  The skill floor of really old games gets skewed dramatically. If you don’t have a ton of people flooding into 0MMR, and people start to filter out of the game, the bare minimum required to make it at the very bottom of the competitive game modes climbs steadily over time. I left CS:GO as a Master Guardian Elite. I stopped enjoying FPS games. When I reranked a year later, I was low Nova. When I reranked 6 months later, I was high Silver. Saw something similar in DOTA 2, which I picked up last year. At the lowest MMR, games are filled with people with hundreds or thousands of games. I’m order to climb off the very bottom of the games, you need to heat people with an intense amount of game knowledge, but below average understanding of winning in the game.
