    When medals will be reset?

    zέφυρος

      Valve said that calibration will be aviable every 6 months, so i think that it will be in middle may

      SASA POPOVIC

        Its not really a reset its just calibration, during calibration you still get +25 -25 heavnt heard anyone who made some ridiculous -500 +500 MMR jumps, so unless you fucked up and dived horribly between season your MMR will stay where it is.

          doesnt calibration do +50 -50 ?

          And I think they reset medals to your current MMR too so if you have dropped MMR, youll get demoted

          SASA POPOVIC

            I dont think anyone droped that significantly to lose the whole medal unless they bought account or something or they were at 2-3 stars. Even after major losing streak on red days, you dont really drop your current "skill level" so you gain it back on green days.

              It's 25/25. If you already calibrated this season, I don't believe you will ever move more than 2 stars from your current rank.

                25/25?? how is that different from normal games then?

                SASA POPOVIC

                  Its not, thats the point! "recalibration" and medals are just memes, so you get to track some visual stuff isntead of just a number, so you can feel good about yourself and feel "pride and accomplishment" in your progress.

                  Before you just had 3575, 4123, MMR number and those numbers would drop and rise causing frustration. Now you reach a medal and you stay with it for at least 6 month even if you drop MMR your "Ornament" will stay so you can feel good and not uninstal when you enter the game and some guy takes you mid because you are lower MMR than him but you were higher just a week before and nobody trust you because you just had a bad losing streak, get it? Now medal stays and you can be good forever even tho you really had that losing streak!

                    The whole point of medals were to entice people to keep playing ranked and getting hooked, instead of just reaching certain milestones and casually playing unranked afterwards.

                      it will be the same, i dropped from ancient 5 to legend 5. if the recab starts at legend 5 its bs

                      HartzFear

                        I dropped 1200 mmr since medals

                          ^ waw thats what i called bad day

                          Ritsu x boni = 0 IQ

                            Thats gotta feel really fucking bad if you dropped from 4.9 to 3.7

                            chariz

                              lost 700 mmr since medals

                              chariz

                                  Guys, is the medal to ratio mmr changed? For example, to get ANCIENT 0, your mmr should be 4.2k. I got ANCIENT 0 with 3925. Or does your performace now contributes to rank promotion? Thx

                                  Upper Rank Demon: Tranqui...

                                    to answer you on this thread. 4.2k MMR is ancient 1

                                    I know this because I started at 4280 and Ancient 1

                                      ^no, they dropped the cap

                                        ^no, they dropped the cap

                                        Yup, you only need 4750 MMR to get to divine.

                                          My party mmr increased by 500 during last recalibration

                                            maybe not

                                              I calibrate to legend 2 (cause i was not ever play dota 2 before(dota 1 player)) just before 2 mouth icalibrate and i got this legend 2 and my mmr was 3470 i think. After calibrated i wanted delete dota 2 and my friend tell me ,, you cant calibrate more then legend 2 if you create new acc" i belive him a litle but in this rank is so hard win a game cause all think play like divine and all wanna play carry or mid.. I improve from 16marth to 16 april from legend 2 to ancient 1 but still all ppl think play like Miracle or idk some pro players and play heroes like youtube check and we lost cuz he dont understand if Invoker play mid vs visage he cant go Exort invoker... die 10x in mid take 5 kill with sunstrike and said i'm pro invoker :D so bad feel play with 3.4 k and how to improve it? Why no valve use skill for update mmr, why just use win-lose? What is the point if i have feeder or disconnected carry i still lose my mmr, its a point? btw i got ancient 1 when i was 3900, now i'm 4180 and still ancient 1 xD (sorry guys for bad english but i think you understand me.) enjoi in future and gl if play :)

                                              Kitsch

                                                The only thing i'm wondering now is when it will be reset again? And is it going to be re-calibrated?

                                                  it must be in this weekend maybe Thursday

                                                    @dodrawpo You should not pick Invoker mid vs Visage, any Invoker is in big disadvantage to an already mid-dominant hero.

                                                      you should not post advices as a legend player, any legend player is in a big disadvantage to people who know some basics of the game

                                                          there is this thing called: VALVE Time. expect to be delayed 3-4 weeks.

                                                              VALVE has different time zone lets expect it to be in next two weeks.

                                                                I thought today's update is about recalibrating, but it's not.

                                                                But, surprisingly, my party mmr mysteriously increased from 3751 to 4351 and my medal changed from legend 5 to ancient 3. Idk why this could happen.

                                                                Yurnero

                                                                  The recalibration is done to prevent boosted people. They will now be forced to either buy a new boost. Or to play and lose their mmr.

                                                                  Its also done to make sure people dont just sit on their milestones like hittinf 4k or 5k.

                                                                  Its a SOFT reset, if you play normally, and dont feed. You wont drop any mmr, unlesa youre like 6k+ and mmr will deflate in order to keep higher players away from 20 min que's. Im currently 6056 mmr. Will see what i calibrate at.

                                                                  Yss
