They just splitpushed all game long, whenever we killed 3-4, one of them was pushing a lane and we lost a tower, a rax etc. And if we do not chase brood around he just sitts in the woods/cliffs in our base pushing with spiders for 45min. And if we aren't ahead in farm, he is so hard to kill even with 1-2 stuns and track, shit track does nothing. Biggest bullshit game i have ever played. In the end they just dived the last rax repeatedly and got them eventually. Don't think we lost a teamfight/large fight after the 15minute mark. You bring sentries to lane and hit her. Her spiderling nuke is super mana-inefficient at early levels, so she doesn't really offer much splitpush early on. And since she is melee, if you can see her she isn't going to be able to get last hits easily. Give her a bad start by bringing sentries to lane and she doesn't really have a good catch up mechanic | ||

fuck this game. before this ranked mmr patch I have 54.5% win rate.I feel like I go into a game and am likely to win. After the patch I get nothing but retarded team after retarded team. I refuse to believe it's me suddenly causing all these losses.. I'm getting people who fundamentally don't know how to play the heroes they pick. I get a razor who doesn't level link. I get a luna who ults in loads of a creeps, then an earthshaker who blinks in after creeps are dead and uses ult on 3 people. Tonight I say to myself, if I still get retards then I'm done with this game. First game I get a someone who plays captains draft then says he doesn't know how to play any of the heroes that are picked. Second game is even better, I get a russian 4-stack who ask me to pick gyro solo offlane. After I say no they all feed from the start. I just left and uninstalled dota. Last night I actually had someone in a pub game recognize me purely from being the guy that has to put up with a terrible team, I must have played vs him a few times. He even invited me to his party out of pity. That was nice but it just sums the whole thing up for the past 25 games. Ever since the patch it's been truly awful beyond belief, I keep telling myself it can't go on like this forever, but it does. Getting a bad team is annoying but I simply cannot even believe what's been happening to me all week. This game and it's matchmaking can go fuck itself. I really like the the game but i refuse to play when this happens | ||

All they did was auto attack the wave, push it into our tower, then just dive us, warlock got a fast soul ring and that was it, pretty sure I died like 3 times in lane. I guess I don't understand how to counter scrubby shit that shouldn't work in lane. Hmmmmm shackle into nuke from troll and bashes from melee form To be honest there is no reason u should loose a troll + wr lane to a warlock and mirana, as wlock is preaty useless pre6. Having a mic and saying im going in helps alot, dual lanes are all about synergy and controlling creep equilibrium to attack ennemy heros when they try to go on you. | ||

Yesterday, our captain picked abbadon, bristleback, dragon knight and then we get a random troll warlord and anti-mage. In the 23 minutes before our throne fell, we managed to get zero kills. and fed them at least 25-30. | ||

 2 guys on our team were a duo stack, and they went sky/lion offlane, but they were getting destroyed and giving up a ton kills. Since I got a few kills mid, I decided to help them out. I ganked bot 3 times, got a double kill each time (hence the 10-0 at 11 minutes). Although every time I went back to fountain to regen or get items, my team would just keep fucking dying. I think the sky alone was 0-9 at 15 minutes. I have played a ton of bad games in my life, hell I play bad 1-2 games everyday, but 9 deaths that early? really? After going 0-5 I would just afk jungle and do everything in my power to not die. He also kept saying "lag", and I was checking console and he had the lowest ping. Being out of position isn't a lag issue. | ||

If you don't have console you can activate it by going to your games library in steam, right click Dota 2 and go to properties, then go to launch options and type "-console". You can set your console activation key in the dota 2 settings in game. | ||

It turns out that they were a 4 stack. When playing as a 4 stack, I dont understand why captain doesn't say "what hero are you good with?" or "which support do you like", or at the very least "hey, are you ok with playing WD?" We won the game handily, so I guess I cant be that upset, but I would have been really mad if the game hadn't gone so well, because there were a lot of instances where they clearly were talking to each other, and then got mad when I didn't read their mind. Also, it may be a coincidence, but I don't know why 4 stacks tend to assume that the one other guy really REALLY wants to play WD. I think I have played WD every time I was with a 4 stack and he was in the pool. | ||
