Ever since watching Pain dota, I gained 1k mmr in just 1 week (I've been playing an unhealthy amount of dota). I literally cannot stop winning. I honestly think I just get good teammates every game, and they carry me. I literally go up a rank every day. But I know that when I lose my good teammates, I'm just gonna go back to archon, and I honestly don't want that, and before my streak of having absurd teammates, every game carrying me ends. I need to have what it takes to climb back up and climb even higher.

Mr. Youtuber taught me

1. In the laning phase, don't try to get every single last hit if it means losing a significant chunk of your hp pool.

2. The carry should never die like ever because it messes up item timings.

3. Creep equilibrium importance

4. Hero puddle and drafting importance

5. Some smurf told me never to show my face in the lane for longer than 5-10 seconds.

6. Having a plan even before creeps spawn

7. FORCED 50/50 ISN'T REAL

How do I improve from this so I can get to immortal from ancient? Assuming I don't fall to archon again

What makes an immortal different? I'm planning to get to divine in a week, assuming my teammates don't stop being good (I don't think they would stop at this point).

I need a pos 1 hero that can initiate, does not depend on a lot of items, and is hard to kill and has great comeback potential.

Context: I realized my teams were losing on draft because we had no initiation (most of the time). I mainly played sven for this, but I realized how clunky his playstyle is. Maybe he has an old kit. idk. Now, my other heroes that can initiate are PA and WK. However, PA is really easy to play around against, and WK is just fugly as hell I can't bring myself to play him, there's also Ursa but he kinda falls off later in the game if I don't snowball.

Rank: Legend.

I'm going to sleep, but I'll make sure to reply to comments to clarify things if I need to.
