Dota 2 is hard.

Today was bland, so I'll spare you the details. However Dota wasn't. I was solo-queuing (which means I was playing Dota with myself and a bunch of random people), and winning a lot of games. I was destroying everyone, and I was getting so close to the next rank. Ranking up means that you're getting better, winning more matches, and it means you get to play against people that are better. In the tier I am now, there are a lot of griefers, and everyone in general just sucks (including myself). We've been trying to get out of this rank for so long, but to no avail. I was getting so close, I only needed 2 more wins to get to the next rank... But then something sad happened. I started playing with my brother, and that's where things started to go downhill. We started losing every match, until we lost 3 matches in a row. Now I'm even worse off, and I don't think I will be getting out of this rank anytime soon. Dota 2 is a tough game, but I feel like there's something I'm just not quite getting. We were destroyed by a carry, so maybe I need to learn carries better? But that doesn't suit my playstyle at all. It's an interesting conundrum for sure, and I hope I'll get past my boundaries that I have right now. Wish me luck,

Signing out.
