He gets very "meh" against good gankers that don't get shut down early - spirit breaker, BH, TA, wisp+company, clinkz...

The only way you can get around that is a few assists so you can kickstart your items with bracers or something.

The thing I can't stand is people adding me as friends on Steam just to trade TF2 items, especially since I haven't played it in a couple years.

Last guy that asked me for an item, I told him to wait until the real money AH is implemented and he can buy it from me.

well to be honest i just started playing this greeviling thing a few days ago and the items i would give away cause it means nothing to me. But I guess they may have value to others shrug.

I think most players hover within 5% of 50% W/L ratio.

Also to the dude who posted the losing streak - if you want to win more, random less and pick better heroes that your team composition actually needs. If you are randoming, you probably shouldn't care that much about winning.

Yeah, when 3 people on your team wait until 5s before creeps spawn to actually pick their hero and THEN bitch when you have 4 melee, it's hard. Or when the rest of your team totally ignores what you took... The only "safe" choice is jungling and that shit gets really boring when all the people who play hard lane start bitching they can't lasthit shit pushed into their tower, because the opponents are terribad. I'm all for picking support, but when you pick Kotl to go with your PL and he starts out by maxing doppelwalk, you want to strangle him.

I still have all 12 of those frostivus chests and am around right now. Didn't mean to spam but just wanted to know they still exist for giving away.

Random Draft is a way better mode than All Pick imo. I rarely queue AP anymore unless I'm with a friend who wants to practice a specific hero.

RDs are all fun and games until you get matched with retards who don't understand team composition, which is like every other game and usually you can't even balance it with your own hero choice. Otherwise someone usually gets a mid hero they are good with vs someone who never played mid with that hero and it basically decides the game.

Yes, I have been losing a lot lately, can you tell?

Kotl's probably the strongest lanemate in the game for PL actually.
Yes, if he maxes spirit lance first. Not if he maxes dopplewalk first, then you just have a weak lane with minimal kill potential and weak harass (assuming opponents can dodge illuminate). That was Zaphid's point.
