ET doesn't nede to hit ults. ET just needs to maintain aura on the enemy team and you win every fight. Hero is dumb as fuck.

Weird, around that time is when I (usually) get the best games. Worst was like 3-4 in the middle of the night with abandons. Every. Single. Game.

I used to solo Q a lot in the US (EST) and I found that the game was fine until I started queuing after 22:00. After that the flaming and feeding was so bad it drive the dalai lama to ragequit.

This is the funny thing I realize about people in pub dota2. They follow everything pros do blindly like sheep without realizing the reasons for doing so. I remember some people flaming the shit out of me because I chose to go aura over maxing stomp on ET mid a while ago. When I questioned why, the reason was typically because nobody does it xD. Logically, maxing stomp mid against certain heroes does absolutely nothing for you. Basically majority of pub players have 0 clue what they are talking about, and should be muted immediately once you realize you can't reason with them.

So I did. I also forgot OD pickers.

The common thread between them is that when you have one on your team, you're screwed, but if the other team has one you are also screwed.

Single Draft and I have PL and Alc to choose from, nobody else has any really good carries. Should be fairly easy if I get farmed on one of those, right? Wrong, I had one of those rare games that even playing PL and having a fairly clean first ten minutes can't outcarry.

Look guys. I can understand dying once to their trilane. I can even understand getting caught out the second or third time. Sometimes you just have a horrible time in lane, right? And mistakes happen.

But when you're up to your sixth death in as many minutes then DON'T GO BACK FOR MORE. -_-


I farmed ok, not great but ok. Bottom fed as hard as they possibly could. We lost map control, lost all of the lanes and got destroyed. :-\

That ult is also preaty easy to dodge chances are if u are stuntlocked enough long for the ult to hit you are probably dead

I treat PL like I treat AM where despite pleas and report threats from angry teammates, I do not want to fight until I have at least 2 core items.

Especially on AM, like what are they expecting me to do when they're already constantly losing team fights and throwing their bodies at them? Mana Void?

Usually they claim you had free farm and blame you for not having bfury manta with 20 minutes of so called free farm.

trust me, nothing pisses me more off the most than having a last pick AM when we already had a safelane spectre BEGGING for a support

I know that feeling...its why my AM winrate is awful. A while back I had one guy demanding I fight at about 18 minutes after being harassed to hell and back in lane. I literally just got my battlefury up and then he starts pinging on my "come fight" "I can't yet, I only just got battlefury" "omg when fight?" "when I have some items" "fine, I'll afk fountain until you have items and want to come fight".

Cue 10 minutes straight of sarcastic comments and whining. "When you'll grace us with your presence in a teamfight" and crap like that. Even when I did jump in from time to time.

Some people...ugh. :-\

I would have games where people would flame me for farming 10 minutes into the game as PL or AM when my team would lose all of their heroes in exchange for nothing. Like the fights wouldn't even be close and they truly believe that a PL farming for his core will change the outcome of everything. "We're going to lose a tier 1 but still have to defend even though the fight at that point in time is unwinnable!"

Also I would witness games where when a side lane goes poorly, they would beg an OD to forfeit his lane for a really dumb attempt of a gank.

In the case of ET I think it's because the tooltip for NO isn't exactly the clearest thing ever in terms of what it actually does. The effect on the other heroes can be hard to understand when you're talking about a percentage of resistance reduction. So people didn't get it early because it's confusing. And then Bulba starts going 0-4-4-1 and the little ping goes off that this is actually what that skill does and why it's good. It's a bit like how every Tinker used to go Laser/Rocket.

You know that guy who picks Stealth Assassin, goes like 4-10 with minimal impact, gets completely carried because the other team has an intentional feeder or something, and then talks shit when the T4 towers go down? That guy should be punched in the dick until he falls over.

So 2 guys pick supports and "roam" the whole game until we can't leave basebecause of no wards and they don't TP anyway when you're dived. Sure they had nice KDA, but they did not help to def a single tower outsides of T3 but it was too late. Add a BH you dies multiple times alone, because you know invisibility = invincibility, specially when their naga has grabbed a gem.

I've begun treating my pub teammates the same way- the moment you realize he's simply an illiterate idiot frothing at the mouth, I just mute, even if we lose the game without communication. I figured it's a game where I want to have fun and do logical things, not to hear these brats whining at me. This problem is especially pronounced when I play Naga Siren. The noobs demanding different usages of song just to save their arses...even when i just used it for initiations.
