In which universe do you live that random people play decent support(not just pick support, but actually play) while you are alchi? I think I have seen it maybe 10% of the games and even then I wasn´t the only carry. Especially the creep stacking part. Not every carry in pubs profits from stacked creeps, so it requires thinking and trust of the support player in you. Sometimes when creeps are stacked I´m not even sure the stack was on purpose, or just someone got distracted while farming woodcreeps. Overall I think it´s too rare to level acid spray to 4 early.

Don´t you know you never get outplayed? It´s always your teams fault. To determine whos fault exactly, here´s the priority list: 1. The one who criticises you 2. The one you saw noticed dying at least once 3. The first one to criticise anyone else 4. Mid player if he didn´t gank your lane once a minute 5. The fucking noob support who has no items 6. The guy with the worst k/d or least kills besides you. | ||

If no, then you weren't out of position, you just have bad supports. Its their fault. If yes, then its your whole teams fault for not being where the team fight happened. | ||

Why don't teams organize their teams around heroes, instead of roles? Sure playing mid all the time gives you a different perspective, but you should be flexible in a game lik dota imo. There's a few exceptions of course, but the majority of the time players play heroes that are within their role. | ||

There's a few exceptions of course, but the majority of the time players play heroes that are within their role. Because roles are played with a certain mindset. I can mostly relate to junglers, so I will share that point of view: As jungler you need experience with jungling(which is different than being an experienced laner). Junglers are often able to gank either sidelane in the first 3 levels, can walk around the map more freely. I have a goal as jungler and have less interference from enemies reaching it. Part is about planning around the creeps and time marks(x:51 for stacking, x:16 for pulling, x:00 for respawn of camps). Supports are likely more concerned about harrassing and placing wards in the most awesome spots etc. I do think it´s easier to play certain roles than play a mixed set of heroes with different roles. | ||

Really fucking annoying when trying to land any kind of skillshot or keep track of whats going on in a fight. I guess we're only 1 or 2 patches from me not being able to play this game at all by this rate. Really? I have probably the worst computer in the thread and play on all low yet my FPS has been going steadily up as the beta progresses.... | ||

Even without creep stacking acid spray is extremely strong in lane. Maxing acid spray with one point in greed and stun is the way to go imo. Do not underestimate the power of -armor. | ||

"Played support well" "Very aggressive player" etc. All stored locally as simple text files only accessible by you. Is this a bad idea? Where the heck is the thread to suggest this to Valve? That is literally one of the best suggestions I've heard in a long time, would be awesome as hell. | ||

That's something completely different. What he and I are referring to is somthing along of "click his picture" -> "get a little notepad like box dropping down" -> "what you write in there gets saved in a .txt that's tied to his steamname" and adds a little "this guy has a note"-icon. Next time you see the person you see your little note icon, click his picture and see the notes you made last time. | ||
