While I have noticed this as a general trend, I've had several games that are extreme exceptions (50+ min back-and-forths with eventual clutch wins and ancient races  ) | ||

Basic motherland tactics: When you are Witch Doctor and two enemy heroes are closing on you and there are no creeps near. What do you do? Well, of course, you just run away from them, I mean no need to throw the stun and let them sit there for 5s, nah just wait till they catch and kill you. Then write some crow feet and AFK. As Alchemist you are the sole carry of the game and you must sit 20min on the bottom lane with 1/12 stats. Some times writing crow feet, just to make sure no one understands you. With AM it's best to always first blink right in the middle of the fight when void is no where to be seen. But if you happen to miss the black hole remember to let it finish, use the ult on that naix with almost full mana. Repeat this x times, write crow feet and go AFK. /end tactics Maybe if all non-Russian players just started leaving games where there are Russians. Then all non-Russians would be in the leaver queue and wouldn't get matched against them? :D | ||

I honestly think the match making consists of trying to pair people up based on # of wins and nothing else. Eventually I think when you get up to around 100 wins it normalizes and the games become a little more even because most people will be at least average by then. Before that point it seems there's a huge chance one team will blow out the other | ||

That's just how the game is, especially in pubs. There's 2 real ways to turn around games when you're down... The first is having your late game carry kick in. The 2nd is having really good team play... keeping excellent map vision, going for smoke ganks, picking someone off and then pushing or forcing a 4v5 fight. The problem is in pubs people rarely go beyond the bare minimal warding(and rarely counter ward), rarely buy smokes, and just generally don't have great teamwork so its a lot easier for a team that has an advantage to keep an advantage. Hey that is completely false and slander, I'll have you sued for this! !!!!!!! Please don't sir! | ||

You can watch pros play smurf accounts with only 30 wins, solo queue and end up in the highest level games. | ||

He's my favorite pubsmasher, sprinted bottledar with fast blink. The murder ensues on the poor uncoordinated victims. *grin* ...Oh wait that's right. If you're a troll... like that guy. My problem is people are always idiots, and I go full-rage mode activation after that and it snowballs into insanity.  I just need to blind away all my teammates and focus on my own game. | ||

I didn't notice this til I was top with him as sand king and he was getting harassed down by clinkz. He proceeds to ask me for my tangos. I told him no and maybe next time he would learn to buy starting items. He died shortly thereafter because he decided to still stay in the lane after getting to like 150hp. I think we still won the game though somehow. I might have played with the same guy, he was pretty funny, was his name look something L I K E T H I S? | ||

On the topic of more QQ. I just got out of a game where our Skeleking's build was Treads>Basher>Manta>BoTs. I actually didn't catch he had treads still til near the end of the game, but man what a terrible game. It also lasted longer than it should have b/c the opp couldn't finish our team off. | ||
