I've barely played much at all in the last month or two and got in. Masters every Season in 1v1 except the first season, in which I was Diamond.

To clear up any misconceptions on how the invites work:

To be eligible for a beta invite, you must be signed up for the beta on the bnet beta page and you must meet the minimum system requirements.

After that it is simply random. It does not matter if you are masters or bronze. I bet it does not even matter if you own or hvae been active in SC2.


I am not sure if its completely random. I have been in every beta since TFT. Usually in the first wave even. I got in wave 3 this time around and thats the latest. Am I just that lucky? Or is it because I play a lot and am decently high ranked and give out feedback on the b.net forums?
I will not be poisoned by your bitterness

I couldnt find a place to post this but..

A third wave of beta invites was extended today to over 7,000 players. Like last week, this wave include mostly individuals who opted in via the Battle.net Account Management system.

As a quick reminder -- For those of you still looking for an invite here are a few things you can do to increase your chances:

Opt in for the beta using the Battle.net system.
We are not allowed to email you an invitation without your consent.

Play StarCraft II Wings of Liberty.
We are inviting equal numbers of players from each league to join us in the beta and prioritize players who have been playing the game at some point over the last 6 months.

Keep an eye out for community giveaways.
We will do our best to keep you up-to-date on where those are happening via our social media channels (Facebook, Twitter) and here on the forums.

Thank you for being passionate about StarCraft! We really do look forward to getting as many people into the beta as possible.

This is such a joke random noobs that have not played the game for month get invites, but I dont get one? I have played WoL beta, play every day and have been masters ever since. I even played this fucking arcade beta just to get an invite and this is the reward? Thx a lot blizz...


Beta access isn't a reward. They do it randomly because they want a wide range of players.

You could have been hand-picked for a couple due to your tester-qualities or activity but it is most likely just luck.

So every single Friday wave thus far was out by now (though the blue post needed some more time last week).
Maybe it's actual Friday in us now, after all it's 1 a.m. at blizz headquarters atm.

Just checked last weeks blue post about invite, it was made about 13 hours from now, though I remember invites being sent out before that.

Maybe they first want to release a possible patch before the next wave.

Aren't the waves biweekly, so every second week?
I though there were only 3 waves yet. So next would be on next Friday.
I had to wait a couple of days for the invite after winning the Twitch.tv sweepstake... (thanks Twitch and Blizzard)
