Well, it is just a number after all. It's just that more often than not, it shows how good/shit you are.
no because your rating is a number. lots of 2k players, and I know this is crazy, play just to have fun.
MMR = Match Making Rating.
a number that shows your rank. A number I wouldn't care too much about.
i mean it's obviously absolutely okay if you play for nothing
but if it's that bullshit like "i belong to 5k but my team drags me down","i've seen 2k ppl play like 7k ppl and the other way around too" or "mmr doesn't mean anything and doesn't reflect your skill at all" then you're a moron
Yeah, a MMR is a number that measure how good you are. While the TBD 10 games is not that accurate, after many games you'll eventually fall to your "real" MMR.
Example: You can calibrated right away to 5200MMR in just a few games "if" you are a already a great player. Vice versa, bad player are calibrated on much lower mmr.
Although there's "trick" for the sudden MMR boost during TBD period, its pretty long to explain here. You can try google and search it for yourself :-)
it is just a number
Does it make any difference if you are 5000 or 2000? No. Neither are going pro. There's no tangible difference. Both play pub matches.
afaik 10 calibration games aren't that important now that u have to play actual games before playing ranked, instead of playing against bots until lv 13 so that there's only a sample size of 10 games.
> does it make any difference if you are 5000 or 2000?
there's a difference in skill, that's all. that shouldn't stop someone enjoying the game if they're bad but saying that there's no difference whatsoever is delusional
isnt that cos they don't play ranked often though?
mason was like high 4ks for a while but thats cos intentionally feeds alot i think, he's got some god awful NP winrate. those that are 5k could get 6k easily though.
being pro doesn't have anything to do with mmr actually, some pros don't even pub play anymore. But that's my point mmr doesn't mean anything other than you would beat people lower than you. So what? Want a cookie? People get too obsessed with it.
The whole reason for it really is so your matches are fun, you win about half of them and don't stomp or get stompped.
No it doesn't even show that. It shows your capacity to win games while being calibrated I guess.
*Change* in mmr shows your capacity to win games. Ideally everyone would calibrate perfectly and would win exactly 50% of their games.
For as much as people bitch about it, do you really want to live in a world without mmr? Every match would be a coin flip, you wouldn't know if opposing players were 5k equivalents or 2k equivalents, matches would be so imbalanced.
Putting a visible number on it just makes people take the game seriously. It's really a neat mental trick.
