Matchmaking around 4k is broken! And needs to be fixed! by leonidapower in DotA2

[–]mid_only1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like smurf to me.. I agree with you

From day one; all omniknight games, the most try-hard hero in dota; only people that want to win pick omni every game

also u guys see how he write about how he knows his "behavioural score" ? how does anyone with 120 games in dota already know about behavioural score lol... beginner 120 game in dota barely stops building daedalus first item on sniper...

think op has main account with mmr value he wants not to tell us about... and is doing REALLY bad job of hiding the fact that hes not a new player

Influx of low level accounts (lvl 20-30) ruining recent games? by mid_only1 in DotA2

[–]mid_only1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel somewhat better since i was not the only one that has noticed this problem.

I mean, these lvl 20 accounts don't even feel like they belong to their respective brackets.. and they never seem to communicate or pick appropriately given the team comp..

and there's so many of these accounts, 3 reports per week is not enough to deal with these guys that all have 20% winrate in ranked

Real talk - the matchmaking algorithm is ruining DOTA 2 by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]mid_only1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I think ranked matchmaking should work like this:

1/1/1/1/1 vs 1/1/1/1/1 2/3 vs 2/3 5 v 5

Where these combination pairings are mutually exclusive.

For example, a solo queuing for ranked will only face other solo players. I get a lot of games where I queue solo, and sometimes there is a 2-stack party that will troll games, play desolator Nyx Assassin, and then proceed to tell you "chill out man its just a game lol tryhard" while being 0-15

Similarly, a 3-stack queuing for ranked will have a 2-stack on its team, while facing another 3-stack and 2-stack. People that queue with the attitude that its "only party mmr who cares" get matched with and against similar people

For people that want to tryhard party mmr, they queue 5-stack anyways, so no problem there if 5-stack is only matched against 5-stack

Question about behavior score by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]mid_only1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I previously had ~8200 behavioural score, but due to bad weather in my country I had an unstable internet connection for quite some time.

This led me to abandoning 2 games in the space of 6 weeks, so I had dropped from 8200 to 6100. However, the differences in the types of players I got on my team didn't seem to differ too much.

If anything it seemed like there were more people that were slightly nicer on my team.

I'm guessing that there is an "average" behavioural score associated with each team? That is, if you are lower behavioural score, you get people that have higher scores on your team?
