I think the short seasons can make you more excited to ladder once it gets reset, and they can add new maps (praying for TLMC!)

I got promoted from Gold to Plat mid season but still finding the league pretty easy and maintaining a 60% win ratio roughly, is it possible to get promoted twice in one season? I really don’t play that much at the moment (have played about 5 games in the last 2 weeks) but tomorrow is my last day at work so I reckon I could easily reach the rough target of 800 points before ladder lock (currently on 550ish, 250+ points in 4 days will be tricky, but doable).

Seasons feel so short now, I remember Season 1 seemed to go on forever.



Seasons are now 2 months long, back in season 1, 2 and 3 there was no structure and they just finished the seasons whenever they felt like it.

The highest masters account on KR now is 1250.... 2nd is 1150.

I somehow doubt 1400 will be reached by anyone lol? Does it END on the 7th or is that just when they lock the ladder for promotions etc.

1 week of bonus pool = +90. And this is for NA.

And does anyone else feel like the platinum diamond line is basically non existent. I constantly play diamonds who clearly don't know what they're doing and platinum players continue to have extremely solid play (compared to my solid platinum play).

I'm #1 in my division, but I feel like it's mostly because I've spent my bonus pool very wisely. I'm probably only 60-40, or 55-45. Probably not enough for a promotion, but damn some of these diamonds don't deserve their shiny status.
P.S. I'm nub. If you'd like you can follow me @xthurst but its not worth it ill be honest

That was too short... Guess my promotion to Masters is not going to be next season :D (those requirements are really quite insane, looking at 1v1 and 3v3 which I've both stayed quite active this season, I'm so far from having the points...)

If they're matched up against you then they're not really diamond, so in a way you're right cus they're moving down.

Why does anyone care about being in GM? It's meaningless. It's all about the MMR.

I think GM should be longer than the 8 weeks. Either that or they fix the system that gives people that have won just few games place in a grandmasters and a player who truely is top 200 region cannot get in just because system is fucked up.

Otherwise I like 8 the season lenghts so far

I have the exact same thing on EU. Losing to plat players that just straight up outplay me and winning convincingly against diamond players that seem to not be placed right. Just switch everything, Blizz? That would make me Diamond
Probably not gonna happen though, my play is way to variable to get promoted in my mind.

I hate how blizzard tries to artificially create excitement for laddering lol. If they wanted to add maps, they could add maps. But they think by shortening the seasons people will be like "oh, i'm going to ladder hard this season!"
