Fair and even teams with the stars is more important than some rating progression to infinity. We generally know good everyone is. Use it! Fair games are way more fun than climbing a ladder rank with less even teams (which is classically what elim is about if you're into that sort of thing).
Other than that, agreed 100% you should NEVER lose rating for a win, it is the most fucking retarded stat thing I have ever heard.
Most of the community agrees but unfortunately for whatever reason spooked does not listen and he is a big reason why we are losing players to svs zone.
MMR, while it was a great idea and for the most part is a good thing, it has destroyed any chance at us doing twd/wbduel/javduel/base/elim/pub. So when you don't listen to your players on what to do, you lose said players. It's a shame.
The problem with that individual match is pawner. The guy has had 500-700 rating for some time and it's throwing matchmaking off so bad since it can't balance someone that retarded. He gets to play in almost every single match too. It generally gives him broken ass lines to help balance his dogshit rating. Anyone under 1k rating should have to bench if someone else is available to play. With a rating under 1k they either have fucking downs or they are trolling.
I said it before and I will say it again: We should be using DT ratings for matchmaking. They will produce way more balanced matches than this awful system.
<EDIT> I noticed ogron made same suggestion about using DT ratings, if me and him can actually agree on something, you should probably listen to it lol
