Also lost another game today where I was Storm vs BS mid. I somehow solo killed his broken hero, but 1 minute later our support top goes to heal and PL dies solo to Omni. PL then decides to abandon the game? About 10 seconds after the abandon I kill BS again, get a haste bot and then kill the TB/KoTL.

PL please, if only you stayed for a few more seconds you would have seen the light

Instant queue pops have become my least-favorite thing. There's always a stack, they never admit to being present, they're always bad, and they frequently don't speak English.

I should just start declining those games.

This time? Spanish-speaking Axe and Tinker lane buddies. Somehow we managed to get out-split pushed with this awesome lineup.

The guy hovers over OD and takes mid on the minimap, we all pick around him getting OD mid and being our position one. The ennemies have TA mid so a very good match up for OD. He switches to pudge at last second and when we complain says "I picked for the team". Proceeds to feed TA hard core, 10 minutes phase bottle dagger wand, I get more XP from pulls than him from mid. Add timber picked after centaur, safelane necro going mystic staff first and it was the most frustrating loss in a while. Jungling centaur was our most impactful heroes.

What are the odds of getting the same exact player 3 games in a row with with long break between 2nd and 3rd games. Won game with him on other team, lost both with him on my team. Like seems statistically improbably in the first place, and then its an obnoxious person who talks in voice chat way too much, flames constantly and is convinced his 3 aquila PA build (every game) is super legit. Like I kind of understand the idea behind it and it make PA stronger early to fight or what not, but god Im sad right now. I think I need to just wait like 20-30 mins this time to dodge him.

What's with those post-game "ez" / "ez [lane]" rudeness trend in the past months? Sometimes it's just laughable... if it's really that easy, why does it take you 53 minutes to finish the game lol.

There are few things more frustrating than losing because your carry refuses to buy bkb.

Welp. I'm done. I've had it with slavs. 8 games in a row with people who either leave the game early on, dc for 3 hours straight, feeds all the time or just can't communicate.

Hover over Enchantress all game into last pick Void. Thanks. The guy proceeds to goes offlane, gets shit on then comes mid and starts competing for last hits while whining on vocal telling me to go to the offlane that he fed.
Meanwhile, safelane Drow ends the game 0-18 with 50 last hits, less than 1k hero damage and 0 tower damage in a 40mn game.

Dunno why I even try to soloqueue.

next game 3 teammates dc at the start, ennemy team unpauses, they come back 3mn later and we get stomped. Seriously people what the fuck.

My favorite part is when they say they don't need it against heroes like SS, lion, SK and CM. I guess they have never felt the untouchable glory of running into a team fight as BKBed Sven where all they have is stuns and zero damage.

I had an alch give 1st blood to the other team in river to an ET and morph that had no rune, auto attack in lane from minute one, and DIDN"T BUY BOOTS TIL 24 MINUTES. Of course he is a mega shit talker, you just can't make that stuff up.

I figured out how to lose with Spectre this patch.

You just need your offlane to feed a Luna a 25 minute butterfly/treads/BKB combo.

(Seriously how the hell did I lose with a 16 minute relic in a pub game?

)

it's infuriating to play with people that refuse to communicate with you. I'm not asking you your lifestory, just a simple yes/no question.

A side effect of the new bounty system - people are now madder than ever at "kill steals". Actually got bitched at for ganking mid as a support. What the fuck?

Its sad that the most effective form of communication I have found in Dota 2 is drawing an arrow on the map over and over until people figure out that we should push that lane.

The most effective form of communication I've seen in dota is someone playing well.

Then everyone who's at all uncertain what they should be doing just follows their lead. Like ducks.

oh lawdie
its either I pick slark wk or spectre because any other hero is just a loss.
Kunkka dies 5 times within 5 minutes to a morphling, says its "his second-best hero". we come back slightly, but luna doesnt tp back when she's poking at t3 tower of dire and morphling takes 2 rax for free that I have to solo def (impossible).
My god this game was so disgustingly awful jesus christ I literally threw up afterwards

Oh, just take a look at that Kunnka dude profile, with those kind of kda on cores you just need to pray that he won't pick a mid in your match or you will have to drag his fucking heavy ass thru your game.

I only type that if the game was barely won, mostly for the irony in the statement.

Atleast it's better than those smug cunts who type "gg wp" in a 40-10 25min stomp game.
