The rest of the team, though. Cent who randomly ults when there is no fighting anywhere. TB who just absolutely ignores the map and dies over and over. Doom was ok. At least he rushed mek before shadowblade or something AND ganked from jungle. So he wasn't stupid.
So I'm the lone support with 3 braindead carries and and the worst cent I've ever seen. You know what, fuck it, I'm the 7-0-4 Lina. I rage and rage at them for everything. Normally I wouldn't but this team was just too fucking special. Sf is top trying to push t2, I ward the lone cliff (we were radiant) and THE ENTIRE ENEMY TEAM CLEARLY WALKS BY THAT WARD. Does he b? Naw man gotta get dem souls brah. Cent sees voker near bottom rune. It's the most obvious bait in the fucking universe, and he dies and has the nerve to blame the team.
You're fucking feeding dude, stop it. But but but the 1-5 sf! I DON'T FUCKING CARE YOU SHITHEAD STOP FUCKING FEEDING YOU FUCK
Honestly I'm just gonna do this every time I get a 4 carry team because its the only way they'll learn.
you are wrong. they will never learn no matter what
I dunno why I even bother supporting in 90% of my games. Drow with showblade, perseverance, morbid mask, ring of health finally into bkb, actually said its better to half finish a bunch of items than to actually finish one full item, gyro with PMS shadowblade into aghs (?!) when we vsing shit like a storm spirit, starts wondering why all the supports have less levels than the carries (we let you take the farm you fucking idiot thats why), the farm which they so carelessly wasted on dumb items. These guys have like 1000 games come on...

I don't know if it's OP, but I thought one of the reasons they nerfed q/w invoker the first time was because EMP is not really 'fun' to play against nor watch.
AR, got Tinker, asked for mid, lost to Lion by giving him 2 early kills. Got late BoT and late Blink Dagger. For some reason I still couldn't get my rhythm in tp in, blink into trees, march, soul ring, rearm, bottle, blink into trees, rinse and repeat. I couldn't seem to find the next safe space to blink to. I need more practice.

I don't think Tinker is an easy hero to play efficiently, you need a couple of Tinker games under your belt to get the feel of that hero. I have an issue with Tinker where I can always manage to get BoTs at a reasonable time but start sucking because in not making good use of the jungle and being in lanes often.
Ugh..I just hate how random matchmaking can feel sometimes. I solo-Q pretty much exclusively. Pretty much just all-pick. So as many of you will sympathize with me, it can feel pretty volatile at times.
Like, I know Valve "adjusts" MMR based on parties and stuff but it doesn't know if a random 2-stack is actually two friends with voice communication that go for a tryhard pub laning combo like bane/mirana and proceed to rape some random pubs. Other times it's just 2 random people queuing together for battle bonus sharing or some shit and don't even go to the same lane.
Also, 4 stacks. So, on average they're supposed to have lower than average MMR because of "teamwork factors" Well...honestly most pub 4 stacks completely lack this. Some games I'm just stuck with 4 peruvians who all random and never talk all game. Bonus points for 2 of them having an awful game and then all 4 turning to flame me.
And when two friends of vastly different MMR stack together. Like, you have a shadow demon that's just doing work on every lane and you have his friend, Luna, that feeds and rushes shadowblade.
Sometimes, your other lanes are doing great. Other time you have a Venomancer that feeds a lane with Spectre six kills and just gives up on the game
Also ran into a Void that was just griefing a pub. He just goes AFK farming the whole game. Buys random items and walks around the jungle killing camps. I know it wasn't a bot because when I would go by the jungle to kill a couple of camps, he would timewalk in and make sure to lasthit every creep. Never joined a single fight up until the moment our throne fell.
Fucking try to do what I can but feels so hopeless sometimes. I know I made mistake some games but other times I felt like I was playing great but still not enough. Like, the void game was hopeless from the start.
Worst matches in my entire time playing this game, first early 0:00 abandonment. Ok lets try 4v5, nope Lina decides to steal last hits, then feeds the courier to enemy then leaves.
Ok, fine, one bad game whatever. Then second game happens. It starts out OKish drow dies a few times mid but nothing we can't come back from. Then alch goes mid; drow says leave or I feed and proceeds to go 0-31 even tping in to die faster. Oh and to top it off, even after drow having fed them and easily being able to finish the entire enemy team decides to camp the fountain for a full f**ing 10 minutes.
Dumbasses who last pick naix and PA, then insist on both going onto the safelane. Against an enemy lane-cutting axe. Then when their laning decisions are questioned, they go "no, because of axe me and naix couldn't do well."
I'd like to know, WHAT KIND OF FUCKING LANE WOULD CAUSE NAIX+PA TO DO WELL?
In the same game, guy who says "i support" then picks beastmaster and does absolutely nothing to support in the way of courier, wards, smoke, mek or pipe for the whole game. And fucks up using roar. Yknow, one of the top 3 single target spells in the game?

Haha I lost a couple of hundred points doing this. I tell myself one more game, I lose and tell myself "fuck that ending on a W" and as a result of exhaustion end up doing miserably and losing.
I flat out need to stop doing this myself. Its really, really bad. Last night it was about 11pm so I thought one quick game, then watch an episode of something, off to sleep by about 1am.
1am comes and goes...and then I'm queuing up my THIRD game of the night. Because I'm not going to be able to sleep with how painful the two losses had been. I'd won my lane in both in dominating fashion twice. Didn't matter, other lanes busy feeding like hell.
Thank the gods I won in the third game or I'd have been up all night.
On a side note: Couple of days ago...Spectre on my team. Phase boots into Vanguard into 40 minute Radiance. "TEAM NOOB, FEEDERS. PLS REPORT VENO AND PHOENIX," yelleth he. *facepalm*
so i play mid against death prophet, safe lane cries for ganks, tell them there is a dp mid if i leave tower is gone. They keep crying for ganks, find a haste, might as well go gank. Gank get a double kill in the meantime mid tower falls and the same person crying for ganks now starts "report mid lost tower after 10 minutes". And i don't even think he was trolling, he was just retarded i guess.
I've never been so angry at someone for farming so much. Luna just afk farmed for the first 25 minutes, which would usually lead to us losing but we actually won 4vs5. But we couldn't push, so I asked Luna to come push with us. She just kept farming until she was 6 slotted - she didn't even sell her midas, she just kept it on the courier so she could keep using it
edit: just had a game where my team was fucking perfect - and not only that, but I also had to play the carry. And they were a 4stack. Why can't all matches be like this?
Part QQ part question. When you are in low priority and you get an abandon it resets your games to 5? This just happened to me and only because my internet randomly went down which is the reason im in low priority in the first place. I dont mind being in low priority because my unstable internet occasionally ruins peoples games, but dont keep me there forever, it's not like low priority games can get much worse anyways.
Oh and it was during my last match of low priority...
