ok lads here's my YTD stats from returning to the game after taking an extended break (c. 2022).
I got calibrated into low herald ~2 months ago and have gotten to ~1500 MMR fairly easily, maintaining something like an 75-80% WR throughout the process.
Since reaching crusader my games have become significantly shittier, and I'm trying to figure out how to improve from here. I suspect my GPM is far too low, probably from low CS, which i've been working on quite a bit, but would certainly welcome some help in optimizing. Mind you that no supports at this rank ever actually stack camps or really do much of anything in lane, so I just picked up beastmaster recently so i can just stack for myself.
All of the games pictured are ranked, mostly offlane with a bit of safelane (ursa/sven), except for the beastmaster ones, which i just played in unranked recently to learn the micro. I don't want to be that guy and just blame my teammates but i really do feel that somehow the quality of players dropped between guardian and crusader, which should just not be the case. Any advice is more than welcome, either general advice or just resources I can use to get better. Would love to see some beastmaster pro tips as well, anything helps.
