New accounts and those playing in Ranked Matchmaking for the first time have high uncertainty. Higher uncertainty allows larger adjustments after each match, and lower uncertainty leads to smaller adjustments. Together, the MMR and uncertainty can be interpreted as a probability distribution of performance in your next game; the MMR itself serves as the mean of this distribution and the uncertainty is its standard deviation. A surprising match outcome will tend to cause an increase in uncertainty. Each of the three ranked MMRs has its own calibration period. Under certain circumstances, we may need to reactivate calibration if we think the MMR is inaccurate. You may like to read How I am Placed in Teams when I am Playing Ranked Calibrating Matches?

Hey bro, i had this account where i was at level around 50, to get a higher starting mmr, i made this new account, now i was on level 23 somewhere there , after activating my battle pass, my level dropped to 10 just right after i opened the dota 2 after activating the pass , and all my stats dropped drastically, i had a very high triple kills, avg last hit, camps stacked etc, any idea how and why? Hello ASW, That is something very strange and I am hearing for the first time. I suggest you first you check your new account at dotabuff and then see if you encounter any discrepancy? Something like you play more games but its showing less games in dotabuff. Then you can contact steam support for this issue. Also I must tell you that stats that you see in Dota 2 are NOT exact.

But that's not the same thing as the % of the population at a score changing. These patterns are typical. I played my first game of Dota back in 2006, when Lifestealer still had three passive abilities and an sincere that gave him 20 seconds of magic immunity. During this time, your ranked MMR will not be visible. Except reports of the calibration have been varied. We are not able to manually change these statistics. This can be contributed to the number of players currently playing since the prime of the game shortly after rankings, and the discovery of smurfs, and manipulation of MMR and the system. I am a low-volume rec player so not really into it that much : I guess I will have to see how it goes, since I lost that decent match I might go back to the idea which is fine really, I think I need more practice anyways ; Originally posted by :OK, this is me: But data is really out of date Ogre was my first choice for starters, I was good with him once and when I try Rankings it requires some payment. The piece was lost with quite a good Tinker KDA.
