Imo, 4k guys coordinate a bit.
There ate always games where you want them to coordinate more than they do but they won't.

Further here's my theory : VALVE MMR CALIBRATION IS MESSED UP!

they put 2k players in 4k tier. And many good players have to start from 2k tier, hence the goldilocks zone.
Unfortunately due to unlimited entry and exit of players, it will never become a closed system. And since it wont, it will never stabilize to point where every player has an actual mmr description.
The very fact that they fluctuate mmr by every game is idiocy. In short even at high mmr there will be found 3k scrubs, who were freshly calibrated or recently calibrated and had a streak of luck.

Valve guys: wow kyphoid got lucky this game, lets give him 25 imaginary points. Its ok, we will take it away after some time, after he buys our hats though.

A 10 hour evaluation system is better for dynamic games. Elo system was devised in closed system which doesnt interact woth changing rules of the game. Neither it ever was devised to affect your elo due to poor performance on your team. Because it was meant for single players only! Implementing in a 5 man game where not every variable is in 1 mans hand is not sane, 1 guy can never win the game for his team! Especially if hes supporting!

Why they dont do 10 hr evaluation is because of time consumption, absence of reducing it into simple dummy maths and lack of manpower that are already busy in makin new hats for realeasing in January.

It's like trench all over again. Play carry to win and increase mmr. And the reason for increase is that you can sell your account( ***in hailrake). Mmr is no status symbol, its a trap, a matrix world, where players are stuck in, tryimg to reach the state of order. They fail to realize that only in chaos can there be order. ordo ab chao

To increase mmr as is in trench, play in a party with people you can rely on. Period.

All opinions expressed are my mentors, well mostly.

What MMR was this? I had 3k and went on a horrific losing streak and now am down to 1.5k. If you are about 3k - 4k you are good. Anything lower is almost worse because it's full of tryhards who flame you for the smallest mistake (ex. A guy reported me for asking him nicely to use english and for using a Clarity and then having it canceled from a Thundergod's Wrath soon after. Like I can prevent that? How should I know when he gonna use it?

Does a comedian laugh on his jokes?
The art of doing a job skillfully lies in making it appear that there is no skill involved.


I added a whole POV on this post you replied on, tell me what you think. No kappa.

I'm actually not even calibrated yet, but I'm assuming I'll probably get something pretty low. I guess I just got lucky with teams.

Think of calibration as honeymoon phase.
Once it ends, your mmr trip ends. Why i say that? Because in calibration people try to get a high mmr altogether whereas in games where mmr is already determined, they start randoming.

You are not matched with people who calibrate when you do. You just get matched with people of the similar skill system thinks you have.

This is often very inaccurate so "TBD" guys often ruin games.
