Hey again guys!

We finally broke our losing streak!

Over the course of the last 3 practices we didn't have any wins anymore and we started to get frustrated.
I questioned my captaining and drafting skills and even thought about stepping down.

As I explained in the last blog we had several problems and I am just going to tell you what we did to fix these problems:


The draft:

After the first one or two losses we started discussing during the draft and therefore mixed up ideas.
To fix that and find my style again I muted myself on teamspeak today and just drafted what I wanted to.
That way we found back to our style and that leads to the next thing.



The communication:

Today I made a lot of calls and we ganked their carry again.
The initation were better and the communication during the fights was really good too.



The supports:

Well..Because I picked heroes they're familiar with again their communication was better and we had more interaction between the other lanes.



The carry:

Not a lot to say..We had a stand-in today because Christian has problems with his internet.



The off-lane

I played waaaay better today and didn't feed.
I made a lot of calls aswell which (as already mentioned) helped our overall team fighting and the ganks.



The mid:

Well...He never really way the source of the problem :D
He played well again.



So all in all I am pretty happy with our and my performance.
When Christian is back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow we will have to see how the tri-lane communication works out but I am pretty sure we should be fine.
Unfortunately I am pretty ill (39° fever) so I cannot really manage to write more.
I also excuse for not writing an entry yesterday but we cancelled practice because Christian was not there and we kind of lost motivation the day before.

Thank you for reading again!
And btw...The guys that downrate this blog..Please give me some feedback on it. I can understand that you do not like it but a short notice about what you don't like would really help me out.

Thanks to the rest that follow my blog and reply with helpful comments on the situations we experience.

NoLuck out!

Keep up these blogs, as a relative newcomer to dota 2 I am finding them pretty interesting.

people downrate blogs for no reason dont let it discourage you.

Losing streaks are better than winning streaks for playing better since you can find out what you did wrong very easily, but winning streaks are important for morale so you dont ragequit and disband.

If you have a fever rest up and dream of dota, then when you wake up you can destroy any who would oppose you.

Thanks for the support both of you
It's funny..I never understood why people write blogs and read them and all but now I understand.
It helps you so much to just write down your thoughts and then get feedback about them by others.
I am really happy about every single person commenting on my blog .
I agree that losing streaks are really important because they force you to change things and have a deeper look at problems.
But losing 3 games straight really discourages a team.

Btw. I really dream of DOTA :D This morning I woke up and thought I am Furion..And because I couldn't move (ill and all that) I thought I am dead lol

Sorry for spelling mistakes but I wrote that with my mobile..That makes things harder.
