I mean how serious can you be when you aren't going to put down region, experience etc.


And I just want to interject here and mention that OP was the less than 1k MMR guy who bought a 5k account and promptly ran it to the ground, all the while proclaiming that he didn't buy it and that he WAS 5k on /r/Dota2 and on here.

Also lest we forget how he wrote on /r/chess that he was an International Master and had an elo of 1400(?)...

Check his previous blogs.

I feel a little bad bringing all this up, but I don't agree with his previous actions at all so feel it needs to be said.

With positivity in mind, I hope you find a team OP (but please find players at your skill level and quit deluding yourself). Also if you do make a post in the team recruitment thread, work on the specifics I listed in my previous post...

Honestly I've come to see dota differently, it's not really about mmr it's about hard work and synergy(I'm pretty sure I placed too low also). I dunno I can't deny what the op is saying it's just pretty crippling and rather spiteful to post it here.

So if I got it right OP at one point had MMR of 700 until he started buying higher MMR accounts and now he's looking for a team consisting of other special people.

Can this even be real.

Regardless I think if you told us your skill level (MMR to aproximate) as well as your region, and possibly practice schedule it would help you in your search.

Divulging information is just generally helpful.

Checking his post history was mildly amusing, but then it became sad

Wait blacK's getting kicked?

Would love a smoke gank in chess. I moved my piece but you don't know where it went. Your turn LOL.
