A lot of the time I don't even mind playing whatever is needed, but in some games you're like "If I had known, I would've just instapicked core." Yeah it's so useful actually, and I like that it doesn't show all the MMR's so the lowest guy doesn't insta flame. | ||

i don't know i gave up on ranked, the only way to climb for most peolpe is to just spam 1 hero you can stomp pubs on, mmr rapidly becomes more meaningless the higher you go, everyone's fucking terrible at this game anyways including me who fuckin cares | ||

I'm very curious as to what they're measuring and how they're going to judge the experiment as a success/failure. | ||

The trench is just slow swimming up a river of poop to the promised land of Anime and yelling at your teammate to drop their stick. Here's a secret about the trench IT NEVER ENDS the trench is everywhere. The trench is dota. There is no escape, your games and teammates never get better, and your mmr is a meaningless number once it hits like 5k. | ||
