And you can lose all this mmr with a bad streak. Although you can avoid the same situation as me by not randoming, and start picking good heroes every game.

Just wondering, did you grind with a selected pool of heroes?

60% WK. Pretty much what I do to recover from a streak.

Man you and I have the exact same goals, being calibrated to 3.6k, having friends who should be the same standard calibrated to 4k, feeling jealous, dropping, and finally fighting to 4k.

If you had posted that you have this goal earlier we might even play together!
