MMR
MMR (Matchmaking Rating) is a numerical indicator of a player's skill in competitive games, including Dota 2. It is used to match players of approximately the same level. MMR affects who you play with and against. The higher your rating, the more experienced players you will encounter in matches. For more information about the Dota 2 rating system, see our article.
