heavily out drafted enemy for late game. The storm should have bkb early to end that game. I don't know if you did great or the storm is just too bad by the score you have.
Pos 4 sniper... farming safelane? While the pos 1 and 3 share offlane? Lolwut?
I like to pick up spirit vessel when playing support sniper, but you seemed to do well your way
bravely gave fb to let carry get 2x kill, gives healing salve , sets up neat duels for lc, bcause of that enemy team had little success in the early game and eventually lost.
I can tell from the game that it was a mess, what was up with meepo and LD? And you didn’t die, but it looks like you dedicated all your time splitpushing
Very good item progression. Necrobook deals good with Mirana and the Nullifier must have worked wonders. Good draft. Enemy got fucked by having Razor as their carry.
Dont have a whole lot insightful to say w/o dota plus match details. You're a pretty decent Tb spammer. Your items are normal great kda. We will see if you continue the spam after the nerfhammer comes. Congrats on vhs
Your picks are bad, especially the core picks, maybe Tb or naix would have been better as carry and u could have asked SHAKER to roam and u played core necro. But until close to 30 min mark u guys had the lead, but against am if u don't have the right cores, it's advisable to close the game before he fills atleast 4 slots. Tbh, I can't blame you if I don't know the pattern of ur picks.
I don’t like tge new blood, I think as is not as needed on him as damage, and the rupture change will take time to get used to. But you won so gj, you had a lot of damage items but maybe you could have died les with different itemisation? I’m not a fan of radiance and a dagon it’s 2 different playstyles. One for sustained in and out fighting whittling down enemy team hp and the other is shotguning the enemies
Great KDA on your Kotl of the Light... but you could have helped shaman with buying more sentries, else kotl is a good teamfight hero now especially against those who have no bkb or fast movement.
Definitely took one for the team. Great game to have an AA too. And all those wards man, gj. I know it’s a thankless job but keep on being cool mr support picker
the most deaths on your team, yet you still had the highest gpm though which is good. you probably died because you got duelled alot which you could have prevented by getting a linkens.
considering the game started out in radiant's advantage, having only 4 kills on visage does not reflect that. your overall hero damage is extremely low for supposedly a high dmg brawler that fights all the time. unless you were support, you could've won the game from mid.
our pos 4 suddenly tilt mid game and planned to be a carry himself and exhaust all farm spots i think that would be the main reason i really stomp rubick mid and force him to transfer lane tho
Do not pull the small camp unless you can connect it, it's detrimental. Instead stack and pull, or just pull the strong camp if you can't seem to connect the pull. The only time it is beneficial to single pull is when the enemy offlaner has completely abandoned their lane, and you have a catapult coming up.
Don't ever ward during the day unless you know you're out of vision or are smoked. 9/10 supports below for 4k will go through the river to place a ward and in most cases a player with moderate map awareness will check your inventory and let their support know that you have a ward.
When ganking, if enemies start running away even though you're uphill, there's a high chance that there's an invis hero nearby or the area is warded. Act accordingly.
The best time to go on solo warding expeditions and not dying is during the night time. Why, you may ask? During night time most heroes have their vision reduced to 800, which is significant if you don't wanna go through the river to place a ward. If any side lane is slightly pushed out, you can sneak your way into the trees if you're aware of the vision range of lane creeps.
When playing against aggressive supports(for eg. Cm, pudge, earth spirit, etc.) ward the lane area BEHIND the t1 tower. This will catch any rotation the enemy support may be making, and being the shit tier it is 9/10 they won't be smoked so that ward will catch them coming and save your cores from dying.
Get your core items. It's okay to play a little bit greedy, however you must know how you're supposed to play greedy. Stealing creeps from your cores when they're farming the lane or jungle is absolutely unacceptable.
If you're a squishy support, stay back in teamfights. Most of the time I've seen supports dying because they rush in to commit a single spell to "save" their core who is under no immediate threat of dying and get blown up by the enemy team . Unless your cores are under the threat of dying, do not commit your spells or commit them from a safe distance.
Keep a tp once you hit level 3. For some heroes it's alright to get a tp even before lvl 3(example dazzle, earthshaker, sand king, etc.), but lvl 3 you should almost always have a tp since lvl 3 is the a big power spike for most supports.
Use smokes sparingly. When you're using smoke, there has to be an objective to be achieved with the smoke.
If you have to die while saving your core, it's worth it, but if you're close to a pivotal core item it might be a good idea to hold your horse and let your core die for the greater good of your team(example mek on enigma, blink on lion, etc.)
If you're afraid your sentry will be dewarded by the enemy team, you can try to place it in between trees so that you still get true sight but the enemy can't see the ward.
You seem pretty good with pudge tho i really knew from the start that you pretty much did your role based on that huge assist number. Good sense of item build because you buy crimson instead of other tanky items to help your team with extra armor form physical damage enemies . but i wonder why youre win rate is lower than half. A friendly advice tho stick to one role for now so that when your match is in High skill already you would not have a hard time. and try to be good atleast 3 heroes for now :)
Thanks, it’s low because I play for fun mostly and don’t really have as much time as I used to to play. I try to learn a lot of heroes because I cannot play one hero again and again. But I really enjoy pos 4 and thats my ussual go to in parties with my higher rank friends.
Oh my, i know that it's not my place to comment an ancient player but i love how your visage go, so much pressure for the enemy. (regarding hero and tower damage). You control the map well as all of your tower leaves unschated. A truly befitting visage spammer.
I cannot think of any 4 hero combination that could have countered a farmed TB. From draft stage itself this game was won.
Stomp lc pretty good
Let's pick 5 cores against antimage sounds good

Good Bara KDA with DR to end it all, nothing to say more my friend ggwp
absolute stomp as a venge with 38 assists wp dude.
ez game as warlock because naga siren abandoned. ggwp ez game!
Flawless Mirana game, still hard to wrap up the game with Tinker enemy. wp
bravely gave fb to let carry get 2x kill, gives healing salve , sets up neat duels for lc, bcause of that enemy team had little success in the early game and eventually lost.
You won a +1HR game as Bane, with a feeder on your team that went 0 - 82 and their BKBs don't mean anything vs a god-tier Bane.
PS: That's a serious amount of games.
Sniper itemisation on opposite game killed the game for them
I can tell from the game that it was a mess, what was up with meepo and LD? And you didn’t die, but it looks like you dedicated all your time splitpushing
where's your damage ?

Enemy team needed a PL instead of CK and maybe a riki instead of pheonix
Your enemy huskar has 2 halberds, however looks like you pulled your team's weight. It's a low skill game so I guess that's to be expected :P
Note to next; Check my most recent ranked game
Late game tb tearing through buttholes as expected. Bkb was crucial when you got that it was ez
int build = NULL;
The other team needed a riki or legion. AA winning mid against Huskar is surprising.

bad game for centaur
Nice Invo game, great team coordination that led to an ez win ggwp
Must’ve been a hassle Axe game, no clear easy catches.
Your Tinker having less damage than the spectre is a problem lol
@EtdAWESOME : Our Pudge wanted offlane, so i jungled, died one time & wants me in lane. Man i don't even know how we won lpl
How do you have only ~50 lasthits on batrider?
Definitely took one for the team. Great game to have an AA too. And all those wards man, gj. I know it’s a thankless job but keep on being cool mr support picker
Seems like a game that went late and the team that did most mistakes lost
Current meta picking sf mid is just stupid... that is what cost them a lot at the start. Ogre eats sf for lunch with a bad start for sf.
bad itemisation
the most deaths on your team, yet you still had the highest gpm though which is good. you probably died because you got duelled alot which you could have prevented by getting a linkens.
pretty much pub stomped the enemy
literally everyone wait till they have a good game and then post here to expect someone to give them good comments
Playing visage and end up as useful as a white chalk.
considering the game started out in radiant's advantage, having only 4 kills on visage does not reflect that. your overall hero damage is extremely low for supposedly a high dmg brawler that fights all the time. unless you were support, you could've won the game from mid.
our pos 4 suddenly tilt mid game and planned to be a carry himself and exhaust all farm spots i think that would be the main reason i really stomp rubick mid and force him to transfer lane tho
invoker 1v9
Great dusa game you completely stomped. You must have a good graspnof the hero

Thats cool and all but isn’t this meant for the support tips thread sir?
Let's keep this thread alive!
I honestly didn't expect a 9.5 core match in Legend bracket... I thought people there should be better than my bracket, no?
Anyway, you survived that with a win and that's a good thing. Sorry, but I can't find any other good thing to say...
Power of pitlord showed right there. Went late cause of techies but showed that pitlord can hold his own lategame
You seem pretty good with pudge tho i really knew from the start that you pretty much did your role based on that huge assist number.

However, my wolves hit tower harder than you.
I think picking a ranged hero like Storm made the difference plus CM did an excellent job warding and not feeding, unlike Lion on the other side.
