Does the 2v2 ranking take your 1v1 into account? - Page 2

Wasn't there a story of Huk/Select/TTOne's 3v3 team taking forever to find each match during their placement because their individual MMR's were so high?

When I played placements with Jinro (offracing) we faced really good players even after losing. We went 3-2 in placements only playing good opponents and got placed in plat.
When I play with not so skilled friends we end up facing bad opponents and with one 4:4team we went 3-2 and ended up in bronze.
So 1:1 rating seems to play a part in atleast the placements. But I have not played enough games to see a trend in the long run. However I heard about people getting stuck in low bronze and only playing really good players in 1:1 too so it might be that bug if it's still around. Apparently it had something to do with copper being removed.

The op should learn his ally some buildorder or atleast a cheese so you can win atleast a few games.
EDIT: I'm learning a newbie friend to 7zd on hunters in bw.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

NO IT DOESNT. They learned their mistakes from wc3. people bombed their 1v1 so they can pwn noobs in team games so no.

It doesaffect your initial games, as they explained in the Secrets of the Masters discussion at Blizzcon 2010



skip to 6:15

It's initial bootstrapping for the early matches, ie. if you and your partner are both diamond in another team/bracket, you would face harder teams to begin with than if you and your partner were both bronze.

You will need to lose a lot more games to get to a lower bronze/silver level

Apparently not, just lost 23 points to a 3v3 where 2 of the players had like 1200 wins and 100 losses. Of course they ling/marine spammed all their games.

This is good info. I am pretty well in Diamond, but my girlfriend sucks (lol), so when we do arranged 2v2 we face medicre people and lose. Glad that it doesn't read/modify my MMR based off those matches.

It does. In early release with good 2v2 stats I have met Kas,Goody,Satiini, etc when they were top diamond and I top-95 platinum with bad wr. Now in top diamond 2v2 we meet sometimes top 1v1 players playing their 2v2 placements.

If your really into doing 2vs2 then i'd really advice like you said before to buy a new account and play on that everytime your going to play 2vs2 with her. The system really just puts you vs your own rankings for the majority of the matches (i've faced this as well with my irl friends).

Only 1v1 is affected by 1v1.

Ok, I have a hard time believing that it doesn't.

Me and my friends have a 4v4 team, and we almost exclusively now get Diamond players in our matchups even though we are a Bronze team respectively. Our highest 1v1 player is a low ranked Plat player.

I play 3v3 randoms with my cousin. He has 2200 points in 1v1. He gets less points than I do when we play 3's together even though I have 1000 more points than him in 3v3.

Good job blizzard at keeping that secret they totally bring your other leagues into play.
I said good day sir!

1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 are all separate MMRs according to blizzcon peeps

someone at blizzard once said that that your mmr from other leagues is used to determine your opponents for your placement matches. once your finnish them other leagues stop having any effect.

cant remember where they said it but it was in an interview ages ago (around about launch)

Ok so its been cleared up. Now I have a question to continue the discussion.

Does MMR from one Bnet server affect another? Cause it was like this as well

Exact score and league as well if i recall it right.Me and my partner were Diamonds in 2v2 for SEA (1v1 3v3 as well). All our five placement matches are against 1.6k + Diamonds for 2v2s during our placement for US. It definitely felt odd for us since we weren't expecting it lol.
