"Oh cool, Valve made a ne-"

>almost half the people on Dota 2 at any given moment are just in Auto Chess customs
lmao. the game was already dying, like 80k concurrent usually

insects are prolific breeders

It was originally for chinks, because hivemind and all. Then took over basedboys for flavor of the month insult before dying out. Do pretend to lurk before posting.

>die-hard fanbase
Why does the ''die-hard fanbase'' think Valve owes them something?

Valve doesn't give a fuck. They release this shit to cater to the e-sport streamer faggot crowd. Meanwhile the VR teams are hard at work with the Index coming out next week and upcoming titles in the works.

I don't why people still get their hopes up when it comes to valve.
All their good devs left years ago, all they do nowadays is trying to milk as much money as they can from their fans with the least amount of innovation possible.

Because their fanbase is more than willing to give them a fuck ton of money. HL3 is more than guaranteed to make a profit in the first few days, a lot of their now dead IP's would do that, but no, they just keep sitting on their asses.

insect people is the one for chinks; he's gone and lost the plot

I don't think Dota has dropped bellow 500k peak daily players in over a year. It's 300k concurrent at this very moment.

>Makes sense, considering most DOTA players are chinks or korean.
>korean

LMAO why do so many people on Yea Forums talk about games they know nothing about?

It was a custom game in Dota 2 that was basically like an auto battler based on race/class synergies. 8 player PVP, you bought units and they automatically battled on the field in turns.

The custom blew up, the dev team who made it is called Drodo who decided to use their money to partner with a Chinese publisher/studio to get a mobile version ASAP which is out now. Drodo also teamed up with Epic to get it on Epic Game Store. Riot and Valve are making their own versions, and Valve will have Underlords on mobile aswell.

Basically the next big thing is here, and its auto chess/battlers. Easy to make on PC and mobile and likely any IP will work if you get the right mechanics to make it stand out/unique. Riot has a shared carousel to make comebacks better for instance.

The first time I saw it was referring to bugged out nintendo switch faces
Kill yourself

>A game that literally plays itself
The end can't come soon enough, jesus christ.

You're a faggot for knowing this. Enjoy your ass cancer.

>A game that literally plays itself
Not defending this new meme genre but you're a special kind of retarded
By this logic every turn based game plays itself

i bet you like pokemon faggot

Theres a difference between turn based and "set things up and hope you win"

based retard

not him, but it does plays itself, and its a RNG fest even "pros" pray for RNG on their favor because it has 0 strategy

the guy who gets more lucky at start gets advantage of hp, you can also lose 15 times in a row to get good gold, and destroy everyone late game

it's not even from Yea Forums tard

So does the dota/cs fanbase. Which gives them way more.

What is even the appeal of autochess?

You depend a lot on piece RNG

There is nothing you can do to mitigate it

You can't directly affect the actual piece fighting

Where is the fun?

i meant autochess

>N-no one wants this
>a game that's almost as popular as Dota itself

Once again Yea Forums proves that they are even more out of touch than fucking Valve.

why does valve think their dota characters are memorable enough to base even more games off of

Have you seen the drodo version? It looks like fucking garbage in comparison.

The mobile version is probably more usable than the underlords version at the moment. That's all it has though.

ever heard of auto chess

oh yeah this looks like dog shit

Is this what we are supposed to expect from Valve now? More and more Dota related trashes?
I'm starting to regret the time where I wasn't expecting anything from Valve, they actually managed to get worse.

Guaranteed you'd say the same about any of their franchises.

You bet, I wish they stopped making Half-Life!

Synergies. Theory crafting. Improvisation.

>You depend a lot on piece RNG
Yes and no. All players draw from a communal pool of characters, and there's only so many characters in that pool. The characters you draw depend on what everyone else has, and vice-versa. You need a lot of a specific kind of character to play well, but everyone else can see what you're doing if you're too obvious, and cock-block you.

>You can't directly affect the actual piece fighting
True, BUT, specific characters have specific behaviors on the field that you can plan around. Piece placement is vital.
