Pure tells how to quickly boost MMR in Dota 2

Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko recommends to quickly gain MMR on the first position in Dota 2 by focusing on the battle with creeps in the first 50 minutes of the match, and fight with opponents should start when the player feels confident of superiority.

The pro-player shared his respective opinion on the official Tundra Esports page on X.

“If you're playing in the first position, to be honest, you should play PvE until at least the 50th minute.

Actively avoid battles until you can collapse them 1x5.”

It's worth noting that this style of play is typical of players like Egor “Nightfall” Grigorenko and Oliver “skiter” Lepko, who are often criticized by onlookers for being indecisive on the professional scene in favor of personal stats. Nevertheless, this approach can be effective for ranked matches, as opposed to aggressive play, when the carry often takes risks for the sake of the team's overall success.

Recall that earlier Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko commented on the mass replacements of players in Dota 2 teams after the completion of The International 2024 tournament.
