So let me ask you guys a question. 2.8k is average, right? So 3.2k is slightly above average? If so then why do I get shit like mid bh vs sf, jugg levels crit over bladefury (and when i asked bh what bladefury was he thought it was PA dagger), axe with no blink 35 min into the game, puck rushes dagon after naked boots?

because average player is piece of shit with no worth whatsoever. Same thing applies to other levels of gameplay until very high end games.

Enigma -> 1st lvl Malifice, goes to Lane as support ->Trilane with Viper, CM, Enigma-> proceeds to lose lane hard to offlane Meepo.
Troll mid -> Feed vs DK and abandons.

Not even mad, Team was so bad it was hilarious.

why is it that no one ever wants to play support, every game its like someone insta calls mid, then someone calls safelane carry 2 seconds after that, then the next guy calls offlane.

the last 2 people, one of them almost always picks doom or ursa or furion jungle, and the last person to pick, i swear it feels like at least 50% of the time he is one of those "CARRY OR FEED" people that refuses to play support, so he will just pick some random hero and troll, and then he proceeds to flame his team mates for not carrying him.

so frustrating when this shit happens, i swear its at least 1/3rd of my games when im mid or carry position, the supports are so bad that they make the game harder than it would be if it was just 4v5

So I random PA. Next we have too many cores. 3 now. So I decide to repick; :/. lifestealer wants to jungle and inevitably ignore a free farm lane :/

Edit; Our CM rushes blink. Afk jungles does nothing special. I just give up and don't even bother.

had time for 2 games first game i random tinker someone picks invoker and wants mid, team picks 3 more core. The best we have for support is earth shaker. I do the ancient stack and farm with soulring, however every lane lost at 10 minutes and i muted 3 players on my team.

Next game we have a lina mid, and void with the worst chronos you can imagine. I wasn't sure if he was trolling or just terrible. We were ahead at the start but after void won 2-3 teamfights for the other team they took a set of rax and it was over from there.

It is hard to get a decent game in the last couple of days... a game that isn't lost before it started would be a good start.

How is Earthshaker a core? just because you can run a critshaker doesn't mean that the hero is usually a core now.

As for the Jungling CMers - I'm wondering, do those CMs put more than 1 point into Frostbite?

A game with a Visage + Pugna safelane vs CM/Tide offlane. All the other heroes in the game were pre-occupied with fighting among each other except for some CM rotations mid. So about 12 minutes of game like that.

So with a freebie lane like that and no real harassment.... Pugna gets arcane boots, basilius, Visage gets an ogre axe... and that's it. No towers, no actual farm, nothing.

if she has a good game sense and knows when she can allow herself to do that and when not, its pretty crucial to do it as a good maiden. if the enemy has a passive and hard to gank line up there is no reason to not abuse her incredible ability to jungle because then you will start to outlevel and outfarm their enemy supports and you have a much better time overwhelming them in the midgame.

Jungling CM does mean:

- Fast lvl 2 mana aura for lanes.
- Xp advantage.
- A constantly missing support on the map.

Obviously the clowns who go to jungle no matter what, sit there for 15 mins and get a Midas while team is losing are doing it wrong.

Ya... I hate jungling.

I mean like I avoid jungling at all costs lol it's rare to find good junglers in pubs. Cuz most of them just afks in there forever and a day then come out and does nothing.

I went 13-2 as Brew in the early game but the score was still even with no one on the other team doing exceptionally well.
I was offlane with a np jungle. So I was in a 1v2 and I was winning lane solo :/

Went to teamfights, didn't afk farm. Contributed more than 2 of any of my teammembers in fights. Not enough. Some games are just impossible. Oh well I did well.

I think it's my winstreak. If you do too well your mmr increases exponentially, I think, so I guess my streaks have been raising my mmr past my elo. Making it so my team sucks and I have to face smurfs on the enemy team.

Peruvian Pudge and Earth Spirit offlane, 52% of the team deaths, constantly dying while I can't kill their Timbersaw and mid Bloodseeker enough to counteract them.

I want a refund on my mmr and time

Looked up the Jungle cm thing. Luminous got a fast level 3 going 1-1-1 and then started roaming. tbh I think it'd have worked a bit better with components of null talisman. Then he went to roam, but I think laning from there would have been fine too. W does 700 damage to creeps.

The only problem is CM's 35 base damage which doesn't matter for csing when you're the only one hitting creeps.
