Hello, today I was playing Sven, the Rogue Knight. I was laning alone against Alleria, the Windrunner and Krobelus, the Death Prophet. First of all I disagreed with being solo against those heroes in the first place but whatever. Anyway, I was having some serious issues with Krobelus, the Death Prophet using her Carrion Swarm ability which sends a swarm of bats to damage her enemies dealing 100/175/250/300 damage with a radius of 110-300 to harass me, as well as Alleria, the Windrunner using her Power Shot ability which causes her to charge a bow shot which deals increasing amounts of damage (120/200/280/360 maximum) depending on how long she charges it and the amount of units it passes through. With all the harass, I could never enter the lane and ran out of consumables very quickly (I am referring to Ancient Tangos of Essifation, and Healing Salves). What can I do about this?
>>
i kinda miss facets actually
there were a lot of silly options in there for ruining games and while i would never ruin a game myself it feels as though we've lost something through the deletion of time zone and reverse reverse polarity and the windrunner talent that made her ult funny
oh and some heroes just got to keep all their facets by having them be baked into their innate which feels bad, like the playable hero whitelist got more explicit or something

I had a dream that I played this game but I've never even been in an actual match, just have watched a few videos in the past out of curiosity. Should I actually get into this game? Is it in a decent state? I'm used to dealing with south americans and I'm not new to MOBAs so I can deal with the shitty, laggy retards and I'm not intimidated by the seemingly great barrier of entry, all I want to know is if it could all be worth it in the end.

What the fuck are you talking about, I just got out of my first game on Marci, got one of my teammates killed because I took him with me with my second spell because for some reason alt cast became perma enabled. How many resident schizos do you have? I recognize the hoodwink dude from the deadlock threads.

position 4s made me quit being an offlaner.
it feels abyssmal when they don't block or contest the pulls of the pos 5 and just leech xp off you and then farm the worst items imaginable that help no one. Position 4s are out to tilt me everygame

It's unbelievable how, even though I'm 7-0 (at the 10-minute mark) in the mid lane with three TPs coming in to stop me, I still lose because my team decided to pick Alchemist “Offlane” (buying Scepters), a hard support Axe, and a support Spirit Breaker.
No initiation, no support, and with a team that’s currently playing to fight and win the mid-game, the blame ends up falling on the Kez in mid lane (me) for not having farm and not dominating, even though my team stayed AFK farming items of absolutely no consequence, Axe with a Blink Dagger at the 25-minute mark, and the enemy team currently gathering to fight.
But it’s my fault, according to my safe-lane sniper, who’s complaining that I don’t have farm—even though I was constantly ambushed in my own jungle because I didn’t have sentry wards, and I was the only one trying to play.
It’s impossible to go 1v5 in this game. I just gave up and went AFK. If I win, good—I deserve this shitty win. It’s not my fault my teammates are Peruvian shitskins playing from internet cafes.
>>
>>563363031
>Check accounts on my team
>all without any games or personal stuff shown, just a generic steam profile picture and a name
literal peruvian internet cafe accounts. (I know this for a fact because the shitskin on the mic had people typing and yelling in the background)
why do I even waste my time on this shitty game anymore.

A magical dotard genie has given you the ability to learn 1 (one) dota spell in real life. Cooldowns are 1 day per second at max level, and the mana cost is roughly proportional to how terrible you feel for a few hours after casting. (Quills is like a mild sinus ache, mystic flare is like the worst hangover you've ever experienced).
What are you taking and why?

Is it still worth it to start in 2026? On the one hand this game seems to still be massive, being the second largest game on steam. But on the other it seems like there's no new players.
I wanted to play Deadlock but my PC is too trash for it. And I'm not playing League.

played with a lvl 30 dark willow who was a girl according to her profile (and her having 1k something games with one single guy who's higher ranked than her according to stratz also aligns with it) and she was dooooogshiiiiiiit. One of those pos4 who, once everyone has left the lane, stays there and idly hit creeps. the most botted gameplay i've ever seen. no playmaking, no warding, nothing, just standing there on lane a-clicking creeps. made me sick to my core

I have this problem where I win games but my teammates are so shit that at the end of every game I call them trash subhuman dogs that should kiss my feet for the free boost. A hard support that purchased a total of 4 sentries for the entirety of the game, a pos1 slark that lost against a solo offlane pudge and then continued to farm jungle all game, a treant protector that doesn't know he can heal towers. NO I will not remain calm, these filthy dogs deserve to be reminded they are worthless scum.

Crownfall arcanas have always been available on the market. The ones that matter are the battle pass ones and you'll need to wait.

>>563433760
Crownfall had a lot of items release but most of them you can resell so they're freely available on the market (some are not). Meanwhile for Arcanas I think only the ones released in the 2010s with every yearly battle pass can be sold on the market and the most recent ones can't be sold by other players, nor gifted etc. Other dotards say they'll re-release them over time but I don't know about waiting until 2032 for Razor or Void's Arcana honestly

I just can't get any better, my muscle memory and game habits are from over a decade ago when the game was different. You can't 1v9 anymore and killing people solo is much more difficult. I still sometimes look in enemies inventories to see if they're not carrying a TP but everyone has one now.

personally id have gone for an early diffu since their team has a collective 74 mana. this also removes the need for linkens in most cases which lets you flex into something more aggressive since you were already ahead
>>
>>563484584
Never really got the need for diffusal on Slark. But I like Octarine because it gives good mana regen and that's what Slark needs... in my opinion, of course. I'm pretty low rank. I will admit Linkin's was unnecessary. We were already hitting their ancient when I bought it.
>>
>>563484747
youre an agi hero against a team with pitiful mana, its a shoe-in really. id also have gotten an orchid since half of their team has spells with incredibly obvious windups (requiem, tree ult, dismember, doom, etc etc) and bloodthorne shits on pa. not to sit here and critique your choices of course, just pitching in my two cents

To be fair Windows issues would be just as annoying were you not indoctrinated into using it from your literal childhood. It's pretty unfair to compare a new experience with something you've worked on for 20 years, not to mention that most Windows solutions are easy because the difficult ones can be resumed into "cant fix, nuke the partition then reinstall".

id like it if tortedelini never made another guide again and instead guides were made by people who like the hero
i mean is that weird? i know there's only like 40 people max playing dota at any given time but like there has to be enough players for their to be a pango guy and a lich guy and a wk guy who are each 9k mmr and can talk about what their hero builds, right?
>>
>>563506606
torte de lini compiles the common item & skill builds from d2pt so the guides are not as bad as people say, he's just hated because he's like 4k mmr but he's more of an archivist than anything else. the issue with guides is more people blindly following them rather than judging what item to buy depending on the state of the game theyre in, this isnt a torte de lini problem but a guide as a whole problem

Does behavior score even do anything apart from restricting your chat privileges? I think it does absolutely nothing in terms of matchmaking apart from notifying dota plus users that the game might have disruptive behavior.

Guys can we please take it easy with the racism? My father was part black part cherokee part mexican and my mother was part thai, part japanese, part philipina and I don't think it's really fair for all of you pure blooded Whites to continue harassing and condescending to us. Yes, you're right, we don't have the heritage, culture, or history that you do and I know that our entire civilization is built on your stolen intellectual property and if it wasn't for you'd we all be eating dirt and each other still and it's also true that a White man created this game but that doesn't mean we can't be equals right? I get enough harassment from my family and social circle for being brown and trans, please don't let that spill over into d2g, this thread should be for everyone.

Can you faggots stop entertaining the literal turbo only basement dweller /pol/fag of mysterious racial origin? Or at least ask for a hand picture first? You're not going to win against a 40yo 100 hour/week neet when it comes to shitposting. It's always an american who looks like the untermensch poster, it's literally pointless to talk with him.
Also to the faggot in question, I've pretty much regex filtered all your favorite autismo powerwords, I just see the random replies that aren't quoting you so don't bother.

I don't really like you guys discrediting my octarine core slark build. I got it from reddit, but, even so, I think it's a lot stronger than the traditional slark builds. Slark doesn't need stats. He doesn't need bash. He doesn't need slow items. He literally has them all in his kit already. Pretty much the only time Slark dies is when his ult is on cooldown. And with octarine it cuts the time between ult activations to 15 seconds.

Are you a whining piece of shit? I do the same thing with a friend of mine. Dude cries over everything, if he misses a creep, if he thinks something is overpowered, if he's losing, if he's not winning hard enough, if he's winning too hard, if someone steals his kill, if someone roams, if someone doesn't roam, if the game lags, if someone elses courier dies, if his courier dies, if the enemy courier dies, you name it he's crying over it.
I'd rather play with randoms, he's not even good.

Because this game doesn't have a functional punishment system.
There are no bans, no time outs, nothing.
also the role queue tokens systems is fucking stupid and should be removed, but valve doesnt give a shit.
people do whatever the hell they want, its pointless.
It works in other games because their roles are much more defined but in Dota it doesnt, because of how people tend to bend the rules with their hero, and because there is complete lack of punishment for not doing the role you queued for.

UL can essentially spam his queue though and with cleave/bfury he was legitimately a raid boss. I played him for the first time in years the other day and still pulled 12 kills. Zeus's shard doesn't synergize with a caster kit at all, if you want to be good with it you have to basically use a right click build.

theres no laning phase to speak of, no mid game timing, no trade of resources, only late game scaling matters. (there are some early stomps, but w/e)

>>563567553
The laning phase exists but it's just not as punitive because recovery mechanics are insane. I just won a game where we had a vengeful spirit die like 20 times, and half of those were before 15 min. In a normal game that would be enough to keep us down but in turbo we (largely me babysitting a LS and Muerte as Zeus) were able to come back without too much trouble. Boomermode is aids to me because bad players can get you locked into a 60 minute loss. In turbo an assbeating is over relatively quickly, and mistakes are more punitive in late game.
Also in normal rarely if ever do you get fully six slotted, in turbo you actually have to use and get comfortable using all of your keybinds.
>>
>>563571780
The problem with turbo is the game isn't balanced around it at all, there are certain heroes that can break a game wide fucking open with a couple of items (Warlock, Huskar, Zeus) and other heroes who become a fucking menace with like 4+ items (drow, sniper, muerte).

>Boomermode is aids to me because bad players can get you locked into a 60 minute

>>
>>
>>563573131
This happens in Turbo too, I just lost a game as axe and I went 19/6/9, the other team was all carries, and turbo mechanics allowed them to get their items despite me hard camping them all game and all my stupid shit colored moron teammates couldn't compensate.

Dota is not Dota anymore.
My Opinion: NuDota is complete trash
BUT
My Advice: NuDota still might be the best game you have ever played.
This game had great human enjoyment/experiences that not a lot of games offered.
It might still have it but to a lower level than what i was used to.

I can't believe how balanced this game is, you go play ranked and the same 10 heroes are picked in rotation constantly, literally no other heroes are picked other than them, it doesn't matter how many matches you've played you are constantly playing against the exact same heroes and if not then it's some low life that has found the cheesiest hero in the game to win mmr with. It's like, icefrog, could you even do a better job? I don't think he could, the game is really balanced right now.
>>
>>
>>563601450
For me the greatest doomkino is someone with rank 30 and 700 games on Tinker and Arch Warden that's still Legend III. Like bro you're telling me you've been playing this shit for a decade and this is your plateau?
These people basically exist to completely kill the joy of someone that wants to try out a new hero in mid. Making him think that "experimenting" is not viable and he should stick to his guns, the aforementioned 10 heroes everyone picks. It's a vicious cycle.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>563603065
Storm mid has 48% wr on d2pt while SF mid (not carry you monkey, mid) has 46%. From your syntax it's very clear that you're brown so you don't really get it and it's fine but there's a clear different in terms of timing and macro between having a spirit hero mid who can rotate from lvl 6 onwards and SF which needs farm to have impact. At your MMR this doesnt matter I guess
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>563607632
so in other words you're observing that you're having approximately a 50% winrate? and the game is reinforcing this winrate by giving you bad players when you're about to go above a 50% winrate? this phenomenon needs a name and further study

no I accept losses when the drafts made sense and they just played better but there is a pattern of a series of griefers picking useless heroes and ruining games whenever I get close to 52% wr. and I also acknowledge that when I win there was great harmony with my teammates and each did our part. your strawman doesnt work on me you angry little muppet

i was looking through the core aa guides and found one that says max chilling touch and then max vortex without putting ANY points in feet until 9 and honestly that might be the way
