Altough i will be in the top 20% i dislike it that there is no communication towards virtual ticket holders. There has been. Iv'e been harassing blizz about it since November. The virtual ticket waves are still going. For some fucking reason they can't do all the virtual ticket holders in 3 waves but they can do the top 20% of the total player base in 1 wave this week..... I have 3 accounts that will get into the 20% wave. I'm annoyed that the "priority access" virtual ticket holders were going to get is irrelevant now because everybody will be getting the beta anyway. Everybody who attended blizzcon already got in, but not all virtual ticket holders did. Really not fair imo.
Thanks, i overlooked the post on battle.net

What's Virtual Ticket ? Blizzcon ticket ?
EDIT : Yes it is. I'm installing.

why? theyre trying to balance their game, they need reliable data to do that

So you say that a Silver MMR guy who played shitload ammout of games and has no idea what he is doing in a game should be more useful for the testing purposes than a Master MMR guy who played like 10 times less? I tend to disagree, sir.

I got a beta invite on the 22nd, might have gotten it earlier though since I haven't received an email about it. I just saw that the Lotv-beta option was there in the server list. (I didn't get the beta on the first round)
I'm currently platinum on EU
EDIT: Fyi; I had the virtual blizzcon ticket

Has it been clearly stated if this is top 20% on just NA or worldwide?

To be honest 10% would've been a better bet. 20% is too broad. (Not just saying that because I'm in the top 3% )

(Not just saying that because I'm in the top 3%  ) Exactly. Do we really want plat players helping decide balance? So, instead of giving it to some guy who plays 10 ladder games a season but stays in diamond, I wish they would have rewarded that kid that's top 8 gold each season.
Also, with eco changes it might actually be beneficial to see if active lower league players would be able to grasp the changes easily (hopefully allow blizzard to try new things).

It's far fetched as fuck but that could maaaaaybe be an indication they wanna steer away from balancing the game to fit the casual and more towards the higher level player. Like I said, far fetched but a possibility I guess.
