Basically, if you throw as much as possible when realize that you have competent teammates and play normally otherwise you will obtain the WINRATEDBRTMESPORTSPOINTSELO required for IXDL wait what? I dont get the Valve mmr part. What does it has to do with ixdl? | ||

Winratio has absolutely nothing to do with mmr. You can have a verry high (as in an actually very high, not the bracket "very high") mmr, and still only 50%, or even below. It all depends on which matches you win and lose, and not directly how many. | ||

Firebolt was vouched into IXDL due to recognition of his pro skills by known players despite a 48% winrate on ladder | ||
