farming and carrying are two different matters
its quite easy to farm and obtain a high GPM and lose
how to have 500+ gpm and lose? because all in all, unless you are a skilled player and can win the game yourself, or unless the enemy are absolute shitcans, the fate lies within your team mates.
after all, its a 5v5, not a 1v5 game.
you can be a support player and "carry" the game with game sense. that is:
leading your team to a successful kongor kill
pushing towers when the opportunity seems most effective
picking off greedy carries far out in a lane
buying rev wards and baiting out the enemy
using YOUR spells on the most important hero on the enemy (such as stunning their behe/magmus who's in the back, or using succubus sleep on a carry while killing the rest of team)
these little details to your game play give you the sense to "carry" the game
i don't define carry as picking dark lady and magebane, because it then assumes the role of carry is a solo matter, that the hero itself is responsible for the win. I find that wrong.
granted, it's a carry HERO, but not the reason for a win (although sometimes, this can be the case with a skilled player on an easy hero, otherwise known as cancer heroes)
i define carry as having the most game sense that leads to a win
now a 27-3 700 gpm swiftblade losing a game must have been
A ) You have zero game sense (which I find it hard to believe as the score was 27-3)
B ) You intentionally griefed (I doubt this since you are seeking help)
C ) Your team mates literally trash that led to a 1v5
I'm going with C
its unfortunate that many tmm hon players lack the capability of playing better than a monkey, but it's truth
you can do everything right and lose the game, because as stated earlier, its a team game, a 5v5, and im assuming in all of your losses, your team mates refused to cooperate that led to an eventual loss.
the only advice i can give you : find mates with game sense and queue with them. it'll ease your tmm experience.
good luck
bro I know but it is hard to find people who have game sense + online when I am. the struggle, need to be more patient and wait for people to get out of their matches before I queue up too
