Also wondering how the skill level works as mine is pretty much always "normal", whenever I play with you I goes into "high" "very high"

Perhaps it's based on your MMR rating? I haven't bothered playing 10 ranked games, so maybe that's why

Because compared to Deadshizzle they know they are going to have to challenge you. If he plays on his own then he plays in the same league as D3x!.

Also, don't go grocery shopping with him because he steals...

That is rich from the angry dutchman :p

I take offence. I have worked hard on my rage. I rather just keep quiet or mute my mic. :D

It's only on the very rare occasion that I actually say something lately.

PS: That is why I don't like coming to TS anymore... :p I can rage moar when nobody hears me.

With matchmaking being an absolute dick lately i don't know if I will see level 200 unless I spend some dosh.
I agree with your notes about matchmaking except mine is the other way around. Yesterday I played 2 games. In both games my opponents were well below both myself and the rest of my team in terms of skill. I haven't experienced such one-sided games in a long time. It frankly wasn't fair.

You have an MMR for pub matches too. It is separate from your ranked MMR. Difference with pub MMR is that you can't see it.

I read that Dotabuff works on 3.2k-3.7k MMR for High Skill and over 3.7k is Very High. That was last year though so it may have changed now what with pros moving into 7k and such.

Deadman just gets easy games when he plays alone

I do agree when queueing with the 2 of you, games ARE MUCH harder, seeing as the team we are on has to play 3 v 7...

D3x go play CS.

So my understanding of it is that it is based on your "hidden" MMR. It will take all 10 players, and average out their skill level, and depending on that skill level, will class the match as Normal, High or Very High.

I think anything under < 3200 is Normal, 3200 - 3800 is high, and anything > 3800 is Very High.

I also read somewhere that if you are 2400 or >, you are in the top 50% of players in the world!
