I like this!

I also think they should revamp it and go ICCup-style ranks ... but I should know better.

Wasn't there going to be something similar called the "Proleague"? That sounds more badass than "Grand Master League", which reminds me too much of chess.

Pro League would be absurd and missleading as people isnide it may not be "pro" like "professionnal", ie : I play SC2 for a living.
If a Pro League would ever be existing I think it should only be opened to teams identified as real pro teams, so basically an "on invite basis" league.
Terran is OP because of their music theme. Yes, definitely.

i wonder what kind of difference it will make other than bragging rights. if it's only the top 100 of the current diamond league, they'll still be matched up a lot against mid to high diamond opponents, just like before.

i guess it will just be an excuse for the top 100 to call people "diamond scrubs" when they lose to them.

I doubt its the top 100, he said to 2%, which is much more then 100, but then the next comment was or top 100 overall. So Im kinda confused my self. And you are right the pool will need to be much larger then 100 people if they actually want to match Grandmaster vs Grandmaster.

blizz should've saved "diamond" for this and stayed with the copper/bronze/silver/gold/plat concept - haha that's what we get for blizz trying to please newbs...

It sounds like it's a capped league, so saying "I'm GM League" might actually mean something.

Since "Pro League" is more associated with Brood War, I think "Grand Master League" sounds spot on!

There might have been issues with blizzard calling it Pro League in Korea, so they've settled for this new name. I don't see what the fuss is about, I'm just happy there is another league on top of diamond which will have more meaning when you attain it.

They'll probably cap it to whatever level David Kim happens to be at the time.

I'm really interested to see the mechanics of players moving in and out of this league, but knowing blizz it will prob end up being something like "players switch in and out every 3 months or so"

Who knows though, maybe they would go by that top 200 league thing they post every week. Also Pro League > Grand Master league.
