just a bit of question about support smurf in General Discussion
nob-

    i am a 2k player (before though, i stopped playing for quite some time until this recently, can be seen here https://www.dotabuff.com/players/295282808) and i admit that i sucked at using cores that i actually lost using invoker fighting heralds and guardians (https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3649230364). this account is actually a 700 mmr one but my 4k friend who liked to smurf carried this account's party mmr to 3.9k (you can see on my profile). and so, i tried calibrating for medals using supports(dazzle) only and i found out that i could still fare good with 3-4ks as a support (i did fuck up once or twice but then else it's cool). now, if i were to go smurf, is it possible to get HS and/or VHS as a support only from the very start? because i can't carry shit :((

        Most annoying thing is playing w a 1k support player who does nothing and just tries not to die. I doubt u do fine in 3-4k games. U probably don't feel the burden u are to your carries

          guys can someone explain why my skill changes uhmm this old smurf acc but before a year ago i got vhs and hs and now i play again its normal when i solo

            https://www.dotabuff.com/players/218263011 just check my profile and see if i do suck based on the stats, and my calibration is still 3.8k after the medal change, in party mmr though.

              and honestly, please answer my question. don't just comment shit about what you think of 1-2k players. i often play with 3-4k in my 2k acc, and i learnt ways to support from there. that's it.

                You have the same mentality as the majority of players who can't accept they're bad

                if you were 3-4k material you'd easily climb to 3-4k from 1-2k with support

                simple as that.

                I know a guy who went from 2k to 4k in a month or so playing support

                Because he actually played like a 4k support.

                the low mmr thing of ''i'm not feeding and i'm buying wards/sentries/dusts" isn't supporting

                that's just being an useless ward bitch.

                I can guarantee you, someone with only 50 matches can do that

                  no, the problem is that i haven't been playing my 2k accounts at all, and i did stopped playing until this quite recent while, and i used this account instead of my 2k account (inb4 my 2k account has yet to be recalibrated). my question is that if i were to smurf to play, is it possible to get HS and VHS using supports only from the very first game? please guys, just ignore the fact about whether i'm a 2k player or such.

                  my base of question is from the fact that people say "cores are the best to smurf", and i am not capable of playing cores(yet, at least).

                  another thing is that i unlocked my party mmr with a 3k-4k friend(pretty close), and he showed no signs of disappointment in playing with me(other than shitty teammates which he claimed to see within the legends rank). if i did make tons of mistakes he would openly say that, but this time it's no.

                        Also you should stop playing on this account. You belong in Herald bracket.

                          lol

                            I just calibrated my 3rd account on slightly bellow 4k, all while spamming supports

                            I am not jumping on a "get to my level 2ker" bullshit train because it is useless. What you need to do to figure out if you are a 4k smurf is to play games. If you drop, you know the reason why. If you don't, congrats on your medal/mmr/whatever non-accomplishment.

                            I will just say this: I see guys all the time in my games picking a support role and being literally a occasional ward buying and misplacing them ranged creep, now I know what the reason for that might be if people from 2k can actually calibrate in 4k range.

                              you won 3 out of 16 games lol...

                              Yeilow

                                You will continue to lose because you are not a 4k player.

                                The main issue I see from looking at your games (from stats and items alone) is that you have no idea how to farm with dazzle (one of the best supports to farm with).

                                I'm farily sure you itemize completely improperly, which is fine at 2k, not at 4k. You are buying glimmer/mek without knowing why you're buying those items, and then you proceeding to use them wrong.

                                Go back to your other account, you will just keep losing with this one, and ruinning other peoples games.

                                We just released an updated hero and facet statistics page featuring more data and advanced filters. Oh, and it supports Turbo!
