Is it important to master all roles in Dota 2? to improve winrate in General Discussion
NYANTYPEHUMANDESTRUCTIONW...

    I used to play support in ranked games, until I took an arrow to the knee everytime the mid fails to stop feeding. Now I played solo mid more and realize that I forgot how to play support anymore.Will it be really important to know how to play support in 3k ranked games?

      No, but it's good to know the basics of every role I guess.

        No, but it does help.

          The good thing about 3k games is that nobody can play anything. However they think they can.

          EDIT: Especially support. 3k supports is like, shavers.

            pretty much agrees with u all, meanwhile having a game where theres this retard thinking sniper is a legit mid hero against pudge

            Trodlabundin

              Sniper owns Pudge in mid.

                he cant even last hit well for god sake

                Trodlabundin

                  yes, 3k players in a nutshell. That doesn't change that Sniper>Pudge even though u said:

                              its nice that support is easy to play and you basically need 0 mechanical skill

                              Androgynous

                                attack moving and animation cancelling is still a skill.

                                pulling, especially pull-throughs can be considered mechanical.

                                positioning is a skill that is hard to improve on compared to something like last hitting. how do you know that your positioning is good? you know when it's bad because you get caught out and die, but you don't die, how do know whether the reason you didn't get caught out was because you had good positioning, or because of something else?

                                you can tell when you're good at last hitting because it's easily quantifiable, by last hits per minute or gold per minute.

                                so you may need different skills, but skills nonetheless, so playing a support is by no means easy.

                                  @regulator You made me giggle. You're probably one of those guys which thinks that supports ward runes at start and that's it. As a support you have to pull, stack, ward, make items, be in teamfights, gank mid, have tp scrolls, mek in 15 mins, sometimes initiate or sacrifice for the team, and lastly not feed. All of these with a tiny gold income. So how easy does is sound now?

                                  As a carry you have to know how to last hit, and what items to make. BIG FUCKING DEAL.

                                                    I have a friend at 5.5k who plays support nearly exclusively in ranked. Almost every game I observe him in he will have the least deaths and highest kill participation, often 5-0 by 10 minutes or so.

                                                    playing support well is far from easy...
