Nightfall: You Can Gain MMR with Any Hero You Play Well, Except at the Very Top

Aurora Gaming carry player, Egor “Nightfall” Grigorenko, stated that picking meta heroes for MMR boosting is only necessary at the highest ranks. During a stream hosted by BetBoom Team manager Luka “Lukawa” Nasuashvili, he mentioned that in other cases, it`s enough to play a hero you are proficient with.

He believes that you can raise your MMR playing any hero you are skilled at, unless you are aiming for the absolute top MMR, like top 100 in Europe or higher. At that level, playing meta heroes becomes important. According to Nightfall, the strongest carry heroes in the current meta are Phantom Assassin, Nature`s Prophet, and Tiny.

Earlier, Virtus.pro player Vladislav “Rein” Kosygin reached 15,000 MMR playing support. He also shared a list of heroes that helped him achieve this and noted that it`s better to narrow down your hero pool for efficient rank climbing.
