    I really need some help to improve, i seem to always lane well, and have a good amount of farm and gold, however most of my recent games have been spoilt by other members of my team losing their lanes horribly and then i am not able to compensate as the enemy core is too big for me. HOw do I improve to get around this. Any help is much appreciated!

        You can't ;( it's your team's fault

          Yes in 100% of the cases, it's your team holding you back.
          You're the true 8k god but lets all blame your team k?

            96% Core - K.

              im not saying im amazing, or that every game is ruined by that, its just when i t happens what should i do?

                Let's see here. U are farmed but somehow the enemy
                Core is more farmed. Why is that?

                Do what the enemy core is doing because that's obviously better

                  youre actually right
                  in those last troll/PL/BS game there was nothing you could do to win

                  play as well as you can, if you dont win go next

                  the closer you get to 3.5 k the more unwinnable games you have.
                  1k mid who bought a 3.5k acc picks sf mid and rushes aghs dies 15 times, go next hope next game the 1k acc buyers are on the other team.

                  i was at 3.3k and every game there were lvl 8 profile accs. 1ks buy these "max hidden mmr" accounts which are very cheap because they think they will stay at 3.5k after calibration. sadly they are dogsh it, invoker pickers that cant even cast 2 spells in teamfights etc.

                  just accept the grind to push throigh the 3.5k barrier or stop playing dota like me :)

                    And just had a powercut so abandon a game... Great...

                      It happens sometimes, but in the long run if u keep losing over and over, u are doing something wrong.
                      On average u'll have teammates who lose their lanes and teammates who win it, and it's way too game specific to give advice on what to do shud they lose their lane. But know ull also have games where they win their lane and it usually equalizes, so focus on what u can do.

                        If u lane well but can't finish the game it means u are playing too solo. It works if it suits ur playstyle. Some players just 1v5 every game. If u don't like the feeling of carrying your team, learn to do rotations as a carry. Win the lane and help your team snowball.

                          Thanks some of these comments have been really helpful, my play style definitely suits the split pushing, farming one vs 5 carry, but sometimes that is not able to happen as my timings will be undercut by the early power of the enemy team, especially ifthey won the other lanes! What would you recommend doing if that happens?
