New ranked update

"Your performance in both Party and Solo games is considered when evaluating your skill and determining when your Medal gets upgraded, with Solo games having a bigger impact. In order for players to achieve either the Ancient or Divine Medals, only Solo-game performance is considered."
Cos Dota is a solo game right :thinking: Not that we'd ever get those ranks, but literally punishing people for playing as a 5 or something???
Most people seem to be dropping the actual number (even though it might not be as important anymore idk) - Sumail calibrated at 6.7k

Weeeell, finally my solo rank is fixed by Valve fiat ;D
I'd assume that you can't calibrate into like 10k by the nature of things, calibration games likely only go so far.
Will have too see how this works out, but all in all I think it is pretty decent for the game to have seasonal calibrations, as it makes it less pressing to defend ancient ranks and getting too bent out of shape about losing a bit.

tbf it'll take us 2 weeks to play 10 games anyway i imagine

I'm in Sweden December 22-January 14 btw, and despite being out of practice will certainly be looking to make up some time lost on Dota (I'll also be entirely out of practice, so it is down to personal preference if one wants to avoid joining for that ;)).
I also had a very detailed dream of playing Tidehunter in a dual-lane with an Omni tonight, with no actual interesting points to it other than it possibly being a sign of some deprivation.

10 games is currently 15 days according to Dotabuff
I will be going away from December 22, so you vaette can maintain the depressed Scandinavian quota

It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds
