Sad Artosis didnt make it. He had a good chance before ladder reset. After reset he faced couple pro koreans so was a huge struggle to even get to A rank for him...

can still play in the gosuleague I think? that would make sense, too. Since top4 gets the ro24 seed for BSL12

but he probably won't, which is a shame for sure. Would be cool to see him getting smacked by foreigners a bit

Ladder reset substantially improved his chances. With no reset the MMR required would have likely gone up to 2350-2400 due to EU inflation, late season inflation, and the sheer number of good players applying. I got 2300 NA and there are plenty of players better than me, 2300 would not have been enough.

The reset reserved 17 slots for players who mass gamed early in the season which left a lot of the strongest players ineligible. Dewalt wasn’t eligible for one of those 17 slots, for example. That brought the MMR requirement down from 2350+ to 2250.

Artosis had a 0% chance of getting in without a reset, he is simply not capable of getting the MMR required in that scenario. But he mass games early season and had a fairly good chance of getting in from the easier path with the reset. He could have potentially had 2250 on that day.

The reset made the path much easier for players like Artosis. 0% chance of qualifying without reset but maybe 10% chance of qualifying with reset. His problem isn’t the reset, it’s that even when given a much easier path to qualify he still couldn’t meet the new lower MMR requirement.

you spend a lot of time talking about him, which is funny cause the only reason you made it in is the reset as well.

Chill dude, this level of obsession is supremely offputting.

This is a difficult comment to respond to, both because of the idea that responding to someone else bringing up Artosis in a space I was already in is obsession and the implicit assumption that I wouldn't want to put you off. I'll address the first by saying that I didn't come here to talk about Artosis, I was already here, someone else brought him up, I was just pointing out the obvious flaw with the idea that Artosis was somehow hurt by a change that let lower skill massgamers into BSL more easily. Regarding the second, if me responding to someone else about Artosis puts you off me then I view that as an absolute good. I don't know where you got the idea that I want you to want to fuck me but rest assured, I don't. This isn't going to happen between us. My tl posting was never intended to turn you on and if it's failing to turn you on I don't have a problem with that.

That's the point. The reset let in bad players who played a lot during the early season like me. I wouldn't have made it in with 2300 either had there not been a reset. Artosis complained about the reset letting in bad players who massgamed without noting that he is exactly the kind of player who could only get in that way. That's why it's funny. We both got lucky but he resented the luck.

I don't see a single bad player from pre-reset ladder qualification. Even you are not bad, even if you say so.
But i agree, that at the start of a new season in Korea is impossible to gain high mmr for Artosis.

The fact that he went to this much trouble though really does imply that he's upset that I don't want to fuck him. Going through chat logs and taking a bunch of screenshots is stalkery behaviour. Dude, just no.

It’s not a secret ID, it’s an ID I’ve used for bw a lot, and the date stamps show that I say something in like 5% of all his streams.

It says that I sometimes watch his stream and sometimes comment. With a baby I can’t always play bw so I sometimes put bw streams on the tv at night. Sometimes that’s his stream.

Honestly I think the most shocking thing there is that I beat action.
