I think only the rating of your allies and enemies and win/lose matter. I vaguely remember valve saying they didn't want to involve things like GPM and KDA etc because it would make nobody want to play support. How the formula works exactly nobody knows because they don't want people to cheat the system. | ||

Like it ussually happens with MMR systems, you should gain more points by winning against teams that are favored against you and lose more points if you lose against teams that you should be able to beat. | ||

We do know a little about it from what they've told us. Your KDA does matter at least in the first few matches for smurf detection, but I have no knowledge of its influence beyond the first few games. I would assume if they track individual performace for the first few games it at least plays a small role later on as well.

But they are better than everyone else, just like a master league player is better than the players in the leagues below them. That's sort of the whole point of MMR. Of course it doesn't mean they are infallible, a masters player can still lose to a plat occasionally especially in DotA where there are so many variables. | ||

Especially on QOP Such a no fun item, rather get orchid or sheep. the thing about bkb i notice is how in most cases you can never regret it's purchase as long as you're being smart about when to use it. that said, fun > efficiency.

New accounts are being tracked how? there was a teamliquid interview hotbid had with Erik where he briefly mentioned there was a system in place that detects whether a specific player seems out of place with the bracket he's in. | ||
