Great idea Leidenschafft, very useful!

One remark: I am not sure Blizzard will be fine with you using all their graphics on your site. Or there might be an announcement that they actually do allow that for community sites that I am not aware off...

It shouldnt be to hard to replace the images by custom made ones though.

I already sent out requests to get included into their fansite program, to know exactly how they like my websites and the usage of their graphics. As you may also have noted, the Starcraft 2/Blizzard trademark/copyright remark is on the page since day one.

By the way: The site also supports cross-realm divisions, so you can add eu/us/sea/... players to the same custom division!

This is the real strength of the site IMO. Technically if you really wanted to, you could add everyone you know to your friends list and go to your profile > Leagues and Ladders > Friends Rank. You don't get the convenience of a website but it's a lot of the same information. The real benefit is being able to do this across realms, which is pretty neat. Thanks for the effort and the update!

EDIT: Another advantage this site has over the in-game Friends Rank is filtering. I can add people who I don't want on my friends list, which is handy because it doesn't clutter up my friends list or bombard me with annoying toasts. I can also create categorical divisions, say one for Co-Workers for example, that I wouldn't be able to filter using the in-game Friends Rank. Neat stuff.

Player Value, League Value and Average Player Value:

To compare players/custom divisions vs each other I am trying to introduce a new numeric value which should resemble how "good" a player is overall in battle.net. Right now the formula reads like this: League * Ladderpoints + Achievement points + Won career games.
I am trying to include every aspect (pvp + pve) from the game into this value.

By assigning each player a value i can sum up all the points and calculate an average per custom division. You can now easily compare divisions vs each other via the average player value, membercount does not matter this way.

What do you think about this?

edit: also added WLR

Thank you for this. This is really useful.

I'm not sure I agree with the player value including achievements and what not, but everything else is great.

Keep up the good work!

Ok, getting a lot of feedback saying that achievement points and won career games shouldn't count for the player value. Putting more thought into this, I think achievement points already cover the PvE-part of the game in a numeric value and my player value should only include PvP values.

League * Ladderpoints, would this be enough? Any more ideas?

League * Ladderpoints * WLR would be another option, rewarding quality over quantity of games.

Cool job.
I have an issue, which profile url exactly do you have to enter. When I enter this :
http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/profile/303586/1/Mateo/
to add a player it says : invalid profile url.

I like the 2nd one (league*ladder*WLR) more than the first.

Is it possible to create a 2on2 Ranking like this one?

This idea is awesome. We use it to keep track of all our country players (we are a small country afterall)

Thnx for this

I made a division for a discussion server that I'm on, but despite showing the number of members as 24, it only displays the stats for the first 20. Is this intentional?
