My hardest Mapo game in a while! Team was kinda heavy at the start but the Huskar (the best player among my group of regulars) started going a bit ham, I got my farm on and then we slayed! Nothing more fun than having Luna pop her BKB and Eclipse you only to shrug it off and murder the hell out of her! Also I had a pretty good self-deny when one of my Meeps got doomed! (I killed two of their team first)

That's 10 in a row Mapo wins!

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

I literally don't understand why stupid idiots even play this game.

Void and Lion safelane
Tinker mid
Doom offlane
LC jungle (don't kill me)

There, game winning lineup.

Yeah two of my last three games have been slideshows because every time I queue with new people I have to convince them us east is a lag fest right now.

 

[Aselith]

This server fail is too much 93% packet loss

What the fuck is going on.

So only US East? I can play West ok?

 

[Haunted]

This really sums up my experiences nicely

how dare you be polite

 

[Tenck]

If you're going to complain about picks, finish your match first lol.

 

[Zeth]

how dare you be polite

Actually it might be the most sinister form of trolling. I find 99% of people are either confounded by it or immediately infuriated.

USw has been going normal for me while USe is a slideshow.

 

[Sigismundo]

Why isn't Magnus played more often? I realise his laning's pretty ass.

 

[Emerson]

IMO he's a pretty worthless hero at the moment unless you're specifically drafting a wombo combo style team fight strat.

Uhhhh, what?

How is Shockwave not still awesome?

 

[Sigismundo]

Uhhhh, what?

I don't know, dude, I asked a bunch of people and everyone just said he was a shitty laner that relied on bottle crowing too much.

I think I've been rused.

 

[Razzer]

Holy shit this defense vs creeps on sing strim.

 

[Hazaro]

Magnus is a god
Shockwave is incredible
Bottle crowing is fine

 

[xanavi]

Wait hylian, did you really take, edit and post a screencap of your game while you were still playing in it? Next-level complaining.

 

[Madouu]

So only US East? I can play West ok?

yeah us west is fine.

 

[Hylian7]

Wait hylian, did you really take, edit and post a screencap of your game while you were still playing in it? Next-level complaining.

Greenshot. and multimonitors while dead. Takes less than 10 seconds.

 

[kvk1]

kvk1 server report:

US East is fubar'd.

US West is playable.

Cheers.

So when is this game getting updated? My interest in it has completely plummeted in Valve's reluctance to give us anything.

We got the mod tools, which is a HUGE fucking thing. How has Valve not given us anything?

 

[Zeth]

Can't wait for Tinker and Void to go untouched in next patch

 

[Rush2thestart]

We got the mod tools, which is a HUGE fucking thing. How has Valve not given us anything?

I'm not a modder. I want to play Dota, not mod it.

I want them to improve the experience like they promised to.

So yeah, to me, they haven't given us anything.

 

[Eleuin]

So us east is fucked for everyone still? :/

 

[Emerson]

USE was fine for me this morning, did it go bad again?

 

[manfestival]

ʕ ͡·ᴥ ͡· ʔ You've been visited by Hellbear Smasher of fortune. Clap your paws and copy paste this message 5 times without getting banned by mods and luck be with you for the next year ʕ ͡·ᴥ ͡· ʔ

 

[shira]

Apparently the lag thing is random. Some people have it and some don't.

So some really lopsided stomps are occuring.

edit: Oh shit 90-100% packet loss. Yeah that's unplayable

 

[Artanisix]

So when is this game getting updated? My interest in it has completely plummeted in Valve's reluctance to give us anything.

You're asking questions no one has the answer too. They said they were aiming for a content release at the end of August, but it's not a guarantee.

 

[Drkirby]

This look fair enough?

 

[Haunted]

Actually it might be the most sinister form of trolling. I find 99% of people are either confounded by it or immediately infuriated.

I always try to de-escalate situations and rally the team for a common objective.

Let's just say it rarely works with Russian randoms.

shira's picture on the previous page was remarkably funny because it's true material

you know like

you can play other peoples mods

that improves the experience pretty handily

honestly if youre playing this game for hot new shit instead of actual dota its probably not the right game for you

You don't have to be a modder to know that those are a huge thing. You can play custom maps. People can make ideas for the base game, maybe Valve will adopt some.

On top of that, was the International not "part of the experience"?

 

[Haunted]

though if you ask me whether I do want hot new shit yes or no


I'm probably gonna say yes.

This look fair enough?

Is this your Minecraft server? I don't understand what I'm looking at.

 

[SteveWinwood]

though if you ask me whether I do want hot new shit yes or no


I'm probably gonna say yes.

of course

everyone wants hot new shit

i would hope you play the game for the actual dota though

 

[Falk]

I've just realized I will pay a lot of money for a Meepo arcana that renamed the clones individually to Maapo, Muupo, Moopo and Miipo

And tracked the CS/K/D/A separately for each for good measure.

If we don't have patch notes tomorrow, and the Day 1 of the next update I'll cry a lot

 

[Hylian7]

Am I crazy or didn't Freakinchair's Fraud Squad already play DF5?

Lowest net worth on ffs has more than all five players of df5 combined.

 

[LiQuid!]

Sing's Meepo game went a lot like most of mine do. Shit on in the laning phase, team is losing, then suddenly 20 minutes in I have blink/aghs.

Thankfully I haven't run into too many Lich pickers. That doesn't seem very fun.

 

[Emerson]

On top of that, was the International not "part of the experience"?

Honestly I think this current patch is just really stale and boring, a lot of people seem to be really desperate for a mixup and I'd count myself among them.

I didn't feel this way at all after TI3 really. I liked where the meta was at that point.
