I guess I should add that sometimes jungle picks are amazing. But like 80% of the time they are too greedy.

You have lion/slark against a solo mirana? Maybe it's ok to jungle. They don't have good roaming supports or a bh that can follow you? Maybe it's ok to jungle. etc

I do wonder what the thought process is when people make picks some times. "Oh an enemy Drow carry? Yes I think a Wraith King would be good especially if our team has a Sven safelane. If only there were three more melee strength heroes with projectile stuns we could win even harder."

Well honestly I think the issue is that a lot of the time there isn't a thought process.

I want to play doto but I'm either too tired after work or have other more important things to do

Real Life grabbed me by the balls and does not want to let go TT

And when I finally play one game I get mid DP who goes maelstrom after phase boots and a Lion who goes dagon and shadowblade fml

Hey at least you have a reliable way to play the game when you can. My technology is cursed and bound to break no matter what. Me being with no job it's impossible to fix them. So i've had to rely on using a friends computer on the weekends and binge on dota then as much as I can haha.

i go dp mid and win hard the lane against sf, with a kda that is way the best in my team, we lose late game, and our nearly freefarm safelane pa (381 gpm) blames me for "pushing too much midgame and distracting the supports from babysitting him and sniper (329 gpm)"

p.s. obviously we lost cause sf started snowballing the moment he abandoned the lane, closing at 25/5/5...

Yeah I agree. The jungle has been my biggest issue for a while now. Just makes every lane harder.

I'd assume it's better at lower levels, but at a higher level when your 5.5k Slark is getting shit on in lane because the low-mid 4k decided he wanted to afk jungle then still be useless in the mid-game it makes the game way harder than it should be. Sometimes it's ok I guess. I've seen 6k players get axe jungle, get an 8 minute blink then completely control the game. But usually I get a BS jungle who gets lvl 6 at 10 minutes for some unknown reason and I'm sitting safelane against Axe/Silencer or something stupid.

TL:DR - The jungle player is generally the weakest player, hence why he feels obligated to jungle because he can't win lanes. The jungle player makes life hard for the good players.


It's cause no one at USE 4k wants to play support so when people already pick cores, they'd rather do something useless like LC jungle than play support.

the only time they're even good is because the enemy team fails to play well in the least

if your team wins 4/5 without them doing a single thing then you've probably won 4v5 to begin with

it's actually so frustrating because actually making people not able to jungle would be pretty shit for comp dota but great for matchmaking

another part of that issue is that in those lower skill brackets the team with the jungler more often than not WINS just because the other teams supports are too braindead to make up for the farm difference or do anything useful around the map

all that happens is that those habits carry forward as they progress and the game is just a goddamn clusterfuck where there's a total of like 10 people in NA who have any clue what they're doing when they have to play support

edit: the 10 is probably closer to like 20 or 30 and includes pro players.

Fuck everyone who randoms last pick in RANKED games.

Guys, we really need a support.

Nope.

Doom.

Aaaaand he's just going to jungle all game.



Side note: Jungling Dooms need to just have their own fucking game where there are no lanes, no ancients, and no enemy heroes. Because they're already playing this game, IN OUR GAME.

It seems pretty legit in the 1k bracket because Heartstopper harass is impossible to screw up and it's not like you can expect much more from the supports.

I think I'm just going to first pick Axe every game just so the other team doesn't get to pick him.

Am I the ONLY person who understands that he blinks in, makes you fight him, puts up his blademail, and then instagibs you with a giant Axe?

Why are people so incompetent at playing against this hero?

I really hate you, and the other poster above that says the same thing and also all the guys that first pick carry and then expect the rest of the team to play support.

You're like 5th picker, and the 4 above you already picked core heroes and they're all like "OMFG PICK CARRY NOOB NEED POS 5 WARDBITCH COURRIER UPGRADER". So yeah, i random as 5th pick when i have 4 core with me because fuck you. I can play support or carry but like 99% of ppl out there i prefer playing carry.

Also picking carry first and support 5th is so counter productive that i consider the first pickers to throw the game way more than i do. So cheers, keep rushing your sniper/jugger first pick and you'll get a 20min loss

Sometimes our first guy picks a jungler and we need a solo offlaner. And I'm the only one who knows/can play Clockwerk or whatever. So I tell them I will play solo offlane if someone else can support and they say sure go for it.

THEN THEY RANDOM LAST PICK.

I play support in like 80% of my games, because nobody else wants to ever. That's why I have the right to get mad when this happens....
