Why does dotabuff division take into account partied games? in General Discussion

    I like to play with my friends who are all around 2k-3k and everytime I do I go from diamond 3 division down to platinum 9 just because I am playing with players much lower than what I usually play with. I think that your dotabuff division should only take into account solo games so you can play with people much lower than your skill level and not be penalized. Is there any reason it takes all matches into account currently?

      cz u get into lower mmr where u can easily get a higher KDA and winrate on the hero

        Yeah, but I'm talking about discounting all partied games from division ranking, so that wouldn't happen. Maybe have solo division and partied division?

          yea, but who cares about these rankings anyway?

            i think u cant quite say whether a game was played in a party or as solo, by just using steam API. this info just doesnt appear there.
