The link was a short answer to the given question. Troll is fine, you just need to know how to use him. I think he's just tough to play well. Your quote is not really applicable to my link, also.
"check out this one account that spams this character constantly"
He doesn't spam troll, he just picks it semi-regularly and knows what he's doing. Most of it in solo queue at the top of the NA ladder.
Comparing to the examples in your quoted post: Broodmother smurf that places in unranked 5 stacks exclusively. Lina spammer with 50% win and middling kd. Most of those hero spam accounts don't have high kds or impressive win rates anyway.
The point is for a hero to effective enough to win consistently at that level, it's probably not hurting in significant ways. There are plenty of heroes that are "fine" but just don't fit in the comp meta or aren't trending, so you won't see them.
I'm confused.

i feel like trolls window is really small compared to other heroes before you just become a walking r button
you can make things happen and snowball
but doing that is easier on storm or clinkz or something
also hes really squishy and i wish he had more tank
and his scaling is goofy where you kind of have to max axes
Icefrog plz remake OD into fun hero.

I really can't understand how Dreamleague has managed to screw up their season so much, I mean apparently it was rushed but how...they knew there would be a second season, they're just so incompetent
They''ve gone from being the biggest third party Western tournament, to one with an awful schedule (two games at once), awful viewership, requiring a stupid amount of commitment from players (for what is a comparatively low prize pool) etc
I wonder if they'll even have a Season 3 after this, and if teams will even bother to play in it again

I can only imagine that there are internal issues currently since they recently fired the CEO, and they also had the unfortunate luck of putting some less then stellar admins in charge. There is always next Season.

I just want to say that I hate the new drop system. I've gained roughly two levels since the last patch and have not had a single thing drop.
I've found this old gem and :

My favorite thing is when they get ganked by a roaming Nyx/Mirana and blame mid for not calling miss, when the actual enemy mid laner is in fact standing in lane as they type.
This game is over. Skadi doesn't give enough damage to deal with illusions

That match reminded me (for whatever reason): What can I do against spectre other than try to stop her farming? I realize some heroes are particularly good against spec, but it seems like if you get behind early and don't have one of those heroes it's gg.

I played a game yesterday where enemy Troll went Phase > Helm > Butterfly.
I have no idea why he went Butterfly that early and we all ended up getting early MKBs and squashing him (and their Riki that loved to spam Smoke Screen).

I wonder if they are moving to San Francisco or China. That would be amazing if they took that EG money and broadened their market.
EG and Malaysia could secure 1st and 2nd in every tournament. Force 2 slots for NA every major.

do i have the best boss or what
How many of you feel like your MMR is indicative of your skill?
A dissimilar statement: Ever since they made known player MMR i feel like i have been enjoying the game less and obsessing more about my MMR... i remember when i gave 0 fucks and just played to PLAY. Having said that ranked games do tend to have more serious players/picks lol, so i suppose that aspect of it is much better.

They added moon whirl, and abyssasl watcher and eye of foresight to d2l betting..
Looks like those prices are going to stabilize and not increase : (
This makes them more liquid in terms of sellability, but as long term investments probably going to stay at the current price or wose.

I'm fine with where my MMR is. I played League long enough to know I'm not that great at these kinds of games and I don't invest the time to get better. I wish the other people in my bracket were as realistic and that matches didn't have so much variance, but considering I'm scrub tier that's not really possible.
To further, I played through like 2 or 3 season of League and every season I finished in roughly the same skill bracket, which is basically the one where the average/below average player ends up. The empirical evidence is too strong for me to say "well if my team mates were better I'd win more!". I've played in houses and shit with people who were 3k, 4k or whatever and I can tell that I'm severely out classed.
I remember playing in an IHL for another site and getting mid matched against people who were like 700+ Elo higher than me. It becomes apparent pretty fast that you're not on the same level when you up against someone that much better.
Not unless more are made, none of ether have been added since October 15th.
