They added 5 stack and remove the rank limit so now we can see higher rank player in lower rank just at the cost of less rr ?
Giannero [#3]Removed rank limit? Does this mean a radiant can play with whoever he wants in ranked?
yes

but if the radiant wins, he would gain like 2 or 3 RR. So, no point in even playing.
Mortadelo [#6]Didn’t they also say that 5 stacks are going to only face other 5 stacks and that the queue is gonna be super long?
yeah but they removed limit is it only for the 5 stack or also for 3man queue
Thunder1 [#7]yeah but they removed limit is it only for the 5 stack or also for 3man queue
I guess for everyone, I don’t think there isn’t any specific restrictions for high elos anymore

Ok, but the gold player with him will win 2/3 RR too?
heart3 [#9]Ok, but the gold player with him will win 2/3 RR too?
if there is a radiant in 5 stack there will be min 75% rr reduction(for whole team)

Good to hear, thanks.

No the point is to have fun playing with friends which is what the purpose of 5 stacking should be.

Ye but only the radiant's team would have fun. Imagine being a silver or a gold chilling with your mates in ranked and you get a radiant on the enemy team who's just kicking everyone's ass while not even trying

the game puts similar elo against similar elo. If 4 silvers and a radiant are in queue, the game will (try to) put them agaisnt another stack of 4 silvers and a radiant
the obvious problem with this is absurdly high queue times

Its better to lose a tiny amount of rr and play with your friends than lose 20+ rr playing against radiant smurf accounts who couldn't play with their friends before.

Yeah, didn't find a match for 20 mins today. Plat3-diamond2 lobby

Yes, that’s kind of what I imagined
