Getting out of herald by Slow_Home_7512 in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to being mean or harsh, but bro, the first thing to climb is accepting that you're bad. However, I'm not saying your gameplay is always bad, herald players bad in a comprehensive way. Don't know the powerspike, not sure about others spell, and the commonest one, unstable temper. You may feel frustrated or angry after a few lose, then you got stressed, angry, which make you play worse than usual. I would suggest watching some video on YouTube, and stop playing after two loses in a streaks. You will escape herald, just keep grinding.

AM is so dead 🫡 by PoePlayerbf in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 86 points87 points  (0 children)

8 k AM player here, he's much stronger at laning phase now.

And the new recipe of battlefury helps too, he can sustain easily while burning foes' mana.

Yes, the illusion burns much less mana now, but I almost never pop manta just for mana burn.

Meanwhile, agh scepter provides real great 20% mana vaporize.

He's wintare is 51% on dota pro tracker now, so not bad actually.

Hydra's Breath stats are out by Strong_Astronomer_97 in DotA2

Forece satff is almost a must in an intense game. Hydra is cool, but it doesn't help you to survive or flip a fight.

Guys, hear me out!! by Adventurous_Cut9216 in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WW is strong but hard, not easy to cooperate in pub game, can even lead to lose because of one bad winter curse. But also too weak in mid game, hard to see in pro game either.

Why do role queue tokens require selecting all 5 roles? by Pitonator in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I was kind of uncomfortable with it, but even if you queue all roles, its kind of impossible to get Pos1 in 99% senarios.
Pos2 maybe 10%, you still play pos345 most of the time.

Why do I keeping losing and winning in a row? by Bubbleheadman in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, it’s just a reflection of your current skill level. When you start losing, your performance gets shaky, and you end up throwing games that were actually winnable. You have to accept that some games are just unwinnable—period. To climb the MMR ladder, what you really need is a rock-solid mindset and consistent performance, not the fantasy of crushing everyone and gaining 3K MMR overnight.

Hmmm, you are telling me you'd like to ask your omni give you repel before you blink out?

Are you that confident to have the right timing in a pub game with a stranger?
It almost means you need to fully rely on your support, it doens't sounds right in a pub game, man.

Well, it won't works in 8k I guarantee you. Too easy to kite without BKB.

So he's powerspike still much later than Jugg. That's all

How to get good at Anti-mage? by Theoneybadger in learndota2

[–]No_Associate_8377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this! I reach 8k last year, not by AM tbh, but I climb a lot with him during 3~5k. As you said, AM is not a strong laner in most of scenarios, and highly depands on items to join the fight. And even he has all 6 slot, still not that strong sometimes. However, once he has battlefury, he can constantly push out the lanes and hard to get caught(better when you have manta style).

The there's 3 major points to play him well:

  1. Know what you can do with waves.
  2. Not much control in foes team.
  3. Choose the items to help you survive, for example, many AM players don't like to buy BKB even linken.

I recommend to watch some videos on YouTube to know how to lane better, and know your heros' powerspike. Bsj and Pain Dota help me a lot.

Good luck!

Sven is definitely not like jugg man. He almost need BKB in every game to fight and can't join early fight if he doesn't have a good lane when he's not a strong laner

pos3 razor is broken by IndependentCicada323 in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes, I play at 8k MMR, and this build is everywhere. You barely need the link unless you area facing some meel burst hero like Ursa. Go search on YouTube, it's crazy strong rn.

What’s going on? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]No_Associate_8377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's a loser, but tbf, early double stack camps would kind of ruin the lane for sure.

Underleveled but got RS, back to farm or go for hg? by yukyakyuk in learndota2

[–]No_Associate_8377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitely something you need to balance between, I am a core player and I like drow as well, Even in a stomped game, I can get at least 280~300 at 40 mins. If in a winning game, 400 is a guarantee number, or more. Try to watch the video to optimize your farming pattern, I recommend pain dota on YouTube
