for people stuck in the normal pool:

create a new account -> only TA for 30 games -> enjoy urself in very high pool

read this on reddit and it absolutely worked for me. games are much better now.


Cmon man, by your logic you can get to very high pool on your account by doing that strategy. No need to create a new one.

Also noone do this, every game in very high where someone picks TA there WILL be a counterpick. At least in SEA batrider/qop are EXTREMELY popular and you will get stomped.

True story. Very high players pick like tryhards. I dont even know if their having fun playing naga, ta, lycan. Very hard for me to understand how those heroes are fun. Very few solo q'ers aswell. Most of the time your gonna be put up against an Antimage with some hardsupport playing his heart out.

k so with the upcoming sniper buff, i decided to practice him a bit. i choose him quick and declare "mid plz". about 30 seconds later, one of my teammates picks pudge. i give it a worried glanced and repeat "middd" to make sure he understood. now i know sniper doesnt have to mid, but i think it was fair given that i called it first and he could have easily picked any other hero. anyways, he buys the courier and comes mid. i tell him i already called it, and he calls me a faggot and tells me to go top. he declares that he bought courier for mid. at this point i realize the kid has down syndrome and any further arguing would be fruitless, so i head up to top. to my dismay, i realized i'm alone. we have a broodmother on our team at bot with visage and a jungling chen. i tell bm to switch because he can easily handle a suicide lane. he just ignores me and says stop acting like a kid.

so i see who i'm up against. pl and aa. fuck me. two long ranged slows. so i have no choice but to hug the tower and get almost no farm. after a few levels, even hugging the tower wouldnt cut it. they would simply dive and kill me hard. this happens 2 more times. i beg for a lane change or least a gank. visage at bottom responds, "pudge isnt ganking top because you were an ass to him".

at that point i just alt-f4ed. back to sc. fuckin clowns.

This is part of the reason why you dont first pick like that in pub games.
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

Agreed, in any case where I want a specific role I just highlight the hero, call it in chat but never hit pick. Can never trust anyone and you're better off swapping roles and getting a win than arguing for 10minutes, sharing xp and being underfarmed.

Even when I'm not after a specific role I don't hit pick till the timer's counted down

Rubick player...

We are chasing a red life hero, he telekinesis and insta-land AWAY from us chasing because he thinks he is pro and wants to stun a full health enemy hero while not actually stunning him. Suffice to say both of them ran away and 3 heroes chasing was a waste.

Whole game Rubick does not steal much spell nor use it on enemy.. Well.. still OK.. no biggie

Late game scenario, void jumps in and catches 3 heroes in chrono. Rubick proceeds to steal chrono and use it on the same fucking spot for dat double chrono. Team wipe ensues and if you havent guessed, many a temper flared and heated words flung around.


So much rage.......................................................

no, Poof only gets really good once you have clones. If he skilled all his other skills before his ult then he's pretty much useless for the first 20~ minutes.

I used to always pick last in pub games, to determine what was needed. what usually ended up with was me playing a 5 and buying all the couriers and wards and being broke all game. i do care about winning, but i'm tired of being the bitch and depending on scrubs to carry for me. so i have a policy of not giving a fuck anymore when im solo queing.

I can sympathise with this stance. Last night I was CM playing hardsupport. I bought the courier and all of the wards AND sentry wards literally all game long because we were facing Gondar (seriously, nobody else bought any kind of detection ever). I was utterly reliant on my team to actually win the match because I had no power and was totally broke all game. They managed to throw it despite us doing well for a while by repeatedly taking really bad engagements or a couple of them wandering off to jungle when we're trying to push leaving us with a 3v5 teamfight disadvantage.

When it comes down to it if your teammates are bad theres literally nothing you can do in such circumstances. You can carry a largely useless team to a win but you can't support a largely useless team to a win.
