General Discussionfor last time: forced 50% confirmed

There's a guy that argues our school system overly focuses on algebra and the like in HS math. He makes the case that a far more valuable type of math is statistics and probability since people argue using that math so often, yet it's the most commonly misunderstood math out there.

I'm going to prescribe to you to look into some probability books.

you mean this?

You won 5 out of 9 of your last 9 games. That's 55% winrate. Quit whining that you have the occasional bad game or two

First game was in normal MM. He won and then lost 4 ranked games. :D

i totally agree with OP.
5/9 =~ 55% winrate confirmed.

@ Vandal so true! As Americans most people don't eve use basic algebra or trigonometry. They should just stick to probability & statistics since it has more real world uses.

You're at 51% so I would be happy you aren't the 60% of players who are below 50% winrate.

looks like last ranked game didn't finish yet (it's 4/9 won = 44%)
once again this proves how shitty dota2 system is.
thanks god i deleted it in time.

:D

"the 60% of players who are below 50% winrate"

I guess hes right, maybe we should focus more on statistics than algebra.

BraToS I would appreciate it if you delete Dota and take your stupidity to another game. The current community has no lack of ragers and dumb fucks as it is. Pity you are too ignorant to understand basic math.

Here is a crazy thought

http://dotabuff.com/players/played

Only 3 people on that list are outside of +/- 2% from 50%

No the game doesn't try and balance at all (Sarcasm if you can't read it)

I guess technically all those players could be just avg and somehow magically they all ended up around the same win/loss ratio

^agreed
try this http://www.clubpenguin.com/

Assuming balanced game, there is 50% chance to win
mm system working confirmed ?

@zenoth
gladly, it looks like this game if full of dumb people anyway (like u apparently)

Well he does have a nice red green red green pattern on his first matches page. There may very well be some kind of system as I get 1 or 2 super ultra mega scrubs per game after a winning run but dota isn't meant to be played solo so unless you stack theirs not much to complain about.

http://dotabuff.com/topics/2013-02-19-when-these-vavle-shitters-gonna-fix-mm?page=1 only thing changed since then is solos vs 5 stacks

/smh
