I disagree, because this is a system that makes it so that if you are not mass gaming, it will take a long time to reach where you get consistently matched against players of equal skill level. This coupled with resets every 3 months is what got me bored of iccup. I have more fun mass gaming personally if the system just gives me good matches and.. awards fairly without bugs^^
like in your example, if you gain +6 points with this MMR system it seems equal skill gives you like 20 points or so for a win, so +6 means your opponent has quite a bit lower MMR. In theory it is not too tough a win for you to take, but in practice since the MMR is bugged and keeps waving up and down abnormally, maybe your opponent is actually of nearly equal skill you take a tough game and only get 6 points now its annoying

I think the MMR system is much better than that, but currently MMR just keep going up and down because games are counted double irregularly or smtg like that, so it really doesnt work as well as it should. #1 thing missing for me is just fixes to the bugs in the match counting stuff. I think probably, MMR represent different level of skill from a server to another, so with global matchmaking it maybe makes a trouble because you only get matched global when you are higher it seems? so it makes point distance after a threshold maybe

but yeah I think smtg like 2 month for a map pool, sounds pretty nice, maybe even 3 months, not alienate if you stop playing for a week or two, and time enough to try lot of things and really learn from each map rather than always trying to learn maps lol

yeah there seem to be lots of issues with the ladder. from lag, to games being counted twice (I'm 15-4 atm, but on the ladder rankings, it says im 27-8), to disconnects not being registered (opponents have disced prolly 5 times, seems like randoming pisses people off), to the map pool being kinda dumb, turn rate not being adjustable and it being kinda unplayable against many koreans, to not being allowed to race pick (this is the by far biggest issue to me, largely ruins my experience, even if everything else was 100% perfect). But the actual point system is one thing I wouldn't do anything about.
