Just mute them. Stacking with better people, while will help you to avoid meeting retards who ping you for every mistake THEY made, won't help you improve as much. All it will do is inflate your rank, then when you think that you can finally play solo with decent people, they will start pinging you for mistakes YOU made. Just play solo because that improves your own skill the most. Solo queuing forces you to think and make all the decisions yourself, without other people to guide you, and...

I wouldn't agree with the celeste pick against Alpha, reflex block will be all the Alpha needs to survive the stun, and it's more likely she will do more damage to the Celeste than the other way around. Celeste just isn't a very reliable hero imo, Heliogenesis is a bit too difficult to land to make her damage output reliable. Personally I prefer Skye against Alpha, since there's not much an Alpha can do to a FB Skye once the Alpha uses her spells. Even if she reserves her spells for you, Suri...

I've been spamming this hero in ranked games to a high degree of success, and I really think people should explore him more. Been getting consistently high KDAs as WP Jungler Grumpjaw, even in losing games, and I think it's not too shabby as an aggressive roamer as well. I like how the hero is really tanky, making him a monster to deal with in the early game. Almost every single ranked game I've played with him I'm dominating jungle, cos the hero is quite strong, and also probably most people...

I think good Ardans win games. Good Lyras are not bad also, but I think Lyra is one of those heroes that need a bit more coordination through Skype/Discord to play to her maximum effectiveness.

If I had to choose one, probably Skye. Love the damage potential and mobility, and in general just feels good and uniquely satisfying when you play her well.

Not really, crystal petal makes her munions super tanky and this is in fact one of the counters to skye because she spends at least 1 forward barrage just to clear munions instead of heroes. And petal can always spawn more on demand.

I think it's really because everyone just wants to be the hero with all the kills. But really though roam position is so important in leading the team. Sometimes i just get roamers who are terrible, refusing to take up any aggressive positions, so we constantly have no vision of the enemy, no initiation, really just waiting for them to initiate on us it's terrible. Even though roam is not glamorous, you can really see the roam shine when he plays well.

Dude Kestrel is strong, but definitely wouldn't consider her OP. She's fragile and quite vulnerable early game. Using Glimmershots can be a risk for Kestrel because it limits her mobility while you're spamming it. And please how expensive can detection be? The gold trickle rate in this game is so high, and supports can easily find farm just buy sitting next to a carry/jungler to get their 600 Flare Gun. This isn't Dota 2 man. And yes please get your facts checked while Kestrel does have...

I think we really need a clock ping. Cos right now there's no way to clearly inform my teammates that my key spells are on cooldown. I usually use the yellow/danger ping on myself hoping that they will realize I'm not ready, but more often than not teammates take a fight regardless which usually ends up in defeat. What other useful pings do you guys think we need?

Honestly it's tough to play support when you're not playing with a coordinated team. Big ults are usually wasted because of a lack of communication (eg. I use Flicker ult to save teammate but he fails to notice and continues to fight, breaking invis and wasting my ult and he dies) Also impossible to advise on item choices when you can see your teammates buying wrong things but you have no way to tell them. Just use Skype/Discord and play with friends if you want to have maximum impact as a...
