Dunning-Kruger-Doto

    Title. I stopped playing at 4.5k mmr International Ranked, took a break of 3 month, came back to doto cuz i was curious and sit on 36% winrate now. I dropped so heavily and games seem to be unwinnable. Any tips?

        Stop playing carry.. But seriously, in this shitty bracket you need to play some support if u think to raise mmr.

            jungling is dead in early game, just pick hero with strong laning presence and gain momentum from there

                Well the same thing happened to me. I didn't play dota for 7 months straight. When i came back i dropped from 4.6 to 3.9. Nothing you can really do about it other thab practicing more and learning whats good in the current patch.

                  Spectre is as strong as always, dunno what are you talking about

                    I don't get it. No matter what i try, i keep going down and down. I dunno what happens, but I can cleary see that my enemy and my team is really performing on a trash lvl, but I can't get a grip on the game and start roling. With every patch farming creeps becomes less important and deathballing becomes more. When we have the lead I cant get my team to fight and end, when we are behind they seem to look for fights.

                    I was 5-0-7 with spectre and had 18 min radiance and yet we could not win that, because I could not gather the team to fight. Sf was pretty underfarmed and we got stomped.

                    Void went 1-13 as saflealane farm and his mate fed the antimage.

                    And all my games seem to go like that. They changed the heroes I used to play so much and I am not able to exploit my enemies weaknesses and I just can't figure out why. It just feels like farming is out of fashion...

                    I have a 35% (!) winrate now....

                      First of all stop being delusional.

                      I dont understand people that come after a huge break and spam ranked games ? What you expect ? U need to play everyday to be in "shape". 3 monts is 500-1k mmr drop in skill and game knowledge.

                      Everyone from the other team is working for your -25 mmr, while you dont play as well as you used to play.

                      Stop playing cores, stop playing rankeds and destroying games for everyone. You need to play for at least 2 weeks to get back into "shape" to be ready for rankeds again.

                      Everything matter, small things that you dont see about yourself influence your team badly. Typical doto player looking for others' mistakes. Some games are unwinnable - everyone has to deal with that.

                        I had breakes before and I did not went so badly... But somehow the meta changes are so friggn drastic, that this time everything is a bit more complicated...

                          you need to just keep on playing and stop being delusional. I once stopped playing rank on my main account and played only smurf/party with friends for half a year. When I came back to play solo rank on my main i struggled to win even with mid 4k avg (i threw games and dropped from 5k to mid 4k before i abandoned this account), it took me around 20-30 games to get my skill back and start climbing mmr back to 5k, which took me around 50-60 games in total.

                          You can see that even i did not stop playing dota at all, i just enjoyed the games on smurf for 6 months, and suddenly i just realized that my skill dropped down so much that it took me 30 games to gain everything back. So dont give up and keep on playing, and stop thinking that youre better than the bracket youre in cos your skill has dropped down a lot.

                            Don’t feel bad I took break from dotes and dropped from 4.5 k to 2.7k , I’m barely past 3.3k now . My drops probs on the extreme end tho .
