Yeah, I'm not a fan of the constant "Report plox" spam...but that's definitely reportable.

Hmm, isn't a non-Jungling Enigma leveling Malefice first a good thing?

Not really. Deny a creep from your lane at 0:01 and send the conversions to farm the jungle or scout or even just use them to lasthit. Malefice @1 is only good if you are going for a firstblood, so don't level it until you KNOW you need it.

Since QQ thread: The last enigma I played with never levelled ulti past 1 though

I mean, the duration is the same but the cooldown man!

I've never had an Enigma do this, but I did have Enigma once tell me that Midnight Pulse was useless and he never leveled it. I tried explaining the synergy between Pulse and Black Hole, but it fell on deaf ears.

No, essentially (unless you are doing something really weird for first blood) - being able to deny the creep + the additional lane control (being able to nearly guarantee last hitting / denying with eidelons) is a necessity.

PGG should never level Midnight Pulse. It is the root cause of the term "PGG black hole".

Was the malefice comment some kind of dig at pholon? Otherwise I'm confused.

This just happened. We have a Pudge (me), Necrolyte, Drow, Earthshaker and Axe (Dire) vs a Weaver, TA, Clinkz, Shadow Shaman with a DS (Radiant)

Here's how the picking went, I picked pudge, drow gets picked and says "solo mid". I tell her its a bad idea because TA vs Drow is not so good for Drow compared to a Pudge, as you need small amounts of dmg (rot) to chew through her refract. That accompanied by the fact that our Necrolyte was top means she would have high survivability and the means to farm well. Regardless she goes to mid barracks anyway. I get in position for bottom rune and wait for the creep wave, she is there waiting at mid despite the whole team now telling her to go top. The game starts and there is an invis rune at bot, so now I'm thinking "Ok, Drow mid isn't so bad, we'll get first blood". I tell Drow: "Ok Drow I will go top after first blood, let TA push so we can firstblood". I get in position right next to TA ready to rot. then the game pauses.

One of their team has disconnected so we wait, and then Drow says "you know what? Fuck this. TA, Pudge is ready to rot you with invis" and proceeds to feed from level 1 until the end of the game. when we all ask him wtf he says "Last game my mid got stolen by SF and this game is was stolen by Pudge". After TA was 7-0 to this feeder the team decides to stay in the fountain so they can end the game more quickly. Now just as they're mid raxing us, the worst part happened, I got a fucking abandon because I was staying in the fountain for too long. I kept moving around because I thought that the condition for abandonment was your character not moving, not your time well spent in the fountain. Very frustrating, and i'm sure the Drow was laughing at that.

Thats my QQ.

I feel for you, got the same thing and was put in low priority queue after that..

Yeah, Sn0 got me already on this. I'll start leveling DC instead of Malefice from now on, though at my level of play I don't really think going Malefice first has ever hurt me that bad. We're all scrubs at my level.

Well then, you'll be slightly better than the other scrubs now

fuuuuck playing support, shit is seriously frustrating.

I'm Veno and pushing their T2 mid tower while all of my team is hanging behind me.
Starting to rack up dem wards, when suddenly - A WILD ENEMY APPEARS AT THEIR TOWER, QUICK WE MUST RUN TO OUR SIDE OF THE RIVER,OUR MASSIVE GOLD AND XP ADVANTAGE WONT BE ENOUGH TO STOP THAT LONE CK.
Needless to say I was squished because I thought my teammates will actually ''support'' me, the Venomancer.
Moments later, I'm pushing their bottom T2 while having some items on the way.But no, FU VENOMANCER, NO COURIER FOR YOU
As I stop to type '''dude give me the courier wtf" Pudge hooks me from the exact side spot I was about to ward to prevent exactly that from happening.....
A single word was not written in the chat the entire game :/

Look, Brazilians. You have a server. I'm not on it because I don't want to play with you. So why does it still happen. MYSTERIES.

For me it's not Brazilians...it's Brazilians who can't speak English. Like, I get it, you're Brazilian, maybe your queue times suck...but you could learn some basic English communication. I don't log in to the BR server and yell at you in English.

I should be able to at least articulate basic Dota concepts to you in English, since you know, you're playing on a US server most likely if you're playing with me.

This would be fun to do some time. Maybe on a smurf and/or when you are already low prio though because it would go over like a lead balloon XD

I don't have a problem with Brazilians. I have a problem with the douchebag Brazilians that just say random English troll-phrases (such as: "fucking noob" etc.) while not even attempting to cooperate with the team (which, unfortunately has been most of the Brazilians -- and Russians -- that I've encountered).

A language barrier does make teamwork more difficult, but (at least for pubs) most of the time the minimap pinging and drawing is sufficient.

To be fair, I really only draw penises on the map. It's even more fun when the whole team gets in the act, and one guy is drawing the tip, while someone else fills out the pubes (yes, I've had this happen, multiple times...I'll screenshot it next time it happens).

Look its not BR, or RU, or X server. Its just that most people don't communicate, choose not to or can't speak english, and are greedy. People just want to do what they want to max their fun: maybe they don't realize losing diminishes that return.

If you are on USWest, you get asian countries, mexico, and south america countries playing on your server every game. Just check all their pings, it'll tell you. Even if they play with 300,400ms, they still play on your server. On the USEast, you'll have Europe, RU, Mexico, and south america. And you know what, this is at high and very high matchmaking. I dont even know where im going with this.
