So PGG is playing in SLTV Qualifier
The second round proved to be impossible for PGG. He will have to Retry another time.

But I agree, the general consensus seems against it. I can understand that people might have anxiety about it, kind of like in sc2. | ||

Having a ranked option would offer depth and something to play around with during your never ending cycle of public games. Starcraft pros have nothing to prove either yet often set goals such as 'top10 GM' or getting #1 GM etc. As far as ranked matchmaking goes, I'd like to have the option but I don't wanna debate it again because we've done it 900x. ^_^. | ||

Yango specifically said he doesn't see why Pro's would even care about having this mode or not, I merely posted a reason they might want it and then made an analogy to SC players. Ladder will always been a grind-y practice arena for professional players, it will never be a metric to judge their skill and will have no meaning to them on the professional stage, but it doesn't mean they don't want to be high ranked or have something to do during their endless practice sessions. | ||

tmm has a rating. The only form of competetive Dota at the highest level is 5n5, not a couple of random people thrown together. Want to be competetive yourself? Go find like-minded people and start playing tmm. | ||

That's a pretty dumb logic, if anything the "vocal" ones are in favor of it. And people that vote in poll represent pretty much nothing valuable. And the AdmiralBulldog part is just pure speculative you can't really be serious about that. | ||
