MMR in Dota 2 is a very important indicator that tells about the level of your game, and makes the selection more comfortable for all players, preventing the strong from getting caught with the weak. The higher your rating, the stronger you play, and the more interesting matches will be. I think every Dota 2 player has at least once imagined raising Aegis above his head, and therefore this guide will be to many players' liking. In our today's article you will learn the basic principles of MMR boosting in Dota, and how you can speed up this process.

How much MMR is given per game?

In previous patches, the amount of MMR received was strictly defined. Each win or loss changed the rating by 30 points. Now the system has changed a bit, and the amount can be from 25 to 40, depending on the opponents and their ranks. There is also such a parameter as "Rating Confidence". In case it is low, you will gain significantly more mmr, and lose as much. The higher it is, the less rating you get for victories.

How to raise MMR?

There is no "Magic Pill" that will help you easily get out of low ranks. The most important rule is to make a small pool of heroes that you like and that you play well on. This will help you master your heroes, and have a high percentage of wins. Rankings are gained over the course of the game, so learn to abstract yourself from defeats. If you lose a few in a row, it's better to rest and not come into the game for a while, so you don't lose even more.

Also an important factor would be to not burn and tilt at your allies. First of all, it makes your allies more aggressive, and there is a high probability that they will just want to ruin your game. But it also affects you, because when you start to burn you lose concentration and the thread of the game. If you have bad allies, just mop them up and keep playing.

Decide on one role

This is also an important factor, because different positions affect the game differently. It's much easier to level up on a kerry than on a sapporter, so you may have to consider changing roles. Try to improve your individual skills and communicate with the team as much as possible if possible. Then you will not be far off from raising your rating.
