            Hi there, I m sub a sub1k player and if u don't mind my autism I would love some help

            Rin

              hey harmless, at that bracket simply learning to lasthit and understanding what heroes do will win you games really easily

                @cookie, you don't goto a public square and complain that no one is willing to discuss astro physics with you. it's a dota forum. not a 5k forum. you could always create a community/forum for 5k+ players if you feel like the community is lacking something like that. or you could just add all the blue stars and have nice discussions using other channels. i just don't know what you gonna do when the 6ks start thinking the 5ks they talk to have nothing to contribute. then the 7ks think the 6ks have nothing useful to the discussion. well. maybe you should just go pro so you can speak to the best in the game.

                tldr. there's really nothing much you can do when most people here are normal skill.

                dead

                  what we could do is help the normal skill players here improve and gain knowledge, thus making them more tolerable and have better discussions.

                    Btw bro, i dont think im really fit to coach you bc im like 300 400 mmr higher than you which isnt much tbh

                    Seven-

                      youve got a lot of people on ur hands, good luck on that

                      Seven-

                        though actually i would want to be coached as well

                        not rly coaching tho... can we do 20-30 min game analysis? i actually prefer those esp the ones with timestamps, helps a lot

                        Rin

                          Thank Alice :3

                          🍩🍪Cookie🍪🍩

                            I just wonder how soon will leaf give up on his coaching service, it can only grow

                            And no man can coach that many low mmr players for free without going insane

                              ^ i've coached a bunch of my friends. probably about 6 so far. but i just do it for fun once in awhile.

                              Rin

                                im not going to coach everyone forever lul, just thought it'd be a nice thing to do tbh

                                    Not even coaching just maybe a replay analysis or something

                                          Thanks leaf for the coaching
                                          I doing terrible on that match
                                          but I think I learn what my weakness on and gain abit extra knowledge.

                                          for those who will be coachingood by him - relax don't be so nervous like me

                                                  i think i did well in the mid-late but at that point nothing i could would win us the game

                                                  my early game decision making was too garbage, but idk what exactly i did wrong to be a non factor

                                                      hi leaf, do you mind to watch or anal this match, and point out what mistake i made?
                                                      i tried to analyze my match from replay,i just can't find my real mistake, like a real dumb mistake.
                                                      if you don't have time, it's ok. thanks :)

                                                        can you tell me what I can do better?

                                                          The easiest way to win more games in low mmr is to improve your last hitting. Even getting something like 10 more last hits in the first ten minutes can change how likely you are to win by a surprising amount. I went from getting around 20 in 10 min to getting 30-40 (Which yes i know is still bad but its 1k) and my win rate went up 5%.

                                                              If ur really into free coaching, maybe create a youtube channel, and post games of others on youtube and coach them like Purge does. That way, everyone can see your awesome coaching skills :D

                                                                                00:50 you keep fucking up creep agro for urself
                                                                                00:55 you just wasted two thirds of your mana pool using a level one spell and have only one mango, not a good idea generally
                                                                                01:10 youll have a better chance of surviving if you go down through the trees using a tango, then you tp to the lane when the lane was pushed and would have come to your tower had you walked. you basically wasted a tp for one melee creep xp

                                                                                01:58 you should make a habit of agroing creeps when going for lh's, less harrass, and u wont fuck ur positioning up
                                                                                Pracitice last hitting under tower

                                                                                4:10 wasted stun, it achieves nothing, if tb chases you, you can stun under tower for more dmg

                                                                                4:20 you missed ranged creep xp for a lh, you can agro creeps closer to your tower. personally, i think needs xp much more than farm

                                                                                5:20 its clear that they pulled the creep wave. hitting TB illu's gives you nothing in return. go get some xp from the pulled wave, drag it back to lane if possible

                                                                                6:50 you wasted your first vendetta trying to kill an oracle. try and get a core. you really need more map awareness, you could have known that drow was jungling and searched for her. maybe it was an ez kill, and more importantly, much more valuable kill.

                                                                                Staying in lane with nyx after getting ult is 99/100 times the worst thing you can do. go gank. just missing from the map forces enemies to play scared, its a lot of space for other lanes

                                                                                8:15 you just ulted next to their creepwave. try and get in the fog whenever possible

                                                                                Aether lens kinda gives you nothing at that point, the only time youre impaling is out of vendetta anyway at that point. i think a force staff does wonders, heck, you could even helpout with wards and still be getting more bang for your buck

                                                                                13:20 you can cancel animation to bait them out, make them move slower. also, dont come out in weird angles if you dont have to. you can wait to see where he goes instead of coming out of vendetta where he could go 2 ways

                                                                                16:40 you dont really have the damage, why dive?

                                                                                Overall, work on your lasthitting, map awareness, and understand what your hero is supposed to do
                                                                                Farming top would've been good if you were something like bristle or centaur, but a nyx gotta go terrorise other lanes as soon as he gets ult, like bat and dagger, or lc and dagger, or any hero and dagger

                                                                                Pl4cid
