Nope, 3 people on my team suicide into their base, die, flame me for not pushing, and then drop my MKB off the courier (against a PA and Halberd CK). We only won because they pushed in 3v5 and lost half their team, and the supports staying behind died to neutrals. | ||

They're slowly being whittled down by megas, and we can just farm, either until we can decisively win a team fight, or until they try to push out against megas and we can wipe them and push.

Whats ironic here is that they died to the exact same mistake your team did earlier.. | ||

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. Even if the ennemy team has detection and you cant use vendetta, there is much more to nyx than his stun. Carapace is a good counter to mass aoe initiation, and mana burn with a 4sec cd is absolutetly ridiculous.I remember a game where i was playing void and mana burn made my jump into fights only to find out that i did not have enough mana to cast my ult. | ||

(We didnt stand a chance at defending towers so I decided not to tp to die / feed). We lost 3 towers during that time, and some teammates were standing steadily at 10-12 deaths. People drive me crazy sometimes. | ||

People drive me crazy sometimes. In your case you were probably right farming although I can understand how frustrating a 4v5 can be. I recently had a game with lone druid in our team who farmed for 35 minutes completly ignoring anything happening on the map. Finally when our ancient had like 50% health he comes back home and dies to the enemy team. He was pretty well farmed though... | ||

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. DP's spirits actually focus your right-click target. A lot of people don't know this and just leave their spirits to attack whatever. You have to be fast, but if you get a right-click command off, they won't "randomly" attack Nyx. You should also have Eul's or BKB for teamfighting against Nyx. It's too much of a nightmare not to have either vs. him to eat the Carapace stun. Honestly though, going even as DP against Nyx is pretty good, seeing as it's really easy to carapace Locust Swarm. | ||

I got a new idea. Why not we prepare same kind of quiz for Valve(I am pretty sure they fail) then they will hire some real and experienced matchmaking programmers if they lose. Then we can play some games in happiness. Why not Valve accept they have no experience on this and take some consult from outside. You just suck at this Valve, you take the game, did nice job with graphics, engine etc but really, utterly fucked with MM. Just take some help OK? | ||

I'm so sick of seeing him in so many pro games, and he's way too hard to deal with in pubs Hardly any1 gets ghost scepter in normal queue lol. I swear if it was a recommended item on more supports, heroes like naix would do a lot worse in pubs | ||
