Ok so after I found out Xyrus was not the greatest mentor ever that would show me pro Legion Commander plays, but just another 2.2k MMR scrub(MMR works), I was really sad. For a long-long minute I stared into the grim sky, and expected new losestreak to come, but occasionally I clicked on my Invenory button, and found 2 Treasure Redemtion Tokens that were given to some player after Battle Point Boosters were removed from the game. The players that lost their Battle Point Boosters were given these tokens to compensate their losses.
As I am not into smurfing, I found these boosters useless and didn't bother using them, so my first reaction was "Well ok, lost useless boosters, got some free chests, ty Valve luv u".
The treasure range was quite big so at first I didn't bother myself with lurkuing the Wiki for their contents and just opened one random chest. Got a nice Spectre set. I don't play her, so I was unimpressed, but that's better than nothing. And then, I decided to explore chests more carefully to get a chance of getting sets for heroes I love. I clicked on a random chest at Wiki, and that was Hero's Heirloom chest. I immediately regret my usage of the first tool, because now I had only 1/7 chance to get that godlike Kunkka set, when otherwise I would have another shot at it if my first attempt failed.
Okay, what has been done can not be undone so let's just open this treasure and get some useless Lone Druid or Sand King sets.
A click...
This face again... what's his name? Quild or something? Whatever.
"Hmm, what we've got here?"
"I dunno you ****** just open this and give me one of these common sets for losers"
"Oh I see"
"What can you see with those tiny eyes I want to tear off your ugly face you idiot?"
"Ah, of course"
"STOP THIS STUPID ******** YOU FIFTH SON OF SOME PUERTO-RICAN ***** WHO DIED FROM AIDS IN AGE OF 23 JUST GIFF ME MY ****ING SET!!!"
And what do I get?
Bestowments of the Divine Anchor
HAHAHAHAHAHA SOME USELESS BOOSTERS I WOULD NEVER EVEN USE FOR THE MOST AWESOME KUNKKA SET EVER MADE GOOD TRADE VOLVO LOVE YOU ALL **********ERS!!!
I am sorry to be racist, but this is a typical russian attitude that I hate. Anyone can have a bad game and you cannot judge someone by one game. Circumstances were apparently unfavorable and it just happened.
I, for one, have 80% winrate with Xyrus and our games were marked as "Very High Skill" on DotaBUFF. Xyrus was our carry, midlaner or offlaner and he would gank very succesfully as Nature's Prophet using verbal communication, precision and calmness. His calls on whether to push or get back were correctly anticipated.

I'm perfectly aware of the fact anybody can have bad days or bad plays, and I'm perfectly aware of Xyrus being much more skilled than me, why did you even take my attacks serious?
I guess I will add some sign of me being ironic to avoid misunderstandings, like that I think:
Oh and BTW,
i was being sarcastic
And yea, you and Kody were.. not racist(why would you even call it racism, we're both white after all), but rather chauvinistic about that. I have played enough games both in Russian and EU West regions to claim that there are about as much russian *******s as there are european, the difference would only be first one are more into swearing, and second are into constant "gg ff report whoever doesn't share my dumb opinion hurr durr". And you know what? I would prefer some Russian(ok, let's say Spanish or whichever nationality you wish) swearing on their language rather than some -moraled self-assured ******* who just keeps harassing his own team for the rest of the game.
Really, it doesn't mean the case is the worst if that's the most screaming one. Unmanerred bydlo is of course easier to blame than just some random *******, but it's not the solution after all. Want an example? Here: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/992779716 . Who was blamed for the loss? Maybe that Tiny who fed intentionally, screwed up my farm and constantly broadcasted his ****ty music in the voice chat? No, it was of course my and Shaman's fault just because we dared to communicate in russian, though we both knew English and could easily communicate with the rest of the team.
That was quite long, but there is really a problem with that. When I visit Dota 2 discussions page in Steam, I am almost guaranteed to find some dumb, uneducated, self-assured ******* with 48% winrate who blames Russians, Pinoys, whoever he wants for the fact he sucks. That's getting me really mad. Would you guys really prefer these whiners to some ill-mannered Russians? Are they really the lesser of two evils?
I can understand your chauvinism to some degree, it's common in almost every modern Eurasian country now, when mongoloid peoples massively populate Europe, but do you really have to bring that **** into a game when Valve gives us that perfect mute button?
Whew, think it's the time I've taken this too serious now. Anyway, I hope you guys got my point.
Btw about set sharing, I think I might just defeat my greed and give that Spectre set away since I got it for free anyway... well, if I won't like the hero(I've never even given her a try), I think, I'll give that to someone, as well as the whole bunch of items for heroes I don't play.
