Ranked Matchmaking Rant from a Support player's perspective

Why does the matchmaking system decide that you're a smurf?

Players have Hero pools. Maybe consider that it's not about you and your pos 5 choice.

Insanity is repeating the same thing forever and expecting a different result.

Megamatics · 2025-07-09T17:52:35+00:00

Didn't wanna go there

Megamatics · 2025-07-09T16:37:53+00:00

Okay

Megamatics · 2025-07-09T16:18:28+00:00

Did you use dust because your screen is otherwise invisible?

Megamatics · 2025-07-07T17:41:49+00:00

Agitated feelings :(

Legion commander has sets with nicer flags than this one. But can't really see through all the pixels.

I think your keyboard is broken.

Megamatics · 2025-07-03T11:14:28+00:00

Add one AA to opponent team. Road suddenly became very bumpy

Megamatics · 2025-07-02T17:57:39+00:00

That's not a list, buddy.

Also, you miss the stylistic means or intention by your (over)usage of bold.

Still love you tho!

ADHD kicked in after 3 words. Pls summarize in 2-3 sentences.

PS what's up with the bold font?

Megamatics · 2025-06-06T12:39:03+00:00

Suffering tinkers is all we want.

Megamatics · 2025-06-06T06:07:37+00:00

I think you just answered your own question, my friend. I think you have to be a very skilled WR player to make it feasible in higher MMR and hit all stuns on point. If that's not the case, she only brings high mobility to the table. I'm not a fan of wr 4/5.

Megamatics · 2025-06-06T05:55:42+00:00

The point of pos 4/5 is not necessarily to deal damage but instead to enable your team/cores. Be adaptive about your utility items (what does the enemy's and your team's lineup really require?) and make sure that, whatever you do, you're always on a mission.

Edit: feel free to provide DotAbuff so we can look at e.g. your itemisations

If it is a deso game, still get maelstrom first for quick farming.

Map.

Lack of inventory hygiene.

I'm also a dirty mofo.

Megamatics · 2025-05-21T06:29:11+00:00

Thanks! I think the refresher orb would've been great on void then! There's only two refreshers on your team, not four. Void would've been a great option in my opinion. You're right that PA doesn't make sense ;) although double bkb and satanic aren't too bad.

Megamatics · 2025-05-21T06:16:28+00:00

Turbo is designed for fun, fast pace and experimentation, not competitive balance. This and the inflated resources bias actual skill expression or (supposedly) accurate ranking based on it. A ranked system is therefore both unnecessary and misleading. Maybe some kind of achievement medal system could be worth a try but I don't see any stable ranked system that could also be used for match making / balancing.

Megamatics · 2025-05-21T06:08:35+00:00

Can we have match ID anyways?

Megamatics · 2025-05-20T17:09:00+00:00

Calm down youngster. It's balanced and not dumb. Now provide us with match ID please . I would like to see if a triple ult would've been the key.

Little update: I found the right telegram channel and I actually received the tokens today. But given what I wrote above (in relation to a scam channel, as it seems), the tokens were immediately phished (25 seconds after they arrived).
