Why can they just not get rid of all this league/division garbage and have a single, combined ladder?

And what the hell is Omicron? Sounds like a tire manufacturer.

Omicron is the 15th letter in the Greek alphabet. Some of these names sound silly lol.

The great thing about Blizzard's policy on the beta is that once they make mistakes, they don't fix them. It's a display of strength thing. I have a feeling we're stuck with these monikers.

dominion gamma

not nearly as epic as some of the other names
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

hahahaha some of these don't even make sense.
at least they should have more meaningful division names, or just back to the number system.

I mean, some people really did believe that higher division numbers=better players so I understand where the confusion is coming from, but these silly new names are definitely not the answer.

Because 1 -2336 divisions seems stupid esp considering that the division number has nothing to do with skill just time of placement. So now they string together random words i guess.

wait... divisions arent numbers anymore? Wtf is the point of that?


I would imagine the point would be to let people know that within a league(diamond, plat, gold etc) division #X isn't better than division #Y. So they just gave them names instead of numbers. Just my guess.


It's quite simple really:

Before:
Newbie1234: "OMG I'm top 10 in my division that's amazing!"
Newbie1234: "Oh wait, I'm in division 26641..."

Now:
Newbie1234: "OMG I'm top 10 in my division that's amazing!"
Newbie1234: "HAHA I'm so good at this game."
Newbie1234: "I'm probably, like, top 100 in the USA."
No I'm never serious.

Diamond - Ghost Yankee, represent.

But when the screen came up when I finished my placements it said that I was going to be placed in Overlord Pepper, which sounds way cooler.
