    I just wanna know, any suggestion for me to climb from below 1k to 2~3k?

    I was trying to spam AM but I failed so I stopped playing rank and just go to pubs to finding my best hero.

    Help me, guys. I just want to get out from this 1k

        Actually, my worst nightmare is PA

        Jacked

          PA ursa wraith king and any high winrate hero in 1k

            Play simple easy ones. Not am. Contrary to popular belief that hero is not good even in 1k

                The problem is everyone knows how to counter him and people in 1k doesn't know how to play him or with properly.

                basement :)

                  Maybe PA because no-one knows how to counter the passive?

                        But keep in mind that the biggest factor of climbing is your own gameplay, not your hero.

                            Thanks for ur advice, I'll try my best

                            fx

                              Any hero is fine. But if i have to go back to 1k again i would choose sky or zeus just because the hero is fun.
                              Psst if you choose sky just practice your cs and go mid get basic item and shit then go for BELOW 15min atos then its a free win. More simple way is to think that you are playing 1vs0 game and keep farming till you hit 6 slottef then hit rosh then ancient

                                              the meta exists in every mmr bracket. it's just catered towards their own bracket.

                                              pretty sure u might think 4k has a "meta" and some 6k player picks lion mid and dumpsters your invoker and says THERE IS NO META.

                                                heroes that have snowballing and late game potential or heroes that if unpunished become broken. stuff like slark or chaosknight. mostly carry positions.

                                                  but tbh at that low mmr and you still struggle you should just keep playing and learn all heroes

                                                    Try inv heroes.

                                                    In 1k bracket no one buys detection...
                                                    But if you realy want to get of 1k Bracket you must improve, spamming doesn't help you to stay in a higher bracket.
                                                    I used to spam earth spirit, that gave me mmr boost every time, but i can't stayed in the new bracket because my mechanics didn't improve, i was just mastering 1 hero

                                                        If you want to learn a hero this is the mmr to try it. It's like playing against bots. But more retarded

                                                          Bots let you play mid at least

                                                            you reach level 3 asap in mid and snowball completely out of control while flashfarming everything just from that.

                                                              people dont like playing support in 1k, but cm is so OP there its true

                                                                if u need a certain hero to get out of 1k u kinda deserve it
                                                                i can play most heroes and win, but if im tryharding i go storm, lina, od, ember, those r my main 4, but again i pick huskar and shit and win too. it doesnt rlly matter at 1k

                                                                Shou

                                                                      Shou

                                                                                1. the enemy won't be good at drafting/itemising so pick heroes that punish a lack of game knowledge/bad itemisation - invis heroes, map-farmers, multiple unit heroes, pa etc.

                                                                                2. your team don't know you from adam and don't know what to do so pick a hero that can get an early game godlike streak - your team will listen to you if they've seen you fight and win already.

                                                                                am is a bad choice because if the game is going badly your team will give up before you come online and everyone knows how to counter a mediocre am.

                                                                                despair
