Wow, that final of ESL Manila was something else, who would have guessed that end result.

Managed to squeeze in another 16 Ranked games this weekend, losing 5, so gained a further 275 MMR.

At this rate the road to 3k is going to take forever :D

Wings surprised everybody, expected more from Empire after beating Secret in both Best out of 3.

On the plus side i am exicited to see Navi at the next Lan Event, think it is ESL one Frankfurt :p
hopefully there are well and truely back :)

Cannot not say it until they win a lan event.

Secret will improve as it was essentially their first time playing together. Hoping for the best.

I've rediscovered the worst part of being a support player, and no, it's not the fact that you poor as **** or that your team doesn't appreciate your warding or selfless acts of throwing yourself at the enemy just so that you can survive. It's that feeling that you get when the enemy carries all have bkbs and your carries feel it's not needed.

The fights breaks out, enemies trigger bkbs repeatedly, your carries run? NO, they keep engaging, over and over again.... STUN,HELP,DO SOMETHING,YOU USELESS ****....the general comments.....while I sit back watching my entire team die. Oh the pings, yes the pings make is even better :)

I know, let me glimmer cape this poor sod, and wait for him to start retreating so that I can force staff him into safety........Wait what is this, he keeps on fighting. STUN STUN DO SOMETHING..... pings frantically.....potato bracket

Story of my life, I no have a "don't save rule" if you are in kark from a dumb situation then I'm not bothering as it usually ends up in 2 deaths instead of 1. 2 v 4/5 is worse than 1 v 4/5. Another recent pet peeve is noob snipers, my god, they have the nicest items but insist on ulting a guy in a team fight when right clicking them would be quicker. Only ult if they run away ffs, even then its better to hit 3/4 guys in a team fight than ult a running support. grrrrrrr.

My best is still when ALL your lanes are pushing in, your entire jungle is free to farm, and completely safe because you have great vision... And one the core decides that it a good idea to go farm the enemy jungle get killed, and then pings and says "We need wards"

It finishes me hey!

Don't get me wrong, I make plenty mistakes every game. Last night I had a piss poor Jug game, and I openly admit that I actually played that game really badly... But when the Jakiro who went 1/13 and rushed first item midas... And I mean first item (No boots, wards, courier. Not even a tango) And only ever does the single pull so the lane is always pushing... And he flames me and says "GG noobs carries" That gets on my tits. Sort your own game out before worrying bout mine...

Annnnnd, end of rant.

I think I have both of you (Purply and Porch) on my friends list now. Think we need to stack soon for some lulz Dota :)

Yarrr, I've specced a few of your games while I wait in queue, can't actually remember any of it now though lol.

I watched one of Deadmanzas games, his support enigma never got them a courier,only after probably 10min did it finally surface.

Was sitting there thinking to myself "Man, deadmanza must be kaking allover them right about now" specially since I remember him pointing out the "no courier" situation once before :D

Yeah man, I see Axe as one of the returning heroes, that pure damage change along with vans and bm changes is going to be something else. Not 100% sure how it will play out though, will give it a bash soon hopefully.
