How to Die Less as a Carry in Dota 2: Why Miracle's KDA is More Miraculous

[@SuperMcnap]

[@lazamal]

To me the biggest thing i learned from the video was counting the abilities that could pose a threat to you in the early rotations. And that the key to recognize it is the position of my camera during the fights. Its like i knew those things, but seeing it just shows the impact it could have on my gameplay. Ty.

[@bl00d3dmoneyenkur4]

I get what you're saying. Seeing it other than doing it helps and reminds you of how good you can be at the game!

Man you are the reason why i get legend medal from archon! More videos man! Great contents by the way!

[@drhank33y]

This is also great info for a support player, I notice I've been dying way too much sometimes in my games. And not only is it giving the enemy money, but it's very noticable in my levels (I'm often quite low compared to the others). Really need to play safer.

[@alexthielke]

probably the best vid you ve done and i´ve seen yet, really good work, this time nothing to complain. one question if you read it, do you know what reason could it be for miralce going for pts instead of phase boots in this game?

[@dotatipsntricks]

PT much better for farming with a Battlefury, Phase better for dominating a lane and fighting early. As stated in the video his purpose this game is to be a farming late game carry, hence the boots choice. Great question!

[@wkwkwkwkwkwkwkwkwkwk7070]

Can someone tell me what set miracle used in this game?

[@SunHunter27]

At 2 minutes you make a good point about kda stats being super high on players that win a lot. Striving to get such a high kda can be detrimental to a pub player that will win about 50% of their games. In other words: kda isn't everything, which should of course be clear :) I would love to see a video with pretty much the same subject, but from a losers perspective. Exploring why this cautious play style wasn't enough to win, or why it was still the best way to try and win the game.

[@xFlared]

Carries usually have a lot of gold. Dying as a carry is already a substantial setback when in a game, because it transfers tons of gold and experience. Therefore in general having a consistently good KDA will improve your mmr long term.

[@etheriongaming517]

"KDA is not everything" is plain wrong. You might have said Kills are not everything since it's taking the objectives that win you the game. When youre dead, you're not doing anything. So dying less will get more things done. Simple as that.

[@TheXeno10]

One thing to add to be a very good carry is having a very in depth knowledge of the game mechanics

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

That goes for any role really.

[@roaringpain3250]

Thanks for the insight :). I have 2 questions. Why did Miracle get Treads on PA instead of Phase boots or better said, when are Treads better? And secondly, when should you make Battlefury before Deso and when should you just skip Bfury?

[@lotterino_6503]

I think u should buy bf when ur team provides u space or when your lane goes extremely well and u know u can be greedy. Deso on the other hand allows you to fight early, so basically you want to buy it when you are forced to fight early, and i mean by this that the other team line up is very early game agression focused.

[@roaringpain3250]

@@lotterino_6503 thanks :). I knew most of this, but my problem is that sometimes the laning phase goes very well and it feels like my team can handle it so I decide to go for bfury, right? But then something happens and the enemy team makes a comeback and now I'm stuck with an item that doesn't help me fight or farm (because I have no space to farm due to the enemy taking map control).

No. Matu is mostly their POS2 and Miracle takes POS1. Position 1 - hard carry Pos 2 - solo mid/semi carry Pos 3 - offlane Pos 4 - roaming support/jungler Pos 5 - hard support Miralcle - 1/2 Matu - 1/2 MC - 3 GH - 4/5 Kuroky - 4/5 So 4 of their players can actually switch between roles given by Kuro. So that is why it is so hard to draft against them as they play too god damn good with lots of heroes.

[@trippslevin3419]

Long time since I've heard such bullshits by the way. The things you are speaking of here are first of all common sense and you are mostly talking about not taking any risks and stuff like that. That is somewhat true and being "less dead" is better than being recklessly stupid but these players CAN AFFORD TO NOT TAKE RISKS because their respective teams does that for them. You can't win ranked games solely relying on your team having your back just because you are playing with 4 random strangers. You don't know their behaviour, you don't know their level of awareness, you don't know about their desicion making process, you CAN NOT rely on your team fighting 4v5 everytime as a pos 1/2 carry. Easily the opposing team will pressure you more and more until there is no free space to farm with their overall movement on the map and the commonly seen fact that they are just buldozing your team out while you are trying to out carry the cores of the opponent. Another thing "As soon as Miracle- sees..." means little to nothing in most of the cases. Not because he lacks the theoretical and creative aspect of the game knowledge but because little things matter. You can not always check if your team is being anihilated or not because you are losing 1-3 creeps if in lane farming and 1-3 creeps are a big game changer in professional games such as this one. Kuroky makes the desicions on behalf of the cores most of the time because he is the strategist-execution builder of Team Liquid. Just like Mind Control and GH are the playmakers most of the time and Matumba and Miracle are just the farm devourers and "scary factor" builders. Although I kinda see your point in this video it is kind of not really helping. Your overall game analyzing process is somewhat weak and you are missing the bigger picture these pro players are painting here... (If not by a mile)...

[@rondivuG]

Make ur own youtube channel. Post your top 1 immortal rank and lets talk. Do u really need to say bullshit? Not all players are that good. Thats a good way to give new players of what to think as a carry. Becoz most player have this mindset 'more kills = pro carry' Btw your bullshit
