Using it with success against Mana or Grubby is not the same as using it against some NA grandmaster protoss either.

Sheth said EU ladder was much harder aswell ...

That was a sexy macro game on TDA against that meching terran. Massive tech switch from BL/Corrupt/Infestor to Ultra/ling back and forth and back and forth. Was fun! :D

"Favoured opponents" means that you should have a much higher point score, so the system is going to artificially inflate your points by making you win more and lose less until you reach where you "should be".

I wasn't guessing at what it means, I was explaining exactly what the favoured designation does. It's a ladder point adjustment system.

You have points and MMR, and if your MMR is high but your points are low, you'll get "favoured" opponents and gain more points for each win until your MMR and shown points are at a similar level.
goes the other way if your MMR is below displayed points.
Oh and also, you can be shown as favoured as someone who sees you as favoured vs them too. That in itself shows that it isn't just "who should win"

IdrA's fanclub has 2012 pages. It's the year 2012. Coincidence? I think not.

No. This isn't up for debate, you're just basing your opinion off of an arbitrary label, instead of what the system actually does.
Two players can't be ranked higher than each other at the exact same time. Two players can be "favoured" against each other in the exact same game.

trying to say it arbitrarily gives more points to someone that isnt dependant on the opponents skill doesnt make sense
