I should clarify I was talking about ranked (I only play rmm) and the two player parties I keep getting. It's generally a high MMR player that insists on laning with a potato buddy of his (my last game he was a feeding Witch Doctor literally called Potato). They often pick some retarded gimmick like Pudge/Techies and double flame you if you try to talk any sense to them.
No it really isn't. Each soloq retard is in the same boat, risking the same solo MMR and acquainted equally with each other player.
The two friend parties introduce more potential for toxicity and a divided team because they are more likely to:
Play in a biased manner, prioritizing aiding/playing with each other.
Have an 'everyone is a retard except us' attitude.
More likely to forcefully take a lane and pick a gimmicky duo.
Not risking the same rating (people don't care as much about party ratings).
Yes the chances of winning are the same. That is not the point.
The system creates more toxic, unfun games than regular soloq, win or lose. I shouldn't need to point out either that taking control of a 2|3v2|3 is not as easy as a 5v5.
Just accept that whatever problems you have with the system are being experienced by every other player in the system too. The only constant is yourself.

"If everyone is subject to a problem you should just accept it/it isn't a problem".
Not a reason to not improve a system.
Faulty logic, try again.
Its not even a problem though, the only thing that annoys me about people stacking in ranked is that if you call someone out whos stacking with others the whole group defends a shit player, even then I just stop talking to them then and carry on playing. People stack less and less as mmr gets higher anyway so its not a problem for everyone, I haven't even had a stack in 2016 in my solo ranked games.
[QUOTE=Louis;49759397]It doesn't happen to me regularly so it isn't a problem[/QUOTE]
Not a reason. Can confirm regular party games at 5k.
Valve can improve it.

It's astonishing how this set is even lower quality than the default set, even before they updated his model.

Who do we chose to believe, me saying that it is a problem or you saying it isnt! Vote now everyone!! Or better yet concern yourself with actual problems with the game.

yet it still got accepted by whoever is selecting items to get it because of sexxy thumbnails/loading screen, oh yes, classic valve

So which is the bigger sin
The fact that luna has a golden immo but the eclipse is still normal colored
or the fact that shes using her ult in the middle of a creep wave?

Well Sven and Wraith King are right there.
Apparently Team Secret owes players a total of half a million bucks:

Also maybe she has Aghs Refresher??? Then because there's 6 melee creeps in focus there would have to be 8 creeps in the area total (two waves of the setup type that spawns before the first new melee creep is added which is 3 melee + 1 ranged) and it only takes 2 beams to kill a creep so they'd only absorb 16 out of 36 beams, and that's only if the beams target them that much anyway
[editline]17th February 2016[/editline]
I mean sure it's 4800 damage but it's still out of 10800, so you'd still have 6000 which is more than enough to kill at least one of them between Sven and WK, and again that's still assuming RNG is brutal enough that you actually hit every creep two times each

Neither, the biggest sin is how all the Dire creeps' masks are interpreted as faces

But she's in the middle of a creep wave.
You don't ult as Luna in the middle of a creep wave, the beams will just hit the creeps and ignore any heroes there.
Every. Single. Time
Time for some old gold because this one never fails to make me laugh:

My friend spent a lot of time basically learning to jungle with every hero. Smart guy.
Basically he proves huskar can be one of, if not the fastest jungler in the game.

Adding onto this, at the time Luna would have Treads Aghs Refresher, Sven would have Treads, SnY, HotD, Blink, and an Ogre Club, and would be level 16 (presumably). So he'd have 1919 hp, meaning he'd only require around 9-10 beams to be killed, leaving the rest for WK.
[QUOTE=Clovis;49761895]you can do the same shit to solo rosh at level 7 with brown boots armlet if you're extremely good at it, i've seen it been done before but its stupid how precise it is

Fuck playing huskar in 2016 though[/QUOTE]
It's not about rosh. It's about the most net worth at 10 mins.
