Hey guys, I’m continuing where I started yesterday on the comparison between the players from these respectable mmrs; so if you haven’t be sure to check out my previous post!
So onto the next point, itemization. I have realized that 5k players generally do not stray away from builds that much. And even if they do, it might not be the best option for the game they are currently in. 7k players tend do build items in reaction to the opponents faster than the other ranks do. For example, we commonly see a 16-20minute aeon disk build on cores if there is a faceless void in the opponent team, or anyone with high insta kill abilities.
Next up would be securing runes. I feel that alot of players nowadays do not comprehend how important securing the runes are these days. While many 5k players will try to fight over the runes, they do not accurately judge whether or not it’s beneficial to die for the runes sometimes. 7k players make better judgements regarding that, as they will have long drawn fights at the runing areas when it is appropriate to, especially in the earlier game phases.
Of course, last but not least, is their individual skills on certain heroes. 7k players are 7k and not 5k because they have incredible control over their own hero. The understandings of their own heroes surpasses most of those who are below 6k, which makes them incredibly difficult to play against if our skills are not on par.
