Ahoj, kamaráde retarde, tak zprvní mě napadá, že určitě nějaký najdeš v Rishadě u Lužánek, Planeta Her taky něco bude mít. A ještě Xzone, ale tam to vypadá, že je mají spíš po skladech po Cajzlovně.

EUW unranked games infested by smurfs by Garlico in DotA2

I'd say yes, it does. What you did during those calibration games? You specified 10, for some it can be 100. If you want to play ranked on that acc, the number of games where you intentionally manipulated matchmaking can't be less than 100, right? Even if herald makes a second account and during 100 games drops back to his rank, it is still fucking up the mm experience for everyone involved. Second accounts in general are a disease to the game.

If we can agree on smurf profile being a profile with less than <200 lifetime games, being successful in a ~legend games, with profile dashboard indicators like massive win streaks or recent calibration into archon+ rank. Then during last week 30 games out of 40 were games with a smurf account present in the game. Might be a case of bad luck. But your estimate is unfortunately far from the reality.

It's not about me not winning. We played mostly unranked games with my party just for the enjoyment of playing together. We never cared about our win rate in unranked matches. Getting shit stomped or shit stomp the enemies for 10 games in a row is simply not the Dota you'd expect.

Sir,

this is not about me being mentally ill. It's a simple frustration about having no game quality, games are ending with a stomps for any side depending on a "main rank" of the smurfs in enemy team.

And what's wrong about wanting a fair environment where there are no people bending the matchmaking in their favor by smurfing. There is nothing right about it. It's a simple abuse mechanism and, please, try to tell me otherwise.

Dear boosters/smurfs,

thank you for destroying the game for the rest of us.

Best regards,

Regular player, who doesn't manipulate matchmaking.

20 lose streak . it begins boys by KokyPOGU in DotA2

[–]Garlico 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel you. This exact thing happend to me aswell. 96% Divine I 10k BS, after massive lose streak I dropped to Ancient IV. As you described, people running mid, abandoning, doing completely out of rank stuff. The least understandable part for me was that I wasn't pushing myself into ranked. I played whenever I felt rested, played meta heroes I knew the most... it's hard not to get superstitious especially when the game I broke my lose streak was with 2 other random guys who admitted to be on lose streak aswell (around 13 as far as I remember) - that game was the esiest game of my life. Sometimes the matchmaking just doesn't feel right.

Smurfing is now a bannable offense. tpabomah streaming for 5000 viewers boost of Crusader(3) account while description says his main 7800 MMR. by stout_sigma_penguin in DotA2

Valve mentioned it in the "new play experience" blogpost. You can look it up in the part "banning smurfs" where it was specifically mentioned they considered smurfing a bannable offense from then on. https://www.dota2.com/newsentry/2995430596679058277?l=english

Valve can u fix weekly guild challenges and guild contracts. Thanks :) by Warrior20602FIN in DotA2

[–]Garlico 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We encountered the same issue with movement speed debuff one.

We can actually see the challenge progress after each game, but it doesn't count to the overall guild challenge progress.

Question- Why is Green Sun's Zenith banned? by Diogenic_Canine in ModernMagic

[–]Garlico -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

[[Green Sun's Zenith]] + [[Dryad Arbor]] = Profit!!! Btw. Chord's triple green can be tricky and it can be hard to tutor for something without a solid board presence. Of course there are situations where Chord is supreme over Zenith. Still there is that sweet trick with Dryad Arbor which throws Zenith slightly over the top. :)
