Easily threads and perseverance before 10 and getting linkens soon. One lane suffer into late game medu rape. But still dependant on the person having some semblance of last hitting skills later too.
Medusa ancient killing is one of the worst things to do as her. I've had multiple dusas on my team attempt this, and every single time it was either the enemy team easily figured out what was going on and ganked her to death (since she's at a very low level for a very long time, she's easily killed by most heroes that roam), or they just go "ok it's pretty much a 4v5, with a severely underleveled dusa. Push for win."

dota 2 mm is absolute garbage
been in Q for over 35 minutes now with a friend, we're both low level, 150k+ people online now, all modes up, USW only, had 9/10 queues 6-7 times, someone didn't load 7-8 times
If this MM algorithm can't match you with 8 other people who can load the game after 35 minutes at a ranking that encompasses the majority of players then something is wrong

You are definitely not underleveld and you are definitely not underfarmed. If they come gank you, should be quite obvious if people are missing during laning stage.

I think if you have no xp gain for 5 mins, you abandon. This is not Dota 1 where you just have to move your hero 1 pixel. So.... tough luck..

What is wrong with people picking a good hero comp and u not trying to shut it down. Think about it u know exactly what their gonna do.
This is how a metagame evolves, honestly whenever we see a good comp we can ez predict whos mid and trilane and adjust our lanes
Pubs also dont have the strong team mentality that if their perfect comp gets broken how do they adjust during the game

Usually 5 stacks can be considered more try hard especially if they are skyping and doing shit like double roaming and ganking all day. Very annoying to play against............

There is nothing wrong in picking a comp like that, and there is nothing wrong in calling them tryhards. Just a friendly dota chat , couse this is friendly game.

Russians on Australian server why

playing with a naix who went vlads first.

Every time I think I've played with the worst player in the game, someone proves me wrong
Alch started charging his stun while there was no one on the map, then cursed when it blew up on him. Or he'd run in 1v5 about to throw the stun and just die. Fucking 4 stack with their <100 win friend who doesn't know anything, so of course he isn't getting reported by anyone other than me.

Napalm needs to be fucking removed from the game. Stupidest skill ever thought of.

Safe lane doom going midas first... using it to get that 15 minutes vlads into 30 minute radiance. Best build ever. Also our NS maxed his passive first.

I recall there being options for those.

Is it just me or have Russian players tend to rage quit and complain the most... I've played at least 400+ games and have only noticed when on Euroservers that they always join and will do the following: Lagg out, drop out, ragequit, or act like they are professional Dota players when they have little knowledge of game. I have changed my servers to NA only so I do not have to deal with their bad Dota. I found it ruined so many games ruined by Russian players...
Also had a guy say for alch to get radiance, which is fine... but not when they got a specter who has Dispersion. So after 5 minutes of him complaining in broken English I told him off and explained how it would be stupid idea and that would only benefit farm but team fights would get us slapped. Idiot acting like a professional.
Finally, the last thing Ive taken from Euro dota servers is a quote a Russian player once said, "Russia Best Dota" I will never forget that. Makes me laugh still to this day.

First time I lost to Meepo I thought that as well. But having played about with him myself Meepo is actually incredibly strong and people massively underestimate him. Chain ensnares by yourself coupled with poof which is one of the most hillariously OP abilities in the game if you can pull it off (700 AoE damage if you can pull it off with all five) plus a passive slow on attack. And once you've engaged and either killed some enemies or damaged them badly then you can engage every remaining enemy at once.
Plus if you play him properly you should have a massive level and gold advantage because you can farm the jungle and multiple lanes at once. Or just clear the jungle faster.
He's only underestimated because of how hard he is to play. I've been working on practicing him in bot games so I can get my basic handling and mechanics up to the point where I'm willing to risk it in a pub and he does SO much damage. I've seen one or two people use him in pubs and do really well.
Just need to get a good build from somewhere...

Just played with a Tinker who managed 68 last hits in a 40 minute game. No Bottle until 20 minutes in. No March until he maxed his first two skills.
Oh dear.

No March until he maxed his first two skills. This part is normal. Admittedly the other two are QQ worthy.

...I don't see the problem with that skill build.
Maxing laser and missiles before march is a very common and highly effective build for Tinker and is incredibly powerful offensive build because your burst damage is insanely high at level 8 for ganking. As I understand it the "standard" way to build him is laser first, then missiles, rearm at 9 then max march. Taking additional rearm levels at 1000 MP and 1500 MP, or thereabouts.
Ok 68 hits is bad and a bottle that late would appear to be pretty bad (although you haven't mentioned if he had other items first). But the skills are fine.
Edit: And of course, ninjad by Firebolt145.
