    Guys can i ask more details about these skill brackets? i mean i play with 500+ gpm in my normal games and even get 700 to 800 gpm but why is it im still in Normal bracket? I wanna get to at least High Skill Bracket, tried to spam troll warlord on my new smurf and still in normal skill bracket https://www.dotabuff.com/players/405461191

    (I just used this acc to post the topic cuz the acc i gave u the id has less than 10 games xD)

      Wow smurfing for a full year. That's some great shit you've got going on for you.

        Get even better
        Grind mmr, smurfing won't get you anywhere, 700 gpm especially in pub games is not even that good (coming from a guy who consistently shit out 700 gpm on RANKED matches)
        Focus on getting good, VHS will come once you deserve it

          49% Winrate. You lose more games than you win. So probably you're fine with NS bracket anyway. Afaik 3.2k mmr and on is HS. When I play solo (3k mmr) I get into NS, when I play in party (3.3k mmr) it's HS.

            I wasnt smurfing the whole year, i just started smurfing a few weeks ago

              Well if you have a main why don't you grind? Find some friends to grind with/against, friendly competition is always good as a reason to excel.

                    I've been playing Dota 2 for a year and something like 3 months.

                    6 months into the game, playing with chill friends which I played mainly support with- 1400 MMR calibrated.

                    Floated up and down +-200 for a few months since I was too scared to play Ranked again.

                    3 months~ after I discovered Dotabuff and saw how everyone I played with (me included) was shit, got good I hit 2.8k MMR.

                    A month after that I got 3k but got ultra tilted and lost tons of games in a row, player improvement was stuck.

                    Right now rose up to 2.9k again but real world shit has got me tied down, looking forward to summer where I can hopefully play Dota 2 as intense as I did a few months before.

                      I'm not a good player by any means but if I just sat with my 1400 MMR and kept on making smurfs trying to reach a higher MMR I would be even more stuck now, in sub 2k.

                      doc joferlyn simp

                        Watching replays of high MMR plays is tiring, analyzing your own games even more so. I think the best way to improve is to ask a better player than yourself according to what he sees that you are doing wrong (probably a lot, at least in my case) and focus on the weaknesses that you want to improve on as a player, whether you want to farm faster as a carry or have better map awareness as a support.

                          It's not about the time spent playing - though it should help

                          it's about skill. G i t G u d

                            My advice would be to just play - play heroes you enjoy, have fun and do your best towards a victory. I used to exclusively play only normal MM and I'd occasionally get VHS without even trying to get there (and that's with a lot of breaks, I stopped playing Dota as much).

                            Lately I've been trying out ranked and honestly, I think just normal VHS MM is better. I did my original MMR calculation when ranked came out, got 3.6k, dropped down to 3.2k over the last couple of days. I know I haven't been performing at my best, but seriously, there are some dumb fellas out there.

                              Been playing the game for 8 months to be exact
                              5 months into the game my first account had 1.6k mmr
                              Since i cannot accept 1.6k as an mmr of mine cuz all of my cousins or relatives who plays dota had 4k above
                              i decided to make a new account
                              after 3 months ( cuz i took a vacation for 1 month )
                              i got 2.6k mmr on this acc, and now im trying to make a new smurf again probably will be my last smurf acc

                                  Well, 3k is the new 1k they say.
                                  I've been playing good on most of my games especially on the new smurf acc i made tho

                                                      i'd say anything below 600 even in a losing game is pretty much playing trash

                                                      oof

                                                        what if you play support or perhaps offlane?

                                                        oof

                                                          btw coincidentally an offlane troll comeback https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2910027011 my game that got me into HS (my first fresh game on this acc)

You get mmr by winning games. You lose mmr by losing games. You dont gain mmr by smurfing, you usually just drop back to ur real mmr if u calibrate too high. Just get a better winrate by not being trash like me and ull gain mmr.

                                                                                                        Fuck off. U r in every single game u lose and every game u win. It wont always be ur fault but there is always something u can do to help win, and having ur cancer ass mentality wont get u anywhere
