Funner Fact: Using the word "metagame" is viable in the current competitive metagame.


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.

You need to apply for a vouch on the dc forums. Your application should include a couple of replays of scrims / clanwars in -cm/-cd mode showing that you know how to do your role well / have good game sense. If you don't have people that know you well enough, then you'll probably have to join a vouch game in addition to posting a vouch request.

I am looking to boost my mmr a bit. I went from 1680 to 1595 in the last few days and the lower you go the more retards that you cant carry you seem to get. Also if anyone could throw me a clan invite that would be great.

Don't you think if your mmr goes down it's your fault? If you really are as good as you say your mmr will naturally go up to where it should be. 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

Yes, but after you play a good ammount of games, assuming you never ruin the game yourself, the chance the opposite team has griefers is higher than the chance you have griefers in your own team.

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''.

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.

No, when I lose I'd like to think it's your fault sunye. Oh wait, maybe you're onto something.

Actually if we assume everyone aside from you in your psr range is awful then the other team has 5 slots to be filled by bads while your team only has 4 due to you. So if everyone else in your bracket is much worse than you your mmr should increase over time.

so
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
