either u pick a very versatile hero or u pick first before they pick...else its almost certain ur being a supporter...
well,i normally let them pick all only i pick...dont mind training different role

no such problems at 4k mmr bracket, the diff between 4k and 3k mmr bracket is so damn big! SRS

im at 4k but still sometimes there are some retards- -"
and the saddest case most retards tend to pick carries

There will always be retards, regardless of your bracket. This is why its important to add the good players you meet.

yeah haha thats why its hard to climb the solo mmr, sometimes when u r doing well they will tend to spoil your game.

yep...for solo,its hard to climb,party...get good members then its better and more possible

typical public players like to pick some carries and then they'll start farming the early game and feeding for the rest of the game, so better not play a solo mmr when you're not in a good mood, else prepare urself for the worst wrath of ur life!

I have found the secret to increasing your solo MMR!

Viper.

Just don't building a f*cking Vanguard and you'll be fine.

I still get a lot of retards who pick sniper when enemy got burst dmg. and fail as safe lane farmer.

i was from 3.8k drop till 2.9k...
and now finally i slowly climb back from 2.9k to 3.4k... =.=
it's possible for climbing in solo....
just make sure you're the mid player and keep ganking the whole damn game.

and party ranked match... 3.7k drop till 3.3k... cause always teamup as 2 person and join the team mmr...
no luck trying.

solo MMR is so hard ... playing with people who just pick carry and still they cant win. Who else have to be support when all of them picks carry.... then again if pick carry .. they too pick carry.. Solo ranking is totally fcuked up.. i think MMR does not let you play with the same bracket but mix bracket of highs and lows to balance the team fight.

solo kinda more to luck...and of cos a bit of skill- -"
stuck at 4-4.1k

i teach u la...most easy... is create a new account, play till lvl 13
and stacks with your 4 friends for 10 games until u get 5k mmr...

Im a 4.6k MMR solo player and climbing
To get your mmr high or i can say, not dropping drastically, if your mmr is at 4.1k+ you should nt be worry about the carry or the mid player. You should worry more on the support role, at 4.1k mmr, everyone wants to become the mid and carry player, to win a game, sacrifice your mid and carry and just go for support if you think your support role is also actually good.

Of cause they might blame you on the lose game (Support roles always get the blame), but a real mature gamer will not blame you. just do your best supporting the lanes .

even at 4.6k MMR i still get stupid teammates that feeds on their lane, flame, complaint etc,
but just ignore that lane if you see he is on a lane with a not so strong late game.
Support your late game if this circumstences happen.

To be able to secure a win game in Solo mmr, Support must know the placement of wards, smokes, ganks, because when coming to ganking, supporter roles are the leader in this specialised ganking. Therefore call for gank if needed , ward if needed , smoke ganks if winning wars to secure your win and not throwing them, and Happy Dota gaming !

yea...thats why i seldom go carry now lol...
rather be semi/ support...as they are the main ones that actually control the game flow...support that sux ,carry wont be able to catch up with oppo carry's farm

I think emphasize certain heroes like Lich, DP, Zeus, Necro can really bring early gank-ing and push advantage to the game. Just own the opponent real hard and it snowball.

or go pugna tormented for early tower down,make ur carryfat

Solo MMR is mostly about luck..
my fren was once 5k, now dropped to 4.7k ish.. and he gave up on it. lol

On topic, i think a strong mid will win half of the game.
By strong mid, it can be tempo controller, or a semi hard carry.
Pick base on situation, if ur team have more than 2 carry, go tempo controller like a quas wex hunting invoker, qop, etc. Even slark mid with ganking item will do well.

If ur team have 1 carry, and u have no faith in that carry. try picking semi hard carry, example SF on radiant ( I love dis ), stack nc while at mid. Very easy farmed up. Or even the new meta sniper mid, it's good.

For tempo controller, gank more. Don't keep farm, create space for ur carries, makes enemy focus on u.
For semi-hard carry, only participate in war that u think ur team can win or have an edge, don't force fight too often. Get your core items up.

And all you need if just one little player to spoil ur whole plan by feeding here and there the whole game lol.

as long as it's not too much.. it should be okay..
else.. join the feeds.
