A lot of people say "oh I can only play this game with a stack" which is understandable to an extent but unless you have a group of players that can always play at the same time you're able to than you have to ask the question of whether you're playing the game at all if you're just waiting for your friends to come on or in the mood for playing. | ||

If worst comes to worst try to find friends with inhouse games or look on some of the popular dota forums for people wanting a stack and try to make friends that way. I've made so many skype friends in different games that way. | ||

One game I had this Zeus who was making sarcastic comments at the 17 minute mark about me as Antimage saying things along the lines of "well when you'll grace us with your presence in teamfights" and "I'll wait in base until you're ready to teamfight". Man...its SEVENTEEN MINUTES IN. I finished my battlefury ONE MINUTE AGO. I can't fight with just a damn battlefury!Timber and Luna did well getting ganks, etc but started to fall off against the feed. Earthshaker had a bunch of deaths, most of them from saving me or Luna from attacks so that was fine. But Zeus...Zeus just kept feeding. Usually feeding Pudge and making him unkillable. This guy would wander off to ward all by himself and immediately get jumped by Pudge or Storm Spirit and just die. Then he'd whine about it. He managed to finish 3-12-5. Oh and his items? Mana boots, Void Stone, Ultimate Orb. I think he was rushing Linkens. Idiot number 2 was the Puck who managed to get me a rare loss on Void. I get a Bane in my lane who occassionally competes for last hits and pushes the lane hard and feeds a bit. Ok whatever, its still good. And my lane is Clockwerk/Tinker. Hurts like hell but I can survive. And there's a Pudge mid. Alright, no worries we actually have wards. I have to switch up my build because there's no way I'm getting a 7-8 mintue midas now (normally go supercarry with midas+battlefury) so I'll go straight into my bfury. Make good progress. So I'm farming a pushed lane and Pudge gets haste. Run away. Fast. Back to behind the tower and I go and hide in the forest paths (Dire top lane). Then ping like mad...of course no TPs come in. Pudge makes a run past the tower and comes in after me hunting. So we play cat and mouse whilst my team very slowly comes across the map. I try to make a break for it and....nope Antimage blocks me in and I die. Then my team all comes crashing in as the other team does. They take the engagement and all die horribly. Puck whines at me for not Chronosphereing (despite the fact it would have done precisely sod all to help). Game goes on. Team is feeding, hard. I beg them to cut it out. Puck just abuses me over the chronosphere thing earlier and telling me "if you have a hard lane you should change your build, just get MoM first and farm jungle". Wait...what? I got an 18 minute battlefury after a failed attempt to build an 8 minute midas. I'd call that a fairly effective change. But nope. Keeps whining. I mute him. Team feeds a bunch more, takes terrible engagement, then gives up. GG. -_- 9-3 on Void now. :-\ Seriously I don't understand that in some games I get people who genuinely understand the need to and how to give carries room to farm so they can stomp and then in others you get them demanding that you fight at 15 minutes just before you finish your battlefury.

We won anyway since their carries sucked and they let me get fat despite several members of my team deciding to feed. Second game (-ar) Antimage, get Jakiro as safelane support, goes for the 1:15 minute single camp pull but I manage to stop him (creep wave was already in perfect spot). Unfortunately when he comes to lane he is constantly harassing enemies and pushes lane like crazy despite not autoattacking. Then sits around doing nothing while it's pushed under their t1 tower. I suggest he pull so we can start getting some xp and farm again but he doesn't bother stacking and we end up with a dodgy as fuck lane pushing to each team's t1 every other creep wave. He bought wards though. Won this game somehow too, despite being 1 man down at 25 minutes. I need to stop playing support and start playing carry more often, I think. | ||

at the end of the game I started dc-ing from the game every 30 seconds because my steam kept dcing or something? idk. Thankfully the game finished soon after but that was an annoying end to a pretty good game. | ||

http://imgur.com/BEdOTQo No matter what I say I can't get people to play well. Most of my games I have these teams that don't do shit but play LOL in DOTA. Very High MMR my ass. I have no problem whatsoever admitting I played badly but 99% of these losses in this screenshot is 99% people on my team. Dunno if I'm just getting ridiculously unlucky but previous game is even until our carry decides to literally just start walking into the enemy team. Nonstop bullshit. | ||

It's the most aggravating thing ever and I literally installed League of Legends just to deal with some English-speaking people (and shorter queue times). It wasn't even that refreshing of a feeling unfortunately; but it was relieving to be shitted on with words I can comprehend. With Dota; I wait 15 minutes to deal with every variety of non-contributory teammates. Why bother? | ||
