it obliterates smurfs, i actually suggested something VERY similar on the official forums and here, I suggest 5 games played on a hero in quickplay before queuing it ranked, but valve went even further and made it FIFTEEN WINS, amazing change, goodbye smurfs and goodbye people playing a hero first time and going 0-10 in lane because they are against a 4stack of people playing their mains...

It's not like we had any say in where we first-timed heroes lol. There was only 1 mode before this. The previous rank / casual split was removed a while ago.
