The reason I ask is that I quit for about three months. I recently came back (MMR of 4.7, I'm scrub I know), and it's much much worse than I remember it being. I remember when MMR first came out, games were not bad. You had the occasional game that devolved into flaming, but now it seems EVERY GAME where it looks like the team might lose devolved into a flame-fest. I really feel like it got a lot worse than it was 3 months ago, so I am just wondering whether MMR has inflated to the point where I am no longer functionally 4.7k, but would be in a lower bracket relative to 3 months ago. | ||

But yeah, I haven't gotten anything good again despite a thousand more games since then. Just a rare like every couple hundred games. | ||

AFAIK no its not since MMR is a 0-sum game. If u win X mmr the other team loses the same amount. So unless the average skill is sinking (via more newbs entering the game) faster than its rising via people simply learning more about dota... | ||

They random PL straight off the bat. Our picks, WR rubick, invoker, silencer and DROW... a drow that cant last hit vs a centaur offlaner and an invoker who fed pudge. GG I really hate it when people buddy up and pick carries. Your on TS/Skype and u decide to pick the hard carry and mid. Fuck the other guys ur playing with, they can carry ur balls. GG right there. Double midas druid that can't micro 2 seperate units. Yes that's 1 more than 1. Can't do it for shit. Not fun, not clever, not doto. | ||

Don't know if that has anything to do with Dota or just assholes being assholes. How are you on 4.7k and not prepared to mute people after their first flame? My QQ: In an all random, I get mirana, rest of team is Meepo, Skywrath, Undying, and Pugna. Ok, me mid, Safelane/ jungle Meepo, undying hardlane, and two supports that are ranged and with reasonably flexible skills. Shouldn't be too bad for an all random. Undying (Who will now be called Chucklefuck 1, of CF1), says he doesn't know how to play this hero and wants to swap. Why CF1 plays All Random and is afraid of trying new heroes is beyond me. Pugna (Chucklefuck 2/CF2) offers to trade him. I was kind of not confident when creeps spawned and 3 of our heroes were still in well waiting for their guides to load or whatever. They go to lanes, with CF1 now on Pugna and CF2 now on Undying. CF1 is the worst player I've ever seen. He went naked energy booster into arcanes, ran between all 3 lanes and fed hard, and then abandoned even after I started getting some ganks and giving good moonlight shadow setups for meepo-skywrath. CF2 is almost as bad. He skilled pretty normally and built items like mek and arcanes, but he might as well not have since the only active I saw him use all game was decay. No tombstone. No mek. Nothing. The only keys I think he has on his keyboard are q, enter, and n, o, and b to flame people when he dies constantly in offlane. That game was beyond trash tier. I always get scared when I have a random game in MMR hell | ||

Drow shows up pretty fat at min 12 - 13 or so, starts fighting. Team is shocked and appalled. "Omg report slark couldnt offlane vs solo drow" was a good game. | ||

Edit: And how come every time when I click queue and take 2 minutes to go to the bathroom matchmaking happens to find 10 people AND have the 'waiting for players' time out, making me wait 3 minutes before I can queue, yet the times I just sit here waiting it can take upwards of 6 minutes. | ||

Then all goes terribly, terribly wrong. Our SD repicks into an ember spirit, buys no items, and starts pinging the woods by our pull camp (we're dire). When someone reasonably inquires what in the fuck he's thinking with his pick, he replies "for their carry I defense" or something along those lines. Okay this is all going terribly downhill but we might be able to salvage it. I mean, their team is greedy as fuck too (Puck mid, Razor offlane, furi jungle, safe PL + VS), so if we can control our lane maybe it will be alright. Noooooope, the ember single pulls a 5-6 times, Razor gets an assload of XP and farm, and puck starts ganking with furion TP support. We lose top, and we lose it *hard*. They're diving my poor medusa with 3+ less than 5 minutes in, and we're getting crushed. In the meantime, our ember spirit is walking around with a naked ring of health, working his way up to the naked battlefury which shall surely turn the tide of battle in our favor. My CM has long since abandoned me to go leech xp somewhere safer. In the end, we lost in just under 29 minutes, our Ember spirit never bought boots and ended the game with a perseverance, quelling blade, TP scroll and a broadsword. Our batrider played pretty well, our invoker wasn't particularly useful, and our cm was just helpless in that kind of game, as was I. But that ember repick... Holy shit what a game ruiner that guy is. Painful game, boys. Painful game. http://dotabuff.com/matches/649937712 | ||

That last game had the perfect storm of disgust: 1. A captain who picked terribly 2. A pair on my team who spent the entire game bitching out the other three people and sucking up each other 3. A 5 stack on the other team STOP forcing me to play with or against stacks when I want to solo queue. Its invariably a horrible experience. Yeah I agree dude. Honestly, soloQ was a more enljoyable experience than ranked.Ranked is the same bullshit as non-ranked with the same randoms and bullshit picks, it's just you run into more people getting mad and crying over bad play. I don't think trying to segregate the player pool into arbitrary groups "more tryhard" and "less tryhard" does that much. SoloQ doesn't solve the unsolvable pub problems, but I do recall having a slightly more pleasant experience in soloQ. There are a lot of ways stacks can mess up your experience. | ||

From that point on, do you: A) Roar the sven B) Roar the 3k HP pudge from highground when nobody else is there, because you are scared of being hooked C) Roar the support omniknight after he has used all his spells D) Roar the support abbadon who has his ulti ready E) Walk into their whole team and die F) alternate B, C, D & E until the game is over Someone on my team failed this test. | ||

Then to compensate for this they instalock mid because getting a head start in XP is the only way they won't be hopelessly outlaned, outleveled and outfarmed. Then you just slowly lose. the same way 99% of the playerbase can't draft and makes nonsense balance suggestions | ||

The thing is that no one in the team even played THAT bad these two games. In the first game, our mid doom got mek early, our LD had 4-0 after 8 minutes and I got my aghanims on Viper pretty fast. Still, we have this Pugna who flamed the laning before we even began to play, and then proceeded to go solo all game while we took rax after rax and won. In my second game, I'm not really sure why our Nyx started to flame his trilane and our offlane Cent (didn't see them making any major mistakes worth flaming). But for some reason, he started to flame me, even if I had 40-50 cs ~at the 15 minute mark with Sniper against Kunkka. Apparently, I'm supposed to use my ulti on all five enemy heroes simultaneously. We also lost all our t2 towers pretty early and he started to bitch about everything, like how I failed mid and so on. I eventually ended up with 15-2-11 and carried the game together with Naix who also managed to get farmed since we could turtle, and because their Morph were stupid. Nyx had dagon level 1 and arcane boots. | ||
