Hmm it is a bit SC2-ish. I do feel for the devs though. It's a really hard job to try and work on something set in stone for so long. Especially with a really old community. It can be really hard to relate to an old community.

I like this, pretty awesome. If we could bring the old bnet channels into sc2 it would be awesome. Surely one of the main reason one sc2 felt appart.

Also support for match-pickers would be really good I think. You get to pre-select what race you want to play vs. what opponent race. That's pretty key IMO for a lot of Terrans and Zergs.

Jealous I respect you but those race traitors need to learn and play the manly matchup TvT <3

Why is the average APM so important to be shown this big on one of the main pages of the profile?

I am afraid to say that low APM players will never understand it

I haven't seen anyone mention this.

"Cloud saves keep your replays a click away on any computer. Access an overview or rewatch the action!"

That's pretty cool, and something SC2 doesn't even have.

but they are fish, which highly surprises me that they seem to implement metal rankings... i highly dislike this sc2 content T_T

yeah me too. I highly dislike the "metal rankings". I think this sort of modern ranking system is designed to be non-transparent. You are presented with a multitude of different graphs that show a lot of irrelevant stuff. Total mining rate across all games. Achievements unlocked. Dear god i hope the don't haver achievements.

Biggest problem is that there's an internal rating and a external rating/ rank connected to a certain number of points. In Starcraft 2, as long as i followed those discussions, ranking was opaque at best. The fact that internal ratings decay and you had this "bonus pool" thing in Sc2 made it very unappealing to me.

My intuition towards Sc2 ranks was, that it's meant to appease the Ego of us gamers. Being "solid D+" on ICCup sounds the way it is. You're a beginner, nothing fancy. Being a top 4 of Division 32 Diamond player and having all those fancy decals and achievements leaves a different impression.

That being said, i don't mind if ranking serve our e-phalli, but i do mind if i have no clear impression of where i'm at. Im very much aware that there are issues with the ranking system's of ICCup/FISH too, but at least they are straight forward.

Looks cool but I abhor the fact that it seems like they're sticking with bronze to grand master leagues. In my short time of playing this game F-S has become this highly respected status symbol. I want to keep climbing and eventually reach the top of the top ranks (as far as foreigners goes..).

Blizzard disbanding the 1.16 ladder was the first blow, while not giving me a working alternative (yes unfortunately I still have a lot of issues on my PC* with 1.18) so I could keep playing and climbing. This will be the second one. And yes I take this game very seriously.

Hello,

since... I don't really remember when, but sc2 had an update that implemented showing actual MMR. This was because many felt like you do, so nobody really cares about points anymore, only your MMR vs opponent MMR.

Blizzard were scared that casual players would be put off by a shown MMR. Not sure if they were right or not, but I'm hoping they will let us see our actual MMR in SC:R and not a fictional point system. We don't know yet though, what they call "points" could be our actual MMR. Let's wait for the announcements before we make any conclusions!
