Or maybe it was because the flamer WR had no idea how to land his shackleshot and the other guy didn't do better. I don't think I am the only one experiencing that odd feeling of satisfaction, please tell me I am not cus otherwise I might have to rethink my attitude to solo queue | ||

Because it used to be dodge-able right? Either way, the amount of shit IceFrog (and I suppose his predecessors) had to do to get the game to work how he wanted.. o.O | ||

The first game I played I litterally clicked and I was in game, I guess it doesn't happen every time, but I tried to play a 2nd game after that I waited like 35 minutes then I decided to do something else, waited for 15 minutes a bit later that night with no luck. Last night I played a game after like 15 minutes Today it took about 20 before I play and now it's been about 45 minutes and I'm still waiting I guess my MMR is low, my level sucks and whatever, but it's hard to get better when you can play once a day... | ||

What mode are you queueing for? Also what servers? It's never normally longer than 2 minutes for me o-o | ||

Unless you are on low priority or your MMR is somewhere off the charts, it shouldn't be that long. If you want faster queue times, search more regions and enable All Pick, Random Draft, Single Draft etc. Just queueing for Captain's Mode will take a lot longer as a lot less people play it. Also, you'd want to make sure you're playing on Dota 2, NOT Dota 2 Test. That's a common issue that I've seen come up a couple times. | ||

Tinker rockets can't travel to etheral units, but they will hit units made etheral mid-travel and will have their damage amplified. I often forget it since i don't play tinker often, so when i blink in with dagon etheral i often mess up my combo, hahaha. Edit: Just realized i worded this poorly, but whatever i'm sure people get it and i'm too tired to reword it x.x | ||

Leaving a freefarm lane as jugger when you coulda freefarmed for 10-15 more minutes shouldnt win be games and it didn't but somehow it felt satisfactory when people called me bad..

I don't think I am the only one experiencing that odd feeling of satisfaction, please tell me I am not cus otherwise I might have to rethink my attitude to solo queue I'm not sure I understand, you like intentionally doing things that aren't ideal so your teammates can complain? Is it some sort of masochistic desire for you to perceived as being bad, or do you just enjoy messing with people? Either way, matchmaking is whatever you make it out to be, but if I'm understanding you right, your way of playing doesn't seem very fulfilling. | ||
