    How is it that I started the season calibrated at archon 6, quickly moved up to 7, then lost a bunch of games. Recently I've been winning and ranked up twice, yet I haven't won as many as I lost previously

    And I have ranked up twice.

    Also my mmr started at 3k now it is 2.9 yet I am legend 1. You can't explain that

    i yoink it then splur go off

      mmr requirements for medals are fluid and change depending on some factors, and medals below divine/immortal don't mean shit anyway

        so the medals work on a curve then?

          dunno how it works, send a msg to gabe about it

            to rank up all you need is to be able to have a high impact in games.

            even if you lose, if you do 40% of the dmg then you're gonna get ranked up, especially in lower brackets. it helps to combat smurf detection as well

              Not true! ^

              It's based on the active player base so the requirements may change day by day.

                Smurf detection is a different story. And it actually works somehow. The problem is when you do too good and Gaben send mmr assasins because system sees you as smurf.

                  The requirements for ranks go down as the season progresses, during the new season I remember divine 1 used to be above 5k and now it's somewhere around 4700

                    I believe the medals are percentage based, so lower requirements for the medals, indicate that more lower skilled accounts exists, either via new players, natural noobs, or verified smurf accounts

                      It seems to be highly individual because i noticed if i lose win lose win lose win, the required mmr to reach a certain medal lowers.
                      I dont remember the exact numbers but when i got legend 3 i think the required mmr had changed with like 50-100 mmr.

                      Its almost like they noticed, they this dude cant climb anymore so lets lower the required standard for legend 3 so he be happy.
                      But then again everyone who calibrate gets different medal with the same mmr, i got archon 7 with 3225 mmr while i read other people get Legend 3 with lower mmr.
                      And then we have the party+solo medal which fucks up the system even more.

                      Now im down at 3100 mmr and im not even close have a percentage under my medal.

                      The reason why the mmr change to reach a certain medal might be cause the system compare my medal to the 9 other players and in most games i got the lowest medal, its rare there are 10 people with the same medal most got way higher than the actual mmr. I would say average is legend 6 in my games.
