Playing Chen/Enchantress. Being able to micro jungle creeps well and making a difference in the game with them just feels so good.

Chen especially has the ability to single handedly keep his team afloat, like those things kids wear around their shoulders/waists while swimming (dunno what they're called). Between NC auras, microing NCs well to chain stuns/slows, sending back focused allies, dat <10 minute mekansm, and of course ALLLLL ARE HEALED! (eargasm every time), playing Chen just feels so satisfying to me even if we eventually lose.

I love this hero.

I was queuing with a friend, we ended up in captains mode. As we get to the last pick his internet dies and he can't reconnect. We pause for a while but to no avail. Once he abandons everyone on our team starts leaving except Puck and I. We then make it our goal to screw around as much as possible to delay the game and try to get as many kills as possible. While they were goofy with items as well, it was hilarious chasing people around with ion shell and Puck's dagon. We wiped their team at our T3 and ended with more kills than them.

Too stupid to not share.

And as usual, the TL uploader doesn't agree with me. But look at the levels, they tell the story.

Unlike the other stories about a good support CM that guarded the lane to allow a carry to snowball out of control, I have a story from a while back that completely turns thing around. While it was not exactly skilled play, the memory will probably stick with me until I quit dota

Usual solo MM experience, team mates were not fully onto it, I was playing badly as well. Although no bickering happened within the team, communication was lacking and we were obviously losing in a steadily increasing steamroll. About 15 minutes in, we were down to our T3 in one lane, they had over 5x our kills. A push comes down that lane a bit later on, I TP back to help defend and 4v5 teamfight happens at T3 (they had 5, we had 4). As expected, the fight doesn't go well and two of us die without managing any kills on the enemy team, other two are trying to run back to fountain at low health.

Now here is the reason we were 4v5, CM was warding the river by our final remaining T1 when they started to push. Up until now, CM had played a typical position 5 without doing anything remarkable at all. During this warding CM happened upon an invisibility rune, what happened next was the most epic tide turner I have ever played. While the enemy was diving the two remaining survivors past the T3 tower, CM decided that enough was enough. After the most awe inspiring freezing field I had ever seen, ultra kill. Frostbite + nova, rampage. The gpm of CM literally more than doubled within 15 seconds.

From there on, the team managed to rally together and devolve the game into some weird 4 protect 1 strategy centred around CM. While the enemy took the remaining towers outside the base, they never again managed to properly threaten any of our T3s. CM ended the game at beyond godlike with manta, skadi and daedalus. Despite how poorly played out this game was, I'm sure glad that the rest of the team never gave up or else we would have missed witnessing an ending we could have never imagined.

this will sound like a brag-post but it was one of my few good moments in dota since most of them were pretty much rage and rage -_-

so i went solo queue a pub MM two days ago

i picked rubbick, bought courier and went solo mid ... it went back and forth for a while, i managed for farm decently well, got by mana boots, blink and force staff ... then there was this team fight, that we went in with me having puck's coil from a previous steal ... everyone was hesitated in engaging, so i man-moded, blinked in the middle of the other team, coiled all 5 men, stole puck's orb, nuked them with the stolen orb and my bolt then force-staffed myself out ... then my team proceeded to clean the rest ... felt pretty good until one of the guys (i couldn't remember if it was on my team or the others) said "Dendi?"... needless to say i had a big fucking grin on my face for the entire evening ...

This felt really good, after being told to leave and getting called shit, annoying, bad, etc. They only started talking after I got a few kills but I suspect they only did that to try and psyche me out and make me want to leave (I've been playing games online for over 6 years, good luck with that)
