Instant Challanger searches for random opponent and gives a random map ( only good maps , Tau / longius / arcadia , reverse temple / ect..

I like the system. No dodgin just good games and easy to find opponent fast

really nice system, it puts you against people 200 points lower than you and you cant get out of it. +3 points for a win and -40 for a lose is awesome.

the system is indeed awesome, because if you want to stay at the top you simply have to be good. Its not like pgtour : Well lets play that 20:20 guy at D+. Now lets play that 30:30 guy at C- ect..

Its random map vs any opponent. Win or lose. Lose much if u lose vs a worse player. Win much if u win vs higher guy.
The system is actually the old battle net ladder system.. Which is really cool for the competition.

So idra, dunno why u are so sarcastic about it..
For sure its hard, but its not bad : P

that would be fine if all the 0-0 people were necessarily worse players. if you're 1250 and get a competent player who happens to be just starting you're 250 points ahead vs a potentially decent player. shit happens and all the sudden you're out a bunch of points for losing to a good player.

you should be given the option of declining the match if the player is more than 100 (or whatever) points below you since its lose/lose for the higher player.
