    Do you guys also think that having simpler and less toxic name make your team play better and trust you more? I mean, the last time I tried stupid names like "TRASH AFK CARRY" I had a 3 losestreak on ranked with bunch of toxic weirdos, the longest one I ever have on ranked until now, went back to "bws" and breezed through games easily with rather cooperative teammates again
    Maybe its just my luck, and s a m p l e s i z e due to my inactivity, share your thoughts

      I think setting my name to a pro player will magically grant me their skill.

      Beks

        i think it affects alot

        i neve trust ,,only midd ,, name players or safe carry

        i love names like Original ( example mine ) or funny or somehing which nothing to do with dota or mmr

        dead

          People who use names of pro players are mostly trash tbh

          TripleSteal-

            never noticed it having any impact on game quality.

            on the other hand, names like PMA, allchat muted,m1v9 etc. usually indicate retards. the name itself doesnt affect anything, but its a sign that the person using it is toxic, and it will indeed have negaive impact on communication inside the team.

            Negative Mental Attitude

              1. what does bws even mean
              2. Im actually employing psychological warfare on the enemies when i have toxic name. When they see they are losing to an enemy carry called "1v9 everygame" they get tilted, thus reducing the chances of a comeback by HUGE amounts
              3. When my supports see "1v9everygame" is their hard carry they expect me to play like shit and are less inclined to help me in lane, little do they know that THEY are shit and them not "helping" me in lane is actually game winning

              TLDR im a dota god and ill be 10k before summer

                I prefer my teammates have a mic in 2017 and know how to communicate. Whether he's Peruvian or not as long as he can speak a few words we all understand that's better then the average dota player who has a mic but doesn't talk because of insecurity issues

                  When my name is daddy people defer to my parental wisdom thus allowing me to lead properly.

                    if they have a spanish name u know u can trigger theem ez. makes for fun gaem

                      Just use normal names. Basic, Bland Names. My alt accounts just have names like Light, Yellow, and June. Just simple words.

                      It doesn't impact your teammates, but if you choose a name like LOWPRIORITYKING you may just end up psyching yourself out.

                      Honestly your name just doesn't matter, if you have a lose streak and you correlate that with your name of all things you're just ignoring what went wrong those games.

                      disgusting weebs

                        no fucking shit u can usually tell how a person will likely behave just from their nickname, sometimes avatars too

                        props to ppl with big boobs/ass or overly sexualized women on their profile picks, almost always they are legit retards

                        disgusting weebs

                          somehow it only applies to actual photos and not art, having hentai babes on ur profile pic is a whole different mental condition

                          kormoranas

                            i have never ever changed my name, but i believe if your name is something like pu.ssy destroyer you should pay at least 200 mmr above level

                            Shou

                              I at least enjoy the overly sexualized women profiles

                              disgusting weebs

                                yea i bet u also enjoy ur spicy ainsley harriot and other garbage from 2014 dota meme vids

                                not too fond of ur kind either, usually ppl with such avatars are passive-aggressive insufferable сunts, especially if the game doesn't go their way

                                disgusting weebs

                                  man im such a fucking psychotherapist wonder what shitty kind of dota players i am

                                                Well, I just put (boosting) in my name and now I can suddenly get the carry role. So far I have not lost a game where I have played carry in the 4 out of 20 games I have recently played. :^)

                                                doc joferlyn simp

                                                  Whenever I see "boosting" or "booster" in the name of a player asking for carry and when I check the stats and they aren't both above 700, I automatically assume he's dogshit and no way is he carrying.

                                                  chaeryeong

                                                    Well most people are dumbfcks like me who's not even sure what the average GPM/XPM for a core is. I don't even play carry usually too, I just felt like it.

                                                    doc joferlyn simp

                                                      When you put "boosting" in your name, you're setting yourself above the other players in the match. This means that the average GPM/XPM for carries does not mean squat. It means that every game, you should be dominating whether you are playing Rubick mid Dagon build. More so when you play traditional carries, you should be reaching 900 GPM/XPM or some shit.

                                                      322 is a must
