I keep getting shitty team mates despite making it to plat 2 last season and the more games those shitty team mates lose the worse team mates I get. But norms are so damn easy to win that I thought that I could easily get my mmr to 2000+ in norms and then I will get good team mate again because norms and ranked seem to share the same mmr. Is this thinking right?
Powderkegg2 votesNo, normal and ranked have separate mmr.
Void Nargacuga1 votesThe MMR of normal games and ranked games are entirely separate and don't effect each other at all.

Zelnick1 votesDamn, but when ranks reset, it seems like placements are related to how you do in norms.
Void Nargacuga1 votesYour league ranking gets cut in half from what I understand. This thread should help clear things up for you.
Prime1591 votesthey have separate mmrs, but they should most definitely be tethered, like they are in most games, including other mobas. there are entirely too many games in norms where it is 3-4 plats/diamonds vs all silver 2's or silver 3's. the only reason your norm mmr is that much lower than your ranked mmr is because you completely throw games in norms. another thing that should be done, again something that is done in many games besides league, is have a max spread on duos/trios/etc. a diamond player shouldn't be playing with a bronze player, plain and simple. i get we all have friends who we want to play with and what not, but you can do customs. most people have plenty on their friend list to do this. no point having a bronze in a mostly diamond game, or (what happens much more often), a solo diamond in a game vs all bronze.
