Have a big view on the game after the hero selection.
From that, know what is going to play by opponent, calculate the overall win chance in this match by predicting the overall effectiveness of opponent heroes compare to our heroes. Understand own side advantage whether is in early game/mid game or late game.
When picking hero, at least pick a hero that able to counter another opponent hero.

when they lose, most of the time they will say high ping. 100ms to 1000 ms.
High ping still want to play SEA server, they should go back to play china server to have a better ping.

why naga team will dead?
there are several combo can use with naga sleep.
eg. naga sleep, then Treant Protector go in, when naga release back, Treant Protector ulti. This is same with tide and sand king,enigma.
Sang king channel, after finish, naga off the ulti so that enemy start getting wave dmg.
For atropos sleep, ppl no need to hit, just need to use disable or nuker to on that, no easy to escape.
Naga sleep can help own team to flee when lose in teamfight.
Naga the best use when whole team got mic so that everyone can get in correct timing.

yup sometime got bad effect also.
Talk about combo, some heroes suppose can provide a good combo when team together but due to players' "default" action/response, it become bad combo.
eg. windrunner shackle a opponent and focus fire on it, own team shadow demon that stay near automatically will "Disruption" on that opponent.
windrunner shackle a opponent and focus fire on it, bane automatically sleep that opponent.
Another one is when windrunner use silence from orchid item to prevent those hero that got windwalk skill to run away and focus fire on it then suddenly a teammate with cyclop item cast cyclop on it.
Luckily so far I didn't see the situation that after sand king ulti, own team's naga cast ulti too.

warlock although not famous, but winrate quite good. When you get scepter, it give you 2 golem which is very effective.
The fatal bonds the best used with windrunner powershot.
You cast it on unit and hero, then windrunner powershot it. You can see a lot of hp gone.

the windrunner one very good, linken help her a lot but windrunner always very good when 1vs1. With linken, it will be invincible due to prevent 1 magic dmg/effect and immune to physical dmg in 5 sec.
The warlock one also very nice. When you low hp and get fatal bond by it, you no need run already, especially it bond with high hp creature.

you all net graph show many fps?
now my match very delay
ping only 10 ms but animation all slow motion

I play dota so far all ok, just now first match smooth as last time but current match dunno why so lag.
FPS only got 26.
I dunno normally when I smooth got how much.
I not change any setting at all.

har?
net graph show fps 20-30 , ping 40ms 30/s
the last one "30/s" is what? max can reach 30 fps only?
why my fps so low?
I using gtx460

actually I on all the setting and high in graphic.
Just now I try to off some of it, it got increase.
Too bad last time never check what is my fps. Last time quite smooth even all on and high.
Just dunno why today slow motion and I on net_graph then see it is about 15-25 fps only
I think better off something to make it at least 40 fps
dunno off which one better.

I think related to new patch.
http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=54470

I try already, still low fps.

yesterday when play naga, it got so many frame drop, I can't even target opponent when want to use the ensnare.

I play 1 match only, no crash, but animation very delay.
today will try again. Now I have off a lot of graphic setting to improve the fps until they come out new patch.

b4 t his patch, ok one, I put all on and shadow med.
But I never check net graph so dunno what is the fps.
Just after this patch, i found out animation got delay so I on net graph and found out fps is 15-25 only.
I try off a lot of thing, it can reach 60fps.
I using GTX460 1GB ram.
Driver should be 301 something.
Yesterday got new driver but I haven't update yet.
I think my graphic card should not having any problem to run dota 2 with max setting right?

at steam,dota 2, propeties, click set launch option
then put this
-console
so that when you start dota2, it will prompt a console inside, you can off it by pressing "~" key(default)
at there you type in
net_graph 1
under console command prompt
then it will show you fps and ping
today dota got 13.2MB update dunno fix that or not.
My driver is 301.42 (1-9-2012) quite latest.
I not going to 306.23 yet

when opponent got hero that have cleave ability or those hero that can get battle fury, dun get manta for own side. Cleave and battle fury is the counter for those manta/mirror.
From hero selection, your side got early and mid game advantage compare to opponent.
I can't believe opponent not buying gem and still can win this match.
Your side got 3 heroes can invis(skill/item) which is very bad because opponent just need a gem then they can counter your 3 heroes' advantages (skill/item)
TA seldom get manta plus this match got AM which mostly will get battle fury, TA better use deso rather than manta in this match.
Your team got 3 blink and 3 invisible and not lack of disable that why forcing opponent to get bkb for 3 heroes.
Your side should able to win this match in 30-40min but it drag until 1 hours which the advantages of your side is no more when AM grow plus 3 heroes with bkb which make your side disable useless in teamfight.

He may hate Asian style, but currently Asian style is the winner style so he force to follow this style. He like to scream so it is very hard for him to play with those in EU/US region, he had to come here cos our region already very familiar with this attitude.

becos in dota, there are some ppl play for fun, some like to farm a lot and drag into late game and over estimate that his side can win in late game while under estimate that opponent may grow better than them in late game, some play by trying the best to win, some play seriously as in tournament. Different ppl have different aim in the game so when team together it will become like this.

last few day I got 1 match, opponent anti mage drop, we keep pause and wait then continue when reconnect, in the end, he still drop, then after 5 min, the system show that it is safe to leave, then my side's invoker (I think is newbie) he leave that game, I think he though this match will not count(but the message at there only say safe to leave, not say no recorded) The anti mage reconnect back. In the end we 4 vs 5 and lose a match becos of this.
