I just played the best game i ever have. score screen said 'average unspent resources' was only 1300. I maxed my army and went to attack (as i usually do), but i think that was a mistake since i shouldn't really give my opponent time to get colossi.
My opponent was platinum, he only had a few games played, though. This is the third time this week that i'm matched against, and beat, a platinum player (none of them had more than 10 games played in 1v1 tho (this one had quite a few 2v2-4v4 played and is plat/diamond in all)).
I expect to get promoted to silver soon (which would be progress) since this game was 'evenly matched' and i don't even get matched against bronze players anymore (except for a few exceptions against ranked 1/2 bronze with lots of games played and likely a matchmaking rank higher than bronze).

Hate to break it to you, but the leagues are locked because of some GM league glitch that Blizz tried to fix (apparently).

Now you're just stuck wondering if you should have already been promoted or not

yep.... i've played a lot of games thinking i should get promoted really soon.... since it said that 'even match' is at least one league higher than i am, and i don't even lose to silvers anymore (i obviously still do lose, but it's not very frequent).
oh well, guess it's mostly up to waiting and hoping it gets fixed soon.

oh also, if i get matched against platinum and win the game, i kinda don't think i should be in bronze anymore anyway.

Even though leagues are locked your MMR isn't. Playing more now means you'll be promoted immediately when leagues unlock.
