http://www.sc2replayed.com/replays/174020-1v1-protoss-zerg-gutterhulk So I asked myself wow, how did I match someone who would do such a terrible strategy. So I looked at his ranking and was shocked at what I saw. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/85GuB.png) Can someone please explain how a player who has 1 win and 19 losses gets into masters league!?! I am stumped.   | ||

he'll probably get demoted fairly shortly though if he keeps that up | ||

Once he got that win he can keep losing, and I'd think he'll get demoted eventually if he keeps it up. | ||

All he needed was to have a reasonably high MMR from last season and then get (not 100% on this) one win and he would be put in Masters. I don't think a loss will place you but I'm not sure. Once he got that win he can keep losing, and I'd think he'll get demoted eventually if he keeps it up. If you lose your 1 placement match you can still get placed in masters... I saw it happen to someone else. | ||

Yea, if you look at the picture some of the people below him are 0 and 1. He must have been very high up to loose that many games at the bottom of masters and not get demoted. | ||

It's kind of what happened to me. I had a pretty good record early on then I stopped playing 1v1 and started playing some team games. Now, I have an unimpressive even record.  | ||
