Any tips for ranking up?

[JKL]

Still guardian for almost a year now, doing my best to carry my team and end up losing, So tired and frustrating on this bracket, Any tips?

[Vinz]

Don't focus yourself only on a number or medal..

Learn 2-3 heroes and play only them..

Farewell

[Ironfist]

go mid, try new heroes

[will i am]

firt muted all chat, go mid and play only 3 or 4 meta hero on mid, thats all

[Dinsdale]

Try other roles, you can carry your team in any position in that bracket. Learn farming patterns, learn better warding spots for early and mid game. Play heroes that trade well in lane so you win, players in that bracket dont know how to recover well. You can win a game in the first 15 mins by just being good at basics and mechanics. Keep your hero pool small for each role. No need to experiment.

Don't focus to much in your mmr, focus on getting better and the +25 will eventually come. Everyone from herald to mid archon is OBJECTIVELY not great at this game and the randomness wont really stop until you get close to 3500 and ancient.

Play in a 5-stack with people who you trust.

Besides that, Valve has made it increasingly more difficult to rank up in solo que because the rank confidence system ensures that every match has an extreme variance in skill which makes games even more imbalanced than ever before. The changes to 7.33 has especially made solo carrying nearly impossible, because the changes to the maps, items, and overall timings of the match strongly encourage deathball at all stages of the game; if your team refuses to group by minute 5, then games snowball out of control, and it is trivial for a winning team to neutralize a hyper carry like Alchemist or Meepo.

Trust me learn mid,pick a mobile fast farmer hero like Puck or Tinker,and learn a farming {ENLACE ELIMINADO}pattern,in low mmr games people just dont know how to counter some heros,they just dont {ENLACE ELIMINADO}know,in my opinion you can solo the game if your a midlaner with good farm,went from herald to cruis and going archon,wish ya the best luck!

Buy an immortal account and derank till you reach the badlands of archon-divine even. Then you are fked repeat. Game is for immortal rank and pro scene only to be honest. EVerywhere else it's crappy.

I kinda agree,the game just seems off in lower ranks

[76561199137441380]

If archons is lower, just open a new account, easy archon 110 hour

[76561199137441380]

if you will play and rank up Valve will return you to your original secret rank. your secret rank will remain the same. Valve doesn't like to do any new innovation, so it doesn't matter they if you're always in the same place. "MMR recalibration available" use this button on it and you'll be back where you started. Valve didn't plan for player skill to improve.
just open a new account and make a very good 100 games. no more choice

Are you still in herald?

[Kampfkekskrieger EXP Folk Master]

the process is slower. but not out of function. ts a long road... you can do so many things all that life time you spend...

enough life time to get fame and glory for your land on the way

look at the big men in history, and read their books, what made them great;
I took frederick the great, or bismarck; they wrote down their road upwards and how they became there;

you have the luck to have the sources from former lifes to be example for you.
you dont need to grind it the first pioneer of mankind you knw'?

wrong. Impossible to carry a game as a pos 4 or 5, even more so if you pick an actual support hero. Only way to solo win games is with a hard carry and getting lucky with farm/enemy feeding/game lasting long enough.

YEAHHH!!! Its been a while. Did you finally unblock me after I routinely proving you wrong?

Or better yet, did you finally get a functional understanding of statistics?

[Zagryzaec]

I don't think I have been blocking you. Also you proved yourself wrong after the sure you were referring to updated it's statistics to correspond site that I was referring to. That should have give you the understanding on who is right but it seems it didn't.

Anyways, the guy who ask for advice in this thread to rank up is guardian. Are you at least crusader by now? Because your tips make me thinking very hard about wether I skipped few very important patch and wether we even talk about dota because hypercarry is a lol term.
