This game was a rollercoaster both emotionally and game-wise. I've long ago mastered the art of tactical feeding, and I put it to full use this game, throwing body after body upon the enemy in desperate attempts at bogging them down with the sheer weight of my gold and corpses.
What matches have you played recently that you are amazed you won.
Here are 2 of mine:

In this one I played Bristleback mid. SF didn't want mid so I took it.
He had to solo bot, as Juggernaut was jungling.
I got flamed by SF as I did bad mid (got a late bottle which made things worse).
We manage to team fight against them twice and do a push for victory thus winning the game.

Necrophos had bad connection, and would disconnect and reconnect around 10 seconds later.
We almost lost the game as we had only 1 pair of barracks left.
We managed to wipe them around 57 minutes and did a victory push.
I am amazed how few deaths me and sniper got in a 58 minute game.
According to Dotabuff this match was apparently not even normal skill, Slardar did buy Deso + dominator.

Somehow got into random 1.5k mmr stack, when i saw lion spamming spikes on ground instead on people durring laning i was pretty sure i'll lose. At mid game we were loosing pretty hard from objective point so i declined to motivate them with "see enemy hero - kill them" because i knew they wont be doing anything midgame nor lategame themself... apparently my motivation worked, with me as example diving under towers, was a pretty drifting game and such.
They are showing the trailer for the Warcraft movie at EPICENTER.
Holy fuck the irony is so thick you could use it for caulking a bathroom.
Literally advertising a BLIZZARD MOVIE DURING A VALVE GAME TOURNAMENT I don't know how much longer I can take this. Definitely not worth staying up till 5 am on my birthday thanks Epicenter.
Also, Russia will never get a major now.

I think I am just going to bed too. At this point, I'm not even going to make it through one series, let alone the second series, ya know, the one that actually matters, the grand finals.
Obviously its just a smart way to substitute games technical delays, eh
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;50324402]Here's what I love about Epicenter: they do exactly what everyone hates about Russians and keep speaking in that incomprehensible language of theirs.
I don't care where the event is hosted. The main stuff should always be in English. If I click on the English stream, only to be greeted by 20 minutes of russian nonsense, then something is wrong.[/QUOTE]
...what? Even at the Shanghai Major all the main stage presentations were made in Chinese. I don't know what the majority language of the Philippines is but I expect all the main stage presentations to be in that language as well. That's just stupid to expect otherwise.

WOOO GAME 5 GRAND FINALS HPPPYEE!
Epicenter has give us soo much good dota with barely any issues and great production value. It truely is one of the best lans weve had in a long time.
I went echo spectre, dunno if it was the item or if it was just desolate and spectre herself being so fucking good.
Then again, as soon as I had echo, I started tearing everything up, until 3 of the enemies left.
If Liquid buy a pipe, maybe even two, they've won this game easy. If they totally ignore a Pipe I don't think they're going to keep this one.

Also my roaming pos 5 Riki build is still doing fine
[url]https://yasp.co/matches/2366116865/[/url]
Usually I do 4-1-1-1 (first level invis, second level smoke) with OoV Tangos Clarity Courier/Ward at the start (and buying Wind Lace ~1:30 minutes in or so ) building into Arcanes => Vlads/Greaves depending on what you need more along with getting the hatchet and gem after that.
The definition of roaming

The neutral spawnbox indicators won't show for me.
Even though I have them enabled.
Also how do I make the range indicator for spells more visible?

You think thats bad?
Try losing because your SF died 5 times in less than 5 mins at mid, and whenever he ults, he probably hits ONE hero for the minimum damage.
Like, I have never seen something like this. There was one part when the enemy barreled through bot racks and we all started fighting behind them, almost near the ancient.
For some fucking reason, SF stopped auto attacking, turned around, walked towards the bot t3 tower, stood by its side where nobody was, and ultied.
If he even hit the mirana with the ult's minimum damage, then thats already a lot.
I asked him why would he ult miles away from everyone, as if he was trying to get reception for a cellphone or if he went "I must go to the mountains and shout!"... He said "I did it for the damage reduction" or some stupid shit like that. I have no idea what he had in mind, but he always did this. Get away from the enemies, and I mean not still in range but very AWAY, and ult for no damage.
Don't you love it when your team has conflicting ideas on what to do to win?
So many times have I had games where the carry bevieves that we should get him kills by initiating as many teamfights as we can take and other people (normally the supports) tell him to back off and farm instead. This causes the carry and one or two others (often me) going in with him to take the fight ourselves. The only reason I go with him is so he doesn't dive in alone which he would do anyways, unless there is absolutely no way to win the fight. This is also why I play teamfight supports such as Phoenix do much.
The carry dies and gets behind in kills, and we get fucked late game.
Another common one is where everyone BUT the carry goes into fight and the carry gets shit farm because this is 1k. Then the team's supports and problably mid get all the gold which means fuck all in the late game. Meanwhile the enemy carries get a significant gold advantage because they are present in the fights they do win and buy early to mid game damage items. Commence snowball.
If I carry myself, I get fucked due to lack of support or just due to my inability to farm efficiantly.
God plays dice here in 1k
I've only won like 2 games since the update and I don't know why :(
Fuck the report system. I should NOT be in a new game with people who I reported in the last match
What the fuck is this "international ranked" shit?
Does it reset my MMR or go off of my original ranked MMR?
If it's the former (I doubt) then this could be many's ticket out of 1k hell
