              games against good pango are pointless
              i dont understand how the fuck does icefrog ignore that hero even after 7.08

                          u can't imagine the cancer until you play against a tinker and a techies booster in the same match.

                            not a single winnable game before and after low prio

                              winning my lane doesnt do jackshit
                              trying to coordinate my team doesnt do jackshit

                              mb i should stop queuing during off hours, one would think that people might be actually a bit normal - they're probably less toxic than normal queue times but they're incredibly low skilled

                                              offlane is the most fun role in the game :o
                                              run in -> die to 3 -> repeat -> keep 3 enemies shackled to you like dogs, still get xp -> mid and safelane are winning coz theyre playing 4v2

                                                how does that work

                                                  How viable is axe

                                                  casual gamer

                                                    47.6% viable

                                                      i wish valve brought back the creep spawns on 0:30

                                                      having one pos 5 and one roamer in 95% games is moronic

                                                              offlane DK , decides to go 0-12 at like the 10 min mark.
                                                              IT should be noted that he picked DK into an and tusk ET, razor came next.
                                                              needless to say he just kept going solo to lanes and feeding, repeatedly.
                                                              Pushed a bunch and said not a single word the entire time. would also go solo lane and just push. basically it was a 4v5 the entire game.

                                                              He did enjoy spamming pings from time to time.

                                                              Well we won, 1-20 DK. At the end of the game, he said " I made space for us to win"
                                                              End of the day, I suppose he was better then an AFK jungler, but still it was tilt worthy.

                                                              We won, he got 4 reports.... everygame is winnable!

                                                                Great start to the new patch by going 0-4.
                                                                I would say that I sucked in 3 of out 4 of the matches and was a main contributing factor to why our team lost for at least 2 of those.

                                                                I just cant win games with LC or doom. I just cant effectively play those heros in the offlane :(

                                                                                Also what do u do against an Abaddon with blademail octarine radiance and aegis, the man had 2 lives, a 25 second CD, and a blademail he cud pop whenever he was getting focused. He just wouldn't die.

                                                                                casual gamer

                                                                                  abaddons ridiculous but in general ur best bet is to wear him down slowly then pop his ult and focus him only after ult/bm. ideally u can kill him right after he respawns before he has cds up. ur best bet for this is playing od/slark or at least long range damage that doesnt need to commit, but as before this is a really shitty no-win situation.

                                                                                  ofc if you have break and hex or silence you can get through ult that way but ull have to deal with it on the second life anyway. i dont think ignoring a max level abaddon with rad is a winning play unless you can kill someone REALLY important or guarantee put him out of the fight for a long time with imprison or chrono or bane sleep

                                                                                  bonus points if abaddon has blink and is thus literally impossible to punish for any variety of garbage positioning

                                                                                      you can tell ur teammates to stay hg or ping back or w/e but there really is a limit to how much you can influence behavior

                                                                                        before that do ur best to rearm blink away

                                                                                        if you fuck up rearm blink and he doesnt have manta justl aser tp away


                                                                                        last two spectres i played against built straight manta as first big item, when enemy spec in my last game was like 5 1 at 10 mins then the game was unwinnable i suppose, at least from my own perspective? (although undoubtedly i've done far too many mistakes)

                                                                                        or just play super passively but i feel like that's a way to lose anyway

                                                                                          basically like i said if u dont get the rearm blink u just die lul

                                                                                          sometimes u can walk it off if teams nearby or get the real one with laser but usually its do or die for rearm blink if they rushed manta sadly

                                                                                          u could buy glimmer ghost or force optionally. had jenkins go for glimmer before blink which was hilarious but didnt look like it worked too well
