auto attacking! auto attacking everywhere!

I random Troll. Next picks are NP and Naix. Picks 4 and 5, after some consideration it seems,
Void and PA.
Honorary mention goes to Lifestealer who dies to a junglecamp in minute 1.

that's the thing, even auto attackers get more farm than that, it was a 40 minutes long game. And she knew how to last hit, it's why I let her free farm. I left her alone and every few minutes would glimpse at her direction, see how she's doing - she always had 1300~ gold. I'd keep playing, look at her again later - same items, 900 gold. "Maybe her stuff is on the courier" I thought - nope. Well, whatever, keep playing
few minutes later, same items, 1000 gold - ok this shit is getting ridiclious.
That kept happening until the very end when they took our entire base. My guess is that she...just kept dying whenever she got close to buying whatever it was she wanted, losing all her unreliable gold.
the game before that, the Warlock on my team got Aghs-Refresher about 20 minutes in, and he was solo suicide.
Matchmaking why u so up&down

get out randomed in ar, bestest swede player gets refresher on pugna, throws game. #dtbgaming.

Matchmaking is really killing Dota 2 for me, fucking bot systems on garena/battlenet were way better than this. I understand the Dunning–Kruger effect and it might be just me, but this is really frustrating.
I went from playing 10-20 games a week to playing 1 game a week and deciding after each weekly game to stop playing. I don't want to sound like conspiracy theoryst but it seems to me that matchmaking solution for huge influx of new players is to shorten the wait times by fucking players like me.
I have just played a game where I went 7-0 on QoP mid in minute 15 where I completed my Schyte and still lost due to being teamed with 4 people writing in some nordic language of whom no one had even remotely positive KDA vs a 5 man stack of players around the same skill lvl as my team mates but with normal picks, warding, etc.
This happens maybe 1 out of 3 games I play, really hope to see some changes in matchmaking.
It seems to me that this game is going the way of sc2 for me, watch it, don't play, it's to fucking stressful to play.

The game is really shitty right now. So many blatantly overpowered heroes like PL, Nyx, Batrider, Wisp (plus Centaur/Troll Warlord in pubs) make picking anything other than flavour of the month heroes a total waste of time.
It used to be you could play virtually any hero as the difference between the good and bad was easilly overcome by skill but right now the gap between the overpowered heroes mentioned above and the average hero is way too big.

Why is it stressful? I mean, I lose all the time, but I still want to play that next game. People are fucked in the head, there's nothing Valve can do about that.

Yeah, I am currently in another game just like the one I described above, only this time they (5 man stack) are much better (400 games + all of them, it's minute 21 and it's 7-21).
I got my ass handed as Invoker by a really good batrider mid (it was all random) and I they have all towers at the minute 25.

It's stressful because I play games for fun, and it's not fun when every other time you watch as you inevitably lose for 40 minutes and than take 10 more minutes of imbecilic 5 man stack that you can individually wipe the floor with camping your fountain and going U MAD?
Ever since the after game rating system came I was not able to say that I have enjoyed a game (cca 6 of them) more than 3 stars, and that is very frustrating because I love the game and I'd love to play it more, but after a few games like that it makes me wanna slit my wrists instead of pushing the find game button.

So it's fucking windows update day. Like always, tap that "postpone for 4 hours button." Later that day, log on as normal and do my regular shit, windows says nothing. Load up a game of dota then fucktarded windows decides that it's fucking time to shut down my computer and spend 10 minutes installing all the updates. No pop-up or anything. Just a straight fucking shut down. When that peice of shit finally turns back on, my mouse isn't working. Dota game is fucked for me and team. Why the fuck would you make and OS like this. 0/10. Would not recommend using. Uninstall right away if you know what's good for you.

disable automatic update and boom problem fixed.

Stop letting those heroes dominate you? All of them (aside from PL really) can be countered easily. Vision stops nyx, BKB or counter init on bat, wisp you can just aggressive lane against preventing him from getting level 6. PL well unless you keep him dead all game he's going to eventually reach the stage of stupidity that AM used to be able to get.

About countering PL: He hates cleave (Sven does not care about PL illusions). But it's also true that you have to keep him from farming by ganging a lot/push towers early and gain map control.

Sven, Agh-Tiny, Gyro...
Heroes that can make their own PL illusions - DS, SD, Morphling, Ench(I think), probably more I'm forgetting

I've seen far too many Svens try to manmode up to PL and just get raped. Then again most of those times there was already at least 6 illusions before the fight even started but still.

Even making an illusion of his illusion doesn't help too much. His will still multiply while yours doesn't.

I think I have about 10 losses in a row. Way to spend my weekend...

Well I might just be lucky but even coming from behind in a game, if I manage to get decent farm I could always manmode Sven against PL. I literally A move and win. Those Svens you see probably not using ult/stun before engaging I think. I've wrecked PL or get wrecked as PL by Agh-Tiny as well, dat cleave.
Afaik SD illusions can make their own illusions. I think DS illusions do as well. Don't think Morph does. Could be wrong.

More funny than QQ
I some how survived a 2v1 gank in bottom tower where my carries died and I'm on 20hp, and some how i ran out of the melee... I was confused... as I was with in their range attack...
As I stroll back to base, i type in chat asking why they spare my life... as soon as I did that, some one start pinging mid where zeus is pushing... then 2 sec later it all made sense... much laughter follows...
