rumors of og poaching an sa player, likely wisper

mc to og is really unlikely so probably ceb 4

fear my blitz knuckles into mask of madness build

why dota before sunrise is a bad idea

surreal plinth

rigid dawn
#

We were losing so badly

#

They had bara and necrophos

#

Once I got my linkens i could so freely farm and show up in lanes

#

and man is spellblock sharing with bad juju cd reduction soooo goood

#

Whoosh, your ult is now on a 100 second cooldown and it did absolutely nothing

#

It was so funny when the bara actually chaged me when linkins was off cooldown and was struggling to kill me off since linkens blocked his ult and next charge and i causually regened from 1hp to 50% due to a creep wave

#

And offlane lion well went on a roll, 2 FOD 3k's and guy was literally building a full core lion build

#

and yeah bad juju armour reduction with 8 stacks and lion spike = alot of aoe damage for a low cooldown spell.
Effectively a slightly nerfed aghs FOD

increasing your resolution doesnt scale the ui

making the big decision of switching the side the minimap is on.

this is the way.

yay

#

on the bright side my mid opponents have become so incompetent that even as sf they got 3-0ed in lane

surreal plinth
#

you should have mcoms take over your account for a math that would be very funny i think

rigid dawn

pretty sure the first match i played with her was either a omniknight or a spectre carry

that was her first mistake

they are rumored to take atf, miracle and sumail

the rumor for falcon is SMACS (sumail, miracle, atf, crit?, sneyking?)

There is also this pudge in this game im in

rigid dawn
#

My dota games either go
A. I just casually stomp my mid lane and then get kills upon kills
B. I stomp the mid lane for a while and then have to fight 2v1 mid and get destroyed

#

A has two outcomes
A.a Teammates decide to farm and don't push with me and we lose by enemy comeback cause I get ganked when attempting to solo push
A.b Teamamtes join me in pushing and we end the game in <35mins

The number of times we start a teamfight and my frontlines just magically disappear and I die is just stupid
and by disappear i don't mean they die

#

they are either
A. Turning into the courier rather than using one
B. Chasing around a BB at enemy fountain while I soloing the enemy cores alone at their tier 3 towers
C. Killing one person and decide "Oh no!! The other lane isn't pushed let me quickly TP out and push it. Totally what I should do as the Pos 1 team carry"

solid oxide
#

been watching replays.

#

honestly not sure what im meant to see, i should probably look into loss outcome replays

polar marten
#

You are simply blind then. Consider watching replays of others.

solid oxide
#

im not watching my own replays. i have nothing to learn from myself

glass thornBOT
#

*im not watching my

own replays. i have nothing

to learn from myself*

solid oxide
#

my brain hasnt developed in that kind of way. alright.

#

gotta look at others

rigid dawn
#

any match you want curated ig

solid oxide
#

you have nothing to learn from me

#

my knowledge of the game comes purely from a lot of trivia

rigid dawn
#

no ill ask someone and tell what you did wrong ig

solid oxide
#

oh

rigid dawn
#

if you want

solid oxide
#

i guess

rigid dawn
#

i have friends in legend

solid oxide
#

i guess ill keep that in mind

#

i mean

#

i have a friend who played with ee before

#

never asked him

#

hey youre right i should be doing that

#

genius

rigid dawn
#

i mean they have been playing dota for nearly a decade

#

if its anyone they can give you advise

#

so yeah give me a match id and replay ill ask

#

somewhere where you feel you did everything right and lost

#

or you lost so bad and you want to know how to fix that

solid oxide
#

tbh before i always kinda thought i was doing things right and noticed a lot of mistakes my teammates were making but lately ive been doing general misplays

#

gained a few bad habits lately i suppose

#

something changed in my brain

rigid dawn
#

The current behviour score system by Valve has mostly been a failure. Is this a agreeable point

solid oxide
#

no

rigid dawn
#

Okay why do you say no?

solid oxide
#

theres nothing that makes me think otherwise

#

try and change my mind

rigid dawn
#

What is your behaviour score?

#

Okay does matter what your score is

#

Point is I have a behaviour score of 12000

#

Oon average I have one person on my team role abusing every game. I state on average since on some games I have upto 3 people role abusing on the same team

#

And its not like these players are new they have hundreds to thousands of games under their belt

#

And this is ignoring the number of toxic people I generally meet who are not only toxic but go OUT of their way to greif their teammates for the slightest mistakes teammates make

#

Which is basically one every other game

solid oxide
#

11k+

rigid dawn
#

So do you really think that me at the maximum possible behaviour score should be having such teammates?

solid oxide
#

i cant get a perfect 12k but

#

its been getting slightly higher

rigid dawn
#

I dropped to around 4k before climbing back to 12k in no time

solid oxide
#

it seems

#

i dont know

rigid dawn
#

It is not poor luck

#

Even my brother told that

solid oxide
#

personally i very rarely have genuine griefers

rigid dawn
#

Until he started spectating my games

solid oxide
#

it could be a regional difference

rigid dawn
#

But imho the behaviour score system could have been so much better

solid oxide
#

notice how all the games we play in party are in weu, you dont see many genuine griefers

#

its not perfect but i think for a mainteance mode game it works fine

#

maintenance

#

fuck this word

rigid dawn
#

its just ranked games

#

hmmm

solid oxide
#

well

solid oxide
#

it depends

#

on what u consider griefing

#

do u consider ur pos4 mirana building maelstrom aghs griefing

rigid dawn
#

blatent role abuse?

solid oxide
#

yea i guess its a bit more common if u include that

polar marten
#

no. carry

rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

my definition of griefing personally is ruining the game to spite your own teammates

rigid dawn
#

i don't want to waste a slot to carry dust or spend time dewarding jungles so i can do my role in peace

solid oxide
#

while building maelstrom aghs as pos4 mirana is still griefing, i just call it being selfish

rigid dawn
#

which most of their role abusers dont

#

tasks such as pulling, collecting lotuses and bounties, warding, rotating and securing mid runes etc

solid oxide
#

average sea game

rigid dawn
#

they dont do such tasks and simply sit in lane contesting last hits with the carry

rigid dawn
#

you don't know how much i fall in love when i see a support rotate to mid when they see me having a bad lane

#

fucking take the gold from the kill now i can actually lane in peace

snow ruin
#

i ahve 12k score constantly

#

and always i see

#

toxic people

#

every 10 mtaches

rigid dawn
#

my point being that the score system is bad and broken

#

it was good at the start

snow ruin
#

behavior score: very simimlar

solid oxide
#

dota falls short in communicative toxicity most tbh

#

but bleh

rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

if i cant deal with ppl i mute.

rigid dawn
rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

if you mean like

#

gameplay ruining toxicity

#

regional difference. stop playing sea

#

putang ina

rigid dawn
#

i should actualy do that sometime

solid oxide
#

weu smurf

rigid dawn
#

go to europian server and find avg racist player who keeps typing indian swears trying to be smart

#

only if i could swear back and they understood 🙂

solid oxide
#

i like to save flame until game ends

#

i would rather not challenge my own teammates and risk them going down mid

rigid dawn
#

yeah

#

idk i have a way to make the behaviour score system better

#

or probably my method is trash idk

solid oxide
#

email valve

rigid dawn
#

the method is complicated that's all

solid oxide
#

if they dont respond, email again after a year

rigid dawn
#

basically its now as one dimensional as the current behaviour score

solid oxide
#

idk i just think it works fine even with its setbacks

rigid dawn
#

I don't think so

#

If you look at my games you will understand strongly

solid oxide
#

well in terms of gameplay

#

region issue

rigid dawn
#

Region/Rank

#

Its probably more of a rank issue

#

why do you think people with 10k games are stuck in herald

#

on the bring side my 70% winrate will get me out of here in no time

solid oxide
#

im waiting.

rigid dawn
#

went from 200 mmr to 550 in 2 weeks

#

and in those two weeks i learnt 2 new heroes

solid oxide
#

its not a rank issue

#

this never stops even if ur top 5,000 immortal

rigid dawn
#

if i just grinded bara/necro/dazzle i would have probably been in guardian by now

solid oxide
#

its just a constant of life

rigid dawn
#

like i literally posted here

#

one sec

solid oxide
#

actually the higher u get the more u get people breaking items

#

no gif on tenor of shadow fiend breaking items

rigid dawn
#

3 games back to back

solid oxide
#

herald issue

#

recalibrate

#

play on weu

#

get gains.

#

or learn to play safelane

rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

very unfortunate

#

easiest way to get to 2k

#

is to just spam safelane

#

and farm

rigid dawn
#

i originally calibrated straight into guardian after first 10 wins

solid oxide
#

after u get to 2k u need to start using your brain

#

been struggling with that one

rigid dawn
#

hitting the recalibrate button has been the biggest mistake in my dota career

#

i literally hit 1000mmr in the first 100 hours of dota

rigid dawn
#

solid oxide
#

no. dont

rigid dawn
#

0 external interaction

solid oxide
#

just spam jugg

#

jugg, meet cask

rigid dawn
#

i prefer mid due to easier interactions

#

lesser problems to deal with

#

don't need to ask my support to pull every minute

solid oxide
#

bara charging mid:

rigid dawn
#

cause for some reason he wont

rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

on mid???

rigid dawn
#

i destroy my lanes and proceed to destroy enemy lanes

rigid dawn
#

lemme see

solid oxide
#

i mean

#

it could kind of work

#

u get phase, bottle, wand, midas

#

then octarine and do whatever else u want to do

rigid dawn
#

after aghs you itemize based on ame

solid oxide
#

yatoro?

rigid dawn
#

its mostly silver edge in current meta due to how useful break is

solid oxide
#

open your mind

#

that at one point he wasted 3 ults to kill me back to back

solid oxide
#

does anyone have that one video of a guy chronosphering his own team and one of his teammates is just screaming "what a fucking chrono, this is the worst fucking chrono ever"

#

while his team dies

#

ty xoxo

#

cant find it

snow ruin
#

its a nightmare

#

dota is a nightmare

#

its not opendota fault

rigid dawn
#

ahh i see

rigid dawn
#

i like challenges and destroying my mental state trying to fix shit

snow ruin
#

linux user mentality

rigid dawn
#

i have a fully functional linux laptop for a year now

#

stopped fixing issues a long while back

snow ruin
#

i hope opendota will be fully functional soon too.

rigid dawn
#

hopefully using the term man doesn't offend you

solid oxide
#

i call her dude all the time i dont think shes bothered

rigid dawn

cool

snow ruin

im very offended im gonna die

rigid dawn

@rigid dawn how fix bad internet connexion while using proton? ..

rigid dawn
#

unaware of such an interaction

polar marten
rigid dawn
#

like i am unaware of anything much related to networking in wine

polar marten
rigid dawn
#

oh yeah

polar marten
#

anyway very much not care i dont play this game what is dota even

rigid dawn
#

thats not a internet issue

#

thats a dotat issue

#

unaware of what is causing it

#

anw imma go eat and prolly buy a new aux cable

#

my current one's brok

rigid dawn
#

i wanna cry

#

this just keeps working

#

this idiot made the game into defense of the rapiers

#

at one point the enemy lc had 1.5k damage

solid oxide
#

undocumented

#

i think these nerfs are fine

#

grim is still not dogwater

#

tbh i dont think hes going to be bad as long as you can manually trigger ink swell

#

being able to time his stun better and have a better grace period for it immediately made him stop being bad

#

his stun was a bit awkward to use

#

plus the extra duration on it helps a lot because

#

the stun duration is based on how long the unit affected by ink swell before it blows up has been near the enemy unit

#

it deals damage over time before blowing up so it cancels blinks

#

also the shard giving a guaranteed immediate hard dispel is like

#

busted

#

thats also sometihng that makes grim really reliable too

#

i think if they gave ink swell a manual activation delay even by like 0.5s, it would severely make him worse

rigid dawn
#

12 hours of dota hurts

#

brain and hands

solid oxide
#

i think taking a break from the game or playing something else would be most smart

rigid dawn
#

i mean i had a mostly good session today

#

8 wins 3 losses

solid oxide
#

besides the point i think maybe

rigid dawn
#

had a terrible loss just now

solid oxide
#

2 hour break trollfig

rigid dawn
#

brain function reduced to 0

polar marten
rigid dawn
#

i have clocked in >600 hours of dota in <5months

#

Or more precisely 601.7 hours of dota in 143days

#

4.2 hours of dota per day

#

but out of them only 429 hours were actually in a match

#

Which averages to perfectly 3 hours of dota gameplay a day excluding arcade

DUDE IM FUCKING TIRED

#

This is the third game in a row people are fighting for the mid lane in my role queue games

#

Why can't people like normal people farm role queue games and then play whatever role they want to

Like I select mid

#

And then there are two other people my pos3 and 4 fighting for mid

#

I just left and abandoned that game

#

I'm tired of this bullshit

idk i really cannot play anymore my game sense is like

#

i think ill not play for a bit

#

never felt so disoriented while playing this gmae

#

no worse feeling than losing touch with a game you really really like

what fortnite will do to an mf...

solid oxide
#

its not fortnite

#

i simply need a good break.

#

its a pretty fun game though

snow ruin
#

if i dont play dota constantly i start to get disoriented

solid oxide
#

i think ill check the game out again when frostivus comes around

#

and i might ask a friend to help out

#

sure i can one trick and carry myself to 3k by spamming dark willow mid but thatd make me feel like i cheated the system without learning anything

polar marten
#

you definitely arent learning anything by playing against enemies with higher rating

snow ruin
#

focus on one role you wanna play and get good at

autobattlers never clicked for me

they talk a lot about how you should be able to tell from a glance when an item is equipped and whatnot

# solid oxide what do u guys think about lion shard blink in

Here's the full post as a copypasta:

80% magic resist and immunity, its like old bkb without cd. drains from multiply targets from miles away. slows them more than skadi.

i almost never buy ags or things like that. just ather lens, dagger, shard into plate mails and raw hp. i jump at middle of 5 man and just drain them. they either panic and use all spells on me or they try to stay and right click me but ive got 3k hp and 20 armor. they quickly run out of mana and have to force bkb or go back. my team can easily take the fight.

hell, if they have too much physical just buy ghost scepter and you are literally immune. stop rushing ags its useless tbh

#

____
But yeah your only hope is enemy doesn't have armour reduction stuff or crits

#

else you are pretty fucked

solid oxide
#

i was serious you guys

just woke up to see my post has turn into copy pasta, i didnt say the hero is broken i said the shard itself is broken and beyond 1400 gold value. and you don't 1v5 with lion by any means, most of the times i die doing that but in expanse of enemy losing all their mana and spells and bkb.

rigid dawn
#

idk its truly not thaaat op

#

lots of ways to counter it

#

it is not and never was a strat to initiate

#

you initiate with that you you will practically delete yourself

solid oxide
#

ok but if u buy 2 platemails

#

or ghost scepter

#

u never die

rigid dawn

5 man succ

#

its why i took a break from the game

#

hej ust jumps in

#

sucks my entire team

#

wtf do id o

#

i panic i cast all my spells on him

rigid dawn
#

also stop reminding me about how fun dota is

#

every time i stop playing this game i am reminded about how fun it is

#

and few seconds later the game is magically running in the backgroujnd

solid oxide
#

oh what i wouldnt do to have your childlike joy and enthusiasm for the game

#

i can play it but i will end up upsetting myself and it wont be worth it

rigid dawn
#

you gotta stop looking at the game from a winning the game perspective

solid oxide
#

no

#

i just need to refresh my brain

#

i need a fresh mindset

#

and some time away

rigid dawn
#

you playing l4d2 😳

solid oxide
#

yes

#

i tihnk

rigid dawn
#

we should play l4d2 sometimes

#

solid oxide
#

i need to simply

#

forget how to play

#

so i can learn again

rigid dawn
#

lets play realism and shout at each other for greifing

solid oxide
#

because i think i learnt wrong

#

and being absent from the game is a good enough way for me to achieve that i think

#

i am not the initiator

#

i do not poke

#

oh

#

dont delete messages you make me look bad

High variance game

#

a general pain climbing ranked

#

most of the time it doesn't seem what i do early game as a mid laner, how many ganks i do, how hard i destroy my mid laner

#

whether we win or not is completely random

#

games where i perform really well we loose and games where i dont also we loose

#

painful

solid oxide
#

not really

#

about like 70% of ur games are winnable solo in low rank

#

the thing that helps you the most is usually just farming and farm efficiency

#

farm farm farm

#

that being said i understand your struggle

#

i suggest taking a break

rigid dawn
#

i fixate on things

rigid dawn
solid oxide
#

actually i forgot ppl tend to smurf a lot

#

look. idk. i will have advice when i return.

there is nothing for me to say currently.

rigid dawn
#

Marci is a rather strong core and fun to play mid with

solid oxide
#

yknow

#

dota could use an og season

#

just saying!

#

kinda feels like theres too many things in the game

#

i wouldn't be surprised if they were still updating theyd bring back composite and universal damage lol

polar marten
#

league is more like fortnite in that fashion.

solid oxide
#

nooo

#

fortnite is fun

#

league isnt

#

rather incomparable

#

idk maybe its just the meta being very lame

#

i dont even want to watch the tournament that's going on now

#

literally same patch

polar marten
#

please read my message again

how do u know

#

u wanna queue league?

Hence they struggle agaist an OD

polar marten
#

yes... yes...

rigid dawn
#

Half the game I was loosing my mind due to the pressure

#

And the overflowing pile of gold I had

#

Didn't know to itemize for shit

solid oxide
#

i like od pos3

rigid dawn
#

this game is too high variance in its match making and match outcome

#

At one moment I was like yeah this match is going to shit even though i destroyed the mid laner

#

Since PA disconnected and I had no hope of staying alive when the enemy team targets me

#

And next moment Im just getting team wipes and godlike

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

snow ruin
#

bro

#

i got matched against divine and ancients

#

my team was archons and legends

#

so fucking bad just feed all game

#

i hate unranked matchmaking tbh, is ranked any better lmao

solid oxide
#

the thing about ranked is that basically

#

its reasonable to expect that people will try not to lose

#

if im playing unranked i can dc the game to run to the store and buy some soda and run back to my house and reconnect just in time

#

that and im pretty sure even though there is unranked mmr, the unranked experience is way more high variance

#

personal experience atleast

#

that and, average turbo experience

solid oxide
#

i guess esl is the only thing thatll keep dota going

#

for atleast until after next ti

#

...should i do a better one?

#

also "legion commander is racist" no shes just a warmonger

#

her husband is a satyr for gods sake

#

wc3 legion commander now THAT guy was racist

#

and she killed him

#

io doesnt even have 0 turn rate anymore

#

these are not true fans

surreal plinth
solid oxide
#

okay but its a satyr

#

theres arguably a bigger gap in racial difference between a human and a satyr

#

and a human and a human

#

this claim is probably from her "dont trust an x" lines

surreal plinth
#

yeah but its all relative

solid oxide
#

shes not racist i maintain my claim

#

shes imperialistic but not racist

surreal plinth
#

if we had satyrs irl you would have white supremacists marry them

solid oxide
#

no i think thered be race wars

surreal plinth
#

these are ok entries

i hate icebergs where they just straight up lie

like actually come up with shit not even like a hoax

thats how deep the iceberg goes

this shit is so dumb thats it

#

im making my own iceberg

#

this is like first grade doter iceberg

#

the very first entry im going to be putting in is

"slacks & gabe elevator ride"

#

also if youre going to be putting in lore entries u better fucking not forget about underlords, artifact and even the shitty show

look

#

i watched it for like

#

i watched the first two books

#

all of them exactly when they came out

#

when book 3 came out

#

i didnt give a shit

#

it took me like a month to start watching it

#

i saw like two episodes and was done

#

it was like

#

it was fuckin

#

i was bored to tears man

#

like i cant fucking believe

#

they made a show about dragons

#

we were robbed

#

we were fucking robbed

#

they couldve made a show about

#

we were genuinely so robbed im sad

surreal plinth
#

show about pudge

snow ruin
solid oxide
#

@zenith kite game is alive g

#

were so back

#

so basically what theyve implied so far is:

#
  • santa is real and he gives but also takes away
  • the nemesis curse (gameplay mechanic?)
  • the whisper of dread (no idea)
  • the moonlight tiara (item)
  • implied the return of older, removed items
  • more new items/mechanics
  • changes made to orb of corrosion, arcane boots, bloodthorn and more
  • removed ring of aquila, titan sliver, penta-edged sword, quickening charm and quarterstaff
  • tormentor and roshan get new abilities

i assume the model on the thumbnail is going to be used for neutral drops during frostivus

i do hope they wont kill midas too much though

i like that the concept of buying midas on a support isnt griefing

usually

i mea

#

i guess they wont

#

they didnt last time

#

same goes for heart and all the other things

#

@solid oxide are you actually expecting a real balance patch made by real people

#

🔍

solid oxide
#

why do you have to bring it all down like that 😭

#

they wouldnt post this if there wouldnt be a patch right???

snow ruin
#

yeah but

solid oxide
#

i dont care if ai made the patch

snow ruin
#

no

#

like

solid oxide
#

as long as its a patch

#

the last patch was literally nothing

snow ruin
#

okay so you just want the game to be changed

#

doesnt matter if its meaningless slop

solid oxide
#

not for the sake of being changed

#

IT IS MEANINGLESS SLOP NOW

#

and im praying

#

that the patch will set it right

#

atleast in some way

#

it has to right

#

like theres no way
