The following are my DotA games.

2/14/2014:
griefed: 3/4
wins: 2/4
+ Show Spoiler +

I hope that today is different from the never ending tide of shit that is DotA. I have faith and I hope that luck is on my side.

Game 1:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed bristleback and planned to solo offlane. This game was looking pretty good since we had a potm + sd duo to gank and a morph + luna carry. However I think I may have gotten my hopes up because shortly after I got a triple kill bottom our potm + sd dc'd and wound up tanking abandons. However they did come back much later to finish the game.

[image loading]

I'll strike this down as unwinnable considering 2 people DC'd for well over 5 minutes and I was also griefed. By who? Luna. Why? I'm really not sure, he was mad he was 1-7-1 or something, I really hadn't even said anything all game either. I guess he just saw my items and took them for easy pray.

[image loading]


Game 2:
+ Show Spoiler +

This game actually started out looking really good. Too good.

[ALLIES] nX: im support
[ALLIES] nX: go carry guys

I could tell immediately that I was in for another unwinnable game, however I still retained hope and picked furion because I was slightly frustrated from last game. Our lineup was PL + OD + timbersaw + furion and the only one left to pick was nX. He picked sniper. But hey! I retained hope and figured maybe it was some next level support sniper strategy!

[image loading]

.....really next level....?

[image loading]

Bonus picture


Game 3:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed LC and played it for the first time. I sucked and got carried. Nothing special.


Game 4:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed PA and our magnus seemed friendly from the start. SW and rubick also seemed like decent people and our tri-lane went really well ruining that dirty phoenix pickers game. He died first blood and several times after that really early on. That didn't stop him from being a moron though!

[image loading]

It's really weird how people like this rationalize the shit that they do.......

[image loading]

I'm going to change the "unwinnable" category to "griefed" so that I can include games where the other team has to put up with this kind of shit as well.

[image loading]

Score screen. I'm on a different account that's actually my lowest MMR. Hilariously enough, games on this account are a lot more difficult than on my 5k/5.6k/ and 5.9k solo Q accounts. Most of them as I've noticed end up with some level of "game ruining" or "griefing".





2/15/2014:
griefed: 3/3
wins: 1/3
+ Show Spoiler +

Today I woke up really late in the afternoon, but I was ready and pumped to win some DotA. Or not. Whichever the DotA gods have in store for me.

Game 1:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed DP which is generally a pretty good hero to win DotA with. We also had the next 3 people random mirana, PL, and dazzle which is pretty good despite the other team being a bunch of counter picking nerds. Then the last guy on our team picked broodmother after the other team had SK, BH, and a tri lane. I had my doubts but he seemed confident.

[image loading]

Oh well I guess, 0-1 starting out today.


Game 2:
+ Show Spoiler +

Alright, time to shake off last game! I randomed meepo which I promptly repicked since immediately after I did that someone picked void and declared that he was farming bottom. Lich seemed like a good hero this game. After our picks end we have a pretty good lineup. What could go wrong?

[image loading]

Oh, I guess our team dual laning middle against an SF could happen, thus leaving our void solo against a PoTM (not fun).

[image loading]

After some time being called 'gay' struck a cord with CM so he decided to no longer dual lane mid. At least there's NO way our tinker can lose mid now considering he got babysat for over 3 minutes, right?

[image loading]

Worst case scenario is occurring again. Right after CM leaves Tinker starts his downward spiral of feeding to the SF..

[image loading]

Oh god, why?

[image loading]

Did I just upload the same picture twice?

[image loading]

When all is said and done, make sure to report lich!


Game 3:
+ Show Spoiler +

Forrest has randomed Lion
[ALLIES] Wck-^: Lion mid?
[ALLIES] Wck-^: ok.
[ALLIES] Wck-^: i'm done

[image loading]

It wouldn't be DotA if I didn't kill TB twice mid and then have my supports come start taking my farm middle, now would it?

[image loading]

fuccbois anonymous that way -->

[image loading]

Alright.

[image loading]

The enemy ogre has been flaming in all chat all game, meanwhile brown and gray have been asking the other team to "end mid" for a while now as well.

[image loading]

It wouldn't be DotA if someone didn't have their items stolen.

[image loading]
[image loading]
It wouldn't be DotA if someone didn't abandon.

[image loading]

DotA is a shitty game for not having a scenario where both teams lose.



2/16/2014:
griefed: 1/4 although people seemed especially stupid and bad, only the CM appeared to be intentionally griefing.
wins: 0/4

+ Show Spoiler +


I woke up feeling especially ominous, I could tell today was gonna be a horrid day for DotA :S

Game 1:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed Centaur to start. My team really shit the bed (they picked all of their heroes) and we almost didn't have a courier. We ended up with an ember jungling, sniper + DP bottom, and invoker middle. Things are we going decently at the start and I was pretty excited to win a game!

[image loading]

I don't wanna talk about it.

[image loading]


Game 2:
+ Show Spoiler +

I random Tiny and tell the team that I'll farm bottom. We end up in a tri-lane vs tri-lane scenario with Ogre + PoTM in which we get first blood and things are looking good. Too good.

[image loading]

Rather than just continue to win bottom, they smoke directly in front of an observer, what happens next?

[image loading]

They don't really get any wortwhile kills and trade negatively because the top lane ursa went middle and dropped the hammer. Meanwhile, it's been 6 minutes since I've had any help against a tri-lane and they take the tower and dive me twice. The PoTM spam pings me and the tower and uses the >Well Played! text.

[image loading]

I am no longer the carry. Ogre and PoTM are now the carries and I should refrain from hitting creeps so that PoTM and Ogre can farm.

[image loading]

Nice.

[image loading]

That's that I suppose.


Game 3:
+ Show Spoiler +

I random Beastmaster and go solo offlane. Some guy with #SADBOYS in his name picks SF. I am worried already.

[image loading]

Sad indeed.

[image loading]

On a related note: SF and TB both flamed me for losing them this game. If you're out there reading this guys, I'm SO sorry!!!


Game 4:
+ Show Spoiler +

I random Batrider and go to the jungle.

[image loading]

I get a 7 minute blink dagger. However I'm not level 6 since CM thought it would make sense to share the experience that I was getting from my stacks. Socialism sucks.

[image loading]

I ask CM to stop using Nova on creep waves so I can farm my force staff.

[image loading]

I ask her again. To no avail.

[image loading]

What did I do?

[image loading]

I hope he doesn't see this blog and 1 star it :S

[image loading]

Losses happen I guess, oh well!



2/17/14
griefed: 2/4
wins: 2/4

+ Show Spoiler +

Hopefully today is better......... v_v

Game 1:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed Medusa. I hit creeps. My team won without me.

[image loading]

The end.


Game 2:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed Medusa again. Why? Is this a test?

[image loading]

I mean, okay?

[image loading]

OKAY?

[image loading]

Just for the record here: you'll get a MUCH faster midas, like up to 2 minutes faster, if you just start with a qb + stout and a stack of tangos. Especially when you have CM aura to cast scorched earth on CD. I don't think this doom even used scorched earth that often.

[image loading]

I don't even know.

[image loading]

Thanks?


Game 3:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed DK and was pretty happy. I really enjoy DK. Despite someone already having picked Storm to go middle with, I wasn't worried, I could just go farm bottom. Right?

[image loading]

WRONG.

[image loading]

Whatever, I'm not in the mood for this.

[image loading]

Oh well.


Game 4:
+ Show Spoiler +

I randomed AA. I like AA and was planning on going mid against SF. It's a pretty easy lane with chilling touch!

[image loading]

Oh my fucking god.

[image loading]

PLEASE!!!

[image loading]

PLEASE NO!!!!!!!!

[image loading]

NO MORE!!!!!!!

[image loading]

I wanna fucking die.





I'm still playing and will update as I play.

You've become so good, the game itself is now handicapping you by not letting you have useful items (gg branch excepted).

I've played over 1k games of dota 2 and i've never seen someone ( on my team atleast) hide items like this, yet so many people talk about it like its a regular thing.

You are. Lost a game because my Satanic got hidden, but it was off the map, and so unreachable. GG.

lol that sniper...brings me back terrible memories.
There are many kinds of people that you want to avoid in the dota world: throwers, leavers, flamers, feeders...
But the worst is probably a guy who steals his teammate's items.
If it's like a prank in a winning game, then it's a different story.
But to deliberately sabotage a game like that? Probably the most infuriating things one can do in dota, and I've come across a few in my 1000+ dota games.

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

I've been really surprised at the level of griefing in ranked play. Given the 150 game requirement I figured people would be a little more determined to hold on to their accounts.

I had a similar thing where a Mirana wanted support Mirana then proceeded to buy no supportive items and miss every single arrow.

I also don't get some people's feeding rage... I had a Slardar who got pissed because we sent Earthshaker bot for a tri lane (well duo + jungling LC). He ended up deciding that he wanted to intentionally feed. So he fed about 10 deaths... but uh it didn't matter. Somehow our team was still winning/even. Our ES and Mirana were good and the enemy team was incompetent at dealing with my phoenix play (I got every single egg off in every single teamfight and they pretty much never tried to attack it no matter where I put it). Either way Slaradar just continued his death runs all the way up to 28 by the time we lost. It just baffles me though, at some point when your team is possibly going to win without you why wouldn't you just idle in base or something stupid and take the free win? I don't think I have any ability to relate to people who get that angry. It ended up being a 55 minute match so he was really really dedicated to dieing repeatedly.

Ugh yea elohell etc..I like playing 1 and it's so hard to carry the team alone, if you're not playing a snowball mid or something like that :/ I think I play with an actual support once every five games, play with a friendly/competent team once every ten. haven't played in weeks also because nobody I know irl to play with T_T

Don't be afraid of items that can help pushing when the enemy team is going to be able to splitpush really hard. You didn't hit a single tower all game (which is more impressive than anything really). In general the fact you had a 44 minute game ahead in kills where your team only did 547 damage to towers is pretty nuts.

(Mostly I'm jealous because I don't play Tusk well)
