...I'll say this once: NEVER EVER EVER TRILANE IF YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO CONTROL YOUR CREEPWAVE.
3-stack of idiots. Pick Rubik, BH and Jug. I pick Lina other guy gets Tide.
BH demands solo offlane and that we trilane. Fine.
I go to minute 1 stack, messed up pull. Try again at second minute it won't stack. Figure I messed up my pull again. Try again. No luck. Get sentries and deward the ward that was in the camp itself. Still won't stack. Try to search for other ward blocking but its just not happening. Their undying drops so its 5v4 in our favour.
However by now its eight minutes into the game. Our lane has been pushed to hell thanks to autoattacking. Tide is doing precisely sod all to help me actually sort this bloody camp out. I'm half way to level 2 whilst everyone else is starting to hit around 6 or so. Then juggernaut decides to single pull the camp pushing the lane even harder.
I totally give up and start trying to clear a couple of creep camps. It takes a few trips back to the shop but I finally get myself a wand and boots and around level 4 (everyone else is hitting 10). Somehow I start to catch up mainly because I'm farming whilst everyone else is playing the game of "lets dance around in front of each other doing nothing". My team starts feeding.
I finish with the highest number of kills on the team. BH finishes 1-6 from a solo offlane.
Worst part? This is in the "High" bracket. I get better games on my other account in normal. -_-

Dota 2 is so hard 
This game we 5 man wiped them like 5-6 times and could have throned each time, except our Viper would just go farm more. Eventually their Naix got somewhat farmed, and we lose one teamfight and they throned us instantly. It was so frustrating, I was shaking with anger after the game because I just couldn't understand my teams thought process. After the last time we 5 wiped them we had full health on almost every hero, and their team had no top rax and no mid tower. Also, the team wipe was by their base, and we had a huge creep push almost at their base also, so we could have throned them in 20 seconds, and they were down for 50+ seconds on each hero. I was begging my team like a little bitch to PLEASE end the game, but nope, the Viper would rather farm and everyone else was too dumb to listen to me and just followed him. Even the other team was flaming my team for not finishing, and were like BIG THROWS wtf.

well you did pick drow

FYI, the MM doesn't have it out for you specifically, it's probably trying to do the best it can with whoever is searching at any given time. That number is way less than the "currently online" figure, so you're quite likely to get less than ideal matchups regardless of the MM algorithm's quality as you perceive it.

Never had a good experience with a 'jungler'. I'm CM safe lane against NS/Io combination with Ursa jungling. Ursa auto attacks first wave before heading to jungle, flames me for not attacking creeps away from the tower (where I'd be fodder for NS), flames me for pulling the creep wave so I can get some farm and bring the creeps back to our tower, and threatens to report me for being bad.
On the plus side I got my first 'Valve has actioned your complaint' message. Thanks for breaking my report cherry Ursa.

I'll throw in my 2 cents and say that some days are just not meant for Dota. Sometimes after a few loses it's just better to...turn Dota off and go do something else, more relaxing. Like playing LoL or argueing with people on Youtube.

Or jump on your smurf and play whatever hero you want and see if you can get 100000 gpm.

I can't imagine arguing with people anywhere on the internet being relaxing...

I've gone from 120 more wins than losses to like 95 more wins than losses in the space of about 35 games, I fucking love this game
Even puck which I used to have like 70% winrate with is down to barely 55%, this is fucking pathetic

It was a hyperbole to show that Dota can be extremelly stressful. If I wanna relax I go work out/cook/read a book/whatever floats your boat

To be honest, I've never understood why people care about winrates. Having a high winrate just means the mm likes you, or thinks you're slightly worse than you are. If your wr is dropping, that just means it's getting the hint.
I mean, yeah it's annoying when you lose like 10 in a row, but what that does to your wr is kind of irrelevant unless you're top top vhigh.

I am (was) top very high though. I'm still very high but these games I'm getting now are absolute shit.
Edit: I just joined a game, we've got a tiny/troll warlord lane, both going boots first. The fact that this is very high is fucking embarassing.
|
I am very high too and the number of people that dont know what they're doing is fucking incredible. BTW when you see people with 20 wins that are fucking bad in very high, I don't really see how you can defend valve's matchmaking.

We had a good early/mid game (me being a supporting Windrunner) leading into something like a 16-4 score, enemy team typing "gg, pls finish". Our Gyro's pretty farmed. What does the team do? Farm some more, then some more, then Skeleton King decides to suicide behind enemy lines WITH A GODDAMN AEGIS, making the Roshan we took useless. Then, enemy Sven shows up with a complete BKB and Daedalus. We screwed up, but hey, the game's about even now, we can still get 'em, because Gyro is looking good as well and we can lock Sven down. ... A bit of coordination later, we actually kill 4 heroes for 2 (with sven dying and gyro surviving). Trying to push, Gyro immediately runs to the secret shop and buys A RAPIER???!!!!! Roshan's down, no Aegis on the field. Then, with two people on our team terribly out of position, we get picked off. Sven picks up Rpaier. Ugly stuff happens.
I mean, I'm not that angry, it's just... WE ALMOST FUCKING WON. If we could only push instead of just sitting back and if Skellie didn't suicide, and if Gyro went for pretty much ANY other damage item... If only. Fuck. I didn't play extra well, but I did save a few butts and landed at least some shackles, my warding helped us. But we just fell apart. Sad for the teamwork, angry at miself for not having the guts to coordinate it better. GG. QQ..

Not sure I can actually win games where I'm not playing SF

THis valve matching system is so fucking flawed
I am consistently top gold/min, xp/min and my stats are +ve (not feeding) and I always get retards who can barely push 200gpm/xpm and feed like fuck...
i just got an sk who ultied before team fight and then would walk into teamfight when his last pulse hit.. basically.. WASTED ULTI.
FUck me... fix this fucking matchmaking system so I can play with someone decent FFS
