Not really, just played a few in the evening. Good to blow off steam, and cheaper than drowning your sorrows at the pub!

I finished watching Clannad and lost 3 games straight, decided it was best to just stop playing for a bit after.

does being at 52% win loss ratio make me trash with around 800-900 games in? (90% of the games are solo queue)

I think no matter how good/bad you are, you will have around 50% win/loss, given a large enough sample, irregardless of your play/skill level, if you solo que.

I think its possible to get somewhat high win rates by solo queuing, I feel like a good death stack or playing with friends is an easy ticket to reach a high percentile also..

I don't care about win rates though, I'm proposing the question to see whether people care.

play dota.

On a serious note there's one thing I'll never understand when it comes to people improving their play regardless of the game (for the most part). A lot of players can sink thousands of hours into the game and still not "get it", in the sense that total amount of time you invest in a game does not always equate to skill.

I know progress is unique to everyone and how one person can become better at learning a game at a faster rate than others.
----
Experience is important, the large majority of active pro players today are easily recognizable as competitive DotA1 pros (even if they're not, they still admitted to playing it) but we see a ton of new faces as well. Players that have experience playing wc3 dota does not necessarily mean they're automatically superior to players that started from DotA 2 even when the experience helps.

There are small nuances to the how DotA2 plays, some interview from pro players even noting how drastic things changed when using the source engine.

I'm pretty sure I've never seen someone who had 60%+ winrate and at least like ~400-500 wins who was terrible.

Well it depends, I think the win rate is actually easy to reach given you have a somewhat reliable death stack that queues consistently.

It means very little unless you analyze it thouroughly by looking what modes you've played, what heroes you've played and with which players you've played with etcetera.
