People who think elo hell exists and proceed to give up 3 minutes into the game because of "shit team mates."


Yeah, people just don't want to admit they're bad or make misplays. To be honest, unless you're 7k and consistently playing with 4 teammates almost half your mmr, you can definitely be playing better and you're just as bad as whatever 4 "shit team mates" you have.

This is false.


You can believe whatever you want to believe, but unless you're 7k, if dendi or 430 or whoever else you think is really good were to sit down at your computer and play for you at the start of the game, I'm pretty sure they'd find a way to win.

Unless you think you're not that much worse than top pros. Who knows


I think that logic really only works if you're picking mids / cores.

As someone who primarily plays offlane I can easily lose games just because the other two lanes fed before I could come help them


I used to think that too but then I saw dendi play hard support in a pub and constantly get kills and never die and ended up with a 30min eblade dagon 5 or something. I honestly think if people would stop caring so much about their team sucking and looked at their own play, they'd realize there's a ton of holes and they could easily win what seems like a lost game. There's a reason those guys feeding on your team are similar mmr.

Just wanna note that I have the same win percentage as Wagamama, a 7k player.

It's almost like he is unable to win just as often as I am.

Weird.


I don't see how winrate is relevant at all when the skill level of your opponents vs Waga's are completely different. Not to mention alot of his teammates are legitimately 2k+ lower than he is. Unless you're also 7k, in which case sorry your games suck.

In the case of the very top players, the MMR of their teammates will often be significantly below the enemy teams MMR, so they are literally being weighed down in order for it to be a balanced match. In your games, every player is generally very close to the average MMR of the game, so the heavy players on the other team balance things out on average. Ofcourse there are games that are literally unwinnable nomatter how well you play, but in my experience that's not more than 5% of games (when I'm being honest about what I could've done). At the very top they probably have a few more of those games, because of MMR disparity shenanigans.

there's also the fact that waga's played close to 2k solo ranked games and still maintains a 55% winrate. My winrate started out like that in solo ranked for like 500 games before I reached my plateau and wasn't good enough to keep moving up after that

And some games are just unlosable because the tilt baby/5 carries is on the other team.

"Pretty sure my mmr is bullshit. Climbing is very slow because of how heavy my teammates are."

"Your MMR is what you deserve. It would be higher if you deserved a higher MMR. You'd win more."

"But top players win the same amount of the time I do."

"That's because their MMR is so much higher than the people they play with."

I have over 1k solo games by the way.

playing games above 5k mmr is a waste of time, why would I strive to get better mmr when im just going to get worse teammates as time goes on

Had 2 really shitty games just now. Game one, a duo stack getting mad at someone picking techies, starts more or less feeding. Of course I have to play carry/spacecreator/support at the same time, game was unwinnable. Game two, get matched with a guy I had played with before, I knew he was bad and he also had a wierd habbit of buying the recipes first for everything (like, he bought the recipes for both sange and yasha before anything else). The silencer in my team, had no clue about positiong and thought it was good to stand in front (He even said so himself). And of course your typical midder who says everyone sucks (while obviously being terrible himself). Game 2 I guess was kind of winnable if I started directing my team a bit earlier, but even then it felt really hard.

Edit: Third game, we get a cliffjungling queen of pain and the guy that actually got mid starts griefing after a while. I am just not ment to win. Why is everyone that wants to play mid such entitled kids. Most games are won by the midlane, but not because of skill but because the team with the least number of whining midlane wannabe dendis wins.

Every time I get told about it people always say old metas were worse. I don't agree and it really makes me wonder how much proof Icefrog needs before he kills these stupid fucking heroes.

The carry that flips the fuck out when you take a single last hit away from him so you can finish Arcanes/Urn/Mek or buy wards...

Meanwhile he's missing like 50% of his last hits.

I hate that shit so much.

Would you win 55% of your games at 7k MMR...?

Meanwhile if Waga had your MMR do you think he'd still only win 55% of his games...?

40% pick rate when theres 100+ heroes is definitely cancer worthy.

Entire top 7 is pretty cancerous too actually.

I seem to have gotten to a much higher ranking than what I should be at. If I play anything but support, I get absolutely demolished.

this kinda sucks

just tip for everyone, never pick hero that suits to any role, because u will end up being solo support.
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you to their level and then beat you with experience. http://www.dotabuff.com/players/115305822 https://yasp.co/players/115305822

Did I say or even imply that I was as good as Waga?

This can't be that hard to follow.
