For the people who are complaining about MMR trenches, yeah you're going to get crappy teams. But the one key thing about winning games is that you have to remember it's a team game. You can't 1 man carry tinker or that stuff or go carry all day. In the end sometimes you're going to have to pick a support because your team is all carry. And you know what? That's good because it rounds out your skill set.

And you will get losing streaks and winning streaks. I like to think of MMR as rather short term. I like to think of your actual performance and score ratios as your long term trend. I'll clarify this as if you have a very big game impact as a PLAYER such as how much of the game is affected by you being there (you set up kills, you're there for assists, you ward, etc.) will practically determine roughly where you will end up. I'm talking about the choices you make in game that set you apart from the other players of similar MMR. If you can beat their choices, you play at a higher MMR, and should end up at a higher MMR.
