I was playing the bloodseeker safe lane (it was an all random game) with an earth spirit support, against a Viper/Slardar dual lane. The Night Stalker played extremely well to keep us in the game. We knew that we had to win early to have a chance, and we did try grouping up and pushing, but obviously it wasn't good enough. Late game, their 4 core + AA lineup won.

Any suggestions on how I could have played better that game? I'm looking for criticism on my skill build, itemization, gameplay etc.

There is just one thing that comes in my mind and that is lasthits. You have 150 lasthits in a 47 game as a carry. Compare to luna her 345, she just massivly outfarmed you whole team.

Items are fine,about skills, i would say max Thirst one level in Bloodrage maybe get a second level in it and than max Blood Rite.

But really, if you had farmed more just 100 lasthits more, you could have an extra item and maybe won the game. Also 14 deaths are to much for a carry.

Just trying to help quickly picking up from what Frosto said: what does he mean, that is, what's behind the problems he detected?

1. You need to farm more/better
Why aren't you farming more? I have this problem constantly as well, so I will give you my answer: usually I don't farm as much as I should because I'm techically bad (I miss last hits) and because I tend to want to participate more than I'm supposed to instead of staying away farming. Consider if you're not doing one of these things for instance, and try to change it out a bit. My boyfriend once told me something that has really helped me a long way: look at every single last hit like some precious thing. You know that time you had enough money for Boots so you rushed to the side shop instead of getting that ranged creep? Don't. That other time you got lazy while farming alone in a lane so you automatically hit creeps instead of paying attention to their HP? Don't. You will see your farm rate grow exponentially.

2. You need to die less
Why are you dying? Because you are participating in teamfights when you shouldn't, because you're out of position, because you're always in the front of your team tanking for them? Or maybe because you didn't buy the correct items to face the enemies you needed that game? Whatever the reason is, that's where you will want to work to change.

I think this two general ways of looking at what globally might went wrong will help, and it's really hard to say anything else more in-depth without seeing how the actual game went.

Anyways the first step to getting better is to ask yourself what you might do better and ask for other people's help, so way to go! Keep at it and good luck :)

Yeah.. I had a Viper Slardar dual lane against me.. CSing against that was close to impossible.. Every CS I took involved getting a lot of hate from Viper and possibility of dying if Slardar was close enough to get his stun off..
