Sometimes taking one week break from DotA is the best thing. Relax, watch some matches, for example DAC, it's really entertaining.

it kinda helps if you don't play it for 2 days with me.

Tbh I'm kinda in the same boat at the moment, my recent games in the last few weeks have very rarely been enjoyable for various reasons - horrible team mates, niggly hero selections, techies 2.5 hour slugfest etc.

Going with Hades suggestion - taking a break can be the best option, you never have to say never.

Here.. I hope this gives you some respite.. It is annoying when you try and play well, and still lose, but such is the nature of a team based game.. It isn't enough that you play well; your entire team needs to play well together..

We lost, of course..

Been trying other Mobas when I get into bad losing streaks. Always good to get away from the pain.
