I would like to know, is there any way to prevent the pro from having 3-4 account, because that make the GM league a bit useless if the best player have more than 1 account in the league, with only 200 spots.

But GM is supposed to be the top200 PLAYERS, not the top200 accounts. Surely it makes more sense competitively if each player is limited to one account in GM? I don't think it's policeable in anyway tbh.

Also, as for the not deserving aspect - if there was one player in sc2 who was far better than all the rest (imagine Flash, but SC2), and had so much time on his hands that he bought 200 accounts, and played them all constantly. Would you find it fair that he could have all 200 GM spots just because every other player "cant get 1 into GM"? Your logic is flawed.

if he was able to ladder 200 accounts to GM then he deserves 200 spots in my opinion.

GM, regardless of how it currently is, was always intended as an easily accessible list of the current best players, not just a high score list from an arcade machine. People having more than one account in GM completely voids that.

That being said, not much Blizzard can do about it, I suppose.

If you care about GM league that much, then you're really not competitive in my opinion. It's all about who you play anyways, GM is just an icon.

Frankly, I'm not overly fussed about GM (BECAUSE it's just a shiny badge), but equally I like to know who the best 200players in the world/my region are.

gm will never show the best players because its based on the ladder.

Well, it's supposed to be top 200. If pros can get 4 accounts it is instead the top 50 or top 100, which isn't what Blizzard was intending.
I don't think there is a way unfortunately.

Let's face it, Pro players are always leaving the ladder for periods of time to go play in tournaments. As long as it's the system of "you can only go down if you don't play enough" then GM will be flawed =/

I also agree on that a single player shouldn't have more than one character in grandmaster league at a time.
