Though I hear from friends that IXDL is full of whiners and ragers so I dunno how much better IH league would be.
I played in one with a player draft and such to form teams that was fun. Played with 1437 in it after Korok randomly joined.
Maybe Reddit Dota League? I know the actor who plays Ender in Ender's Game plays in it.

Does MafiaScum have a dota guild? Or you all just meet up on steam?

What I mean is stat's like win/loss, don't these affect your queue spot?
i would assume (and this is full-on assumption, someone feel free to correct me if dota 2 matchmaking is weird somehow) that there is a hidden matchmaking rating (MMR) that is used to attempt to place you with players of your own skill level; while at the very bottom and very top of the curve theres
theoretically
longer queue times, the queue times shouldnt be significantly different between skill levels (and as a bonus, the more games you play, the quicker you'll get to what would be considered your "true" mmr, meaning you'll
theoretically
get better matches)
stream
ffxiv/speedrunning sometimes/other things?

You can see what tier you're in if you go to "View Recent Games" or whatever, type in your name, and then choose a bracket. It'll show games you've played in that bracket.

I'm pretty sure there are varying amounts to "Very High", because in june-aug, I was getting nothing other than "Very Retarded" and "Huehueperuviandoto". The "skill brackets" in themselves aren't totally descriptive.

They made VH smaller at some point but I don't think it was ever 20%.

Wish Valve didn't put a stop to the MMR system, I'd like to see where I am now. Cause I'd bet money I'm lower than I was at this time.

You just made my day!
I recently tried out Nyx Assassin and Vengeful Spirit, the latter being a nice fit and probably one of my go-to supports from now on.

You can change a setting in game that prevents Dotabuff from recieving your stats if you'd like.
