Wow, didn't knew that this was a bug, still i noticed that it was strange that i won 3 games ina row and got +4,+6,+4 and after one loss -14, which brought me always to ZERO. And Stim is getting 170 seconds now, well, gotta start reasearching earlier :/
Yea, they found that if your MMR was in the negatives, the system would try and make your points go closer to that (hence just sticking at 0)

I wouldn't wipe my butt after the patch with the new HT. The term "paperweight" doesn't even come close to describing them. Gonna have fun losing to mass vikings now..

why would this change from previously? simply because they don't know how bad their W/L record is? We already get people saying "I'm 300 wins 250 losses, why am I still in bronze!" I honestly don't see there being much difference.

P complaining the sky is falling at every nerf is more tiring then Zs below masters complaining they lose because of imba. HTs will now be very similar to BW, where they need to be protected, likely using warp prisms a lot more to ferry them around.

anybody notice they added destructible rocks/a full base to the 3rd in taldarim altar?
wee

...Because its as easy to make 4 immortals as it is to make 8 marauders... seriously with the number of barracks terrans can pump out, have fun trying to get a winning number of immortals out in an equal amount of time.

Except Warp Prisms aren't resilient as Shuttles, and every race actually has anti-air units in their builds now.

Anyone notice that Shakuras does not have a backdoor entrance to the main? I kind of like that.

Bold prediction #1: P is going to dominate until 1.4 comes out.
Losing the amulet hurts, but 6gate double forge armies are going to run around crushing everything with better zealots and 18 sentries.
Also, perhaps this is a bold and unheard of method for game balance, but has Blizzard ever considered just reducing the haste or speed bonus of Stim Packs? It seems like such an obvious thing and probably has less of an effect on metagame than giving it a 6 year research time. Start with movement speed first. Make it so they still do a ton of damage, but can't kite as effectively.

Lol. Just checked... My friend in silver who hasn't laddered in ages just started laddering again.. O_O I wonder if it's Coz of the patch..
sucks about khaydarin though =( what can you do. Play on! XD
|
Ah yes om nom nom stim time increase--this will make fe'ing even easier. Maybe doable off 2gates vs a stim push......still waiting for multiplayer to actually allow me to queue for match. It always messes up with fagpatches :/
|
Does anyone else reallly hate the fact that we can't check w-l anymore?
|
Delayed bunkers and stim combined with a lategame Protoss nerf? Hellooooo 4gate!
|
Does anyone know whether your MMR increases during this league lock? If getting promoted/demoted depends on MMR, which is the general consensus, will you suddenly get promoted/demoted after the lock is removed? i.e. After playing that one placement game?
I realize that no one here may actually know, but I hope someone can at least provide some insight.
|
MMR does still change until next seasons first placement match. Theres a blue post on it in the Bnet forums.

lol@warp prisms being a form of protection

Anyone else finding the 1v1 quick match menu incredibly buggy?
Half the time there's absolutely nothing there. Then eventually the options (game type/race/map pref) come back ... then they disappear again afterwards.
If no-one else is having this problem I'll screenshot it.

huh? What about other matchups? You think it's fine that blings without speed who are offcreep move as fast as stimmed marines and marauders? Or what about broodlords, herd derp takes only 15 sec to actually catch them with marines, not like it's hard enough right now... Lastly in TvT this will seriously mess up fights. Neither player will probably commit even when tanks aren't sieged because you can just run away from stimmed marines.... Haven't heard so bad suggestions for long time.

Anyone in masters notice that there is a grandmasters banner next to the top 8 in their division? It seems like it implies that only the top 8 in each division get in to grandmasters and people in stacked divisions get screwed, while people in garbage divisions get in.
EDIT: or is that golden grandmaster looking banner just meant to be for achievements at the end of the season?

Why does Bnet have to be in maintenance?!?!?!?!?! Well I can't wait to have my top 8 rank in division medal!!! :D
