When I played BW/SC2 I would find the weakest point in my play and just focus solely on that for like ten games or something and ignore nearly everything else and then come out much stronger in that area overall, but for some reason that seems a lot harder to do in Dota. | ||

If that is the method you prefer to take, I would suggest playing the same hero, or at least the same role for consecutive games in order to focus on certain parts at a time. It will be less fun, but if you really want to improve and that is the methodology that works for you it should help. Another thing that has really helped me in the past is watching pro player streams. If nothing else it can give you a fresh perspective on how some heroes can be played in a (hopefully) efficient way. | ||

Maybe, but tbh once you get the Ring of Health + stout shield you can jungle without worrying about dying to creeps and just use your mana for devour. This comes online way before your tranquil's would, and doesn't cost you mana. The bottle just seems like a waste of money because it's going to fall off very quick with little return IMO for a jungle Doom. | ||

A few seconds later I get ganked by I think it was a night stalker. I ask our mid where the missing call was. He said the missing call was this mysterious "mmm." Apparently it means Man Missing Mid. You learn and rage at something new every day. | ||

after losing the previous game from repeatedly getting 3 man ganked mid as sf while the sidelines farmed but subsequently failed to do much, that was it. not worth putting myself through more trauma. | ||

The bottle just seems like a waste of money because it's going to fall off very quick with little return IMO for a jungle Doom. Tranquil effective regen is actually much higher than RoH though, and the crucial bit is that Tranquils gives you a lot more MS AND armor, 2 stats you desperately need. An RoH Doom can pretty much only dead-farm jungle which just isn't very good in pubs because you need to help your team start winning early. Tranquils Doom can gank with a consumed Ursa, Centaur, or Troll, because with the MS advantage of Tranquil's over any boots other than Phase or Travels, you can set up the close range disables. Bottle is not wasted on Doom because of how mana-gated the hero is, the Bottle is still good all the way into the midgame and pretty much every Rune other than Illusion is good for Doom. | ||

Game 1: http://i.imgur.com/4Gp3cx6.jpg Single Draft, get Naga, doing pretty well even if Rubick refuses to stop contesting my last hits, should be able to win this if we can keep PL down and actually push, oh wait our Brew has bought 6 Stout Shields and has gone Woods. gg Next game after that: http://i.imgur.com/XbsJFOY.jpg Single Draft again, grab Bane to support a bot tri lane, team tells me to go mid vs Bloodseeker instead while they 2/1/2 it, fine - hardly ideal but I can do that and WR and Lion can be supports for Clinkz and Jugg respectively, shouldn't go too wrong should it? WRONG!!! HOW ABOUT 12 DEATHS BY 10 MINUTES FROM TOP AND BOTTOM WITH NO BLOODSEEKER GANKS WHILE I'M THE ONLY GUY WHO CAN GET A FUCKING KILL ON MY TEAM!!! OH AND AS A BONUS LION AND WR CAN'T EVEN BUY A WARD BETWEEN THEM. FUCK. SAKE. I think the moment I lost all faith in humanity is when I nightmared Abaddon, Windrunner proceeded to immediately power shot him then throw the Shackle as nightmare ended except it obviously didn't latch as she'd just fucking power shotted the trees. I don't even have a comms ban but I can see how people get them. WHY DO THESE WANKERS EVEN PLAY. | ||

I literally had a guy who was auto attacking in lane last night. That's got to be. . .like. . .bottom 20% of players or something, if not worse. Not wishing to be a jerk or anything, but there is definitely a LOT more Cyrillic in chat now. . . Guess I need to stop sucking and start winning or something. : / There are things I can handle and things that I cry inside when they happen. If my ally misses every last hit, whatever maybe it's a new hero or he tried to get away with less stats, but it can happen. When my ally auto attacks, that's just not knowing how to play the game. I wish that the DOTA MMR system had a way to check if people auto attack creeps within the first few minutes of the game and immediately cut their MMR in half. | ||
