Why not Treads Drums if you need survivability as Spec? Adds a speed boost for hunting down aswell. Vanguard is so pricey for its benefits imho.

it's actually the regen that's important.
spec with treads/phase + stout + RoH is enough to farm for rad but if harassed or given no space (like in pubs), vanguard is better. you cant keep up the farm without regen (which treads+ drums doesnt provide) wasting her strength (ability to farm AND be in the fight any time)

Horrid day in dota last nigth game1: team picks 4 carries, so i last pick support, buy curier, buy tangos for mid no gold for wards and fuck it if any of the others wanted to shell out a dime on it. get pingspammed for lasthitting 1 ranged creep under the tower that the carry missed. put up ward and 1 minut later pudge wobbels through the ward towards mid, ping pudge a few times and mid dont care and stay on the wrong side of the river to last hit... ofcause he dies... like 20 seconds after wards go down he starts bitching about useless support no wards and how he lost mid because of it
game2: dont want to play support again so first pick doom... team picks in this order SF > Slark > Morphling > Medusa... ugh
game3: gets competent teammates and stomps enemy team
game4: bane dont want to play the game after level 4, spends the remaning time hiding in the trees somewhere bitching about not being payed to play the game...
why some days you are just not allowed to win games, i'm no pro at dota but how are you supossed to play with people like this... it's at 4k ffs
and dont get me started on the drow that in a 4 ranged team goes Frost Arrow > Stats > Frost Arrow > Stats > Stats > Ulti > Silence > Silence > Silence ?????? why...

Managed to finally pull a ranked win on one of my "solid" heroes after those four agonising losses last night...but the guy I was laning with was a huge pain to deal with. He's Omniknight, I'm Naix. We're up against an OD/Batrider offlane duo. He yells at me to go farm and get last hits against them whilst I've got four or five stacks of Sticky Napalm on me. Look man...I'm NOT walking in there like that. I'll just die. -_-
Really, really need to find a hero to settle on for ranked to pull this winrate up now. The problem is I'm not sure what to do to counter feeding from teammates. And lately it feels like whoever wins mid just wins the game, but the few times I've been mid lately BOTH the outer lanes start feeding hard.

People who don't carry TP's should not be allowed past 1k mmr. God damnit i'm so tired of people not having TP's to help/defend stuff. My teammate being dived by three heroes on low life between tier 1 and 2? I tp in hooray three fr kills. I get dove like that? Single fucks given by anoyne since nobody has a TP. I just die for free.

You should open up with "I am going to pick techies. I have over 100 games with them and I am the top 50 techies players in the world." You have to let them know you are not one of those people who pick techies and do nothing with it all game.

Played with a luna that started circlet, courier (we already had one), and quelling blade. Ran to the enemy (radiant) ancients and cut down a bunch of trees behind the ancient camp. Then she activated her courier, and nestled it carefully into a corner. Somewhere i'm going "Okay, is this a REALLY fucked up way for luna to do ancients while using the courier to bug AI or something?"
Turns out no. After nothing happens, she decides to instead go grab an invis rune and "gank" the lane she should be farming. It fails and first blood is given to the solo enemy silencer. The extra courier is safely run back to our fountain, where it will later be used to take pudge's urn and run into the trees in our base to protect pudge from his own items.
Fast-forward to 25 minutes, and that same Luna is on brown boots, a wraith band, and a HoD (Quelling blade was sold).
Sometimes I don't get dota. Okay, you can ancient farm with anyone using this courier block method, but they clearly had no idea what they were doing, and didn't do it correctly.

Someone on my team sniped my hero I had marked on the map right from the beginning at like four seconds to go. Proceeds to take it mid, build horrible items, never be in the right place, and just keep me on tilt the whole game. I don't know how we won.

Typical all-pick "wait until the last few seconds" business. I expect some times for the other team to snatch your hero but not your own.

then you never have this problem I could (though as long as oppo goes with the mystery picks thing I won't). But the main point isn't that someone else picked my hero. It's that a) someone on my team picked it as time was running out (surprise!) after I clearly indicated I was picking it AND where I was laning b) they also sucked at it. The whole team hated them for the whole game.
Did I mention they also forced our mid to safelane after zero pre-game communication? I love guys who demand mid after the game has started. Had that happen to me in unranked when I was trying to practice a hero I haven't played much. I picked him early and marked mid and this fuck just wordlessly walks down mid and wonders why I tell him to go fuck himself when he asks me to leave.

Sometimes I think this, but then I remember I've always been an asshole, it just becomes vastly more apparent in the presence of other assholes.
