    This should dramatically reduce the number of games it takes for hive to converge, and should help to mitigate smurfing.

    Looking forward to seeing it in action.

    Thanks for giving some details on the learning method! I was wondering how the Hive score was calculated. I've been frustrated with the DotA2 MMR system because of its very small incremental changes to your MMR score per game. Statistically it should also converge, but over several hundreds of games. SGD makes a lot more sense.

    Can you talk about the actual model being used? Or is that something you want to keep hidden.

    Does this answer your question?
