^^Thanks, fearthequeen.

(Wiki)Fish Server updated to reflect these changes

Looks like Fish is weeding out the weakest players. It will be interesting to see how many players manage to get to the S-ranking

"Additionally, the the new Rating floor is now 500 rather than 150, meaning once your drop below 500 points you will have to buy a ladder reset with your fish points to restart at 1000 points."

That's what I meant by this, you will get ladder locked once you go below 500.

To add on to what fearthequeen wrote and maybe provide a little more information:

I'm not Korean and my Korean language abilities are pretty garbage so I almost definitely misunderstood some of the finer details with their ladder changes when I was mentioning it this morning but I think I have it now . Here is the news post on the fish website where the details are outlined: https://www.fishbattle.net/notice/16928493#0 so maybe someone else can clarify whats up.

Few things: Looks like as mentioned they require 30 melee wins (not just games but actual wins) but they also upped the amount of time you had to be on the server from 24 hours to 48 hours.

It also turns out that playing a ladder game will also alter your melee stats. and as fearthequeen said you need to stay above 30 Melee wins to be able to play ladder games. Basically, if you win a game you earn 1 melee and if you are defeated you lose 1 melee win. However If you are playing against higher or lower ranked players though then the amount of wins you gain or lose is changed as follows:

1 Rank Difference where the higher ranked player wins: The winner gets +1 win and loser gets -1 win
1 Rank Difference where the lower ranked player wins: The winner gets +2 wins and the loser gets -3 wins.
2 Rank Difference (or more(?)) where the higher ranked player wins: The winner gets +0 wins and the loser gets -2 wins
2 Rank Difference (or more(?)) where the lower ranked player wins: The winner gets +3 wins and the loser gets -4 wins

Clarifying the ladder streaks a little more:
You'll now get bonuses or additional penalties for going on win or loss streaks as follows:
1 win/loss: nothing special
2 wins/losses: You get 1 extra melee win and 10 ladder points for a win. You lose 1 extra melee win and 10 points for a loss.
3 wins/losses: You get 2 extra melee wins and 15 ladder points for a win. You lose 2 extra melee wins and -13 points for a loss
4 wins/losses: You get 3 extra melee wins and 20 points for a win. You lose 3 extra melee wins and -13 for a loss.
5 wins/losses: You get 5 extra melee wins and 30 points for a win. You lose 4 extra melee wins and -20 points for a loss.
The win streak bonuses stop getting increased after 5 but loss streaks continue like this:
6 losses: You lose 5 extra melee wins and -30 points for a loss.
7 losses: -6 melee wins and -40 points.
8 losses: -7 melee wins and -50 points
9+ losses: -7 melee wins and -50 points.

Things are slightly different for their 2v2 ladder but I figure not many people play that so I'm not going to bother translating it for now. If anyone is curious I'll give it a go.

Once again, I'm pretty sure my understanding is correct but i'm basically using educated guesses so meh lol :D

I read the original post and I'm pretty sure everything in this post is correct, though I'm not great at Korean either. Only part I didn't understand was this:

F 1 ~ 1299

E 1300 ~ 1899

D 1900 ~ 2599

C 2600 ~ 3099

B 3100 ~ 3799

A 3800 이상 유저중 상위 5%

S 3800 이상 유저중 상위 1%

Does this mean that if, say, the top 6% of users were all above 3800 that those outside the top 5% would remain at B rank?

Yeah it's really weird and not very clear. It's either "a rating of 3800 and a top 5% placement" for A or "a rating of 3800 or a top 5% placement" right? The current user "Sontal" is 2700 and ranked first but he is ranked C. This leads me to believe you need to be 3800 and the top 5% of the ladder.

So for your example those outside the top 5% would remain B.

Please help, I want to finish the rest of the series >_<

BTW I didn't want to bump the 2 year old thread, I hope it is okay to Post this here

It's blocked in most countries because of a song in it, I've submitted a copyright dispute so it's watchable temporarily anyway:

Thanks for clarifying this -- the "and" does seem to make more sense here

Fish keeps tweaking the system, I think the only thing that changed is the Rank Brackets. They added F- for <800 points and the ranges have changed for the higher ranks as well. I'm Just gonna remove my other post because I don't really want anything inacurrate and Arcania posted more complete info as well.

Anyone know if I need to get a new version of mca64 to get the new wlauncher? I get banned every game and I don't know if it's because of the launcher or the fact that I'm not korean(lag?)..

I think it's the launcher because I never got banned before. I have no idea what's going on because I could play just fine about 12 hours ago.

No one knows what version of wLauncher you have, only wDetector, and wDetector did not receive any updates recently.

I even downloaded a new version from the korean wlauncher site directly and it didn't work. I guess there is a problem on my end then.

Yea they changed the system Jan 1st and then changed it again on the 3rd. Unranked players are also apparently starting at F- and then after they play a game they get the appropriate rank. (Probably F in all cases unless you start at 800 points instead of 1000 now. I haven't laddered on fish this season yet).
