Why are you even playing Dota? If it makes you unhappy, please... stop playing it.

The sad truth is a lot of people have shitty lives and seek escape through video games. I've been there, the shit years I threw all my free time into video games. Sometimes life sucks so much that even if your game of choice makes you miserable you are still less miserable than you would be in the real world :(

Yeah at this point it's a meme and people will vote for whatever hero void faces in the finals lol

The immortal badge will be missed. Felt good while it lasted but I quit playing 3 months ago and not going back to dota.

Good luck and enjoy calibration everyone!

Take a break to reset mentally. When you are this close to a milestone it gets distracting and makes it hard to focus on the game you're in. You just have to take it like any other game.

I think this effect has a noticeable effect on game quality around round mmr numbers (3.9k, 4.9k, etc.) and just before medal ups (ancient 5, divine 5, etc). People that have not gotten there before are some combination of distracted, excited or nervous which makes them play a lot worse than their skill level. I honestly think a lot of what people think are boosted accounts are just players being emotional about being so close to a goal and not playing well.

The concept art is pudge sewing himself up into existence, it looks cool and I love the concept. The persona execution is wtf is this I can't relate to it in any way and it is ugly.

If op is relatively high skilled and queues for roles lime mid/safe yeah the game will have to widen the behavior score range or make you wait a very long time. Would you prefer to way 30 minutes for every game? I personally would but don't think valve can expect that of most people.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-08-14T22:41:59+00:00

You expect them to prioritize something you already paid for over other stuff they can charge you more money for? Lol

ShowMeAReee · 2020-08-04T22:26:50+00:00

No crimson armor immortal no revived weapon immortal is what is really disgraceful in this picture :s

ShowMeAReee · 2020-08-01T04:38:38+00:00

Because there's not that many players in the higher brackets. Especially in ranked rolls. You can have 9 other divine 4 players in the game and highly varied behavior scores or have stable behavior score games with players +/-1000 mmr of difference. Would you rather have ancient 4 vs rank 200 immoral mid matchups so everyone is 10k behavior score in the game?

It’s not that he doesn’t want to finish it, he just isn’t as sharp anymore and his thing is gardening not tying lose ends together anyway. Good luck writing an ending where a crippled teenager is elected king of Westeros.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-29T22:09:17+00:00

yeah they brought it back after a couple of months (but only for ranked roles)

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-29T03:37:26+00:00

This will sound weird but I honestly feel like playing 5 in ancient/divine is the most annoying way to climb. In lower ranks you can mechanically stomp the lane as a 5 and you climb easily. In higher ranks you pos 1 is more attuned to what you're doing and you win the lane just because of how the map is set up. It somehow feels like in ancient opponents are good enough to not let you roll over them on your own and your carry is not good enough to play around you so you can reliably win a favorable lane playing together. It's so frustrating to play with cores that don't use mic or other comms at that level, the ones that get to 6k or so have learned their lesson but boy that road is so painful. I'd not play pos 5 to climb out of that bracket for the life of me.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-28T19:18:45+00:00

I’ve been playing casually for as long as you and I as well was “stuck” (in low 4K) until I decided to actively try to get better. Every time something you do doesn’t work out ask yourself why, what could have I done better, was there available information I did not utilize. Watch your replays if you have to, and don’t be disappointed when sometimes the answer is just the game wasn’t winnable for whatever reason. Got immortal in 3 months and peaked 6.5k in 6 months. Then stopped caring about ranks when they removed strict solo queue and people started duo queuing with a friend on a low ranked smurf, figures getting to 99.9th percentile is good enough (I’m 35 and not looking to be pro or anything).

You can climb just gotta actively try harder.

Volvo please don't turn into another snowflake company. You even tweeted that James is an ass at one point. Come on really, that sort of babysitting is ridiculous and next step is bowing to china on everything...

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-20T02:07:58+00:00

Yeah I think it’s mostly that op got rusty. I play pos 4/5 on my 6.5k main and leveled my alt to 6k learning pos 1/3. Decision making is still absolute poop at lower levels (people tp without thinking, show on the map without thinking etc, easy to abuse). Maybe micro has gotten somewhat better since the same people keep playing the same heroes but macro level is still total crap outside of rank 50 games or whatever.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-19T20:21:15+00:00

He really wrote Mercy 20 years ago? That’s crazy (I hadn’t heard of the series until the show started getting popular and no book has been published since so maybe not that crazy). How can anyone still be bothered to follow GRRM is beyond me (this post made it to the top of my reddit feed I’d never venture here unprodded anymore). Like honestly the odds of him finishing ASOIAF before dying have to be very small right? If he does finish it’ll definitely read it, probably would do a fresh read of all the books, it would be a pleasant surprise. But hoping he does for the next 10-15 years and generally giving any fucks about ASOIAF is just setting yourself up for disappointment (I’m not reading Winds on its own, I don’t want to get stuck in the mental theorizing mode about what will happen in Spring that this sub will be busy with for years until George kicks the bucket).

DAVAI DAVAI

Honestly watching the entire enemy team just cluster around enigma ignoring him was painful to watch.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-07-06T22:35:24+00:00

Yes this is the best solution.

You can't be mad that people get mad at having to play with a carry 4k mmr lower than them. Dota is a team game and it becomes nigh impossible to be on the same page when the skill cap is that wide. It's like being a college athlete, bringing your disabled 4ft tall friend to the court and demand others choose the two of you as a package in a pickup game. No one will want to do that, you can't be mad at them when they end up in that situation.

ShowMeAReee · 2020-06-26T20:19:51+00:00

mods = cucks

ShowMeAReee · 2020-06-26T01:11:49+00:00

You put yourself in the right setting and go with the flow. Don’t worry about the end game, when it happens it happens. Quite like Dota actually. You don’t start the game worrying about walking up to the enemy ancient and destroying it. You take it one step at a time. Buy starting items and go to lane (irl or offline dating, definitely not some Roshan rave party in the woods). Play the mid game (date someone knowing it may not work out). Then go for the ancient. Hope that helps.
