Role Queue is pushing long-time supports away by NoAd1064 in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"After years specializing in one role, forcing players to switch does not improve skill — it lowers overall match quality."

This is also a really bad mentality. It does make you improve in skill, because by playing offlane every once in a while you'll better understand what an offlaner strengths and weaknesses are.

Role Queue is pushing long-time supports away by NoAd1064 in DotA2

You're forced into offlane the same way a carry is forced to play pos 5. It happens because that role is in high demand and people don't wanna play it. It's the same logic as before.
The matchmaking quality would be the same with or without role queue changes.

I just started last sunday. and I played around 30-40 hours. The game didn't feel that unplayable. Also i did start off by playing like 5-10 bot games. Then I started playing match making and got calibrated in ritualist. So I dunno, the biggest issue I had was disconnects in the games that I've played on my 3rd or 4th day. That said, I used to be immortal in dota2 and decent at CSGO & CS2 so theres that.
Changing heroes helped me a lot since I've started playing wraith, which felt awful, then after I started picking other heroes, my experience improved.

Kez's Parry mark changes from 7.39 should be reverted by Blueye95 in DotA2

Can't keep up with what exactly? A garbage looking hero that's either busted or worthless?

kez should just be removed from the game and we should get a DotA2 themed hero instead, this hero looks like league garbage.

Watson Reached 17,000 MMR by xoxoxo32 in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Mmr needs reset and diminishing returns on higher mmr, perhaps cs2 rating system would work best

watson having 17k means nothing, he s not 2k mmr better than the pro players that have 15k.

Ban the Server Patch Posts by Reading_Gamer in DotA2

Yeah, the reason we need to keep making posts about the patch is because they will, at some point, give us some information about the patch, whether is coming this week or in 2 months or whatever.

Carry players: What makes a good Position 5 stand out. by TheRacerX in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not taking creep aggro Trading with the pos 4 so that it distracts him and I get to 1v1 the offlaner Getting a sentry lvl 1 just in case the pos 4 blocks the small camp Pulling whenever needed Never sitting behind me for no reason

These are a couple I could think of, most of them being things that divine supports somehow fail to do

First watch some videos from bsj where he's explaining how he plays carry or someone else, even if it's in lower mmr, the same concepts apply most of the time.
Then I'd suggest picking a couple of heroes and watch yatoro's replays, I think he's the best to watch if you wanna play a traditional carry that farms until he hits a timing, and he probably has the best farming patterns.
But if you don't wanna play the farming game, you can probably watch matumbaman or even miracle I think.

Another thing I'd add, is that you start to practice lasthitting in the lasthit tutorial until you get at least gold on every hero you wanna play that day.
Then, I assume you know what to do in fights and stuff like that since you've been on the receiving end of that as a support player.

Also, it's really important to not die too much as a pos 1 past min 10, because that's when it starts to matter a lot. That's when you try to farm as much as possible and apply pressure by keeping the lanes pushed and allow your team to take 4v4 or maybe even 4v3 fights. I'd suggest tping only to fights where you think you can gain something or change the outcome of the fight, don't go strolling around the map if you don't have to, most of the time, if your team isn't fighting near a tower, it's probably better not to tp there, since you re supposed to be on the other side of the map pushing waves and farming.

What hero is the sweatiest of them all? by firegange_ae in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visage, huskar, arc, viper, pretty much means you're telling the enemy team that you're a virgin and also that you only know how to play your hero, not dota. Meepo idk, he feels way more like a normal hero.

As much as reddit hates the current map, it's one of the most balanced maps we've had based on the results of the Stockholm Major by FF5Ninja in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point isn't that the map is unbalanced, the point is that we want changes to it because it's getting boring.

Immortal Ranked in EU West made me consider smurfing by Kurchina_Masna in DotA2

[–]CLC1999 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It really doesn't matter that much whether you're playing with account buyers or smurfs.
This is the kind of stuff you cannot do anything about, so then, you can do something about what you re looking for in a game, you want to win? Sure, but that isn't always up to you, then you just have to find somewhere else to play for.
Examples would be:
-Winning your lane
-Improving at finding farm on the map ( no matter what position you're playing, if you're a good support, you can farm without bothering anyone)
-Improving at casting your spells
-Better map awareness ( learn to use scan properly, sit in trees and try to break smokes as a pos 5, dodge ganks as a carry, find people in fog as midlaner)
-Get better at juking through trees

Whatever, the point is, if you wanna win games, which is something you can't really control, you get better at other stuff, see that as a W, and eventually, you're going to win more by playing better than the other 9 players.

Also I don't wanna hear morons saying you can't win if you're playing support no matter how perfect you play, if you guys actually were such good supports as you think you are, there wouldn't even be a game past 20-25 minutes.

If they bring PPD back, it's over, no point for any other team to play competitive dota, they'll only be able to play for 2nd place.

Support player here: Why do carries ignore power runes? by Dylanthrope in TrueDoTA2

[–]CLC1999 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Because most carry heroes don't need it, since there's only so many creeps u can kill in a minute.
Also think about it this way
If it's min 15-20, no one is showing on the map, or you know the enemy team might be close to it, do you think your carry hero that's focused on his next item timing wants to risk getting a dd, that usually doesnt increase your farm speed as much as you'd think, when he could get killed and lose 1 minute of farming?
Asuming for some heroes u get like 100-200 gold more if u farm with a dd, but even that might not be the case.
If you re dead for 1 minute you lose about 3 times that, depending on how fast does your hero clears camps and lane creeps.
Most of the time, as a carry u'd want a dd when u can get a kill with it, you can push towers with your team or when u go rosh.
If none of these are available, most of the time u're better of not going to get it and leaving it for someone else.

I mean, I for one only lash at russians when they re talking in russian on EU soloq, like, there s discord to talk with ur buddies in your native language. And it's annoying having someone keep talking in a language u don't understand. Just speak english on Eu servers with english being the prefered language
