I don ' t think it does , I mentioned cable because I had cable bottleneck lol when upgrading to ultrawide on my pc . <| sep |> Thanks for the explanation . I did not know that . I understand it ' s not particularly fun stomping through lower league players , but it ' s also not fun getting stopped by players from a league you can no longer compete with . I still believe it would be natural for MMR to decay after inactivity . Perhaps the system could be adjusted and reimplemented . Make the time inactivity before MMR decay longer , and the rate or MMR decay slower . They could also make it so your MMR can change more drastically after a period of inactivity , so that it won ' t take such long time getting back to a league level that are equal to your own current skilllevel .
