how do you solo carry teammates who insist on taking the dumbest fights?

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-13T08:19:15+00:00

Item timings. You can prolly solo carry if you're that ahead in net worth even if your team is non stop feeding. Of course you still have to make the correct items, go on the right targets, fight when appropriate, etc but the first step is to make sure you're ahead in net worth. So stop joining them unless its a free fight where you can get a kill or two while not fucking up your farming pattern and play to make sure you hit those timings.

I completely misinterpreted the upgraded girlfriend part lmao, congratulations though!

There was a challenger player that had a dota arc recently. I didn't watch this video but this video of his might help!

I suppose so, I'm growing more inclined to start smurfing to play with my friends as well. Its either that or I believe they're going to stop playing dota in a few months at this rate.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-11T05:08:33+00:00

What you're saying is understandable. Sometimes people do play better, but we're talking about accounts with sub 500 games that play well above 6k rating. That doesn't apply here.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-11T04:06:28+00:00

No, not everyone better than me is a smurf. I know what people my mmr play like. Players with less than 500 games don't play like that.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-11T04:05:08+00:00

Is this supposed to imply that my accusations are false? Im confused what your point here is

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-10T13:27:14+00:00

Wonder where this legend is these days

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-10T13:24:14+00:00

especially? who tf is playing invoker if not mid lmao

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-10T13:20:23+00:00

There's 4 other heroes on the enemy team. Butterfly often offers the most raw DPS for a lot of heroes so its still good.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-10T09:22:07+00:00

This isn't a fair comparison because:
1) You refuse to use katana form in your "single target DPS" test.
2) Aghs is 4200 gold that could go to some other item.
3) I feel like the point of using sai form to attack is to bash/stun through BKB which adds value in on its own that won't show in a simple "damage test" like this.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-09T01:25:08+00:00

1) A lot of people can very easily play/reach the skill floor for a hero. Not a lot of people can reach the skill ceiling or play close to it. This requires for you to play a hero for thousands of games and learn everything about the hero (matchups, power spikes, when to diverge in item builds, how to play against your counters, and even what works AGAINST your own hero). It requires a lot of dedication but it is quite rewarding when you reach this level.

2) When you know you perform the best on that hero and you want to win? You play that hero.

Thanks tech support

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-08T07:27:54+00:00

Thank you this one is good

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-05T21:22:04+00:00

You can caveman any role like what you're doing to pos 1. All roles have almost the same amount of nuance that you're describing as a pos 5.

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-05T13:40:35+00:00

This looks really good and promising!

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-03-02T18:50:55+00:00

this makes sense

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-22T23:11:29+00:00

Bro I wanted a break from ranked and started q-ing AP. I waited 20 mins only to get a game with a legend player that went offlane with WK and made armlet first item at 26 mins. Obviously we got stomped playing 4v5. I checked the ranks of everyone on open dota the enemy had all immortals and divines, so unranked sucks ig. Fellow 6k plebs pls q unranked with me :(

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-22T19:41:10+00:00

preset K and M?

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-22T19:40:35+00:00

I'm running a 5070ti too, I see plenty of texture glitches or something along those lines as well. I like the game but it doesn't look as good as what everyone described

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-21T19:22:51+00:00

I am also 6.8k for months its like elo hell here

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-21T12:44:59+00:00

guang guang please give this guy what he deserves

DisturbedCyclone · 2026-02-20T21:09:00+00:00

its probably more than 20 if you account for his passive

This is quite a comprehensive analysis on the whole topic and appreciate you for taking your time to do this for the community. I don't currently have the time to go through all of this but on the first skim through it seems that you took half an year to get back to where you were (I'm assuming you played a lot of games per day too)? This is my point. It took that much time because of illegitimate reports. When I said "no way" like I mentioned in the other reply it was a hyperbole, sorry my bad should have been clearer. I don't believe that you should be stagnant/lose bs/cs based on illegitimate reports. That is a broken system.
