of my last 75 games it has been abundantly clear to me that I completely dominate whether I'm mid, short lane, or top lane. I can play any role and I always just try to fill in as the most important necessity left. when there's a lot of carries I just try to do damage control supporting them because it's really not plausible to win with a double carry lane vs a strong support+carry lane.

I typically have 30-50 denies depending on whether I'm melee or ranged for the first 15 minutes of the game. I harass a lot and focus on every minor detail that can benefit the lane. Rev warding blocked camp to stack/pull. Calling out missings. Carrying a tp scroll if there's a tower dive/helping mid if they're losing. I try to coordinate hero combinations in lanes.

no matter how hard I try, no matter how nice I am, not matter how much I dominate mid or go on 12-0-7 rampages I keep losing over and over and over. I can't budge from 1550, I've literally been stuck in this range for months and it's driving me insane. I am very confident that my knowledge combined with my patience I've acquired combined with my skill of micro-management is higher than a 1550. It's so numbing to lose like this every day in a game that I so desperately just want to have a good match.

TL;DR Version: I want to get out of 1550.

Always when I see a topic like this I laugh^^

Even after my 1 year break I would dominate every single 1550 MMR game, no matter what hero/role.
Just stop thinking about your team and try to get better every single game.

Gotta find a group to que with. Ive had this same problem and just pretty much gave up on the game except for the occasional mid wars.

why u care about mmr, play the game and have fun go with the flow
starting to agree with smack stats and shit can be degrading
am playing dota2 every now and then and nobody cares about ratings kdr and so on

I care about mmr because I was once 1650 floating close to 1700 and back. The games weren't filled with bad players as much so it was more enjoyable

please do.

hon is not what it been befor.



people think that at higher mmr games are better, but they are wrong xD.

High MMR games are better if you're prepared to be a tryhard. You'll get really sick of Tempest, Engineer, Ophelia, etc in every game. 1500s arena nightmare though, but its easy to solo carry games up to about 1800.

Malidry you were certainly much better than I expected when we played, and capable of getting above 1550. Keep a positive attitude, try and meet some friendly Smurfs, and go from there.

its never a good idea to say you do everything perfectly, it's HoN, you will never be perfect. Just keep trying to improve.

If people would actually let me carry but everyone wants to and a large majority of them stink
