General DiscussionHow good should I be at Dota after 1 year of playing?

With no experience of dota 1 i was around 2.7k ... Its the end of 2nd year of dota and 3.8k now ! Currently smurfing

The average player is probably around the 2k-3k range. I myself played for about year, and when ranked came out, I calibrated at 2300. Although, 2300 back then and 2300 now is different I suppose

hi badman spam spec to 8 k

i actually calibrated at 3,8k and stayed there for 2 years

Thanks for the response. I started playing ranked as soon as i could and i got calibrated really low. I'm playing with friends too often to activly raise my mmr, should I make a smurf and get recalibrated or should I try to raise my current mmr.

You have a sub-50% winrate, so youre most likely correctly placed. Try to improve instead of wasting time smurfing.

smurfing wont make u good ! u may find it odd cuz i m smurfing lul ! but i got 5 low priority on main :(

Dont be a dick an you wont have to smurf?

since when do you need to be a dick to have low priority?

Honestly speaking, it depends on how often you actually play, but if you play alot (1-2 games everyday) probably 2k to 3k

When ranked came out i was playing for a little less than 1 year, and i calibrated at 3,7k

Now im 3,9k (but i didnt play any dota from mid 2014 to last month, so a long break i guess)

Trashes like me are doomed to stay at 2k rofl

well it really depends on your commitment.

If you play like 60 hrs a week for a whole year, I think you should be @ around 5k++ because you've basically spent around 1/3 of your year on dota.

If you're pretty casual, probably around 2k-4k.

you will still proably be dogshit after that time

I started 3 months ago in the normal skill bracket. I calibrated at 3.2k mmr. I am now 4.6k mmr. That means you should be above 5k mmr after 1 year.

This iz my firzt accountz zo I exzept to ze 3k after a year.
I used to play zlot dota 1. And I didn't know that Dota 2 was in existence xD

@fallen support player

have you been playing other moba or highly competitive games before DOTA though?

i hope to be 4k by the time i reach "1 year of dota". but its my first moba or even a real competitive game.

Smh people calibrating at 3k makes me jealous

Desolated, I played Dota 1 for a month when I was a child. Then HoN for 6 years reaching 1760 mmr. Then League of Legends for 5 months reaching Diamond 5. I stopped playing Mobas for 2 years after that. I practically started anew knowing the utter basics: simple objectives such as stacking, denying, and killing towers.

Calibrated 2.7k ti4, 1k solo ranked games for 5k
So how good you should be depends on how much you play

it also depends on how stupid u are, for example im stupid enough to only climb from 1800 (ti4) to 3600 (now) within 800-ish solo ranked games

These also come in factor

Intelligence
Determination
Time spent
