This game: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1061737325

I am proud of it! I think I did really well, and there were a couple of arrows here and there that I was really really proud of. I screwed up quite a lot around mid game and a little early agme but all in all I did good. Was playing a kinda semi-support roaming Mirana. AND GUESS WHAT! This is the game that brought me to 50% winrate with Mirana, I was way down at 30% before but I've really stepped back up. Please tell me what you thought was good and what I can improve on!

I see you played with Xyrus! His critique would probably be the most accurate, since he was playing alongside you and most likely watching you play all the way.


Anyway, this looks pretty decent. You're only level 15 and your KD is less than ideal, but that's because you were roaming and doing some support business. I would recommend bottle on a roaming hero like Bounty Hunter or Mirana because of the really good regeneration, since you'd probably be near the runes all the time when you're roaming. I also see that you only have 10 assists. I personally think that you should participate a little more in super early ganks involving nicely-timed Sacred Arrows and also dying less in general by being behind your teammates (like Timbersaw) during fights, since you're the squishiest one on your team. You can still easily land your arrows from that distance, so it won't ruin your effectiveness.



This is my advice before I watch the replay. I will revise the critique once I do.

Good luck and have fun playing Mirana, Bunkansee :)




EDIT:
How do I retrieve the replay using only the match ID :3?

ok ... here we go.

you lost first blood because you didnt focus. you and oracle were hitting jak while xyrus was hitting the lower health venge. if you all focused venge u would have got first blood.

4 mins... nice set up good kill wp.

7 mins in and u havent rotated out. tsk tsk tsk tsk. at 4 mins u should have looked for that arrow mid night time lets you go for dumber shots without worrying about them juking it.

nice kill again. wp.

8 mis. good arrow on ss. pity it didnt get the kill. communicate with your mid on that one. if she had had more mana u might ahve got the kill.

9mins in .... were you lagging? u ran to lane and stopped. ur player perspective has you just looking at the tower? u missed the chance for a great arrow on ss. then u arrowed the magic immune ss in chrono. dont know what happened there.

9:30 till 11 mins ... u just ... ran around ... u didnt get ls mid when u could have. u then tp'd bottom ...reason?
NOTE: XYRUS WHAT THE HELL 6 times i saw u just sitting there twiddling your thumbs ... FARM BOY FARM.

ok from then on between 11 mins and 25. its just timbersaw snowballing (they had nothing against burst magic damage).

points

-26 mins... nice arrow good clutch prediction.
-30-33 good rosh fight. save ur second arrow for the chrono though.


NOTES FOR BUKAN.

- dont wander aimlessly ... always have a point to your movement.
- as pos 5 mirana u did good but since ur pos 5 ur going to be a bit starved so save your skills and mana. you had basically 3 set ups for your arrow. u should really miss any unless those set ups arent there. i counted 17 times there was a perfect arrow opportunity and i knew u saw it too because u checked... and because you threw off anh arrow before hand ... it was on cooldown.
- ur prediction is good but tooo "forced" let it be more relaxed... dont feel like u have to get the arrow off... if u dont think u will get it ..... dont fire. i work off the 70/30 formula.
70% certain 30% maybe.
- the big positive ... u contributed to the team well. oracle needed pos 4 they needed some pressure which u provided. u needed space.
- the big negative... move with determination. a good 15 mins of the game i could say u were doing nothing. ur transitioning between lanes? check times? can i stack while im moving? do i have time to take a camp? ok ive just thrown an arrow of bottom they know im here ok time to go mid. rotate more. wait for setup so u can secure the arrow dont feel the need to get DAT ARRROW... use it wisely.


all in all

wp dude ur improving :D

Thanks for the help! I admit, I'm still not great at roaming yet. I feel I am afflicted with "I have to hit this arrow" disorder, where I take a long time trying to aim my arrow for like 3 mins haha. I was lagging a lot this game, since I have just recently had to switch to my laptop to play, which is not very good. Thanks a lot for the review, I'll try to roam a little more frequently and try to not sit around for too long trying to determine trajectory and speed of the arrow xD

But yeah, thanks a lot I really appreciate that you took time to watch the replay and everything!



To Porygon:

Yeah, my KDA wasn't ideal, especially the Assist part, but out of all of my Mirana games, this is probably up there in the top 10 or whatever. I think my biggest problem is that I try way too hard to make sure I hit arrows and end up sitting around for 3 mins trying to position the arrow perfectly :d

Thanks for the help!
