Getting matched with pros not so much since you might be acting as dead weight. Well, I've gotten shit on by Demon and EternalEnvy, as well as a few ex-names from HoN (in dota2). But yeah, I'm well aware that I'm not really "up there". | ||

He just so happens to be one of the easiest heroes in the game to gank, so it kind of depends on a teammate to think "free gold!". Its the base damage nerf that really hurt me, he was soon just denying most of my creeps, blasting down my wave and pushing me into my tower. I really do see now why pros have to go QE, you just get out cs'd if you don't  | ||

I still remember a pro HoN game where the de-facto best HoN mid player went 12/12 CS after 3 creep waves as sniper (vs a 0/0 Shadow Fiend). Not the most relevant example, but good snipers can sometimes just get all the CS. | ||

Played once against Merlini page 3  . Now i'm probably page 1000 after my mega losing streak ahahah. Played also with Rmn, Cranich, and once against 3DMax.Noiea. He raped us so hard with solo mid sile i'm still having nightmares for it lol. | ||

I mean, at least listen to both sides before you even judge. I thought people were at least better than this but I guess not. It just makes me a bit sad, that's all. Scapegoat / vocal minority / hivemind mentality. Tobi has made a few mistakes in the past (and often apologized for them), so now everyone jumped on a bandwagon of hate for him. I mean, yeah, they make mistakes, but a lot of the hate is unwarranted. Sad that the community is turning this way. | ||

I mean JD has done a lot for the scene, but at the same time for quite a while they were THE name in dota 2 and rather than try to promote the game and the scene, they used their position to self-promote wildly, often at the cost of up-and-coming competitors. Understandable, but not really appealing or helpful to the community. It isn't that I blame them for too many things, just that I don't like their organization at the moment. | ||
