At the same time, in every beginner's guide you would read how leaving games is like the worst sin in Dota, and every server tracks leavers and bans them etc. How come, then, the ladder rules make it beneficial for people to ask their weak teammates to leave? A ladder gives you points for winning. Playing 4v5 is simpler than playing 4v6 (one person feeding the opponent). As long as it is based on winning it is positive for a team to ask a person that has the wrong hero and is bad enough to leave. As for why leaving is bad, the game can almost always be turned around on a pub level. Each team simply makes so many mistakes that the game can be turned around. If one player leaves the chance of that occurring decreases. As mentioned above though, if a player is bad enough it is simpler to 4v5. The majority of the time a team asks you to leave they are acting out of frustration and not out of impartial judgement of your skill. | ||

Obviously. Ahh thank you. I guess trying to stack without tunneling first doesn't work for some particular camps? | ||

It feels like all the topics I want to discuss has a thread. If you want to post something small that doesn't require a thread, go ahead and post it here. If this follows the rules of the LoL thread almost anything goes, talk about a recent game you played, talk about a small thing like an item, or skill order on a hero, etc. talk about a recent stream you found or cast you watched. That kind of thing | ||

With my minimal understanding of mandarin it seems right. | ||
