here's mine. i had a sad faceless void game last night, pls ignore.

e: out of all of my friends, i have the highest GPM. rice a roni.

Having a higher GPM than your friends probably just means you play core the most when you are stacking with them.


i rotate around the positions frequently unless im tired of playing 6 position support. lately, i have been playing more core though.

e: actually since last summer when i was only playing the 5 role, i realize that i haven't been supporting all that much lately. mostly bc i couldn't cast spells when i broke my wrist XD

it was actually working as intended. i was forcing people to come back to defend base and dodging team fights and farming quite well. my team fed the storm spirit though D:

i posted about it later in the TB forum wondering what else i could do haha

I was joking.

I'm pretty sure 362 is pretty normal. If you have over 400 average GPM you probably play core like 3/4 of the time and if you have over 500 average GPM you're probably some 5-6k pubstomper who's literally only played core on that specific account.

I think it's inaccurate somehow. I play all roles and my all time average GPM is 500 for some reason. GPM/XPM in the last 12 months is 392/470 though so that's more reasonable.

If I ever feel the urge to play a farming carry I just start playing a roguelike. Tome mostly, and I know it's a faux-roguelike but still http://te4.org/ .

Roguelikes let me fulfill the urge to collect random bytes of items and kill imaginary things with them. Also, eventually my character gets killed after I do something stupid like deciding that swimming 3 floors underwater was a good life decision. Or opening a door with no idea what's behind it and getting impaled by skeletons and arrows. Then I have to focus on something else while mourning YASD.

Also, I have no idea why agh's is one of my most commonly purchased items. Or phase - I actually disliked them for like an entire year.

I think it doesn't differentiate between the greeveling and diretide (the originals) and normal matchmaking. It didn't for a while at the time

I only have 7 heroes over 500 GPM too that I barely ever play. Makes no sense.
