EPTI don't even know what to do in that situation. I was trying everything. I had wards up the entirety of the game and pinged and drew on the minimap to try to get them to understand. no matter what i could have done, i was fucked.

I'm talking no voice, no text, not even acknowledging the things i was saying. we had an easy victory if we would have just grouped up and pushed. I told them to, multiple times. They didn't. they kept pushing different lanes and kept getting picked off. we lost. I don't even know what to do in that situation. I was trying everything.

I just try and follow the most farmed carry in that situation. | ||

"please don't jungle" during draft leads to a junglenaut who goes 0-7-0 and blames our 10-1 mid for losing. Just because this guy couldn't be saved, doesn't mean you should stop trying (overall). I believe most of the people will listen - not necessarily abide, but at least take what you say into consideration. And even if it was not most but say 50%, would still be worth it, imo. | ||

We have a riki, a SK (me), a viper, a MK and a CM. Looks good, i bag that one. Moments later, MK and viper have the amazing idea to both go shadow blade first item. The enemy counters our whole team with one sentry. And then they buy even more sentries. Nobody can do anything, gg. Thanks guys. | ||

Just a sad reality, really. I don't know about everyone else but I play DotA to play DotA - not to try to convince some kid to play the game instead of whining/flaming/feeding or whichever they're doing that's causing them to play even worse than when they're playing their best | ||

Is it playing your hero, and doing that only - minding your own shit, basically. Or is it playing your hero AND managing your team / coordinating moves / helping with items / giving directions / boosting morale, etc. For me, it is the latter. It's not that everyone sucks, it's just that I strongly believe that 5 strangers will be much more efficient is there's some kind of a lead (rather than everyone minding his own shit). Not judging btw, I believe both visions are valid - and needed (can't have 5 people not giving a shit about the team/social aspect, but can't have 5 people trying to lead either). edit : might have been slightly off-topic here, guess it's basically me ranting -_- | ||

what's so frustrating is you cant just leave games that are waste of your time - you-re stuck for 20/30/however long with toxic morons who have no clue T_T I'd happily just take the -25 up front instead of wasting unncessary time | ||

one game at just below 6k avg everyone is cool calm and collected doing what they're supposed to do picking something that makes sense etc etc next game you have one guy relentlessly feeding and the rest of your team just aimlessly running around sigh dota would be so infinitely more enjoyable if it were a single player game but guess the technology to split your mind into five instances just isnt there yet | ||

Back in WC3 days I used to play with a lot of Swedes, Germans basically Western Europeans who could speak fluent English. Seems like dota2 is not popular in English speaking countries. =/ | ||
