A Good Carry to Break Through 4k MMR in General Discussion
MeePwn

    Hi, I've been stuck between 3.7k-3.9k mmr for a month. I boosted from 1.8k to 3k by spamming meepo and from 3k to 3.8k spamming anti mage. But every time I play these heroes now, I always get countered hard. I didn't bother counters before 3.6k but now, I'm loosing games everytime someone picks sven against my meepo or BS against my anti mage. Also, my laning stage is getting weaker and weaker every time my MMR increases. I encounter harder lanes e.g a weaver off-lane against me solo safe-lane AM. Free farm lanes are really hard to get.

    In short, I need to learn a new carry who will be tanky enough to survive a hard lane AND at the same time, be a good farmer, jungler, split pusher and a late game carry just like anti mage. IMO, lycan is the best hero for this job but still, what do you guys recommend?

      Any carry tbh

        ^at your mmr, any carry can do, but at 4k, thats not the case

            @op
            You missed the point
            If you spam a hero, basically you first pick that thing, right?
            If you can actually gain up to 3.8k by spamming antimage I'm sure it would be easier for you to grind with heroes who can actually pubstomp without playing against 9 people against you

                          Who the fuck wants to carry in 3-4k dogshiet tier. Srsls dude, go offlane and win gamse.

                          Aethoeix

                            u mean if we put a 5k carry player into 3-4k tier he will fail to climb up?

                            1/2 smurf

                              @Juno 5k player will climb easily because of his strong mentality,4ks are so weak mentally,just pressure them and they are done.

                                      @1/2 smurf, can you specifically teach me that "mentality" because I think that "pressuring" is my main problem and fear. If I get a pushing offlaner, I am unable to last hit under tower and then I just end up with 30 last hits by the 10 minute mark. Moreover, in mid-late game, I am always scared of the enemies like BS who will just rupture me and kill me easily

                                        As a position 3 and 4 player i can tell that i'm strugling to deal with sven in my recent game.
                                        Also If my team doesn't have burst damage and i'm against a Necro i know we already lost if he isn't brain dead.

                                          U DONT NEED ANOTHER CARRY, U DONT HAVE MAP AWARENESS ,BAD ITEMIZATION ,last am game u literaly die twice without a tp and he clearly walking with a ward in your lane, hope u improve i have the same mmr but ive not played in a week

                                          kormoranas

                                            i would say not a carry but rather support, since there are really lot of dotas without support in 4k, and at least i noticed that when supporting there is so much higher chance to win :)
                                            if you really want to carry, go offlane phoenix, mid broodmother or shit like that.

                                              Bro just play Necro , especially when team has low burst. You'll win every game.

                                              MeePwn

                                                @Kzoom, I had already given up on that game and I was just wanting the enemy to end fast.

                                                Desolate

                                                  lol ur lycan sucks

                                                  u need to watch all map all game amd use howl and maxing howl passive first
                                                  its hard for 3k to watch map at all

                                                  so i recomend u to stop playing it

                                                  TNL.Jolly_Hotdog

                                                    any carry that can push and split push without relying on your team.

                                                    MeePwn

                                                      @lane its like my 3rd game as lycan. I'm kinda playing him like anti mage and really become annoyed when I can't push as fast as I can with anti mage. You are right, ever since I stopped playing anti mage, my split pushing and map watching skills have declined. =(

                                                      Desolate

                                                        ^ @op i recomnd u stop playin lycan unless u know to use howl when suports gank mid, pushing lane, fight or som1 is ganked etc but obv u dont know

                                                        stick with anti hes good , also slark, troll drow op too

                                                                    meteor hammer

                                                                      thats why URSA WARRIOR is perfect. u can start fucking them immediately and never let up

                                                                      🍩🍪Cookie🍪🍩

                                                                        General Asim Muneer

                                                                          meteor hammer

                                                                            BoomBoom

                                                                                            I dropped from 4.9 to 4.1 cuz I kind of stopped caring and threw most of the games, but I breeze from 4k flat to 4.5 with that hero easily.
