I dont see the point in having so much seasons... just to have a nice icon in my profile? I would agree if bnet 2.0 would have an auto tourney thing like wc3, for now its pointless to have short seasons like that

the only good reason are the maps rotation, but they can change them in the patches ...

2 months a season feels a bit short. More seasons means more ladder lockdowns. No one likes to play when the ladders are locked.

We should do something against shorter seasons. Petition or special thread or anything else.
Blizzard should listen to us.

Short seasons are fine, but 2week lock downs are bad and are not needed at all.

Strange. If every season is ≈8 weeks and the ladder lock time is 2 weeks, then 20% of all gaming time is within the ladder lock. Seems not very attractive to me.

Maybe the ladder lock is going to be shorter for next season since it is going to be 2 months long? Come on guys give Blizzard a break. The duration of a season isn't going to change the fact of you sucking or you being good. If you truly are master level then you can become masters within any given time, if you truly are bronze level then you will stay bronze level.

90% of the posters in this thread claim that they dislike a 2 month season. And none of them bother to say why....

MMR stays the same.
Lockout is short.
GM players will rotate in and out faster.
New maps are good.

What the fuck are people complaining about? Seasons could be 1 month long and it wouldn't make a damn bit of difference.

2 months? WTF?

I was fine with 6 month seasons. This is bullshit.

the season restart is also to sort out the inactive players, thats what i like about new seasons. when i played company of heroes a year ago. I was ranked around top 10000 although most people were inactive

Hopefully shorter ladder seasons will teach people how meaningless their rank actually is so they can focus on getting better instead of what color their badge is.

Doubt it though.

I am loving it.

200 games a season should be enough.

I'm against it, but whatever, don't care. Will make going from Bronze to Masters harder again.

No it will not? Your MMR still changes while locked.
