                                Murranji

                                  Played a game on my smurf because I wanted some last hitting practice in an easy environment.

                                  https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4302187351

                                  Anyway guy I'm playing against last picks Invoker so I'm kind of questioning about if he's genuine. First minute in lane confirms he's a smurf as well, and pretty highly skilled. Invoker's completely unfair attack damage makes it impossible to out CS him with snipers' 44 attack damage so I get crushed in lane. Then once he gets access to tornado he starts pulling off perfect tornado, coldsnap, meteor comboes and kills me in lane 3 times in a few minutes.

                                  Both other lanes also completely lost so we're down 17 kills to 1 in 10 minutes or something. Luckily since the rest of his team didn't pick a very good scaling team we were able to hold off long enough that eventually even the troll and medusa one my team got some farm and were able to help tank sufficiently to allow me to do my thing as sniper. The Lion was particularly happy because he thought we had lost fairly early on but I just told them to keep fighting.

                                  Anyway after playing against me the guy went on to crush a few more games.

                                  Lo I see that he ends up in this one - https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4302845906 playing against one of my dota friends and a lower skilled friend that he also plays with. Aus dota, where the player pool is small enough that you can vs a guy on a low skill smurf and have him playing against your higher skilled friend in the same day.

                                  Smurf detection eventually triggered and placed the guy in a very high skill match which he abandoned and idk if he will ever use the smurf again.

                                                    Go play against 3k or 4k player in a 1v1 match for you to know the difference you fucking idiot. Your Father should've used a condom

                                                      honestly if your words cause the thread to be locked you should get a ban from the forums.

                                                        I have... and it was pretty straight forward... ive beaten 2-3k players easily in 1v1 and ive drawn against a 4k before.

                                                        Lol. New Year is just a date but xmas is more? Ahaha

                                                        How is New Year's comparable to Christmas??? Christmas is practically a fortnights holiday where people take time off work and travel to see family members and such. New Year's is like a 24 hour event that most people skip cause they are all partied out from Christmas. IDK anybody who really cares about the new year its just an excuse to get drunk and let off some fireworks... not exactly a holiday nor is it any more important than Bonfire Night or Halloween in this country...

                                                        Vertoxity

                                                          It's the same shit, both are pretty much stupid. Both are exactly an excuse to get drunk and lert off some fireworks or whatever.

                                                                Even if you win a 1v1 that doesn't mean your 3k mmr sir, look at my mmr, I'm rising, but I ain't fooling myself to be a better player than I am. If you would consistently focus on what you can do better, rather than blame everyone else. You would realize that you can grow, but you're being blind to your own mistakes and Instead hate on people that lose their lanes, sometimes lanes are meant to be lost. Game gets hard early on but you (undoubtably winning every lane in every game you play) should be capable of holding them back till your offlane/safelane/mid core gets his farm on good levels. That's how you win. Not by choking on ass, and then blame your other laners for it.

                                                                Yoichi Isagi | Blue Lock

                                                                  Yea don't use ranked as your "practise" games, that's why there's unranked to play in. At least get familar with builds and ganking first in AI Bot games. I hate people whom random and play "new" heroes in ranked. Also spam high impact easy comfy heroes you like. For example NS, Lion or Spectre. There is not really a MMR difference. Watching people play Immortal 4 or 5 or watching Admiral Bulldog play top 500 players gave me conclusion that there's bad players in "EVERY" mmr bracket. There's no "inhouse" or "club" area with only good players like dota 1.

                                                                  Doesn't matter if you're in 1k or 7k there's gonna be people whom build butterfly over defensive items verses a magic heavy lineup. Or that Silencer that makes orchid, that mirana that always ult under smoke etc...

                                                                  eXcel

                                                                    An easy observation to make through a stream, but those 'bad' immortal players would still crush games notably below their mmr. Maybe they've been forced to play a role or hero they're not comfortable with, or maybe they're on tilt. Unless they're an account buyer they're still not objectively bad, they're just having a bad game; which in itself is something that's more likely to happen when you're playing against the best.

                                                                    Low rank player

                                                                                                    I calibrated when mmr was first an addition to this game. Being new to dota I calibrated low, approx. 400mmr. I played some solo games back in the day and managed around 900 before i peaked as a newer player and gave up on ranked.

                                                                                                    With the addition of the medals system i thought i would give ranked another try, however valve benchmarked our calibrations based on our old mmr - in my case mmr which was no longer relevant to my skill level having played well over a year of pubs since my last ranked game. I calibrated as a Herald V in terms of solo and party. Party mmr was easy for me, i played a lot of games with friends of similar skill to mine and i had around a 80% win rate reaching Crusader, Archon and eventually Legend last month. Currently I am sitting at around 3500 party mmr and have settled around Legend II. Party games are simple for me. I play in normal, high and very high skill lobbies in a variety of positions and always I have no real problem with the games. I am still gaining party mmr and I believe that I have the skillset of a 3/4k player.

                                                                                                    Solo mmr however has been problematic for me. A couple weeks ago I decided once and for all it was time to grind up my solo mmr so it is more in line with my party mmr. At first I thought this would be simple, 1ks are notoriously poor at this game (so I thought) and I presumed gaining mmr would be as simple as my experience in party ranked - however this wasnt to be. Winning in 1k is far harder than 3k. Ive read all of the posts on how to gain mmr and how to escape the trench of 1-2k but nothing works. I spam heros that win mid and dominate the mid game however I find increasingly that solo mmr is a 1v9 where my team play like how you would expect of 1ks with little understanding of space, the map and farming patterns. The other team will always seem to be more on point, with rotations to my lane and a general understanding of positioning, warding and team fights. Despite winning my lane in practically every game ive played in solo ranked my team will be so poor that the game will be untenable. 1k is blighted by toxic players and smurfs which make winning reliably impossible. Even if I find myself on a small streak of wins I will quickly revert to where I was due to smurfs preying on the 1ks on my team.

                                                                                                    I know I am not a 1k player because I dominate and control the pace of my 3-4k party games and yet in the week that ive been trying to grind solo mmr I have made it from 950 to 1100 mmr and got stuck. I implore valve to allow for the recalibration of solo mmr. There needs to be an option for players to attempt to reset their solo ranked mmr in line with their hidden unranked mmr (again I know my unranked mmr is decent because I am placed into matches with fellow legends and ancients when i look for solo pub games). There are players in the 1k bracket which simply do not belong but are being held back by poor teammates, smurfing players and the tilt that comes with losing due to the crap that happens in the bracket. Something has to be done to help clearly under-calibrated players escape the pit of 1k because it is disheartening knowing that solo ranked games are always going to be more luck based than skill based.
