I'm sorry it makes you feel that way. Perhaps you would be best served reading something else.


Yes you are right. It would probably be best for you to learn the game instead of pretending to know the game as well.

Watch Bambi and remember the part where the bunny's mom tells him what it up. Take that advice to heart.

We will wait, don't worry.

Even though I think you are as bad as the people the make fun of (because mmr is quite accurate), this was very fun to read. Thank you.

And at least you are aware you are bad, so you should improve quickly!
Another clue to my existence.

A fun read, but as some people here already pointed out, after 2 years of playing, your MMR is an accurate presentation of your skill. That is not to say that you can't improve in the future, if you invest an honest effort. ELO hell is a myth made by people with too big of an ego and too small of math/statistics skill. Also, I play everyday with friends that are around your rating, and me being just 500-700 rating above. The difference in quite noticeable, both in game sense and mehanics. I also played solo queue on their accounts, and was crushing it. Seriously, when playing mid/carry position, just being able to move from 3 creeps per minute to 5 will yield you a significant winrate advantage over time that will move you up in the ranks. I've experienced it myself.

if ur playing just for fun i cant argue with u making fun of ppl and writing blogs like this

if ur playing to improve (and find improving fun) u should really focus on ur own play. u can actually mute everyone at game start and communicate with only pings; it actually wont make a difference in pub dota (and if ur playing at slightly below ur MMR level due to lacking communication it will just force u to compensate with mechanics which are the most important and hardest to train measure of skill)

when u can get 70+ cs in safe lane at 10 min and still find urself at that mmr then maybe elo hell exists
do you have enough resolve, hero of justice?
