ok ok ok ok. No more solo ranked queuing after 2:00 AM. Constant pubstar foreign trash. Insta lock Veno, go mid, build carry. Random PL (ok, fine), then another person talks about picking Sniper. I try to say no. Reasoning is that we already have a good late game carry. "more carry. more better" Picks Sniper...his buddy will support him in lane with....INVOKER. Our lanes are doing great...except Invoker Sniper top (we're Radiant) who feed 8 kills by minute 10. The enemy team just proceeds to body us. The enemy was doing the same pubstar bullshit, so I'm not complaining about unlucky teammates...the enemy just so happened to have the better picks for pubs and for early game fighting.
That last game was my final motivation to fix my sleep schedule. Because otherwise, these ranked games are fucking retarded. If anyone is curious, I'm 3.8k ranked, so I'm not good, but it's at the level where I can expect a half decent game.

4k here, half-decent games are uncommon. Btw, maybe you should re-own the Chen thread

sounds like you're making the mistake of playing allpick

Can someone seriously tell me why I get matched with people that pick Prophet, yet fail to complete their midas 25 minutes into the game? Someone, please explain. This fucking ranked matchmaking shit isn't working, because I haven't gotten a single normal teammate in 30 games. There's not a fucking chance in hell I am as bad as these guys. We just had fucking four farm dependent heroes. I might actually go out and murder someone.

Ranked MM at 4500 and we have an ursa call mid against storm spirit, die 3 times in the first 5 minutes. He is, of course, muted and does nothing but spam "well played" whenever anyone else dies to the hugely farmed storm spirit he created. Me + a CM are playing our little hearts out, CM gets cour, passive, flying cour, wards, sentries, stacks and pulls, the whole lot while I get all my items quickly but there's just not much you can do when your mid has 17 losses by the mid game. How does that even happen, especially at 4500.

Bad games happen for everybody at all ratings.
Even Dendi becomes feedlord here and there, it's rare but happens.

Yesterday, I figured I was gonna queue some CM and CD. I chose the captain and the other guys just picked lategame. What did I do? I picked up ourselves some Lycan, Kotl, Witch Doctor and I can't remember the last two. Either way, we had a good pushing lineup. Prior to game starting, the guys in my team was like "Our lategame lives and dies with you, Lycan". Not a single one of them understood the simple fact that we were going to push them to hell and win before lategame. Needless to say, my Lycan did work and after like 25 minutes, we had won. As their throne was dying, one teammate (the KOTL, I think) said "I really don't understand how we won this."
People really are retards.

Probably part of a stack. Stacks with huge skill ranges is a big problem to this game I have no idea how to solve

ugh, I think it's a little bit silly I still lose rating when a guy that I don't even know feeds the first 10 minutes and then leaves... The laning phase is over and you're so far behind already, you didn't even get the chance to do anything. I mean, what the fuck.

I just played with a Luna that afk'd for 4 minute stretches the entire fucking game. Why do I have to get these fucking retards IN MY TEAM? He had LESS LASTHITS than I had, and I played a five position EARTHSHAKER.

I can't fucking heal/repel everyone dear lawd. I also hate how Repel has a pretty long cast animation that is almost as long as the AoE stun of Wraith King. It's like when he puts his sword down and I know he's about to cast it, I have to repel our DPS Hero who starts to run the opposite direction. After which, everyone just expects me to heal them. Heal + Arcane II + GA + Refresher just won't cut it. Also, I don't get why ranged heroes stay in the circle when they know what's coming. Like wtf man, you're like an unnecessary extra person that I have to heal cuz you didn't move out.

2 more games and I'm done with the solo calibration games. AND will stop queueing for solo ranked ones. Can't stand against a self-randomed / self-picked carries who literally doesn't understand how to farm or knowing when there's a chance to make a kill. Why do I have to be queued with these shits.

Having a 30% winrate with absolute favorite hero in the game is so fucking depressing.

"Hey, I'm a big fan of (include professional team name) that uses 5-man strat, I should play like them. Or, WE SHOULD play like them."
Nah, it's pretty much the "strategy" people default to when the lanes ain't going well, even those who have never seen a professional team in their lives.
"go push as 5" into mass ping tower into team wipe (usually after walking into a Chrono or Black Hole)

ember spirit buys boots and 2 battlefurys while we get pushed. i ask him why he would do that. his answer: to make big splash what a player

Where's the logic behind letting solo queuers face stacks? Wow, I play solo, I get to face a stack that decides to splitpush the entire game and I can't come up with a strat because I AM FUCKING PLAYING SOLO QUEUE.
