On April 30 2011 11:00 paper wrote: Metagame implies there are no optimal strategies (as the game has evolved to a very high level and you need external, metagame inputs to win) and that "sub-optimal" strategies (under other circumstances) become highly effective in countering strategies previously regarded as reigning supreme. You said it yourself: if there's a shift toward "push-oriented" (meaning that these kinds of strats are optimal) there is no metagame anymore. Silly D8ms, just use the words 'game' or 'gameplay' instead The strategic phenomena that characterize events that also otherwise known as "metagame" cannot be explicitly surmised to be affected by such a differential without a sound argument for the existence of such, as well as a sufficient body of evidence. Making assumptions such as these tell us that not only do you not actually understand what the "metagame" actually is, let alone the game, but that you come up with generalized explanations to determine a characterization of the differential on the so called "metagame" for the purpose of legitimizing an opinion because the "metagame" at this moment in time cannot be objectively discretized [1]. As such, statements in the manner such as to say something about the "metagame" without its establishment, are insubstantial, irrelevant, and should be discarded.

Bad teammates do happen but remember the other team is equally likely to get them so given enough games you should be where you deserve to be not really when u have griefers in ur team that feed on purpose by using nymph ult in fontain and nobody want to kick them cause they all agree on that nothing you can do really | ||

Of course, you only remember when it happened to you, but I assure you there's also quite a few games that you won ''for free''. | ||

Bad teammates do happen but remember the other team is equally likely to get them so given enough games you should be where you deserve to be short term nah long-term you have a point but sometimes shit just happens i recall losing 8 games in a row (a fair amount of mmr), where 7 of those were 4v5's since the start (d/c on our side, no remake), and 1 was a stunning display of feeding of a sidelane (so that their duo lane chars were both outlevelling our solo) edit: oh yeah, the 9th game, that we won, was also a 4v5 since the start. felt exceptionally good to win that; nevertheless, there was some serious S2 server hate coming my way that day. | ||

Oh wait, maybe you're onto something. | ||

So if everyone else in your bracket is much worse than you your mmr should increase over time. | ||

anyone have any ideas on what to do when a friend doesnt wanna pay up $$? i lent it a long while back, it's not even that much (a couple of hundred), so it's more of a principle thing for me cause it's been like a year+ now at least i learned to never lend money to friends =x | ||
