General DiscussionOn Dotabuff, what does the it mean when the skill level under the gam...

uh they dont have enough data or something. usually you get that moments after a match is finished. If its still blank skill after its almost 100% normal skill

it means that ur evolving into high skill bracket yes

Dotamax always shows brackets. Don't know why DB's bracket is sometimes blank.

^ This actually..
Although there are some games where even dotamax doesn't show brackets for.
Tournament matches also dont have skill brackets mentioned.

^thats cz lobby games do not count players' levels in any way.

^Yea, but they show up on dotabuff anyway.
I was merely mentioning another case where you could have games on your dotabuff which won't have the skill bracket mentioned. :P

ye, i guess only some NS bracket games and lobby type ones appear without skill bracket info sometimes.

ok so there is not a low skill bracket, for a long time before I started getting normal skill games I had all of them showing up as blank, so I kind of assumed that blank games mean low skill. However getting one doesn't necessarily mean that you are dropping below the normal skill bracket, since I still get random blank games from time to time now, even though my normal solo games are in very high.

^blank = normal, nor better neither worse

nope, I already made blank game, with all people at 6k+

this mandingo guy is the living proof this forum needs that mmr actually works. see what happens when a guy that i assume is 5k plays on a 2,5k acc.

@matrice
was it a typical normal/ranked game? if so its rather weird cz i saw blank bracket rather often and it was always NS.

so is Mokujin calibrating for him, right?

^Triplesteal, Yeh. That happens. Its rare, but it does show blank for vhs/hs. Ive had a few where on dotamax it would show vhs, while it remained blank on dotabuff.
I assume its just more common for normal skill, as there are a TON of normal skill games being completed every second, as opposed to the number of hs/vhs games, making it easier for Dotabuff to get the data on the Hs/vhs games, maybe.

It means ur ready to move up :)
