I only try to upvote or GAFpost things I genuinely like, not what is popular. But I get how that front page is what 99.9% of people what see.

Live!

This Dark Seer head is far from popular. I just liked it a lot

How did you know it existed though? I usually go through all the new posts as opposed to the front page.

Wow, Jakiro and Medusa kept that Alch fed.
Don't worry, I'll join you in the sub-1k shit tier once I am able to play ranked.
I just need to pay more attention to my entire team so I know the feeding is happening and then setup a gank or rotate or something.

Turns out my MMR is 3193. Not displeased with that. Here's to gradual improvement, hopefully anyway. I won 5 lost 5 of my placement matches so I probably have the same MMR as before them roughly.

Bane was better.
I need to vent GAF....lord help me.

Just played a game with a Clinkz that was doing really well at the beginning but as soon as the enemy team got dust...

I would keep telling him "they have dust" and he would stalk them even when they were grouped together (all 5). I'd tell him to back, they have dust, back, etc. but he would again and again stalk them and follow them around hoping to pick one off. Obviously what happens? they kill him...over and over. I've never been so frustrated at a game of dota....

So does anyone know what percentages relate to what rating?
I've heard 5k is like pro level. What about 1000? 2? 3?

Below 2k is super scummy level. 3000 is supposed to be the average, but it likey skews higher in ranked. 4k up is pretty good, 5k up is where must pro player are.

Someone needs to make a site that lets you look at all the cosmetics in a model viewer and create sets, then have it link to the items on the store/market.

Some of the bigger traders have done this 3rd party imaging with legacy couriers just for reference purposes, but yeah that's definitely the next step. If Cyborgmatt can do it every week, why not let everyone do it.

There was already and online model viewer, so it can be done, get on it Matt and I want a cut of any profits.

Decided I'm not gonna attempt ranked until I complete an A-Z challenge.
I guess I'm moving up in normal mmr because people are warding now. Still gotta fight my own supports for last hits tho.

IDK how many matches you play a week, but it takes about 2-3 months for some people. You are looking at 100+ wins and let's say 200 games.

Wouldn't you be better served playing like 20 games of supports in a row/20 games of carries in a row or something?
Dota's about roles and team compatibility - if your team is 5 carries or 5 supports you are fucking your own team by your arbitrary design.

I once lost 11 games in a row. Took a break from the game after that :)

You can tell when the rebound matchmaking occurs because all of a sudden you have rapiers and rax at 20 minutes.
