EPTHuh? What are you even saying? If you want to address my comment, then at least do so properly, rather than some ambiguous statement. If he was sitting at 2700 in diamond then his MMR is going to be decently high. In order to get to 2700 you have to WIN not lose, which would increase his MMR, not decrease it. Explain what you mean please.

he wasnt a solid diamond player, hence promos/demos. system obviously matched him against players of lower mmr, he lost lots. 2 wins werent enough to improve his rating, so he got demoted. he cant deal with that. | ||

I understand how you feel OP about being competitive with friends. I have a friend that I am especially competitive with but we don't care about ladder number or division. We 1v1 to see who is better. There's no reason you should quit SC2 because of your rank. It doesn't make sense. Do you quit school because you got an A in math and then a D in math the next year? | ||

Explain what you mean please. At this point everyone has around 2700 points in bonus pool. Lets say, if there was no bonus pool, you were borderline diamond/platinum. You won 50% and lost 50% of your games, and you rating would stay at 0 in diamond. Because we have bonus pool, you get twice as many points for a win as you lose for a loss. So even if hes still borderline Diamond/Platinum, if hes used up enough of his bonus pool his rating will look high. The battle.net system ignores the bonus pool part of your rating for matchmaking and promotions/demotions.

Explain what you mean please. This might come as a shocker, but the player in question may have used more than 2.7k bonus points to reach 2700 diamond. What does this imply? He loses more than he wins. The bonus pool, and his lack of understanding thereof, caused him to mistakenly believe that he really was at the skill level of a 2.7k diamond player. EDIT: Looks like Oco beat me to it. | ||

as it stands, im almost back up to my previous rating because i feel that bnet keeps matching me to less proficient players, sort of evening out my losing streak. so buckle up and dont let it drag you down man. | ||

He started before his friend, Ash. Beat his friend soundly the first time. Cleared the first few gyms easily and was way ahead of his friend. His friend fell behind for awhile, but thanks to his friend's "bonus pool" (better sweeper), his friend started catching up. So Gary became frantic and worked even harder, eventually working his way into the elite league, and becoming the grand champion. But a little later he lost to Ash and found Ash had surpassed him. | ||
