Pretty soon GM league will fill up and Blizzard will roll out Ultimate Nuclear Space Dragon League or something.

Biggest fail with the diamond crap was that they just renamed the divisions, some people not feeling like copper was a good enough name for the lowest league apparently.

I like the idea but 100 200 even 500 players is too small. I pop in and out of top 200 NA really often, it'll be weird if I get promoted and demoted on a weekly basis. What happens to your points in a system like that?

I think top 1000 is the smallest it should realistically be.

this is great news! I hope to face a grand master 300 apm player one day. I am tired of horrible diamond players with 50 apm.

500 Is too much maybe even 200. It would completely missed point with more then 200.

A "GM LEAGUE" would be the same shitfest that Diamond is, anyone can get there by cheesing their way to the desired rank.

If they are going to create another league, then only have the top 50-100 in the server on it using players hidden rating. Either that or just invite top players, those that actually play in tournaments and get far into them. (A invite only, league.)

If you read it it sounds like only 2% of diamond players will be in there. That is according to some posts only 850 players will be in it from each region.
When I think of something else, something will go here

GM League kind of makes me think of "Good Manners League" instead of "Grand Masters"

Uh well arent most of the divisions stacked with good players and well known names anyway (especially the early ones)? Not much of a change, isn't it? If you want to be professional - go for ladder tournaments or - most important - goddamn LAN. This GM league is just the facebook integration of the division system-

Top 2% is to much... im ~1700-1800 points and

from SC2 ranks im currently

#597 (1.35% of 44,313, 99th percentile)

Well within the top 2 %

Apparently there are 117,866 players in diamond in NA, 2% of that would represent ~2300 odd people... If they want this Grand master league to be someone pros would actully play.. id have to say top 1% of ladder included... max
