I set myself a rule today of getting dagon on every hero I play and it's actually managed to make pubs fun. Just settings yourself a nonsensical rule helps to take away the seriousness you get when pubbing and you stop giving a damn when you lose.

LOL just the other day I had 4 russians on my team that just kept spamming the chat with russian bullshit.
We were winning pretty hard but I was so sick of it that I told them I would just AFK if they didn't stop.
Obviously they didn't, so I went AFK and we lost.
Totally worth it.

This sort of thing just strikes me as stupid, childish and bullshit. They're talking among themselves in their own language. There is no rule in the game that says 'ENGLISH ONLY'. How do you think they feel when a Russian goes into a game and the other four guys are speaking 'that stupid English language'?

You were winning, and they weren't playing badly. If their language is bothering you, block their chat, and it's just like any other game with 4 other good players.

You should be banned from dota2 for that sort of behaviour. That's just borderline racism.

Russians aren't a race so it can't be racism.
Ask any European DOTA 2 player who the most annoying people on DOTA 2 currently are, they will all say Russians.
They don't speak English, or when they do it's just to rage. AFK farm whole game long or go 0-10 in 10 minutes.
There's a reason loads of European players are queuing on NA East nowadays :p.

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about how so many people dislike Russians. I do find them quite annoying when they are on. Of course, I am not suggesting they are all bad. But when you have a Russian spawn as ursa, run to the other teams towers (before round even begins), and gets himself killed (resulting in their team eventually leaving). Well, not a fan.

The thing about russians is they only have 2 skill levels :
a) playing like they just drank a liter of vodka, getting 0-10 in 5 minutes
b) they play like dendi
sadly 90% is the a category

I would be ecstatic if 10% of my Russians played like Dendi.
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

Dear Lich who took/tried to take every single LH in hard lane with me (N'aix). Never ever harass the opponents, OK? An unharassed DK can't do shit at level 16+ anyway. And always go on LH'ing creeps while 2 full HP heroes that are venomancer and DK are killing your lane partner N'aix just like you did. N'aix can't kill a slowed half HP venomancer while 2 heroes are attacking into him (hell, I could kill even both of them. Veno missed his gale and I juked DK's stun, yes I did).

TL;DR: Best Lich player ever.

Playing in a pub as Lycan, strong early start good farm, bot lane is feeding but I can probably carry this. It's Dragon Knight so I'll be pushing towers while hes still ricing. Early towers go down, looking good but then we start teamfighting. This is their entire teamfight strat. Wait until the Lycan comes in to meele range, Tide hits Ravage, blow everything on me, DK follows it up with his stun which lasts like two years and I drop. Team has been watching this entire time then runs away at the enemy team in a kind of retreat/chain feed as they get picked off. This exact sequence of events happens 3-4 times in a row, except its delated by a few seconds as I got BKB. Now I run in, get someone low, Ravage, DK stun, team runs away. Eventualy they push rax and I'm just sitting in fountain.

The Tide wasn't even good either, hate that hero. There's literally 2 requirements to play an effective tide. Do you have an R key? Do you know what a Blink Dagger is?

There are non-Russians that do this everywhere. This point is moot.

People don't dislike Russians because they're particularly bad at the game or anything. The reason why people dislike Russians is because there's a LOT of them and they don't speak our language. It's natural. Is it logical? No. Is it reason to start AFKing games NOT because they're ruining the game but simply because they're using their own language in chat? Fuck no.

And 'lol russians isn't racism because russian isn't a race' lol really? THIS is your response?

Sorry, but that's pretty awful. Were they doing anything else wrong? Were you carrying them? Were they trash talking you? If you afk during a winning game and make your team lose just because they're russians and are chatting in their own language, then yeah, that's just.. terrible -.-

Enter DotA 2, queue up.
A player on my team randoms Jakiro, looking good so far...but them pudge buys his itens and Jakiro goes like :" Pudge, no bottle? lol " in the chat. I almost shoot myself in the head at that point. Jakiro then proceeds to buy a Midas and say in the chat he can't support because he couldn't farm. T_T

I think it is illogical to assume people dislike Russians for that very reason. We all have had different experiences (or lack of) with Russians, and therefore have varying reasons why or why we do not like Russians in DotA 2. Since the premise of your claim is flawed, the rest of your conclusion is out of place.

Should also point out that I did not mention anything about racism so yeah... what is with your response?
