Somehow, it happened. Also, near the end, there was an Ultralisk with 44 kills.....

If this is the skill level of players who play FFA, I am not playing another game like it.....

Ok, it is a terrible fucking game. I get it.

Everyone sits back and turtles, except I push out to grab a 3rd (gold), and in the process, snag myself a barely-touched natural and a corner expo as well. On the other side of the map, one opponent goes for mass carriers and stalkers, the other goes for a mass ground army with some muta harass. I simply clean up the mess.


EDIT - Also, I just went 5-0 in placement and got put in Plat.....

You can't be placed in diamond, only promoted.

You need 7 losses to be eligable for diamond.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

Ok, so, you have to do good in placement, and still do good after that to get into Diamond?

Maybe I like this setup better. Although having to win ~20 games and lose 7 is probably gonna take a while (what I figure it will take to get promoted asap).

The promotion system is still a bit of a mystery, but the idea is you play good long enough and you'll get in. There is no magic number of wins-to-losses, since it depends on the quality of the opponents you beat.
