Seriously.
I don't get Medusa who go ancient level 1 with Obs+Quelling Blade and then go afk farming.

We playing 4v5 throughout the 20 min.
And thank god we were able to own the opposing team somehow.

It is very hard to deny Magnus.
People can say QoP can dominate him and I agreed before Mag starts to get his bottle.
And with bottle-crowing,spamming to get shockwaves over and over again.

Magnus doesn't win lane or lose lane.
And he is definitely gonna get farm and levels and can have a big impact during the mid-game.


I get it, its just that pubs are retarded.

The medusa ancient farming technique you described is actually really strong. However, it requires a good offlaner and good map control to pull off. Something which pubs 99% of the time dont have.

If you do it right though. You'll come out of the ancient farming at around ~7 minutes with boots and roughly 800 gold + a level advantage. From there you can put medusa on either mid or safe lane to continue farming.

But again, dont do this is pubs, its not going to go well

The most depressing thing about MM is when you realize the average human is a fucking retarded piece of shit with no worth whatsoever.

@ SEA server

bat, lion, drow, troll and me as ench radiant side,

7 minutes in, bat lion and drow have died 1-2 times each, bringing the score to 0-5

maybe 10-15 minutes in, i see lion in mid alone with the fed viper, drow dies again to nyx or something, then bat dies alone in top lane to the whole enemy team, so i say

A: "lol dont be alone"
Bat: "stfu" "u dont act pro ah"
A: "..wtf chill i didnt even insult you, just offering some friendly advice. ill take your advice too if you have any to give"
Bat: "u think i wan die? drow died here too"
A: "yea so maybe everyone should play safer then"
Bat: "stfu all you do is heal and run. report u"
Lion: "yes report alf"
A: .......................

ya...do it. you need to spreaad the word. so people will stop making retarded posts about "how bad this MM" is and how stupid valve is. people need to realize that retards are everywhere in every skill pool and that you cant create a MM system where you wont get matched with braindead idiots....even the pros with the highest ratings sometimes get braindead zombies. but not because the MM system is flawed (i dont say its perfect though). its because humans suck....

Well to give you hope, once you reach higher mmr people are more friendly, communicate more but are not really better at the game. It just takes this extra will to play as a team. Not that there aren't assholes from time to time but way less than in lower mmr.

It's really annoying when you get some guy who nitpicks every single mistake you make. Was playing Clock, got to go mid, got two kills on the Invoker and did a couple of good ganks, so things were going well. Then I miss one or two hooks in a row (one of which was because KotL walked right in front of me) and Gyro starts bitching at me. Also him and another guy start yelling at me to initiate when my hook is on cooldown. So that helps put me on tilt a little so I start missing more hooks and misplacing a few cogs, so he bitches more. Thank fuck I wasn't playing Pudge.

[EDIT] Actually something weird happened at one point in that game too. One of my hooks got blocked by a charging Spirit Breaker in the fog, but it didn't interrupt him.

Finally it's come this far: I have just deinstalled DotA2.
Since the introduction of the match rating system I gave a couple of 2 stars, less than five 3 stars and i believe one or two 4 stars, rest was all 1 star. I came to ask myself "wtf am I doing with my time?" more and more frequently.
Every week I was pumped for the patch to come out, I follow the competetive scene and (less so) the cosmetics "scene". I can not wait for TI3, but I just was not having fun with this game anymore, or at least the moments of frustration outweighed the fun by far, and seeing as I don't play to become competetive or anything I should use my free time for something where I don't ruin my mood.
Yesterday I lost a match while soloqueueing (I usually play with at least one friend) to an enemy team who picked a nice lineup without tryharding too much, my team did it's best to hold against it and we got a couple of nice fights, but we still lost by a considerable margin. Since everybody communicated nicely I had fun, and I laughed at how much fun even losing can make und the right conditions. Very, very few matches are like that one tho, and even most wins (somehow I managed to still have a positive w/l ratio after >900 games) leave just a bitter taste in my mouth.

I'll probably be back, I know... but let's see if I actually miss this love-hate relationship of a fucking game.

Nyx can go outright FUCK himself.

Random DP and go mid vs Nyx. I don't do extremely well mid, but I'm not doing bad either. He returns around half of my nukes, and the rest I get through by faking a lot. We go about equal into the midgame (both in lvl and farm). I go gank a bit, and he goes gank.

Then starts the teamfights. Oh my fucking god how desperately fun it is to play against nyx with DP ulti. He goes out of control by simply sitting in the middle of the teamfight and press a button. On our team is a kunkka who never ONCE hit with his boat or torrent. He has a lone battlefury 30 min into the game..and then NEARLY another one at 45 min when we lose the game.

And then what happens? Nyx starts mouthing ME off! Apparantly I lost the whole game by going equal with him into the midgame. By not utterly dominating my lane, in his mind I lost us the game..and he still thinks Nyx is completely not broken in the least?

Seriously, if I wanted to win 9/10 of my games I'd just constantly pick Nyx. But Im really tired of seeing him and PA in every fucking game I go into.

I have the same amount of trouble with nyx. He goes mid, plays like shit, get absolutely no farm barely hits level 7 then proceeds to completely warp how the game is played. The supports literally can never be by themselves. If he gets an early dagon you might as well just sit under a tower all game if your playing a squishy hero. Even fed heroes better be out in 2's. Hero needs a nerf, its getting pretty stupid.

Just because nyx owns in pub games dosent mean hes OP. It is very easy to deal with him if your team works well together and buys sentries.

If you nerf him, he wouldnt even be used in competitive games anymore.

He's just bad hero design. Yea, you can counter him by staying together and warding, then his only contribution to the game is a pretty good stun. Otherwise he snowballs and just dominates everything. That's it. He is either irrelevant or absolutely everything, nothing in between.

The entire design of the hero is to prevent you from interacting with him. He is built to burst down heroes and kill them before the initial stun has warn off, and if the target lives, or there are other heores around, the carapace forces you to not interact. Why would you make a hero that is designed to not allow players to play the game? Arguably there are other heroes that encourage inaction (naga and silencer ults come to mind). But not only is that not the entire motif those heroes are set up around, but that inaction is used to set up more action. Nyx's inaction is either to end combat instantly (stuns/nukes) or it is to prevent combat form starting in the first place (carapace/invis).

I don't care if nyx is imba or not, and I'm not explicitly saying he is. The numbers associated with the abilities isn't the problem, but rather the nature of the spells instead.

some people are very nice human beings irl and the opposite in game. Sometimes people just channel their anger thru gaming. Deal with it :D
