Random Draft, picked last for Dire, first time not picking within the first three picks. Enemies pick Death Prophet, Timbersaw, Lich, DK, and Bristleback. Our team went with Life Stealer, Bounty Hunter, Venge, Phantom Lancer, and I pick Centaur. Team mates go "Hey wtf, we said pick mid, were you not looking at the picks?" Well I admit that I missed it when someone said that I should go for a mid hero. Not really a fan of playing mid and carrying the game in one way or the other so I pick Centaur over Tinker. We eventually sort out the lane assignments, BH went mid against DP, LS was in Jungle, Venge and PL were safe lane against Lich and Timber. I had to solo hard lane against DK and Bristle which was easy once I managed to get a stick, I just played safe, stayed within exp range, and got safe last hits. We got off to a great start, 5-0, but we got out pushed. There was this one instance where BH and me were defending our tier 1 mid lane against DP, Timber, and Bristle. He goes windwalk track someone and then of course he gets bursted down. I was on my way back to the base. He then said "reported cent". What the fuck did he expect me to do? Warcry into 3 angry heroes, Stomp, try to land a double edge, before I get my ass bursted down? No fucking way. We would have given up a tower and two hero kills.

whatever kill luna and lion that lane against us and take the tower anyways
my team feeds in the meantime, doom + maiden lane just feeds, being way out of position all the time.
mid storm doing alright.
We have 6 towers while the enemy has no low ground tower left.
We are crushing every teamfight
storm randomly goes afk and abandons
my team decides to leave, despite us winning hard even without him.

Woah what is this? 6.24? ) Well there are some guides that are not updated yet so maybe that's the reason he went that way. If I'm not mistaken, Purge's in game guide to veno wasn't updated yet and it goes with that skill build.

Limited heroes, I get confused which team I was in, ended up giving Tidehunter, sand king, and witch doctor to the enemy team. Our sniper got wards which was a complete wtf moment. He got midas at 10 minutes so we're thinking it's all good, maybe he'll be useful in the next 25 minutes. Nope. Our Viper (and the three supports, myself included) tried to hold the game. We just couldn't win at team fights. If we burst down TH, SK gets Epicenter up while WD gets death wards up. Our best bet was to back off, let them waste their ults, and fight again. Never quite happened. Their sven got farmed. We managed to kill him several times but it was never enough.

In the end, our sniper got Maestrom, Deso, and Dominator. In that order.

So the game starts in pretty good way, someone randoms Kunka, other dude randoms BM, and another randoms THD. I picked up CM and another guy picks Morph. We are pretty much set with somewhat decent lineup right?
THD starts crying 3 carries is way too much and we are all bad and - repicks into prophet, goes 0-11 blames team for picking carries whole 30 minutes of the fuckfest it was. I never managed to meet such level of idiocy.

solo queued in random draft and got matched up with a group of 4 others. Went 9/4/16 on clock and still got yelled at and berated over voice comms by them the majority of the game for any death, missed hook, or even slightly misplaced cogs. Didn't matter that it was 42 kills to 20 and we were leading by 25k+ exp and 13k+ gold, they still complained. I finally had enough and muted them and just went to jungle till the other team came back and won. Not the most mature way to handle it, but contributing to their success just to get bullied for it after seemed like a greater injustice. Not a fun experience.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

The worst kind of game is without a doubt when you go 20-0 on your qop, get orchid+guinsoo before 30 min, even buy all the wards for your team and they still manage to get crushed. My teammates just now were so underfarmed, I seriously wonder if they know you get gold for killing creeps.
If you seek well, you shall find.

3-2-0-1 into 3-2-4-2 is the best veno skill build if you're in a tough contested lane and you have regular wards next to you.

Each individual point in gale and sting gives so much extra lane presence, which is what you need in a 2v2 lane.
An early point in plague ward is only good if you need it for map vision and can afford to leave the lane every so often (f.e you've beat down an offlaner and need to pull or help control a rune)
Maxing plague ward at 7 is only good if you need to push hard, or hold off a hard pushing enemy comp.
By level 10 you can be sure that teams will at least be making moves on tier 1s, so maxed ward is great to have.

I think this is the third time in this topic But I really, really fucking hate Nature's Prophet. The most broken hero in the game. If you don't have certain heroes to counter him, there's absolutely no way to stop him. You will eventually lose to his OP split push. Teleport needs +10sec more cd.

not true, especially not in a pugna veno lane, if he gets wards early the t1 is taking a lot of damage early, we got first blood in our lane too and we had ridicilous fast mana boots + basilius ring. There is no way in hell they could have defended (without help) if we push with veno wards lvl 3 and pugna blast lvl 3. Not getting wards just delayed the push.

Wards allow you to jungle, 3 points in wards and 1 in sting is enough to farm ancients at a reasonably fast pace, since we were double offlane he should have done that and not sit in lane and take my exp - at least he didn't try to take my last hits.

I don't mind him getting gale and i don't mind him getting sting first, but 2 points in wards by lvl 5 would have been way better than ignoring wards.

I went 5 and 0 in a lane against witch doctor lifestealer.
Luna and CM go 0-4 and 0-7 in a lane against shadow shaman and night stalker.

'support' kunkka
i tell him that his retarded pick was not a very good idea and he next leveled himself.

LOL WHY YOU NO GANK?
I BET YOU LOST YOUR LANE MID TO ABADON

meanwhile, abaddons tower is down @ 8 and i got a solo kill on him

cant win em all i guess.

death prophet = not a ganking mid guys, especially when the side lane support doesnt have a stun or any useful skill to speak of

Are you a man? 10 seconds? Seriously? Only an idiot would suggest something like this.

To even make this kind of change and still be balanced would be impossible. Here's something a sensible person would do:

Teleport +20sec more cd
Teleport goes on cd after using, and interrupting it means furion waits for cooldown
Base damage -12
Base armor is now 0
Treants have -100 health and give +32 more exp and +20 more gold
Ulti can no longer be cast to any point on the map

There. This is what ANYONE who cares about making split push balanced would do.
