What is the correlation between Solo MMR and Party MMR vs Medal Progress ? in General Discussion
Exponent-

    Is the medal calculated on the highest of the 2 MMRs or is it some weighted average?

    -The reason I ask this is because my solo MMR > party MMR, and I have seen my progress increase slightly when I lose a party ranked, and sometimes it remains unchanged, and sometimes it decreases slightly.

    -So now if I play party ranked and lose matches, will it impact my medal progress?

    -Also, if I win party ranked matches while the party MMR is still less than solo MMR, will my medal progress increase?

      Higher mmr matters.

      Your medal wont increase if you win party game and if your solo is higher.

        So basically if I play party ranked, and I lose all my games, I don't need to bother about my medal progress getting affected as long as my solo MMR is higher, right?

        Also, say I stopped playing solo ranked till my party MMR reaches my solo MMR, does my medal progress not increase at all ?

            in my experience, my party mmr is higher, and when i win or lose in ranked party games it affects the % progression to my next medal much more than if i lose a solo rank game. 10% - 15% for party games and 1%-2% for solo games. so yeah, higher on matters.

            and if you match your solo and rank party mmr, u can get a higher medal but most likely by only one star. I won 30 games with 2 loses in solo rank and i didnt get shit increase in medal for it hahaha

              So basically the pseudo-code is something like

              if (soloMMR >= partyMMR)
              
              medalMMR = soloMMR
              else
              medalMMR = partyMMR

              medalStar = calculateMedal(medalMMR)

                  ^ that's basic coding even if you can't read that code anyone with common sense may know the meaning of it base on the signs ><=

                    it is so basic that it is not even coding
