im curious, most of the 6k 7k people get there by spam games where they pick solo mid/hard carry. So wouldnt a match making system matching them all together results terrible games? So in a sense, matching them with 4k-5k players would actually provide them some support pickers?

Also: who is the highest matchmaking player out there who play support mainly?

2gd is 5.5K i heard

They are pretty much all of them try hard. So when a game hits where those lanes are taken they simply move to another position. Due to being paired with around 5k players they often lose when moved to lesser impact positions due to some lanes just collapsing and not being able to carry the mid game.

You were buying vlads only for solo rosh anyways, now when you can do this with mask it's not too important unless your enemies have high midgame physical damage output like DP.

Vlads still isn't bad, gives some mana regen and all the other stuff. Esp. good when you have another melee core on the team. Wouldn't rush it though, on lane phase -> blink usually for me (into morbid mask into depends on game)
But does it djent?

yes people shouldnt rush vlad/lifesteal first in the first place. a dagger with the same price is so much more powerful regardless you are coming out from jungle or laning ursa. Hitting earthshock on most heroes in the early game (especially pre level 5/6) almost always guarantee a kill, you dont even need any help from support.

I don't know why people like hard-carry. I could never play that shit. 30 minutes of ignoring my teammates (or even 18-20) just to see if my hand of items will pan out. Even worse is when you fuck up your shit (missing void ult or something) and essentially nullify all your hard work.
