doter 2 WHILST MVP DID NOT WIN THE MAJOR THEY WON OUR HEARTS

[ColonicAcid]

시청자 여러분

지금끼 MVP 의 Shanghai Major 였 습니디
저버도없고 인기도없 는 도타지만4 강까지 왔습니다
정말이번안질타보다는 격려를, 비판보다는 칭친을 부탁드립다
1년전DAC 에서1승 13패를 기록하고 여기까지 왔습니다
TI 에서 Redeye 가 한국팀이 12개월 안에 이; 이저대회에서
잘 할거라고했 을 떄다들비웃었습니다만 여기까지왔습니다
여기까지 오는데 있었던선수들의노력에감사합니다

시청해주져저감사합니다

what that (roughly) translates to is the following:
Viewers,
mvp, in the shanghai majors
they had no server, no reputation. this is dota but we made it to top 4
i sincerely ask for you to not blame but cheer, congratulate not criticise
a year ago at DAC they had 1W 13L now they are at the top
last TI redeye said korea would be dominant at the major, everyone laughed, but look now.
thanks to the athletes who went
thank you for watching me


From what I could hear from that clip he wasn't crying because they lost btw, he was crying because how far MVP got to. i mean look at what aqua was doing in the finals:

[Sometinyprick]

Well i guess they prob got a direct invite to the next major because of it, i mean koreans are pretty crazy good when it comes to video games in general pulling of shit like this

this is the 10k fucking 100k dream carl doppleganger dodge of the century HOLY FUCK QO PLEASE

[Sometinyprick]

daily reminder that every time eg loses a lan it's honeypot and ppd is just analysing the drafts and getting ready for ti, manila or next non-honeypot lan

[Lumbermancer]

Intelligence now increases your spell damage by 1% per 16 Intelligence points.

oy vey

[ColonicAcid]

smh
this makes very little sense considering that the whole point of mages was to create early game space and then be deadweight late game unless you had some utility.


this is also buff to qop

[Zilenan91]

6.87 SHIT'S GOING DOWN

TERRORBLADE LITERALLY INVULNERABLE 1 0 A R M O R
HUSKAR BUFFS LITERALLY SPEED OF LIGHT HANDS AND ARMLET BUFF TO ARMOR MY BLUE NIGGA
AXE BUFFS PURE DAMAGE SPIN KILL LITERALLY EVERYTHING MY RED NIGGA
BANE BUFFS LESS MANA ON ENFEEBLE RAPE PEOPLE IN LANE IN ONE OF THE MOST BRUTAL WAYS POSSIBLE MY PURPLE NIGGA
EARTHSHAKER BUFF LITERALLY TIME TO SLAM IT'S THE SPACE JAM

[yackemflam]

WOOOO
PA BUFF

[Zilenan91]

>PA Buff

OSFrog just added into the game the Orchid 2.0, or how I like to call it, fuck PA harder than an industrial piledriver : the item
Also he buffed Axe who will shit all over PA with his pure spin, and Huskar is also quite good against PA with his retarded attack speed and magic damage.
Also Bane shits all over her
Really any hero shits all over her with her unable to really do anything now that the orchid 2.0 is in the game

[yackemflam]

BKB yo
Axe will shit all over PA anyhow Huskar too
BKB
BKB

[Zilenan91]

You got a BKB, big whoop, you got no damage and once that shit is low duration, which it will since you get mulched otherwise, you'll be dead in the water since you delayed all your damage items and have no farm

I guess you could probably run PA with a Bane so he could blink aghs on dudes and blow them up but you could do that with any other hero and it'd be better than PA in that role.

[Erbbu]

Dank patch. Guess I'll test it out in some yolo queue. Haven't played Dota in months.

Edit: Oh also: https://fat.gfycat.com/DemandingVerifiableCollie.webm

[ColonicAcid]

BUT CLEMEEEEEEEEEEEEENTTTT THE KOREANS ARE TAKING MY MMR : ((((

[Erbbu]

TI6 battle passes are out.

[ColonicAcid]

FUCKING CHINA SERVERS....


PERFECT WORLD IS GAY

[ColonicAcid]

WHY VALVE

FOR WHAT REASON

WHYYY

ALL I WANT IS JUST A GOLD QO STOP GIVING ME THIS SHIT


I guess it worked out in the end though? I don't know why they let you pick all the players for the fucking wild card matches like what??

[Lumbermancer]

hah...

baseball cards...

[nsos]

s4 is fucking horrid

[ColonicAcid]

OG BAGGED AND TAGGED LOL

[nsos]

[TankNut]

This TI was easily the best one. Production quality was amazing.

[Bolien]

Alright so after a year off, TI6 has pushed me back into this hell of a game.

Who wants to dive into the depths of MMR with me?

[captain sawrge]

i didnt watch the grand finals because eg lost

[Bolien]

It was a bummer yeah but DC is also NA and they were super fun to watch.
The real shame is that our Chinese overlords reign supreme once again.

[420goslingboy69]

LOL FUNNY MIRANA POTM OF THE MONTH TRASH MID EVERY GAME EVEYR GAME MID MID MID MIRANA MID MIRANA MID MIRANA LOL AGHS RUSH BLINK EBLADE LMFAO ECVERY GAME MIRANA MID 4-4-1-1 LMFAO LITERALLY 1000 DAMAGE WITH TWO SPELLS AT LVL 9 LOL LOL LOL!

[ColonicAcid]

Potm can be strong and you never even need to skill arrow. Arrow helps for sure, the problem is most idiots try and hit blind when you should allow a team mate to set up the stun... SD, Naga, Tidehunter etc. Potm's strength is the fact that as soon as you get aghs your GPM is going to make a fucking alchemist cry and you are always a constant space creator that can fucking murder anyone who comes near you. Eblade and blink allows you to both escape and also murder even more people.

She's just strong, but she's not uncounterable.

[420goslingboy69]

I found Dicks Assassin can help combat her if your team can help for your lack of attack damage. Or really anyone who can catch them by surprise and be generally anti-fun by using dagon or other haha, your armour doesn't matter agility hero with no health to begin with.

Sniper is very good this meta against potm. After leap is used, she is completely open to assassination, but you normally need to instigate a teamfight, but sniper is a teamfighter carry anyway.

[420goslingboy69]

That and assassination before it hits prevents leet runaway stealth, right?

Units under assassination from sniper has their invisibility shown, but once the shot hits, they are no longer shown. Leap does disjoint it, though.
Tb quite honest, the new ptom Mirana is a new breath of fresh air from the Storm Spirit hell and other mid type carries, in that the build alone is quite fun and refreshing. I don't know why, though, Mirana is not played as a semi-support. Instead of using aghs to farm, why not use aghs as a buffer in fights? Stand in the back, throw your arrows and what not, if the enemy goes past your front line nuke (maybe even save arrow so you can stun+nuke). I feel she would be a perfect 3rd pos if you can have a 4th pos offlaner, 5th pos sup, 1st pos carry, 2nd pos core mid.

[420goslingboy69]

Aghs is used to farm...? But I thought it only activated under enemy sight, which by the time you would probably want to get it means that'd only happen in team fights or someone being out of position?

Neutrals are counted for activation, I'm pretty sure.

[lzimann]

Mirana's agh is probably one of the strongest in the game right now. Does so much(it's like a QoP ult but 360 and with like 8sec cooldown), helps you farm and is insane in teamfights.

Mirana's agh is probably one of the strongest in the game right now. Does so much(it's like a QoP ult but 360 and with like 8sec cooldown), helps you farm and is insane in teamfights.

Mirana and Faceless void are the current OP heroes. A hero that has the ability to turn a teamfight around with itself alone, in this hyper-aggressive meta of pushing down towers after teamfights/pushing towers that force teamfights has so much value, that you'd be insane if you wanted to actually win to not pick one of them. Chrono used to be just on par, because people were so tanky because the early game was so much longer. Early game time has been cut down like 50%, from what I've seen in my bracket. That means those high value aoe stuns and nukes basically do 50% more damage, because come end of early game/early mid game is when they are their strongest (also voids bash rate is like 50%).

[Bolien]

Latest patch was basically TI6: The Nerf.

[Sometinyprick]

who hyped for doter 3

lets hope monkey king turns out to be good

might actually start playing it again if the patch is good
nothing can fix the community that plays it tho, it's only barely suffer-able when you have some friends to play with.

[Lumbermancer]

There will be 3 new heroes.

[lzimann]

Well, looks like valve pretty much ddos'd their own servers.

[Sometinyprick]

probably should have just released the notes instead of a hype countdown

[Lumbermancer]

holy fucking kek we heroes of the storm now

http://cdn.dota2.com/apps/dota2/videos/ ... ebm?talent

[lzimann]

oh man, I feel like I'm going to stop playing dota 2, from the little i've seen... the new hud, this talent tree bullshit...

[Sometinyprick]

valve just went full retard holy shit

[lzimann]

valve just went full retard holy shit

the worst part is that we can't just click revert button like when someone do a stupid ss13 update

[Kel]

monkey king prophunt is go

[Kel]

talents dont seem to be an awful idea but its very non dota-like and out of nowhere.. they seem very inconsequential but could flesh out some characters who are in a limbo of what their identity is (is abaddon a carry or support????)

[Lumbermancer]

Abaddon is whatever you want him to be. That's the difference between Dota 2 and other assfaggots.

[Kel]

Abaddon is whatever you want him to be. That's the difference between Dota 2 and other assfaggots.

he's whatever you want him to be (along with characters like venge or venomancer who can pseudo carry) but as a consequence they underpreform in every way and turn out to be mediocre characters overall because of it. usually they get relegated to perma-supports in viable meta because supports are basically walking cost-efficient items and 1-2 buttons that do something.

[lzimann]

The beauty of dota, or at least what it used to be, is that there's no "THIS HERO IS A SUPPORT AND NOTHING ELSE", instead, everything works. Now I don't know anymore.
