IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

So I kind of hate this already: http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1zusth/new_mode_incoming_balanced_draft/

Feels like it will artificially force a meta onto the players... I dunno, I guess we'll have to see how it really works.

Yeah, doubt any noticeable amount of players will play that mode.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

I like the change, being the 1 in 1+4 games is most of the time really shitty.

I never considered it to be a problem, though there have been exceptions.

It's completely random anyways, you can have good stacks and bad stacks, just like you can have good players and bad players.

If you read the comments, Cyborgmatt says that it has been in the game for months, but has never been implemented. Likely never will be.

I think Alurr needs to start charging you for boosting your rating. I mean it's practically the same effect as his normal boosting service.

Does anyone ever feel like, their rating is higher than where it should be? I just went on a 200-point loss streak, and I made so many odd choices and mistakes to make those deserving losses. It was just a long string of games where I couldn't support well, which I almost exclusively want to do in games. Couldn't process the game as quick as I used to, decision-making and stuff, not just idling around or wandering aimlessly. I can only play every other weekend for like, maybe 4 hours total, so I want to only play ranked games, but with that amount of play time, I can only feel myself getting worse and worse. I think the only thing keeping this from being a blog is the question at the beginning. lmk if that's not enough.

i feel my rating should be 6k but it is only 4k, valve probably messed something up.

To be more serious i think 500 mmr more or less is not really significant (might be at higher rating than mine), i have mmr swings both ways quite often 200 mmr is very little to be concerned about imo.

After my first 10 games, I was at 4300'ish. Never really went above or below it till today. I don't know, the amount of points didn't really reflect how many games I lost, or how poorly I played. At least that's how I see it. I gotta take a break or something.

Was it ever all solo ranked players? I've only gotten to play ranked over the past month or so.

Play unranked when you have 4!

No, when Ranked was introduced they removed the Solo-Only option.
Personally I never cared, 4 stacks can be good, 4 stacks can be bad, I don't think completely removing the option to play Ranked as 4 is the right solution.
