It also says Bloodseeker is a jungler, but I wouldn't recommend it.[/QUOTE]
axe excels at jungling tho
he has the easiest time with it
Dooms who rush aghanims
PLs who think they only need radiance to win the game
Shadow fiends who rush blink dagger and act like they are initiators
voids who chrono your entire team
the list goes and goes
why do i keep playing support? i should try to play carry someday, but i hate to see the minimap without wards and no courier
[QUOTE=Suttles;38654645]axe is a VERY good jungler tho?[/QUOTE]
not VERY good, unless u stack camps and shit.
Axe has incredible lane potential, and early-game potential especially so, if the right precautions are made.

In other words, you can completely fuck the easy lane up for a support and a carry trying to farm.

Play someone who can support but also slide into a carry, Necrolite perhaps?

I used to pick up invisibility runes when I started dota and played riki just to hear his invisibility lines.

Imo lone druid is best played as a hybrid, send the bear in to jungle :v:

short lane, pull creeps to help you of course.

Radiance.

Hes awful at jungle.
He can't be better in jungle than in lane unless he has like 100% helix rate.
Oh god, a game I had yesterday.
I solo-queued since my brother was at work and my other brother was playing with friends. Fuck this shit, I'm feeling masochistic today.
First warning signs went off at the loading screen since the names made it obvious that I must've done something TRULY godawful to end up on a team with 4 Russians. Then we get to the picking. I pick Ursa because I'll be fucked if I'm gonna take my chances and assume I run into 4 decent Russians at the same time, I'm going bottom and jungle the fuck out of this!
Up comes the second set of warning signs. They buy their items, one of them runs to mid (Clinkz I think it was, I can't remember) and the other 3 run bot.
Did I mention we were Radiant by the way?
After an amount of arguing and unintelligible replies that even an optimist would call wasted time ("Guys, either someone swap with me or go top with me" "Fuck yuu nub go tup") I just give up and go top. Being on a team with 4 un-co-operative Russians is bad enough, I can at least TRY to create a silver lining.
Okay, fight starts, time to ride the creep wave. Let's see, who am I laning against?
Pudge and Viper.
Let me give you a rundown of what followed.
Couldn't LH for shit, which meant I couldn't get items for shit.
Pudge was a good hooker, I was apparently quite delicious.
Russian cunts kept ragging at me for dying all the time (or at least I assumed they did, their English was abysmal, surprise surprise) while feeding pretty hardcore themselves.
Russian cunts kept ragging at me for being underleveled and having shit items.
Russian cunts kept ragging at me for being a shit laner.
We got absolutely stomped, ground into dust and stomped some more.
Damn near foaming at the mouth.
I had a game with 3 Russians who dived under towers from level 2 and every 5 minutes after that (dying every time) and started spamming allchat with Cyka, which I later learned means bitch, every time they die, fun game..
God this fucking Tinker
His last played games were almost all Tinker
He goes Bottle first
He's against a Nyx and gets like 20 minute boots of travel when not really even leaving the lane
When he does leave the lane he just sits in our lane stealing farm for a bit doing nothing before TPing back
Gets Ghost Scepter first item (We were against a Lifestealer so Ghost Scepter isn't awful, but if you're a Tinker at least get a fucking Force Staff)
Keeps buying Dust against a Slark and then complains that Slark is bugged, and this was with two supports buying gems and wards constantly, so he was just throwing his money away while we really needed a Scythe to stop Lifestealer from raping us
We won purely because they had a retarded team with Slark, Nyx, and BH, but it really shouldn't have gone 60+ minutes
[editline]1st December 2012[/editline]
Now we get this fucking BH
Gets track at 10 because "he doesn't have enough mana to support it"
yeah, when you don't get any fucking mana regen items I can see why mana is an issue
I sometimes really hate premade teams of 2-3 who turn up on my side. God forbid if they start dying and feeding before 10mins, they all start to blame me, the hard carry for not taking part their fights. The next 15min end up trash talking and fighting over how lame every single second of existence or the items are.
As much as I understand the need for communication, I just wish there was a way to completely block text chat. For now I will use my 2x post-it notes -.-
Its the only time I want to exit dota and play another game.

Premades are godawful.
They are either russians, generally bad, or a guy playing with a newbie friend who will defend him no matter what he does and blame you.
Every time.
I've yet to find an exception to this.

You'd like to play against us then.
I often queue up with my brothers and a friend or two and we ain't afraid to give one another shit when you fuck up.

My IRL friends are really bad and I'm not scared to give them shit for it.

It's really fun if you play with some friend of yours, you should try it...
...and I don't need to explain to my friends that they have to buy "gem of true sight" if there's a Riki in the opposing team.
everytime spirit breaker is picked on my side i just sigh because i know we are going to lose
gave this spiritbreaker freefarm bottom lane, set up so many kills but we still lost at around the 50 min mark. checked the amount of cs he had at the end of the game, and it was 55... 55 fucking last hits in a 50 min game.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;38673513]Uh muting blocks text chat too[/QUOTE]
Aw man that was so helpful. Bottom bloodseeker solo started to feed and called on me for not helping (hard carry). Muted him and then another and even though we lost badly, it was fun. The guy had no option but to keep casting that rage buff to damage and silence me :v:

Spiritbreaker is usually a lvl6 and start leveling by kills hero. Sometime between mid and late game he will jungle, but thats pretty much it.

sb isn't a carry, you shouldn't rely on his farm
[QUOTE=Suttles;38677305]sb isn't a carry, you shouldn't rely on his farm[/QUOTE]
he should still be getting more than 55 last hits when he takes the safe lane
Bara can take the mid-lane. It benefits him very well actually. He needs his levels fast so he can get ganking.
Just played with a genius Enchantress.
It was single draft and we all played pretty bad, but she took the cake.
Never got her passive, didn't stack, didn't pull for our solo Dragon Knight, and used her slow I think once.
After we lost horribly, she said "pick more op heros."
They had a Pugna.

Muting also blocks map drawing and pinging, if I remember rightly.
