For what its worth, I did the equivalent of the 1500-1600 climb on Dota2, mostly solo. Players are just as bad if not worse in the lower Dota2 brackets

This is very true. But you just have to play a different style for scrub games. Play under the assumption that the other 9 people are retarded, like bigbalaboom they're 1500 for life players and you can work it to an advantage. I personally played a ton of devourer and pebbles because I know that the enemies have no map awareness and suck ass at dodging ganks. In addition, my teammates who are also most likely 1500 for lifers need me to help them out in the early game.

This is pretty much exactly right. You have to be self-sufficient in these games. That means, you go mid, you win your lane, you gank when it benefits you, and you take as much farm as you can .You don't waste time trying to gank at bad times or take bad teamfights just because your team wants you to. You also never trash talk. If you're serious about winning in this bracket, don't ever flame in all chat or especially team chat. Ignore players that have dumb attitudes as opposed to responding. Being negative in chat will affect your play and your team's play for the worse. Finally, realize that you make mistakes and that you can always improve. You cannot control your teammates, but you can control your own play. Even with awful teammates, someone playing perfectly is going to win a ton.

Pretty true, but the games get really good once you get into the .01% bracket. Serious team play with proper lanes and line-ups. Lots of fun since its playing Dota how its meant to be played.
