To use an example from when I started playing SSF4AE, I picked Juri completely randomly, and as I started paying more and more, I noticed that she just fit me. People say that she is not an easy character play with and although I can understand why people think that way, I doesn't really apply for me (if you take into consideration that I'm not that good at playing the game in the first place  ) | ||

[/begin tldr: my dota experience] When i started playing dota(1), in 2006, we didn't know anything about the pro scene or strategies. We played from internet cafes, and wanted to spend the time we payed for 100% on actually playing, so we didn't even read guides or anything. Combined with that we played on a hungarian only server almost exclusively, and let me tell you looking back at how we approached the game back then, is really funny. I remember, the standard was solo top lane (from both sides (so solo offlane sentinel and solo safelane scourge)) and dual mid, and if someone went to the wrong lane, everyone was flaming him, cause we thought this is the only way dota could be played. We did a ton of easy mode because we thought the only difference is that the game is faster, so ultimately you just get to play more right? And since players moving to our server from others was very rare, no one ever told us how retarded we were (and we just thought he is the noob anyway). [/end tldr] My point is, russians have their own approach to this game, (gogo attack push go kill go kill attack go), which can actually be a lot of fun in my opinion (I like to play russian doto as well sometimes), but can be counter productive, and since constant fighting gets your adrenaline level high, people tend to be more tense, and argue when things go wrong (anyone who never got mad when he missed a close kill should step forward and throw the first stone). So yea, all in all playing with russians is a toss-up. Sometimes they snowball, and game is fun, sometimes they get behind, and then the flame wars begin. They play high risk high reward, which is fine, but when you do that you should be ready to deal with the situation when it doesn't work out. | ||

I've played with just as many horrible English people, I personally would prefer tighter MMR distribution in matches over region locking. Totally true. Ive played with some ballers russian that owned also. My favorite thing is crushing Chinese people | ||

The people who manage to communicate even with language barriers, whether by pinging or the chat wheel, tend to be good players on any server. | ||

I can be a retard and only receive admonishment in the form of "puta", "сука" or "noob" Winning always feels like a more significant achievement when it's done with only pings and chatwheel I've even learned like 3 phrases in Spanish With Chinese people I have literally no idea what they are saying at all. They can't even all caps anything. Makes the game way less emotional and easier for me to focus on my own play | ||
