how many turks are in ur bracket lmao
i only heard about 1 high mmr turk and that was neqroman who was the first to hit 7k(i think? or was he top of the leaserboard for a while, doesnt matter)
its just another factor in matchmaking like behavior score, i got a game with some euros(easterners id guess because their english was terrible) today because they couldnt find enough people that are close to me geographically i think
thats why i said "other people". though tbh where i live in turkey is closer to eastern europe than the rest of turkey anyway so it would be normal for me to not get turkish players even if that system was actually in place. its probably just confirmation bias honestly. people in america (which shouldnt have a player problem) regularly get peruvians in their games as i said, so.
ill be honest in that i have no idea whats happening but here are some things that are facts:
* i got a huge increase in the amount of russians in my games, amounting to 90-95%(ure not gonna argue its subjective i hope, i believe i can yet determine if some1s russian or not, especially when they use mics)
* using german vpn reversed the effect(not so certain of that one in particual, but i dont recall but one person i could for sure tell is russian, no cyrillics anywhere, every1 who used mic had a western euro accent and there was minimal engrish in chat)
* triple had the same happen to him
* arin gets little to no russians (correct me if im wrong on this one, arin)
- all since the update, the very same that introduced "language-based matchmaking", yet what they described in the blog doesnt seem to work at all, and instead entirely different things happen
even if it doesnt happen to americans or happens selectively for whatever fucking reason, it doesnt cancel that it happens. if tomorrow the snow in my city turns red and every1 i know confirmes its red for them too but canadians at the same time have normal snow im not gonna assume we our vision got collectively fuck up overnight, i will assume that its fucking RED
well idk i dont really believe in stereotypes anyway. shit players are shit players, good players are good players, no matter where they are from. either way you should do what you want to, for the "placebo"
as i said, i dont pay attention to that. i dont care as long as they can speak english, even if its broken. if a game is lost it just becomes a flamefest anyway and everyone just throws out insults.
ud have to be pretty stupid to "not believe in stereotypes" because most have at least some foundation under them
the opinion that an average russian dota player is a worse teammate than an average euro is not exactly an opinion and it just takes to look at the history and the current trends in the community to see exactly why(for one, the majority of players have evilarthas/alohadance/some garbage russian boosters as their most "viral" personalities and all of the above mentioned are absolute disaster to play with most of the time)
for example the same sotry is with the stereotype of a stupid black criminal-pusher-gangbanger-whateverthefuck - the crime rates ARE higher among blacks, not because the statisticians are racist or biased but because shitting on a group of people for several centuries inculing enslavement, segregation, murder and finally leaving them alone(read - leaving them to live in piece of shit ghettoes with bare minimum income, garbage education and as such almost no way to get out of the trench) yields exactly that
also have to say that i didnt have the problem with russians ive been queued with prepatch - they acted like normal human beings and were decent teammates and breaking items or going amulet was a one in 30 games occurence(for reference i had my teammate destroy items/afk at least 3 times last two days)
it might have something to do with the fact they now know everyone else is russian around them, although i have NEVER seen anyone anywhere except me or triple acknowledge that, and that also shouldn't be the reason to just be a piece of shit consistently like people i play with do now
i think people are more judgemental towards their own countrymen. i really hate playing with turkish players, they are the worst of the fucking worst, horrible pieces of shit. i dont mind russians though. as i said, i only hate people who do not speak english or people who excessively use mic for no reason. no one goes around saying "finnish players are the worst" because no one even realizes they are finnish in the first place. all the stereotypes (in the dota at least) mainly come from communication problems.
* arin gets little to no russians (correct me if im wrong on this one, arin)
there are exceptions but i'd say that like 90% of my teammates are non-russians as well
also it happens rather often that there's like 3 people from the enemy team arguing in cyrillic alphabet in the post game chat which would only support that theory
ye and for every nice turkish palyer there are 1.000.000 retarded turkish players which means u cna go afk as soon as u see someone writing an i without dot
ye and for every nice turkish palyer there are 1.000.000 retarded turkish players which means u cna go afk as soon as u see someone writing an i without dot
81 nice turkish players total other than sam confirmed xd
except i dont have communication problems and i despise euros who think they cant climb because or turks/russians ot whoever
i dont even care if theyre gonna flame me or keep completely silent as long as they keep playing to win, and that, for understandable reason, is not very compatible with crying in ur mic 90% of the game
and i dont want to have to play 4/5 every game just so my teammates still retain their will to win the game instead of just picking some garbage hero on 5 and playing on autopilot because they dont care anymore, why should i play a behavior score C simulator if i dindunuffin?
im actually astounded theres little to no threads on reddit either praising gaben for full euro games/poles or some other eastern europes assholes complaining about non-stop cyrillics in their chat/russians acknowleging the change - i have only seen one and it just got downvoted instantly. theres no way no one else noticed
im watching ppd rn and he's playing from poland and most of his games have like 5-6 russians at least it seems. this is probably because there are not many polish players at all, but considering how all the pros are in poland rn and they are still not matching against each other, it seems interesting. also you were talking team-wise right? so valve can give you 4 russians but the enemy team can be something else entirely?
tbh ive played with countless americans who r just as bad as the "peruvian" stereotype
the only problem with peruvians is u cant fucking communicate with them, but if the peruvian/south american isnt a brainless idiot, u dont need to spell everything out and the game works fine
conversly i have way to many special little na turd fucks who just abuse communication and call everyong f@gs for no reason and just baby out and cry all the fucking time, etc.
i dont notice a particular difference between them, they can both be equally cancer or equally good.
also you were talking team-wise right? so valve can give you 4 russians but the enemy team can be something else entirely?
absolutely. i have been matched with full euro team(via vpn ofc) vs obvious full russian teams. surprisingly, we won all such games in 30 minutes =)
thats the biggest problem with this system - when u put the teams i get when playing wuthout vpn against teams i get when playing with vpn, theres absolutely NO way u can expect the winrate to be 50% between them. that just doesn't happen
im sure ppd should be in the behavior score dumpster either way
nah ppds the kinda asshole to have a perfect conduct
i dont care about people flaming or w/e either, i can just mute them if it starts to get on my nerves. if what they say actually has reasonings behind it it's fine ie there is no difference for me between someone saying "guys we should be going as 5" or "go as 5 you fucking autistic monkeys". the people who threaten to throw the game at literally anything you do are the ones i absolutely hate the most. there is nothing more triggering than playing with such people in the team, the feeling of being held hostage by those fuckers who think they are above the law, especially when they take pos 1/2. i dont even care about the +25 that much, i just want to play a good fucking game and all these people are just making it really hard.
to be honest people that go afk/feed when flamed do have a point - if some1 cant control themselves and not keep their shit to themselves why should they control themselves and continue to play
(excluding the fact that its equivalent to murdering some1 for trying to pick ur pockets 4Head)
people simply lack the ability to work towards a common goal honestly. everyone wants to do it their own way, which is fine, but they should understand that, at the end of the day, we are all here to win the game. so winning is the only thing that should matter, not how you achieved it. people just get overly dramatic about everything all the time. you just suggest a fucking item and tell them "maybe you should get a bkb" and they say shit like "DONT TELL ME HOW TO PLAY YOU BITCH". just, fucking why? not everyone has malicious intents under everything they do.
so all the russians i and other people get are using VPNs =)
how many turks are in ur bracket lmao
i only heard about 1 high mmr turk and that was neqroman who was the first to hit 7k(i think? or was he top of the leaserboard for a while, doesnt matter)

if u dont believe me get the fucking tunnelbear, tunnel to russia and see how that goes for ya, its not a lot of work to set up
well idk i dont really believe in stereotypes anyway. shit players are shit players, good players are good players, no matter where they are from. either way you should do what you want to, for the "placebo"
oh wait nevermind they have no servers in russia 4Head
tunnel to germany then, works too - u dont get many euros in ur games now do u?
as i said, i dont pay attention to that. i dont care as long as they can speak english, even if its broken. if a game is lost it just becomes a flamefest anyway and everyone just throws out insults.

i confirm the change in region lock system
the share of russians in my games in solo q changed from 40-60% to CONSISTENT 100%
нет, ты просто байсд и делюжнал =)
"region lock" is just as fake as "behavior score f" :-DD
also have to say that i didnt have the problem with russians ive been queued with prepatch - they acted like normal human beings and were decent teammates and breaking items or going amulet was a one in 30 games occurence(for reference i had my teammate destroy items/afk at least 3 times last two days)

someones rating is directly tied to their ability to win games in the past
the biggest reason ur gonna have a shit player has less to do with nationality and more to do with being emotionally frail
Or because they say: I fak ur mazzer EBAL SOSAT UEBISHEE
90% czechs/slovaks are delusional retards that put the difficulty slider towards "nightmare" whenever they play on your team
usually accompanied with awful english and voice chat
there are exceptions but i'd say that like 90% of my teammates are non-russians as well
also it happens rather often that there's like 3 people from the enemy team arguing in cyrillic alphabet in the post game chat which would only support that theory
indeed they are
Anyway I can point to nice players and monkeys from any country
im both
nice turkish player OMEGALUL
There's u
i wonder how many games would it take before being dodged by sam/ywn if i was divine 5+ and ended up in their team
ye and for every nice turkish palyer there are 1.000.000 retarded turkish players which means u cna go afk as soon as u see someone writing an i without dot
similarly to russians
positive russians are unironically superfun to play with though
that dark rift ROFL
81 nice turkish players total other than sam confirmed xd

it works for 2k mmr redditors from uk who play one game a week, they also never get lp btw haHAA system is gud
im sure ppd should be in the behavior score dumpster either way
tbh ive played with countless americans who r just as bad as the "peruvian" stereotype
the only problem with peruvians is u cant fucking communicate with them, but if the peruvian/south american isnt a brainless idiot, u dont need to spell everything out and the game works fine

ye but turkish ppl dont even go to school theres no winning with them
absolutely. i have been matched with full euro team(via vpn ofc) vs obvious full russian teams. surprisingly, we won all such games in 30 minutes =)
thats the biggest problem with this system - when u put the teams i get when playing wuthout vpn against teams i get when playing with vpn, theres absolutely NO way u can expect the winrate to be 50% between them. that just doesn't happen

when someone flames me i go feed
to be honest people that go afk/feed when flamed do have a point - if some1 cant control themselves and not keep their shit to themselves why should they control themselves and continue to play
(excluding the fact that its equivalent to murdering some1 for trying to pick ur pockets 4Head)
Just pick their pockets LOOOOOOOL 4Heeeead
just act like they groped you and protest really loudly so their friends get weirded out by them 4head

because their ego interprets advice as a direct attack on their skill
bonus: theyve already become triggered by visible ally mistakes and are simmering with pent up autistic anger
