yes puppey randoms in pubs and if he gets storm the chance that he crushes mid and wins the game on his own is pretty high. If i play almost every game random i should be equally matched to players that pick every single time or else the matchmaking is bad.

That would imply that "doing your best to win the game" means picking out of a pool of your 5 best heroes every game.

I'd rather have uneven games instead.

ad hominem so quickly? do you really not have any arguments? The comparison you made is bad, you compared some people simply enjoying the game to people making a living off of dota in a different game mode. I gave you an example that was supposed to show you that better mechanics are usually enough to win your lane in a pub dota game regardless of the hero.

It's funny how in LoL if you were to random a hero every game and call mid you would be banned.

In hon you would forfeit at 15 because they probably got crushed.

In dota it happens in 99% of my games where I don't call mid. If this was my first moba I'd definitely just quit, but luckily I can see the comedy in it. No real surprise that LoL has a bajillion more players than dota.

Also for some reason in dota games that are like 65 kills to 10 take 45minutes to end.


so, if someone picks storm spirit first and demands mid that is fine right?
but if someone randoms storm spirit first and demands mid that is bad?
doesn't make any sense, in dota every hero is viable and there are a lot of players that can play a lot of heros well. The reason lol has a lot more players is because it is easier, it was released earlier and it is popular in asia.


No you're right, I wonder why they don't just random their heroes in competitive play? every hero is viable so there would be no % lower chance of them losing! Oh Puppey randomed storm? that's fine I'm sure he can play him well so he should go mid.

Even in ranked, the players are supposed to be relatively equally matched. If one person has played 200 games of storm and the guy they're facing is playing their 2nd game of random whatever, who are you going to bet on having the better game? The guy who randomed is obviously not doing their best to win the game.

One of the reasons LoL is more popular is because Riot at least got their community to care about trying to win in ranked.


if you want "LoL" experience so badly play CM only, or CM CD. Can't random there, problem solved....

And there are still people that tell you there is nothing wrong with matchmaking when you're matched with fags who go midas radiance as jungle Doom when we have AM

Should be easy right? They don't have any supports (their Silencer didn't get wards until 20 minutes in or so) and we just had to score several kills here and there, Nevermore was ganking, we push decently, win several teamfights. At the end, they had too many carries and we lost.

Oh, their jugg got Aghanims first.

I get easy solo lane vs razor, even bait him into an early kill
Storm does his Storm thing mid vs Rhasta
Our defensive tri (CM Dazzle Spectre) is getting rocked.

Were we normal scrubs I would end the complaint there about how volvo gives me noob teammates to force my 50%. But we're past that so storm and I make a point to win back our trilane. We TP down, agree to sneak around through jungle and come out behind them as they overextended. Meanwhile the trilane can clean up with all 5 of us.

We charge in, the spells fly, and we both die.

Spectre: Why would you run in like that...

You're 0-5, 0-4, and 0-5 respectively. We talked this out a minute ago. Sat under tower and watched us go in, not even a casual dagger. That was where you redeem yourself! Where we take back the game and stop their push!

Then the EXACT same thing happens a minute later, they overextend, storm and I loop around, ready to take down their luna while the Tri backs us up, a grave and some ice...

No response again.

Spectre: Why do you guys keep taking fights...

Bloody hell, if you don't want to fight then

A) Say something beforehand while we discuss this plan at length at how we're all going to, you know, fight
B) Don't bother maxing Desolate so you can *not* hit heroes.

Less than 5 minutes later we get throned by their aura stacking + serpent wards.

You could at least try.
We CAN have nice things

First game: Russian tinker 0-7 midlane in less than 10 minutes ( He had wards to see the ganks but nvm them ).

Second game: I pick phoenix and go offlane. Some dude picks zeus. He says that he wants to offlane or he will ruin the game. Im like w/e, he must be joking, but he is not. He starst feeding couriers and him self.

Good day of dota

played a game as mid, ofc no courier or wards
have 2000 gold piled up, might as well get a midas
team is feeding top and bot
enemy team has wards and his allies even guard runes for mid
russian tidehunter is typing gg fast finish and russian stuff in all chat, goes afk in the middle of the lane and gets killed because of that 3 times
enemy team gets ahead a lot and the only safe place to farm is the jungle, we kinda share the jungle 3-way
i didn't really mind any of this
but what really annoyed me was the person i played with whining in ts all the fucking time about pretty much anything that happend. Gotta remove him "by accident" soon.

we did win because enemy team had no lategame and they couldn't gg push but it was the most annoying dota game i have played in a long time.

SEA is still hit and miss. I get 50ms-60ms ping with 0% packet loss and USWest provides better gameplay at 200-300ms.
