My solo queue experience has gone to shit ever since Valve removed the solo queue preference feature. Only won 30% of my games ever since that change happened.

Solo Q ranked or unranked?

Well my ping was normal as usual. but i faced different problem 70% of time i got noob teammates and it really made me frustrated. any idea how to overcome this problem?

Get good carry team I'm not even kidding man. There is also problems that are time related like don't play when it's afternoon for the pinoys, but mostly it's just your bracket man, as long as you're in a low bracket your team mates will feel like retards. After a month and a half I've managed to grind my way back up to 3900 my team mates are much much better now.

@StrikerX Ping has gone back down but there are still times I connect to a game and it's giving me 220ish ms, Restarting my router seems to fix this issue sometimes but I need to restart every game its weird. Plus EU routing has gone to shit as well. 300+.

In other news did anyone manage to catch the Dota Staff Cup last night? (pliss no kill me Raza)

I also lost some games initially after that. But now I've started winning again because I keep spamming the heroes I'm very good at. Get's a bit boring at times but gotta increase that MMR

[MENTION=11094]StrikerX[/MENTION] i watched that game live lol.... loda was pissed.... they started the game, then 2 minutes into the game, fnatic took one tower and alliance took 2 kills... the admins paused and wanted to rmk... both teams said no, since game had already had a bit of action and loading is ultra bugged.... this kept on happening with the admins trying to get a rmk and both teams saying no... then the admins just went quiet.... 20 minutes into the game, the game was like 70% through, fnatic had tower advantage and a fat dp, and alliance was ahead in kills... the admins just came on and said "you guys know this result won't be counted right?" lol.... loda and n0tail lost it

- - - Updated - - -

what happened was that this was the first game when the d2cl people introduced that milestone system.... it boosted the ticket sales A LOT... and people went on steam servers Abuses will lead to baning about how they paid for tickets and the first game after that is unavailable.... fking idiot people

Haha yeah I was watching the XMG's Fnatic vs Liquid game where one of the players was having connection issues. N0tail made the reference of that match saying "remake ", Synderen got the joke and explained what he was referring to the viewers.

 

[Shary Bhallu TC]

Loda was like "you fucking dumb". LOL It was a stupid oversight by the admins.

 

[StrikerX]

Anyways,

The tournament has now requested that all teams involved replay the season.
“Same picks, same items, same lanes,” said administrator DeJaVoid. “The players should try to remember roughly where they were ganked and when.”

“We’re very confident we can win the previous D2CL, because we actually won the D2CL,” said Alliance captain Jonathan “Loda” Berg. “You guys should probably bet your rares on us.”

Berg has since lost the hat he wore while playing D2CL Season 1 matches, sources say he must find an identical hat or face disqualification.

RE: valve matchmaking in ranked - played round about 6 matches yesterday and won all of them. before that was on a loosing streak of I dont know how long. The last match was something even my team mates were saying wasnt possible... my rubik along with sniper, silencer, OD against Spirit breaker, LS, Pudge Jakiro. One of my team mates said gg at the begining but we played anyway. the OD didnt even make bkb and despite all that we won... even when my team was crap against the OP on paper atleast.

And one more thing I realized has valve reduced the leveling speed? even after all these games yesterday Im still at level 86.

Also previously I was witnessing huge spikes in my mmr (from 2600 to 2700 then suddenly to 2400 etc) but now the more games I play the mmr change is becoming smaller. Is it based on overall games average? coz according to that I shouldve played those first 10 games much more seriously.

LMAO ufff yaar yeh n0tail kya cheez hai .

N0tail and DeMoN show Alliance who’s boss

I'm convinced that if you let lycan get a ~7 minute vlads through the jungle, it's GG. I've played a lot of games with him now and I don't whether people at my bracket don't know how to deal with junglers or pushers in general, but losing with lycan feels next to impossible as he's just so fucking....... powerful :laugh1:
He's also the perfect solo que hero. You don't care whether your team has fed 20 kills in 10 minutes as long as you get that vlads and roshan in ten minutes. Why hasn't he been discovered as yet by pubbers is beyond me, but I'm enjoying the hell out of playing him while he's still extremely stong. Hopefully the nerf hammer won't hit him as it did once. He's not even an afk farmer as he can come online in as soon as 10 minutes.

 

[Raza7154]

Lycan loses massively in the late game... And is also a pretty weak jungle (as in extremely susceptible to ganks)... Just cuz noobs can't deal with him doesn't mean the hero is OP

I rarely let the game go late though I suspect you're right mostly. Late game carries can counterpush quite effectively. Juyngling stage is probably his biggest weakeness as I rely on the enemy team not disturbing me in the jungle to get my items up. I've had game where I was shut down hard in the jungle and from then on it was an uphill battle. I wasn't explicitly saying that the hero is OP in general but in the 3.3-3.4 MMR, it's quite difficult to lose games with him
