idk how many here actually have legit fun while playing dota most of the time? I don't get that feeling unless it's one of those back and forward 50+ games or in scrims/tournament games.

Most win/lose games you kinda know if you're gonna win or not for a while etc so it's pretty boring cuz it's just another game of doto two.

i enjoy winning
the part where dota is fun is gone for 3000 hours now

oh and 5man stacking with friends is also fun. which might be a reason why i have 4,5k party mmr

"Enjoy playing Dota" usually equates to things like "hitting blind Pudge hooks" for me. All comeback games are pretty fun and you can do silly shit in won games to maximize fun.

yeah dota can be a lot of fun, just not when you're trying to gain solo mmr, which is what we've all been brainwashed into thinking we need to do.

Any US players have a significant discrepancy between USE and USW win rates? Apparently I have a 15% higher win rate on USE in the past 6 months.

It probably depends on a few factors. I think higher level players can win more on USW since there are way less high 5k and 6k players there.

I have a better connection USW than USE, but I always played on the USE bnet server back in wc3 because everyone felt much worse on average. Thinking about doing that again since a 15% difference is ridiculous.

Is that recent or overall? Mine's about 5% higher on USE overall, but 15% in the last 6 months according to dotabuff's scenario stats.
