what could I have built/done differently this game? So uh...Just lost to a feedin 3-41 luna in General Discussion

    I took a long break from dota awhile back and I just feel I am still rusty. I was never 'good' but i was never this bad...been on a horde of losing streaks lately. When I played ranked I was mid 3k, but now I feel like I am playing like a 2k (so I guess i belong in this bracket for now) Last game took the cake. So disclaimer yes i know I suck.

    Abba probably was not the pick this game, but I have been wanting to experiment with him as I do not play him often. I marked top support. Bloodseeker and lone druid both jungled (lone druid built old style and did not get dragon lance) So i started building core items (probably the wrong items, which is why I am making this topic)

    Suddenly 3 minutes in their luna starts feeding because slardar was taking last hits. Constantly feeding down mid the whole game.

    So I was just wondering (after everyone rips me apart for beign bad), what hero should I have picked vs lifestealer? I do not play well vs lifestealer, especially on a support role. And he countered most of our team) And also, was this game winnable? what should I have done/built differently? Am i just this bad? Should I install league? I just can't believe this.

    And as horrible as they were, I do not blame my team, i believe this game was easily winnable especially with a feeding luna. I just didn't play right. Maybe I should have abused the fact that she was feeding and sat mid to get kills on her. idk. I am lost and afraid to queue again. Please halp

    edit: i realize now radiance was probably the game losing item choice. I just did not even notice lone had one (was trying to focus on my own gameplay and not our 2 junglers. I just assumed he would build the new way. Idk. I love this game but I feel like I have gotten so bad I can not even play it.

    I want to play ranked again just to play with people that want to win and not just instalock any hero, but I feel I am playing below the skill level of my MMR, so it would be a bad decision

      hmm now that i am not so tilted and can think i realzie naix just countered our whole team, and he got rich from taking all our kill streaks agains the luna. on top of the fact that i picked a 4th melee hero (5th with how lone played), and built bad items. I guess i answered my own question. but yeah any advice or criticism i would take, even if it is harsh. I know I have been feeding a lot lately...like I said I took a long break and am still adjusting.

        Abaddon Could have been successful with a Better Build, Id have Gone Vlads, EchoSabre, Basher, AC/Mjjoliner, BKB, Abyssal. As far as Countering Lifestealer I find that Illusions work great Against Lifestealer Making heroes such as PL, CK, Morphling all very strong vs him. They have great Mobility and Can easily Overwhelm the poor Bastard.

        To your second Post. Yes your Radiance probably threw the game. Huge Amount of money that didn't get much accomplished. LS hates The things. Spell Immunity Piercing ults, Illusions and Burst.

          Thank you very much for the advice. i regretted making the topic right after i posted it and assumed I would just get flamed lol. I appreciate you answering all my questions.

            you think about the lifestealer too much. a quick look at the match summary the zeus and skywrath did most of the damage. your team absolutely needed a pipe there, seeing as you had virtually all the farm to yourself you could have gotten it quite early. with a magic immunity-piericing disable in pudge, you guys could have easily focus on the zeus and the skywrath before killing the ls all raid-boss-esque

            i also just have to say it is extremely shameful to lose to a 3-41 luna

              that game is so what the fuck anyway i dunno what to think. core abaddon, linkens slardar, aghs ls, support (look at those wards) 3-41 luna, druid-centric ld, and core kunkka lul

              evy

                Echo sabre? Really?
                If you got pipe you would probably win the game easily

                  I have to agree it's extremely shameful to lose dota to a 3-41 luna. Slardar and naix is a tough combo, only seeker with agha could have made a difference but still... get wrecked! Xaxa, these are the kind of games that turn dota interesting and everlasting.
