WHHHYYYYYY
We still won, but fuck. Why choose am if you can't last hit. The hilarious part was that he had the full set of rares for him, too.
Well, then he obviously wins by default. It's called skin-win.

Honestly a 25 minute bfury's not even bad by pub standards. There are multiple 40 minute bfuries in this thread. There are multiple 40 minute bfuries on drow in this thread.

thats just sad 
but if you play at a certain level you at least expect a 16 to 18min battlefury.

Commend/Report chat spam is out of control. Valve making begging for commends/reports a reportable offence would be the best thing to happen to this game.
I've reported a couple people for text abuse with "commend trading" as the reason in the comment box. A day after I submitted the reports the game told me that someone who I reported got punished.

Last night I had 3 games won by the whole opponent team leaving.
The third game, the other team had a noob Clinkz that fed so bad making the other team leave.
The next game I had, that Clinkz was on our team, and he was the reason the opponents veno got fat early (seriously, I think it was a level 14 Aghanim). During the end game, we had the chance to win the game cuz our Nevermore got fat and we got rid of an opponents Gem of True Sight. We were pushing mid while Clinkz was pushing top. We tried to stall and keep the opponents engaged for as long as we can to give Clinkz time to push. He was the one who was pushing cuz he can just wind walk out if the opponents come. However, he was pushing so slow, I don't think he was even using strafe. Eventually, Nevermore helped him push but Clinkz was so noob they failed to make the top lane mega creeps (and both rax were on red).
Eventually Nevermore cursed him using Filipino cuz he was that pissed. It was kinda funny cuz I was surprised and there was another Filipino in our team and they both bashed Clinkz in english. Poor clinkz.

Two wonderful games last night and by wonderful I mean "oh god WHY?"
First game the draft (random draft, Dire side) went like this:
QoP (me) + Void, Bristleback + Tiny
Ok. We got a mid (me), we got a hard carry (Void). Bristle and Tiny can go offlane I guess because although they're probably not the best offlaners at least they've got decent survivability. But Void could really use a strong support. Venge is still in the pool and I mention in chat that it'd be a good idea.
Nope. Picks OD. Goes offlane.
Facedesk.
After everyone on the team has a "WTF" moment and asks him what he was thinking he makes the excuse that his girlfriend was distracting him by talking to him. Which became his girlfriend was on the phone to him throughout the game. Which became his girlfriend was performing sexual acts upon him. All of which apparently excused picking OD and then building it as follows: E, Q, E, Q, E, R. Then buying boots and starting to stack Null Talismans.
By the end of the game I don't think he'd taken a single point in Astral Imprisonment and had naked boots, FOUR NULL TALISMANS and a Staff of Wizardry. Tiny ended up playing hard support and got utterly thrashed unfortunately and Bristle didn't manage to get much of anything done either thanks to the OD. I managed a couple of ganks but it was a really sloppy game. By the time we were teamfighting I'd just get no kills and instadie after dropping my ult and a scream, Void didn't have the items he needed and Tiny couldn't get the items he needed up to deal with PL.
I mean hell, I played bad. But this OD was an a whole other level of just...wtf.
Next game. Firstpick on our team Morphling. Next Warlock and third guy gets Chen random. So I figured hardcarry morph safelane with Chen in the jungle. I pick Zeus to give us a solid mid from the available selectionn (it was a really bad selection to be honest). Morph immediately throws a wobbler because apparently he was taking mid and "it should have been obvious". I calmly point out that Morph is flexible in his laning so him not actually specifying was completely useless.
He eventually begrudgingly lets me go mid with "you better not feed".
He manages to feed three to the lane he is in in under ten minutes. I get myself three kills in about 15 as well as forcing their mid troll warlord to walk all the way back to fountain to heal two or three times before he ended up giving up on laning entirely.
Glad I didn't let him feed troll mid right from the start. Although we ended up unfortunately losing. Our Lifestealer carried hard and well but Morph was a total liability. Chen literally didn't know what he was doing because it had auto-randomed it for him and he'd never played it before. Plus the combined stun of the other team just murdered us (Witch Doctor, Troll, Earthshaker, Slardar, Venge; literally every hero on their team had some form of stun, troll passive and the rest spells).
At least I ended the night on a good game. Solo offlane Windrunner vs a Lycan/Timber combo. Harrassing all day long, coupled with a couple kills on Timber transitioning to a support style for teamfights. Shackle/Powershot too strong.

This OD build is perfectly legit, his aa really hurts early with this build.

Sounds doubtful, the whole reason OD dominates 1v1 lanes is Astral. You're not going to have the mana to spam Orb until you have Aura maxed out anyway.

I don't know why, but when I random a hero I have like 60% winrate but when I'm feeling it and picks the hero I want, my winrate decreases to 30%. God must be playing tricks on me

I know what you mean - I do disproportionately well with new heroes in AR, then try the hero again in AP and fail miserably.

It was not 1v1 from what he said & E is aura so he indeed maxed aura 1st.

Get a whole lane to myself..Huskar calls jungle...Sweet Carry silencer.
Team buys no wards , Mid gets ganked for a miss I reported (I'm raping tiny and storm 1v2 so storm ganks mid) and we lose the game due to constant ganks on me by bounty hunter and mirana ult.
Huskar calls "Why doesn't our silencer have a forcestaff"
Me "Remind me again who brought all the sentries , Observers and gem and still has more farm than you?"
Huskar "Remind me again who upped the courier"
.................

Because in AR, your opponents are playing heroes that they have no idea how to play too, whereas in AP, you are picking a hero you are not very experienced with, against a guy who's played naix 250 times.

Or you get 5 carries, and the opponents get 5 heroes which are all very good, amazing synergi, and all have played before. All my AR games have been completely one sided, one way or the other.

I know this isn't helpful in hindsight, but if you see that the rest of your team isn't doing too well and you're dominating your lane (especially a 1vs2 lane), just screw buying the sentries/wards and start ganking motherfuckers on left and right, especially on Silencer who's BRUTAL early game if he gets rolling

On a tangential note, I swear randoming isn't truly "random".
My main account randomed things like Bloodseeker, Spiritbreaker, Chen, and Sniper on a frequent and (highly) statistically improbable basis. One smurf gets all the supports. This one gets Weaver, Gyro, and Chaos Knight.

queing with 4 ppl is risky business. 75% of the time you get a handicapped 5th.

Can your stupid wards fly? DIDN'T THINK SO!

sad....usual qq, every time I go on a winning streak, it's time to get retarded allies again,
I guess I kinda should've dced when I saw medusa being picked. That never ends well. She calls mid, and goes ring of basilius first, and maxes mana shield.
Meanwhile afk player comes back and picks drow, never takes silence, and is shadow blade rushing, after going boots first.

This is a warning to everybody that reads this:
If a player named "LareBear" is on your team, LEAVE THE GAME.
Do yourself a favour and save yourself 30+ minutes of annoyance. He picks Lone Druid every game, and calls mid. He then proceeds to wait until level 14-17 to skill his ult. Even while playing vs a team with Puck, QoP, and Nyx.
Oh. And he builds Mek on Syllabear, when there's a WR/Rhasta on his team.
*sigh*
