Higher MMR? in General Discussion
[Lk].Zano

    Since I have nothing to do I started thinking...maybe I was put in a starting MMR higher than what I had been playing in normal matchmaking.

    My first suspicion came from looking at my Viper games, I have a high winrate with him, but I noticed that my Viper is very purple. Then I remembered that in my first post-calibration match I basically got carried to victory. Detail is, I was playing Jogornot and it doesn't feel good to be carried by better teammates when you are playing him. Well, either that or the other team was significantly worse, yes 3.9k scrub here who can't tell whether he has better teammates or suckier enemies.

    Other details I've noticed is people don't panic as they used to with Lich and Warlock ulties, which again, I suspect is because I'm probably getting more experienced players, but at the same time, they still don't know how to deal with Weaver, so the difference cannot be THAT big.

    So, has anybody else felt that? Is it possible that I was actually placed in a higher MMR than my invisible normal matchmaking one or are those details just a side effect of people tryharding more in solo ranked matches?

        everyone knows only the worst scum of dota 2 play normal matches nowadays. Ranked is not the try hard matches, it is the semi competent matches

            Oh yeah its REALLY fun to play ranked, really REALLY fun to see people bitching and crying because they lost MMR.

                    dota without passionate flamming would be like playing chess in a eldery residence.
