And there was a player who had had lost MMR for twelve games in a row, and though he had spent all his living on coaching, he could not be taught to play Dota by anyone. He came up behind Arteezy and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately his MMR increased by 25. And Arteezy said, “Who was it that touched me?” When all denied it, Peter Dager said, “Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!” But Arteezy said, “Someone touched me, for I perceive that MMR has gone out from me.” And when the player saw that he was not hidden, he came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why he had touched him, and how he had immediately improved at Dota. And Arteezy said to him, “Son, your faith has made you not a noob; go in peace.”
