3 loss, 2 leavers. Non-leaver game is supportless(i picked first= no support). 4K is trench
And ofc Volvo servers are down again. I don't remember any other game has that many server issues. Constant player drop, constant server instability.
I played LOL for a very short amount of time like 50+ games and don't even remember problems like these.
Ya but then you're stuck playing League.
My QQ is a teammate who communicated to us through a series of pings. Was that a ping to go back or a ping to go in? Are you pinging bottom lane because you want to farm it, or because you want someone else to farm it?
But the real kicker comes at the end of the game when, in perfect english, he proceeds to all chat bash us. I don't understand. The whole game he had the capability of communicating with us perfectly. The only thing I can think of is that he just finished playing a series of games where he got pissed off and thus decided to instamute all of us.

I literally can't play with my friends.
Not because they're bad, but because valve's "smurf detection" is beyond godlike. The account I'm playing on, starting from brand new, is 3 wins, 9 losses (LLWLLWLWLLLLL). I NEVER tryhard, intentionally skip / miss farm / play badly / don't carry, because I wanna fuck around with my bad friends and laugh about shit.
And, I mean, they're still bad games... but we're talking what should be maaybe 1.5k "Can still lose to hard bots" level play, but when I queue with them we're against people who have the orchid queued up on tide before he blinks in. They ward and counterward, ganked me as enchantress in woods as 2 after wardblocking my woods, are good enough to legitimately beat me mid (I'm 3800 and not a mid specialist, but not at all a 3k mid or anything), are smoke rotating, roaming, and ganking at times that make sense from angles that make sense.
I mean, this is shit that I don't see consistently on my actual account, and it's happening with relative frequency on an account on which I've only played with my buddies who will LITERALLY play co-op vs bot games if they're not playing with me, and we're being thrown into games where our allies are reprimanding my buddies for their hero choices, item picks, plays and everything else while actually not being totally retarded with their own item choices or hero picks.
So.
My only conclusion is that valve's smurf detection includes some sort of IP checking and has used that to conclude that I'm a "High / Very High" player smurfing. Which then throws all our games way out of whack and puts me in a situation where I can't -not- carry if we want to win, and it's hard for me to be of help when the skill level required is to know "why void ult on a single target you can't kill when they're about to push our rax with the other 4 is a bad idea" when they're still stuck on "Why vanguard MoM heart is a bad build on Void"
I'm mad. Playing with your buddies shouldn't be illegal.

Wow Valve fucked me hard today with the daily hero challenge. I rolled Skywrath Mage and got a win in my first game, but the Compendium didn't count it as completed even though it showed up in my match history. Then I lose the next four games. The first two were games really should have been won except my team constantly threw in each game. The third game we got crushed with a score like 10-30 20 minutes in with them having only taken two towers. I took the abandon (second time I've intentionally left a game after 900+ games), because I didn't want to wait another 30 minutes for the other team to end it, and the way that game was progressing the enemy team would have just bypassed all our towers and started fountain farming us. Fourth game was an hour long grind that we also had a good chance of winning if not for some pretty terrible mistakes in the late game.
The sixth and final game where I finally got a second win (which the Compendium counted this time) was an unexpected stomp. The bloodseeker on my team disconnected twice at the beginning of the game before creeps spawned, asked what the server was, I said it was USeast, and he said he was a SEA player with 300 ping. I didn't have much hope for the game at that point, but luckily I was quickly proven wrong.
So thanks Valve for the 5+ hour marathon of Dota I played today. All I wanted was to get the challenge over with and I didn't even really feel like playing.

How am I supposed to win when I get people who goes Axe jungle for 15 first minutes without doing shit and a PL who goes for stats over doppelwalk? I played a pretty good support visage, bought wards, got kills together with morph and clock who played well, but we still get raped because Axe and PL are useless fuckers. Tell me, matchmaking. How is this fucking retarded system supposed to work? No matter how well you play, there is ALWAYS people ruining it. ELO hell is fucking real, no matter what people say. MMR says fucking nothing about your skill level. Period.

So, this was so dumb that I wasn't even mad. Just loled.
Basically, my void got 6, came mid and chrono'd me then ran away. Meanwhile the other teams mid killed me in Chrono.
This game...

Came home from work, played 3 solo ranked matches. All games were a total disaster, where our team was just raped. I said fuck that and went to a bar for some beers with friends. Came home 4 hours and 7 beers later, played couple games in solo ranked and our team owned both games despite me being a bit tired after the beers. Why is that once i get complete retards who have no idea what is dota and other time i get people who know how to play and actually do it very well?

to be honest i find that the times where most people play in your region (probably 7pm-midnight) will likely have the lowest skill level, since the average skill is probably lower for people with less free time. since they only play during their own "time zone," their mmr isn't really equivalent to people who play at weird hours (high school and college students with tons of free time)

Roll PL for my daily hero challenge. Ok, no problem. Right?
First game: Lock in PL. Guy on the other team locks in Earthshaker (of course). Team gets sort of sensible heroes. SF loses horribly to Pudge mid. Pudge goes roaming, rocks team. LC starts getting built up and gaining tons of damage off duels. We lose.
Second game: Lock in PL. Another guy picks Tinker. Ok. And a Morphling. Alright...offlane I guess. Then last two picks? Nyx and Puck. Of course, exactly what we need. Despite Nyx fighting for farm and buying no support items I manage to get some nice farm so I go for Radiance. Puck's response? "OMG WHERE'S YOUR DIFFUSAL? YOU'RE GOING RADIANCE? SERIOUSLY?" Apparently he'd never heard of Radiance on PL. Puck feeds incredibly hard (he managed 17 deaths). Doom is massively farmed. Ember gets massively fed. We lose.
Third game: Lock in PL. Game goes really well. Like the previous game I've gotten good farm and a kill or two so I look for a fast radiance. I'm hammering lanes down no problem and heroes who come after me just die. Drow is like a ninja assassin with Lothars racking up tons of kills. Doom is...well he's doing alright. Even K/D but he's died way more than anyone else on the team. He runs solo off into the whole enemy team, dies, then..."Noob PL, I should have gone radiance instead of you." WTF? We won regardless but seriously what? o_o
People are awful. >_>

Could have won so many fucking games if only my team mates didnt run solo into the enemy over and over again. I have only 4 deaths while everyone else has over 10 and all i'm doing is staying safe at all times... whyyyyyyyyyyyyy
|
Yeah there is a new way to crash the game like venge could when dying to neutrals...

Medusa and OD is my daily hero challenge, wow boring heroes overload
|
My new go-to win strategy - pick Brewmaster. Can support if team retarded, can carry if miracle, eitherway the hero owns

In my experience the worst is during the day on weekdays. I don't know if I'm playing with unemployed people, kids on holidays or skipping school or lazy uni students or whatever, they're just the worst quality games.

I really don't enjoy losing.

very high mmr range and there are still people who exist that don't know how to play certain heroes at all. worst of all they don't say anything and it's only when i wonder why we seem to be doing zero damage that i finally realise. might as well be a loss from the very beginning, no point playing it out for 35 minutes. no one's gonna call you out for saying you don't know how to play the hero from the start, just SAY something so we can swap or just repick.

I honestly can't give a single fuck if your whole team is intent on fountain farming mine for 20 minutes, at least have the fucking decency to take more than a lane of rax before doing so.
Fucking toxic game.
