    My hidden MMR is high 2k and to get there I'd need to grind through hundreds of bad games like this.

      Dude, maybe your teammates are bad, but u can't be playing vs an invoker and SF with a clinks without bkb. For just saying one mistake.
      What i'm trying to point out is that even though your teammeates can be bad, u could get better. That's the way to climb MMR

        What was bad about it? Barracks are taken on both sides. That's usually a sign of a good game in my books. People fed, but did so on both sides. You lost, but I'd rather lose a close game then win a gimme.

          Shadow Fiend and Invoker weren't really a problem for me. Orchid was plenty to shut them down. The problem was that the enemies got so large I couldn't effectively kill them all in a 1v5 and we needed towers so I had to buy BoTs and take objectives.

                Those feeding matches took place in low 3k games, bud. You should also note that I purposely feed, troll and build unconventional items on heroes with higher than average skill caps.

                The Lion game was insanely unfair btw. That was a 4.5k+ game. Well, at least three of the players had 3.6k to 5.2k ranked MMR on display.

                Amusingly even in those games where I have horrid KDA ratios I still am surprisingly doing better than my teammates who somehow have even lower KDA.

                    4.5k normal bracket games LOL

                      Yeah, I was in a 5k normal game earlier and I even posted the match. It happens all of the time when you play CM because the matchmaking pool's so small.

                      Note: opposing team mostly consisted of lower MMR players. same shit happens vice versa

                              All players that fluctuate between Normal & VHS with a ranked MMR above 3k that I've personally been matched with and pitted against within my last 15 games.

                              I can dig deeper and show you games where I've single handedly stomped VHS players with nothing but low skill players on my team.

                                    Wow, ok that one game you posted where you claim to have played with 5K players is pretty correct but here's the catalyst.

                                    The guy is part of a small stack that queues with a 600 MMR guy in captains mode in US west. You do realize how literally dogshit low that game will be, which is obviously something they figured out for free wins. http://www.dotabuff.com/players/64745357 Look at his friends, all 2-3 stack with each other + one low in RD, SD, or CM.

                                    Unranked matchmaking is almost as bad as LPQ where you will get a mix of all types of players but that is no way to gauge your hidden rank to. I got match with Miracle, W33, Illidan etc. all in unranked but that doesn't make me anywhere near their skill.

                                    The fact that you have to point out those games makes me think that subconsciously you know that's it's higher than you deserve. I don't go around posting every game where I have been matched with 5K players cause I am a 5K player so it's nothing special to me to have to point it out.

                                    You don't play any of your heroes very well and I am pretty sure that the majority of those ES games 6 months ago weren't even you playing. Please just stop.

                                    meow maniac

                                      Nah, all of the ES games were played by me. I was playing significantly better 6 months ago, but I took a 2 month long break and now I'm nowhere near as good, but I'm definitely not a sub 1k MMR player.

                                      P.S. I don't even play in US West and he wasn't stacked with a lower MMR player when he was in our game.

                                      My primary account w/ 300 games sits @ 3.1k MMR

                                        And spoiler: I won all of my solo queue calibration matches. The reason I was placed @ 500 MMR was because I fed couriers and repeatedly ran under the tower as Alch in all of my ranked party games to troll the people I was queued up with.

                                          fun fact a huge number of 5k players are terrible. Even more 4k players are terrible tho, so gl.

                                                we get it whenever you lose you 'where not trying'. Valve needs to add a button to wipe mmr loss at the end of game to correct these obvious oversights.
