What is that link that people are quoting?


Apparently a map hack or something; I don't click links I don't know anyway, so I wouldn't recommend it.

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?


Yes there is always a large number of players being promoted/demoted. But it's the same way that if a website has a lot of traffic typically, if you suddenly ramp up the amount of traffic on the website, if the servers cannot handle the huge spike in traffic, the website suddenly goes down. My question is basically addressing the same concept for the Battle.net servers.

If their servers are not ready to handle such a sudden spike of changes, is it possible that even after they fix the bug, will Battle.net possibly crash due to this fix?

has anyone been promoted grandmasters lately?
http://sc2ranks.com/gm/
few cases:
1) RU-region grandmaster league only consist of like 100 ppl at this moment.
It is because old grandmaster players get demoted cause of inactivity(that ladder specific case) but no new promotions.
2) EU competition to get in to grandmasters is huuuge, yet its not filled, while there are top masters that clearly should be grandmasters already.

so yea, something wrong going on thats for sure
the game changes as you get higher

Last night my gf's 2v2 ID got promoted to masters. Maybe the lock is just for 1v1 or grandmaster?

Love how this news gives everyone the opportunity to say they're playing "top masters".

I just lost to a guy on ladder afterwards he sent me a message saying that he just got promoted when he beat me. So maybe they fixed it? I have been stuck at rank 1 gold for a while now myself hitting nearly only plats and even a diamond.

You don't think he played his placement or something along those lines?

Nope I can look at his profile and see that he has 57 wins in 1v1s. Also in game he said he was gold (yes I still hit a few of those) and after when I look at his profile it says plat.
