General Discussionhow to get high rank points ?

All games you play beforehand take into account everything.

The calibration games are basically super sensitive regular ranked games, just in case some hows your stats were contorted against your (or for you)

After calibration you will lose or gain ~25 points for a win or loss.

I'm llosing or gaing still +25 or +24.. per game so doesn't matter much. So at most u win all ten games u get 250+ mmr lol.

Once you win like a handful in a row, it'll start putting you against higher mmr people. I got capped at 9 wins in a row last week, was @ 3.1k then the other team was avg. about 3.4k. Won the last one and only got +27 pts out of it. The harder the opponents are, the higher your points will be after the match.

Same goes in the opp. direction.... teamed up with 2k friends listers while I'm around 3k still on team mmr and only got 15 pts for winning the match, we had a 5 stack so it took forever to find a match.

no shit caveman, if your mmr goes up of course your opponent's average mmr is going to rise. The thing is, the same applies to your team.

Valve doesn't reward or punish streaks, they just have a tendency to end by chance or as a result of better opponents or whatever. I believe swiftending has proven enough with his experiments.

when i played my 10 calibration games

i random every single game and was throwing

got 5.6k afterwards

but i was like 1k wins and 58% winrate back then

yea swift prove there is no elohell, just bad players

@Caveman

I sometimes stack with 2k players being myself 3,5k and i still get 25 points for the win.

Yes agreed zenoth and Chris, I already read the swiftending blog.

I was just making a point to the guy posting here about how to get more pts when winning a match. Theres no way unless you're teamed up with a team MMR and your spread, not having some type of illusion that I'm the breast player around and why do all my other teammates suck. He just had a question on why his pts per match were not going up per win. Thats all :O

Yeah I said breast because breasts usually make everyone happy. Just say breast 3 times and tap your shoes and you'll be in the strip club in no time.

@ Dorkly

Well It's rare I do for 25 pts but I think the MMR doesn't match up with even people while I'm 1k ahead of my friends in this group I roll with sometimes, theres is around 1.8k to 2.2k then I'll be the 3k guy, sometimes it just gives us an even 2k team lately and doesn't try to = the amount of MMR points on our team with the enemy team. Been happening a few times, must be frustrating for opposite team idk.

But of course it's been the other way around too where we'll have all 4 of our 1.8k to 2.2k mmr guys, then me @ 3k then we'll get like all 2.8 to 3.2k players on enemy team. I mean it's not a perfect system but I'd rather have faster load times for games, then wait for the "perfect" match for 15 minutes. Lately it's only been taking 2 to 3 minutes instead of the old 10 to 15 minutes trying that perfect match. Fine by me no hurt feelings here. It's just a game!
