Played with a friend for the first time in a while. He picked Drow after we already had a Shadow Fiend and Naix. He then proceeds to never level up silence despite facing a Omni/Furion lane, run into them solo constantly, and yell at me for not following him in.
It got to the point where he was level 4, they were both level 6, and I, the Crystal Maiden supporting him, was level 5 because he was constantly out of experience range due to deaths. I harass them to about half health, so he towerdives. From our tower, all the way into their tower, surrounded by their creeps, alone.
Then wordlessly abandons the game and hangs up the call.

So, we have a decent team, me veno, ES with me, but the point is AM leshrac on the easy lane. AM has free farm whole game, at 17 minutes he has 56 last hits... So im like, ok maybe they lost the lane, but then he sais they were winning the lane. So then I ask him, if you were winning why do you have 56 lh??? He answers, i must admit I can't play this hero....
How fucking hard is it to free farm on a dominated lane with the best attack animation melee hero???????? Ofc, he didn't buy qb.

I was SF mid I was doing my thing when about a minute into the game the LF that was jungling comes into my lane and says, "Im only going to stay until level 3." Gimps my souls/farm/levels and I end up being level 3 against a level 5 almost level 6 Mirana. Like really?

What you do when you decide to support a spectre, harass both heroes out of lane, watch him miss EVERY last hit and the last hit on the tower with only one melee creep hitting it? You steal his farm? As AA?

the fact that low-level pub games are essentially coin flips.

There is the pretty good and seen in pro games Exort/Quas build and the "OMG meteor does sooo much damage!!!" Exort/Wex build though. You can still see some Invokers that use virtually nothing but meteor and sunstrike, and it's not very fun.

Meteor does a ton of damage but by going exort/wex you sacrifice too many other things imo.

Yes, but the thing is Meteor damage is based on Exort only, so people trade the amazing utility of quas for a longer range on meteor. Most don't even realize it, they just level the two skills that you need for it because it should make it better. Or they go dominator/attack damage items and just use meteor and alacrity.

Some people in this game are just unbelievable. I farmed up Vanguard Treads Bfury Manta Butterfly on antimage at around ~45 minutes but we couldn't win because the enemy team was simply much stronger in a teamfight. Enigma ES DP Weaver Jugg vs AM SD Invoker Lina Furion. Every time we got into a teamfight, Enigma, ES and DP would simply ult and our team would just get raped, especially since they also had physical dps from weaver and jugg.

In the end invoker starts flaming me and calling me a noob for not being able to carry and getting Butterfly instead of BKB. He has 93 last hits in a 50 minute game, no guinsoo no aghanims. Either way if I had gotten a BKB I wouldn't have been able to outcarry jugg. in hindsight perhaps Heart would have been a better item though.

At one point in the game our mid lane is raxed and we do a base trade, raxing bottom lane while they raxed our top lane. Enemy ES starts saying things like "you guys are so stupid, you think you can outpush us?" and "oh well, sucks to be an idiot". I have to say, kids who badmouth the opposite team when winning are the most incomprehensible to me. It's like people are trying to go out of their way to be angry.

start, treant calls mid and shoves clinkz away.

early midgame, i blackhole four near top rune, treant comes up and ults right on top of kids already in black hole. we die.

next fight, treant dives tower to ult when creep lane isn't even pushed and we're hanging back because we're losing. calls team noob with "50% xp" and discs. thank god. i leave. gg.

fuck this game, im going back to diablo

I honestly hate anyone who gg's when they win. GG only can be called by the losers to signify that they are impressed by the performance/skill of the opponent team, nmot because you won. Dammit.

Rofl. Diablo 3 server issues, so me and my 2 diablo buddies head to play some Dota... only to end up with two DRUNK (by their admittance) RUSSIANS who:

1) I outline Windrunner to pick her, one picks her. Then I do so with Crystal Maiden. The other picks her. Just to troll.

2) They both head to Sentinel top lane and proceed to go 0-6 and 0-5 by the 8:00 minute mark.

3) We call gg early and complain about these two pieces of trash, asking the enemy team to report them, which they won't do because they got an easy win. Flame fest ensues.

/facedesk

Right back to Diablo we go. Nevermind server issues.
