So I just finally got promoted to master league, after a long time of fighting in high diamond and a lot of frustration, I am finally there.
It feels that like yesterday I was in bronze losing to my friend over and over again..

Guess I am finally allowed to join the "noone below masters should talk about balance" club!

Just wanted to tell the world, I am so happy atm :D

Goodjob man! Bet it feels great. Just to add a question of my own, what was your point rating when you got promoted?

Comparing a forced distribution ladder (sc2) and a non-forced distribution (iCcup) doesn't make sense.
To OP, don't let anyone down talk your achievement. Congrats!

I played my placement match halfway through season 2 and got placed in Masters, guess I was high enough in season 1.

Not so thinly veiled brag... way to hijack the op.

Congratz op, it's cool to hear about noobs improving. Personally I can't wait for the next generation of progamers to hit the scene, people who've never played RTS until SC2 and got their through hard work without a headstart from another game.

Masters players shouldn't talk about balance either.

Congrats though
I think esports is pretty nice.

Congrats! Hopefully I'll manage to get over the high diamond hump someday as well (1300 diamond atm).
