its not tobys fault as he doesn't make decisions at joindota, he is just a caster. It is the fault of the joindota management.

/e btw. the new vici gaming roster it looks like they photoshopped blacks head over rotk

proof ?

its from vg's twitter. and blacks.

Aren't the ladder relative to themselves when it comes to MMR? I mean, we can't compare the MMR numbers of EU to NA, right?

yes, 5000 MMR at NA servers might translate to a different skill level than 5000 MMR at EU servers.

Up or down? Before 3 server max I used to have 4 servers in my queue, all three EU and USE.

I just played the weirdest game. The enemy magnus disconnected at like 10 minutes and there was no pause, no all chat from the enemy team, nothing. It just went on for 5 minutes, the Magnus got an abandon and then the game kept going for like 15 minutes until we killed their throne while the remaining 4 players stayed in the game and continued playing like nothing happened. That was the first time that ever happened to me. Usually the team pauses, tries to wait for the player to reconnect, or at least all chats "report the fucker" or something like that. But this team just kind of gave up on everything. Weird stuff.

Its one of the things MMR was going to introduce was people trying to get higher MMR through cash money. Its why I always question if there are enough merits of a public ranked system.

A vote against a public rating system is a vote against the Esport economy. Remember what will happen to you on Esports Election day if you deprive people of their god given right to buy MMR.
