One time I think I randomed jugg. Two other people on my team got CM and earthshaker. We went safelane dire, mid level pub trilane. Pulled it off fantastically. First blood was around the 1 min mark for us. We ended up with about 5 more kills before the 8 min mark. I was missing most of my KS since I barely play carries but it doesn't matter since we owned so hard.
Anyway we get the tower they rotate off. I farm a super quick battlefury into aghs and join up for the final push into the enermies base (Our mid also owned)
It was just a really fun game and it was cool to see good teamwork in a pub. I relied on total unknowns and they didn't let me down which was awesome

played with a support rubick that completely dominated teamfights. I don't even know how he did it, but every teamfight it would look as if he was using 5 different spells, completely setting the tempo of the fights and taking out the enemy key players
fuckin' a Rubick, fuckin' a

i remember one game, i dont know what i played, but we got stomped. we got stomped badly for the first 25 minutes losing 2 of our rax and just getting beaten everywhere. and then, without any flames or bad blood we suddenly pulled ourself together, fought for 30 more minutes and won the game on the back of a 6 slotted void.
|
Tried to remember sweet moments, but all I recall are throws, flames, and painful games, both from DotA WC3 and DotA 2 lol. But I remember some of my solo queue games where we won against 5 ppl stacks! Always a good feeling to defeat 5 ppl stack lol.

After we started with losing all lanes, I actually feeded in mid, we lost mid raxes early. But I had finally bought my blink dagger on my tinker. I kept the game alive for another 40minutes and my teammates didnt die needlessly and had a pretty good and social time helping me defending our base. (The game was in a stalemate). We couldnt push anywhere near their base and they couldnt enter our high ground again because of constant goblin march.. Finally after some discussion they decided to smoke up behind me from base after I had pushed all lanes past river.
We won one teamfight after the initial pick off, the only teamfight we won in the whole game. Went on to destroy their throne. It was a fun and social game even thou we were playing from behind from minute one. It is amazing what you can accomplish with complete strangers as long as the athmosphere is good. Finished the game with a score off something like 36-65 in 70 minutes.

When me and and one of my friends use to play LoL, we would always do amazing our lane because we always had knew what each other would do. After not playing dotalike games together for a year we finally got back at it in DOTA. After a month of solid times teaching him how to lane in dota we had a flashback moment where both of us knew what we were going to do without saying anything to each other. Together we blew up a near full hp QoP in less than a second with him max range lina ulting and me as am blinking and auto attacking into a mana void before the QoP had a chance to blink away. It was that tipping point when we realized we were finally synced again.

Veno was laning with me bottom, but we got destroyed and I hardly get any farm at all. Mirana does what he can with some amazing arrows, picking off people whereever possible giving me space to finish my late battle fury and go into super farm mode. The game progresses, we trade a few teamfights here and there pretty evenly, but they have a medusa, morphling, and night stalker all getting significant farm, and the medusa constantly gets away from the teamfights alive.
A bad decision by them trying to take our mid rax allows me to safely take their bottom rax and tp back in time to defend. We push them back but overcommit causing the death of most of our team while they are all alive/respawned. They start taking all our rax, and I know we can't fight them with Medusa and NS being 6 slotted and the rest of the team being very farmed as well. Veno is flaming me for not doing anything all game despite being 4-15 and tusk is complaining that mirana never ganked his lane. Meanwhile, I look at their base and see our bottom lane has pushed to the T4 towers, so I buy some TP boots for a last minute hail mary. I TP into the base and kill the towers before they realize what is happening. Morphling was the only one with a TP, and since they were busy taking rax they still had towers to get through while I only had to kill the throne. Morphling TPs back but I just ignore him and throne winning the game that seemed completely out of reach. My friend and I were laughing for 5 minutes straight, epic way to win :D
what does that have to do with anything about good teammates? this is not a BRAG post.

I played without a stack and got matched up with 4 people that were nice, worked together and were just a blast all around to play with. Even though we were severely behind, none of them pointed fingers and we ended up taking the game with an awesome comeback.
I don't even care that Void got a minute 14 Midas, that game was just awesome. His chronospheres were what ended up winning us the game.

Solo queue, AP. Someone randoms Shadow Shaman, so I pick Jugg to lane with him. I'm a little worried when he starts off with a bracer, some regen, and says he can't afford courrier 0.o, but he then rocked it rest of the game. Constant harass and deny in lane, decent wards, and great communication. We also got fb, and went like 8-1 in offlane, even taking them out when they try to gank us (shackles + battle fury OP). I snowballed well and carried to a clean victory, and like 30 min in right before we start takin T3 towers, SS says, "Hey Jugg," I say "sup," he says "Awesome laning with you, we wrecked em eh? You're a great juggernaut, now go finish rocking their face!" So I did with a great big smile on my face =).

Every once in a while I get a game where the entire team just clicks. Everyone is friendly, everyone knows what to do without need for excessive pinging and directions, failed team fights result in reflection and optimism over finger pointing and flaming, and wins result in gg wp's with each other. Often I just invite the entire team for the next few games.

Hitting WR shackles. Man, that spell is so rewarding when you pull of some amazings ones.

The feeling of turning a hopeless match around through patience, and optimism.
We were getting slammed all game long, they kept up constant, well-executed ganks in all the lanes and pushed us all the way back to our base with ease. What came next was almost storybook.
A split-pushing Meepo
A constantly aware, unshakably optimistic Juggernaut
A handful of careful team fights.
We pushed all the way to win after wiping them in one fight at our crumbling top rax + Ancient towers. After playing from behind the entire game, it felt godly. Thank goodness for the R button. I'll always remember the joyous uproar in Skype when the Radiant Ancient fell.

This game is a good illustration of good moments in Dota. I asked Vykromond to cast it: http://www.twitch.tv/vykromond/b/410013940 (oh noooooo it looks like the link is dead now, I'll see if Vyk can fix it. Game ID: 202996056)
The game started off rough. Really rough. Our entire team wasn't doing particularly well. Some overconfidence on the part of the other team presented the slightest glimmer of hope for us. When someone offers you a lifeline like that, you can't just ignore it. Our team rallies and begins cautiously clawing back into the game. Effective communication and careful preparation allow us to come back from the brink. What happens next...? The game is a little long but it's recommended viewing.

Ya... fix that link! I thought I was losing it in all my tabs earlier until I got busy with something else. I'd like to see that game

Things weren't looking too good for us..
+ Show Spoiler +
Then DotA happened.

This game is so beautiful when comebacks happen, even if due to throws.

Vyk says that Twitch may have deleted the VOD. Fear not, you can watch the replay. Game ID 202996056.

When I play a more item-dependent hero, and a support comes with me in lane but actually doesn't take last hits + effectively harasses the enemies. Alternatively, when I play support and my carry farms well + exercise the right amount of caution so they don't die needlessly but don't miss good kill opportunities either...especially when they go on to dominate *sniff* they grow up so fast.
