random draft, I first pick dazzle, call safelane bot support. Our third pick Shadow Shaman pings the fuck out of me and tells me to go offlane with abaddon (against terror blade and silencer). Well, as if that shit wasn't difficult enough to deal with. The game was close until the other team managed to pull off back to back wins over at teamfights. And oh, our abaddon went for vanguard first.. That doesn't make sense tho, placing dazzle and abaddon together. Yeah sure you get mad healing power but against a silencer who will just spam Curse of the Silent and drain Abaddons Mana? I think Shaman + Abaddon would have been better offlane. Abaddon will play 4 and Shaman will play 3, Shaman can spam the forked lightning if silencer gets pesky, then Abaddon can just go heal shield Shaman up if they get dove or whatever. | ||

After 100 games it's not uncertainty, he already has played a lot of games around that bracket. In your first 10 games you move extremelly fast. | ||

Unless by similar games you mean the original dota. But that's a small percentage of the player pool. http://dotabuff.com/matches/717736595 This game: faceless and veno are tbd party. Void doesn't know which lane to go to. Veno goes offlane with bristle even though everyone tells him not to. He dives against a defensive trilane and dies over and over screaming at bristle to help him. These are players that cannot possibly win a game at this skill bracket, yet they got there somehow. I got initially ranked at 2k and stomped my way to 3k. I do not know how mmr works. | ||

Most players with HoN experience should be 3k++ easily, for example. Also people who have another dota account. Also original dota players. Hell, experienced and skilled league players should get to 3k inside 100 games no problem. 3k is really low rated. Yes, truly new players won't be at 3k, but it doesn't take thousands of games to achieve 3k. | ||

The problem is, when playing with some of my friends, they always do not focus on their role and instead play the hero like a solo. For example, lion is supposed to ward, get the flying courier and normal stuffs like that. You prioritise support over your items because that's your role. But my friend always like to rush blink dagger after boots and bottle, and only wards when I plead him too. I feel like telling him off that he shouldn't rush items because heck, he's not the one dependent on them! He has to make sure the map is warded so the actual carry can farm safely and avoid ganks. Same thing goes for friend #2. He plays centaur and axe. BLINK IS A PRIORITY. But no, he goes for phase boots, then vanguard, then for the life of me, he goes for perseverance. Time and time again I type in chat, "Hey friend #2, pls get your blink fast, we need you to initiate." He replies with an OK, and STILL goes on to farm his own items before getting blink. By the time he has blink, it's already the 30-40 min mark and we are way past the ganking stage where he can contribute the best. To aggravate this, I've been on a losing streak, and these 2 friends just tell me, "Chill, it's just a game. Who cares if there's a losing streak?" I am speechless for words. The whole point here is to have fun, and most of that comes from owning and winning. The problem here is, they don't play to their full potential, they refuse to change, and they don't treat this game remotely serious. I am a competitive guy, I love to read up guides, train and play as proper as I can. I love teaming up with competitive teammates as well, but with them, I just can't even tell them off that I want them to play more competitively, because they basically give 0 f**ks. TL:DR - Friends pulling team down, refuses to learn, not fulfilling roles properly and telling me that it doesn't matter that we lose. The whole point of Dota is lost. Sorry if I sounded like a scumbag, I still love playing with them. I just wish they would take the effort to improve and change, not just continue playing like this. I hate the feeling of classifying my game as a 'sure lose' when I queue with them. | ||

Had the best, most amazing start ever. Solo killed 4 heros before 4 minute mark with QoP mid, hit level 7 at liek 3:50. Then they 5 menned up, i tell my team: hey, they are 5 menning and allining, play defensively, stick together. 5 TIMES IN A ROW THEY RUSH INTO THE MEATGRINDER LIKE HEADLESS CHICKENS AND DIE 1 BY1 AND FEED AWAY EVERT FUCKING BIT OF ADVANTAGE I GAINED. We didnt even have a shred of a chance, we lost miserably every single teamfight. I picked up a few more kills, but it dindt fucking matter 1-11 carry alch 3-8 carry DP 2-9 axe Also fuck that hero, Dazzle. Allows this bullshit 5 men allin to work even in 5 random pubs I would upload the replay somewhere, if not for the massive profanities i threw out towards the end | ||

Can't even farm more than 5 creeps a minute -> Win game because hero is very well balanced. I know that feel bro, played a game as antimage a while ago, had 450+ cs in 42 mins, but team fed the TB so well and didn't have any counters for him. Necro goes for dagon instead of some kind of silence or disable, and just horrible picks all around with no counters to TB. Here's the game: http://dotabuff.com/matches/714800278 | ||

Oh, and of course, these paragons of sportsmanship go zeus+AA+QEvoker+prophet+spectre, farm refreshers before going highground while up 30 kills, and then fountain camp after taking a single T3 tower. What a colossal waste of time. | ||
