From 5 wins you should get +10 bonus mmr, 10 wins +25 bonus mmr. | ||

Edit: this happens every time I get near a 50% win rate - the matchmaking decides to give me 10 losses in a row ... | ||

Ok, so I guess he hasn't played a whole bunch of mid support alch. Nope. Goes 1x tangoes, gauntlets and some iron branches. He keeps on complaining that his tangos ran out 2 mins in and then claims that the team is losing because we have three carries. It just blows my mind how this is possible. Have they never seen a support alch? And his build was boots -> vlads -> midas. FML. Tbh I've never seen a support alch. The last time I saw an alch was the one on my team who jungled for 25 min and had midas and shadowblade. GG | ||

I get paired up with a competent enemy team who wards, dewards, gets gem. My team - a fucking pudge who can't land a hook or hooks 1v5. A retarded legion commander who doesn't know how to farm with only 114 last hits in the game after 43mins and walks around in circles doing nothing, a retarded shadow shaman who refuses to buy sentries and deward the positions I tell him, a retarded pub jungling enchantress who only ganks if you "ask" - you're a goddamn support with so much early game potential and YOU demand people to ask you to gank? I hate pub enchantresses - useless and can't play that hero nor micro... So pissed off at the sheer stupidity of some of the people I have to deal with sometimes...

GG Don't think I've ever seen a support alch either. I think its a mistake to expect a pub Alchemist to support to be honest. Its one of those heroes which people get into their minds as "this is x type of hero and is always x type of hero and must be built this way". Much like how you hardly ever see a proper support Nyx in a pub (its always mana boots into dagon 5). Or how 95% of pubbers still think Necro is a support because he has a heal. If he suddenly became crucial pick/ban material as a support then you might see it more, however. Like Naga over the TI3 period (although frankly that annoyed me, Naga is one of my better carries and it became almost impossible to pick her to carry with because thanks to that fad everyone assumed support). | ||

After losing bottom's lane rax as well, we won a team fight miraculously after I broke the enemy weaver's linken's sphere into a lift and stole another damage spell to kill him. I got enough money for arcane boots and ghost scepter and we won the game. My match making rating still went up, but I was thrown into LPQ for 5 games, this being the first time I was in LPQ since they changed it such that it counted by the number of games and not hours. I thought hey, LPQ would go by pretty quick until I realised that ... you can't find friends to party up with because they wouldn't get battle points either. Why volvo why???? | ||

TBH, the only reason why I pick him in the first place is because I don't expect even semi-decent team coordination so I generally tend to go for picks that can support early and transition to late game if necessary. I've lost way too many games where I'd draft around a 5 manning line up or a pushing line up and everybody would do their own thing and lose the late game since we couldn't outcarry the other team. I guess expecting a support alch is too much at ~3500. | ||

Then they started flaming me (I messed up a gank, or I should rather say I came smoked top and Venge decides it would be the best time to run into the jungle and force all their heroes to the tower) and Venge proceeds to one time swap me into a deadly powershot after I just escaped and another time swap the Timbersaw away that I just wanted to RP... I don't know if she intentionally wanted to screw me over or was just stupid and didn't understand at all how the hero works. And to top it all off, Venge, Mirana and Treant decide to give up and stay in fountain when we still had 2 T2 towers up and the enemy team had no chance to push highground. | ||

On the upside played an All Random last night that confirmed my theory: you're either on the team that stomps, or the team that gets stomped. No middle ground, no close games- rape or get raped. | ||

It seems to be inhabited by a class of players who build battlefury on literally any melee hero, in wildly inappropriate situations, then proceed to get scores like 1-10-2 while raging over voip so vehemently that you'd think their teammates had keyed their cars. I've so far witnessed the 30-minute bfury into 40-minute blink LC, the 20-minute MoM into 40-minute bfury slark, and the ever-reliable battlefury BH. All complained constantly at their teams while being the worst player in the game, by far. I shall continue to observe these strange creatures for as long as I am bound here. | ||

Get yelled at for not using Mek to save the two dudes that just got facesmashed by AA's ult and could not be healed. Afterwards, Venomancer says "I'm gonna build my own Mek" and then builds his own Mek. I don't understand. | ||
