    Alright I'm gonna start telling mine.
    This is my first account in dota, I wasn't willing to play this game after it came out since I don't wanna accept that the warcraft I knew is slowly dying. I still wanted to play that because that's where I made memories with my friends, we used to skip school, absent, lie to our parents that we have project at school just to go to a computer shop and play together, we also played with our seniors but the outcome was expected, we didn't have a chance.

    2 years after Dota 2 was released, they started playing it and I was afraid that I would get left behind and more weaker than they are since I was hailed the strongest player in our class in the previous dota and everything was new, the controls was weird, buying stuff was weird like it was inverted so I was really left behind. 3 or 4 or 5 years after it was released, my friend who never played dota before wanted to play dota 2 with me after he was taught in the computer shop, so I guess it motivated me to play after he said it was easy to play.

    I remember my very first hero in Dota 2 which is timbersaw, and it was my strongest hero before, My friend who taught me the basics of dota 2 like how to open shop and how to buy is just beside watching me. I really had weird build since i like to build vanguard then arcane boots, then I dominated which really made me happy and my friend praised me but unfortunately we lost because I did not expect the game to be that long and I ran out of money and my friend did not have any money also, after that I started liking dota 2.

    I saw my seniors flexing their mmr at the computer shop like they own it, it was 1.6k. At that time I thought it was really big since I still can't callibrate that time. Then after playing countless matches it was my time to callibrate. I guess we just adapt differently. My first callibration was 2.2k mmr and I was sad since my friend who never played dota before callibrated at 2.9k , heck I tried to teach him the warcraft III version but he did not understand it at all or wasn't willing to understand it.

    Then we played ranked match together, some games were tough, some games were ez but after 200 games I knew that I'm probably gonna stay at that bracket forever and I got frustrated thinking how I can't raise my mmr. So I started creating another account since I believed that I was stronger than that. And my prediction was correct, I callibrated at 2.9k in my new account but I was still not satisfied because at that time, players in the computer shop I used to play had an mmr with 3.5k but none reached 4k that time and many players from other place used to go there and make bets and I wanted to participate but they only want players with 3k and up and I only play carry or mid that time.

    So I started creating another account again. At that time, after my callibration I got surprised when it callibrated to 3.9k which I really did not expect. It was one game short till I reach 4k. I was so proud that I did not play that account for weeks just to flex it. I was about to be the first 4k mmr in that place, when the time came that I played it, I thought games would be similar as how I callibrated but I lost almost every game. But every game I play, was a great experience for me, I did not understood the playstyle at first but the more I play, the more familiar it became until I hit 3.5k which was the lowest mmr I got in my new account. At that time, I really lost my hope thinking that I deserve that mmr or this mmr so I played without care and just played normally without thinking about losing anymore since there's nothing to lose... anymore. Then my mmr started climbing up till 3.7k which I got stuck for years or so.

    To be continued, after this was the turning point and how I came back to this account which was long forgotten.

    I also wanna know your story in Dota, I can barely play dota now because of school(I study aeronautics btw) and damn, It's so hard maintaining a good grade while often playing DOTA. I really like to play dota but I'm not good at doing both at the same time.
    Mind telling yours if you have time to spare?

        Short story.
        I hit 5k a couple of years ago and after that i'm stuck at 4k. Ive been at 3.6k and 5k. Its all about luck and how you play. Now i play dota 2 for fun and ive set up a couple of goals here and there with wins/loses and thats it. Be less toxic and the games will be more fun to play. If you are playing competitivly all the time u will lose sooner or later. If u have a lot of time playing a lot of games again u will lose some. It's a game of addiction. Also i've 1 more account which i there hit probably 4.6k +- and on this one i hit 5k for a couple of days. As higher you get in mmr the people get worse and worse. The only demotivation factor is that when i calibrate lower than my mmr +-150 mmr.

                    Nostalgia really hits where it hurts. After we graduated highshool, they weren't playing dota or dota2 anymore and I missed my chance to play with them. I was really sad and I didnt know what to do anymore, I wondered if I should stop playing dota 2 also, It was until I met new classmates since I transferred to another school and damn, it was the first time I felt overpowered after seeing one of my classmates had 4.3k mmr and most of my schoolmates were 4k... Or atleast acting like 4k.

                    Anyway to all those unsarcastic comments, Well I'm glad that you liked it. I'm probably gonna continue my story sooner or later.

                                          This is what I meant from the other thread when I said that Kowa is far from the most toxic person on this forum. He’s just memeing, trolling, to get a reaction. Unlike the others who I mentioned, actual toxic people with their heads far up their asses

                                              Also, Dota story, I played it, I became addicted. Legit addict, my parents had a curfew for gaming and using computers, so I’d go up at curfew, set an alarm to around 3am, and wake up just to play Dota. Looking back it was funny as fck how stupid I was

Now im 7k+, when i look back, wow, i played almost 10000 hours of this goddamn game

                                                                                        PS: i dont play solo rank on my main anymore( grinding mmr isnt worth your time)

                                                                                          Yeah that's what the purpose of the game, to have fun and I have forgotten the reason why I played it. I was so focused on gaining mmr that I reject my friends invites and play mostly solo. I wonder where my rank would be now if I just played this account with my friends and did not create any smurf.

                                                                                          @EtdAWESOME
                                                                                          lol, well what do you know. I'm also a computer addict since we have pc at home (the internet connection sucks) and Me and my brother share the same computer . We used to fight a lot because of it. My parents are also strict about playing excessively, don't know how many times I got punished for playing all day or playing past 10pm. There was one time my father got really angry and he broke the monitor lol, but he did buy another one since he also use it for printing and other work related services.

                                                                                          @basement :)

                                                                                          Welp we have similar reasons, though I chose path since I have lots of fun playing computer games. I guess it's better for me since it prevented me from becoming alcoholic or using drugs and fuck random people every night.

                                                                                          @Kowareta
                                                                                          Well goodluck with that. Slim chances but still exist... Probably.

                                                                                          @A wild pikachu has appeared

                                                                                          Hey you're like my classmate I met at senior highschool he had 4.3kmmr, it was in 2016 btw. He also got stuck in 4k bracket for almost a year. He was considered one of the top players in our city after he reached 5k that time since they always play bet games and players from our city recognizes his skill. There was only one person who surpassed his mmr in our school and he was our senior, he graduated civil engineering at the same time he reached 6k.

                                                                                          PS: I was so busy I forgot to add my story.
