    After being trolled into 2.7K, I find the succession of wins, (Plus free rates increase on everyone, but my invoker.) I'm finally in the 3k Bracket after a long disarray of no points being given to me, and people doing stupid things.

    But I've noticed that people in the 3.0K bracket are either one of two things: Really Scared, or Too Brave.

    Like in my last two games that I've had are perfect examples of this. I did shitty in both of the, SS for reason of legit saturate, and my Bird for just stupid shit.

    I was doing a really bad SS game, so I just used my W to stun the Sniper for our morphling to solo kill them, then we had enigma to help us kill the rest.

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/574618588

    The only problem was, he told me "You are initiator, you get the whole team to target you."

    That would be great, if they didn't have a million and 1 ways to stop that sort of thing from happening whatsoever. The Morph would just go in, and try to solo the whole team by himself. Brood felt scared to be away from the team so she tagged along every team fight. I cringed every time I saw Morph die.

    The next game just happened. Normal pub, not feeling really skillful. First Pick phoenix after I saws the pudge, orge, and pugna. The rest of my team pick. Invoker, good pick for keeping them in line durning team fight, rasta for pushing, and life and riki for our single target carries. What could go wrong?

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/578150849

    Support riki, and max exort invoker went wrong. That and the fact every gank attempt that I made. (Yes I was mid bird, get off me,). Life was getting litterally fisted by the supports down in the bottom lane, because a trilane riki, rasta, and Life seemed like a good idea. I took out pudge, but when I saw that riki had 8 sentry wards, and life was laning, I just gave up. Vlads first riki didn't help either. Every attempt I made to help ended in with either invoker running away, or life and riki running away and me and rasta get killed. It was a nightmare.

    So anyway, as so far here goes the list for my journey out of hell MMR:

    1000 = New to game, trolling, or Leauge player(not really, just bad)
    2000 = Getting better at the game, no concept of coordination, everyone picks the carry
    3000 = Everyone is scared, carries support. Little sense of team play.
    4000 = Your average, people who are acceptable, and can team fight with the team
    5000 = ??????
    6000 = Assuming Dendi
    7000 = Assuming IceIceIce

    Now stop posting about the MMR"s.

      Anything below 5000 is chock full with shitty players, me included.

        ^ you do know wave has 3 accounts >5000 right?

        Hopeless

          ^
          You do know he abused to get those accounts with intentional feeding right?
          Also, his most recent smurf account was reset back to calibration last he shared.

          he will probably find some way to get a high mmr going again, but with the new leaderboards coming....

              I don't need to smurf. Why squander great skill on lesser's who have yet to grasp Dota?

                      0 = uh im not sure
                      1000 = http://dotabuff.com/players/139135476
                      2000 = quit the game
                      3000 = Peruvian heaven
                      4000 = trench
                      5000 = Wave
                      6000 = Rtz and 5 other retards
                      7000 = Retards

                              I'm 2.6K and I never instalock carry, I always last pick support when I solo queue, I'm different from my people trench (still probably crap though)

                              Although he fact I'm climbing probably means I'm doing some shit right :D

                                absolutely correct, TMM gives rating to both normal mm and ranked mm, how did you find out?

                                6_din_49

                                  At 3600, when playing ranked I insta-pick support because I've lost too many games because of useless support-pickers (the kind of support that sits behind the carry doing nothing).

                                    You do know that at 4000, people are mentally disabled? Mostly of them going solo in 99% of time, then abuse voice chat? Be happy that you don't hear that.

                                        The fact that you think 95% of the 7 million or so people that have played dota 2 are mentally disabled.... would actually imply that being mentally disabled is the norm, and all players above 5k (aka the very small minority) are deviating from the normal mental and cognitive for humans. Thus you are suggesting top tier players are mentally challenged.]

                                        I guess we can expect to see you on the leaderboards then?

                                        /smh

                                        lets get something straight people: http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=130209

                                        The devs are expecting to send out around 1000 invites for leaderboards, which will be for 5k+ players that fit the requirements -
                                        * At least 250 lifetime matchmade games played (unranked or ranked PvP matches only)
                                        * At least 75 lifetime solo ranked games
                                        * At least 30 solo ranked games in the last 21 days in the same division
                                        * Official player info on file
                                        * A good solo MMR

                                        Posting nonsense like "all players under 5k are trash" is ridiculous. Dota 2 is getting around 6-7 million players a month.

                                        That is .0001% of players that will be eligible for leaderboards.

                                          I dont care about leaderboard or anything. I will keep on making new accounts and smurf. Thats more fun.

                                          Hopeless

                                            If you have more fun playing against opponents significantly less skilled than you go for it.
                                            If you enjoy not challenging yourself and improving, good for you.

                                            I still got more respect for a 4.4k player that actually plays difficult games and is improving than a 5k smurf that got their mmr inflated because of anti-smurf algorythms and doesn't actually belong in the 5k bracket.

                                            You may not care about the leaderboards, and there is nothing wrong with that. That doesn't mean the community actually thinks 5k smurfs are on the same level as real 5k mmr players.

                                              Its a game folks............. have some fun? You're not going to make a million................... all this cock swinging over 0-7000 mmr is dumb.

                                                From an article on smurfing, of which I think number 3 would apply to a lot here...

                                                You were never held enough as a kid or perhaps you were just dropped on your head at an early age. For whatever reason, the idea of destroying a completely inept and inadequate foe just really gets your juices flowing. You really get off on watching noob players fumble around with their unfamiliar hero skills as your Drow chews through them like crap through a duck (please note how you’re the crap in the that analogy). You also are a fan of snuff films and finding little dogs and kicking them. There is certainly a huge rush that comes with soundly beating an opposing team. Going 24-0 is awesome in anyone’s book, no doubt. But (in the same way that when you’re 6 foot 6” you shouldn’t crow too loudly about beating a 4 foot 4” person in basketball) if you’ve logged 1800 hours in DotA there shouldn’t be a lot of joy in beating someone that’s just fired up the game for the first time. For some reason this kind of smurf seems compelled to not only defeat and humiliate the opposing team (tanking them under tower, killing them in-fountain, etc) but to constantly let loose with a string of tirades and insults. It degrades the game and it’s embarrassing to watch. So if you are a “monster player” that “eats n00bs for breakfast”, smurfing is definitely not right for you. Stop it, you freaky little douchebag.

                                                Generally smurfing is met with negativity but, like most things in life, smurfing is just a tool that can be used or abused, depending on the person employing that tool. Hopefully, with these reasons in mind, you are now better equipped to decide if creating that smurf account is right for you.

                                                Lucian

                                                  well you have a point but while smurfing i dont tryhard or stack at all so those games are harder than my actual ranked games. btw im 5.7k and those ranked games are so easy.

                                                    i play this game only for fun but after calibration games it gets boring so i sell my account and start again

                                                    Vandal

                                                      I'm just curious - how are you possibly able to characterize brackets that are beyond your bracket (except for maybe the highest brackets where you can skip the need for insight by just mentioning "this is where the pros play")?

                                                      Hopeless

                                                        @Myon

                                                        ... Why are games boring after calibration and not boring during calibration?

                                                        Also... selling accounts... not cool.

                                                        But at least you aren't calling specific players trash... like some people who play the game in a similar manner as you.

                                                        Dire Wolf

                                                          How can people compare brackets when 90% of us won't ever change brackets? If you're a 4500 level player you probably calibrated at at least 4k, maybe climbed 500 points. I calibrated at 3400 solo and party, down to 3200 solo, up to 3600 party so I can't say there are any significant differences between 3200 and 3600 level players.
