I think if you put deliberate effort into it you can determine which league it is without trouble. If your vision is impaired or are colorblind then I suppose you cannot unfortunately

it's not hard at all to recognize the leagues, once you see them once or twice you already get used to it.

The diamond and masters should be switched in the OP's first picture IMO.

The colors don't match currently...

What you mean? Text color? Diamond is more blue, when Master is closer to cyan color.

Sorry the portrait outline under the diamond symbol looks like it matches the masters symbol color

Edit: you would think the lighter portrait outline would match the lighter symbol (diamond symbol is lighter than master symbol and yet the portrait outline for diamond is darker than the portrait outline for masters

holy crap edit 2: under further inspection it looks like the diamond portrait outline has a crystalline texture to it, which obviously matches the diamond rank, I do wish the colors were switched though ^^

this kind of makes me feel like there are too many leagues =/

That icon at the bottom-center is a really, really good idea

The difference between Diamond and Masters are the black border decals around the masters one. they are more noticable on the left and right of the border, but they are also on the top and bottom.

The difference between masters and diamond is that they're 2 DIFFERENT colours. Seriously it's basically light blue vs dark blue, how hard is that to tell apart...

I wish there was portrait borders for team games as well.

If you play 2v2, your current highest 2v2 league would be around your border. Vice versa for 3v3 and 4v4.
When you play 1v1 or Arcade games it could be your current 1v1 standing.
You are what you eat.

Actually, I have. I quit playing HOTS a while ago after cheesing from bronze to silver. Picked it up recently to screw around in unranked ladder. After playing a couple bronze and silver players I was matched against a GM player (ranked 198 of GM). When I saw the after game screen, my jaw dropped. I won the game too :D It was ZvZ and I cheesed. Since then, on the unranked ladder I have played a huge range of players going from silver to diamond. Oddly enough I don't think I've had any masters players yet.



ya there is something wrong with HOTS GM one season i was going 50/50 in my silver league and then it placed me in GM super hillarous

This is currently my only motivation for staying in GM. I love the shinies.

I feel Silver vs Plat, gold vs GM, diamond vs masters takes a little squinting to see.

I'm not sure about Diamond vs Masters in game. But for the rest, you can't possibly be matched against both Gold and GM (or Silver and Plat), right :s?


You'd be surprised. The MMR is weird in hots. I beat a GM and then got matched up against a gold player 1 or two games after. -_-
