Masters is MMR based, someone on SEA is like 35-13 and is in Masters. MMR based Masters is pretty failure. | ||

I'm currently ranked 220 on sc2ranks master division (which calculates the top 200) and I am not making it into Master, yet people that have played at launch, did 5 rax reaper for a few games, suddenly log back on with 2000 bonus points but a killer MMR, and they make it in. | ||

Idk, if I play someone who appears as favored and has 1000+ games I almost always lose. When I run into some guy whose 15-2 and favored I usually roflstomp him cause he got a high rating by beating a bunch of noobs (usually by cheesing every game). I think MMR is useful but for players with lower #s of games there can be a ton of variance in their MMR and I would definitely say that some kind of minimum game threshold for Masters (like 500) would make a lot of sense. I would also say that there should be a requirement of playing a significant number of games recently. I've noticed that occasionally I run into people who haven't played in 2 months and are awful but ran up their MMR early on and I get like 17 points when I beat them but from their play its unclear if they should even be in diamond. | ||

Why is MMR based masters a failure? All the other leagues are also based on MMR, as points mostly just means you play a lot. MMR is the only accurate indicator of skill. | ||

You can't get a high rating by beating a bunch of noobs. The system doesn't work like that. Beating a noob doesn't increase your MMR much, as noobs have low MMRs.. I'm tired of all the excuses, and people blaming the system for their failure to get to league X. The system is pretty straight forward, and people do end up where they belong. | ||
