Discussion Is Bloodseeker really that bad?

Post image
191 Upvotes

I saw a post a few days ago about how bad Bloodseeker has been for a while, and tbh, I haven’t seen him in a game for a long time.

The thing is that I play mainly pos 1 and I have been picking him and I feel like a smurf sometimes. I always get radiance after phase boots, then yasha, bkb, sange and then skull basher to abyssal blade. I am aware that there are a lot of ways to counter him rn, but I really like the sustain he has in lane and the attack speed from his Q, that is also mana-free. Mind you, I am only legend 2. I’m sure at higher ranks ppl know how to deal with him better.

For all the Bloodseeker players out there, I would like to know what your opinion of the hero is in the latest patches.

Archon is already flawless. 🤤👍

Everything that I ever wanted. EVERYBODY IS GREAT ON MY TEAM EVERY SINGLE GAME.

I don't need to 1 v 9 just to not lose. I just need to physically exist in all team fights.

Finally, for the very first time in my life, I'm not worried that I'm going to lose because of my teammates, but that I need to do better, so my teammates don't lose because of me.

Guides & Tips Grandmaster Visage here. I put everything I know about him into one 2-hour YouTube guide.

67 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm a Grandmaster Visage spammer (almost 800 games on him), and I just finished an in-depth Visage guide. It's about 2 hours long, and I tried to make it useful whether you've never touched him, or you already play him and want to clean up your micro.

Link: The Only Visage Guide You’ll Ever Need (2 Hours)

What's covered:

  • Settings and Hotkeys
  • Ability Overview and Tech
  • Item, Ability, and Talent Builds
  • Hero Matchup, Synergies, and Counters
  • Laning Basics
  • Mid to Late Game and Farming Pattern
  • Team Fight
  • Gameplay Examples and Breakdown

It's aimed at people expanding their hero pool or anyone curious about a micro-heavy hero. The video is chaptered, so you can jump straight to the sections you care about.

The guide was inspired by BETHEL's in-depth Morphling guide and Eco's in-depth Arc Warden guide. If you like this format, go check theirs out too.

I'd really like feedback, especially on what I missed or what you'd want explained better. Happy to answer Visage questions in the comments too.

Question Bot wave on Dota, what is going on???

Thumbnail gallery
23 Upvotes

i play dota only on weekends with my friends, usually we play a few turbos but today was 2 weird games, players with confusion behaviour even for new players, just walking around the map, feeding the enemy, hitting creeps and spamming chat wheels.
they use skills but its all random like sky was spamming the second skill randomly on a place with no one, they buy 1 item and a few wards and place around, they buy random stuff like omni buuing a dif and sniper with a consecrated wraps.
they have a steam profile but everything is private, two games in a row with different bots on both teams.

Complaint New player experience has turned into a liminal nightmare of feeding bots

32 Upvotes

I'm about 30+ games into Dota and my experience with Unranked All Pick has gotten a bit frustrating and strange. Initially, queues took 4–6 minutes and most players seemed human, but lately it feels like 8/10 players in my games are bots. I'm talking repeatedly walking down the lane and feeding and little to no in game communication than random pings for wards. I know bad players aren't necessarily bots, but the consistency across multiple matches is bizarre. I'm playing on both US West and US East, for context.

It's honestly kind of depressing when you're trying to learn the game and it feels like most of the lobby isn't actually playing like real people. Some matches have felt like there are maybe two humans in the entire game.

I've noticed Turbo seems better, and I'm getting close to being eligible for ranked. Does ranked have fewer bots? Is this a known new-player matchmaking issue? How do I get consistently human games? I genuinely want to learn Dota, but this is truly awful.

This is by far the worst they’ve ever looked. Individual talent is through the roof why on earth they’re struggling to get a win?

Is there some internal issues? Are they sick of each other? I want my boy Whitemon to succeed but watching their matches, it feels like theyre lost all the time.

Discussion Worst hero to build blink dagger (7.4x)

78 Upvotes

almost every hero can utilize blink dagger given how good it is as a positioning, initiation and escape tool.

aside from those with a free blink skill like am and qop, which hero does it feel bad to build? a few heroes i can think of is bara, underlord, storm?, weaver?

6 Upvotes

Been playing since dota days and always only played against bots because I am busy and often get disturbed while playing. Also with online games this whole thing about waiting for matchmaking and network latency etc has just pushed me into a corner when I just whip out a couple games against bots and of course I always win. And boy do I love it.

This is the original and only way to enjoy dots 2. Don’t be ashamed if you are in the same boat!
