EPTNB, can you honestly say that you took every opportunity that you could that game? That you didn't miss a solo kill opportunity? That you couldn't have tp-counterkilled even 1 of the 16 deaths on your team?

 ... that game went really silently bc we all know we got outplayed. I just use it to demonstrate what Erasme talked about earlier on how he always pick carry.another thing: is it just me or EU sever skill level is much better than US? when i play on EU i often get people who actually know what they are doing rather than US who know nothing and rage at team by swearing by mic and stuff =_= | ||

A reason could be that since a majority of Europe do not have English as their mother tongue immature kids will be less common there than in the US. | ||

Americans are competitive at the highest levels of FPS games and we seem to be OK at SC. Why we are lagging in DotA is not something I personally know. As our internet connections between east and west coast have improved so too, it seems, has our ability to compete on the world stage. To be good, you must have good competition to practice against and that always seemed to be the limiting factor for us. Europe is MUCH more population dense than the US which is a few centers of high density surrounded by vast expanses of basically no one + our internet infrastructure has historically had as little investment as possible by the telecoms (you know, cuz it might eat into profits or something). Will America ever have as strong a scene as Europe? Well, I dont know. I hope so, because DotA 2 is my only hope for a competitive game right now as the FPS games out now make me sad. | ||

The American Dota community is the worst. It is the absolute worst. Not in terms of skill but attitude, flame etc. | ||

That being said, the russians i've played with are rather hilarious. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/wWp6y.jpg) Looks pretty stompy, but it was actually a comeback from my team. Enemy team tried to push through ~5 powershots and dual breaths and got wiped, then they never recovered. And I love playing Windrunner, such a great hero. :D | ||

I love how WR, AM and Morph can't really decide which items to go for, so they're just kind of all over the place. | ||
