There's nothing about this that makes it sound bugged.

They won't reset the ladder, they will just kick the people that don't deserve to be there later this week. Last time this happened they kicked 120 people out on the Thursday of the same week.

I believe everything is working as planned, besides the fact the system isn't filtering out for 90+ bonus pool. How the 1-0/0-1's are getting in is because their MMRs are higher than the bottom of the original top 200 MMR active players on the server, therefore knocking one of them out.

Their way of locking it in the first place is just stupid which leads to shit like this. If they want it to matter at all they need to have it open for the season so you can fall out if you get below top 200mmr in your region.

GM isn't supposed to fill up in 3 hours lol, when this happened last time and they kicked over 100 people it took the whole day for the 100-120 slots to just fill up.

That doesn't matter. It's based on MMR, and if you were being matched against Idra and Ret, of course you got in. This stuff about having to win your placement match is a myth. It just doesn't work that way. Otherwise if say Idra gets cheesed on his placement match and loses, he doesn't make GM, and that would be silly.

I'm pretty sure its glitched... I've already played some "GM" who were nowhere near top 200 NA. The entire system sucks obviously. They should just call the top 200 point masters GM, and publish a list once a week with their names, calling them GM.


That's far too simple and logical. Given Bnet 2.0, it seems like Blizzard's habit is to overly complicate things that could be easy and efficient.

Just to confirm, for people that weren't doing placements, you had to win to get promoted right?

The way GM is placed using an automated system makes it seem so illegitimate -_-

Expect reset in 1 week


How exactly did it glitch out you got any supporting evidence/resource?

p.s I got in GM woot

People with 0-1 records are not supposed to get in.


Yes they are, its all about the MMR not about the stat.

Though a requirement for GM was to be active :l 0-1 shows the opposite of being active

I don't think this screw up is as bad as last season since there are some notable names in there but I still dont see a lot of players. Hopefully it wasnt top 200 pts first come first serve again as it was last season, although that system would explain why lots of GM's who would have been GM's woke up early to play their placements and get in. I did the same thing this morning and got in, (was rank 38 GM last season), but it still feels meh considering not all of the "top" players are in.
