Magic

    im currently ancient 3, deranked so fast from ancient 5, I always got teamed up with idk what to say, acc buyer or noobs who played like archons.

    Before this lose streaks, i was ancient 1 who stop playing dota for a couple of months because i got demoted from ancient 2, the reason is almost the same like this. and then after i started to play again i actually reached ancient 5 in a few weeks, until yestereday i keep losing like from 12 games, i lose 8 games and only won 4 games, and then today i play, i lose 4 games with no win at all. all because of my shit carries or mid who play like archons. Anybody getting the same experience?

    fyi, u guys cant see my recent matches because i hid my matches to prevent overwolf.

        Well, if you don't show your recent games, it's hard to judge if your teammates were eating shit or not.
        You know, it's pretty common for ppl to make threads about how they get shitty teammates, or how they are good at game but are held back by their teammates etc, but one look at their game history, game chat or even a random replay proves that they are where they belong and are just in denial over their low skills.

        Also, if you are de-ranking fast, that just means you never belonged to that skill bracket anyways and the system is placing you in your skill bracket.

          i mean, if i don't belong in this skill bracket, even if i got back to this game, i wouldn't have ranked up again right, instead i would be deranking again

            Well, I gave you my thoughts and a simple solution.
            Make your match data public and it will be clear if you are getting thrown back to the mmr you belong, or you are just having a unlucky string of games.

            Let me rephrase my last statement:
            Ranking and De-ranking is normal in D2. "Fast De-ranking" implies you got placed in the wrong bracket and are getting tossed back to the bracket you belong.

              now let the losing forced 50-50 cycle beings!

                  It is normal to derank from Ancient to Archon. You are lucky you are still Ancient. A Herald exists in every bracket, but an Immortal does not and is rarely seen in Crusader and below.

                    If you want to win more than 55% of the time, you can choose low bar 5v5 games where you can smurf there and trash others.

                      Dota 2 has more elements of luck as the patch progresses. A lucky bash can easily decide the game.
