I agree, since they’re at it and mapping it 1:1 to rank, just make it visible.
Why do we need to upload matches to a third party site like hotslogs for the numerical value?
Why is MMR still hidden?
Just show it in the client.

MMR = Rank Points now
they used a 1:1 conversion. so the amount of rank points you have is what your MMR is equal to.

@Morogoth but rank points is not MMR. They just mapped rank points to Rank so you can’t have gold 1’s banning over a plat 1.
Players want to see our account MMR in various modes like QM and and SL. Only unique snowflakes will get upset if other people can see it. There is no logical reason to hide this info in the depths of the server.
If I’m 1723 MMR in QM and SL then so be it, it will motivate me to play better and raise it.

People were actually looking into it and they never said MMR would be visible for this season in any patch notes/AMA.
They said in the end of 2018 that they wanted to show mmr (at blizzcon), but then they wen back with the idea.
Also Morgoroth is right, your rank = your mmr now and that’s all they promised in patchnotes/recent AMAs. We won’t get a “number” for it though.
I also wanted a number for it in every gamemode, but what can we do…

that’s most unfortunate. i wanted a number for it too maaaaaaaan… i guess at least 3/3 for placements is something much better than 10/10

I don’t think a gold 5 player with current rank points of 121 is a gold MMR.
Yeah, it’s pretty sad 
3 placements and no promo/demo are good at least.

honestly the biggest problem in my part was the promo/demo games so annoying so if we don’t get 1 of the things that we waited for. at least we got the other thing that we waited for which is “no more promo/demo games” cause seriously they were so ANNOYING to have was suffering when “i needed 1 ranked point to promote to next rank”
what??? 1??? comon mannnnnnnnnn so that forces me to play 2 more games to promote to next rank cause of that ridiculous “1 rank point missing”

that would be
10121 MMR.
which i have explained a couple times over the past few days.
each league is 5000 points. so you just add up the total points and that is your MMR. simple math anyone can do.

I don’t know what to say right now, except thanks to the banana cakes that told me MMR will be visible. Dat hyped me up so much that I ended up looking like Murky when he slimes.
I was expecting MMR numbers to be visible in the statistics section or something so I could flaunt some numbers around whenever people checked me out. Woo did that one get me lol. I’m glad this forum community is small and humble in a way, and that the Devs mainly revolve around Reddit. :d

Ok if MMR = rank point
How MMR have player that play 1st ranked game?
and is the same when he played only QM or only AI?

as far as I understand they removed Promo and Demo games. so don’t worry about that 
Exactly, this is why rank points are not MMR.
Let’s say a person (Person A) only plays AI, does his 3 placements and places Gold 3.
Another person (Person B) plays 50 ranked matches, grinds thousands of rank points and climbs from Bronze 3 to Silver 2.
Since his MMR is so high, he (Person B) gets to ban instead of the Gold 3 who has more rank points (despite only playing three ranked matches in his life).
For the same reason, a level 11 account can still ban over a level 1100 account in Unranked Draft (higher hidden MMR).
Why are we not shown this hidden MMR value?
