General DiscussionWho do you boost with?

necro mid. I also like viper mid but clueless teammates can even find a way to ruin the momentum of a snowballing viper.

You only play mid necro then? I tried to add zeus over the last few weeks to my mid hero pool but as I said I am just bad at carry and can't seem to make it work.

^^ same here, necro mid is deadly. Played last 3 games and 3 wins, lol. Road to high skill.

I dont think you play any heroes at a very high level.

Holy fuck. 4.7k mmr games and 1k mmr. Do you only have 1 hand or whats your problem?

I boost with cookie

I go mid and use Lina, storm, ember, sf, of, but I can manage even picking other things like viper, huskar, Zeus, etc. In 1k basically it doesn't matter how good u r at the hero, my skill at any of these heroes varies and how good they r in the meta varies as well. What matters is your basic mechanics and how good you are at the position in general.

You don't even have jungle role hero,what a peasant.

You aren't gonna be in any pro screen,just play for fun and random shit please

I don't expect to be in any pro screen ever licetea. I can enigma jungle if it pleases you though? Ever since the jungle nerf I haven't seen you playing ranked much anymore as well. This is simply a hobby.

I can easily win with my 4 teammate (yeah, LAN party) with almost 80%+ winrate.
If i'm with my friend, i am pos 1/2 player with 600+ avg.
Then it turns into hell when i solo queu.
I always support when solo, because f**k that carry with 300 gpm xpm avg.

P.S : we got from 2k to 3k party mmr less than a month (with play only weekend), party are much better.

Mid : tinker / invoker
Safelane : spec or terrorblade (but since it's nerfed recenlty, i changed him with sven)
Offlane : centa / axe (blink cc type)

I play broken heroes lol

Ursa. But he can't hit towers.

Cookie

most efficient boosting heroes are:

MID: ARC, MEEPO, SF, TINKER
OFFLANE: BROOD, LEGION
SAFE: SLARK, TERRORBLADE
SUPPORT: lmao what kind of an idiot boosts with support
ROAMER: lmao what kind of an idiot boosts with roamer

Cough cough excuse me? Im frank and i got to 6k spamming riki
?????????

Best combination = cookie + random

Well, cookie has a fair point, but we all know he is simply an arc/sk spammer. XD

@fritz invoker is kinda weak atm and tinker is extremely annoying but not quite broken.

I appreciate all the replies just was curious who everyone feels most comfortable with for informational purposes. Honestly surprised I don't see jugg mentioned as popular as he seems.

Cookie, no AM?

Am requires too much space cookie is just good at him so it's an exception I believe

yep^

the heroes i listed are booster heroes, these are the most reliable heroes at 1v9 in dota

TBH I've won a lot of games with od and Lina and shit, thing is these heroes r more easily countered and r situational
U want a hero who u can consistently pick who consistently can win solo
For me that hero is sf

I can only boost with mid sf or maybe carry slark.

And i played aganst a booster who was forced to aupport tonight and i fuckin rekd his carry so bad that we stomp3d the game

Broodmother, Abaddon (Radiance build) or Timbersaw offlane = free tickets to 4k in no time.
Tested it on 2 accounts.

Broodmother is insanely effective @ <4000, assuming you know, how to play her at least decently.
Everywhere higher - still insanely effective, but starts to depend more and more on your individual skill.
Hell, there are lots (relatively) of guys in 6-7k bracket, who play almost only Brood since 3-4k.

Timber is a very situational offlaner who sucks even more cuz bs is popular rn

Mid : Joker/Tinker
Off : Timber/Nyx
Carry : AM

io 4Head

I boost with cookie

Pos 4: Earth spirit, IO
pos 5: VISAGE, jakiro

Support is actually the best role to climb when you are already high. Players have almost no exposure to proper supporting when they climb from low to high, so most supports players are awful around 5k. Learning how to support gives the team a massive advantage.
