I said viewers, not players... I didn't mean that your KDR won't be enough to win a game, I meant that posting your own KDR in the forums won't be beneficial to anyone as it is purely for your self satisfaction, thus it is a waste of space.

Also, killing the enemies does not win you the game, it merely serves as a step to make it easier for you to win the game. A higher KDR does benefit the team, but it does not single handedly decide the outcome, nor does a high KDR justify a low winrate.


Posted my KDR to this forum backed up my first statement.... KDR is everything. Killing enemies gives your team the opportunity to push and destroy towers and buildings. You can only do that effectively when you kill the enemy players. That concept is the basis of Dota 2 and most MOBA games. A high KDR does benefit your team by showing that you as a person have not let the enemy gain EXP or gold of your person and you have prevented the enemy from getting gold and exp for the time that that enemy has been dead for. Make sense? 45% W/L ratio for playing Single player match making is pretty good, keep in mind that I rarely play a carry.

If you are playing your role right, regardless of the role, you will statistically win more than lose.


Atlas you and I both know this is not true. In the end if the enemy carry kills your whole team and you do not have a carry to fight back then you will most likely lose the game. It's the Dota way.

No, you can't get matched against me since you're not in my skill bracket, bring proof to sustain your affirmation.



I guess you're right in that I don't hang around in the low skill bracket often. Except when I am in low priority for getting reported when my internet is unstable. I will try to find that replay when we played against each other.

You carried the games against Omega pretty well, indeed.

Myself + Numeta and 3 other Ringers we picked up from DotaFire that had no previous experience with. If it was a clan TaX match vs Omega then that would have been a great match.

I had a 52% winrate before and I pretty much exclusively played supports. There are people who pretty much exclusively do things other than carry in very high tier play, carrying doesn't win games. In fact, as a ganker mid, it's probably the easiest way to achieve a high win rate since you have the largest impact on a game in the early-mid stages. Carries can't carry if you gank them well enough.

Look at this guy: http://dotabuff.com/players/145389281

He does nothing but support as Venge and has a 95% winrate.

Win-rate has nothing to do with role. There are people who do nothing but lock a carry every game that have a 40% winrate, and there are people who pick smart and what the team needs every game that have a 60% winrate.

I stand corrected. But usually in my case, my carry will feed, or build the wrong items, or get caught which in turn would result in a lose.

Because you're in the low skill bracket and you get matched with bad players of your level, simple as that.

Hades4u,

Have some respect for yourself as a Dotafire Moderator. Please refer to my Night Stalker guide and you can see that most if not all my games are top tier MM bracket games.

LOL and that is how BloodSeeker is suppose to be played....
