Another game ruined by being the 5th wheel of a 4 stack.

In ranked only 2s can join the solo queue right?

edit: I'm going to need to watch it to see how sniper ends up 4-14 mid against oracle, only thing I can think of is shit player, but I know that already

In solo ranked, you can at worst get ether two pairs of 2s, or one set of 3 and another single person. Though I think 90% of the time its 3 single people, and maybe a duel stack (Which will have the person with the highest MMR, and their dead weight friend)
 
The last game of VG vs IG showed that "meta" is such a stupid thing in the Pro scene.
They picked 4 heroes that are not really in the current "meta" and stomped a 6.83 draft like nothing.

Imho most pro teams get way too carried away with the "overpowered" heroes in each patch and forget the old heroes/tactics. Alliance is also kinda good in sometimes picking "different" heroes and are not doing too bad.

I also find it very interesting to complain about Troll and Sniper all the time and then often not ban them in the first round. So other heroes are still on a higher priority list? There is a reason most games have Troll/Sniper in them, they are obviously not ban-worthy enough.

Sniper and Troll still need a slight nerf though.

But I still think the community, and the pro scene, is way too fast in judging heroes as overpowered. There are so many counters to every hero in the pool. Look at the rise of Spirit Breaker for example, perfect counter to Sniper.
Also Jugger was the OP hero at the start of 6.83 and is often ignored now.

If you want to see me feed for sure, sure, but I won't do it in ranked games because it's basically a guaranteed loss.

if your main concern is feeding on a support, you really should learn all the facets of the game since spam picking storm and tinker is getting you no where

That, and being poor sucks on any hero, regardless of performance in the game, unless your team is rolling them, you're going to be XP and gold starved the whole game, which is just stressful.

im not sure what to say

that's not true though

see: crystal maiden, keeper of the light, lich, disruptor, vengeful spirit, DeHuey, etc.


"It's not the way I like to play so I'm not going to do it and you can't make me!!"

Who is DeHuey?

That's how I've always hated about playing support, you try to ward, maybe get boots by 10 minutes, your carry yells at you for actually trying to last hit your pull so you can afford wards, boots, and some other stuff. Then you are level 8 15 minutes in because you have to play like you are on thin ice because you are always the easiest kill. I promise you, I have tried support. I'm not good at it, and it ain't for me.

Real talk: If you "maybe get boots by 10 minutes" as support youre just bad at the game. Or new.

You're infuriating sometimes. You subject this thread to constant posts of complaining about teammates, blaming them for your loss, not being able to understand that you wanna play as a farming mid, but then you post shit like this. There are clearly plenty of facets to Dota that you just straight up don't understand.

If you spam storm spirit, your MMR should be shooting through the fucking roof, but for you it keeps going down. Weird.

The fact that youre not even willing to try play supports to the point where you are competent on them is pretty messed up

Especially since you have over 3000 games played

Just man up and play some CM or Venge for a few games

It will help literally every other part of your play

Saying "i dont support cause im bad" is a piss poor excuse

Its easy to win with supports, if you are willing to put in the time to learn them

Everyone agrees that you need to expand your hero pool. You dont even need to play ranked. Go spam 20 games of unranked to learn some support skills. It can only help
