I wouldn't worry about it until the real game comes out in March. | ||

However, i play nearly exclusively people above me in league, including a Grandmaster. Yes I'm serious. he was rank 200 but he was grandmaster and propmtly destroyed me. This is the problem I've had. For every person close to my skill level, I get 3 that are way above me. I assume it's because most of the people playing HOTS are the more serious players. | ||

If you've won 21 of the last 29 games, brace yourself for a big losing streak. | ||

Today I played 3 players in a row that were at least 2 leagues above me even though I only have a slightly above 50% win rate and they hadn't lost a bunch of games recently that would lower their MMR to mine as far as I know. | ||

I was diamond in WoL, close to masters and I'm gold currently, but the other gold players I'm facing are around the same skill level as what I used to face and I've played Platinum players in HoTS who say they were high masters in WoL. Yet I've played some diamond players and completely destroyed them. I don't know on what server you play WoL but there are huge differences between diamond NA and Diamond in Korea. Since HotS is for all players at once I guess that getting into the same league as you are on your server is harder. That being said, I am high master EU and am high master on HotS, though I face pros pretty often, for me it seems easier to get good opponents and high ranks | ||

I wouldn't have thought there'd be enough players to really bump people down 2 leagues, but as I said I've played and completely destroyed diamond players I've faced. Platinum players I've faced have been better, that's what makes me question the legitimacy of the ranks outside of GM currently. | ||

Sure they might play a little faster, but they are more prone to sticking to the builds used most often in GSL, they are easy to confuse. They do one specific build, and they do it quite well, but if you throw a wrench in the works they are just as bad as diamond on any other server. As far as HotS goes, I went 5-0 in placements last season of HotS, got plat. Then this season I played my 1 placement and won it, got placed in bronze. lol. There's definitely something off about the placement system right now  So you have good players spread all over in various leagues. So just because you are playing a silver player, it doesn't mean his MMR is necessarily silver level. | ||
