General DiscussionSo what exactly is the current player distribution for ranked mmr?

It's not out, idk wut was valve's point of releasing this ranked MM and not giving us any clue on how it is calculated.
Like I play always with at least one of my friends, me and him gain/lose same amount of ratings, even though he performs much worse than me.

I hope Valve try to unleash some of the secrets about this MMR and how the hell is is being calculated.

apparently all players on the same team will get the same rating gain or loss regardless of performance

The more interesting part is when there is a party with lets say 4 people on 3-4 k and the last guy is on 5.5+ and all gain the same doesnt make sense to me.

Casual players with low rating are less likely to keep playing ranked, even my cousin who(is not casual) got almost 4100 rating and still refuses to play ranked after 10 calibration match. I think there are higher percentage of 4000+ mmr players in ranked than normal.

GIVE PERCENTILES

why are people so afraid of rank mm..

if you enjoy playing with good players, rank mm is for you.. but if you just wants to win and up your WR by playing with noobs (not that im pro), i think its just useless..

no one cares in your mmr, or maybe only 1 cares (you)

^ the reason why alot of people stopped playing ranked is because the system overvalued some people at the start (due to reasons I have stated in other threads) and because of that they are much higher than they should be. Since they are put higher they will start losing alot of games(this is why you see alot of threads about people dropping almost 1k rating since they started playing). Eventually people will start to plateau where they should be and start going 50%ish again

PS some people where undervalued as well which is why you see some 15+ game win streaks

I agree with Sampson. I do like ranked. I'm actually getting up to where i belong. Where-as people who are carried to 50% percentile are losing every single of their solo ranked games and QQing.

I hate ranked. Lose like 80% of my games, before I had a 50% win rate. Idk how I could've been carried before as I mainly solo queued and played support/carry mix. In ranked now it's impossible to do well as support.
