I'm in Masters but I feel that every single player has a right to play against someone their skill level. .


That is exactly how I feel. And I can't speak for every bronze player, only me and my friends, but that's one of our biggest complaints.

This is unrelated, and not targeting smurfs but Blizzard's matchmaking, but we definitely feel that way in 2v2. We are 1 in bronze, and we play against top 8 silver/mid gold teams all the time. Argh, random venting of frustration.


Do you want to play an opponent who plays seriously and at your level?
I'm honestly curious, because Gheed sets handicaps on himself, like that one game where he just turtled the entire time, so I don't think that he plays above your level, just at your level but seriously retarded.
He's basically using his higher level mechanics to perform the kind of strategy you would see from someone with a marker sniffing issue.


Yes I want to play people who play seriously. I've taken to 2v2 with a bronze buddy more than 1v1 laddering. Mostly because I either get cannon rushed or 6 pooled more than half the time. Looking on the bright side, I know how to deal with the cannon rush more effectively. 6 pool is still a thorn in my side, as it's meant to be. Although, 2v2 doesn't change very much. Case in point, we were playing 2v2 tonight (T/Z vs P/Z) and we got cannon rushed and 6 pooled at the same time. They took out my Z buddy, I managed to defend, and I played 2v1 the rest of the game. I lost, but put up a valiant fight. Like Leonidas and the 300.
So yes, I want the bronze league to be like the upper leagues with proper games and stuff.

Quick question: I'm assuming some of you are gold or higher and from your experience, what is the ratio of "cheese" to "normal" games? Like every third game you get cheesed or what?
I like the building position. Optimized to let the other player penetrate his anal crevice as easily as possible, it's good. - Destiny
