Valve's latest mini-patch brings with it some important changes to matchmaking for THIS WEEKEND.

In what appears to be an attempt to address the issue of parties ruining solo ranked games, Valve has made some tweaks to matching "for this weekend" which removes ranked matchmaking as an option for stacks/parties.

Match-making changes:
1. Parties can only play in unranked matches.
2. Ranked matchmaking no longer has Captain’s Mode or Random Draft.
3. Unranked All Pick now follows the same picking order as Ranked All Pick.


The changes overall mean that if you search Ranked as a solo player this weekend you will only have All Pick to choose from and that there will be no stacks in your games!

Are you keen on the changes to matchmaking for this weekend?
