The real reason why you can’t climb behavior score in DotA 2, regardless of performance or improvement.

Disruptive gameplay, and what it really means. Why didn’t valve just call it toxic gameplay.

Finding number one. 

People above 9k behavior score are awesome. I will never lose games because of them, ever. Even if they are herald I hard noobs. I will only lose because I was too tired but I wanted to play DotA anyway. For two reasons, I can’t lose when I’m at peak shape, and with high behavior scoring people, not because they are good when it comes to skill, but because of the nature of the people. They are.. human, to say the least. This is regardless of smurfs, because wherever I am, I AM THE SMURF, I AM THE GUY WHO KNOCKS ON THE DOOR, and I have deleted multiple accounts where I had 70 percent plus win rate with people who are boosting in the smurf pool with a hundred percent win rate with a rampage every game to calibrate divine and then keep winning in ranked afterwards until 10k plus MMR. 

They ABANDONED because of me, because they don’t care about behavior score, and they thought this is nothing like we’ve ever seen before. 

I am not here to tell you look at me I’m better than Ame. 

I am here to tell you, when it comes to gaining MMR, BEHAVIOR SCORE IS EVERYTHING. 

Literally, I’d rather have 12k behavior scoring HERALDS on my team EVERY SINGLE GAME, and I’ll climb to 17k MMR in one sitting. 

And I’d rather have that, than 4 to 8k behavior scoring people, with skill level that makes Ammar look like a hard noob feeder compared to them. 

That is, if Ame had 4k behavior score, I don’t want him on my team. I’d rather have a herald like Quinn with 12k behavior score instead (notice the joke I smuggled here). 

Again, I don’t care about convincing you of how good I am. I do that in-game. I’m here to tell you something you’d NEVER expect me to say. 

Behavior score WORKS, and it did it’s Job. AND IT IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, AND INFINITELY BETTER THAN MMR, when it comes to giving you balanced games and high quality games in terms of everything, except skill, to an extent that whatever quality of games increase you expect when you gain MMR, is nothing compared to the quality of games increase you gain every one thousand points of behavior score you gain. 

Again, I’d rather be 1 MMR and 12k behavior score, than 12k or even 17k MMR and 6k behavior score. 

It is that important, and it has worked as intended. 

The problem here is that after the fix, the door got shut, and you’re not ALLOWED to fix your behavior score, EVEN if you’ve changed. 

Obi Wan was right, you’ve changed. ~ Padme 

The only issue with behavior score, is climbing. 

Same with MMR. 

Not that the people who have high MMR are Hard noobs and that real deal skill exists only in crusader. 

Not that high behavior scoring people are toxic, and 4k are awesome friendly people. 

I literally believe every single one with below 6k behavior score belongs to Arkham Asylum for life. Every single one of them. No exception. Even me when I’ve been stuck with them for a while, you’ll become like them. Real life psychopathic narcissistic criminals with no morality whatsoever. Pure evil. 

And that’s why, if you’re a good person, you need to get out of there, by any means necessary, as long as the method you used does not get you permanently banned by the game developers like Mason. 

The only immoral thing you can do in this situation is to think you don’t NEED to climb out of low behavior score, as if your life depends on it. 

You either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain. 

If you stay there, BECAUSE it is impossible to climb, you will become like them, sooner or later, it’s just a matter of time, AND IT’S GOING TO SPILL INTO YOUR REAL LIFE. 

I was immune to its negative effects because I am Darth Vader from the start. 

It is too late, for me, son.

So, the first finding is, THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BEHAVIOR SCORING SYSTEM. YOU JUST NEED TO CLIMB. 

The second finding, you don’t need to play all 15 games ranked to gain the higher numbers. Only one or two games Max, and the rest all turbo, will do the trick. If the ranked games were flawless, you will gain the same 220 plus behavior score points, instead of the measly 80 points that makes you feel you’re going to take forever to climb. 

Second of all, you can’t try to win, and gain behavior score at the same time. You have to choose. 

Anakin, you have to choose. ~ Chancellor Palpatin 

The following tip, is the most mind-blowing finding of all time. Something that proves to you that you have a weak understanding of algorithms and how they work. 

Remember the post game survey, did you enjoy this game? 

You say yes, good game coordination. 

No, poor team coordination. 

And you think this survey is just for fun. And I know most of you idiots skip the survey altogether anyway. 

This survey is the DotA 2 secret algorithm, exposed for free. And you never noticed. 

DotA 2 developers, for some reason, consider 1 v 9 to be grief in and of itself, EVEN IF YOU DO IT TO WIN, with the intention of winning, and actually end up winning a hundred percent of your games because of it. 

Again, even if you win, you are what they call, DISRUPTIVE GAMEPLAY. 

There was GOOD TEAM COORDINATION, and you decided to DISRUPT that, by solo carrying the game, and winning not 5 v 5 with your team, but like a smurf, 1 v 9, DESPITE your team. 

Even if you won, you are a griefer, and you are eligible for losing behavior score in case you get reported. 

And that’s why you NEVER climb behavior score, especially in ranked. 

You were reported, and overwatch saw random jungling, split pushing, delayed timings, zero impact, a ton of kills, never joining team fights, and then said, guilty of grief. And the bots do it on their own without human verification or validation whatsoever. 

You will then be boiling with Rage, I DIDN’T GRIEF WHY DO I ALWAYS LOSE BEHAVIOR SCORE, because you don’t join every single team fight, and you are trying to 1 v 9 games. 

But all high immortal coaches recommend that for climbing MMR?!! 

Yes, because it works, given you’re already 12k behavior score. You didn’t ask them how can I climb MMR and simultaneously maintain my manicured behavior score climb at maximum rate. 

So they didn’t deceive you, from a certain point of view. 

From a certain point of view. ~ Obi Wan 

What else is in the survey. 

Smurf in the game ~ Bannable offense.

Game was a stomp ~ Unbalanced game, valve’s fault.

Wasn’t able to play my hero. My bad.

Friendly teammates. Also known as high behavior scoring teammates. 

Toxic behavior, also known as low behavior scoring people. 

The formula for climbing behavior score is not don’t pick carry. 

You will gain behavior score if you pick carry and lose behavior score if you pick support, if you violate the above findings. 

You lose behavior score, especially in turbo, as a carry, because you were jungling, even if you intended to win the game because of that decision, because this is poor team coordination, disruptive gameplay. If you join team fights from the start as a carry, you will gain behavior score, just like a support would do. It’s not because supports get reported less, it’s because they move with their team more, and rarely try to 1 v 9 with disregard to where their team is positioned on the map. That’s why IO shows the best results in terms of climbing behavior score, even if he feeds hard, because he is always tethered to someone.

Valve groups people with similar behavior together, disruptive people are all lumped together in low behavior score. And the coordinated people in high behavior score, contrary to popular belief, that good team coordination is something that is exclusive to high MMR or high immortal only. 9k plus behavior scoring Guardians have TI level coordination TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY. 

Think like a success, Act like a success. 

In order to gain behavior score, you have to act like good behavior scoring people, until you no longer need to, that is, you’ve reached the point where the system completely trusts you, because you’ve reached peak behavior score, and can’t grief, even if you wanted to. Simply because, there’s no reason to grief, unless you are a griefer by nature.

Why you need to do more, and accomplish and create more, on a consistent and regular basis, in order to avoid fatigue, exhaustion, depression, lack of motivation and sense of meaning and fulfillment, and burnout.

The answer to your perpetual state of fatigue, exhaustion, low energy, depression, lack of motivation, and burnout, is to always do more. More achievement, accomplishment, progress, and productivity. More work, more outcome, more things done per day, week, month, year, decade, according to what’s meaningful and fulfilling to you, according to your standards, core values, what matters to you, and what’s most important to you. According to what’s most rewarding to you, and gives you the most and highest sense of accomplishment, achievement, reward, fulfillment, satisfaction, success, and happiness. That is what you need to do more of, to accomplish more of, in order to avoid burnout. Not doing less, to save your energy, and spend it wisely.

Doing less, will actually lead to more burnout in the long-term, because you will never have enough Dopamine.

Not having enough Dopamine means everything will be way more difficult to do.

Everything will feel like moving mountains. Even the simplest of tasks.

Everything will be too mentally and physically exhausting to do, no matter how easy or simple the task is.

And then you will find that you will be spending way too much energy, just to get the least amount of tasks or things done, even though you’re doing less, or aiming for doing or accomplishing less per day, or per week.

You will literally be spending more energy, doing the same things, or on the same things.

Let me say that again.

The same task will now need more energy to get it done. You will need more energy to accomplish the same type of tasks, work, or things, compared to what you will need to do the same, in case you had more dopamine in your system, to begin with.

The same thing, will be harder, more exhausting, more demanding of focus, energy, and time, when you are running on low dopamine, or when you have low dopamine when you attempt to do them, than when you have more dopamine, serotonin, and reward, in your system, before you get started.

So you will end up spending more energy, in order to do less stuff, just because of your general decision, to start doing less in life, or to work less, in a futile attempt to avoid the inevitable burnout.

In order to avoid burnout, or exhaustion, you ended up doing the very thing that leads to burnout, which is doing less, which depletes your system of dopamine, until everything becomes too energy demanding and consuming, which leads to hitting burnout prematurely, always.

Everything suddenly feels like moving mountains. Everything now needs you to spend an endless amount of energy just to get it over with, even if it’s the easiest thing ever. Even the most simple of tasks, ever.

Doing less, will always backfire. It will lead to nothing but depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, fatigue, helplessness, hopelessness, lack of motivation, inspiration, and enthusiasm. Less energy, and apathy. Indifference. Loss of interest, and creativity. Loss of meaning of life. Cognitive decline, mental health and well-being decline. Mental fitness decline. Mental exhaustion all the time, before you even get started. Decline of intelligence and abilities over time. Less progress, less productivity, less overall life satisfaction and fulfilment. Less happiness. Less everything.

Doing less, does nothing but deplete your Energy, Dopamine, Serotonin, and Reward levels. Which will lead to depression, cognitive decline, low energy, exhaustion, major depressive disorder, and burnout, like no other.

By doing less, I’m referring to accomplishing less, in terms of what’s actually is meaningful for you. What’s actually worth it, for you, according to your core values, and what matters to you, and what’s important to you. What makes a difference, according to your standards, and what you think is true. What is actually rewarding, and feels like a major accomplishment or achievement, afterwards, for good, for you. What is true, to your most authentic self. What your highest self thinks is worthy of your time, life, health, energy, and effort, and leads to the highest sense of accomplishment, achievement, fulfillment, and satisfaction, you could ever have. According to you, your standards, and what you know is true for you.

What makes you happy, according to your definition of happiness. On your own terms. According to your own standards.

Doing more of that, is the only way out of burnout.

Nothing else works.

The prophecy, of the chosen one. And the fact that the dark side can never be destroyed. It’s an integral part of the force itself as a whole, and must always exist.

Think of balance as in stable versus unstable. Serenity. Peace. 

I sense a disturbance in the force. 

I sense great fear in you, young Skywalker. You have hate, you have anger, but you don’t use them. ~ Count Dooku

That is the very definition of unbalance of the force, with him at that time at least.

Even from an untrained Padawan you can sense that disturbance. 

Balance is the absence of disturbance that leaves the force unstable, unsettled. Like when you throw a stone at a pond. 

It has nothing to do with numbers or strength, but peace. 

There is no emotions, there is peace. 

Much to learn, you still have. 

I think by the dark side of the force Lucas always meant the force itself could be used in a dark way as in double edged weapon. Not that it’s a team that has to be balanced by the opposite team, otherwise it will be an unfair game. The force is a thing, that could be used for good, the light side of the force, and it could be used for and leads to and can magnify evil, if used another way, like the Sith use it. 

Jedi and Sith are not “taking” from the force, so when one side takes too much, they end up disrupting the balance. 

It’s the force itself that is in a state of unbalance, disturbance. As in upset, not mentally healthy and sane. This is from the view that the force is alive and has a will and feelings. Not just a physical thing that could be manipulated. 

Lucas could have said bring balance to the universe, but he kept insisting that actors say dark side “of the force” in the prequel trilogy, as opposed to just dark side like they used to say in the original trilogy, which could mean just being a bad person or evil. 

The force itself has a dark side. As in nature itself sometimes behaves as if it’s pure evil. And the Sith are using that dark side of the force itself, not the dark side of themselves, in order to become more powerful. 

The light side of the force is what the Jedi are exclusively using. That’s why it became light side of the force, as opposed to the good side only that was mentioned in the original trilogy. 

Like when Han Solo is sometimes a good person, but sometimes immoral. Same for the force. 

That’s why Luke was a good person despite using the dark side of the force sometimes. 

I do not fear the dark side as you do. ~ Anakin Skywalker 

Think of it like the ring of power Forged by Sauron, it consumes you, and turns you evil, even if it gave you nothing but power in the beginning. 

Cast into the fire. 

No. 

Destroy it! ISYLDUR!! 

The ring has it own will, own darkness. Same with the force itself. 

Wiping out the Sith does not erase the dark side of the force. It is always there, waiting to be consumed, to be used. 

The chosen one, because he is so powerful, will bring balance to the force, because he doesn’t need to move mountains in order to accomplish anything. 

That force sensitive conflict, war, erodes the will of all force users, and makes them in pain, suffering. Exhaustion. The constant pressure of war. 

That leaves the force unbalanced. Wounded. Depleted. Drained. Tired of all this. All the conflict and disturbance. 

The dark side of the force cannot be destroyed, at least without destroying the entirety of the force itself, both light and dark and everything in between.

The prophecy of the chosen one included destroying the Sith, not the dark side of the force itself.

You don’t know the power, of the dark side.

The power of the dark side of the force and using it, not the power of force sensitive beings when they become evil.

The chosen one, like Neo did, ended the war, and put an end to conflict, which restored peace, to the universe, and the force. 

What do you want? 

Peace. ~ Neo 

Why are you trapped in low MMR for years, despite having the potential to become the new Ame or Yatoro.

Some people ARE low MMR by nature. This is as good as it can get when it comes to them. 

There’s nothing wrong with that, this is what low MMR exists for. 

Telling low MMR people that there are things that if they work on they will naturally end up high MMR over a prolonged period of time is hypocritical to say the least, misleading, and outright malevolent from a certain point of view. 

They will not gain MMR, even if they work on EVERYTHING. Nothing will ever change, as long as they are slow. 

If you don’t look at the entirety of low MMR and say, why are these people so freaking slow it’s like they’re intentionally griefing or something, you don’t belong to high MMR, and you will never get there, even if you fix everything. 

That said though, if you have what it takes, if you are trapped in low MMR, and have the potential to be high MMR, then this message is for you. 

The force is strong with you, but you’re not a Jedi yet. ~ Darth Vader

Most of you think man, this game is so boring, I have to 1 v 9 every single game just to not heavily lose the game. I’ll just wait until the fun begins, until I can fight, which drags until you’re six slotted, and then you can be fast again. 

Run as fast as you can. 

As fast as I can? 

As fast as you can. ~ The Incredibles 

Problem is, you never try to run that fast, until you’re six slotted. 

Or until you’re ready. 

Are you trying to say that I can dodge bullets? 

I say when you’re ready, you won’t have to. ~ Morpheus 

So you think you have to wait that initial boring part out, until you’re ready to fight, and then you go ham. Before that, it is not safe. 

And that is why you fail. Your teammates will feed, your enemies will suddenly take too long to die, and they will just go high ground to end by passively hitting the buildings, instead of killing everyone and then worry about ending the game through a quick high ground push. 

But there is a way. 

What if I told you that the key to victory, the key to getting out of low MMR, is to run as fast as you can, from the start, from second one, from the very first lane wave. 

Aim to CS every single lane creep, especially the first wave, including denying every single creep in lane. Yes, all eight creeps every single wave, while harassing the enemies nonstop in-between, and surviving it, as if you’re high immortal. 

You will then be able to utilize the edge you have over your enemies from the start, which is your cognitive higher processing speed, to your advantage, from the start, from second one, and never lose to people who are slower than you ever again. 

The point of this is not gold. Not networth. AFK farming in the jungle the same amount of gold will not grant you the same results. 

It is about defeating your enemies from the start, from the very beginning of the game, and not just when you have the networth late game that allows you to easily do so. The only games you lose in low MMR are the ones you were too underfarmed to have an impact or be able to do anything to stop your enemies from ending the game. 

You are faster than all your enemies. Start acting like it, from the start, and not just when you’re six slotted. 

See you in high immortal. 

No more training do you require. Already know that, which you need. ~ Master Yoda 

There’s hope for you yet. ~ Anakin Skywalker
