People need to stop complaining really. If you are not in, you either have not played enough to reach the desired MMR level, or you are not good enough to reach it. Reality check! :D


Each slot has an mmr value assigned to it.

the lower values were snatched up quickly, so even players that may be better than the lower end of the GM league have higher MMR's now, they are still lower than the availiable remaning slots which are probably assigned to extremely high MMR values for pros that have yet to play their placement.

Therefore, it isn't a question of if oyu're good enough for most people from 100-200, its just simply they were too late

It's their fault for not having a top 200 mmr in the first place. If you have a top 200 mmr, you eun one game and you're in. If you play your first game late, then someone surpassed you and you're not top 200 in mmr anyways. I don't get why you guys are complaining. Mmr is the best way to measure pure skill. It doesn't reward players for mass gaming.


It's the best way to measure people that care about ladder. I'm pretty sure many top players use ladder for practice purposes, to test new stuff, while some other player that doesn't go to tournaments and doesn't win anything always plays to win on ladder even though he would get rapped at a tournament by those players that aren't on GM.

While I'm typing he just won against Welmu (rank 61st grandmaster)...

Anyways, I just wanted to point out that this system is quite stupid. There should've been an extended period where people can get in an out. After, say, a week GM should've been locked. Filling up the low-MMR-spots super fast, just because some ppl were not playing doesn't make any sense.

Darkforce doesn't get in because he would be of worse MMR...he doesn't get in because the mid/low-MMR spots seem to be taken. Therefore he has to get a really high MMR to get one of the "reserved" spots.

Current season is 6-5 and last season was 3700 with over 1300 games. Am i missing something?

It doesn't reward players for mass gaming.

The MMR from 100-400 is extremely packed, it was definetly more of a first come first serve basis, versus a, just having the high enouhg MMR.

I even checked out your account, if you played today, you would not be getting in. Don't act all high and mighty when you simply played early and stole one of hte lowerrated MMR slots. Its a flawed system, but no need to pretend its all perfect just becaus you landed a spot.

i dont like the system

if you eg. if play in korea for a ladder season and then you move to america, you have to wait 2 ladder seasons to reach grandmaster


I wonder if it actually matters. If you get good enough, you will face grandmaster players whole the time, while you are still in masters. I don't think good players care about their league. Ladder is decent practice for them, but that should be it.


They could use grandmaster as pre-reqs to tournaments, or more likely as qualifying for battle-net finals at blizzcon.


They will never do it, since they lock it at the start of the season. Many topplayers will not be able to get into gm league.

Seriously the way they are doing this is beyond stupid... you get "locked in"... why? I can't even imagine a reason for this. Also, i have a feeling that their little "moving average MMR" thing plays too big of a role... if one guy loses 10 games in a row that doesn't mean he isn't one of the best players in the world or anything. But that moving average MMR thing is 100% speculation on my part so who knows. The locked in thing... I really don't like.
Apologize.

You know whats funny? There will be more players in GM than masters league itself in LA. If masters league will have any players at all...

But i dont think being GM in LA counts, lol
