Pain my brother. I just watched this today, then queued as AM tonight. It was one of my best games on this hero, dodged the enemy, traded with the enemy offlane (LC + SB), bought myself regen, and although I received a ton of pressure in my safelane, I still managed to hit WB, PT + BF @ 15:00. I wish it could have been faster but I'm not the beston this hero. After that I pressured the map safely, farmed up Manta + Linken's, then proceeded to be a pain the ass prioritizing creeps over towers and playing not too close, but not too far from my team. Managed to carry my team by itemizing Nullifier + Disperser for the enemy Windrunner & Pugna. Finished the game at minute 45 w/score of 10-2-9, 468cs, 755gpm & 1,188xpm. Your videos are fucking lifechanging and appreciate them very much.
Good content, but it will be much better if the person being coached actually asks questions instead of saying "alright, alright" to everything you say
The biggest thing i notice about low mmr players is they never punish people when they use abilities. Like legion and pudge use hook and odds and the am and venom just stand there lol.
in low elo your team will start to cry if you make diffusal blade in AM. They act like pro players and starts to flame at you if you don't play their way lol.
Skadi is really good on AM especially in lower bracket. Where people mostly have high damage and low durability. So in low bracket I mostly go for stats items instead of high damage. AM hp is so low he can die I jump the key here is surviving. If you survive long you will win the fights.
id rather watch higher mmr replays where the players know the principals. magina is my most played hero with almost 400 games and lots of stuff you explained in the video is my daily basis. It's still nice to see that my thinking process is similar to a high immortal coach. good work tho!
Im currently learning how to play antimage, is there any scenario where a harpoon would be worth it? Ive had some games where the enemies would run away when i showed up. I didnt realize that diffusal stacks on the mana burn so it didnt buy it, thatll likely be my next choice if i get into a game like that. Adding to this, i was thinking harpoon due to the enemies having lots of slows and i wanted the gap close + guaranteed auto while also being able to save my blink skill.
@@Fate025yeah basher is the best item to get instead of harpoon because harpoon simply falls off during late game where as abysal blade goes through bkb and with his natural attack speed the lock down is easier to go through some heroes. Harpoon is only an exception where you are snowballing the enemy hard. and when you are snowballing u will have the comfort to build any build that you want.
how long did you play dota for? if you are quite new then its alright.. you will get used to it if you have like 2000 games already then i would be worried
If you are new,, you just need to play more of the game. Getting the experience every single games help the future you making the best decision based on what you have experienced
Hey, don't stress out. Watching the video helps to understand what you should pay attention to, but not all is as crucial. I would say, the most important thing to pay attention to, is where is the enemy mid/roamer. Show on lanes lanes when you have the info, dont show on lanes when no info. Once this is automated, you start thinking about new aspects like how much mana left etc.
Ironically, this exact sentiment tells me you're probably the one who's bad. Did you check your AM's item timings? If he just got BF online, why are you trying to force him into a team fight??? If he has half a manta, you want him to go into a team fight to die and delay it by 3+ minutes??? You don't take bad fights and expect your carry to just show up and save you. You fish for picks and exploit the space on map or you play around your carry when his timings hit to get stuff done. Whatever it is you think you're doing, it's wrong and you and the rest of your team are griefing your carry and then blaming him when you throw the game.
The problem with hard carrys like am void dusa tb is they need so many items and offer nothing until like 10 minutes if not longer. Smart teams will stop you by pushing to end or just hunting you non stop
Youre telling everyone ure 2k mmr without saying it. It all depends highly on the matchups and what not, you cant just make general statements like that. Every game is a different game. Sometimes TB cries in lane and sometimes you cant touch him at all, same goes with every hero u mentioned here. Medusa, am.. they all can pressure very hard at times
I really don't understand not being present for runes when the waves meet in the respective safelanes where you want them to without the need to block.
@@rexmoore2234it’s precisely cause ur am ur not supposed to leave the lane that early, am by default is alr a weak hero post laning phase, if u wanna make this play it better be a VERY free kill or a VERY good reason to give up a creep wave for
Plus pain already explained in the video. You don't contribute anything to the fight but you are risking your HP. Unless you are fighting 5v1 and you get a free assist gold, you will take damage in a rune contest and that costs you regen, which can eventually cost you creeps. As said before, the risk to reward ratio just isn't worth it.
you can get low hp whitch would grieff your lain, you can be forced to skill blink that would grieff your lain even more, and you can die if you would be baited by team to get kill by enemy off or all of the above whitch would basically means the lain would be over before it started, there is no point in contesting first gold rune as AM, same with LS, FV, i am not talking about rune in your jungle, if you have plus 1,2 heroes shure do it but deciding to go to enemy side to try to get 40 gold as a carry that can win or lose the game based of off first 10 min of the game is stupid.

Just get a basher instead, can upgrade to abyssal
The bash proc also stops TPs, breaks channeled spells (wd death ward)

Im about 20 min in and I guess I just need to quit dota. Im just not capable of making these decisions and realizations in game under the pressure...
just practice and get comfortable with it - like with everything in life. remember they didn't build Rome in one day 😊

i failed to understand his point on aghanims. does that mean don't get one until you get at least diffusal blade?

AM players in Archon and lower are so bad. Hitting jungle creeps while 4v5 60 second teamfights are going on instead of pushing lanes
