Look at my post: >>716040532
Compare the filenames and you can see he stole my shit. I bet he doesn't know anything about Dota at all.

>>716043043
Yeah, that's what Dota is like, buddy. 2k hours and you can't even play all roles. There's a reason why people are afraid of the game.

I played WoW in the past too. I think /played only showed how long you played the character you were using.

Oh, really? Good job. It's fine to like a role, because I would play Off Lane if I was choosing. Did you watch Esports World Cup?

Are you talking about this? This was better than EWC. EWC was disappointing. Team Spirit vs Pvision wasn't even the Grand Final, and the actual Grand Final wasn't good.

I could play all heroes except for morphling. Because he was boring as fuck and thus i refused. He was also untouched in general until some patch made him meta back in like 2015 or 16

I always rape my lane as CM but always fall off after level 6-7 and can't do anything, die when warding, fail at ganking, fall behind, and my ult is useless unless my team is swimming in CC.
Any good guides?

Yes. The best guide is talking to other Dota players. I've played Dota since I was a teenager and I still fuck up when warding. Let me explain something that happens
>put sentry on cliff
>i see an obs
Sounds good, right? Nope. If there's an obs, then the enemy has seen me and I'm dead. It happened in a match recently. I should have put an observer first, and I would have a higher chance of getting away. That's my tip when it comes to warding; If you're in a danger zone, then put an obs first.

Also, you can quickly switch wards in your inventory with Alt + item hotkey. I didn't know that for a long time. It lets you ward faster.

i play really safe, getting in there for an ulti is only worth it when you can hide behind cover or after theyre distracted enough.
otherwise frostbite and crystal nova are both really good skills with long range for helping securing kills for your carry, lets you stay deep in your own lines forcing them to dive you(and die) or ignore you.
if theres no fight just stack camps which is a bit of gold for you and helps you carry and ward like that other anon said.
really depends on the game

I peaked in the same place, and someone explained to me that the middle area in Ranked is really hard because you can't solo carry the game anymore, and teamwork is actually important. I think I could have went higher if I didn't mute the chat. I always think about why I got stuck, and it wasn't shit gameplay; I just wasn't playing the game properly.

I mean that I removed communication from my gameplay entirely. If someone needed help, I didn't even know. If I tped in to help people, I would have won more. Just stuff like that. Stuff that the pros do.

Thanks for the advice.
My issue with playing 5 is that I don't know where the fuck I should be after the laning phase. As a mid I know to rotate for ganks and try to take towers and harder farm, as 3 I know to make space, as 4 I know to gank and as 1 to maximize farming routes, but after finishing the lane phase as 5 I have no idea where I should be at any minute.

Well, the name of the role is the hint: Support. You should just be following people unless they're farming. Even if they're farming, it's fine to follow if they're farming in the enemy half. So yeah, if you just hang around near people, you're doing your job.

SEA, despite its shittery, has produced multiple tournament-winning teams. NA hasn't been relevant since PPD-era EG. The only worse region is South America.

Ask me how I know you don't even watch tournaments. It's because if you did, you would know Youtube has a chat, and that's where they interact.

if theres no team fights i usually move towards warding our forest perimeter and stacking camps while trying to put up a ward around theirs to minimise their own farming.
but always keep an eye out on the map for a fight to tp in, maybe even surprise stun someone so your team can get a kill, remember to grab the xp runes and if possible the enemy one too.

Correct. All the casters, analysts and Dota pros show up at the tournaments. That means someone doesn't follow the scene and thinks there's no fanbase. I legit watched both Team Spirit and Pvision vlogs because I couldn't watch EWC. Later I realised I could just use a VPN.
