Why doesn't every game on dotabuff indicate the skill level? in General Discussion

    This might not be the right place to post this, and it may have already been asked but just was wondering why not every past match has the skill bracket indicated under the hero.

      Because valve

          It pulls the bracket from the DotA2 API which is iffy at best.

            Because some games are so bad that there's no skill to measure in the first place.

              since dota 2 api doesnt provide the bracket any more, dotabuff has to guess and it only states which bracket if the certainty level on the bracket is super high

              Sir

                A better question is why does everybody seem to care ;D

                Fakovnik

                  Because higher skill = higher mmr = dotabuff pro = better life <

                    yea i've always wondered the same thing actually. I thought it was dotabuff tryna make us buy PLUS feature but i guess that's not it

                      We don't guess the skill level. Valve just doesn't provide it for every match played. We only display the skill if it was provided by Valve

                        can you guys not include them? It looks really awkward when some games dont have any info and some games have. Maybe only put it on the actual match itself, like not on the player's profile if u know what i mean.

                          Well, there's THAT site that has it on every match, how come?

                            There are sites that guess the skill bracket for most matches. We don't do that because we've found it to be inaccurate.
