From my low skill bracket, Pinoys have been more willing to communicate and understand the game better, which automatically sets them ahead of most other groups for me. Americans often don't take the game very seriously and are far more toxic than any other group. Maybe I just have higher expectations of people from my own country, but Americans are some of the worst players, both in my bracket and the professional scene.

Europoor here.

I often play on US East because it gets me away from all of the Russians and non-English speakers. People communicate more, play better and actually have mics. The one time I played with a team full of GoHomes they spammed the chat with "GIRL POWER", yelled into microphones to show everyone just how feminine they were… and all finished somewhere around the 26:2:10 mark. Never ended up with Chinks, Pinoys or Peruvians and I'm somewhat sure that at least 90% of EU players are deaf, blind and/or mentally disabled.

I think people are often under the illusion that it's possible to get an English speaking team in EU west.

I played with a pinoy today who tried getting one of the runes at the start of the game despite there being 4 enemy heroes surrounding it.

That happens to me so often, I didn't even think it was worth mentioning.
