In the custom game part there is a map where you can practice warding. I think it is just called "neutral spawnboxes" or something like that. It is pretty good to see how to block camps, how to deward them and how to ward in general because you get unlimited wards.

I have been sitting in lobbies practicing warding for hours so it isn't something you learn very quickly. But by sitting in lobbies practicing warding I have found alot of good warding spots that never get dewarded and give insane vision.

I don't know if you make that mistake but a common one that supports in pubs make is placing wards on the same spot over and over again. Like they place an obs on a cliff, it gets dewarded than the support dewards that again and places his ward there again where the enemy support comes to deward and wards what leaves into "the ward war". When a ward get dewarded you can easily place a new one close to the old position but a bit different so it doesn't get dewarded again.
Any man can make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in it.

And still every dota player flames someone else instead of himself.

That's good as always. I just love it when you are freaking out.
I think I will post another game soon and until then I will try to reduce my death time and start "thinking things through" because when you said I was panicking I was sure I was doing the right thing...which is exactly why you are here to help me.

panicking doesnt always mean "OH **** **** **** STUN HEX ANYTHING"... panicking sometimes means taking the easy route or the one thats most obvious but not necessarily right.

information and knowledge about what is around you and what they have, going to have, what they can and will do. knowing this you can make better less panicked choices.

honestly its ur dead time that i think u need to work on. when you could be doing more but your just kinda ... not. i think if you start to do "more" then your gameplay will improve.

Well but I am usually just too ******ed to figure out what I could do. I mean I can try to smoke mid...I already ddi in some games...with mixed succes.
And when I stack I don't get Xp so doesn't my impact decrease?
I know that my carry needs the Xp more but I am just wondering.

Still waiting for your video :C.
Could u just watch the first 10 - 20 minutes of this game? In the end it was pretty much a stomp but we had to work our way towards this stomp.

Hey Smuggels,
I haven't asked you for a while now so I hope it won't bother you too much to take a look at another one of my games. It was a bit into the night and my warding and pulling was off.
If you want to put emphasis on anything then it should probably be warding, where to be aaaaand-you guessed it: death time.

I would be really grateful as your videos tend to help quite a lot.
