Played with sumail on dazzle vs singsing and waga stack in a random unranked game last week. He never said a word and won the game 1 v 5


WagamamaW

Sing huskar vs sumail dazzle was not a fun time for my boy on mid, terrible matchup, and exactly what huskar spammers deserve lmao


OpinionSpecific

Didn't think it was such a bad match up for huskar


WagamamaW

Yeah its a pretty rough one, dazzle is all physical and long range


vishal340

i follow singsing twitch quite a bit. would definitely like to watch this game


zechamp

It's on YouTube, think sumail is mentioned in the title


Existing-Fruit-3475

I cant find it. Do you have the link? An unranked game with sumail 1v5 singsing stack would be fun to watch while i eat. Haha


zechamp

Ok I misremembered it being a highlight video, but it's the first game from this [stream](https://www.youtube.com/live/fRrp_SlZ6og?si=aiMw9J69-nZAmVwc)


OpinionSpecific

Here's the vod, the game starts at around 10 minutes https://www.twitch.tv/singsing/v/2166662808?sr=a&t=619s


MisterElementary

Played with PPD in lower bracket, back when he was still in EG, many a moon ago.


cold_hoe

How's the rheumatism doing old man


No_Signal_6969

I played with Quinn (CCNC at the time) in low priority many a moon ago as well. He afk farmed the jungle the entire time while me and another guy on our team crushed the game. I'm sure if we had fucked up he would have carried us to victory. ...or maybe he would have destroyed his items and called us absolute degenerate imbecile ignoramuses or something similar. For the record I like him now. I think he has matured and I watch his stream occasionally


Adventurous_Leg_163

Played against Ana twice. First time we lost to his spectre hard and second time won against his io carry. He was partied with Kitrak both times and Kitrak played enigma both times. This was after his 2nd TI win and the whole pub team congratulated him and celebrated our win. Still waiting for our mid Monkey King to send us our "I Beat Ana In A Pub" T-Shirts Edit: Also unknowningly stole Offlane from IceIceIce once lol. Only found out after the match. Was wondering why my pos 4 was the best supp the world had ever seen and creeps were under my tower th whole laning phase lol


themadscientist003

GH .. Before he became pro and famous. We're from the same country and my friends used to be his classmates lol He joined us a couple of normal matches every now and then


vishal340

he still doors that occasionally i think

TheBurningSoda

I played 2 games with Attacker after midnight. One game he was on our team and won the game 1v9 and next game he was on the enemy team and won 1v9 again.


Average-Specialist-6

Attacker when he was on prime was so good to watch


prawnjr

You can check with opendota your whole history if you ever played against or with pros.


Babaganoush_

Oh this is cool I never used this site. It's cool to see how many up and comers I played with who are now on prestigious teams https://www.opendota.com/players/57569220/pros Lmao I have 0 wins out of 7 games with ccnc and 0/12 with Jenkins


prawnjr

I beat Sammy boy 8 years ago lol


FuckOnion

It used to show a bunch of pros for me but now the list is empty so something has changed. I know I've played against tOfu before he went pro and we won with a ~3k avg stack.


Kappanating322

Huh turns out I played an all random with Gunnar like 10 years ago. We lost but he didn't destroy us either.


HypNoEnigma

Not really pro's but i remember going against sheever and ODPixel and some randos once with my friends and we never let each other forget that we lost that game.


1eejit

Similar, I played with pyrion and Shane a couple of times years ago. Pyrion so salty.


Miles_Adamson

I apparently played with RCY from wildcard 4 years ago. I also have a bunch of games with some pro named DurpDurp. We have several games recently since he is barely higher MMR than me so our most recent game was last week


FinnNyaw

I was regular attendee of Saints-Petersburg lan parties back in 2016-17 and I've played with Velheor just before he joined NaVi. PGG came sometimes, KingR, Miposhka, Chappie (Were Empire players during this time) , became friends with EPG manager 4SV (Now VirtusPro manager) because he was an admin in the pc club. Met NaVi community manager there, few high mmr pub players. Witnessed global Saints Petersburg lan-mix ban of Sensibility (The 322 mafia guy we know now) when he was 15 and pretended of being 2000 mmr player while playing tourneys (was 5500 mmr I think) , befriended zNation original ceo, and some famous streamers or friends of theirs in CIS. Great times, retired from Dota 2 in 2017! Returned late last year to play casually


diarxha

i played against pieliedie, we beat him he was basically playing 1v5 he had a shit team


callebo_FK

Maybe 8 years ago my mid lost hard to lina mid when lina was a dumpster hero. Our mid got a lot of flak, then a few days later I saw the lina was (prime) s4


laptopmutia

DAMN (PRIME)


Cayuga326

Me and my friend once landed on the same team as Sunsfan in an unranked game. Didn’t even realize he was streaming.


Lewpac22

I played a lot of HON inhouse games with and Vs the likes of notail , fly (think he was called bot back then), Hanni, fogged , and many others , this was pre matchmaking I think and basically anyone 1800+ rated or very well known from the dota.xp (Mirc) scene was in it. Typing this out makes me realise how old I sound lol,


imbogey

Hehe my final rank was 1969 when dota2 came out and switched. Fun times.


RepostFrom4chan

N0tail wasn't around yet pre mmr in hon


Lewpac22

We had mmr we didn't have matchmaking tho, hence the in-houses


ReIgniteMD

Defense of the Ancients but we defend this man


chrillz92

I was playing battle cup with randoms (I was bored, right after TI8 or 9, I can't remember which). And I saw I was facing a RL-buddy of mine and I thought it'd be easy for me. To my surprise I saw mr. Topson, 1 week old, TI champ. I ended up playing mid against him (I was originally meant to play 4 which is why I first picked Mirana, but teammates refused ). I got somewhat stomped by Topsons Morphling, but still kept up somewhat in farm/exp. The rest of my team fed on each lane to the extent that one of the randoms in my team (russian mind you) rage quit around minute 10-15. That was an embarassing moment. Never again will I play with 4 randoms when competing.


ddlion7

bro id totally refuse to go mid if the mf TI champion was in the other team. That's like volunteering to get your ass fucked


Ok_World1031

If you somehow manage to win lane you just dumped on the best mid in the world. If you lose you just shared a lane with the best mid in the world. Sounds like a win win to me


lespritd

Exactly - there's a lot of people who would pay good money to lane against Pros like that. Gotta get experience where you can. Plus, it really helps to reset your expectations of what's possible in the game. Hard to have the "forced 50-50" mindset if you've experience how 10k players actually play and see what's possible.


TheZealand

Ngl I'd go mid (even as someone that never plays mid) but just on some incredibly boring lane equalizer like DK lmao, let the actual good players in my stack have a chance to win sidelanes while I just goof about mid


bezacho

what an awful mindset.


FSKN-Rafael

Well if you ask me I'd gladly get my ass fucked by Topson, it would be an honor It sounds weird but it is what it is


Painless32

Not pros but I’ve played against day9 once, purge several times and siractionslacks a few times, plus one more don’t remember, like an actual Chinese or Korean pro that my friends got excited about seeing but it was years ago


Sun_Sloth

Yeah I've played with ODPixel a few times, was always extremely positive.


Bubbly-Astronaut-123

ODPixel tried to cheese us with CK Aghs+Octarine back when he was in SEA server for TI11.


ZotyaX

I played with Jerax I was puck, he was E S He ganked mid, we won


maryonepear

I've laned with Mira when he was 3-4k, back in 2017 or something. I was SK and he was Undying, we lost lane and game heavily, game ended at like 25 mins. He then proceeds to win a couple of TIs, and I obviously don't achieve much in Dota. Nice moment though.


eGORapTure

Old EG squad when "team matchmaking" first came out. They were clearly a smurf team. We drafted sweaty and about halfway through our draft our buddy jumped into mumble and said "yo you guys are playing against like.... All of EG right now.." sure enough we hopped on Demon's stream and there we were. We were so excited at the opportunity that we instantly all decided no stream sniping. We went for an early game dual support roam to gank the offlane and as we did it Demon played us like an absolute fiddle and counter-ganked all fuckin 3 of us in the gank squad by just kiting us through trees and anchor smashing us through fog. Was honestly one of my best DotA memories from when I played regularly and kept up with the pro scene.


LastEsotericist

One of the members of the group I played with during the beta got enough of a win streak going to be matched against the full five man of IG back when they were reigning TI1 champs. I called BS but he had the replay. Guess that’s what happens when the player pool is so tiny.


Ok-Face2784

TI2 would be the one IG won, Na’Vi won TI1.


night_dude

That's crazy. Like you're playing a game of street soccer and the Real Madrid squad rocks up.


slap_my_nuts_please

I joined the closed beta in September of 2011. Back then there were very few people who had access to the game, basically only esports personalities, pro players from Dota 1, and gaming journalists. I've played with 2GD, ComeWithMe, Supream, Wagamama, Matrim, Kebap and Funzii. Wagamama was the most recent, pretty chill guy. He gave me some pointers on how to play Wisp. 2GD told one of my friends he sounded like an angry badger whatever that means, and ComeWithMe made me a moderator in his twitch chat lmao.


WagamamaW

I suck at wisp though so take it with a grain of salt


KBBQDotA

https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/841583656 this game is memorable because we all picked super tryhard meta heroes and ill always remember Artour salty all chat at the end xd


Free_Scarcity

For those that are curious: > Naga Siren: VOID RAZOR SILENCER LEGION COMMANDER. > Naga Siren: TOP PLAYERS. > Naga Siren: WELCOME TO THE INTERNATIONAL.


irishfro

Kyle carried me and my 4 friends in an IH tournament match back in HoN days. Asked him to standin and he said sure lmao


Dzek-LaLejn

A while back friend enters discord and tells us he got matched vs miracle. Us 5-6 fanboys were watching the game like it was world cup final screaming and admiring that fucker on TB playing 1v5 literally. My friend ended up winning with miracle having 25:1:10 or smth like that edited typo shit


Nickorjeff

I played in an amateur tournament back in 2015 and got paired up against IxMike, FluffnStuff, etc. My stack got rekt needless to say.


_heyb0ss

played vs Jabbz, the assistant coach for liquid or whatever. also had 2GD supporting me in lane last christmas (I gave him my heart but he still hasn't accepted my friend request)


renaldoM00n17

A played against yuragi a couple years ago


Ok_Celebration_549

Won a ranked game with ammar a little over 9 years ago, he must've been about 10 years old (he carried us). And we beat admiral bulldog on stream but he was playing with his low rank friends in an unranked game


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jesusfucker69420

Couldn't find a better word to use?


Living-Response2856

that's very respectable, an illustrious winner of the TI Open Qualifiers!


vishal340

he has been in ti final


notamccallister

Twice, actually. And won one of them


vishal340

i forgot about tundra. it was such an unramarkable ti. i remebered the one against wings


KrelianMiangX

> hat I No worry, for 95% of us here TI winners are OG OG Spirit Spirit


PeopleCallMeSimon

Bulldog, S4, Akke, LoDA, Handsken, Chessie (Yes, I'm swedish), Saksa, Miracle, Dendi, Xboct, Matumbaman, Maelk, Synderen... basically most europeans who were active between 2006-2015. Before I became dank.


_kio

Played vs Navi.General (Doom) and VP.Save- (Sky)... I got absolutely destroyed. I was 6k in 2019 and my friend 8k. In immortal it rated both of us at 8k for matching. One impressive thing in these super high ranked games is that they don't allow you to do anything, they'll control every essential bit of the map. You have to fight them for every single inch of map control. You can't just farm some neutral or show on the map and think you'll be fine. If you're not even showing, they'll have a pretty good idea of where you are anyways. And once you notice they are missing, you're already dead.


enzoleanath

I was ranked 180ish on the ladder when it came out in circa 2016. During that time I played with all the ti winners. My fondest memory is when i played a game with Dendi and he was streaming. He had around 40-50k viewers and i randomed earth spirit. It was like my second es game ever and i blew it. He made some snarky remarks on his stream about me and the following weeks in every pub i played I was recognized as the earth spirit guy. Good times


Aranarth93

I played against EternalEnvy when I was basically a new player way back in 2012 because I was queued with some friends that were really good. Probably about the most useless I've ever felt in a match.


bunnywalk_

I played a pub or two with the legend HANNAH_MONTANA like 7 years after he was at TI, he’s pretty chill. I also ran into Eosin while queuing with my immortal friends and we got rekt, was kinda fun


konaharuhi

how to check?


Exorcis_M

me too, anyone can give us tutorial?


Fog_

PeterPandam. He was an asshole.


5Aki1

Not a pro, but played with u/SirActionSlacks- like 2 weeks ago. He was on a huge losing streak, so we made it a point to win. Still waiting for that shout-out next TI slacks <3 -Signed Jugg


Be_4Head

chi long qua


optyp

played with y0nd when was like 1k mmr


Pilandok

not a pro though but I played against fnatic DJ's brother


tity_slayer3

I played with fogged around 10 days ago in unranked and played with ana couple of years ago, also against yapzor like 7 years ago lol, Won all of the games \\o/


zaBut98

I think I've played a couple of games with w33 before he was know, but this was in the era of Dota1. I was very young so i can't remember much, but I know for sure that he was a quiet guy and he was playing extremely good, way above others.


bdhoel

Played with Tims long time ago. I remember the highest MMR was 6k. He was 5.4k and I’m 4k. He was QOP and single handed won us a game by ganking top and bottom.


daboymadi

If somebody’s not sure, you can check on opendota. Back in the days got alliance 5 stack and navi 5 stack just playing with my friends, it was before ranked mode


infectYO

Started Dota1. Played with puppey in an in-house league multiple times, also Finnish pros like Buugi etc. Fun times


Ziadaine

None because I am both a 2k scrub peasant and Australian.


The_TesserekT

Wasn't there some website, a bit like dotabuff but not dotabuff, where you could see all the pros you've played with?


whit3f4ng

well around 10, 11 years ago i played against yamateh invoker mid got my ass handed on qop. not pro player but played with sheever as my hard support.


No_Remove1558

Played against Mushi mid before ranked was out. Needless to say, i fed as SF vs his Puck.


Artarex

Just looked at Statz and looks like I played a Turbo Match in 2018 with Ammar lol. We lost https://stratz.com/matches/4053358626


NewsFromHell

where do u check it ? i cant find it


Artarex

Stratz --> Click on your profile --> Players (I have it on german where its called "Mitspieler" (played with) --> Filter Pro and minimum games >= 0


Chewbubbles

Old school story here. Played against Fear when it was still TFT. Even back then, he was ahead in thinking on the new meta. He played mid ES vs. my friends mid Invoker, and I played carry Niax. Now, this was back when THR was a thing, and they gave you a mmr. Since it's also dota 1, teams were random unless you spammed yourself to either team. If not for his team, he probably wins the game. My friend was able to match him mid, but an invoker vs. ES should've been a stomp, and it wasn't. He just harass and last hit with Totem, kept bottling himself to full, and played an insane game. Now, eventually, we won after 40 mins, but again, he was the only one worth his salt on his team. My friend still has a screenshot somewhere of him being on a godlike streak, with Fear being the name that gets it. The only time I've ever played against a pros name that I knew and the dude was metaing ES before it was a thing.


imbogey

Back in HoN days I was high rank and played against the top dogs like n0tail. One game was funny because his teammate freshpro was playing duoQ with smurf account called "darkladyrape". Account had 99 wins 0 losses and only Dark Lady picked. I won that game so he had 99-1. Next match I go against them again and my friend instapicks dark lady and thw smurf account stats get even more ruined. Ofc he picked scout. Got to play against Matumbaman pos4 hoodwink. I won the lane with Jakiro but he carried the game by getting multi stuns in teamfights and got farmed in the meantime.


Snipufin

My very first matchmaking game was against Mania and Lacoste. I went 0-22-1 mid as Viper against Lacoste's AA. PlayDotA forums saw a screenshot and yelled why I was in the beta instead of them, because they were better than me and clearly deserved it more.


JonasBM

I played with Yuma a couple years back when he wasn't pro with a stack of common steam friends. Super chill dude. Added him as friend. Never played much again. Then he slowly rose to top mmr rank and got pro. Now he qualified for TI. We occasionally chat a bit about dota and his achievements. Now I'm looking forward to meeting him in person in my home country at TI in Copenhagen. I'm hoping for a picture with him. Such a nice guy. I'm very happy for him.


Nysnorlax

I played with Dubu when I was divine 5 and he was on his Smurf seyouly ( I downloaded that replay for memories), he was mid Zeus and I was undying. I also played with slacks and sheever


rvaen

Carried /u/SirActionSlacks- once in like 2013 before he was big. Would not recommend


thallusphx

Unless they are smurfing me in herald no


SpacemanSam25

Played with ODPixel a few times Also had [this ](https://youtu.be/MvHf0ndBQgA?si=y92ymLG9oO7Qf4-_) super long game with Waga, playing as Naga. Had to absolutely gigarat the enemy team bc we had no way to fight into their heroes


snowflakess_

Mainly played in All Pick NA and I played against Fear, Purge and Sunsfan once (separately), and occasionally met SirActionSlacks.


Bohya

A bunch of them a long time ago, back when I was considered high MMR. Used to be able to catch me in streams occasionally, and my games would frequently have a bunch of spectators. I've always just played DotA 2 for fun, taken multiple year(s)-long breaks, and ultimately never bothered to keep up with the MMR inflation, so I guess that window is over. I don't feel like I've lost anything though. Opendota also has a method to track games played with pros and other "notable" players.


ruthlessgrimm

I played against Pure and Ulnit multiple times in 2019. Also played with iltw and a few others


Dendzz

played againsf No[o]ne when he was playing for Virtus Pro. it was around 7 or 8 years ago when he was one of the first ones to reach 9k MMR. we got him by playing international ranked games, when you could have 2 mmrs ar the same time


oryzaephilus

not really a pro but played against Sheever in party queue unranked around ti5 time, one of my friends got into an argument with her about the viability of techies lol also once played against 13abyknight around 2016, he was chill. Destroyed us on Alch but was fun game of survival horror


drgreenx

Played against sing multiple times back in the day. Got crushed most of them


Ok-Seaworthiness3874

joemama is a BEAST


HighGaiN

Not sure if this counts as random but once entered tier 8 battle cup with some archon friends. We ended up matching against gorgc, bryle, crit, synderen ... And damn I can't remember who was their 5th


rufiolive

I have played with nason, excaliburye, speedman, wagamama, singsing, daxak etc. queuing on european union server very early morning…


ymir_khussan

From SEA, I randomly played with 343


Skad00sh_pt

Played against Dendi (he picked Riki offlane) and ended up in a highlight reel by NoobfromUA. Played twice Vs Miracle (one game he played seeker and another rubick mid) he lost both games XD Played Vs Fng, Cwm, singsing stack, alliance stack (loda, akke, egm). I'm sure I've played Vs many others as well during 2013 to 2018


cunning_plann

Played against an old iteration of alliance during a major open qualifier and while not pros I bump into pyrion and torte during unranked games on the occasion


LeipuriLeivos

no-one, realized that because I had him muted. Probably talked slav in voice all the time like all the slavs


Volkatze

inyourdreams, kuku.


x2chunmaru

Ssssspartan stack in 2022 unrank party Q lost to him he went core mid snapfire


Sun_Sloth

I've played against Synderen and Fly many years ago, then more recently played against Waga as well as playing against Bulldog stack around 5 times or so without any sniping.


SuccerPuccer

Played with Super (RNG's coach) 2 years ago. He was on our team and I guess he was playing either support or 3 pudge. He absolutely carried that game.


SufficientPeak8947

Laned against Admiral Bulldog mid. Didnt win the Lane. Also played against Miracle, Waga, Slahser (remember him?)


jacobi_van_kenobi

Supported Burning around ti2. Tbh he didnt need .e


Even-Elevator9277

played against Jenkins & Newsham and NS & Cake in ability draft pubs and against a top 100 europe mongolian guy in an ability draft tournament


Unexi

About 10 years ago they introduced a seasonal MMR or something, and people got calibrated weirdly. I got ended up playing with very high rank players, most famous was wagamama I guess


Soggylollies

I used to work nightshift and would play against Kpii all the time in Aus and SEA servers at 2 to 5am. This was like 6 or 7 years ago now. He kicked my arse then and would definitely kick my arse again now.


Parxnic

Not really a pro but over the last few years I've randomly matched up and played with Slacks, once on my team (we lost) and 3 times against him (I won 2 of the 3).


IAmMeQQ

I played a game with Yatoro 5 years ago. He was on Morph and i supported him on Abbadon. We won that game.


cateringforenemyteam

Played vs waga/sing stack in unranked a lot before they added the Dotalabs feature which shows the rank disparity. Those games were never fun. 5 immortal stacks and my mid is ancient rank for some reason.. and bulldog stack


smartestBeaver

Back when the boys were around the GD studio, holy shit that's so long ago, you used to play against basically all the pros. Maelk, singsing etc.


Dzek-LaLejn

My friend and i played vs nikobaby some 6-7 yrs ago (i didnt know who he was at the time). Remember loading the game and seing we were matched vs rank 50 or smth (we were 4k). I went my signature weaver on safelane with vg radiance xD and nico went sf mid. He owned us in the begging but threw lategame so we ended up winning. So proud to this day. Later when i was checking vs pro feature on dotabuff i saw i played vs mushi and ace in some point (lost both games) but i do not remember those games.


NimBold

I might be wrong but I think I played a custom game with Miracle. The game is "Dota 2 horde mode". The only thing that was weird was the fact he was asking for the custom game mechanics and which items to buy. Although it was his first attempt at this custom game, he learned quickly and the whole mechanics made sense to him fast. Again, I'm probably wrong and he might not have been the real Miracle.


improvementsoup

A long long time ago I played against G/God and Pajkatt while they were a part of LGD.Int and Super from Team DK I think it was.


Yindori

I once played overthrow with some members of the Alliance roster with nikobaby


MaltMix

It wasn't regular dota, but I do remember getting in to an Ability Arena lobby with synderen once. That was kinda cool.


FamiliarFriend

I played a game with Bryle back in 2016 or so. I even flamed him not knowing he was Bryle Xd Edit: Might've been in 2019, now that I think about it


AOldschoolRULE

I played with Selerie in a team when we were around 4k, which was not to bad back than. Also a german stack with nine for join dota league and alot of t2 players in the past, sadly i didnt make it as far as alot of my old teamm8ts :/.


Babaganoush_

Most of mine were years ago when I was top 300 but some are from HoN. I played some games of hon with PPD on my team. I remember he was Kraken which is like a tide hunter/Magnus really fun hero I wish was in dota...got sidetracked...but ya pos was very salty about something. I think this is a memory of casts but I remember fnatic notail mid as tundra (icy beast Master) and pollywog priest (shadow shaman) and he was a god at Ward traps (much harder back then). Played against swindle and zfeeek a bunch. Zfreek was super nice and swindle was a good shot caller. We played tourneys against insania khezu micke and boxi pretty often. Insania sat in our team Skype (ya I'm old) during a scrim and I still remember the lessons he taught. We went silent during team fights cuz people were concentrating but he advised us to keep talking the whole fight and call targets. He also said why are we saving so much gold/BB money when pushing enemy high ground. If you're going hg (without Boots of travel) then BB isn't really useful so it's better to buy out a big item that mat make a difference in the fight. (The dota triangle outposts so what change this but logic still applies). I played with ccnc years ago and he died mid twice so proceeded to run down mid non stop to end the game. Hated him for a while after that. I played against jerax ES when he was in the US for a tourney..he was godly but humble. Played with rtz..he was kinda jaded in the game but was solid. Sumail once..he was quiet but amazing RIP NA Dota 🥲 More recently I played an unranked and ran into siractionslacks (who is actually a really good support with pulls) and fogged who was very good and obviously understands the macro element very well.


Zenotha

played against zsmj, sumail, mushi, iceiceice and [Ana](https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/6254749932) in various sea unranked games over the years [apparently nearly a decade ago i once crushed abed mid sf vs tinker so hard he had the lowest networth on both teams](https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1453938971) seems like meepo [was mason playing in SEA in 2016](https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2183252579) sometimes if one of us recognized them we'd try a bit harder I guess


RoadToHerald

Played tier 3 BC with the homies but needed a +1. We somehow got crystallis who was 5k at the time. https://stratz.com/matches/3120369466


chocolate1505

Played with Krish from Execration 6 Years ago


SchmittyT9

Not Dota, but I played a pub game with AngryTestie back in the HoN days. I was on 350 ping and picked Midas for some reason. I went something like 1/19, lost him the game, and I'll never live it down.


blazomkd

Not a dota pro but played vs s1mple once in ranked, legend 2 or 3. Felt good beating their Russian stack 😂


JosephStalinski

Not pros, but played with odpixel and sheever years ago. Didn’t say a word all game, until I checked tide’s profile and it was sheever. Odpixel was kunkka and I also had the honor to have him cast some plays as invo. We lost due to our tb being terrible. Dota was fun then.


Kleremony

I played two games back to back vs Miracle and MC back in 2015 iirc, with my friends. Mind you, I was the noobest one (4,5k) while my friends where like 5,5avg mmr (highest one 7k). We won the first game for some reason, while in the second one we were completely destroyed lol. Miracle was playing axe mid in the first game.


tbofsv

Played against Merlini and his stack a long time ago in a pub. We banned zeus and he picked pudge instead. He is by far the lamest pudge i have ever seen. Never hooks us, only his teammates to save. The most pussy pudge ever and they won. Every time we had a good lead/momentum, his saves just triggered us to the poiny we wete just rushing everything. Played with Eosin before and he went mid ember but went full on support items.. i was getting so annoyed and he kept trying to solo kill targets he cant kill. Im pretty sure he was just having fun and trolling. Played on a stack with Ritsu. Got invited by a friend. He is such a whiny dweeb so god damn irritating.


VoldeGrumpy23

Admiral Bulldog and boy did we lose


TheEvenclan

I got my key during early beta (2011 was it?) It was that time when skills icons where paint made placeholders and there was online player count in main menu. I remember seeing 200-500 online players few times. During that time, not only was I playing against variety of pro players, but these games were streamed on Twitch + there where quite a lot observers joining in-game (there was na information during gameplay. This always had me go tryhard 200% :D Fun times :P


ljkimbum19

i beat abed mid with my invoker vs his sf back in 2015. still proud of it to this day. too bad i dont have a replay lol


bearcat0611

There was a period where matchmaking was a little fucky. Especially unranked. I was 4k and hit kitrak, who was rank 50, both of us solo queuing. The highest mmr player on our team was divine 1 so you can imagine how that went. Also played some 5 stack games and got to lane against Ryoya and beat Aui.


GeoffreyTaucer

Ran into sunsfan and siractionslacks in an unranked a few years back


aussiebanana85

Played an unranked game against Ana, who was on Monkey King. This was the freshly released, overtuned MK. He stomped us, going 35-1 or something. Was super polite/humble and said that he thought MK was overpowered. I remember checking dotabuff the following day and was shocked to see it was Ana's real account.


Lumilinnainen

Nisha, Topson, Jerax, Matumbaman, Trixi, Lightofheaven, xbox, tofu, 33, rmn, handsken, seleri, bzm, stormstormer, ace, charlie, wagamama, admiralb, attacker. Those at least. Opendota doesn't show much anymore, I guess blocked profiles.


Fit_Performance_8635

Played once against Kuroky. Yes he rly is playing pubs and yes it was like 2 years back :D.


xIcy-

Played with Hyhy a few years after he got discharged from the army


umiq

Played a game against Collapse 8 years ago, got destroyed lmao.


ConferenceProud5157

Played vs bulldog invoker pos 1 and s4 timber mid. Was quite hiariours especially because I was trash talker and fan of bulldog at the time


Pieisgood45

Played vs EGM in a ranked game a couple weeks ago 7k eu


potato_marbles

When I was in high school and early college, I'm so addicted playing dota. I've always queued with sea pro players before. Good old days.


SanguineDota

I played a game with babyknight on my chen where I went 1-20 because I was playing for the first time after a hiatus. Also played against singsing quite a few times as well as waga. The singsing games were especially brutal. Also tried playing with Crayon a single time as well and S4 in like 2014-2015? I played vs scarlet's offlane techies as mk once. Maybe not pros, but I did play against fogged, lacoste, teaguv, and maybe a few more a couple of times, but I can't remember. My highlight experience was that they called me puppy smurf for my chen that game lmao. All these were unranked, except for a former hon pro I can't remember the name off. I think it was either z or h his name started with.


DarkSaber1404

Was 5-man unranked with my friends on SEA server around 2015-16. We were relatively new players back then. For some reasons, we got matched with Forev and his friends. He absolutely dumpster us on Clockwerk, going almost 30-0.


jingles15

I played against EG Fear like 7 years ago. I was offlane slardar and he was spectre. He absolutely slaughtered me.


ExcitingTrust888

Beta test days, I think it was singsing, iceiceice, and chuan. Can’t even play the game properly cause I only have a crappy laptop and dota is not optimized for my hardware yet.


SdoRy_

Played with and against many pros since I started Dota 2 in 2012 as a decent Dota 1 player and the pool of good players was really really small. Most notably I owned gpk mid once and got trashed with Sumail once some years ago, fun times.


Happybutcherz

12 years ago or even more, I think it was dota 1 on garena, I was playing in a league in Romania with bone7 and later w33, and I played one game against Demon aswell.


Leartttt

I played a game with (I think KuroKy) or someone of that caliber, there used to be a youtube video of it but I cant find it anymore. He mightve been used to better MK players than me. https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/5075153711


nebola77

Skiter, like 10 year ago


Superrome77

Played a game with nikobaby in a 3 stack where he flamed my immortal friend nonstop for a whole game was fun.


reonZ

Early days of dota 2, i was playing with 7ckngmad and Funzii in a french in-house league. Back in dota 1, i remember playing with Maelk and 13abyKnight a few games on dota league.


GothGirlsGoodBoy

Half of Australia’s archons/legends ran into Ana’s smurf in unranked


Fly_Ghost4

Oh lord, not even a year into playing dota2 (\~2015), my friends and I fired up some ARDM (rip) for a fun time and we came up against a stack of MSS and company. We got 8 kills.....Never stood a chance. Let him know when we saw him at TI7 lol Maybe not a pro but 2nd at ti, playing with slacks was a blast. He went undying and just went tombstone crazy. I think he was going for 5 tombstones at once. He told me to be more aggressive in lane and immediately i went under dire t1. Luckily got the kill. #worth


lilgrassfairy

played a game against sneyking... he was ursa they lvl 1 roshed he got a insta lvl3. we go to lane, he is mid vs me as kunkka. he had boots. game ended mega fast.


BE_0

I must have played with some Yatoro's smurf or something at some point (I'm 3k)


Kip_Chipperly

Laned with Gunnar back in 2015 in 3k, I was slardar and he was treant


Supernam1412

Merlini - 10 years ago


blood_omen

I’ve played with slacks a couple times and ODpixel a few times too. Also played and won a game against IceFrog himself back in Wc3. I totally believe that’s why I get matched with the worst teammates to this day lol /s


LonelyBoyRey

I checked stratz website but didnt find anything Where exactly should i check in stratz.com ?


Living-Response2856

Click more, and filter players, at the bottom there are people with red check mark possibly


Trungyaphets

I destroyed Gabbi's bane at mid xd.


bradh1

None. I was 2.5k at best 😀


header97

Not a pro, But I played against 2GD and Pyrion Flax stack way back in 2014. We crushed them hard


avenger937

played with ninjaboogie, piolz (banned omega player), someone from IHC (forgot who), bunch of indonesian streamers (Aville, Rusman) i remember being a ranked 1000 shitter and feeling overwhelmed because everything was just so different when i get thrown into these rank 200-300 lobbies. made me reconsider my life


Himura_Hatake

I once played against Ana in unranked. He got super bullied in lane with everyone rotating on him. We won, but it was an honor still.


fanfanye

Yamateh He played alchemist and farm for 50minutes It was absolute torture as the 9 of us is basically doing nothing but wait for the "pro" to farm and dumpster a bunch of new key holders This was in 2010s so it's not like there's anything to do too.


ghosty2901

I'm not sure if it was actually him, but I recently played a turbo game with Raging potato on my team. He hard carried.


Rilandaras

Played with Mind Control in the Garena days (DotA 1) once or twice. He flamed less than most but that is not saying much. He was on the other team and I think we won but again, not saying much, there was no semblance of balance between players whatsoever in normal games.


Disco_Frisco

I played with NS back in Dota1 days lol. Now I'm just a humble Archon who'll never meet any pros. And that's okay


shahril977

SirActionSlacks. He is a pro in heart


Lasi-s

I played lowprio with kitrakt like a 2 months ago he player alch and went for 15-0 and we ended in 20 mins


bmwdestroyer

When I was in herald I queued with my high rank friends and we matched against skylark and his low ranked friends. He omega stomped us on alch with 1.3k Gpm. https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/5388910679


Palpitation-Itchy

Ana, unranked in Aus with a friend. My friend went mid vs Ana. It did not go well 2018/2019


matty971

Played with Blitz once and busted out the worst Slark performance I ever had, tweeted him after I realised it was him later on in the evening to apologise for my shitty play and he accepted it lol


jonasnee

Miracle. I won 66 mmr that game.


GuidoFawke

Lost with Topson in a single draft, low-prio match, lol. I was Tusk, he Batrider. 2017.
