Me and Mikilatov were 3rd place in the 2v2 platinum division 1 league. We had just won another game and after we won it told us we were recategorized. It took 100 points from us and put us right back in the same league (seeing how we were in the top league/division anyways). We had finally passed Hotbid's team and were feeling really good!

Anyone else have this problem? Its really demoralizing to work for all those points and have them just taken away .

This is your punishment for trying to overtake TL staff.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Definitely tell Blizzard about that. Really crappy bug for you.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

maybe it was trying to put you in the league above platinum that right now doesn't actually exist?

That's why we have a beta test. Report it and I'm sure they'll resolve the bug.

The same thing happened to me and Insane, we were #1, lost one match, and dropped 150 points out of the Top 10

We've since grinded back to 3rd, because we are "1337"

[image loading]


I think overall we're 2-2 vs ViBe/Aelis, we have a winning record vs Frozne/Bubba (though we haven't played them recently so they could be way better now) and we just lots twice to Warlen/Memz (they go Roach/Marine rush where the Terran goes 3-4 rax with no gas, no mule, no addons, and just pumps marines... never seen that before. I think Dark/Nostalgia are TL too, because we chatted with them in game.

Had some fun inner 2v2s with Orb/Haemonculus today too.

I also "lost" a 1v1 because the program itself crashed about 2 seconds into a TvZ !

P.S. Why is it HotBid's team and not for example Lorelei's team T_T

I hope some day blizz releases an explanation of how their point system works because I'm curious about this too but generally they (or uh any game company ever I guess) don't say shit about it

Pretty nice. You're 0-1 against Mazar and I, hehe. Warlen/Memz are friends of mine, but I don't think they have accounts here. I'm going to have to ask them about that build tomorrow because it sounds pretty neat.

Yeah it's an epic build. Warlen/Memz were actually like 16/12 or something terrible, but they adapted Khaymus/I's build and seem to be having great success with it as well. =)

Have you taken into consideration that Blizzard maybe just doesn't like you?

Haha yes, that was the one. We were really confused, but happy to accept your blunders.
