I think you should only play Lone Druid and Nyx in future...

That's because Valve is stupid and decided to use your hidden MMR as your baseline MMR rather than just resetting it so that the good players can be separated from the bad players quicker. For instance, if you stacked all the time prior to matchmaking, you will likely be complete ass in solo que because your rating is highly inflated.

I dont want to play Timbersaw for 100 games before having any decent MMR

For instance, if you stacked all the time prior to matchmaking, you will likely be complete ass in solo que because your rating is highly inflated. Your rating will still be closer than if they used the baseling for everyone. Unless you are very close to the starting MMR, your "tryhard" or "stack" rank will never be closer to it than it will be to your unranked MMR. Also, I don't think they ever said they didn't use the same kind of solo and team MMR separation they use now.

So the fastest way to put players in their correct rating region is to have everyone start at the same rating? And not use the existing hidden rating as a base? What awful reasoning...

The issue is not your MMR, is that there's no MMR to compare yourself to if everyone is reset and it would take a lot of games from everyone for it to be stable again.

Just played this game on Death Prophet, and I had something like 542 move speed. It was like having a constant haste rune.
|
I would guess it was 522 movespeed and that's exactly like a constant haste rune. It's definatelly fun.

Random mechanics question: If you pick up a Haste as a Bloodseeker with over 522 ms, does it slow you down?
(I assume not but you never know with Dota. . .)
|
Haste sets your ms to 522, so I'd assume you get slower.

Afaik Bloodseeker is the only hero that goes >522 so no, DP would've been capped at 522.

Yeah, I double checked. It was 522.
