for example in sc2, i got in gm SEA but was mid-high masters NA. But you can't claim GM coz GM SEA is a joke. So my 4k rating in AU, would that be the same as 4k in NA? Because the player pool on AU servers would be a lot less than the EU/NA east and west. I suppose it's different as a team game, because I get stuck with retards against retards. The lesser of downies win. | ||

Firstly and probably most important, if you have a high rating you want to tell people about it, if you have an average rating, meh. Secondly, quite a few people play dota. 1% can easily be hundreds of thousands of people. | ||

In one of my solo games, our captain(fastest clicker in the team) forgot to last pick into a random chen. Lineup is not suitable for it and captain decided to play it(poorly). Captainship also may use some moderation maybe highest ELO guy can be captain etc.. | ||

My guess is that since rank just came out, people still feel awkward about it, maybe in couple months, people are gonna be more open about it and it's business as usual.

In SC2 and LoL, there're a lot more people who are in silver, gold, plat,v...v.. After my first rated solo queueueu game I am pleased to inform you I appear to have a unsure ranking of 2900 ^.^ Sure I'm only one person, but if I can be mediocre so can hundreds of other people. But more seriously, I'd hardly worry about what random people tell other random people what their mmr rating is. End of the day it is simply a number and if indeed more then 5% of the playerbase has 4k rating then obviously a 4k rating doesn't mean you are in the top 5%. ^.^ AFAIK valve hasn't published any real in-depth information about the new rating system yet beyond the marketing blurb, so end of the day we are not even sure what the number exactly means. I mean, we obviously know what the number tries to represent but we don't know the distribution or longer term plans. Who knows, perhaps after some large enough number of people have gotten their rating they will adjust the scoring curve to compensate for the results. i.e. too many people end up with a high score so we adjust the scores to better reflect the reality of this. Not very likely but who knows. At the end of the day the number by itself is meaningless, it's only the difference between different scores that gives it any kind of meaning. I am sure the system is accurate enough to determine that a player with a score of 100 is worse at dota then someone with a score of 6000. But other then that I'm not going to base anything on scores people get until we're a few months further and hopefully have a lot more data, information and analysis about how the system works. | ||

Then he started to insult everybody so i muted him, but soon enough the started to feed them duel kills on purpose. Despite that we almost won the game but in the end it was too much to handle :s Kind of frustrating | ||

I assume it's going to normalize over time like actual MMR, but for now my games are just awful. | ||

The goal is 1%, but i believe there are way more people above 4081. Lets just wait until we get the numbers, becuz i think they will tinker with the MM eventually so that they will get a nice standard deviation in statistics (i.e. i mean that gauss curve with the 3Q rule and stuff). This will ensure a nice %-wise elite, but dont automatically assume its 1% at this moment. | ||

i'm losing MMR for winning by playing the offlane/support roles. lost 600 mmr in a split push game against furion and tinker as a CM, and i'm assuming that buying wards/ hard support doesn't count towards invidivual performance nor does playing as the guy who only dies on your team while getting a teamwipe. The individual thing is just bad. | ||
