tl;dr topic- OP thinks that "mBnBuki" gamed the ladder system by intentionally losing then got into Grandmaster by getting a win streak of 32-3. This was all speculation as Buki was already in GM before intentionally losing his games (which some people are against) so now this thread is all nonsense talking and complaining. | ||

Yeah no need to get your panties in a bunch OP, maybe you should've read the ladder guide thread before taking your time to take those screenshots and start the thread. He just lost a bunch of games in a row for some reason, and since you don't get kicked out for having low mmr and only for accumulating bonus pool, he wasn't removed from the division. You can rest assured that if his mmr doesn't get back up to gm level next season, he won't get in. No big deal.. Looks like lots of people in this thread have no clue about this and you're trying to discredit the NA gm ladder | ||

The division system is still bad and there's no reason a closed league (by number of spots) should even exist, especially if it flat out doesn't work and is exploitable like we see here. GM should just be masters league and top200 by points should get the orange icons. Its so retarded that they dont just fucking make top 200 of masters = GM, instead of having it be a separate GOD DAMN league. | ||

Yeah that actually makes WAY more sense than this current system... honestly there are so many secret rules to the GM league and MMR in general that I'm not even sure if blizzard knows what's going on here. | ||

Locking GM after one week of play is redundant. There are individuals like Jinro pointed out that are in masters but ranked top 200 over current "GM" players. | ||

GM has been broken since it was announced (as in, when they first explained the rules), and it was obvious then it was dumb. Then it was actually broken this season on NA. And then tis guy showed how broken it is conceptually. | ||

If it changed constantly you'd be getting promoted and demoted in between evey other game at top masters/bottom GM. Also, this thread made me laugh quite a bit. ♥ Actually, you can create a system that demotes past a lower threshhold than the promotions. It would work the same way some mechanical rear spoilers work on cars. At 50 mph, the spoiler raises to give traction, but it doesn't go back down until the speed goes below 40. That way, it's not always going back and forth. If Blizzard would implement a system like this, say where you get kicked out of GM if you reach diamond MMR, then this would never happen and it would prevent multiple hops. The cutoff could theoretically be placed anywhere. | ||

I would imagine that people would still find a way to game the system. Although at least with the straight top 200 the damage wouldn't be for an entire season. | ||
