Stupid people you've seen in pubs! - Games

[QUOTE=Tokagero;37946417]I.e. scaling, not static. And that's exactly what I said, your point ?[/QUOTE] Sorry, misread some parts. Your explanation is flawless actually, so no probs

[QUOTE=Gekkosan;37945823]So, to skill up Chaos Knight the right way you max out Stun and Reality Shift first? Then crit and Ult? Oh well, I wasn't too far off when playing the hero last time.[/QUOTE] It's what a lot of people tend to do because one extra Chaos Knight isn't really worth the mana consumption. You almost have to decide if you want to split or if you want a stun.

[QUOTE=Gekkosan;37945823]So, to skill up Chaos Knight the right way you max out Stun and Reality Shift first? Then crit and Ult? Oh well, I wasn't too far off when playing the hero last time.[/QUOTE] Generally you want 4/4, then take 1 in crit and 2 in ult.

:) lifestealer puts stat points in intelligence and doesnt bother jungling.

[QUOTE=Meloncakes;37957421]:) lifestealer puts stat points in intelligence and doesnt bother jungling.[/QUOTE] what do you mean? Int power treads? Int starting items?

[QUOTE=Meloncakes;37957421]:) lifestealer puts stat points in intelligence and doesnt bother jungling.[/QUOTE] Lifestealer is better off in lane than in the jungle.

[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;37957667]Lifestealer is better off in lane than in the jungle.[/QUOTE] Depend on lanes. Also, in your average pub game, if they're not in a lane, they don't exist, and so after 30 minutes in jungle naix comes out with enough items to ruin everyone.

Tidehunter who didn't max-out his Anchor Smash first and didn't utilize it with slows/ult, didn't [b]spam[/b] it.

Yea, lifestealer is a great laner. Really PISSES me off when my friend ALWAYS jungles as him. I don't mind playing solo witchdoctor, but I'd prefer to be supporting you. [editline]8th October 2012[/editline] Oh, and the game where batrider random was the only reason we lost, I saved the batrider's ass early on. Don't know why he went top, he switched afterwards. Juggernaut was spinning and lich was slowing, batrider had 10 hp. I had 1 point in my stun, since the match just started. I was just going to my lane, and saw the incident. I cried, and rushed foward. I threw my stun and BANG. Jug was TOO close to the tower. My stun killed them both.(thanks to the tower and my autoattacks)

I think any time you have the option of someone jungling they should. Assuming someone on the team can handle a solo lane its like they're both getting double xp and probably more gold. But it really depends who gets stuck with solo.

Wisp doesnt tether and tps in saying "WTF Y U NOT GANK" drow doesnt know what tether is silencer uses ult after the teamfight silencer puts all the blame on me

Dumbest match I've had so far; Lion, Clinkz, Doom Bringer(me), Ogre Magi and Bloodseeker against [B]5 melee carries[/B] (this was Single Draft, when I saw their picks I was just about to say gg.) In the end, we lost to Magnus, SK, Ursa, Sven and someone else, I can't remember because I'm sick. That was pretty embarassing..

[url]https://dotabuff.com/matches/47761161[/url] 35 minute vanguard alchemist all he had at 35 minutes: phase ROB vanguard ... Only reason we won that is we had better team fight, me to counterpush, and sylla to push. [editline]8th October 2012[/editline] [url]https://dotabuff.com/matches/47742155[/url] oh and this game our pudge was Dc'd for half the game, he had to eat THEY NEVER BOUGHT A GEM OR SENTRY WARDS. 3 invis heroes

I call mid, foreigner idiot calls mid at the last second in all pick and goes pudge. He tells me to move or he feeds- so I tell him to feed. Match ID for the horror/hilarity: 47780034

Had a game where I was disruptor and my friend was templar assassin. the rest of the team was AA, magnus, and riki. the enemy team was silencer, lifestealer, undying, shadow fiend, and bounty hunter. Game goes alright, friend is mid and getting feed and im ganking silencer every so often. magnus wont last hit because hes afraid of undying and silencer. I notice its 10 min mark and riki is still lvl 5 with strength power treads. we are leading with kills, then around the 15 min mark it goes down hill. top lane is constantly pushed by 4 people while lifestealer is still in jungle. i cant do really anything because magnus is an idiot that only leveled his Q and stats. my friend helps every so often but we still get obliterated. AA cant hit the fucking side of a barn with his ulti and misses all the time with it. and [B]THIS FUCKING RIKI[/B] does nothing every battle, or just tries to last hit constantly or tries to solo the whole team. lifestealer comes out of the jungle like fucking AM in that comic and all of us together cant kill him. we lost and the riki at the end goes gg wp like an asshole. [editline]8th October 2012[/editline] and AA never leveled chilling touch the whole game

[QUOTE=Gekkosan;37958618]Tidehunter who didn't max-out his Anchor Smash first and didn't utilize it with slows/ult, didn't [b]spam[/b] it.[/QUOTE] you max gush first I thought

[QUOTE=supersocko;37965071]you max gush first I thought[/QUOTE] How you level Tide's abilities should always be situational.

For a moment I thought this thread was about actual pubs I was gravely mistaken

A luna that didn't rank ulti until lvl 17? Implying that the mana cost was too high.

Someone who said "SOLO MID I PLAY INVOKER" and then invoker is picked on the other team, so he goes lion and decides to fucking solo suicide lane and says "yeah we can have bounty (me) windrunner and kotl trilane with nyx mid" He plays like a carry and says "am farming, ill be helping fight soon" and then gets ganked over and over and says "rosh i take" when i'm fucking soloing it as BH and he steals my aegis, then he keeps trying to carry and i'm raping the enemy team and shutting down riki and antimage, then I buy a rapier so we can kill the goddamn ancient because the rest of my team has shit for brains and just runs around and lion is farming like fuck. Then when it ends he says "gg guys bh all killsteal from me" when he's 0-6-2

[QUOTE=Jawyen;37968499]A luna that didn't rank ulti until lvl 17? Implying that the mana cost was too high.[/quote] I had a tiny skip toss because of mana problems. Christ.

[QUOTE=Gate;37957553]what do you mean? Int power treads? Int starting items?[/QUOTE] ie: He doesn't have any points in any of his skills (except for I think it was Rage), everytime he levels up he puts the points in Int. He started with a magic wand and 2 branches. [editline]9th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;37957667]Lifestealer is better off in lane than in the jungle.[/QUOTE] Yeah, but if lifestealer is in jungle the bottom lane gets more experience (assuming we're on the radiant), and he can gank at anytime, so unless the enemy warded our jungle (which is unlikely, seeing this is a pub game), they wouldn't see him coming.

[QUOTE=supersocko;37965071]you max gush first I thought[/QUOTE] I don't see why you would want to do that in most cases. Anchor Smash is cheaper and a spammable skill. It's also good for farming or rather, clearing a lane. But obviously you should level up Gush alongside with Anchor Smash, it is a nuke-slowing spell after all, but early maxed out Anchor Smash just does so much damage with a low cooldown, it's incredible. (And if you need block early game, get Stout Shield. So in no situation should you start leveling Kraken Shell early, which leaves you with just Anchor Smash and Gush.) I also tend to get Blink Dagger before mana boots, which might be a reason why I don't go all-out with Gush.

[QUOTE=Banned?;37965450]How you level Tide's abilities should always be situational.[/QUOTE] Except for Kraken Shell. Get one level of it, then never touch it again for the rest of the game. (Unless there is a Broodmother or PL on the other team)

I just played with a venomancer who claimed he wasn't a support, refused to buy courier and proceed to get all the last hits on my lane. I was Nyx

[QUOTE=Rawbutbull;37971995]I just played with a venomancer who claimed he wasn't a support, refused to buy courier and proceed to get all the last hits on my lane. I was Nyx[/QUOTE] I just played as Venomancer and got the enemy Phantom Assassin dead before a minute. Then I did the same a minute later. And again.

MY win rate will never be over 50%. It got to like 46, then I kept getting matched with leavers. Gah Also, if shadow demon uses his disruption on phantom assassin, its so fun. The illusions get those crits :V

There was a chen on the enemy team, so i went venomancer and put one point in wards to block all the creep camps without getting two sets of wards might have been a bit dumb since plague wards only last 40 seconds, but whataever then my lane mate starts complaining for no real reason (because I called him on not harassing and just hugging the tower while the enemy carry was getting freefarm the previous day) Later on we go agaisnt gyro, I slow him with gale and ping, he follows with a stun, notice gyro casted call down so I move, he doesn't, gets killed, I get killed too, and then he bitches even harder "OH WOW GOOD IDEA YOU GOT BOTH OF US KILLED" [QUOTE=Sarracenia;37957717]Depend on lanes.
