I have a second account on which I mess around (play heroes that i’m not good on). All of a sudden, after having played on this second account, on my main account, without any weird loss streak or w/e I dropped from diamond 3 to plat 1. So I’m guessing the MMR is shared accross different accounts? It is bonded to your IP address?
Anyone having similar experience?
You dropped 2 divisions… Nothing out of the ordinary there.
And no, MMR isn’t shared through IP addresses. That would mean a GM player, whos bronze brother shares a PC/connection would end up in GM games
That would explain the bad matchmaking. I never dropped like this before.
Or a lot of people are leaving OW. That could be the explanation why I have been dropping. Wouldn’t be surprised.
No, that have nothing to do with match making. Just you losing more than 5 to get to the 5 wins, and your MMR being lower than your rank most likely.
Every time I complete the amount of wins to change rank, it often jumps up 2 ranks for me.
Ye 2 ranks is indeed the maximum it would jump. More than that would be due to something “special” such as a losing streak or something… But that wasn’t the case and somehow I randomly dropped 4.
