Submitted 5 years, 1 month ago by

Hi

I have no idea what MMR is. There are so many posts about it everywhere - but try finding out what it means!

I reckon it would be good Google juice :)

    MMR refers to the ranking system for battlegrounds, I.E the amount of points you win or lose depending on your place on the scoreboard as well as your ranking relative to the rest of the lobby.

    The problem is Blizzard isn't entirely clear on how the MMR system for battlegrounds works. We've gotten a bit more info on it from Mike Donais (https://outof.cards/hearthstone/495-mike-donais-talks-battlegrounds-lich-bazhial-mmr-blog-coming-this-week) but I doubt Blizzard will ever be completely transparent about the formula they use to score your games.

    MMR stands for Match-making Rating (or Ratio) and is an abbreviation used in many games that have "ladder" system. Sometimes its hidden (like for Casual matchmaking), sometimes its not.

    MMR stands for measles, mumps, and rubella :)

    I found the Google term to search for: "wiki games mmr"

    Like I said, I bet there's some good SEO juice to be had.

    "MMR gaming" works fine too. I doubt this is an abbreviation that a lot of gamers need to look up, the term is ubiquitous.
