Also, is it unreasonable to expect people to understand the basic concept of how Pudge works. At 2.2k MMR?

Basically, if you see Pudge, make sure there is a creep between you and Pudge. How hard is that?

I play mid Tinker and I have no problem with Pudge at all, yet I see guys get hooked from across the river in the dumbest way ALL THE TIME.

Is my MMR to blame? At what should a VISIBLE PUDGE not be able to hook you?

What role? I play 5 and i gotta say i look at the minimap almost half the time. I know my 1-2-3 don't watch it as often but i'm here for that.

just remind them to use a highground mid ward and they should be fine. I'd rather spend a 00:00 ward mid than having my teamate feed 0-3 in 3 minutes

I plant it for them. Doesn't matter. They still die to Pudge.

Also, there is this silly idea that simply standing "under your tower" makes you safe. I'll tell people, did you not see there were 5 of them there what are you doing you need to play safer?? And they'll typically respond "I was standing right under the tower what was I supposed to do?"

Ugh most of the time I feel like I'm playing with idiots. QQ

I mean I could have told you that from the patch notes. Haven't run into too many Ursas though.

Yeah when I'm not playing mid Tinker I'm usually playing a pos 5 support and I find that in addition to simply warding, I need to watch the wards and tell my teammates when things are heading their way because nobody is actually looking at the minimap.

Whenever they DIE though, they're always quick to ping me and go "NEED WARDS!" EVEN IF THERE ARE ALREADY WARDS!

What good are wards if you're going to never look at the minimap or listen to the only person who is??

oh man i'm with you... usually the only right answer is writing that wards are on cd, pinging the 3-4 wards (both obs and sentries) that are up around the map and tell them (litterally): "man, there are xxx wards up, i cant light up all the map!!".

i find this answer is enough for 80% of the players... the remaining 20% would complain even under a map hack, so don't bother...

sorry for the mini ot, but man, i get so mad when wards are always on cd and team complains about not having vision (if you are warding the right positions, obviously)
MMR is just a (low) number...

I lost 5v2 the other day.

Stopped playing for a couple of days after that. My team just kept feeding their blood seeker 1 at a time instead of grouping up and just ending it.

The logic was that we could outfarm him over time so delaying the game was a good idea -_______-

I've also lost 5v2, but it was against a really good Wisp-Tiny 2-stack. Still hurt to lose like that though.
