The MMR vaccine is an immunization vaccine against measles, mumps, and rubella. It is a mixture of live attenuated viruses of the three diseases, administered via injection. It was first developed by Maurice Hilleman while at Merck.

MMR = Match Making Rating

Back when we had the old ELO system they were equivalents as your ELO score, now that we have the leagues system is a hidden number that will determine with who other 9 players you get queue. It also determines how many LP will you win or lose per game. Your MMR is far more volatile than the leagues so A wining or losing streak will make it vary quite a lot.

I don't remember the exact numbers but I believe up to 1k MMR you are considered Bronze/Silver border and at 2.5k you are Silver/Gold Border.
