FWIW I decided to learn zerg on my buddy's fresh account that he never logs into and I was placed into diamond after 5 matches. This diamond division was newly created as well, as there's only 50 people in it at the moment.

If MMRs are not locked, and a lot of players are playing against players from leagues well above theirs (Silvers vsing Plats, Golds vsing Diamonds, etc.), will there be a massive number of league changes to occur instantly as soon as this bug is fixed? Because it seems like there are is a fairly substantial number of players that are supposed to be promoted as well as demoted.

Additionally, if there is a sudden influx of league changes, will Battle.net be able to handle the sudden mass change...?

The number of players being promoted/demoted is always big in NA server, because there is so many players there. And the server will handle it just fine, it's like 100 times less stress than at new season when everyone needs a placement, right?

I don't think promotions and demotions or new placements put any stress on the server. Its not that big of a deal to change an attribute to an account.

On my second account I'm consistently beating masters (haven't played a diamond in about 60 games) but I'm still in plat from placements... When the ladder is unlocked will I be promoted straight into masters, or diamond first?

Take your pick.

On a serious note, Blizzard does not actively engage with their community with releasing time tables. It could be next year or it could be in 5 minutes. The only thing that is certain is that it will be fixed, but the time table for it to be fixed will never be announced until it actually takes place.

Yeah, very frustrating the amount of time they take to even just acknowledge they are working on certain technical issues.

Considering he's in GM now this bug should be fixed?

My mate on NA went 0-1 in his 1vs1 placement match this season (went 0-5 last season and didnt play anymore). hes now something like 18-6 and is still in bronze. if you go 0-5 at the start does it take much longer than say if you went 2-3 and got to 18-6? also can you skip a league entirely like go from gold to diamond? or do you need to play a couple of games in plat to go up to diamond? the whole system waiting for your MMR to settle explains alot.

I guess I can stop playing 4v4 now. The only reason I was playing was because the gold icon looked ugly on my profile and I wanted at least platinum.

Your initial placement matches have a higher effect on your MMR than regular matches. So 2-3 in placement and 18-6 total would get you considerably higher MMR than 0-5 in placement and 18-6 total.

Note, however, that 24 matches are a really small sample size and unlikely (though very well possible) to get you promoted (or demoted) anywhere. The system accounts for winning and losing streaks. For example, on a couple different occasions I've had streaks of 10 matches won in a row without getting promoted any time soon.

You can skip a league entirely. The system doesn't promote you until it's relatively certain of where you're supposed to be. (When you're winning and losing consistently against players of that level.)
