We have Beastmaster, Doom, Witch Doctor and Tiny.

Other team picked very greedily so we should be fine with Tiny/WD safe lane, Doom jungle, Beastmaster offlane/mid and last pick offlane/mid-

He last picks a Legion Commander, goes safe lane even though Tiny had called that, goes Midas and gets 1 kill in the entire game. Yeah we lost.

A lot of players seem to shut down after one team fight loss. They afk farm, they flame their teammates, they abandon.

How hard is it to at least try and communicate and coordinate attacks? Without getting super pissed off, you can easily explain what order you think the team should release their moves, and who should focus who first. So many games people just give up after a team wipe. It sucks but it's not gg.

* Disclaimer *

Obviously there are some cases where a team wipe does spell out a gg, but people's discernment seems to be crap. I think we've all been on a team that has dominated early only to lose later due to sloppy playing.

In a game last night someone was flaming my team by saying "lol" every time he killed us. We eventually came back and won, so of course a long the way I said "lol" a couple times near the end just for fun since the guy was being a dick but I wasn't mad or anything.

Turns out one of them must have reported me since I'm muted for 24 hours until the thing is reviewed. Great system, truly. Playing while muted is horrible given the limited options you have to use in the chat-wheel. O well, life goes on.

Huh? I've had mutes before that are always 24 hours, but they usually only last probably half the time. And I really don't think I'm imagining things. Maybe I have, maybe I haven't. Either way, this shit is so fucking dumb when you get punished for saying nothing mean or crude to players.

ooooooooooooo well

I fucking hate this game. 5 games in a row I play with complete braindead retards. Lycan who doesn't want to do anything, including cast howl, until he afk jungles a necro 3, TA who loves diving, chucklefuck sandking who doesn't buy any wards vs nyx and shadowblade drow so he can rush a bunch of shit that isn't blink dagger. But the worst was the fucking enigma. He gets malefice level 1 and (not surprisingly) fails to kill Dark Seer, then autoattacks the wave. He also afk jungles unless he has black hole, in which case he 1) black holed some trees, 2) black holed in front of a rubick, 3) black holed while being focused by Drow and not getting Drow, and 4) black holing while being focused by drow without getting her while letting rubick steal it while the rest of our team had already died

EDIT: @Spacer I'm glad someone is benefiting from my pain

If only my allies weren't so overzealous and prone to overextending... and don't even get me started on retarded scrubs who go for nosetup-arrows that serve no scouting or zoning purpose...

Been having a shit couple of days, lost like 200? mmr.

This support Abbadon gets more farm than 3/5 players on my team, my BS was a jungler and I did basically as much tower damage as a Safe lane morph than the Broodmother did?

Jesus ... so I'm playing off-lane Doom on Radiant. Of course, support is slow to hand me obs because he's fucking awful. Game is chill and their farming mirana tries to go for 2 nosetup arrows because he's fucking terribad; easy dodge, easy life. Their support duo of Lion and Rubick decide to smoke right under the obs I managed to place because they're fucking terrible and didn't position themselves properly early on. I call it out to our mid Puck -- I had even told him that Lion had a smoke in his inventory. Puck doesn't respond, so I write it as well, plenty of time to react. Puck decides to feed, could've just sat back and stacked or whatever, but decides to cross the river... I thought 5.5k was supposed to be decent, but the kids I play with are just fucking terrible and make shitty decisions, shitty awareness. fuck soloqueue

Holy shit....... Solo que and I am the only support, I don't really care though. I am getting all the wards up, pick up a mek for our team as lina, etc. We take down mid rax pretty early and very easily, then take the ranged rax bottom (don't know why my team focused on those).

Then everything goes to shit, we have only lost 1 tier 1 tower by like 35 minutes, but the last 10 minutes consists of feeding into five one by one because the entire team is cocky as shit and thinks we won the game. This alchemist who was getting nothing all game suddenly is Godlike or some shit and this Juggernaut is also on another killing spree. They bum rush us down mid and we have a DP and LC trying to out push 5 and take the throne and we lose.

Game was so easy but this team man.............

Edit: just looked at the EXP graph, ~20k EXP lead thrown away.

Tinker actually makes this game worse but my mmr benefits from playing against Tinker than having him on my team. I just pick Doom or Bloodseeker to counter the instant Tinker pickers ass.

If I have a Tinker picker in my team i just cry myself to sleep

Zeus isn't included in the "playoffs" for model rework, but antimage, who was in his group, is included? What the fuck guys?

+ Show Spoiler +

Even if you didn't like the default AM model, he has like 3-4 awesome looking sets. In fact, I vote on the Yoskreth set as the best looking set in all of DotA 2....yet people think he needs a remodel more than zeus for some fucking reason.

I have no idea why I'm so mad at this lol

Why is it that when you get a few wins you start getting the most trash people on your team? I dont mean how well they play i mean the attitudes and outright stupidity of picks. I dont mind losing but not when your whole team is the reason people quit dota 2 and you can tell they are dumb as soon as they pick. 2 games in a row like this, i laughed the first 1 off, but when i go to play again hours later it is the same shit.
