    I swear these guys have downs. Shadow blade lifestealer. Maelstrom medusa. Mirana hasn't hit an arrow the entire game, I am not making this up! WTF! I am so confused!

      wow.

      What an amazing post. Surely this time everyone will sympathize with you, and miraculously everyone will be good at dota.

        Oh come on, none of those are that bad. Maelstrom is a good pickup on pretty much any carry right now if you're looking for cheap DPS. Good damage, IAS, and the orb effect is huge for farming and teamfights.

          Maelstorm medusa and shadow blade lifestealer both are good pick -.-
          Well except lifestealer could've went blink dagger, but still viable

            No something is legitimately wrong with ranked. These are the worst players I have had in 6 months. It took me like 9 mins to find this match too.

              you played 1 game.

              Clearly that means you can tell that the new matchmaking algorithm in its entirety is flawed?

              You will be an amazing scientist one day.

                Yea after reading about how this patch broke ranked matchmaking I decided to play a game. Ended up being a game with me at 4950, and an enemy at 5100. Everyone else was 4100. There was one guy who was 3800 mmr playing PL on the opposite team, ended up coming mid with no items because he got raped in the safe lane. This fucker was completely brainless I'm scared to search until they revert the mm algorithm.

                Like holy shit the previous algorithm is now actually good. volvo please.

                  That just means that there are not enough players in queue right now to get you a game with people all your level.

                    nah, my average queue time is 4:30 and everyone is from 4700-5200. I've never ONCE had a game with the mmr gaps like this. I have 3400 games, lmao. valve fucked something up

                        All good points, I think I just find it funny when people say mmr is broken like a gigantic blanket statement. It works fine for probably 95% of players, maybe even 99% of players. And if you were waiting 1 hour or more for a match you'd still whine and say mmr is broken, takes to long to find a match.

                          you lost with wayto on your team?

                          Dire Wolf

                            Well it was working fine, then last night no one was on, ~10 min wait, terrible match.

                            "0-11-3 Omni says all ..." Is inaccurate. My real assist number was more like 13 but you don't get scoreboard credit unless you deal damage to the guy who dies.

                            I overreacted to one match at 2 in the morning after a big patch though. That is all.
