EPTWas it a mass promotion day? Blizzard deciding to rebalance the leagues? Did they do something special or is there something about the way the current season works after a reset that made the promotions all come at once?
Just curious.
Promotion day on battle net?

terribly flawed that post patch, players in teams of 3 or 2 playing 4v4 are now ranked individually in 4v4 | ||

Since the leagues are a relative breakdown % based on MMR thresholds, unless they moved the thresholds without patching the game i'd think the former more likely then the later. They have the ability to do this (change the thresholds without a patch) and this is basically what happened. I don't know how much more I can say on that but I'm surprised that people were able to pick up on it so quickly. | ||

Also, put a regular version of SC2 under your pillow and when you wake up tomorrow, you'll find a brand new collectors edition with a already included GM account! Huray!!! | ||

Excalibur, can you tell us which leagues had their thresholds changed? I assume it's mostly just the lower leagues, since sc2ranks.com still shows like %40 Bronze in NA, which is probably a lot higher than it should be... while the middle leagues are somewhat underrepresented. I've been trying to get into Masters since the patch, but I've noticed it went from like 6% to 3.5% over the past few weeks, so I assume it is also still overrepresented... did they push the mmr threshold for Masters up even more? | ||
