Stuff that annoys you (In DotA 2): V. Riki + Good Player

Sniper.
He's fun to play as, but sweet god is he horrible to fight against when he gets his shit together
Whenever I play Sniper, no matter how well I'm doing, I feel like a useless turd.
Carrying the uncarryable.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be that guy but,
We've all had that match. That one match. You personally score ten or twelve kills in the first fifteen minutes with maybe two deaths. None if you're just on ~fire~.
Then the game seems to stretch out into the event horizon of the twilight zone's black fringe. The support tries to solo their carry. The jungler hasn't been seen in ages until he goes for a fountain dive. The two guys who were in top lane seem to be jerking eachother off in the side shop.
You stand before your mid tower, baffled. You're probably some flavor of ranged agility carry, like Sniper or Drow. Or perhaps you're Skeletron or Faceless Void or N'aix. Somehow teamfight after teamfight ends in a full on route. You kill one, two, maybe even three enemies. Your team crumbles like clay soldiers in a storm.
The initiator is somehow the initiat-ee ever time. The team runs from a lone luna five levels below them. Your first and second towers disappear in puffs of smoke. The jungle goes from safe deposits of farm to a mysterious amazon rife with bandits and buggerers waiting to pounce. Someone whispers ward and the only reply is, "Where we're going, you don't need eyes."
It's twenty five minutes. You stand before your barracks. It seems as if a tower stood here but you can't recall when it fell. Perhaps it never stood at all. You puff out your chest. You've got five or six deaths. Nothing to worry about though. One good push will turn it around. You alone have the pure numbers to fix it all with just enough time.
You wake up at the fourty minute mark. You look around bleary eyed from deep within your fountain. What happened? Why does their Chen have a divine rapier? How did Bloodseeker get so fat? When did a Pudge join this game? Is that Alchemist who was 0/8/0 at the ten minute mark stacking Mjolnirs now? Why is Meepo diving the fountain... dear god it's the poofpocolypse!
You weep. You weep tears that angels weep. The cries of a martyr fill the sky. Before you return to desktop to uninstall Dota 2 and seek a rehab clinic and vocation center, baneful cries errupt,
"gg noob carry"
"shit br, game needs region lock pls"
"gb2lol fagg"
"why do I suppot this guys .-."
[QUOTE=Crazy Ivan;39264315](wall)[/QUOTE]
a couple games or so ago I played morphling
our lina was fucking retarded, so I couldn't go off to happy farm land
I had to spend most of my time helping the team to pick up lina's infinite slack
she fed the enemy ursa, like abyssal/bkb/heart-level fed what the fuck
once ursa pulled the abyssal out his ass, there was pretty much nothing I could do
either I farmed and the team lost every teamfight, or I helped and ursa outleveled and outfarmed me
bkb, manta, and hotd don't mean shit when ursa hits you for 1000000 damage per hit

it looks like your team is gonna win, you have such a huge lead
and then there's always that one person
when supports take mid over carries
yes I get that there are supports that can carry
but when witch doctor refuses to give me mid as drow
I want to cry
it was seriously that venge/pudge comic except I was drow instead of pudge
I once went mid as WD, but only because we had no good mid heroes.
I got first blood.
As a solo WD.
What the fuck

WD is a great mid Hero imo. Stun, heal, great autoattack range and once he hits 6 can kill a hero very quickly if he times his casket right.

Whats wrong with solo WD?
Hes like Ursa v2 against bad players but works against slightly higher skill levels.
But there are heroes that usually need mid much more then WD does
I hate the Drow Ranger + Bloodseeker combination on the opposite team.
Same goes to Bloodseeker and sniper.
Also, I don't need to tell you how I hate rikki
[QUOTE=Behemoth_PT;39266646]Also, I don't need to tell you how I hate rikki[/QUOTE]
Make sure someone on the team has a Gem and ward up. I played a game against Riki and a Bounty Hunter on the same team earlier and they just stood near us waiting to get killed.
Teammates random Luna and Crystal Maiden, thinking that Luna goes mid and CM goes support I pick Juggernaut in the hopes of having CM give me an easy lane
"CM, you wanna go for FB?"
"no"
"mid"
"Shouldn't Luna go mid?"
"no"
Okay, so CM goes mid instead of Luna. CM bought 2 branches, some regen and saved 480 gold. Well fine, I still have botlane and Luna can go top.
Last two picks are Chaos Knight and Dragon Knight. Fuck's sakes...
"Can you buy courier CM, with random gold?"
"no"
I swear to fucking God.
Okay so CM is actually doing good, he isn't feeding Pudge, gets last hits well enough, ganks top and gets some kills. She has 2000 gold, I ask what is she saving for, no answer. She only has like 2 branches and nothing
Then she dies, buys Tranq boots, bracers and courier. Can I ask you, what the fuck is the point of saving 480 gold and not using any of it on courier, when you're gonna buy courier later on anyways?
Okay, CM is doing pretty well, too bad she is using her ice blast to last hit everything. We have 4 carries so leaving the kills to us would be smart, but she wants them. Okay, she has't fucked up so I don't whine.
Then we keep playing, the 4 of us try to equally share the farm while CM takes all the kill gold. DK isn't doing well, mostly just feeds, Luna is also feeding a bit but me and CK are doing okay. CM gets loads of kills but she also dies almost equally often.
Turns out that CM wants to be our team's fifth carry. Shadow blade? That seems smart, means that she can ult safely. She buy Ogre Club, I think she goes for BKB. Turns out no, drums and Heaven's Halberd. Later on she buys crystalys and wants to get a Daedalus. She blames me when we are losing, says my build sucks (Irony) and when we eventually lose, she is all like "bg dk jugger" "commend me pls, i was a good cm"
Jesus fucking Christ, russian strategies confuse the crap out of me. Yeah, all of my team were russians (CM and DK spoke in russian, Luna's name was in russian, CK was in skype with DK so I assume it is safe to say he was russian as well)
I try my best not to be a racist but some of these people make it very hard.
well her name [I]is[/I] critstal maiden
[editline]18th January 2013[/editline]
drums is a great pickup on her though, as it is on pretty much every hero
"Okay other support im almost done with Mek, so buy something else for the team"
[I]"k"[/I]
10 minutes later he has a Mek, its not so bad since allows splitpushing i guess, but still.
Speaking of supports, i hate when i have 3 supports on my team (me included on them) and i end up being the wardbitch, upgrade the chicken, the one who has to buy the mek, pipe , buy more wards, etc, while my omni is building a Radiance. For the love of god just help me out buying the Mek and ill ward bitch all the match
being the only support is even worse :(
"boots are my end game item"

When that happens I just don't do it.
I buy courier, I upgrade courier, they want wards, I'll buy some after boots.
Newbies that say in chat "Is this game better than LoL?"
No, we are all playing a paid MOBA as oppose to a free one because we think it's shit

The only good item in there is the helm of the dominator, purely because you can stack ancients for your carry.

my friend is almost always playing carry and if he bought hotd he'd give me shared unit control so I could use the creep to stack for him
good stuff

I've seen this only once, I don't understand why more people don't. If you can't do it while farming regularly, why not let your support do it?

Mud golems, last time I saw em was when I played a match of enigma after the finals. Never liked them, there always was the feeling of them being too much in one jungle. It ruins your experience to those fat ass pieces tar.
