I was able to spend so much time not playing this game, I come back and i just get like 4 games in a row of super super toxic people who are so abusive

I just want to enjoy the game man, but playing it makes me so unhappy, it's literally a drug. Every time I play there's at least 1 player on the team (but usually it's most of the team) that's just super toxic and abusive, and it makes it so much worse. I hate myself for coming back to this game.

Neither of my cores had buyback once the ENTIRE GAME. We threw because of not having buyback in the end. Classic.

So, why is it that all Meepo pickers have the mentality that they're the most skilled players in the world (regardless of what bracket they're playing in)? Sure he looks good when the other team is picking heroes like Antimage or Phantom Assassin, but when things start going south for whatever reason they're among the most vocal in blaming the rest of the team. Even in games I win they just come across as pieces of shit. I was running support Leshrac against a lineup of like 4 carries and a Lion. So the enemy team jumps on me first, I die early, but then they're out of position and my team wipes them up anyway. Meepo on my team fucking has the gall to say "Who picks a hero like Leshrac anyway?". Really? The guy who picked Meepo is going to make that sort of remark?

I mean, Tinker is really easily countered by Zeus or Storm, and soft countered by heroes like Pudge or Spectre.

But yea I hear you.

Our team: Crusader 5, and Legend 5 and my party, Archon 2, Uncalibrated and me, Legend 5.
Their team: Ancient 1, Ancient 3, Archon 2, 4 and 5.

Not a very balanced matchmaking, right? Well, if that's not enough, our Crusader and Legend 5 has 4/12/6 and 2/17/7 (Silencer and Drow) after a 54 min game. Drow feeded 0-11 after like 15 mins. I play Sniper and I'm 3 levels above their Zeus who is Ancient 3 after 10 mins. I start ganking but it's useless. Their Monkey King ends the game with 31/4 something. WTF am I supposed to do?

What about the other %99 of the games that he is not hard/soft countered whatsoever. Most cancerous games are against tinker and techies.

I really dislike the concepts of some heroes just because of their concepts themselves which, in my opinion, go above and beyond requiring particular picks to play against. Heroes like tinker, brood, meepo and TA can just make a game entirely unplayable if you don't have good heroes against them to a degree I don't particularly care for.

It's one thing to have then balanced that way for pro games where a lot rides on a teams sensibilities during the drafting stage but it's another to lose countless matchmaking games just because someone last picked brood.

I don't say this like I think the problem can be fixed by buffing or nerfing anything, I'm saying that their concepts themselves should be changed because left as is they'll always be unplayable against if you don't have specific counters and their current balance makes them pickable at all

pick carry
"support" player tries to last hit
I ask him to leave the creeps
still he keeps trying to last hit
I ask again, this time in ALL CAPS
our offlaner tells me not to flame.
"support" player says i can't last hit and then he TPs to offlane.
they manage to feed enemy carry
i am left vs two lane bullies and can't farm
team blames me for not having any farm
we lose and i get 3 reports.

yeahhh

Love trying to support players who have no idea what they're doing and losing despite doing everything I can to set them up for victory.

I simply can't win dota playing mid anymore. The other lanes just fall apart and it's impossible to 1v5 unless it's a perfect TA/Storm game or something.

Gained around 600-700 MMR playing offlane on my smurf this season. If I play anything else the game feels 100x more difficult.
