Dark seer, disruptor, shadow fiend, enigma(me), slardar v Omni, warlock, dazzle, abaddon, slark lanes: safe: disruptor, slard vs omni, dazzle mid: sf vs abaddon off: ds vs warlock slark My draft seems decent and the other team looks clueless. Unfortunately the disruptor (he requested the pick) was too preoccupied with calling out 'slark' (slardar) for being a noob to actually play. First time I come to lane to gank with black hole he glimpses omni out of it. Then has a yell at slardar after he tried to chase the him down and dies. They lost the lane spectacularly, so much so that disruptor goes bot to steal dark seer's farm and feeds a kill or two to _slark_. DS fails to ward bot pull despite me pooling them to him and saying it 4 times in chat. SF seems competent but fails to have any impact thanks to mega free farm warlock and slark. Disruptor complains all game about slardar despite us almost turning it around thanks to our crazy good team fight comp. Warlock and omni get ahgs and refresher up and it's proper gg. Why do people with no idea how to play their heroes, let alone their positions in a game, queue for captain's mode? Blows my fucking mind. | ||

Why do people with no idea how to play their heroes, let alone their positions in a game, queue for captain's mode? Blows my fucking mind. Oh, you want a fucking horror story? Just now. Match ID 295703532. So I'm captain. I draft us Lina, Puck, Alch, Weaver, Nyx against BH, Storm, Visage, Jakiro, Riki. Seems like a pretty simple game, right? They can't agg tri against us OR lock down our Weaver with their safelane tri, so we just farm kinda safely in the early game, stick a Gem on someone, get some pleasant rotations to mid, and win handily. Alch gets completely out of control, Weaver gets reasonably strong, and we get a comfortable victory. Here's what really happens. One of our players starts cussing me out for not picking Slardar as our mid (I had second-to-last pick, so they'd be able to pick something with good lane control and just fuck him over hard) and I report him for comm abuse before the game even starts. Then he picks Alch before anyone else does and, swearing at me and the rest of the team, goes mid. We have to do a halfassed trilane top with Puck because I don't rally the team in time to send Weaver top and Puck bot. Now, their Storm doesn't do the greatest job harassing him, but even though he goes for a fucking max Greed build, our Alch has Treads and an unfinished Armlet 23 minutes into the game. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with the relatively low-impact support Lina because I decided to be nice and let the rest of my team pick the heroes they were most comfortable with, so I couldn't have dragged us back into the game kicking and screaming no matter HOW hard I tried. Best part? This guy claimed to be a professional. Fuck him. | ||

1st game -> Played with 2 of my real life friends (schoolmates). To be honest, I know from the very first time that they are far below par players, but I just asked them to play and trying to have a fun game anyway. NOPE, Volvo decided to give you a super duo, consisting of two guys picked QOP and Alche, and played like ultra-retards. Especially, the QOP. FULL RETARD MODE. Nuff said. 2nd game -> Solo queued. Yea I thought I will go for the High / Very High bracket. NOPE, Volvo decided to place you in a Normal bracket (I don't even understand how did this happen), puts you in a team where you have called for a lane [I asked for top from the very first picking phase, picked Alche] BUT you don't need a support! Here, a very new player who uses Anti-Mage, bought PMS from the start. Let's have a dual carry lane! And now I just went +20 from +25 3 days ago. | ||

Let's have a dual carry lane! I call that a "duel" carry lane. There are heroes who hit you, but they're not important, all that matters is to get more lasthits than your partner. | ||

Another classic way people lose in pubs is "hey we're doing great here! But where's their fifth guy I haven't seen him all ga-OH GOD SIX SLOT ANTIMAGE/LIFESTEALER/FACELESS VOID/ALCHEMIST/WHATEVER". Never, ever forget about that one guy off farming if they're stalling you out. >_> | ||

The rest of his team will try to fight it out 4vs5, die, rax gets taken out and by that point he shouldn't be too much for you to take on. Well, either that or just don't let him freefarm (unless you have a better freefarmer) | ||

They picked troll and other 4 hard hitting heroes, lost the laning phase and then just 5 men down all our lanes with their unstoppable 30 secs cd ulti. Troll is not op at all guys, he is ready for cm  . | ||

I don't usually complain about getting teammates worse than me but seriously... Early game, just a constant gyro feed train. Bad farm, weird items etc are one thing, but I just don't get the tendency to take clearly horrible, outnumbered fights. Over and over and over and over. Oh and 3 non english speakers. Time for some Spirit Breaker | ||

Second game was an all random game, 4 supports + me (medusa). By the time I got linkens, my team had won 4vs5. Did I mention that the Treant in my lane took all my cs? guess having double my attack helps third game was a game with Spectre on one team and Medusa on the other. Even the enemy Axe got into the farming mood and didn't leave hsi jungle until minute 16 or so. I just want a game that isn't a stomp and isn't a farmfest, with good people...is that too much toa sk for sometimes | ||
