If your MMR is high enough, it shouldn't matter if you win or lose your placement match.

I need this to start asap. My rank is falling every hour. Don't want to play and risk losing when I'm already #113 based on points right now.

I think you can get the promotion already (if you are indeed top 200).

and you guys worrying about if you are top 200 right now on this reset; dont worry.. Its based off MMR, not points. I mean, someone who was not even playing last season could just come in and get 1000 pts in masters this season, doesnt mean he'd be in grandmasters. MMR is carried over from last season, and the ones who were top 200 last time blizzard released their weekly updates, will be the ones who get in this GM (barring any that lost a lot since then, but chances are 95% of them kept their MMR high enough)

so dont fuss over being #213th on ladder right now, if you wernt top 200 before you wont get in anyways

Perhaps they chose 2 weeks for this first grandmaster league because they plan to re-evaluate the grandmaster league every so often. If they re-evaluated the grandmaster every 2 weeks it would avoid a constantly changing league but also allow legitimately top players to not be left out in the cold if they missed the initial 2 week window. Hopefully they do something like this, I think a rather stagnant grandmaster league for 3 months would be awful.

This. I think they should update it every 2 weeks, and synchronize the final update with the lock on all other promotions/demotions at the end of a season. Avoids a constantly fluctuating league and at the same time keeps it well updated.

How do you know?

2 weeks have passed already (181 bonus pool), the patch is here.

I don't think it says "now you can get promoted", it's just something it will happen if some of the top 200 tries, isn't it.

you guys should study to become theoretical physicists.

Honestly though, people need to stop complaining about "the REAL top 200"

if they didn't play season one and season two with an amazing consistent win/loss ratio, they don't deserve to be showcased in ladder and that's that.

Who cares if some guy you haven't heard of got into top 200 but say IdrA didn't ? (just an example) Do you think he'll give a shit he didn't make it into Grand Master league? He's out there playing tournaments, the so called "real top 200" will be showcased in a much more respectable manner than just grand master league, they'll be interviewed, rewarded, etc...

If some guy has 1000 pts. That means his MMR is high enough to be in top 200 for sure. If you play well, you can definitely raise your MMR high enough to be top 200. I think you need to be top 100 in points to feel safe about making it to top 200.

The best measure is by looking at who you're playing. If you're playing progamers, then you have a good chance. If you're playing a bunch of no names, you're probably not top 200. Another thing you want to look at is how much points your opponent wins or loses when they play you. If your MMR is equivalent to their displayed points, he loses/wins 12 points. If your MMR is below his displayed rank, he wins less than 12 points or he loses more than 12 points.

just FYI previous blizz top 200's were all by pts not MMR and a nobody coming to get 1k pts will have a high ass MMR because 1k pts right now is no joke lol
