Dark Seer goes 0-9, then when questioned on his questionable play, buys tons of couriers while the other team refuses to end for 20 mins after. Of course. | ||

Queue ranked game, team insta locks Mirana Invoker and Luna. Oh well, pick support. 5th player picks support. Holy shit team communicates well, our cores play well, and we win a good game despite giving up first blood. And there was only maybe 2 serious flames, but otherwise people were trying their best to win! | ||

We're talking about pubgames where it really worth it to have those extra HP, she uses the extra mana very well, agility is her primary attribute and the movespeed is also great. Helm worth it if the ennemy ignores you (or you have really good supports ie progame) but it does not offer good early fighting compare to drum, I consider HotD as a semi midas, it does not immediately improve your fighting ability but you will have some big ancients stack later. | ||

Against magic damage teams, even teams with a disable and nukes, bkb makes you a lot more effective in team fights then aghs or helm ever would. I consider helm more of a farming item, you can stack ancients, jungle, allows some durability coz of the armor + lifesteal gains. And manaboot....um only if you were playing a support luna or an initiator luna (with blink dagger) lol Depends on your team composition, enemy team composition, state of the game. You can't always go BKB rush, sometimes its better to go aquila/drums. If the enemy team is all-in, you probably won't ever be able to get your BKB, and if your team has a lot of CC and strong lanes you may as well get online early and do some damage. | ||

And there was only maybe 2 serious flames, but otherwise people were trying their best to win! Same here, the first few ranked games were terrible and I was almost going to vent about it here but after I shifted through about 5 games of crap the quality of games increased dramatically. I think I had to work my ass off in those initial games to get there but it was worth it.Its like a completely different world, no one shotgun mid sniper, 3/4 supports who know how to play, and everyone was capable of making decent plays. Like my last game I saw some holy shit big plays (for a pub at least) and it was freaking solo queue. The picks are still a bit shaky, but they are better than the "pick without regard to who is picked on other team" nonsense. At least for once I feel like I don't need a high-impact snowball hero to win a game. My last game for the first time I actually felt a bit out of my league, rather than before 3/4 of my games were me carrying from jungle because people couldn't lane farm even if their life depended on it. I actually felt like I was letting the team down in the laning phase OD vs Razor, it wasn't a huge feed or anything but I made a few mistakes like dying, buyback for teamfight and dying again. No one flamed me for being 1-4 early in the game (granted I did do some clutch imprison to save people from arrow and was always the first to notice invisibility ) but we had some sick supports who bought smoke and helped me nab some kills to get back a positive KDA and my much needed forcestaff and we scored quite a comeback victory. Anyway I played bad and was lucky to win that one.At least in the last couple games of ranked it doesn't feel like as soon as we get a couple of deaths people just give up. People know that with the right movement and map-awareness you can easily get some kills back, reverse team wipe or catch up in farm. | ||

We do that, get first blood in easy lane. Leave carry alone, go smoke gank mid. Smoke gets dispelled by enemy jungler so we kill him instead, and proceed to get yet another kill top lane. 3-0. "This should be a nice game". NOPE. 3-1. At that time our Naix dies, complains he's got no support. Obviously, we didn't expect him to farm a lot while we were gone, just... you know. Not die. It's fine, we go base to reg, get more smoke and go help our carry. He dies again before we even get there, but we get 2 more kills nonetheless. Fast forward, our carry keeps dying for no better reason than him being completely oblivious to our enemies' existance. We tell him to be careful because Pudge is going his way. We tp to help but he manages to die every time before we arrive. By this time Pudge is doing what Pudge does, the enemy LC (who, together with Mirana, i'm getting tired of seeing in every single god damn game) won 5+ duels against our Naix, Warlock's got Agh's and is starting to build a refresher, and Viper's doing decent even though we killed him a few times in the beginning. Fucking sigh. We obviously lost. We figure that we should get heroes that can both contribute in the early-midgame and do good with decent farm later on. Offlaner from last game picks offlane Clock again, other guy gets Mag, goes mid. One of the randoms gets a random Luna so he's gonna be the carry. I get a Furion, and, because it's greedy i get the courier so that the lane support we were expecting from the last guy wouldn't be so poor (wards were bought by our offlaner already anyway, so he didn't even have to buy support items). And guess what. Lastpick Dark-fucking-Seer and he joins me in the jungle. Sometimes i just wanna flip my shit when i see this happen. I also wish Valve would make ranked matchmaking heavily moderated (?). Ban people from it for a week or two when they get reported/abandon or whatever. I don't care what they do, i just want one game mode outside of CM/CD without completely clueless people =/ | ||
