Well I'm certain nobody other than Valve had the crazy idea of trying to match stack variance rather than just matching stack mean MMR.

I think it's a stupid idea, personally, but if you need an explanation for why Valve's matchmaking sucks, I think that's the closest you'll get to one.

I think I've heard somewhere that it also take kills/game length/assist/deaths and stuff into account.

From my understanding those only apply to smurf detection in your first 10-15 games.

And as much as you can complain about DotA 2 matchmaking as a whole, it's damn good at sniffing out smurfs.

How many smurfs do you have yango? Like 50?

the problem isnt the amount of time their lagging is thats when you queue up in the evening, you are risking a lag spike at some time in some game. even if it lasts for 10 seconds, losing a game because of that feels like a big deal and its hugely annoying. even if that equates to 99% up time, it feels as dangerous as 50% uptime.


Keep in mind that 99% uptime corresponds to 1.6 hours down per week. So if the number really is 99% I don't think we'd see so many complaints. But lag spikes probably do not count against an "uptime" statistic either.

Without trying to extrapolate anything I have personally recorded 6 hours of "down (as in nearly unplayable lagged out) time this last week. Considering that I am only trying to play about 3h a day with slightly more during sunday that is approximatly 6 hours out of 25.

As I said, don't get me wrong, the server might be perfectly stable the other hours, but that doesn't really help me if I have a narrow window where I have the time to sit down and play 2-3 games in a row (most of the time during the day I might be called away pretty randomly so I don't try to play because going afk 10mins into a game sucks).

The service in EUW has been pretty shoddy for a while, let us hope that the new Amsterdam Data Center will actually fix this next year.

I agree, DotA2 has by far the worst matchmaking out of any Dota-type game I've played, it's the main reason I stopped playing it. HoN's was way better and we had good games all the time, even if I queued with a friend of mine who was 500+ higher than me in mmr. I think LoL matchmaking is mostly fine even though some of the bronze 5 + Diamond 2 duo queuers mix things up quite a bit.

Observing 6 hours of downtime already shows that the uptime isn't 99%, unless it's perfectly fine for the next 4 weeks. Which is what I was getting at with my post -- I don't think the uptime is actually 99% (disclaimer: I don't play on EUW so I can't say personally how bad the servers are)

depends what you consider downtime. A game where you have 2-3-4-5 bouts of 30s-1min lag breaks might be considered 1 hour of downtime, but really the servers are up they are just shitty

99% uptime?

It's hard to say how often there's lag issues, because you don't particularly notice when it's not happening - if somebody told me that it was less than 20% of games though, i'd probably laugh in their face

Who is kaceytron, why does she have 5000 viewers despite sucking at the game, and why is her Twitch chat about 5x more toxic than usual?

Currently she's talking about how she only plays female characters, wtf hahaha.

90% certain she just trolls, and I'm pretty sure she's aware she gets these viewers because of her boobs. Free money is free money, who can really blame her?

Yeah, just watched her stream for like 10 minutes, obvious troll is obvious but occasionally really fucking hilarious (esp. when she talked about playing "league of legions")

"you wanna keep top lane characters in top lane, and you wanna keep bottom lane characters in bottom lane, that's really important".

edit: not sure what's funnier, the trolling or the amount of idiots who aren't getting it hahahahahahahahahahaa

And the internet is stupid enough to throw money at her. It's hilarious.

I'm also trying to decide if the "gamer gurl lolz" persona is just part of the cash grab or actually brilliant social commentary.

Why's everyone complaining? I thought it was hilarious. Almost choked when she bought the second void staff. It's obviously a humor stream. That's a form of entertainment as well.

The massive outrage on Reddit is arguably more entertaining than the stream itself.
