    I'm really interested to hear where the idea of mids not ganking comes from. I started playing DotA 2 in 2013 and other would tell me the mid is almost always the role that needed to do the ganking. I would play mid Puck and TA and gank all the time. Now i stopped playing Dota for a number of years and only got back into it a bit recently, but the mid being a ganker is an idea that I still have. So at least that one bad habit i dont have lol.

  • @alexandradota2
    @alexandradota2 3 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    On dota 1 the midlane hero was always ganking, starting even with the 2' minute rune. Usually ppl picked pudge, sf, mirana, zeus, lina or whatever, get a bottle and ganking over and over again on sidelanes. It could be min 20 and have 35 cs or something like that. At least on the platforms i played😂

      sounds like pub picks, in leagues it was more like Viper, SF, Tiny, QoP, Puck (basically mobile heroes that can quickly nuke for >800 by level 7) Only would you ever see cores mid is if they draft a counter pick to the midlane with a core that has an edge in base damage recovery or range and is just better at scoring last hits and denies. Then you'd see DK Brood Huskar Outworld Devourer Necro and sometimes Panda or Sniper (fast attack point animations (can be good if you have low ping)).

      @@sirknightdude2587 well yeah, those heroes too. Now that I think more ppl were playing any hero on mid back then. I remember seein a lot of AA, Bane, Ench, ET. Stuff like Topson plays nowadays. And I think it's better that way. I think that as long as you have fun and it works, you can try any build you want, no matter how weird and stupid may be in the eyes of the others. The community is really toxic and sticked to the basic concepts rn. For example if I pick AM mid and go for some MOM basher aghs build, at least 1 person from my team will flame since the very beggining and will find only me responsible for any mistake in the game. Meanwhile, I just wanna have fun and increase my MMR.

      maybe you should have bought the ward then. That's literally why he said that carry should buy the wards because at later stage of the game, you're probably farming by yourself while your 4other teammates fight on the other side of the map. Even if they have the wards, they won't place it anywhere close to you just because they're too far away. If you feel endangered, just buy your own wards. Stop blaming your support on everything.

    I've been playing since 2011 and I can't think of a time when mid was ever seen as a passive farm lane. Obviously there are some exceptions with greedy mids who want farm, but usually the popular mid heroes are ones that can abuse runes and gank the side lanes when they hit a power spike like QoP or storm.

    True, a carry could purchase get a ward, but it's not ideal because he could be putting the ward in a spot that the enemy has their sentry at, thus making it an easy de-warding for the enemy. A carry would have to buy a sentry (which costs gold) in addition to a ward to guarantee that the place they are placing the ward isn't already sentried.

    the only exception to the rule are the low tier mid heroes, the dumb right click mid heroes and tinker. Those are heroes that are either too slow to go gank enemy lanes, need a lot of items to scale or they are made to dominate mid, take it fast and then proceed to join another lane and start team fighting.
    And Tinker of course is the opposite. The whole point is to delay his BoTs before he becomes a global gank presence. So in this case mid needs to get ganked hard.

    if there is no space for carry to farm, I think the real issue is, are we all competing for farm which translate to "are we all picking semi core or hard carry?". If yes, then someone else need to give up their farm. If you have AM and Tinker in one team and NP, for sure there will be no space to farm unless you are controlling whole map. However, during the game, no one wants to give up their farm and as a result everyone has sub par item while enemy core already at peak

    Honestly Jenkins, I wish turbo players listened to any one of these strats, I used to not have time for normal games so I put my suffering in turbo mode. In turbo if mid ganks at lvl 6 and gets a double for his safe, safe goes up 1 lvl per hero, you get about 400 gold and mid goes up a level as well. You even use that ult you cant find a use for in mid and put in on cool down, I.e. use it for what it was intended

    Actually in Dota 1 mid was always the ganker. In Dota 2 it switched around, people ganked into mid and mid more farmed. It seems now we transition back to the way it was.

    • @ddenozor
      @ddenozor 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The trick with ganking as mid is, you MUST kill their carry or cores. If you waste your time and resource on a support kill two things happen: First the support gets a free ticket to the base,free tp scroll and buys wards salves etc.. And second now you don't actually know where that support is,so you lose info and they can gank your other lane now that you are very far. Oh also their mid gets like 2-3 completely free creep waves. So ALWAYS go for the carry/core kill. Sometimes I think it might be better not to kill that support even if it's the only one you can kill and it's guaranteed.

    I don't know what you've been smoking as of late, Jenks, but midlane in dota 1 was always a role that occupied mid because with the fastest level 6 on the map you could tilt the balance on the sidelanes to your favor and thus most prominent midlaners were all that instead of mid PL/Faceless Void/Ursa.
    And moreso, even in dota 2 when ranked got added - fastest way to get get solo mmr was to spam QoP/Storm/Tinker mid because of the nature of the heroes and inability of pubs to retaliate due to lack of knowledge back in the day

    • @Fera-gr5mm
      @Fera-gr5mm 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly. The "ganking to midlane" is, however, important before level 6-7, in order to tilt the balance in 1v1 lane. After level 6-7, it makes super sense to gank (if you cannot push).
      In pubs, I see people requesting gank instead of helping mid, mid going away from midlane before level 6, nobody farming mid, and mid statically farming (instead of pushing or ganking) when the opponent leaves.

    I reached 10 MMR after a consistent losing streak, then I started playing carry and reached 140 MMR. Later, I met offlaners who would take beating from carry and then take all the safe farm, use spells to take creep waves, which brought me back to 10 MMR. So I switched to offlane and didn't steal the safe farm from my carry, also this allowed me to shut down their carry. With this strategy I reached around ~400 MMR. Now the next problem I face is that my teammates take bad fights. If the opposite team is snowballing them, they get frustrated and fight more and blame each other. I hope I can improve my gameplay and find a solution to this so that I can exit herald bracket.

    The first advice about the farm stealing is so goddam true. I used to play carry and fed up of mostly every single game having my farming patterns broken again and again and again. Even more sad than supports doing that is when offlaners, aggressive offlaners like slardar farming jungles. Just because I am aware of this and pay attention to this, now that I play mostly pos 3 nd 4 my games are much easier just because I respect my carry farm and make space for him.

  • @noobhere1

    I play on the SEA server and even as a pos 1/2/3, I'll always buy and carry the wards myself to plant **UNLESS** my supports are just that good that I don't have to do so. And if I die due to my lousy warding skills, it's solely my fault. Observer wards are now free! Just send them along with your items in laning phase. Ironically, despite playing both dota 1 & 2, and having over 5000 hours accumulatively, I still feel that I have flaws which this video addresses one of it which is the sub-duty of a pos 5 :) A great video by the way!

    Here is advice from an old Dota player, offlaners or Pos 3 players should buy team items (with auras like pipe, crimson, vlads, guardian, shivas, ac and so on), as well as supports Pos 4 and 5, they should have meka, force stuff, glimmer, archane boots, veil of discord and so on. Main goal is to focus most toxic heroes from other team (never focus tank first) and to save carry and mid from dying in other words, die for them.

    I played since 2013 and there was as certain build up of a midlane mindset from absolutely go gank lanes to stay farm and win with gold advantage, because you'll just waste you time anyway, since people learnt to write "ss" for a missing hero in chat and your teammates on the lane have no mana and hp anyway.
    So now you actually need to break your midset as mid laner togo gank again.

  • @mandos6145
    @mandos6145 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The only thing better than leaving mid to gank is somehow getting ganked, one time an idiot spirit breaker was trying to help his arc warden gank me as silencer, by the 5 minute mark I had 4 more int, the spirit breaker was missing 4 of his int, I was higher level than the arc and we demolished the game because we won both the other lanes

      I know that when I break the first tower I should move to help, only then, but even that would be right, instead of that I go breaking the tier 2 and 3 mid towers, just because it is cool with broodmother, then ALL the enemies come to defend mid and I make space for them to go breaking the lane towers, is that TOO bad??

Bottle + Rune is just too powerful, why wouldn't a mid roam? that's insane talk. It's literally always been amazing for mid to roam, what other reason is there to have a bottle/runes other than greed? It's for the mid to gank the side lanes. It was like that in dota allstars, AND in the betas for both HoN and DotA 2..
