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.

That's only promotions, but you can still gain points from wins and stuff, but your bonus pool will not grow, so only net points come from >50% win rate

feb 7th

They have updated the dates for US server: "The Season 5 lock will go into effect on Tuesday, February 14 PST." and "During the week of February 20, Season 5 will end and Season 6 will begin".

Wow, it happens so fast. The word "Season" is so inappropriate in this case.

I can't believe Blizzard hasn't included a kind of automated, global tournament thing in BNet 2.0.

I think it would be great for motivation if they had an end of season tourney for the all top 8 players in each division (per league).

Then guys would be motivated to get that top spot.[/

This is a nice idea ^^

Apparently it's the 14th now for season lock and 20th (I guess they meant 21st..) for season 6 now:

Daybreak has really proved to be a balanced map across all match ups. It really should be in the map pool. Get rid of the terrible new 2 player map they created this season. (It doesn't deserve a name)
I really like Cloud Kingdom as a replacement since it's a 2 player map.

Yes. Blizzard updated the dates back to 7th/14th like they were originally.

Nethaera 1 day, 7 hours ago: "Please note that the dates have been updated to the 7th and 14th respectively. We apologize for the error." http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/4389645/Season_5_Lock_Coming_Soon-2_2_2012#c-3988492218

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


To those complaining about not having enough time to use up their bonus pool. If you win 6-8 games a week--you've managed to keep your bonus pool at zero. That's about 1.5-2.0 hours of playing a week. That means if you play for one night a week--you've used up your bonus pool.

It seems a season has gone by so fast :O

I really hope season 6 will bring along new maps, especially player designed ones from all the big leagues ^.^

Thats completely incorrect as the game aims for a 50% win. Meaning winning 6-8 games means playing 12-16. If you use 20 minutes for game that gives 4 to 5.30 hours which is one entire day for a normal player.

Most games 15-20 minutes (game time)

Wich is 10-15 minutes real time.

Assuming 12-16 games played--that's 2-3 hours of real time a week.

One night of games a week equal zero bonus pool.
