Question about brackets normal/ranked in General Discussion
Jerson

    Hey guys i started pretty low on this account and for the past 2 years i improved a little and i only played either solo ranked or party ranked with friends, now i wanted to test some random builds and heroes so i queued for normal matches after 2 years of not playing unranked, i've noticed i get teamed up with guardians/crusaders when in my ranked games i get high archons and low legends.

    How do i get around this? Do i really have to grind that "hidden MMR" in my unranked games? Just few minutes ago my jug was guardian 1, i was wondering how can he be so bad and after game i checked him and saw his guardian 1 badge!

    So do i seriously need to spam meta heroes and get out of low bracket in my unranked games?

      you have a lot ns games u are in that bracket, on that acc u cant go higher ... if u go 5 games 50 0 ull still be in ns. You can only boost ur mmr and change bracket.

        You didnt understand me, i dont want to boost my MMR, i just want to equalize my unranked and ranked games, because when i play unranked i am at least 1k MMR bellow my ranked games.

        So i want to play with same people in my unranked games that i get in my ranked ones.

            Oh so thats normal? Im not bitching i just got scared because i literally had mini-panic attack and PTSD flashback, i was playing in 1-2k trench when i started dota 2, bearly got out and climbed to 3090 mmr where i currently sit, so i queued for unranked and i got scarred that i have to do that all over again, to climb from there to where i am now again!

                ^ i cba making new steam account just for one game that is on it, i just wondered can you equalize ranked and unranked to avoid this "skill gap" i have thats it. Apparently i cant or nobody knows. Who the hell makes new account just because of stupid dota?

                but u said dota was fun :(

                  Yeah, dude. Who plays 2k+ games because of stupid dota. Look, they want to be good at something they're going to spend time with. Clearly, not just for fun. For them, rank matters, they want to get better, play with better people and not get stucked at low bracket(s).

                  but u said dota was fun :(

                    The name says it all, man. UNRANKED, it is pretty clear why the skill gap (rank) is different from RANKED.

                      Haha sick. PTSD flashbacks from 1k trench. Yea. Shouldn't you feel nostalgia too? It's good to practice in easier environment anyway. I always thought they automatically equalized mmr. Otherwise a lot of 5is and above who never played unranked for years would face similar situations.

                        Holy shit these games are hard! Okay i know i picked Slardar for mid against zeus but still i should be able to stomp them easy? I really strugled to win this match? Am i so bad or guardians and crusaders are good at this game?

                          first question you have to ask: why would you pick a slardar mid? sure, you wanted it to counter enemy weaver and riki, but you already had a bh in your team..
