    Been playing for ten years but have been waiting for something like this for a long, long time. These kinds of topics are just too fun and honestly I've been having a sort of identity crisis with my preferred role and how that relates to how the game itself has been changing.

      As someone who spent most of my years playing pos 5 and 4. Now in my cynical years I've opted to go mid or pos 3 if that's not available. Just don't wanna have to trust others to get the job done and i like to just jump in and get the job done. Huskar, Bristle, Timber, and Sniper or QoP if I'm feeling toxic. I'd rather lose knowing I suck and need to get better, rather than feel like I did great and just had a bad carry.

    definitely one of my favorite videos i've seen. amongst my friends i'm always the one stuck playing the hard support basically in every game, but with dota 2 it's such a slogfest cuz my friends really aren't all that great and never understand what we should do and what they shouldn't do even if i explain it so i've taken more toward pos 4 in more recent times and my god it feels like i'm doing way more than i ever did as pos 5..but then again, it's really just because i can actually do some initiating myself and enable my team rather than saving them 99% of the time and then them just dying anyways cuz they go back in

      That guy can turn into an actual pos1 raid boss if built correctly. The DMG passive from atrophy is very tempo dependent; imagine having around 300 damage after killing at least two heroes and a bunch of creeps, the survivors may try to focus on you or run away because your auto attack can hit like you have a divine rapier.

    I used to always play mid like 7-8 years ago, recently got back into the game and fell in love with legion. I would always try to play offlane and was haemorrhaging mmr. With the new patch I tried to switch to pos 1 and spam void, things got even worse. I finally switched back to playing midlane and i'm currently on a 12 game win streak. Its crazy how even after 3-4 hundred games in other positions, I can still only play pos2. I guess I'm just the main character.

    • @jayzenstyle
      @jayzenstyle 2 года назад +1

      Midlaner definitely feels like you're the MC lol. I remember being that person that everyone relies on and has to go to other lanes to start doing character arcs and anime fights.
      It's definitely not much of a 'fight' when OD got enough farm after 10 minutes.

  • @XxDotApRoxX69
    @XxDotApRoxX69 7 месяцев назад

    Pos 2 will also appeal to the leader/manager personality type. Not the most talented but the most knowledgeable. Sets up the team for success. Needs to recognize which lane will need gank help and which will need anti-gank protection. Plays around objectives. For the first 20 minutes pos 2 makes all the calls.

      This is late, but this is a mood honestly. I would spam position 5 before (mainly cm) often times ending up doing more to the game than the carry. I reached a point where I got fed up with relying on my cores when I was herald. Now I am crusader (not as impressive as you but it is still something I’m happy about seeing I only played rank for a year half of it as support). To explain I just was using the cm ulti at the right times more than anything the greediest I ever got was getting aghs on certain games.

Also when it comes to dumb cores I often realize based on my experience e people have bad days where they underperform no matter the position. Seeing the moment you as a support either forget to pull once or maybe forget a ward somewhere and so on or as a carry get too greedy when it comes to kills or do reckless plays people start snowballing the hate often which just gets carried over to the next games.
