Dota 2 valve support

Dota 2 valve support

There is a very very simple reason that people dont play support, and valve just seems to be adding to this problem with the new “fast queue” system. Within the brackets you have people that do nothing but watch youtube video’s, play solo dota (not solo queue, big difference explained later) and individuals that are going to que for whatever they want, and play whatever hero, as if it were an unranked game, to the downside of the team. You STILL get games where its a huge matchup change, Legend 4’s vs archon 1’s in mid, and you get people that do NOTHING but push forward with core roles and learn absolutely nothing. You can easily see the people that were carried, and its borderline impossible anymore to increase in any semblance.

I personally main support. Now, due to the influx of cancerous “web tutorials” (Dota alchemy) that really push for people to play CORE roles. You see a ton of people that play core, watch nothing but the “6 rampage miracle mid” videos, then go into the game thinking they will repeat the exact process. Have 0 mapsense, 0 gamesense, ignore the entire team, do NOTHING but feed, then flame people when they were out of position, and unable to farm. You have absolutely 0 metrics to actually rate the supports, who regardless of situations, unless they play that solo dota I mentioned before, its an EASY loss. So what do these “tutorials” say to get out of the trench that you have created. Thats right. PLAY CORE! Canceling your metric for getting those bodies to play support.

Dota 2 is a team game. It is based around 5 indivuduals, working together, playing specified roles/positions in order to best achiee the victory of destroying the enemy ancient. BUUUUUT. Thanks to the idea behind 90% of the information out there, and a GRAND portion of the player base. They refuse to play together. YOu have individuals with no ingame knowledge, no mapsense, and NO desire to actually work with ANYBODY on the team. Because its all about THEM. its about the KD ratio, its about THEIR networth. So if they run forward, get 3 kills, but feed the enemy team a 1k gold bounty, they gotta flame everybody else, because they didnt say anything. They just, did it. But, they got their farm! Following this mad dive, they proceed to jungle for the next 30 minutes, gaining zero ground, even if the team gets a fight, drops 4 enemies, loses 2, but cant push the tower because they are way to weak. But wheres this core player? Thats right! in YOUR jungle, farming the small creep camp, because he needs another 2k for his radiance. While he’s playing juggernaut. Granted, he already farmed a battlefury, and finally a maelstrom after letting the enemy team drop 4 of your towers. But, its somebody elses fault. The supports BUST their asses, if they play the game, and instead of gaining ANYTHING, they constantly LOSE MMR because of things like this. Because the core will have 200 hp, see a stun hit the enemy, and think Oh, I can still rush into the two with full HP, because I have. this one ability. They play alone, they refuse to think that anybody in the game might have idea’s. They refuse to see where anybody might try to make a play. Try to get better. Try to WORK with the other players on their team. THAT is solo dota. Dota 2 valve support I had a Divine 2 friend of mine tell me what “dota alchemy says is to play a support that can solo carry late game.” So, play a support, that can play. solo. in a team game. GREAT ADVICE.

If you wonder valve, why NOBODY ♥♥♥♥ing wants to play support, its because of this right here. The core players, think they are 6k mmr down in the 2k bracket, and refuse to listen to anybody. They refuse to play WITH anybody. And ranked is just a joke because “they dont care about ‘this’ account” and just made it to smurf. You implement a system to allow people to get into games “faster” with tickets by queing for all 5 positions. Why? You think thats gunna change it? You think “lets reward these guys for putting up with all the toxic cancer that is the avg core player in the game right now, by letting them get into a game faster!” Yes, because all I want to do, is lose my MMR for the chance to que FASTER into the next game with these same people that have 0 idea of what teamwork is. Get rid of the fast que system, and create a new bloody metric for supports. Supports play a different game than the cores, and so when you wind up having 2 people, sac everything in the game, for sake of vision, to secure kills for the core, to make space. But those 3 people wound up finding the queue button by sheer dumb luck blindly flailing around. Great way to make people “want to play” the role.
