You can't carry those games* as a 3 or 4 which is my position(s). Swiggle is a better mid/carry. btw you should calibrate asap so when we play together we don't get *the games with 1 new/uncalibrated player and 1 5k player partied together. Smurfs are also rampant in that gametype bc it pairs parties with uncalibrated players against eachother. Ranked will give much more balanced games tbh.
Grant being EG now is hilarious to me for some reason, and it makes 100% sense for both parties. 1 step closer to retiring from Walmart.
Swiggle 1 Me 2 Miles 3 ?? 4 Tamland 5 P ez wins Unless we get ragetop who goes mid as 2, and then feeds and abandons before 20min

I really really want some PA nerfs. Not really OP but is very strong and is so easy to play even people that suck at this game can carry matches with her.
Also Dragon Knight is just the ultimate solo queue my team sucks fuck it I'll do everything myself- mid. Super strong in lane, can solo push very early, and doesn't fall off too much late game that you have no shot.
I’ll be playing a few games shortly. Channel four news team, assemble! miles RonBurgundy skiedfrillet Handcuffed swiggle jplaYa Skiddly
i really hate solo queuing dota. i'm not sure how y'all do it. i calibrated at 230 mmr. :/ i had two games in particular when i was calibrating where i was playing with someone who was smurfing at a significantly lower skill bracket than they should have been (along with smurfs who were just somewhat better, as is standard): https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3487635343 https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3487705330 and since then, i've lost every solo game and i've had ridiculous teams. first game: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3489553721 teammate insta-locks AM first and rushes a Vlads. never finishes his BF second game: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3491638363 i realize no one supports in these games, so i try it. but i try transitioning to core because my cores suck. against a MK and a BS, no one builds a pike or a force staff (we have a viper and a sniper). but two heroes have a daedalus and a third has a crystalys. this was the "closest" game of all of these, but no one pushed after we'd defend high ground. it was just a long game; not close in the sense that we had a chance at winning. third game: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3491727229 i tried jungling because i didn't want to support (we had a rubick) and everyone else grabbed a lane. our mid PA lost to their mid BS. their mid BS went 19/0. fourth game: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3491767813 we had a techies. i had to lane with him. he mined the creep waves. and he went 0/21. i don't understand how you're supposed to win these games unless i play a super hard carry like AM, PL, Troll, or something and I just fuck my team and farm or 30-40 minutes and hope that we have buildings left.
You need to stay away from ranked play. Focus on normal modes, learn new heroes and roles, and get the basics down. When you’re ready, start a new account and recalibrate. 230 is too low, not worth the time and frustration getting out of that range.
