that clinkz games are nice, hope we will see him more often now.
Could always queue with some people from Mumble...oh wait.
nobody on mumble wants to queue with me. Probably because I'm too good and I'll bring players into the ultra-high skill bracket and they don't have the proper anal lubrication to help. or they might all just think I'm a dick. Whatever. Even though I had an orange player who threw super hard, my skeleton king performance graph went up half a bar. Tiny victories. I don't need no gaf no how no way.
Its funny you should say this, I was going to post about it, but its only anecdotal.
Basically it appears that performance is also based of how well you perform compared to your team mates.
My friend was playing a game as sand king. Doing ok, actually winning the game. 1 person DCs, the rest of the team ended up leaving because they are idiots.
He preceded to feed the rest of team to the other team for ages. They all died like 30+ times.
His final score was like 2/4 k/d or something.
After the game, his SK perf bar went basically all the way to max.

Hrm, looking at the top played games currently on Steam it appears Valve has let everyone in the beta but me...DOTA 2 is currently #4 most played game lol
Hint ; don't even get the Headdress.
Stout Shield & Quelling Blade on Bear, Healing Potion on Sylla.
That does make a lot more sense than just a Headdress. Where is a list of the item names for editing the item build text files?
That reminds me I need to do this.
you were in a game already iirc. you were playing tide and neki was trying to carry.
So I sd'd Riki and just tore it up. He seems really easy to play compared to most of the support heroes I've tried. Makes me feel good though after a few losses though.

Oh is it like that, not part of this group, even though so many times people on mumble want to queue with me, probably because I'm super. I'm gonna have to be a dick and stop now. I don't need no Dorkimoe no way, Jose. Solo queue here I come.
We killed Sven took that rapier off him and we had another one that Kag got him self and we went for racks, lost game. Saddest game of my life. I DK man up, stun go in, dies. GG.
Last few days I keep going up against people that have between 0 (yes actually 0) and 60 wins. A few have 100+ but not many, most are between the 15-40 range. Anybody else having this? I haven't lost allpick/single draft in days now. And they are all stomps and they ragequit because they have no idea how the game works yet.
It's only been the past few days we have this. I don't mind getting my win/loss ratio evened out but all the leavers is getting a bit annoying.

...you can edit the recommended list in game, you know. Click on the little pencil at the top of the recommended items list.
Matchmaking algorithm is ass
I thought that only let you make it a separate list that is just generic and doesn't stick for that specific hero.

I've only used it for one hero, so that may be true, but it would be pretty dumb if that's how it works.
I just tried it, that's not how it works. I'm thinking of making a seperate build that actually works that way. Editing a recommended build works how you would expect.
It is also likely a bug.
Last few days i've had quitters on either team on almost every game i've been in. It's getting really annoying to basically waste 30mins on a pointless matches constantly. Hopefully Valve implements pretty severe penalty for quitting and give ability for team to forfeit if they want to.

Pretty sure it's a given that you're included. Steve can be included every other day. I queue with you everyday because you never rage.

What can I do now?
Ran into uniQfazer from Empire, big big rage was had every single time he died. Not much has changed from his HoN days it seems!
On another note, I really like support Shadow Demon. Or make that Shadow Demon in general. Soul catcher just blows people up, and there's no satisfaction like mana burning AM with himself

I want to break something right now...stupid losing streak going ..the worst thing is that I feel like I've hit a wall when it comes to my micro...my last hitting skills truly suck as I can't get an over 100 CS...
/argh look for something stupidly fragile to smash...
