No actually, I was queued for RD, AR, and LP.

Queue into Mexican 4 stack that doesn't speak English. Watch them just do nothing into feeding into useless item builds into I hate this game.

At least you didn't have an SD spamming Japanese at you, who went 0-8-2 in the first 10 minutes of the game, then sold his items, bought a quelling blade and dug into the trees to AFK.
I haven't had a normal game in at least a week, every single game somebody either abandons or feeds purposefully. The kicker: I can't fucking report them because I only get TWO REPORTS A WEEK. This new system is seriously fucking stupid.
EDIT: Next game - get matched against Funzii & 4 of his friends, idiot teammate picks PA and calls mid, goes 0-4 and abandons. Pudge at the time on our team was 0-5, also. Why are these people matched with me? :|

Well, that was "fun". A game of SD. No one has any great mid, so I go OD. They have Naix, but that's OK, one of my teammates picks Bane. So we end up with OD, Bane, Jugg, Omni and Lich. Not the greatest, but at least we have decent support and with a bit of smart play, we can at least stand up against Naix, Sven, Dazzle, Tide and Invoker. Not a high level game, so anything can happen. In the end, I won mid fairly handily against invoker and ganked bottom, even though I made some mistakes. ... But Bane AND Lich go into "fuck wards, fuck the courier, I am a carry now" mode. Jugg proceeds to play suicidal, having NO TP (I mean, spin into TP is one of the easiest escapes, right?). And no vision while soloing Roshan(?) with the whole enemy team grouped up mid and having the pit warded. Bane is muted but spams "Well Played!" anytime someone gets ganked or dies. Then gets ganked himself while fucking JUNGLING. Saves the enemy a few times with oddly timed nightmares. Lich proceeds to flame us in Russian, though I queued for English only. ... I can handle one person who doesn't know what he's doing. Two (and a half, Jugg at least tried to communicate and had some farm) are way too much for my nerves to handle.

Well then it shouldn't be far from what i mentioned, you are probably playing with the <5% of player pool who queued all those modes xD
So the logical explanation for the low game count people in that game would be that they have a nice mmr regardless their lower game count and they genuinely have no clues how to play the randomed heroes (they are only good with X heroes). That, or valve just decided to make a game with people who had huge difference in their mmrs, since not many people queue all those modes.

That doesn't really make sense, people who queue AP/RD/SD won't be matched only with people who chose these 3 options, that's why you are way more likely to end up with an AP game when you queue like that, because most open games are with people that have only AP selected.

I hate jungle naix, I hate jungle naix, I hate jungle naix. The choice : a lane where they get more farm and a support and the lane is heavily in our favor or let the support alone versus two which become an impossible lane and easy to dive and flame him after he has hand of midas and treads at min 20.
The choice is easy for them, neutral creeps, easier to get last hit.

I've had that happen with a zeus on the other team. It was pretty hilarious to see the guy fail even at AFK'ing.

It's hard to win games when your solo mid SF builds fast BOT's (10 minutes) into a 40 minute BKB and then refuses to fight while they take our mid and top rax: "I don't have any hp or enough damage".
I suggested it may have been poor item choices, maybe a Manta or a Shadow Blade. He told me he didn't need them because he had a BKB.
Thankfully by this stage the game was finished, before I lost all faith in humanity.

15 minutes to find a game. Game is shit.
Thanks Valve, your matchmaking is working wonderfully. Went from 54% winrate to 50% in a month. GJ, you succesfully matched me with braindead people with the hope of me carrying them. What a great MM system. This game is unplayable without a stack, I guess I need to find one then.
edit: btw since when are Russia and Afghanistan considered western Europe ? hum ?

godawful AM who naturally got counterpicked by skywrath/doom/sd goes bfury linkens
runes from 2min-8min spawn at bot everytime I check top
rune at 10min spawns at top when I'm camping bot
clinkz and nyx roaming solo in the enemy jungle when they're moving as 3-4 with a gem
fuck this game

Well we dont know how valve's magic works then, so assuming telly get matched with people who queued everything, these 'everything people' is still less than the amount of people who only queue AP.

But in lane there are enemy players, and they are scary. You go deal with that while I afk farm pls ^___________^
The only thing worse than jungle naix is when your team is so used to jungle naix that they assume you're going to jungle naix and set up their lanes horribly and force you into jungling naix. He destroys in lane, jungling him is such a waste.

Just as a got a chance to watch pro-dota again... drama.

I usually jungle him because we're going to have 4 farm-dependent heroes and a mexican SD demanding mid.

True story from a while ago:
I walk into the long lane with Omniknight (me playing Naix). The game starts, creep waves arrive. I score a last hit, he pings me. I score another, he pings. You're guessing that he's trying to get them for himself, obviously. After 5 minutes of this process going on, I ask if he could stop trying to take my last hits and keep me safe while I farm.
"You're taking my last hits, you should be jungling as a Naix is supposed to"

Fucking junglers. I just had a game with two junglers. Skel king and Nature's Prophet. So we had 3 solo lanes with me as Death Prophet, one with Magnus and one with Lich. The junglers fed like fucking crazy, NP had 14 deaths at the end. Fortunately, Lich and Magnus played like bosses and got us a win.
