Now imagine this. In all of these games, were there enemy players? Of course. So consider one of these enemy players. Who are they facing? They're facing these noob players that you described as enemies. What does this mean? This means that in herald (and most low mmr) games, the enemy team has noobs too. Except for the occasional smurf or booster (who will most likely win despite the shit show, just because they're good) every single player in herald is a f*** noob. That includes you, your team mates, your enemies. Smurfs and boosters simply learn to read the flow of the game, and experiment with different heroes and roles to find the easiest to rank up with. Then they crush the lane with heroes that scale well, use the advantage to snowball with farming and survivability items, and only fight when they think they can clean up kills, AFTER risky enemy spells are used. Sometimes they force tps to def towers and then tp over to their team to fight at an advantage. Mechanical skill and good decision-making makes for an easy peazy ride out of herald, I know cuz I had to smurf with a 10mmr alt to show my herald friend how easy it is xD

This way the player is prioritizing stats reminds me of some of my *really* old playing days, back in the early 2000's, when it was Dota Allstars, and was a mod of Warcraft III. At one point, I was messing around with a stat-based build on Centaur that was actually somewhat effective. This was when his ulti was to get a huge boost of strength (just as Drow's ulti used to be a huge boost of agility), and "Retaliate" didn't increase based on your strength. I would max hoof stomp, and everything else was adding to stats. That, combined with a blink dagger (when it was nowhere as ubiquitous as it is today), made him insanely tanky very early, much more so than even today, and able to get close faster than most players were used to, and would do decent right-click damage. Good times.

Thanks to this video, I realized that you can still level stats. Levelling stats is a good way to instantly buff durability, mana pool, mana regen, health regen, and attack speed slightly. Armor doesn't get that much of a boost. If you're constantly getting ganked, levelling stats can help prevent that. One level of bonus stats grants an instant +40 HP which, in the early game can be the deciding factor between life and death, and in the mid game, can sometimes save you from being chipped to death.

[@sginrummy88]
