June 2015 Report, why did u climb since 2014? in General Discussion

    This year is half way to being over already. Did u meet ur New Year's Dota resolutions? Did u climb? Did u get better at dota? only ur mmr can show ur skill improvement (?)!

    I climed well in March. I think that was around the time I got more interested in dota and it actually turned into more than a hobby. I started reading up more on guides+theorycrafting, I started posting dumb things on db forums and I played more frequently w voice chat. Or possibly it was that the current patch favoured my playstyle/heroes. Soon, I reached almost 4,4k solo and saw some good results. That was great anyways.

    Today, I've dropped 400 mmr since May 21st and am almost on the edge to "high skill". It is a very frustrating experience, because I havent had this low of a mmr since March. Sometimes I blame teammates. Sometimes I blame valves 50% forced wr. But most times it was probably my own fault, getting too toxic in my head, giving up too fast. Im not ignorantly confident like these new up-and-coming dunning krugers, who grind mmr w 1 or 2 heroes all the way to 5k.

    For the first time I want to take a break from dota. I got recently so tired of it. I want to play casual stuff like hearthstone or hots to relax.

    I know this is irrelevant to most, esp. those above my mmr. I'm a little bit stuck and think that is why im sharing this scrub noob shit. Maybe someone made the same experience and wants to share, too. It would mean a lot to me right now. I dont ask for advice, because I know I am trash. If anything, I ask for motivation to go on.

          i climbed 1000 MMR , started in January at 2.1, got to 3.1 in late February, stopped playing ranked for all of March, and decided to play only pubs for a month cause i didn't want to be like every typical 3Ker who can only play less than half the cast of heroes, and that's exactly what I did. I learned 97% of the heroes, and kind of made sure i knew them well enough to play them in ranked and still win, not just well enough to play "against bots" or "pubs" you know? Then i dropped from 3.1 to 2.5 SOME HOW, i felt like my teams were more shit than USUAL that month, not to mention my headset broke that month, my bird died, i was seriously on tilt cause my life is usually great. Then last month (May) i went from 2.5 to now 3.2, and hopefully still climbing, expecting to be 4K by the end of summer, seems easy. This is my first and only account, cause i could smurf to 4-5K but that's cheating, and lazy.
