You have masters players who que against and play against GM's all the time. But yet they dont get any recognition. Sure they may be no-names, but the ones who end up taking games off those known individuals still are there doing it, despite not having a ridiculous symbol. Blizzard needs to not lock GM. Honestly they need to have it rotating in and out with a current basis of players. Just have the MMR formula register individuals correctly to differentiate the points between Masters and GM once acquired or lost. For some people who aren't on teams or aren't good enough to be on teams but still love playing the game as competitively as they can probably care... GM may just be for bragging rights, but it gives a lot of people something to strive for, and while it may not really matter for top tier pro players, for those "no-namers" who are trying to make a name for themselves, or just want to compete it can mean a lot. | ||

If the MMR cap is 3000 let's say, and after 1 week has elapsed in a new season they say "okay the #200 guy is 2876, that's the entry requirement for this season", you're not going to get that high after 5 placement matches on a new account. The people who were middling Master or Diamond players from last season who had their MMR carry over aren't going to be that high either. The GMs from last season would be, but I don't think they're counted if they haven't played any games in the season so far, so if that's what you're suggesting (#200 spot is artificially pushed lower because all the best players are just waiting for GM to launch before playing) then it's possible, but of course we don't have a lot of visibility there... yeah that is kind of what im geting at. the gms from last season etc, good job explaining what i was trying to say.. and the lack of transparency of the ladder is one of the things im most frustrated about it. i understand it for the lower leagues, like bronze. but there should be transparency for the players that arent ranked extremely terrible. | ||

They're obviously going to fix it just like they did last season and the people who deserve it will get in. Unless it really sucks because you have to be patient for a few days? | ||

Last season at the beginning I remember I would win 3 games and get no points but then after losing all the points factored in like usual. me too >< Won 2x games and they didn't show up in my record and I didn't get any points. I lost 2x afterwards and the losses show up in the record and I lose the points. I won my next game and it counted as a loss in my match history and it says Results Disagree! If I click on details. Anyone from last season know what happens if they fix it? ![]() | ||

GM league unlocks 1 week after the start of a new season, 1 week = 90 bonus pool, 90 bonus pool or less is required to get into GM league, it takes a win to use up bonus pool. Therefore no 0-1 players should ever be able to get in for that reason alone, but in addition to that, a win is supposed to be required for a promotion. | ||
