EPTLeague Promote Bugged? - Page 5
| Forum Index > Closed |
Something is up with league changes, but we don't know what specifically is the root cause. Blizzard is aware of the issue and are testing a hotfix. -- Excal_Z 6/15 This does not mean that there is a global ladder lock!! There is some bug affecting some players but it is not universal. -- Excal_Z 6/16 Might be fixed. Some of the affected players were promoted. Need more data. -- Excal_Z 6/17 | ||

I would have expected to be atleast be promoted to plat since I'm 50/50 with diamonds | ||

Are you saying that is 100% CONFIRMED that the promotion system is bugged for some players? I talk to them. I brought this up a couple of days ago, they investigated, then later confirmed it and said they were testing a hotfix. That's all the info I had. | ||

For example, lets say a bronze jumps to the silver/gold threshold. Because of this uncertainty (whether they are gold or silver), they may not get promoted. However, in my opinion, they should be automatically promoted to silver in this case. I have a feeling that the ladder system assumes gradual increases. | ||

Because of this, the ladder can't determine where to place them and thus they remain unpromoted. For example, lets say a bronze jumps to the silver/gold threshold.

I have a feeling that the ladder system assumes gradual increases. Generally, it promotes you when you either: A) pass the threshold with stable enough performance (by winning and losing games at a certain level) B) pass the threshold substantially (by winning games well beyond the minimum for the league, like silver beating plat/diamond consistently) Regardless, they will be promoted into the next league at least, even if they are straddling 2 leagues other than their current. | ||
