Don't you play a decent amount of dota, why is that disgusting or surprising.

I guess I know people with like 3-5k games and are still under 3k MMR or just barely over

dude i'm fucking awful at this game, i think i lose midlane every time i go in it, if i'm top 1%, the 99% is so horrifyingly bad i cannot even comprehend it. It must be like me when i was playing WC3 pubs on bnet.. Disgusting D:

I still can't believe that I'm meant to be top 1% at my 4.1k rating when I'm completely fucking awful.

When it comes to active players that take this game somewhat seriously I'd imagine I'm just slightly better than average.

When I play solo, my Winrate is near 60%;
Playing solo sucks hard tho.

i have made the mods chuckle. and they were clearly related to the discussion so idk what you're on about.

that mmr post was interesting, but 100% unofficial.

you have to opt into the dotabuff mmr thing, or at least i did. so that's two strikes bc you also have to know about and sign up for dotabuff too.

I'm with Sn0_man that its likely causes by the number of abandoned accounts.

Also, you may think you're awful but if you take a trip down to the 2K trench and you will be reminded of the true meaning of the word.

ya i've been largely playing ranked games and it's been terrible. all of my friends don't have vacation or days off during the week so i'm relegated to solo queuing..figured i'd try boosting my ranked mmr but it has lead only to frustration and anger.

makes me realize how far i've come while still being shitty.

You also can't be banned from one TL site without being banned from all of them.

How would it be related to abandoned accounts if it was about games played? Abandoned accounts dont play games.

The issue is that it has no way to take into account that higher MMR players play more than lower MMR players. So high MMR numbers are inflated.

Yes, Very High being like 12% is absurdly high.

which means it's even scarier that the skill gap in very high games is actually enormous

i would think that most abandoned accounts wouldn't even make it into playing ranked, since they wouldn't have reached level 13

That would involve him playing the game in question, rather than debating it forums. The one thing I have learned about folks like him is that they talk a lot and play every little.

The data isn't ranked only. At least it doesnt say so anywhere.

The average ranked player should be slightly higher, but still not like 2k higher like some people thought.
