EPTJust wandering if anyone of you know what the world rank means in your profile on SC2 ranks.
Pretty sure I wasn't ranked 150 in the world when I was in gold league. And now I'm in plat, it says I'm 800'ish.
Doesn't make sense!!

Edit: In platinum. For example, if you're #150 Gold, there are 149 ppl higher than you in Gold. THen when you get promoted, you lose a lot of points, and now there's 800 ppl w/ more points than you in plat. | ||

There are definitely tiers in other leagues, but I don't think they are calculable, that is no one has figured them out yet. | ||

There is a thread about the whole point system, I didn't follow it very closely though so I am sure I have some errors here and there in my understanding. | ||

I'm #2 in my 3v3v division in plat, and according to sc2ranks I'm world ranked at #2014. That's all well and good, but the dude at #1, who is only 2 points ahead of me, is world ranked at #540. Not only that, but the guy at #3 is world ranked at #607. Furthermore, there are many places in the division where a person's world ranks is inconsistant with his place in the division. Can anyone make sense of this? I'm especially curious to hear Excalibur's take on the matter. | ||

Are you sure you're not looking at the wrong world rank, like the Achievement points rank? | ||

Oddly enough, I just checked back and it seems to have sorted itself out, guess it has long update intervals. Anyway, I'm really sorry for having wasted your time, and thanks for the response  . | ||
