yes

he is also a self evaluated chess grandmaster or something

Said he was a 2k rated Elo chess international GM but when everyone analyzed his games said he is 1.4k at most.

If you can compared this to an MMR in dota, how big of an MMR difference is 1,4k vs 2k in chess

He's ok not anywhere near a master

judging from how my ranked games look, this statement is mostly false.

but maybe there are some 5-6k players that are decent at pressing buttons but make good decisions dunno..haven't experienced that end of the mmr spectrum.

He makes really bad blogs on LD where he claims he is playing fine in very high skill bracket when he's a huge feeder (like 1-24-4 on support) and clearly doesn't belong there. He of course says he is actually 5k and his teammates are bringing him
down when it is pretty apparent he bought an account. He also posts on Reddit saying the same shit basically.

That's not true. I am a master. I have a very low rating because I am prone to let won positions slip out of my grasp on chess.com.


He's 1.4k Elo on chess but the average IM in chess is 2.5k Elo actually.

http://www.dotabuff.com/players/193113856/matches?date=&duration=&faction=&game_mode=&hero=&lobby_type=&page=2&region=&skill_bracket=very_high_skill

this is a very important link if you want to learn about laertes

or are we talking about hamlet

"You might ask how a kotl who has two years of dota experience can go 0 and 11 and look like he has done absolutely nothing on the replay.
You might wonder if medusa was an incredible player for carrying the kotl. In truth, without my dying for him and aggressively taking risks while also stacking the ancients every rotation, the medusa would not have the space to farm like she did. Although my teammates created much space in the mid game, it was my dying for that medusa to a tide hunter in the Laning phase in ADDITION to giving mana, etc as well as risking everything to stack the ancients and baiting the enemy team that was the unsung hero of the game. Because I died 11 times, resources could be committed in an almost imperceptible way towards other activities."

It is either 100% real or some really high level troll that crossed Poe's Law a long time ago. Like Graph-Lord has shit on this guy.

A human needs to play these games for reasons and somehow enjoy playing in them. I would be so embarrassed to be that lion.

Generally in the form of "im drunk AMA"

EG Stream sniping drama because they are logged in as moderators in Dotapit, so clearly that means they were watching the match for reasons. You go reddit. #blessed
