General DiscussionDoes the Dota 2 matchmaking struggle with parties?

Having a big MMR difference in a stack can do that

Hmmm well in unranked I play in Very High and he does Normal/High but I'm not sure exactly what kind of difference that is.

when I play with some of my friends I play in normal too the spread it just insane

normal matchmaking is fucked if you stack

Yeah i agree
i play in very high but sometimes it fall into high
4 of my irl friends is playing in normal, and we always play 5 stacks
35 games with them and we always play on dire because of my MMR is spiking so high
And since we don't really know how to play in dire i lost a lot with them.

I believe how valve sort MMR is if you are 4-5 stacks and have higher MMR than other team you will always get drafted in dire team.
Because i've already proven that if my friend doesnt queue with me, they play on radiant side

Haha yeah. I'm currently working on my solo ranked MMR it's so much lower than my unranked... maybe I should play ranked with him instead since that's the case :p
