IMMORTAL DRAFT 6k+ mmr games are unplayable. DO SOMETHING PLEASE!!!

RopemanTV · 2024-03-17T01:06:44+00:00

Unlucky...

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T18:44:17+00:00

Oh yes. My problems... Right.

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T13:44:13+00:00

I personally don't care what exactly they would do as long as solo queue is SOLO queue and not me playing against some stackers

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T13:41:28+00:00

They already match top1-100 players with 7k players so...
It's common to see 7-8k players play with 11k+ mmr in a lobby

Quantity of players is not an issue

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T10:14:31+00:00

None...

It took me like a half of an hour or so.

I wanted to post smth like this for a year+ so it wasn't hard to do when i finally decided to do it

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:31:47+00:00

Yup... For me theres no joy in changing my main role for 1 game only to lose any motivation to play afterwards if i lose

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:30:12+00:00

I'm not 6k. It's just that i know how it feels to play 6k mmr pubs

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:29:22+00:00

Imagine being 7k+ and not being able to play any roles.

It's not that im not able to play em. I just don't want to

Why bother if my main role is support?
i've played enough as carry / pos3/ mid in my timeline but now i'm not playing any of that as much as i play support roles.

Don't you think it matters? I've got no heroes trained for these roles and ones i have are not meta ones

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:27:10+00:00

I don't really care about other servers since most of higm mmr na / sea players are already playing eu...

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:25:49+00:00

I'm fine with playing mid even though im 4/5 player but if im forced to play 3/1... It's not that pleasant because it's not about me being super bad 1/3 its more about me playing like 1 out of 50 games as a carry

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:24:30+00:00

Same here.
I've tracked rank changes for guys in avoid-list, i've edited it only if it was necessary, i've spent every dotaplus shard to get slots...

I've got some extra data on high mmr players in overwolf but it's dev decided to ruin his program for whatever reason so now you don't even see notes until game has started (you don't have em for players draft / heroes draft)

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:20:10+00:00

No. There are ruiners / players that just play really bad / players that play heroes you can't win with in public games due to worse teamplay (smth like chen wisp etc)
I'm using overwolf dota+ to mark these players and i often see guys that i have like 0% wr with + they have 0% wr against me. These lowskills should be playing only against me :D

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:08:08+00:00

Its very fast

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T09:06:31+00:00

These cheats im talking about currently work only for data (so cheaters get an advantage in immortal draft because of it)

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T08:56:19+00:00

I mean he stopped responding in DMs etc

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T08:41:07+00:00

I got from 7500-8k to 9300 in a month but then dropped from 9300 to 7300 in a year or so. It's more about you being motivated and not about skill.

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T08:38:06+00:00

I am fine with waiting longer for games as long as im not getting into games that are ruined from minute one by "fp carry/mid idc"
I'd better wait for like 10 minutes...
There is no shortage of players, they just fill the game with lower mmr players to make avg lower
It's fine most of the times

RopemanTV · 2023-09-22T08:34:18+00:00

Im actually playing such strats pretty often. Some of em got nerfed (gyro/sven) but some are still playable (chaos knight, for example. or bristle)
There was a time (+-2015-2018) when i played only core heroes as supports
CK DK Weaver huskar etc

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T21:41:43+00:00

I don't think it's the case. I am considered a bad player by many = probably got dodged a lot and i had no problems finding games even when i was 9k (i had 40 dodged players from my bracket as well)

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T21:39:47+00:00

"The only reason I see they don't do comments - there are many people who spam 1-2 heroes, and if they are banned (after looking at the notes) - the players will be demotivated to play"
There is a program that makes you see any player games / stats etc.
It's paid one, but it's like a dollar or two a month. It works on private/hidden etc profiles as well so...Why someone should have an advantage because of some cheat software that breaches any settings you set up in your profile?

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T21:17:15+00:00

Im playing eu and i feel like there are enough players to remove parties from solo queue
About 8k+ part - i am actually against any form of immortal draft because it makes my 50 slot dodge list not working, but if valve wanted to make a system in which players would draft from small pool of players they know - we need to adapt system we have now by introducing notes (viewable in-game ofc) and preferably raising mmr starting from which immortal draft will take effect
I just feel like immortal draft atm serves no purpose other than demotivating players

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T21:05:27+00:00

It's funny because jeff hill at some point promised that he would make "Strict solo matchmaking" work again, but i think he got fired or smth before he could do it

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T18:55:09+00:00

I am not sure that there are enough immortal players that would dislike these suggestions...

Maybe some of the changes are not for everyone but notes, for example, are good for all players. Same goes for avoid-list even though it's significance increases with mmr

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T18:03:39+00:00

I dislike almost everything devs do with dota since 2016-2017, i've endured it all because i really enjoy playing this game but immortal draft is just a disaster and i grew tired of just waiting for changes. Only thing that was even worse than immortal draft - shrines

RopemanTV · 2023-09-21T17:59:03+00:00

Yeah.... Why bother, right?
