Hello,
We may have discovered a bug(?) that completely nullifies the concept of MMR, by playing as a Party.
Hear me out: Our party of 3-4 literraly lost dozen or even hundreds of Rank # places in the leaderboard really fast.
It would be fine if we did actually lose a lot of games given the magnitude of it but... We did win 15 games for 4 losses in the last two days.
Sure we also factored that there was a few games which were somewhat unbalanced and would potentially win us very low amount of MMR (If the current ranking system is alike dota2)
However in the past, those type of unbalanced games also happent in SoloQ and the MMR gained/lost felt fine.
Right now, we are thinking of not playing together & play solo to actualy try to regain our ranks, I feel like this is really bad for the future of the game, along the fact that this is possibly a tool that'd be used by smurfs.
I am not sure if this is reproducible or is even happening to other parties/solo players right now.
Here is some more information if you could investigate it with your internal data:
Match won id: 66436786 (Party: Yamato/Mo&Krill/Drifter/Wraith)
Match lost id: 66655977 (Party: Pocket/Warden/Yamato/Drifter)
Full list of the 19 games: 66710419 66699276 66688784 66676918 66666091 66655977 66644638 66635118 66626793 66617284 66436786 66428047 66413074 66402964 66394118 66376827 66360602 66352116 66341975
For myself I went from roughly about top 53 in Asia leaderboard to top 99 after these 19 party games ~ which is close to going from low E6 to high E4 for reference. (This would usualy take me about 15-30 losses in a row for it to happen)
Please contact me if you want further informations.
