    Hey everybody,

    first of all, very nice job on the rating. nice motivation, the whole statistics are amazing to see.

    on the other hand i was wondering how you keep track of support players in mm?

    i mean kdr, farm etc. are good indicators for carry players but i play hard support 90% of the time for 8 months straight now.

    when i saw my graph it was constantly going down since i started playing support. before i was playing mid for most of the time and my ration was 250 higher.

    i am not mad or anything, i am just intered in a rough description.

    keep it up. i hope valve and you guys make stats public, since mm is just another term for a PUB game.

      Only match result counts. Winning or losing, nothing else. The amount of points added/subtracted depends on the ratings of players involved and the uncertainty factor of each player. KDA, GPM, XPM, etc. do not count.

      Your rating dropped because you started to lose games you were supposed to win. Your rating when you played mid heroes predominantly was higher because mid heroes have higher game impact when games are uncoordinated.

        The only relevant stats are whether you win or lose, and the DBR ratings of the teams you played against. It doesn't matter whether you play a support or carry or anything. It sounds like you started losing more games, and/or started playing against worse teams when you switched to support.

          I'm a support player 90% of the time. 1982 rating, Diamond, 99th percentile. Time to take a look inwards.
