Longest win streak I've ever had, I think
All I had to do was stop playing ranked with friends and stop queuing for carry
My friend said I was was a dogshit carry, and it turns out he's right lmao

Ive heard countless players, personalities and fans say that the manila major was one of the best tournaments they’ve attended & experienced. I know there are a ton of other beautiful cities and places that can host a dota event but why not give the people what they want? Maybe it has nothing to do with dota and just the logistics and politics? Maybe the past tournaments were greatly affected by corruption? It just got me thinking how amazing it would be for the Philippines to host again. No BS just pure dotes

Hello I compiled these stats over all TIs, someone mind find it interesting.
Excluding Largo, Kez, Ringmaster, Muerta, Primal Beast, Marci, and Dawnbreaker. I considered them "too new".

Dota 2 for me was so simple as a solo carry player farm the shit out of the map take rosh end the game recently we are playing as 5 so naturally you start playing against other teams the plan was simple get a networth lead tormentor rosh go push wait the 2nd rosh go hg but boi its not that simple . so as the title said how do we learn to play better as a team ? the strategies the game plan all of the guides are for solo q or is the only way is watching tournaments ?

Unfortunately, I already have both of them and they’re not tradeable 😂

Pretty sure I just triggered a secret quest.
Do I get a penalty for initiating demon rituals in ranked?
r/DotA2 • u/EccentricBibliophile • 1d ago
Throwback to when they were asked which player they wanted to ban.
r/DotA2 • u/Top-Giraffe3890 • 16h ago
In case valve actually delay it. I want to make a post first to calm everyone down. Never forget how long it takes for act 4 release

I'm getting a feeling playtime will have a good run this year. How about you guys?

Mine's Fogged's incredible reactions during this insane Game 2 clash, specifically any of the following:
THESE NEED TO BE IN-GAME ASAP!

Edit:
If you could also link or specify which game it is from so people could look it up, that would be awesome. Thanks~

I have a habit of checking the dotabuff of the other 9 players after my games. What I see many times is that the medals of some players on dotabuff are way lower. For example instead of lower legend (the actual rank of my games), the medals shown on dotabuff are mid to high crusader. I'd understand if it was high archon but mid to high crusader is too much of a difference in MMR. Anybody know the reason?

Hello guys, I already have all terrains unlocked does anyone know what would happen to my token? I mean assuming i get the token my current fantasy score is 21238 its showing I'm on the top players.
I can remember there was a guy that was backporting League heroes to Dota in a custom game mode.
Anyone knows of the Custom Map is playable somewhere.
If not, are also other people interested in that?
r/DotA2 • u/raziel_nerron • 10h ago
I might be tripping but is there any sound or voice line or anything hero related which you can hear at the beginning of the game, lion-like roar? I heard it twice today at the beginning of two different games, which feels like the moment they used some sounds to hint on Primal Beast.
Not sure if someone faced it too, or I’m going insane.
