoTS have no interest in Dota and as such this attempt to make it more like those games is not going to do shit besides piss off Dota fans. Not like any of these changes were needed. So many changes at once, talents are bad enough but suddenly ANOTHER map remake, a VERY heavy hint at a forced jungle role, babby's first regen shrines, and other forms of cancer there is no way this is going to end well. Pile on another round of "buy our pixels" and you have 7.00 in a nutshell.

So the only real question is do I dump all my arcana/cosmetics now or hope they increase in value?

Are you sure it's forced jungle? They respawn on odd minutes, this feels more of a nerf to jungling, especially to those who get a big stack and clear it with AOE. It's a buff to mobile fucks like AM/Void though, since we have twice as much ancients and more camps overall.

Your making it sound like talent trees made the game easier but in practice it is just bloating the difficulty even more. How hard was it to add stats? After level 16 every level up was brainless, don't imply stat leveling was some huge process that defined dota, it was a side effect of how stats were made. And making something that was simply to a more complex process (and yes I know that at first there will always be a shitty choice and everyone will of course pick on option over the other but like any other process it can be refined, even HotS managed to do it.)

As for forced jungling, I don't think so, I think the new map is a nerf to stacking, so heroes that just stacked the same camp 5 times and blast through it aren't as useful as mobile ones like said. The shrines at first look like a cheap addition but with their massive cooldown it's not like everyone and their mother can jungle in LoL. And it just gives the option to make that many less trips back to the Fountain. They will still be made, but less so.

Keep the cosmetics because I don't think it will decrease or increase the pool of players that much at all except for autists like you.

Though I do have to say, the UI change was complete garbage and babbies first MOBA but as long as it's optional you don't have to care about it.

This guy could have easily shot him
These guys could have easily shot him
This guy could have easily shot him
0/10 glad I didn't watch

All the more reason for a Jungle role because saving creeps for stacking and killing is not as good. The 2 min spawn doesn't matter because most heroes early game can't clear all the camps in a min anyways. Jungle now has more creeps, welfare runes, and shrines nearby in case you fuck up. Calling it now the new meta is going to be Iron Talon/Bottle jungle.

The other issues having nothing to do with stats vs talents, and I never said that stats was a good post 16 choice. I actually like the talent system but they fact they so blatantly ripped off HoTS to make it is just lazy. The bigger issue is that all these changes, make the game "easier" and by that I mean "less impactful" because they cover for the player. Much like auto aim makes a certain arena shooter garbage.

Take this example: shrines. They are shit because they cover up for the player making any of the following mistakes: bad lane duo, not enough regen, greedy farming, poor teleport scoll management, and just sloppy laning in general. If you made these mistakes before you had to walk back to base and by doing this enough gave the other team a sizable advantage. Now it's "lol who cares I got a pocket fountain." Same for the stunbar above player heads. Before the other team might mistime their stuns and you could get away, not anymore. Tales, as someone already pointed out make up for the fact you can't farm for shit or you got the wrong items for late game.

Like I said these aren't terrible if you are trying to attract the LoL/HoTS casuals but at this point that ship as long sailed. All they are doing is making Dota less like Dota and more like those other games, with no real gain to be had.

They just nerfed talon for dedicated jungling. Didn't they try to make jungle alternative to lost lane? You lose lane, you go jungle instead of contesting it. Also, I think this jungle is sort of buff for Doom, especially hardlane. You go to devour creep, finish camp, grab a rune and go back. Devour one creep in lane or enemy jungle, repeat.
Jungle bounty runes promote rare visits to jungle overall, I think.

Games ruined.

Jesus christ they have children.
They have fucking children.
You're not killing mindless creatures, you're killing fathers.

Who the fuck thought giving creeps a personality was a good idea in a game where you can DENY creeps.
When you deny a creep you're possibly killing a father or a son just so the enemy can't get the gold.
This turns the whole fucking table around.

She was so beautiful.

Just played a game as a jungler and god it sucked. Yes early game I can't kill more than say three camps in a minute but sure as hell can't do it in 2 due to how everyone's movement speed with no boots sucked. Tried to use the fountain to help but it's takes as much time to tp to a shrine, wait 5 seconds to heal and walk back to where I was, shrines feel like half a trip to a fountain with how much they regen at any point in the game. Which sure, is nice, to not completely have to go back, but tping to the shrine and walking back to lane just takes half as much time to go back to fountain and heals half as much. Playing as a jungler, the camps spawning every two minutes was meh. You're right that I can't take all of them in one but it's not like at level one I can take them all in two.

What I did notice is that the way these camps are set up, pulling is no longer a concept whatsoever, it's simply impossible as far as I can see. So now you don't fuck around in the jungle unless you can take it.

As per stunbars and highlighting the stacking areas etc. It isn't skill to autistically memorize where you need to put the ward to block the camp it should be making the decision of which camp to block. Sure stacking stuns takes less skill now but seriously the parts of the do.

Go look at the patch right now, the only people that got buffs to gold per a minute were supports who aren't even supposed to fucking farm, this doesn't give them tools to farm just to keep up.

Let me list the number of things that have completely removed that were completely unique to dota with this patch.
That's it, that's all that was taken out and replaced, were those two things what DOTA completely revolved around or SHOULD revolve around? Even you said you liked skills you just hate how boring it is but this is the first fucking iteration, it takes time. neutrals are still just a gold resource, not "mercenaries" like HotS or give buffs like LoL. There is now more places to TP to and half a fountain trip. There are more runes but they act the same way they used to just in a new place. Dota is still Dota.

Is there porn of the loli creep yet?

Whoa there if you wanna make excuses for everything Dota is doing fine, just don't twist my words to do it.

First off if you have to take trips to the fountain as a jungle you are doing something wrong, if you get a real jungle hero (don't worry they will be buffing others soon) such as enigma or chen you are never going to leave lane because there is no reason to be there in the first place. Your lane partner now as a nice refreshing Shire to keep them going and you get bottle runes ever 1 min as well as river runes. Unlimited mana and hp in jungle. That's all I am saying. this is the first step in making it a new lane, they did it in other MOBAs and it seems Dota has no problem from stealing other ideas.

Second, I was not talking about talents that buff gpm. I was saying in some cases there is a static +50 damage talent or something like +200 Attack or cast range. These are thousands of gold items you essentially get for free now, and you get them at a stage which would normally be too late to go back and farm them. As I said, it covers for you not seeing deeper into the game and realizing a game might go long or end quick. So stack up on mid game items because now you have fallback talents in case you fuck up.

Third, I am not talking about things removed from dota that made dota. I am talking about things ADDED that are NOT dota. So you list should be:

And this is just the last few patches.
You can now tell me I am wrong and how I am just scared of change ect ect.

League of Dota: Defense of the Storm 2

I too want heartfelt stories about Ilexa and awww pics.

How come the couriers, creeps and summons have so little in the lewds catagory?
Who allowed such a travesty to occur?

Because there's like 10 waifus and even more husbandos to draw porn of already

What's wrong with backpack and where was it implemented? If I remember right, LoL has only 7th slot for warding tool.
I also like stunbars.

Has the combination of the New UI being spread across the whole screen and there being multiple levels of high ground given anyone else motion sickness playing this fucking thing?!

Creeps are like heroes, then get to respawn until you kill the ancient

Because it enables shit like this

There is no such thing as being outdrafted anymore, you can literally buy your items out of any situation.

And thats not the worst of it, I was 3-4 as pudge my last game and I had Treads, Hurricane Pike, Urn, and most of octarine in 30 fucking minutes because creeps early on are worth 40 fucking gold.

Gave me a massive fucking headache.

you're not only one.

If you're at the point in the game where you're 6 slotted and need to stick shit in your backpack drums and greaves aren't going to do much for you.

The are we heroes comic already depicted that they were at least a bit sentient. They're just fanatics.

Same.

God damn every fucking time.

I like soloing lanes, being tanky, and killing people.

I dunno about that because they reduced the amount of XP needed to hit level 25 and many supports have talents to increase XP gain.

like this guy?

You do realize the cooldown is doubled on backpacked items, right? Plus, there's a 6 second lull between items switched. If refresher is a must buy, they would have bought it and just left it in their stash. It's not like a fountain trip and port back would have been impossible at that point in the game, since you would have TP boots as well.

What? doturd has talents now?

Oh well, enjoy your stay. We already have overlyshit so you won't make a difference.

You seem to be mixing doturd with lol

do you even speak english?

It's exclusively played by children

oops

do you?

Bravo valve

honestly fam idk tbh. rubberbanding seems to fuck over really aggressive moves when it's paired with how much stronger high ground has become (maybe people just became more aware generally speaking of high ground in my own experience).

Greaves isn't a must buy item it has double cooldown inside the backpack and 6 second cooldown before it even applies stats on the hero. On top of that, you seem to forget that there is a debuff placed on you for the greaves so you can only use them on it's average cooldown. Same for refresher which was to combat shit where people where refreshing once during a team fight and putting it back to the stash, people were literally doing this already.

The whole idea that you can keep a TP In you backpack sounds nice until you realize it gives you a fucking 6 second delay ON TOP of channel where now where you are going to is a mess.

Tbh I have a hard time reading any of the information on the screen, not really motion sickness just not being able to fucking understand what's on the UI and I really hope they make this optional.

Well now you're just flat out lying, all runes on the map are on a 2 minute timer bounty or not, on top of that the bounty rune only gives 2 charges for the precious bottle you think all the junglers you think are important.
I thought your entire argument was now there was a forced jungler role and if the game now has
then people who didn't jungle before can do it to right? Even if they suck and have to go back to shrine to heal? Also, that shrine you keep mentioning going to is halfway the distance back to fountain and only can be used every 5 minutes, at best, each one can only be used ONCE during the laning stage by any of the five heroes. I understand what you appear to be saying about it being a soft reset button for mistakes but the one next to you can only be used once maybe twice for a laning stage per side.

You've been bitching that Dota isn't Dota anymore but nothing has been removed from the base of it only more things added on top. If they completely changed how something worked, i.e. skills into talents (which you already said you actually liked you just hate how they did it) Dota is literally not Dota anymore on this one thing, adding things ON TOP of what Dota already had makes it Dota with more shit piled on to be either more resource heavy or etc.
covered
already proved that this is not forced and no one that wasn't a jungler before will be able to jungle now as even you said
You made the assumption they would add more, which is fine but that isn't the state of it right now.
You already said you liked this just hate how it was a blatant rip off but it's the first fucking iteration of the patch it took HotS two years to balance their talents and make them interesting Dota can probably manage it too.
I have found the backpack to be completely lack luster for anything that isn't finishing an item that involves the secret shop myself and storing the normal store components in the slots.
Well unless a person goes out of their way for any of the bounties (which would be a waste of time and resources) no one is getting more than the usual a bounty rune per every two minutes now most likely two people are. My god it's just like when they added bounty at first so there were TWO whole runes on the map every two minutes instead of one. Welfare for xp and gold straight up buffs are for supports only, as for the right click and range buffs given for talents
Giving a player more information about how to stack a disable doesn't mean he is any less likely to stack them if he's an idiot, no matter the mmr.
Why are you bitching about scan?

Holy shit. Triple camp stacking AND hard lane pull. Dire ftw.
youtu.be/89gDroSGTmY?t=9m55s 9:55 for triple stack, and 3:10 for pulling.

That's pretty crazy but radiant can pull an ancient camp to mid now which I'd take any day over those.

ITT: Damage control.
This is pretty obvious a throwback to the casual mobas, they have fucked up doto making it much easier than it used to be, because Valve said MUH SHEKELS.
TALENTS. FREE GOLD. FREE XP FROM ILLUSIONS.

You have more chances to feed gold/xp from summons (treants/spiders/eidolons), then from illusions, since pl gives fixed 5 gold/xp. Most affected hero is probably Naga.

...

Bump to piss off retards.
Is the new UI good or not? Download is gonna take a while, CLQ hated it.

Only thing i like is the placement of the damage and armor stats.

Shit layout. A resize-able map wasn't worth this.

They just nerfed illusion damage on buildings. And two illusions from rune once in 4 minutes (assuming it spawns and you get it) is NOTHING. 2 level 25 illusions give 50 gold. Manta Style gives at level 18 36 gold, that's one creep per 30 seconds. And with some heroes getting absurd talents, midas will be more prominent, raising average gpm. One more bounty rune will raise average gpm too. GPM talents on supports. Illusions are drop in the ocean.

UI is awful and needs to be optional.

You might notice that I am not including Manta style, that's because when you're at the point that someone has farmed up a manta style the 20 odd gold and xp they get for the kill WILL NOT FUCKING MATTER.

oh wait, forgot, add Warlock and Visage (yeah I know no one plays him) to minion based list to the list.

Phantom Lancer illusions give 5 gold, while we're talking about him and new patch. It's less that a spiderling.

I don't even play Dota but does it seriously not have a customizable HUD in current year? This shit would be fixed if they just let people make their own UI. They've even got the stupid community workshop thing people could upload them to. Why did they waste all that time making a new one?

Because they sell skins for the UI.

Bottom of the barrel.
Don't be suprised if you get headaches or want to vomit.
Disable shaky stun cam and tree animation in the wind. Makes it a bit more bearable.

Was used for some unfair stuff in CS:GO like countdown to bomb explosion. You could probably do the same with Dota.

In case anyone needs an in depth analysis:

Now those are small stupid changes based on the old hud. Here's the real bullshit:

This is just the hud. Talents might or might not work, sanctuaries allow you to deny any gank, you can see top middle rune standing on the middle high ground on day time, the map looks like a cheap warcraft 3 custom map, there bullshit they added to appeal to the wrong audience is endless

Wow that looks like a phone game.

Nice game doturds.

I was never happy with the shop UI, so I am alright if they keep trying to make it better.

The rest of the UI…well it was changed before, we'll get used to it. Not that there was any good reason to revamp it.

wew lad

Reminder that you're all trash at videogames and only play this shit because you're either addicted retards or because your retarded normalfag friends are addicted to it and you fall for peer preassure.
Reminder that you will never have those 2000 hours back.
Reminder that you will never play a good videogame.
Reminder that the game gets shittier everytime its updated.
Remimdee that you're literally playing LoL while denying it.

Its all metafagging that goes nowhere just like any /vg/ tier thread about the trash.
Its funny how the game perfectly reflects its playerbase.

I don't think you know what that word means.

Also Dota 7.0 is merely a big transformation of the same tired Dota. They have been trying to change it for awhile now, but this update was the more radical one.

It'll still be Dota with all of it's clusterfuckness.

Checked. Now back to Dota.

I play this because I find it fun, I don't have friends to play this with and I quit for a few months
I won't, you're right.
Confirmed for never playing either.

That is if they add the old hud back. Talents might ruin everything, the map is completely changed, neutrals respawn/roshan is changed, backpacks and consumables buffs, everything changes the game

As I said, radical.

Same heroes, same items. More variables, but it's still doto.

Also Monkey King seems fun.

Is James still banned for triggering a bunch of cunts?

Techies is dead.

Why has the art style Dota been going towards the Blizzard style cartoon clusterfuckery?

Has it?

...

Because they're exactly the same trash

Because they let you mix and match 5 billion user made shit items.

Valve fucked Dota in the ass with this patch. Shills are in full force defending this crap. Here is what's on the frontpage of r/dota2. 6 reasons why patch 7.00 has been awesome for me

1.Game's fast and fun
2. No need to go to base, free heal xd
3. It's easy to level lul
4. It's easy to get gold lul
5. Root is better
6. Monkey King players suck hehe it's not like the hero is OP like every new hero

No wonder Dota is shit now, there are retards upvoting shit like this and muh SirActionRandumxd.

...

Why are you going to reddit user?

i like the new patch. i don't feel as invested in the game anymore, should make it easier to finally kick the addiction.

the jungle change was to slow down heroes who could still clear creep camps easily alch in particular. I don't think it changes the jungling aspect too much from the previous version, but it does gimp stacking enough to prevent X hero from failing in lane, clearing a stacked camp and come out ahead.

Whoever's responsible for this needs to be drawn and quartered.

Ability Draft is pretty much ruined by talents now.
I'm gonna try AP later on, but AD is the only reason I play Dota 2.

After reading it I have to say that he makes more points against 7.00 then for it.
Unless ofc you view casulasation as a pro argument.

Newsflash, the development direction is aimed towards TI big money dota, not trash custom games.

This patch is fucking garbage, the new UI is shit and has less info, the new shop is shit and has less info and I hate African American Kang, firstpick the last 3 matches in my shitheap smurf and booster filled sub 2k matches.

I don't really care about the update but the UI ruined my will to play the game.

Literally everything about it is bad.

...

WTF

I don think the new Ui is that bad, the night/day clock bit sucks and should be reversed but I adapted to it very quickly.

However I really dislike the way you look at units and heros now when you click on them

Runes only spawn on one side of the river now.

Fuck off reddit

i'm gonna have to tell you to fuck my dick with your mouth

Look how the lol map as well as UI is designed.
They went after lol players with their changes to make a transition for them easier.
At least that's the only logical explanation I have for this fucking mess.

...

I'm sorry you're bored friend but I don't this place has what you are looking for

Is the guy who draws the fucked up shit

Is that

I don't like this patch.

Is what?

Is that the guy who draws the really fucked up fetish gross nasty stuff?

Press alt.

Who?

SPECIFICS, NIGGER!

Nobody does, I think its fitting that it says, "A new journey is about to begin" at the start, I imagine that's what those stupid indians got told before being force marched down the trail of tears. Just fuck my game up frog

This is the only one I could find that didn't involve being being swallowed by anuses.

But thats not the same artist?

I really wanna see the player numbers a month from now. This patch has completely killed any desire to play Dota for me which is fucking remarkable. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Valve is too scared to let modding back in their actively supported games. Remember the last time mods became big? It eclipsed the stuff the team could give. That's bad for their company image.

You know you're on Holla Forums right?
Hand over the anus swallowing.

That's nitrotitan isn't it?

Just call it vore

You see besides it being a shit game this is one of the reasons why threads like these get shat on
Fuck off back to reddit

An image of dick girls got you this mad.
Sounds like denial to me.

...

there were dota threads during the early days of the exodus. if anything, these threads have existed on 8ch longer that you have. take your own advice and fuck off back to your safe space.

Has anyone had the chance to try Doom yet? If so, how insane is devour now?

...

Are you fucking trying to "MUH BOARD CULTURE"?
It's not working, go back to reddit.

And they were all spammed to death until the constant cuckchan floods made this fucking board the shitpiece that it is today with hotpocketery and shit taste nearing 4cuck levels.
Nice formatting by the way,

This reddit meme is only used by redditors.

I just love autistic video game break downs and him

t.reddit

Hi Reddit

Nice channel faggot
kill yourself

king king
skeleton king

...

i'm easily baited

k

no it wasn't until the third exodus or so that newfags started shitting on the threads. filter the thread if you don't like it. it's not that hard.

there's 15 fucking pages you can go through, and this thread is purely kept alive by anons arguing against you.

does this trigger you?

i still need to fuck her in her asshole

Y'know the funniest thing about the term ASSFAGGOTS is that it actually originated in early DOTA 2 threads to make fun of Riot's marketing and their push for the quite frankly meaningless MOBA name for the genre. For fuck's sake the screencapped post they throw around has fucking Juggernaut in it.
It really does show the caliber of newfags trying way too hard to fit in when they throw it around in a Dota thread of all places.

It really does. It's not even that much of an insult, but it's just a term to describe a type of game similar to aeon of strife

The best part is after shitting on dota they go back to their Overcuck threads and pokemon circle jerk

After spending a day with the patch, I like it. Talents fill a big hole in most characters' playstyles so you can get a lot more out of them, making the game deeper in a good way. The map changes are the craziest yet and will take some time getting my head around - rubes seem to never be available anymore. Monkey King is pretty cool though he is a PAIN to lane against.

The only thing that sucks is the UI. It has none of the tribal flare that first made Dota 2's art so appealing. It makes you look left and right and squint like it's trying to give you a headache. And it's hella painful to look at the items your enemy has when you click on them - do we REALLY need to see our characters all the time?

dota 2 is about kills

unlike league of shitends you lose gold when you die and also lose exp while dead

that makes kills much more efficient than farming

also ganks and map awareness and good plays are crucial

wew

invoker, doom, chaos knight
I also enjoy fooling around with medusa mid, terrorblade (terrorfeed), abadon carry, omniknight carry (sange yasha both), lina (with dagon aghanim crystalis), dragon knight mid (cool looking armor set), kunkka (failboat)

most trolly: windranger with aghanim rush, undying tank kill stealer, weaver without W (only 1 level) (max E, the double attack), phantom lancer (rape), vengeful carry with satanic

While being behind in kills can gimp you pretty hard, you can still win with the right team composition and tactic.

well to be fair even if you dont lose gold youre not earning it. its like piracy, youre losing potential gold and experience.

I've fapped to this picture. Something about her goofy face.

...

I couldn't fap to that. I like the suggestion more than actually seeing it. Like that episode where Jerry doesn't want to see the girl fully nude because it's a turn off.

"I miss my bones" I do too Wraith King, I do too.

Animation time, it can be cast every second, but the animation may take more time.

...

sounds like someone is in luuuuv

Kills do mean a lot, but more in the sense that you're gimping the enemy's XP and gold gain, and by extension delaying their late game levels and items. Late game kills mean way more because you're weakening whatever defense the enemy may have.

So with the talents having come in, I feel like all the gaps in Juggernaut's past game have been filled. Snowballing well like you wanted? Pick the aggressive talents to do more. Team's not doing too great and you need your abilities to do damage in fights? Pick armour and stat talents so you can tank with healing ward. Tired of Blade Fury not having an impact anymore? Get him to max level where it can do 1400 magic damage to the whole enemy team. He can be a lot more survivable if he wants to be now, or he can snowball even harder than before.

What other characters have talents really helped fit into the game even better, do you think?

I want to meet a slav girl with a funny upturned nose and a goofy smile like that.

It's so sad that that's the case. If a company can create a product that evolves past their potential that shows me that they have boundless potential. I'm always a fan of things like that.

I am at 3:53:00 at the Purge Patch video.

I don't understand the haters. This patch made me excited to pick up the game again.

Can't wait to see how crazy Ability draft gets.

I'm at 4:29:00 at the purge video, unlike everyone else's emotion fueled drawl here on Holla Forums I tend to trust his almost robotic analysis on what will happen in regards to this patch. Can't wait until he spends 45 minutes on Techies at the end of it like the autist he is.

Btw have you guys started hating Purge yet or is he still cool?

I would be surprised if he still has your full favour.

There's always that one user that wants to fuck Purge, other than that I don't think anyone hates him, he definitely doesn't do the whole >LOL SO RANDUMB thing that Holla Forums hates

I went through the entire thing and it was pretty good. He kinda starts getting tired and goes through some of talent of the last heroes very quickly, but oh well.

Purge is too autistic and sexy to be hated

Found the user wants to fuck purge

I take back nothing. Purge is a sexy beast

wew lad

well at least that's better than being randomely contrarian and hating him

Meh,going to take his advice, if this fucking game ever finishes downloading! I swear you finally cut yourself off by deleating it just to get sucked back in… and now its 8 hours later and getting one 200mb patch after another.

He sucks when he actually plays the game though.

Only problem on this patch, that everyone agrees with, is the UI is too minimal, and too small, I have a hard time accurately seeing my abilities and reading them, and especially right after a patch like this, that is a huge problem.

Depends on the game, Purge sometimes completely blows when he's makes stupid decisions. Does anyone know his current mmr? I know he's in 4k~ territory but I can't remember where, but on top of that, Purge knows mechanics down pat and how to best use time, he just has shitty decision making. One thing I love about his videos is purge will explain exactly how a hero works, what that hero gets, and what that hero should do without personal bias like other people. He's robotic in his approach so he can teach you the basics, and if you have the right judgement skills and reflexes (things you can't teach) you can build off of there.

You fags ever considered playing a good game in your shitty life?

Farmville

I KNOW RIGHT LOL? I mean when I was a 12 year old kid I played this garbage but now that I am an adult (im 17 btw) I see how stupid this game is. I mean 4 skills, 1 unit, what is this 1999 lel?!!! I play real games, and if I can't micro over 20 units at a time it really shows how baby the game is. I have been practicing my APM and now that I am at around 150 I am ready to break into the pro scene, but I bet most of the n00bs who play this baby game can't even break 100 APM, and everyone knows that means you're not good. I would rather play a REAL game like CoD where I am ranked #17 in my state for overall kills. I bet the n00bs who play FAGGOTASSES can't even stay above 1:1 K/D/A lolololol. Why don't you guys play a real strategy game like Hearthstone? Most of this heroes in your game do the same thing, and whoever has the better mid wins, so stupid.

Enjoy your shit game n-words! I will be pwning you in 2017 on my alienware (I'm going to be sponsored soon) so if you see xxxDarthPwnerxxx you better just quit!

I stopped playing for a long time.

Just reinstalled Dota. I had 550 hours.
I am really excited about the changes. We all knew that the map was going to be made symmetrical a long time ago.

I also like the talent tree, it adds depht.

Also moonwells. Very cool addition!

Same here, Hopefully you do better than I did, I was so rusty at the characters I used to play, could have been a statue… and an actual statue would probably have benefited the team more.

Guys, what the fuck is wrong with my dota profile.

0 Rampages, 0 Aegis steals or cheese eaten?

Okay, I usually sell the cheese or give it to other people, but I almost certainly had stolen some aegises and had definetly more than 0 Rampages.

Haven't played in some months.

The client is just bugging out and stopping at 100%.

Fuck. Valve must have changed the source engine a bit. It crashes my computer when i start it.

I completly reinstalled it. I don't have any problems. :^)

I can't wait to play Skywrath Mage.

Wanna guess which item I am going to use, which was already core on him before?

Ironic Facebook posting belings on cuckchan much like yourself.

Christ, end your life

I show on the primary symptoms of autism: hating change

I can't handle added complexity and therefore feel like sperging out.

kys famalam

His picture of Vengeful Spirit that he gazes at for hours every night?
Atos is hella good now, ain't it?

And here I was thinkin Dota 2 might actually provide some interesting custom games
Fucking valve
