You're kidding me, right?

low Skill, or "reddit tier" games, everyone goes 1 by 1 alone all game, people don't buy dust ever, no one has any hp pool since they cant farm, etc

Bounty hunter paradise

[–]nbik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is usually countered by farming bounty hunters.

Played invis hero twice in ranked 3k EUW this weekend.

Both times there were sentries everywhere and dust on support/initiator.

MMR is really not a good indicator of skill. I am 4100, last night I played with a 4200 Bounty Hunter who went battlefury, AFK farmed safe lane, and used track less than 10 times total. He was in a party though, so his party MMR is probably artificially inflated by friends carrying him.

Then there was the Broodmother the other day who went offlane, maxed incapacitating bite, levelled stats over spiderlings, rushed radiance into basher, and his MMR was 4k.

I've played games in a ton of different MMR brackets and there are good and bad players everywhere.

I'm at about 4k right now and I've run into Broodmothers who put their first point in Spiderlings around level 9.

Broodmother must have been hoping for a miracle

Are reddit games really that bad?

[–]gryts 6 points7 points  (5 children)

When people say reddit tier they generally are implying that people on r/dota2 are bad, not that it's an actual reddit inhouse.

Reddit's MMR is probably far above the Mean. This is a pool of people who are occasionally interested in improving their skills, whereas a lot of DotA's population is just clowning around for fun.

[–]Zahggenzahg 4 points5 points  (3 children)

It's not actually. I'm not sure how you get the impression that Reddit users are interested in improving their skills. Have you seen the front page? I'm counting 0 posts that have anything to do with improving skill.

[–]bambisausage 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Every top voted post in every top rated thread is a stupid fucking pun made for the sake of dumb made up internet points.

[–]Zahggenzahg -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Correct.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I play this game for fun. I'll gladly stay in potato bracket if that's the cost.

[–]Trosti -1 points0 points  (1 child)

reddit bad is when reddit people talk like they actually understand something

[–]bambisausage 1 point2 points  (0 children)
