as long as u climb ur mmr up, the mentality would be much mature as those high mmr don't wanna lose. they will still choose necesary role eg. last person will choose support if nobody does.

True, but it's so hard to climb. I was rated and 2.7k and even went down to 2.1k.

It is so demoralizing sometimes. Win 2 and lose the next 3.

I've started new account and some friends have started the game as well, so now we have minimum 3 stacks. So much more enjoyable and we can screw each otherl no hard feelings and have fun. I've left MMR since. Less stressful haha.

Not true. The trench mentality exists at all levels. I've played in 3, 4, and 5k and I can say that idiots exist at all tiers. You just have to grin and bear it.

I was truly disappointed when I went into VHS bracket. Same shit, different name.

I prefer the good old Garena / Battlenet player behavior . At least they scold in 1Malaysia language. Hate it when ppl start talking tagalog in Dota 2.

my history in SEA doto

calibrated @ 4.2k

pre6.83

tips
when you meet talkative teammates who commented on every single picks, and doesnt pick supports or whatever, just ignore and do your parts.

if you pick carry and none of them choose support, just play safe, and do jungle farming if lanes are too hard until you have viable items to join fights.

once your team is start to kill, or at least pull back gold / xp difference, all the negative players will start to become more cooperative > go on to win.

when you meet teammates who pick all the cores role, you can either go strong support , or go techie , or go self-sustainable heroes, and farm patiently and you should be fine mid game, assuming all your teammates dont die.

OP pub heroes in 6.84
-spirit breaker [ early / mid game very strong gank]
-phantom lancer [easy to dodge skills with doppel / manta , diffusal / basher / butterfly / heart ]
-windranger (more on solo-ish kill) [ 1v1 never lose ]
-spectre [ late game ultra carry ]
-leshrac [ team must hv synergized heroes to make it work, otherwise could be too soft ]
-SF [ eul + dagger still viable on heroes that don't have much escape mechanism ]
[check black^ gameplay on 6.84 SF 1k gpm xpm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KWKrJd16K4]
-techie offlane [ super strong if you know how to use ]

TLDR;
- ignore pinoy, viets, or whatever trashtalk teammates, mute them, and play your game. if no support on your carry, play safe in lane, avoid rune fights on river.

- 8 out of 10 Sea games you will meet assholes, who either writes road to 2k, or RIP MMR or whatever shit, and at the beginning they will curse or exhibit negative mentalities , but when things start to go well (provided you are resilient enough to avoid trolls by muting or ignoring them), things will be okay and most of the time - win the game.

- in 6.84, your opponent team could lead in kills by 10-25 and you could counter them a few kills and XP / Gold swing will start to favour your site.

- avoid picking carries that have no ultra late game presence.
