I do not like mods that tell you the % of you winning. This is just me personally, I feel as it ruins my attitude towards a game because If I know no matter how much I try if we have a 20% chance of winning, we most likely will lose. Its like knowing that you will get a C on a school assignment no matter how hard you try. This is just my opinion I would love to read yours.

Well, I have won with a 3% chance, so I don't believe that crap.


A lot of players give up when they see they have a low % chance of winning, and I think they are the reason why they lose.

I've seen plenty of those games go the opposite way, you just have to actually try.  Keep in mind XVM win chances are based solely on stats, not a player's ability.  It also doesn't base it on 60 days stats either.

I find stats programs like XVM to be useful. Nothing is set in stone though. Don't let stats affect your effectiveness.

XVM is only correct about those predictions about 25% of the time anyway

Holy crap, someone who knows the difference between affect and effect.

You make no sense, we are not discussing if you like XVM what we are discussing is if you like playing with those predictions it gives you.

If you don't use XVM, you don't have to deal with its predictions..... not sure what the problem is here?

I like XVM and find it very useful. If you're the type that gives up easily if the odds are against you, you probably don't do that well anyway. It's just a prediction based on overall stats; 60 day stats are very big factors that are not included... you can have a group of yellow players like me that might play like they're blue, and vice versa on the other team. So you really don't know anything for sure, so it's best to give it your best shot, every time.  :playing:

That's not what it means.   I suppose if you don't understand what the numbers mean then it might be a bit frustrating.

So...don't use XVM if you don't like the predictions. Or if you know what you're doing, modify XVM to not show it.

Well, tgis actually entertain me. Every time I'm in a 30% Win Chance and win I feel liek a boss, and everytime we lose a 70% game I feel happy that I'm an idiot.

I only hate it when I see 4 platoons of blues ans purples on the enemy team with only oranges and apples on our. But it's worth it
