I have never been 1800+ but I am 100% confident I can beat practically anyone mid same hero

I want to prove myself to someone who will queue with me if they think I'm good enough to climb mmr

I'm currently 1550 but I KNOW I'm better than that. I've beaten a lot of 1700's mid when the circumstances aren't ridiculously stacked in their favor as far as support/how lanes are doing/roamers/guarding runes/hero match-up


Oh god. I have so many friends in the 1500-1700s and they think they're Baus. You're probably one of em.

I was actually in the 1930 by soloing and sry, if you cant get out of 1500s, you're not worth more than it. 1700 - MMR is so casual that you can carry almost every game by playing 1v5.

I've restarted many accounts to troll people and i was around 80-90% win rate and 1650 ++ in like 10-15games... So man, please... stop thinking you're good.

If you wouldn't be so blind as to judge everyone by their rating points, you might notice a few legends playing in the lower brackets.
He's asking for a chance to prove himself to a higher rated player in a 1 v 1 game. Instead of boasting about how good you are, you could have taken up his offer.

Amen. I generally agree that rating is pretty good approximation of skill level but I've played 1950s who played like 1700s and 1600s who played like 1800s.

I offered to try to play Malidry but I haven't heard from him in a while. Maybe he lost interest...

I tried to find them to post them, but they were no stats and I guess those don't record...I thought they did. He said something about recording the games so maybe he'd post them on here.

Game 1 was Gunblade, my choice. I bloodlusted him.

Game 2 was Cthuluphant, his choice, I bloodlusted him. Thought the elephant game was going to go to Creep Score, but I had a sizable lead in that also.

To be perfectly honest bloodrush has better micro management than myself but I really don't see how he is that much better than me. The vast majority of players in my bracket have no idea that blocking the first wave is critical to holding the lane. The elephant match he went 100% damage items and I chose a buckler. That minor advantage helped him a lot because I could tell I had a better sense of last hitting than he did. Gunblade match was boring since it's one of his favorite heros (I don't know that for sure but I'm almost positive he would say yes) while I never play gunblade due to his low lack of utility and low herodex win %.

I typically don't reposition creeps unless it is a melee vs range situation mid or he has a large base damage advantage.

Both games were even base damage or slight advantage base damage because of item selection. Gunblade was on par and Cthuluphant he had hatchet minor totems and gauntlets while I chose hatchet buckler. That normally wouldn't be a big deal for me but bloodrush is a very good player so every bit matters.

SS game was tiebreaker and I lost both games.
