The letter K comes from the Greek letter Κ (kappa), which was taken from the Semitic kap, the symbol for an open hand.[2] This, in turn, was likely adapted by Semites who had lived in Egypt from the hieroglyph for "hand" representing D in the Egyptian word for hand, d-r-t. The Semites evidently assigned it the sound value /k/ instead, because their word for hand started with that sound.[3]
In the earliest Latin inscriptions, the letters C, K and Q were all used to represent the sounds /k/ and /g/ (which were not differentiated in writing). Of these, Q was used to represent /k/ or /g/ before a rounded vowel, K before /a/, and C elsewhere. Later, the use of C and its variant G replaced most usages of K and Q. K survived only in a few fossilized forms such as Kalendae, "the calends".[4]
After Greek words were taken into Latin, the Kappa was transliterated as a C. Loanwords from other alphabets with the sound /k/ were also transliterated with C. Hence, the Romance languages generally use C and have K only in later loanwords from other language groups. The Celtic languages also tended to use C instead of K, and this influence carried over into Old English.

Today, English is the only Germanic language to productively use "hard" ⟨c⟩ (outside of the digraph ⟨ck⟩) rather than ⟨k⟩ (although Dutch uses it in learned words of Latin origin, and the pronunciation of these words follows the same hard/soft distinction as in English).[citation needed] The letter ⟨k⟩ is usually silent at the start of an English word when it comes before the letter ⟨n⟩, as in the words "knight," "knife," "knot," "know," and "knee".
actually lets analyze this shit
1: you have way too few CS for your build. travels + blink + bfury should allow you to hit absurd levels of farm, way more than 10 cs/min. you are sitting at 7-8 cs/min which is easily achievable on most carries without a 5000 gold greedy farming item
2: you fucking maxed crit rofl
3: they have no evasion and you have an mkb. worthless
4: aghs is garbage on this hero
5: even ignoring your garbage cs total 700 gpm is nothing impressive. i can hit 800-900 in an easy game and im a fucking trashcan
6: you definitely needed at least an abyssal this game for AM, luckily ur playing against people just as bad as you
im being a dick but just keep in mind that buying the right items will net u easy wins that ur probably missing out on. ditto with skills, crit is usually left at lvl 1 for a long time this patch
he wanted a damage item and didn't want to build crit on a hero that has crit already
the mkb isn't that bad, both am and luna will build bfly eventually. it's just that combined with no abyssal/diffusal and the aghs it makes the build look really fucking weird
hes kinda low on attack speed too imo
how can u post this game its normal skill anyone can get that in easy games ur not even concious how bad player u are
zzz 4ks are shit. dont deserve respect or the right to be a dick. Just funny imo that 4ks think they are good at the game lol. mmr has been so inflated 4k is the new 3k
i think after bfury & blink you should make manta to speed farm even more , bf blink & sny were fast , but ur other items not rlly considering you had this 3 ultimate farming items
also aghanim on jugg , pls its 2016
But getting 700 gpm in NS is easier than in VHS
Shit is so uncontested that the better farmer will win the game nearly every single time
@ the kid who does not have a user. i have smurfed into 4k bracket multiple times, with a much better winrate than you smh lol.
What i said is very true, mmr is inflated.
glhf though
@road
Your teammate wont harass or try to kill you every minute tho lul
Dont forget about the jungle
They aint gonna punish u for that lol
@badman by getting good
By getting good you'll stomp your games
By stomping your games you'll get higher bracket
People who don't belong there will get kicked down from that bracket
Even if you managed to cheat your way to VHS by smurfing you can't fool the calibration system
Maybe your friend is just a good dota player or lucky
No unless you farm as good as a 9k player you will never be told its good farm. Even though you can get 16 kills, they expect you too farm only
It's always 2k players who talk the most shit and complain about how mmr doesn't mean anything.
^^ swirl when ur ahead it should look like this http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2655152081
or more cs actually, especially if u invest money into farming items
