Weren't there console commands to tell you ur MMR in steam?

Very early in the beta, it was quickly patched out of the game.

Sounds really cool but are they doing this with Valve's permission or are these "illegal" servers like they were for BW. Since this basically goes against what Valve want (public MMR etc) and they basically shut down dotabuff for implementing an open MMR system, I wonder how they will take to iccup? I take it these games don't show up on your dota profile, so I suppose what you do in custom games is none of valve concern, but it would be interesting to find out what Valve say

I don't think (at least I hope) it won't be a problem. Valve is against other people assigning ratings on real (as in battle-point-earning, matchmaking-button-within-Dota) matchmaking games.

On the other hand, this is a third-party, opt-in system that would be assigning ranks based on games played only in that system. If all ICCUP is doing is managing private lobbies (like d2ware/DotaCR already do for alternate modes) and maintaining stats for those games, they shouldn't run into the kind of trouble dotabuff did (since they were instead running these stats on "real" matchmaking games).

This is not bad at all, client is sleek, you can see your stats for specific heroes on your account page, and it has a pretty extensive match details page for every game played (Example match )

If it is with BW, yes I did, but that has nothing to do with Dota 2

There is an European channel, which is atm, as expected filled with Russian (CIS) people, but in near future there might be Europe only server which wont allow Russians (CIS) speakers to be a part of it, which leads to playing some good Dota 2 while you can actually understand your teammate

I like this move by ICCUP very much. Their server was the pinnacle of BW laddering to say the least. I won't be joining in the fun though, because I prefer playing on Europe West or South Africa.

I dont see the point in this, tbh. Valve has made a much better system. Gone are hte days where you looked to find better options to play than war3 servers for dota 1. Time has moved on quite a bit. I cant see this lasting long. People need their hats.
Whats the altitude?

Think of it as an in-house system that offers specific services that Valve currently does not. I think this is a good thing. It helps Valve see systems at work that might work on the general client and they might possibly add something like this in the future. While a lot of people love Dota 2 hats, not everybody needs them.

This is also free publicity for Dota 2 to the Brood War and Warcraft DotA users from ICCUP.

Dunno how Valve seems about this, and I don't think its gunna stay, specially with the launch without steam thing. I think this will be much better suited for Dedicated Servers.

So, my experience as a non-ukr-russ speaking person from the first 5 games. The matchmaking is better than the one Valve has atm, this solely speaking for solo players due to the fact that the balance is done by points + rank and you actually see the balance being done before the game starts. The bad part is that the most of the community is either from Russia or Ukraine. I the 5 games I played, I encountered massive russians only in 1 game (which I lost ofc). The rest 4 games were far better than the high tier of Valve. I have experience in both high and very high tiers on Valve but due to being a casual player (2-3 games a day) I can't mantain the win ratio/won games(nr.) for the Valve "very high" tier. So it's a good place for solo players that don't talk much (chatwheel ftw!) that are quite casual but high skilled. So if you get matched with people from Ukraine, you'll be rather ok, but again.. someone call a ghost and bomb Russia. KTHXBYE!

Because despite what a vocal minority wants people to think Ranked Matchmaking/Ladders are a huge part of competitive gaming and if the developer doesn't offer it natively someone else will build it.

Also Valve matchmaking is pretty shit.
