Going to be honest with you, you say you were in the very high skill bracket before. You therefore should beable to crush your way back up to there. Yeah there will be a few games where you literally can pull off Dendi plays and it won't be enough, but you shouldn't be struggling that much.

Yeah I know that's how it's supposed to be like in theory, and last game I did, I just went like 22/4/15 or something on invoker, but the problem is that if a game goes past 40 mins, and most of them do because bad players are somehow too stupid to have even the most basic understanding of when to push/when not to push, and at that stage of the game I can't really have that big of an impact on the game anymore if I'm playing qop or something like that, so the games are decided by which team has more stupid players that wander off on their own to some stupid place (typically trying to farm by their t2 tower or something retarded) and get picked off for no fucking reason what so ever, which eventually, once it happens enough times, results in the other team winning because 5 players beat 3 or 4.

Like, if I do play enough games I will probably get back up but it's going to take A LOT of games if the games keep going as they are.

Queue because I felt like playing and wow, RD for the first time ever in SEA + first pick, so I take Rubick

team: drow tiny alch jugger

swede tiny, who was thankfully decent and kazakh enemy PL, who kept whining about the feeding Viper

I have no idea what the hell my team wants to do, nobody wants to say anything, everyone else but Tiny is content to play 1v0.

I don't know if this is common in other regions, but SEA MMing is just... meh.

Sven misses stuns all game, builds bracer bracer MoM sange daedalus. Absolutely zero survivability items and of course, he keeps turning on MoM the first second he gets into a fight, so he ends up dying in 2 seconds before he can even do anything. Needless to say, we lose the game.

Maybe he casted the stuns at creeps and the hero managed to walk away in time?

Thats something I've noticed, sea mm games tend to be a lot more passive than the euro ones. Euro is a lot faster and more aggressive, more ganking tower pushing etc.

missclicking and hitting a creep instead of a hero is something even pros do from time to time. but multiple times in one game...

I once tried to initiate on the enemy team when we were having a staring contest in mid lane. I was VS, I try to stun the enemy dazzle who is out of position, hit a creep. We end up winning a 3-1 trade and taking top tower anyway. But watching the replay in slow mo made me lol.

Another game:
I play as lion, laning with a brood on the hard lane. I think "ok I'll babysit her for a level and then go roaming"

Brood buys basilius, no regen, skills incapacitating bite, gives first blood at minute 1, quits the game. Nice.

Can't carry games when the other 2 lanes feed all the time. -_- QoP is an ass, demands mid, rages at BS for wanting mid too, then feeds Storm Spirit there. The BS lanes with Veno bot and feeds CK and WD, while Omni and me as Juggernaut have to lane vs AA and Morph. No Veno/Jugg lane, because that would be retarded right? Clearly 2 melees is superior.

Reverse QQ: played a game where I went hard lane and found myself facing a TA + Viper lane... TA proceeds to never last hit but rather just meld near us, soak up XP, and occasionally try to "gank" us with Meld crits. Viper tries to harass but sucks. At one point, TA melded within our tower range and didn't run away when we started hitting her (confused?).

Our team won the game something like 50 kills to 4 in 20 minutes.

Matchmaking...

OK just finished playing a game with the most retarded people ever. I pick WR and support a OD in the top lane ( we were dire ) game was going good until our Kunkka started talking shit saying that i can't land a powershot ( he wanted me to powershot and invisible bounty hunter LOL ). Too bad that this retard always missed his fuckin ultimate. HOW THE FUCK can you miss kunka ultimate ? Jesus Christ. And obviously, he started talking shit in all chat. LMAO

edit: Not to mention that 30 mins in the game this Kunkka had only phase boots and a ogre axe, even with a babysitter in his lane he couldnt farm any shit.

edit 2: The server was on EU. That's why I mostly play on NA. Usually people aren't that retarded there.
