Well...you played Sniper against PA and Weaver. People can't blame you for feeding,..Sniper is complete **** against carries with mobility so the hero was just a bad pick this game.
(btw my advice is to buy a forcestaff against carries like PA or you're just food)

There's a matchmaking section on this forum, feel free to post what you like to play and make some friends :)

Im allways getting force staff againts PA, BH etc. But in this game,my plan was to get MKB and then force,because PA wasnt touching me,but when she started,she was allready unstopable and force wouldnt save me.Anyway,i just tried one more game,got nyx in mid vs sniper,was doing pretty fine,went top for a gank,but it was warded,i missed a stun and backed.And TECHIES ! started Report nyx,useless ****. Thats it,now im taking break for sure.

I'be been through your situation. But i did this. I muted the players that were rude. I tried to pick the best hero for the current lineups. And i played for myself (that means i picked heros that donst need help for your team, miderrs or junglerrs, offlaners) I won all the games like this. Learn some of that heros.\

I can play pretty much all heroes,except mirana,sf and pudge ( accuracy ones ) .But playing alone with team muted and solo farming kills the multiplayer game factor,if i would want to play alone i would chose bot matches.Thanks guys for your responses and help,hopefully break from dota will bring back fun in gaming.

@Timm - i got no friends playing Dota. Everyone is on LoL,Smite,HOTS or WoW,so im all alone.


For IRL friends, same here they're focus on playing LoL or Heroes and when I try to get them onboard they say it's "too hardcore" or "I've already invested a lot of time into LoL". I've got maybe one or two people that plays Dota but only if I ask them. I've met most of my "doto friends" that I play with consistently here on Dotafire and if I got the chance to meet them IRL then great except Wulfstan of course(hue hue hue). Message any of us to play, you can focus on improving or can mess around in in normal matchmaking.

Well... Everyone's already said taking a break can be very good, so I can skip that. However, one thing that helps me at least is
A) playing ranked almost exclusively with friends, and about half the time I play unranked with them
B) narrow your match search settings for
- the language you speak
- the one, two, or three servers closest to you.
This helps make sure that, at the start of the game, you at least get a chance to communicate with the other players and get to know them. First impressions help a lot.

That's just my two cents, feel free to disregard it if you don't like it
when a thing is done, it's done. Don't look back.

Yeah all my friends play LoL except two.

They always say they'll never get into dota, because the heroes are ugly :/

My settings allways was and allways be EU WEST and English,nothing more.But even then you get 60% russians,30% whatever you want but not english and 10% english speaking lads :D

Well that's kind of the trick, isn't it? You need to weed out the cancer players, the flamers, and the russians who refuse to communicate in English, and play normal dota and communiate with the rest.

That's why I heavily suggest muting ~2 people out of 5 each game in solo queue and try to play normally with the rest.

There are not only *******s, there are a lot of *******s : that's different. There are also people who are fun to play with. The mute button is your ultimate power to select them.

And please do your duty to the community by having your reports always on cooldown. Makes you feel better xD

Presenting:

SWIX'S BIG GUIDE TO ENJOYING DOTA2!

wow

1) Realize that most people are ****s!
Ignore these idiots - they are beneath you. Mute those who can't shut up their ****ness.

2) Don't be a **** yourself!
Probably most important of all: Do not complain - encourage your team mates! If they screw up, don't say "****ing idiot", it does not help in any way. Either suggest what they should do or just say "np, we got it" or "dont worry", or nothing! They will be less ****ish, maybe even friendly back, imagine that.

3) Befriend friendly players!
Add them and play with them!

It's really that simple.

EDIT: I wanted to add: I always commend friendly people, and I get a commend myself every third/forth game simply because of this attitude. Don't add to the "toxicity" of the community please; don't be a ****.
This is my signature. This is my dotabuff.
