Last season i was 2267 Diamond with 75 bonus remaining.(72-40) Now i am http://sc2ranks.com/eu/2202329/NrSKsis I am gaining like 20-21 points every game, and i am losing 2-3 points. The question is: Is my MMR that high and i will need to make my MMR=Points, or is my MMR that low that everyone is favored. Last season i was playing only vs 1500-1900 Masters and many Grandmasters ( even from first 20). I got ratio vs GM like 45% wins. I had only about 6-7 games vs Diamond in season 2. This season i started vs 3 GM and won only once, then i won 1-2 GMs aswell. Other games vs high masters. | ||

It's your points which are compared to your opponent's MMR, and that determines the favored-unfavored stuff. | ||

Generally yes, if that's a trend you notice. Your points will drift toward your MMR. As you are playing against harder opponents, your points will rise faster and leave behind that 500-point player. | ||

No, points have no impact on promotion eligibility at all. When you get promoted, your points are reset anyway but you retain any bonus pool that you've spent. | ||

So not straight even if result was the same. | ||

However, it appears that it's showing last season's total. Does anyone know where we can check for this value? | ||

Does anyone know where we can check for this value? That's only half bugged. The TW, US, LA, RU, and KR servers don't exist anymore (well they do but under different external names) so Shadowed never stopped them from accruing. If you look at the other servers: FEA, SEA, and EU, you'll see the correct values. The "half-bug" is that the NA+LA server, AM, is using the Season 2 values, so that should be fixed. As for how to check, what I've been doing is just going to my division (and pretty much all divisions will have this) and looking for a player with 0 wins. Select him, go to the division he shares with you, and record his bonus pool from the top right. Right now the website is bugged for non-Master divisions and shows the Master accrual rate for all leagues, but you can get the accurate number in-game (or just multiply the website value by 0.58). | ||

Cheers! Yeah, I never noticed the new servers (AM, FEA, etc), I always just looked at US. Thanks for that | ||

When you don't play a season, your MMR disappears and you're forced to start over again... So even if you were master season 1, if you didn't play season 2 (which I didn't) and come back to season 3 and expect things to be the same; you're dead wrong! WELCOME TO PLATINUM. Blizzard REALLY wants to fuck with people who aren't active (bonus pool and now this). | ||
