I just want to suggest that there are division tiers; i was in Medivac Alamo with 2950 points, moved into masters and have 2350 points. Which is, to say, i have the same amount of points as EGiNcontroL, who had 3300 points before the transfer. I also have 500 more points than where LiquidTyler started (1850) despite being with 30 points of him in Diamond (both in S-class divisions)

So...yea. The top guy in my division has 2800 points and he's just some random guy. I'm pretty sure there are divisions based on mmr (which is why argo x-ray is a stacked division), and that mine is like a Z-Class one, lol

No, everyone gets leveled to the exact same ranking once bonus pool is factored in.

I don't think anyone's said it, but the Masters League has appeared to "reset" everyone that gets promoted into it.

It's currently starting everyone with used bonus pool + 73 points. People with bonus pool remaining will have it subtracted from their total point score.

This means anyone who has used their entire bonus pool (and assuming there aren't different classes of divisions) should enter masters at 2329, whether they had 3500 or 2600 points.

It's essentally a "reset", as everyone will start at the same place (bonus pool people will have to go through their bonus pool to be at "2329" first). Good players will go up from there, bad players will fall below it.

2329 is the new 0.

Quick question:
I won't be able to play SC2 until maybe next weekend, but I am already pretty high on the ladder. I did the math, and I was within the cutoff for masters league. If too many people get in, will I miss my chance?

That seems like an awful way of doing it. Like i said, people like Nony, who i was tied with, shuoldn't start 500 lower with 500 bonus pool, if before, he was equal with 500 bonus pool. It seems like a ridiculously arbitrary method of punishing people for no reason. Of course, once the bonus pool is used up, they will be ahead again, but not by nearly as much as they could have been

Mine isn't spending either, but I've only played one game since being promoted to Masters.

I'm rank 1 diamond in random fours, won the last five or six games and still haven't gotten promoted. According to SC2ranks I'm 111th in North America.

Any team players having this problem?

What is your bonus pool? According to your division page, you don't have a bonus pool left.

There aren't really any other than the protoss changes. Except for the scv priority...so specify a bit, please? I know for sure phoenix time is down and you need 3 pylons to block a ramp, so i'm assuming the listed changes at least went through, although there might be glitches

And this isn't the thread for this, either

What exactly are you talking about? Are you referring to any specific changes? What "patch fix" are you expecting to be evident in your game that you do not see?

Please don't drift off topic, and keep discussion to the Master league itself.

GUYS! I'm pretty sure that masters is 2% of diamond league.

check http://www.sc2ranks.com/stats/league/all/1/all

only 800 people in masters so far, that means that it will be 2% of diamond and about 2500 will be in Masters in all.


Not 2% of everybody but 2% of diamond. 800 people is a reasonable number.
A lock that opens to many keys is a bad lock. A key that opens many locks is a master key.

I haven't heard whether it is or not, but people haven't been posting links to any 2v2 Master profiles... I think that's still unanswered.
