I just hit Chen and OD in my last 2 SD games (two of my favorites btw).
Sometimes the Dota gods are good.

Until valve lets you see allies options AND enables swap I will never play SD. One of those changes won't be enough either. Too easy to lose (to RNG, teammates will be teammates) before the game starts. At least in AP/RD/CM I can try to pick around my team and my team doesn't get forced to play heroes they can't use. | ||

Oh, don't get me wrong, I only play it if someone I'm with selects it. I just happened to get picks I liked for once (and also with that had good teammates who picked around what was chosen already). The vast majority of the time though it's just utter garbage. | ||

game 2 - I can't understand the skill differences. SD teammate was absolutely terrible and his disruptions did more bad than good, but the weaver mid made up for it by playing excellent&agressive. Other team had an SkeK who had like...phase boots at 30 minutes and an AM that had BFury/Manta/Butterfly/Treads/Heart at 35 minutes, but he couldn't carry the rest of his deadbeat team. After we wiped them out and took 2 raxes all hell broke loss. I haven't heard so many bad "your momma" jokes since kindergarden. http://dotabuff.com/matches/160244209 seriously look at that AM. 6/0/2, 740xpm, 560gpm, still didn't win. Poor guy, he took it pretty well at the end. The only one on his team not to rage or curse. not shown - I pretty much played 5th position in both the games. maybe it's time to take a break from dota as for the ursa guy - you can't expect to badmouth a whole nationality (that dota is pretty popular in) and then be surprised when people backlash at you. If you had said "report drow, refuses to fight together with team" they would have taken it at a completely different value. | ||

If he's good then he rises in the matchmaking until he reaches a level where people know how to deal with Drow and he can't keep doing his bullshit. If he's bad then he'll blame his teammates for his losses since Drow has 99% winrate.

What the fuck dotaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Just looked back further in my dotabuff Before this loss streak I was 17 wins and 6 losses.... Why can't dota be consistent .statistics bro - each game is independent of the previous one. Just because you won a game doesn't mean that the next one will be a loss, and vice versa. Lol....bro, each game is not independent of the previous one :D. Your logic is flawed...Anyway, there is a serious flaw in the MM system in DOTA imo. I know it sounds like whining, but I actually stopped playing because it is just very obviously there. When compared to SC2 the matchmaking system is seriously flawed. Every game is independent, outside of your regular MMR gain/loss. There is no 'this guy just won a game, we are going to deliberately put him in a team of 4 idiots so he loses the next game,' at all. Any claims otherwise are just delusional and easy excuses. http://www.dota2wiki.com/images/6/60/Timb_move_05.mp3 As for my qq...I don't have any. Yet. I'm sure the second I log onto dota tonight I'm gonna get a team INSTALOCK SNIPER DROW RIKI BS MID OR I FEED | ||

Then, once, I grab leshrac way out of position, hit him with a stun..just to watch lina use her dragon slave on the creep wave, and throw down her stun just in time for mine to run out and miss leshrac completely. He's down to 20% hp, and he's still harassing me because she's standing so fucking far behind all the time. And then team blames me for not having any farm.. "report noob mother I fuck" and all that. Especially funny when I watch the enemy team pushing a lane, and I farm as much as possible in the jungle, and even writing in chat that I plan on TP'ing back the second the fight starts. What happens? "def sven omfg noob report!"...5 seconds later the teamfight starts, I tp back, and get a triple kill. Oh yeah, and that luna ended the game with boots and a yasha. 2nd game today I pick first in random draft and grab a death prophet. Then someone picks a carry..and then a carry, and then a carry, and for last, its another carry...Suicide lane was juggernaut and dragon knight.. How low exactly is my MMR atm? It feels like one game I'm facing the equivalent of Dendi, and the next I'm surrounded by people who's first time playing the game. | ||

u get stomps, one way or the other. all my games are like, we trash them totally hard or they trash us totally hard. which always involves some total retards in either team, but hey valve needs hundreds of pages of feedback for matchmaking and still isnt able to implement a rather ok system. why not have like 10 stages of skill instead of 3, where 1 stage(high) hast like 80% of the player pool? dota 2 mm makes me want to quit dota 2 so hard sometimes.. oh and the fact that retards dont have fear anything at all, since the punishment system in dota 2 is a meager joke. i miss div league 8/ ppl there used 2 handle stuff better | ||

YOU DON'T FOLLOW A BRISTLEBACK THROUGH THE MAP HITTING HIS BACK YOU DON'T FOCUS FIRE A BRISTLEBACK IN A FIGHT NO MATTER WHAT and most importantly BRISTLEBACK IS A CARRY, HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE LANED LIKE A CARRY AND IS SUPPOSED TO FARM LIKE A CARRY Agh. | ||

The QQ: you need so little to win a pub, no one played exceptionally well, we made tons of mistakes and didn't even communicate that much (chat wheel + pings). You don't even need to be that good, just some general knowledge, read a general guide like the one purge made, think about the laning setup, know what your role is and you just can't lose. Why is that so hard? | ||

Then wisp happens and people just start feeding relentlessly, and they don't even give a fuck, like, here's a conversation between me and our centaur: "centaur go back" "no" "please go back" no reply "ok well you're dead" "oke" SF + wisp kills centaur. Like what the fuck? This happened A LOT. Still won the game, but what was going to be a 20 min stomp ended up being a really close 45 min game. | ||

They used to be the team that surprised me by winning with interesting unexpected picks, but these days they use the same 10 heroes over and over. Glad I got that out of my system, thx ![]() | ||
