That being said, if a player does not listen to the team chat, what makes you think that he will listen to item descriptions?
As i said b4. People often don't listen becouse they treat your suggestions/advices like attack. Guy may think "hey, who are you to tell me what should i do". The more noob they are, the most common this situation is.
Look how rare situation is when newbie ask others what to buy, how to play?
I played about 600-700 bt games and i still sometimes ask what would be better. Sugestions are good. The choice is always yours.
Back to the main topic - when they can read those sugestions their pride won't be threatened comparing to situation when somebody else telling them what to do.

Strategies were created over time and caught on simply because they worked well in the past. Trying new things was the only reason these strategies were created in the first place. We share mutual respect for each other skills; however, my perception of an "ideal" frost-robot or titan inventory may be far different than yours.
Ofcourse you are 100% right.
But remember whe are talkin about sugestions for ultra newbies who playes for example 1300 gobo or 1k heli with 3 weapons.
I'm not talking about perfect sets for tanks. I mean only some general suggestions about the tanks.

I do cringe when people don't buy tp on goblin tank, but its their choice on how they play the game not ours. In short suggestions should be limitted to the team chat and personal opinion, if you want to discuss any paticular strategies I would gladly post on the strategy discussions forum.
My choice then was very good. I earned for tp in 2 minutes. If i bought tp instead of poison i would be unable to kill (since all had minimum 7-8k hp) with dps i had.
I trapped myself few times since fast demon is a big recantation hitting mainly in your dps when i bought tp first and was unable to creep or kill.
Lots of ppl are resistant for advices/team spirit, therfore it would be nice to let them learn by their own.
