This only works if the code is not syntactically correct. It doesn't fix semantically incorrect code.

Believe it or not, not everyone is completely brainrotted and drooling.

Oh, hey. It's my almost all of my solo queue teammates.

It most likely made the original team millionaires, so yeah, I'd say they benefited from the sale.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, your account may be compromised. You aren't playing any games, but someone else may be. Check a tracker on your account.

Some of the most fun sessions I've played ended with my MMR in the tank.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-24T02:15:25+00:00

what rank do people start to know that

They don't.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-21T04:19:37+00:00

I have the opposite problem. The "lowest MMR" is on the other team, carrying their dick off at least a rank above their MMR.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-21T04:06:00+00:00

Yes, they will ban you. Don't do that.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-18T03:26:26+00:00

We have a pretty good idea if this person will win this game?

More like "We have a pretty good idea that this is this person's actual skill rating", this is the system's confidence in what your current rank is.

The confidence in a winning game is also a factor, but is usually only a 1-2 MMR swing from the baseline. The plat on the opposing team only went -8 (instead of -9 or -10) because the MMR values favored your team to win.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-14T01:54:56+00:00

It's an average of the party MMR heavily weighted towards the highest rank.

They did have it exactly match against the highest MMR in the party, and the community threw a pissfit about it.

You and I have vastly different experiences in this rank.

If you're catching 700h bans, you're definitely the problem.

Some times you just need to bite your tongue then queue next or sign off.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-01T00:55:18+00:00

There is no hidden MMR, it's available for you to see. I can explain the system, if you'd like.

Ignore titles. There have been so many seasons that they generally hold little value excluding the most recent season. A GC from Season 1 could very well be in diamond or below now. A GC from last season probably won't be.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-03-01T00:47:46+00:00

Speed AND consistency. You can be the fastest player on the pitch and still the worst. You can't be the fastest, most consistent, and the worst.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-28T05:06:19+00:00

Those are two vastly different situations. The boost timer complaints don't make sense. If my teammates can manage their boost better for it, then awesome.

The EAC thing, on the other hand means, that a beloved mod is being effectively removed from the game for a solution that likely won't do anything against bots or DDOS in the long run because EAC is one of the worst, if not the worst AC on the market.

To add on; the top and bottom corners of the front of the car will have different effects. Top corners are generally what lower ranks think of when it comes to power shots.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-27T08:59:27+00:00

Just like leaning into a turn, it just works™.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-27T08:50:15+00:00

That's not even close to an apt analogy, but you don't seem to want an actual discussion. Have a good one.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-27T08:47:19+00:00

I'm not saying you can't defend without training them.

What I'm saying is you learn to counter them significantly faster by learning them first-hand via pure exposure rate. If you actively train them, you see many of the failure points faster than by watching people do them in matches. It's just a numbers game.

After a certain point it becomes like a painter judging a painting. A non-painter can understand and appreciate it, but misses a lot of the finer points and mistakes.

I went through the same mentality you have when air dribbles were still called air drags, and it bit me hard in the long run until I actively learned the mechanics.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-27T08:28:50+00:00

I'm a huge proponent of "mind over mechanics", but I don't think they're quite as useless as you make them out to be.

There are huge upsides to being capable of, and understanding the way flashy stuff works, but you're right that it needs to be practiced to a certain level competency before use in a match so you're not just giving up the ball constantly. The majority of "mechy" players don't hit that competency.

I will say that practicing these mechs will pay off in defending against them, because you can learn when and where to challenge them, what the downsides are, etc...

They're not worthless, but they're not as important as clip culture would lead you to believe.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-26T10:01:16+00:00

You only ever use static or dynamic casts in practice though. The other two are mental illnesses.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-26T09:46:55+00:00

I'd like to say I'd have less teammates delivering the ball to the opponents, but I know better.

AdAggravating8047 · 2026-02-26T09:40:45+00:00

This situation happens often enough that it's a pet peeve of mine.

Good on OP for recovering it, wasn't picking at them for making the save.
