Crystal Maiden is no longer a hard support.

She is now a late match hard nuker magic damage dealer mage hero.

In ranked, at least.

Unless you’re boosting, and a TI player, you probably are only slightly ahead of the MMR bracket you’re currently “stuck” in. 

Crystal Maiden is now a late match hard Mage Nuker, just like invoker, but without being OP since level three or so, like invoker. 

Invoker is not a physical damage Carry, but he is still a core very strong late game and he scales. 

So does Crystal Maiden. 

She should no longer be classified as a support, but she cannot be safe laner, Mid, or Offlane either. 

She is awesome, and I’m a Grandmaster on her. 

But she is extremely horrible early game, as in your safe laner juggernaut is the one supporting you and saving your life, not the other way around. 

Late game she is unkillable and capable of turning ANY 5 v 5 team fight upside down. 

She just needs to get Six slotted. 

I’d rather be a Six slotted Crystal Maiden than a six slotted terror blade late game if you know what I mean. 

Terror Blade has to hit every single hero in a single target manner until the kill happens. And he has to survive. The PA will blink abyssal him and he’ll just die instantly. 

But with the bad girl Crystal, however, no one can touch you late game, even if you don’t buy a single damage item. No ethereal blade, no dagon, no parasma, no nothing. 

Your attack speed will suddenly become slow like you’re attacking an enchantress. 

And you will take heavy magical damage nonstop. 

Just don’t ulti during the enemy BKB, no matter what. 

Just wait six seconds, and then jump. 

Is it cold in here, or is it just me. 

You will have a hundred percent lose rate in ranked games because the hero is unplayable in normal mode DotA until very late game, not your fault. 

And if you AFK farm until that happens, insta reported ban with overwatch conviction because of freaking role abuse. They will never understand that hard support role on Crystal Maiden is obsolete, and there is no current other role that fits her, not even position four. 

You are a late match nuker mage. 

Accept it. 

The reason why you will never get out of low MMR in DotA.

You think I’m going to ignore whatever that is happening in that cruel dark world outside of your bubble and just focus on your game and what’s under your control and improve your performance and master the fundamentals and naturally you’re going to climb out of low MMR. No, the universe and all there is inside of it are against you climbing. You have to break the laws of physics, and join the dark side, in order to climb out of either low MMR, or rock-bottom of real life. There’s no alternative.

I know there are things about the force that they’re not telling me. ~ Anakin Skywalker 

There are techniques within the force, against which, there is no resistance. ~ Darth Kreya 

You see, the fundamentals, they say, you need to master, in order to climb out of low MMR. 

Not gonna happen. 

Think of the fundamentals as you will lose if you don’t have them, but you will not necessarily win if you do. 

You are not going to win, because of networth. Even if you buy the right items. 

But there’s a way.. 

You must be able to see it by now, Mr. Anderson, you can’t win. It is pointless to keep fighting. Why, why, Mr. Anderson, why do you persist? 

Because I chose to. 

If you’re incapable of defeating your enemies, even if they are textbook counter heroes to the one you picked, you will always lose in low MMR. 

Low MMR people are bad at the game, bad as people in real life, backstabbers (no offense, Riki), not people who have the slightest of honor, masculinity, dignity, and courage. They are cowards. 

And because of their weakness, they win. They always win. 

They take the shortcuts. They don’t have any morality whatsoever to stop them from doing the wrong, dishonest, immoral, or dishonorable thing. They just do it, because it works. 

They choose the quick and easy path, that leads to the dark side. 

They don’t improve, and then naturally end up climbing because of how good they are. 

They don’t fix their fundamentals, and that’s why they’ll never climb. 

But they will never let people with great potential who are stuck with them in low MMR climb either. 

And that’s why you’ll never make it out of low MMR. You are working on yourself, improving, mastering the game, becoming better every day in every way, as if you have no opponent. 

And not any opponent, a pure evil and weak one, who does nothing but shut you down and counter you all game long, every single game, as if they’ve been hired specifically to do so. 

But there’s a way. 

Vader, you must confront Vader, then only then, a Jedi you will become. 

You must learn how to defeat your counters, on every single hero you ever pick in ranked DotA, in order to climb MMR, even if you’re in Herald. 

These people are bad they do nothing but counter you all game long, even if they’re smurfing. They are not going to become the best version of themselves, and then go out and fight to end the game. They feed on your energy, like narcissists do. They have no energy of their own. No plan, no desire, no purpose, no nothing. Just empty vessels ruining it for others, because they themselves don’t even exist. 

Countering your counters is the only way out. 

I am the danger, I am the guy who knocks on the door. ~ Walter White 

Learn how to destroy any hero that stands in your way in-game no matter what, and then go back to mastering the fundamentals, if there’s any. 

There’s no other way out. It is your destiny. 

We should double our efforts. 

I hope so commander, for your sake. The emperor is not as forgiving as I am. ~ Darth Vader 

In order to truly win, truly make it out of low MMR, you have to learn how to stop your supports from dying.

What if I don’t wanna fight anymore.

What if I wanna stop fighting.

Then, you’ll die.

If I am everything you are, ..

You’ve learned nothing.

Back to the beginning. I gave you a choice. Live, or die.

No.

Incorrect.

You lack conviction. ~ Anakin Skywalker

There’s a misunderstanding that I know you’ll fall for, on your way to complete grandmastery.

You will never defeat the dark side by being one of them.

You can only defeat the dark side, by being indistinguishable from the dark side Sith Lords, and simultaneously, being the physical embodiment of pure light side like Master Yoda.

The difference between you and them in this instance is the fact that they are the dark side. You’re just using it. Just as you’re using your teammates to Frontline for you in battle, but you are not your teammates. You do not use the dark side while remaining shielded from it through a force barrier so you do not get engulfed by it and fall to the dark side. You use it easily and wisely, to become strong and powerful enough to defeat your enemies while feeling all the anger and hate, without getting burned by them or consumed to the point of no return by the dark side.

But anger and hate are just tools to unlock and reach your full potential. They are not there to stay and they are not who you are. You are not a slave to anger and hate, you are using them to become more powerful and reach your full potential. You are totally in control.

But with anger and hate, there is no purpose. There is no motivation. There is no reason to keep going. So is with being pure light sided. You will hit a breaking point where there’s no point in fighting anymore.

What can men do against such reckless hate. ~ Theodin King

The constant pressure of war can erode the will of even the greatest of Jedi, and turn them to Sith. ~ Knights of the Old Republic II

You will not remain on the light side if you’re exclusively on the right side, as long as you’re still losing to weaker enemies, because of how pure evil they are.

You have to be on the light side, as much as Master Yoda ever was, and at the same time use the full power of the dark side willingly while totally being under control, in order to always defeat your enemies, become the most powerful version of yourself, and reach, achieve, and unlock your full potential.

If you refuse to use the full power of the dark side, you’ll only be playing and performing at ten percent of your capacity, even if you’re a Jedi Grandmaster and the highest ranking member of the council.

Again, if you’re exclusively on the dark side as well, you’ll always lose, because there’s no reason for you to win. You’re just one of them, and there’s no reason for you to destroy what you’re already part of. You will just give up, after realizing you’re no match for pure evil who are superior to you in terms of ability, energy, or resources. But if your default and baseline is pure light side, like Master Yoda, there will be no limit to your potential. Your powers will be endless, for you can never break what’s flexible.

Valve has successfully created a community comprised of the largest aggregation of immoral people known to mankind.

Valve has created a community formed of hungry rabid dogs tearing each other apart by any means necessary through both denial of climbing MMR despite obvious skill and improvement throughout the years, and through profound injustice practiced by their oppressive behavior scoring system.

Maximum immorality humanly imaginable. Psychopathy couldn’t even begin to describe what we see here. 

Pure evil people like Thanos and Palpatin are kind examples of pure light and goodness, compared to the average DotA 2 player competing in pubs. 

This is the exact opposite of the much larger community of League of Legends, for example, where people value honor and dignity and morality above all else, even if they still speak to each other like teenagers in chat when griefed. 

I do not believe that something more disgusting and immoral could’ve ever been created anywhere in society in human history, not by Nazi Germany, not under communism, or any tyrannical monarchy in the past human history. 

These are literal satanic cannibals devouring each other hungrily like rabid abominable monsters for sadistic pleasure motivated by psychopathic inferiority complex at a level the likes of which we have never seen before in the entirety of human history. 

If there’s any aggregation of humans in human history that has ever existed that is more immortal and psychopathic than this, I haven’t seen it.
