It's actually relatively fine where I'm now, there are only true retards in my team when I'm on my 4995 MMR and then match that get's me 5k, that's when I've had 4 retards so far, otherwise, not so much.

Everyone is also English, always supports doing support stuff.

[Gravoth_iii]

For some reason the video starts in thee middle for me, so just start at the beginning of the video. Actually got some really good points.

[Osiris]

yeah that guy is pretty funny. Also seems alliance pulled out some good form O.o

[Christo]

lol I swear if I play ranked it's an automatic loss.

Retards whining for wards but it doesn't change anything for them, moron going 3/13 and blaming it on "gg no wards"

This guy was struggling to build mek when our teammate already had one ages ago. Why just why do I have to play with these fucktards.

Going lower and lower in mmr, and they say elo hell doesn't exist.

[Osiris]

so your going down im slowly going up we might meet if you drop another 400 or so and i go up a little

[Christo]

Looks like I need to go mid and command the fucking game. If I lose mid it's on me.

Supports don't get me anywhere. I don't really like mid though because it's the tryhard lane but ugh, whatever. Need to play more of that.

[IR_Kuoin]

Reason I prefer to do solo roles, can't blame anyone but myself.

[Gravoth_iii]

If mid is fucking up you can (atleast as support) go there and make things happen with a smoke or a bit of luck. Supports have so much power to affect every lane early game. Venge is probably my favourite support all around because she is just perfect for this.

Keep picking OD, never leave mid (OD is not a ganking mid), people/supports in 3000 MMR don't know they should gank mid, so just farm for 30 minutes then one shot everyone with your ult.

(OD is not a ganking mid)

A concept 90% of people don't understand, so prepare for flame

Yeah I prefer to kill my lane opponent much more as Outhouse Decorator, the only time I went for a "gank" is if I got really lucky runes, or some mofo was diving between tier 1-2 tower areas. Basically stuff that nets a good kill.

[Tomas_Miles_again]

Yeah I decided to play Sniper because maintaining vision and babysitting 4 carries was consistently not working for me (yep, ranked). Of course, I continue to question my own decisions and playing etc, but sometimes you really just want a nooby carry who can dps from a safe distance.

Got a couple of questions.
1) What do you think about Eye of Skadi on Sniper? (I like it)
2) Is there any point in levelling the first ability? (I prefer to max attributes first)
3) Is using ulti to harass squishies before incoming pushes a bad idea?

[IR_Kuoin]

Skadi is ok-ish on Sniper, makes it harder to run from him and gives me a lot of tankiness, wouldn't get it as first big item though. His shrapnel does a lot of damage overtime, in a teamfight it can be really good, and it's good for ticking down towers  / buildings since it also damages them.

[cmp]

Also shrapnel has a long casting range and it gives you vision, which synergizes well with sniper's range. Always get it over stats, and also consider maxing it early on.

If you aren't good enough to influence slightly more than half of your matches into wins, everyone in your games is probably better then you are, believe it or not, and you belong in a lower skill bracket.

There isn't an "elo hell," just bad players who blame everyone else for losses while having no idea how to last hit, map control, team comp, gank, or just about any other basic DOTA skill.
