Have yet to have a game where there wasn't mass rage quits from the other team pre 10 minutes due to none of them playing support.

Try a different server. I often find that Europe South is more pleasant then most servers. people know what they are doing and most speak English. (spooky)

Incredible! You're sure this was DotA?

I had that yesterday as well! I was Timbersaw and called Solo offlane. But a Silencer came anyway. Luckily when i asked him to focus on harass he did! We got a couple of lane kills and i got a nice quick Bloodstone. We also had an Outworld Devourer, who at the start of the game set alarm bells of by asking who was mid... But, he turned out to be brilliant! Several clutch Astral Imprisonment's in teamfights to save an ally, dropping the ulti at the perfect time, great rotations from mid (leading to a double kill and a tower first time around). Then when lanes were done (and fully won) we just pushed as a 5 (Timber, Silencer, OD, Pugna and Lich vs a team with Drow and Jugger. We couldn't out lategame them!) and started taking objectives. It was a thing of beauty.
The Silencer with his none-greed in lane (a rare thing), the OD being surprisingly good, the Lich bombs were always well dropped, and the Pugna being a push machine. No feederino's, no diving, no arguing. It just worked. It renewed my faith in the game.
At the end there was mass high fives and we all congratulated each other. http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1222777509

The next game i was forced into safelane as Axe. I was solo against Windranger. We had a jungle Lifestealer who was just a toxic arse. WHAT WAS Battle Hunger GOING TO DO?!?!? Reminded me what DotA really is.

Hmm I think its not only your team that has to be competent to make a fun game, but rather the balance of both teams. That means that 10 people need to be relatively close in skill and balance each others weaknes out.

I feel like I have more than 50% of games with good teammates (doesnt equal winning the game)and IMO this is quite a high chance. I dont have to complain about the Players. Most of the times you can pick according to your teams needs or you can alter your build so it fits in the team. (is safelane axe vs wr so bad? you wont kill her but she shouldnt be able to kill u either)

In one game I was forced to solo axe/dark seer in the safelane with Invoker. They owned me so hard then my team won the game.

TL/DR: If the Matchmaking system gives you Lemons, dont Scream at them and flame them. Lemons are valuable sources of Vitamin C
