The top 1000 from sc/wc3 ladder gave me a huge drive to improve my play. It was a huge moment for me when I finally made it on the top 1000 in wc3, I was now on the official ladder ranking page for all to see! I felt truly triumphant!
Yet I still had a long way to go, still a thousand players for me to set my sights on and it drove me to improve my rank. I don't have that feeling with the current system, and I really miss it.
Blizzard, I humbly ask you to return a global ranking system to Starcraft 2.

I find it amusing that some people whine about Blizzard catering to new players and the "everybody is a winner" mentality.

Stroking your e-peen to a global ranking to feel better about yourself is basically the same thing as the division system, but catering to the opposite side of the player-base.

I support having the division system and then having a pro league at the very top that's ranked, so everyone gets satisfied.

AGREEEEE, Its a shame, I know there are millions of competitors, but knowing where you stand in comparison to EVERYONE is something we all desire.

Also feel that when you get to the top of your division you get kind of slack, and feel lethargic with no other thing to "aim for" persay.

I won't sign it, since i think this kind of ladder is better for number of people that are going to be in sc2. But i don't like it in 100% of course. I stated it in some other topic here on tl net. Those leagues and number of divisions in it should be like a pyramid. Having infinite number of TOP league is just stupid. I will show u that using my pro drawing skillz.


How it is now: ( BEHOLD OF MY PAINT SKILLZ!):

Quite plain and stupid system we have now, don't we?

How i think it should be :

I find it more interesting and giving more info about players. After all sc2 is competetive game and we we want it to be like that. But, those are just my wishes, nothing more ; - /

I don't like this carebear approach to the game either. Ladder is ladder, and should be competitive, Viking Romeo doesn't tell me a thing.

It's just extremely dissapointing how obscure and restricted the new Battle Net 2.0 is.
Especially the ladder ranking system is a huge punch in everyone's face, who loves to look trough the ladder rankings. I remember doing this a lot in Wc3.

Seriously, there's no reason to hide it. I'm a bad player, and I still want to compare myself to others. Remember iccup? Boy, I sure do remember saying how much I didn't want to be looking at the standings.

What's frustrating is, Blizzard has said nothing about which features will or will not be in Battle.net 2.0 at the release of StarCraft II, but almost everything I've seen - from horrible service to lack of even the simplest features that the original Battle.net took for granted - is a disappointing mess.

Just... disappointing.

So many spammers with /signed burying actual posts.

Regarding my previous posts, one thing I'd like them to add is a "league ladder" because divisions have too small of a player pool to judge. I still stand besides the league system though, and that comparing players between leagues is pointless.
I hate the post below mine because it feels War3-ish.

IMO this is one of the BETTER aspects of Bnet 2.
I don't care about my stupid Logo. Or how superior I feel bragging about it on TL.
99% of games I am matched up with someone very very comparable skill to me. Their APM is usually similar as well as their overall skill.
This has proven true as I've worked my way through most of the Leagues and improved.
Though- I understand this isn't true for the top 1% of players- this is because there could be very few on who would even offer you resistance.

Lots of things about 2.0 are trash though- don't get me wrong. Challenging, but not overly difficult games- have been in abundance thus far for me.

I think the ICCUP-like system would be better, just replace the rank names. D->Copper, C->Bronze etc. and 0-500 Copper, 500-1000 Bronze etc.
