Pro teams playing Mirana as a support is the worst thing to ever happen to pubs.

After watching Dendi play, I have now confirmed that there is no ELO hell and never will be. There are idiots in all tiers. Skilled idiots.

I think it's better to say that ELO hell exists, and encompasses all MMRs between 2000 and 7000.

(I've lost ~400 MMR today!)

I think its not painfull, but revolves around having a serious isssue, if you're gonna use 16 hs of the day losing games in front of the computer, play some, lose some, go out and enjoy life, 16 losses is too much for a day, might suicide after
Go pro or die trying

People just assume that one support is enough, and that the one support with no source of income outside of assist gold means that there will never be a shortage of vision / detection / smokes / teleport scrolls. People are stupid.


Generally people just don't get support. Like they don't understand what it's for, and they resent it. A support, in their view, is supposed to cater to what they need, right when they need it. And there's some truth to that. But good support play is way more than just fucking babysitting.

And people don't really understand mid, either. You gank mid most of the time, not the other way around. What the fuck is a level 4 Shadow Fiend supposed to do if he goes and ganks the Lich/Clock lane you're facing bottom? Nothing.


Seconded! No one will ever try to gank mid, but they'll yell at you for failing your lane and not ganking pre lvl 6 with your hand of midas invoker..


#1 problem in low MMR pubs (which I am proudly part of ). People who think it's mid's responsibility to gank, and it's usually supports calling for it too ironically enough.

I remember when I was low MMR, and every game you get the 4 minute "OMG can you gank already" even though you are a level 4-5 invoker/SF or something that shouldn't even gank at all

early ganks can help a lot on some farmy mids, but it depends on what runes you get and the heroes and the items and all that other junk.

I feel like it pays to gank in pubs whenever you get a good rune and the lanes are in reasonable shape. Most of the farmy mids are still pretty dangerous with a haste or invis when the lane has some setup.

Of course, if the lane is under their tower or you have 0 stuns against a timbersaw, you turn around and go right back to mid. The point is that you'd probably do that even if you were slark or pudge or whatever.

I (think) I'm in the 3k MMR bracket for solo queue. I'm 8 games into the TBD bracket (5-3, so not bad) but the 3 that we've lost. Man, so frustrating:

I have AP, CD and CM ticked, but it's all been AP so far.
I always first random. Either I get a support or I get something someone else wants (go figure) so can swap.
So this game I get Bane. I'm doing ok, getting some grips, etc. Our lane is something like 12-4 by the time I'm out of lane (3k bracket gamey games!) and our Sven has some farm going on.
So I'm think we'll be doing ok. Later on we're 33-20 up and I think we've got this.
NOPE. TIME TO DO THE THROWING. Individual fights and repeated farming over and over and never taking a team fight means we eventually just die.

The second loss, wooo.
We get a rubick and random QoP. I'm thinking "Ok I'm mid vs Slark. I'm ok". Nope. Orange calls mid and picks SF.
I'm offlane with rubick. He starts off alright, but then just gets out of position and dies to lion/ls over and over, getting upset that I'm not coming into help. Guy, I have no stuns and anything I can do is just raged off by LS. Doesn't want to hear it. Pings me to attack LS. I go in, unload all my abilities, don't get the kill because LS rages and then, over mic "Oh yeah, good work, idiot". Okay, it's like that is it?
During all this, SF is 0-3 vs Slark after being a monumental failure and Rubick's now dying to him, too.
We get absolutely destroyed. In the end, Medusa, myself and our yellow are something like 8-9 between us. SF and Rubick are 0-20 and Rubick's feeding couriers. Game is over.
I will reduce you to a series of numbers.

i unserstand if i play with idiots, or if i play with tryhard wannabe pros, i mean fine, nothing wrong with being a tryhard or being a fucking braindead nub, but how the fuck it is possible to have clueless idiots AND tryhards in the same game AND EVERY TIME THE IDIOTS ARE ON MY TEAM VS 3-5 STACK WOMBO COMMBO, counter-warding, smoke ganking while we re lucky if we have a walking courier

If people keep calling for a "tank" in DOTA2 games I am genuinely going to have to goddamn punch something.


Also if you're Nyx and there's only one other support on the team, and you're not mid, then that means YOU are the second support. Which means DON'T BUY DAGON. I hate having to 1 protect 4 because the only other potential support in the team decides "NOPE IMMA GANKA!"

I used to queue with someone on my friends list who would do this.

I don't queue with them anymore after they decided to be a dick about builds. (And after they threw a game by ragequitting a game which I nearly managed to carry 1v5 after my team left. All I needed was ONE person to micro at our base and slow their base race. :-\)
