Why queue ranked when you have terrible internet and can't stay connected for more than 3 mins at a time, and when you are connected you are feeding because of "lag"

of course they are on my team too ;)

I really need to learn to play someone more self-reliant in pubs like Nature's Prophet. So much sitting around with clear advantages. It's a bit exasperating trying to organize peeps together to do stuff.

Sometimes you don't realize how unstable your connection is til you queue for a match. Sucks, but it can happen. I remember it happened to me a few times when I used to live at my parents' house. Luckily I managed to get TWC to fix the internet before I moved out.

Damn, there are some thin skinned ass people on Dota lmao. Dude randoms last pick and expects me to concede mid, then claims "you won't get a last hit when we dual mid," citing that he's smurfing and his last hitting is too good. We dual mid and I get 99% of the last hits while he takes all the harass - which makes him rage. He proceeds to feed himself and couriers for 40 minutes, and yells over the mic - damn near hyperventilating - that he makes $70/hr and doesn't care about this game because he's going to fuck his instagram model girlfriend right when the game's over.

tobi casting majors finals

WHY

Rewarding racism and ignorance, because OH MY GOD HE CAN SHOUT AND GET OVEREXCITED WHILE TELLING US WHAT'S GOING ON ON-SCREEN.

Fuck hypecasters.

Lumi and Draskyl were casting some Pro-Am games on GD Studio earlier, and it was great to listen to them, because neither was a hype caster, but both had sensible things to say about the fucking game.

If i encounter one of those i immediately buy a force staff and make it my personal mission to push and ping him around the map. Screaming raging adhd kids never get old.

You know, the real greatest genre of all time is actually stealth games. RPGS are good and all, but literally nothing compares to the highs of Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, and MGS3.

Unfortunately, those two games are basically it as far as excellent games in the genre go. But two god tier games are all you really need to shut up the stans stanning their RPGs.

Did Thief 2 stop existing while I was asleep?

just carried the dumbest huskar i have ever seen.

before anyone picks he asks everyone to support him saying he would carry us.
he last picks huskar. :)

goes 1vs5, dies, "fk no team gg noobs" x 18 times. :)

we still won


pick necrophos for ez mmr

Going 1 vs 5 as Huskar is always a bad idea, yeah. Especially when initiation with the ult.

Cannot stop playing despite the lag.

If anyone ever gets into LP, toss me an invite. I live for that shit.

I got into LP for the first time due to an emergency which urged me to go away from the keyboard. I shared control for my hero and for units and warned my team as soon as I could get back to the computer. Some idiot decided to feed with my hero or something, and I think this is what got me reported actually. I am never sharing control for my hero again.

LP game was pretty good. What is fun is that the game which got me in LP was Ranked and Normal bracket, while the LP game had to be unranked so it was Very High Skill Bracket and a lot more interesting.

I win the last 5 games and now I'm in low priority (?) where everyone disconnects and it's impossible to finish a game

I think it's time to give up on this game
 
I can live with a patch coming later if we get a similar trailer like with Wyvern or even a countdown or splash page at or immediately after the major.

i really wonder how ppl end up in LPQ

i have about 3100hours of dota and i have never been muted or in LP

Everybody i know say they are innocent.

pls explain

I've been in LPQ twice because I abandoned games in the beginning or during picks when it was clear I had no intention of spending 30 to 60 minutes with those people.

I've been in LPQ in a couple of times, I'm in right now actually.

But it's because my router sucks. It'll randomly shut down and since I have Time Warner it takes 20 minutes++ to get a signal back from them.

It happens so randomly, this being the first time in months, that I always forget to replace it.

I have the same number of hours and went there once for one game. Reports do not seem to matter, it is more the frequency of abandons, as quoted below. In my case, I abandoned 2 games for more important matters in the past 3 days, so I got one game in LPQ.

tobi + synderen is the best combo. f the haters

Tobi = Chris Berman

It seems some people like them, but both get on my nerves after about five minutes. It isn't that they are terrible...it is just that they aren't for me. Oh well, at least the game seems to be in a good spot.
