People who use pinging as their primary form of communication.

Just played a game with bristle who would ping like crazy for the first 20 minutes of the game. Then upon one haphazard gank made by our teammate storm spirit, he starts typing his displeasure. After hearing storm spirit stand up for himself, he TURNS ON HIS MIC, and proceeds to give him the tongue lashing of a lifetime.

His typing was flawless, his english immaculate, and yet he decided that yes, random pings are the superior method of communication.

Even worse.

NA server. English channels.

Everyone speaks Portuguese.

FUUUUUUUCKKKKK. Even Spanish I can understand. But fucking seriously. And they keep talking to you and pinging all the damn time. I'm like son... "no portuges."

That and Chinese. People yelling at me in Chinese and constantly pinging the map in the place where I am getting ganked is the most annoying thing.

Like, I don't know if they can't tell I don't speak Chinese...???

This game needs a more easily available GG button. It's just super frustrating to get locked into pointless games some times.

Also, Everyone tends to be pretty decent except the fucking spanish speakers. Russians are all pretty good, quiet and helpful but the spanish ones flame in some broken chickenshit spanglish, ping everywhere and aren't even especially good on the whole.

This is not making the world a better place.

here's a little tip for people in lpq: play coop vs bot.
everyone just 5 man psuhes mid and games end in ~10-15 min.
it's like 1-2 hours and you're out.

there is no easy fix for being muted though, i just got unmuted from 163 hours then i made the horrible mistake to tell people what they're doing wrong because i want to actually win the game and now im fucking muted again.
why do shitty players have to get so butthurt when you point out their mistakes? it's like they don't even want to become decent.

guess i should just stick to ranked next time i get unmuted so this won't happen again.
unranked is a fucking hellhole.
there is just no way im not telling someone who unknowingly game ruins that he is. i try hard to win games and take advice from superior players and so should everyone else. you're not alone in your team, there are 4 other people you ruin the game for if you have no clue what you're doing and refuse to learn how to play/play properly because hurr durr i dont care.
maybe you dont care but your team fucking does. go play bot games if you dont care.

Honestly it sounds like you SHOULD be muted.

Offlane should buy wards and support stuff so safe lane support Veno can buy shadowblade and Aghs. He and his party buddy gyro fight for farm. Other dude calls mid, picks pudge but only attempts to gank something after 17 mins misses every hook that wasn't set up first by a disable.

dp building bloodstone dagon in a losing game against morph/bloodseeker/tinker says "i did fine"

And this game

I called all 3 times Dire got the pickoff because some guy wanted to farm creeps at the edge of fog. Lost a rax for each time. Why? Because it was "so boring", which was the only thing spoken in English the whole game of course. It's pretty frustrating not to be at full strength as a team every single rax fight. Doubly so when you ask for it with plenty of time to spare and they just straight up ignore you.

It's crazy, I have this benchmark MMR I want to get to. So many times I've been literally 4 points from it, but after that valve ensures my team is full of 1-9 mid DKs who starts calling everyone gooks and 0-6 disruptors who start feeding courier. It's like the system simply refuses me to pass the benchmark for even 1 game.

don't you love it when people say "COMMEND ME PLZ" after saying "EZ MID"?

I'm honestly getting tired of losing games because a bunch of stacked players with MMRs lower than mine are getting matched in my same match. The team who has more stacked player is almost always the one who loses. Fucking great MM system Valve. I guess I shouldn't expect anything better considering how much shit they put in the game in the last months.
Can't wait for DkS2 to be released.

you know a game is going to be good when the first thing you have to do is mute two people because they really enjoy sharing their shit music with everyone.

man last few days of dota..
started with me playing a terrible game and feeding really badly. Few games after I get mass feeding teammates, which I'm like k i deserve it cause of my shit game. but then almost all next 10 games were plagued by shitty play and a concentration of non-English speakers that I have not seen in a while.
yeaaa just started a game. 4 heroes pick, asking last 1 to pick carry with a stun for our tri. Nope, randoms, beastmaster. here we go again
yep that went terrible.

next game 3 ppl didn't pick till after the timer when they had 5 picks already. I don't think any spoke English. Oh and riki pick with nyx and mirana ofc.
WTF.. 7-28 atm in game, makes sense w that team. I had my lose-streaks but this is some shit. down about 250 mmr, but that's not what upsets me, it's the games being horrible

im currently around 5.2k mmr, i get the shortest q ever (like 10 seconds short) so im super optimistic cuz that normally means close game mmr or so i thought, after the game i notice teammates were a 3 stack of 3.9's and opponents had lowest as 4.7. all throughout the game the stack was qqing about how game is lost etc etc because im retarded or something. theyre collectively 4/20 and im at around 12/3/7. they kept walking into obvious ganks that i told them are about to happen etc. i didnt even say anything negative to them. i dont understand why they were even in my game let alone flaming me.

meh. long time ago i had a great record on voker. now i havent played much since then and esp not much invoker but nowadays i lose like 90% of the matches.
evry single game i end up with total tards that feeed hardcore .i just hit lvl 7, enemy duallane is lvl 8 with 6 kills under their belt. and then start flaming me for not ganking or using only 3 spells in a short early teamfight (they know invoke has a quite long cd on low lvls... i hope atleast) .

oh also they run like chicken when you tornado 3 of them and emp 4. when almost the whole enemy team has 0 mana its fucking GO time. not "omg that treads mom void that doesnt even have mana for his mask is so scary me run!" time...
