In this video I've analyzed my own game and explained the decisions that I made in my game to help people understand there are literally decisions that you can make as a support player that control the game.

    Hey man your videos are awesome and your information behind every min is really gold and smart. I really like that high suport/players have this reading of map and the "why" of their decision in the game 😁. Keep uploading your videos are really original.
  • @andrewcathcart
    More videos like this - good to show despair examples where you're constantly reacting and losing
  • This is brilliant - super helpful… once I experienced controlling the early game as support like this, I chose it as my main role!

    I haven't even finished the video yet. But amazing job. Would love to see more of this style. It's kinda like a replay analysis or educational commentary, except the structure of the video really helps emphasize the bite sized points your making. So much easier to absorb this way.
  • @maquih
    man that was so devastating ink swelling the cm to kill mid XD support duo balling all over the enemy team
  • @kerafa
    as a person who likes to play supp thank you for giving me direction and not sit on lane and wait for a lucky play
  • Great video. More like this please! Especially would love to see a game where you're playing well but still losing, and how you handle it.
  • @Kaugka
    Generally very insightful video. Its nice for a pos 4/5 player like myself to have the game broken down into smaller bits, and makes it much easier to understand. Would definitely like more like this one! 👍🔥

    Great video! Couple questions I have: - 4:28 - You say you can't manfight jakiro, which is true. But mars can't either, so one of you has to tank the spells and right clicks from jakiro. Would you say it's better for mars to tank it and you give him tangos, because jakiro will have to push the wave into you to go on mars? - 4:40 - You say to always play on the opposite side of the lane, but isn't this only true if the small camp stays blocked? Let's say jakiro dewards the small camp and tries to stack it at 1:55. You would have to tank a bunch of damage trying to body block or reblock the camp with a sentry. Is it worth it to stay in lane hitting alch, or in this case would you be fine moving to the left side of lane to contest camps? - 6:39 - This is when you fly yourself a stick and eat one of the 2 mangos. Since they were spamming spells from the start, would it be better to start with 3 tangos, blood grenade, 1 mango, faerie, sentry, 1 branch, and magic stick? (basically, losing 1 tango+mango+branch in exchange for magic stick) The magic stick would have at least 5 charges by the time your courier gets to you, which is more hp regen than the extra mango, and you didn't need to use the 2nd mango before the courier got to you. Then, your courier would be tango, salve, mango, sentry or something like that Lastly, some video ideas or things I think would be useful - Some games, all of your cores are very farm heavy and don't make early moves well (e.g. pa, sniper, dark seer). In these cases, how do you setup the map as a team to farm well while not getting picked off, so that you can hit your midgame timing? In these games, it can be risky to contest runes, etc. even if you're ahead in gold because none of your cores help that much. - I like how you point out the mistakes you made - maybe a replay review of a lower rank (5-6k mmr) where you point out some of the mistakes that lower ranks make would be useful. I used to watch dubu's replay reviews and found it very insightful.
  • @juliencardenas
    im very impressed with your indepth knoledge of the game. impressing video
  • @joelmorrison3243
    Man what a great support video. I would love too watch you go over a lich replay, along with warding aspects to help defend the carry
  • @suntzu6122
    One huge thing i learned early was if you think "what could i do diff, or what did i do wrong" constantly and especially when u die.. you learn faster. Aimless playing will never improve a player
  • Appreciate your video, I've played support since the first day I play dota most because of my low-mechanic and slowhand 😄. But the more i play support, the more I love it and understand the role's importance and how a support can dictate the game since minute 1
