Top lane is me Ld mid is Gyro and bot is tide bane. lifestealer goes jungle so that he can get all that awesome less fucking farm that the jungle has vs the lane. We are up against a PL SD rub WL DS. they are doing a D tri lane and doing a good job, i do my best and go 1-2 in the lane while getting as much farm as i can (they constantly would fight my bear from getting the wave) and at the end of the game LS and tide bane flame me for being 1-4 with a LD who "rushed a maelstrom, what a noob" and i caused them to lose the game. Not that they never once came up to try to stop the PL, no it was the fact that LD couldnt solo kill 3 heros who are playing well together and constantly stacking and pulling and protecting their carry. NO! its all my fucking fault because i cant 1v3, its LD! come on! he should be able to 1v5 a team from level! HE HAS A BEAR!!!!!!!!
I FUCKING HATE DOTA! also... naix then says he is in high/very high bracket, ends the game with 98 cs in a 30+ min game. Oh best part, AFK jungle farm, Armlet treds at 20 min
"Bear" with it. I know that feel, man. But tbh, there's an old saying: "When someone decides to go jungle, then you can just instaquit the game".
I won most of the games jungling, i don't get this phrase lol.

Also feederbolt sux at invoker
I don't pretend to be good at Dota. That being said we do lose a lot when we stack
If you're looking to stomp pubs with a friend in lane, just go Centaur + Bane combo. Nightmare + Stomp + Double Edge + Brain Sap + auto attack = dead hero. Most people in pubs wont bother using the "leapfrog" technique versus nightmare to save their hapless teammate. Ridiculous combo that only further exemplifies why Centaur is not enabled in captains mode.
ive been on a 5-7 game loss streak and its everytime diff lanes feed and are terrible. I honestly dont know how people can be where they are by playing like a bunch of headless morons. with zero game sense, its really annoying.
I get put on a team with a 2 people who pick BH and riki and proceed to ignore the fact that our opponents have detection (sven + gem). I'm playing SD but every time I do about disabling people I just get left high and dry by the rest of my team.
That's all about normal for my skill bracket, but this game. We had a warlock who went mek, treads, dagon 5, and THEN ags. The worst part was that he literally never used mek when we together as a team so many times we could have gotten something done but he just refused no matter how much we asked him. He didn't use the golems to fight, only to help him run away. The worst part was, at the end he decided to chat (for the first time) that we were all noobs and thats the only reason why we lost.
I'm doubly sad because this means that I'm probably as bad as these people are given that I'm teamed with them....

We get ganked, she's bane and instead of sleeping she nukes and goes oom so we both die while she or both could have lived. I tell her to sleep instead, we get ganked again, as she runs away from a slark(not gonna get away) i keep telling her to just sleep him, over and over again. She finally does it and lives. Now she gets pissed because i "keep telling her what to do" and i get pissed because without my help a lot of times she would die. We then passive aggressively argue on voice making it awkward as fuck for our friends whom we are playing with. This happens like atleast once a night.
Dunno how we are supposed to play together. She cannot take criticism at all in any kind of way and blames me for deaths even when im not in the lane with her "you should have ganked" "you should have been here why did u tp mid" and so on. Then i´m equally bad as i cannot let anything she does/says that´s wrong go. Like i correct her all the time when she says stuff and i don't even know why. Like shit that doesn´t even matter, which heroes we are getting ganked by, the chain of events leading to ours/someones death and other useless crap.
I assume she has redeeming qualities and that this mainly presents itself while playing DotA (for some reason, this game tends to bring out the worst qualities in people).
In that case, as was already pointed out, you need to play the game separately. Having someone to stack with in DotA temporarily is not worth your relationship.
It sounds like you ran into problem #1 of a team game. Say it with me: You Aren't Play Their Position. Now, go have some fun .
-Arabic sounds a lot like Klingon -if you are one of two people on the team who are NOT feeding you are a killstealer and will be raged upon by the 4-stack of Kling... Arabs who you are playing with -despite these odds you can still win if you are playing Riki and the opponents dont buy detection until half an hour into the game

LOOL
Game makes me rage win or lose, nearly lost after going 31-6 as nightstalker because team never wanted to push together and end. Our morphling despite farming all game had pretty bad items, and viper thought he was invincible cause he had shadowblade and vanguard. Luckily...the other teams gyro and pl were reallly bad at farming too, after 50 mins their pl had diffusal and ring of aquila, and the gyro had a ring and shadowblade, so after some raging they finally pushed together and ended it.
I pick VS and decide to support my team. PA asks me to trilane, me and ES land multiple stuns on his request, and fails miserably to contribute. He then asks to be fed, so I never LH once.
10 minutes into the game, our team fails badly. The PA I decided to help then flames me for my K/D, followed by the other solo-laners who see the scoreboard and figure that being higher level makes them higher skilled. I ditch the support role and end up near their level and K/D ratio.
Been playing online games since the Quake days, I thought I've seen it all with WoW, but the DotA2 players just keep on giving.
We're picking heroes, some guy gets Naix. I have Enchantress hovered over and ask him if he will jungle. 2 minutes later the answer is ''sometimes''. The game is already starting so I just pick Rubick and head top with KotL. DK bot lane goes "MAYBE I CAN SOLO GUYS" KotL instantly goes OK SO WE TRILANE TOP Naix goes OK I COME TOP Heads over from jungle to top. At this point I'm already like ?!?!?!???!?!? 2 mintues later DK is crying HELP MEH while KotL is blasting every creepwave so we're deep near the enemy tower KotL does a stealth TP to bot without telling anyone. We give first blood top lane to Dirge Veno lane We get mocked to try harder The team is ultra retarded with the exception of our mid Pudge who lands hooks like a champ. Naix and DK get out carried by Leoric
says "mid" as soon as hero selection screen appears, insta picks pudge, goes 0-5 in 10 mins and our team plays tower defense for the rest of the game. a strong reason to take a break from playing.
why does almost all the weapon wielding heroes hold their weapons "backwards"? this is so lame. for example, yurnero, slark, gondar, bloodseeker, huskar, riki, etc. just so many of them. even the cancer lancer. why valve, why? this kills their "deadly" appearance and give them a retarded look for such grips.
