Once upon a time, I made a blog out of happiness when I reached C on ICCup in BW.

I felt so happy and a feeling of "HELL YEAH, I did it, bitches!" and I looked upward to C+, which I never made, since I started feeling wrist pains last october and I haven't played BW since, which isn't really sad cus I kinda felt like I had reached C+ since I beat C+'s going up to where I was at 4600ish points.

Now it's dota2 that's taken hell and after ranked coming out I've had an odd day of both getting on frontpage in the "view games" tab and I also broke 5k, *hurray*.

The punchline is, that the last 2 games towards 5k I kinda felt like I cheated it, it doesn't leave me adrenaline pumping cus of the struggle which I had when I reached C in BW.

And no, I didn't play terrorblade either
+ Show Spoiler +
But I got carried by one or two


And while that kinda leaves it outta the scope of exciting, the game that took me over 5k was a game where:
- Our invoker made their zeus ragequit
- We had Terrorblade
- We had clockwerk (me) + naix infest bomb
- I was lagging during early game, probally due to my siblings watching netflix.

That kinda does take the steam offa it, doesn't it? >.>

For what I hoped coulda been a bragpost where I was awesomely happy and fistpumpingly adrenalinely jumping into the next game but instead it's just kinda like when you got a birthday present you kinda didn't want and didn't really need and you knew you were getting it.

But yay, I'm there and next goal is to breach the leaderboard (Yeah right, Iplay, like you'll do that, you'll loose next match and then drop down to 4.6k and then it's starting over from scratch).

Oh well, proof/brag/thingie in spoiler, thanks for reading me anticlimatic rant

A bounty hunter was sad at me because I allways carried sentries around as a Lion, tryharding equals not being freekills to invis gankers

Ty, no way I'll make it lol, I got 500 rating up there, then again, I doubt the games will be harder from now, all about consistency
