This video shows how if you have good team work and take advantage of the other team overextending you as a PuG can beat a 3 person premade of high ranked players!

Sorry didn't watch the replay but I'll take your word for it. Nice job. Compitent teammates who want to win, though they don't take the game too seriously and cry if they lose, really help a lot don't they? This also shows this game is strategic and not just button mashing, although it is partly... what game isn't?

I think everyone knows premades lose to pugs.

All 3 of those players are rather skilled with Bozmo and Chigodigo ranking at around 20-30 overall in the ladder and 70-80% win rate.  I will play a premade if I have those as teammates but generally when I join a room with premades, my teammates are in the 15-30% win rate range and are reg/tb.  I am then called a "pussy" because I want them kicked or change class.

I still think pug vs premade is not fair and more then likely you won't stand a chance if they are using vent.

And here I thought premades were invincible.  :)  Typically in Pre v Pug, Pre should have the advantage, but as you show in your replay, a skilled team of pugs can take down the almighty premade.  Not all pugs or premades are made equally of course.  Its a simple lesson that hopefully most here on the forums get, though - playing together with the same people does not make you a pro.  But it should make you are better team player if you are sticking with the same team.

Anything can happen, doesn't mean it's a good idea to try it. Premades are going to roll the majority of pugs and it generally won't be a fun game.

lol what are you claiming that a team of good players can beat a team of premade good players?

 

The reason that premades win is not that they neccerily comunicate better its that they are sure of the skill level of their teammates, and this time you were lucky and got some good players as teammates.
