General DiscussionHIGHER ESTIMATED MMR?

I mean why am I at lower level now? Does partying with low mmr affects ur estimated mmr that bad?

The "estimated mmr" of opendota needs more data to be more accurate. Your first 100 games or so, it will wobble considerably per game because the actual matchmaking system is making you vary by several hundred per game until it settles on where it should place you.

I've had mine dip just because one game had mostly high ancients instead of all divines and it wasn't like I lost anything, it was literally just that the system had picked 1 particular game with lesser-skilled people probably because of who was in queue or something. Needless to say, over time the system eventually put me up in divine 5+ where I should be. Just keep playing, it will put you where you should be.

with that winrate dude, its no surprise lol

Okay thanks man. I thought I didnt explained it well but u got the point. Thanks alot

They said it is base on your performance not winrate

You have a point. But maintaining in a vhs bracket is a different thing. Few more games and you will sure be kicked out. Step-up your game. Your win rate just says you can't stay in that bracket.

Like I am already paired against legends and Im almost dropping 20 kills per game. Just bec of winrate?

It has to do with the relative mmr of the people in the game. The whole "performance" thing stops after a mere 5-10 games on an account. After the first 10, its win/loss just like normal mmr but it varies widely still as it tries to place you more accurately. If you're facing and are teamed with legends, its placing you there and your estimated mmr will go down to the 3k range. Until you start winning at high ancient/divine level, you won't see that estimated mmr going up. It would take at least 20-30 games of nearly all wins for that to happen at this point.

So I need to win to make my estimated mmr high?

To make it go up, yes you need a LOT of wins. Like 20-30 wins with NO losses would do it, but no offense, that's not looking likely.

Well u will end up on 3.5 k soooo

39% wr..impressive.

Eventhough I will do my best to make my estimated mmr high I will still callibrated at 3.5k max right guys?

You will calibrate where you belong. Just play your games and have fun. Don't focus too much on the "estimated" mmr.

Estimated mmr is complete bullshit i just dont understand how people cant figure out that it isn't calculated with some magical formula.

Estimated MMR=Sum of all players' solo MMRs over the last 20 games divided by the number of players

The issue here is that mmr taken for calculating that is the mmr last displayed on your profile which can only be up to date if you didnt remove the solo mmr from your dota profile since the medal update. If you did its impossible to display your current mmr.

And yes, if you play unranked games with lower mmr people or party mmr with your 2k friends its gonna lower your estimated mmr because those people are in your game

Okay sir. I have a question. Does the callibration for the next season still 3.5k at max for new accounts?
