General Discussionhow do i convince these asswipes to play the game and not throw, just...

Offering to commend them if your team wins is great incentive (even though commends don't do anything......)

what works for me is to say: "Shut up and play. We can win, you got dangdang sama on your side. Let's do it boys!"

try it yourself.

get a team

never tried offering a commend

ive tried the shut up and play lol

they only try for a bit and then taper off again if things don't go perfectly

Keep looking stop qqing

stop qqing about me qqing about other people qqing about the draft

play ap?

or just talk as confidently as you can, bullshit abit if you have to - it motivates people and all you lose is your face if your team actually loses the game (and possibly they'll dodge you next time).

Valve should rename dota to defense of the qq

Commend, Comment and Complain.

explain to them that a bad draft isn't always a loss since you're not playing against perfect opponents.
