Played Dazzle with my friends (Pudge and PA). We stomp early to mid game but when we were pushing, my dota 2 suddenly crashed so I do back up and open it. A few minutes later it dies on me again. It happens a few more times until my team runs out of pauses because the other team does not want to wait because suddenly they were winning.

I fucking hated that moment, losing because Dota 2 was dying on me. Hell, even during our Fantasy Draft, it was crashing like hell.

Did you try to play him as anything other than a support? If so, that's the problem.

im not mad. but i dont understand how some of these players get to their rating...he lost mid to a magnus and blamed the supports for ruining his game (we ganked once and he missed sunstrike on a stunned target)
he only used sunstrike and coldsnap the entire game
edit: just now our highest ranked player picks kotl and gos afk in woods for the first 10minutes while i have to "zone" potm with a freaking sandking

Drafted Shadow Shaman, Disruptor, PA trilane. SS levels 0-4-4, Disruptor levels 0-4-4. Lose in 15 minutes because we have 0 damage to defend pushes. When I tell them how stupid their builds are, they tell me it's not 'physically possible to be as stupid' as I am, and that my draft lost us the game. Really quite incredible. I am prepared for a losing streak. Seems like I have a good few games and then I get put in low priority without officially being in LP, because I get idiots like this, Russians who tell me they want 'mid or feed/cyka/fuck your mom bitch' before draft even begins, etc.


I was right to be prepared. Already had one game with a captain who demanded that I play darkseer as a trilane support and raged when I went to get solo lane exp when they wanted to 5 man tower (2 lanes with nobody in them. This is such low level dota. Their response to our darkseer trilane was to quadlane against it. Okay my MMR is only 3.3k but this is just...). Wtf is a level 3 darkseer going to contribute to a 5 man push anyway? Last game I get some guy who demands invoker/pudge, doesn't get it and feeds immediately.

When you're on a losing streak, you should start picking a hero you're comfortable winning with. For me, right now, thats Invoker or Viper, who are both incredibly powerful while being, for me, easy to play. Of course I don't win every game with the, but I'm way more comfortable playing those than if I, say, random and get Meepo or something.

Probably take a break from Dota. which is what I should do. I am something like 4-22 in my last 26 games... The worst part about that is around 80% of those games I either had no control over or was personally doing pretty well while watching another lane get ganked over, and over, and over...

It's not even like I'm chaining games while on tilt, it just lasts since like 2months+ of playing a few games every 3/4 days :x

Well, it couldn't get any worse with my playing puck or sf. I'm doing it also because of the 10 random hero challenge. 0-6 , 0 -4 currently with them. I don't seem to be able to win them at all. Once i get done with these two heroes, I wouldnt use them at all next time.

I'm just so used to playing support that I do all the support things most of the times. Any tips on them? It just seem that these heroes doesn't fit me at all.Some heroes just seems so hard for me :'(

I am the Dazzle. This was ranked, the first 10 games you play to figure out what mmr you get. So we were doing fine, I think we were all Pinoys in the team and the opposing teams had guys from Visayas and Mindanao. The start was really really good, I got the invi rune once pudge at mid got level 2 so he had hook and rot. He dove the zeus mid for rot + heal bomb from me and hook to secure the kill. We did it 2 more times so mid was pretty well off. I went back to top with Ogre Magi and the opponents safelane bounty hunter fed pretty darn hard. I was able to pick him off, he'd go ghost walk, hit me, get creep agro, get surrounded, get heal bombed, get poison touched, and die.

Everything was great until fucking Ogre Magi decided to piss off Ember Spirit by borrowing his bottle and using one charge before giving it back to Ember. I get Ogre's point that Ember shouldn't be such a pussy about losing one bottle charge, but Ogre should have asked for permission to use one bottle charge (as Pudge pointed out). At that point, Ember just started to fucking throw the game. He wasn't there during clashes which would have made us win. Naix was left unchecked too and he was pretty darn hard to take down. Pudge was starting to get pissed too because he was asking Ember and Ogre to chill and play the game but those two were acting like 12 year old pub players who get pissed at the slightest things.

I ended up reporting Ogre (primarily for trashtalking/taunting whenever he killed someone), Ember, Zeus, and I think Prophet. Actually I ran out of reports that game because the chat was unnecessarily noisy and full of shit.

Very different heroes, but here's some tips for them assuming you just want to win one game.
Also, this is very basic so I'm sorry if this doesn't help you in particular and this is all just from my personal experience. I don't claim to be a pro at either of these heroes, but they are among my stronger ones.

Shadow Fiend
* Don't use your ult. SF's ultimate is quite hard to time, takes several seconds to be released and what will happen, essentially, if you didn't time it right: You won't do anything while the ultimate is channeling and most likely either a) die during the channeling or b) have your ult do some damage but it's not enough to kill anybody and you die shortly after.

* Don't die. Yeah this sounds obvious and like a stupid advice, but it's more important to not die as SF than it is with any other hero. Your damage is linked to the amount of souls you gathered (last hits and denies) and you lose half of them each time you die. It is crucial for you to always be at 36 souls to really be able to dish out the damage. Whenever you're not sure whether you should engage or not, you probably shouldn't.

* Stack creep camps all game (even the small one). This is assuming you don't have amazing supports that do nothing but stack creep camps in the jungle for you. Once you died, you will want to replenish your souls asap. Remember: Size (and gold) don't matter here, just sheer numbers.

* Don't get a Shadow Blade even if the guide tells you to. If you're familiar with the hero and are good at using his ult, SB can be a fun, stupid item in pub stomps. Otherwise, it's a waste of gold.


Puck
* Puck is hard to last hit with (his animation is slow and his base dmg is abysmal). His strengths are his escape abilities and his initiation. Dream Coil is fantastic for team fights and so are his AoE orb and silence. Puck is completely useless on his own tho. Don't look for 1v1s. Always try to have enough mana for an orb in order to get away quickly.

* Use Phase Shift (e), a lot. You can dodge any bullet with this amazing spell and it only has a 6 sec cooldown. When I started to play Puck, I basically only used it to (try and) dodge huge spells like a Sven stun etc. I've changed that pattern and dodge tower shots and any hero a-click now. It's incredibly useful just for that purpose. Remember to not do anything during Phase Shift (e.g. move commands cancel it).

* Use Puck's escapability. Once you have a blink dagger, you can basically dodge whatever the opponent can fire at you, but even without it, you're incredibly hard to hit if you're doing it right. Let's take a standard team fight: You're in your jungle, waiting to initiate on your opponents. 2 or more of your buddies are close and wait for you to go. You go in, using your Orb (Q), next you'll want to silence nearby opponents (W), followed by Dream Coil (R). Now it's time for your teammates to clean up and for you to get the hell out. At this point, use Phase Shift. If you have a blink dagger, lvl 4 Phase Shift will guarantee that you can use it even if you were attacked. If you don't have a dagger or you couldn't blink, your Q spell only has a 12 sec cd. It should come up shortly. Fire it somewhere far away from your opponents (cliffs and trees are your friend) as soon as possible and use Phase Shift again. Use D to get to the Orb's location while it's under way.

* Don't buy a dagon unless you can get it very early. Puck can appear out of nowhere and do a decent amount of dmg. That, coupled with a dagon, can lead to a couple of very easy kills. However, Dagon falls off a lot as time goes on. If you can have it while your opponents are still squishy, it's an okay item choice, but since you're just going for 1 win, you can increase your chances by going for good int and disabling items (Eul's and hex are amazing on Puck).
