I hope they dont have the same GM issues for a third time in a row. Also I hope they add some new maps, I think metropolis, daybreak or ESV Cloud Kingdom would be cool to see.


I'd LOVE to see Cloud Kingdom in the ladder pool, that would be sick. soo sick. :D

this

also would love to see gold mineral patches removed, along with XNC

Hmm hasn't it always been the case that even with leagues locked, you can still get kicked out of GM for having over 180 bonus pool? I'm asking cause Drewbie has 185 right now in GM. Also because if I don't have to keep my bonus down to stay in GM... then lol why not I guess.

But normally, players will try to get their pool below 180 before the lock even comes into effect cuz before that time, having more than 180 will get you kicked. So normally, you can't get more than 180 in the post season anyway without being kicked beforehand for having 180, right?

Looks like everyone in gm is getting bonus pool accumulation still

For gods sakes, please fix the maps. Get rid of Arid and Entombed for sure, to be honest I'd be ecstatic if they just threw the entire thing in the trash and switched to gomtv maps exclusively.

Has that usually been the case, that GM bonus pool keeps accumulating?

haha, as would the vast majority of people that visit this site. But don't hold your breath lol. most likely, we'll see 2 new blizzard maps to replace current blizzard maps (my guess is they'll remove arid and XNC, replacing them with 2 new blizzard maps).

of course all the fan boys flame blizzard for not including every GSL map ever made so they can pretend to be pro. I think Blizzard has done a decent job with maps this season. Arid Plateau is not great but it's not Slag Pits. XNC, Metal, and Shattered Temple are showing their age and are due for a replacement but aren't BAD maps

Yes. It seems to be a display bug. Also EU server suffers from it. The max bonus pools seem to be the same as in the end of season 4: 630 for masters+ and 365 for diamond-.

I really wish blizz would have called the new season match something other than a placement match. The important number (your MMR) carries over from season to season so that 'placement' match you play at the start of a new season carries exactly the same weight as a normal everyday ladder game. It's a game to make sure you are still an active player and deserve to be placed into the ladder not a traditional placement match like you played when you first got the game and your MMR was 0.
It's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback.

Yeah I have this bug too, It says I have 4 bonus pool left but I've won a bunch of games. Also my pool appeared to go up from 3 to 4. (Which is weird because the ladder is locked right?)

Season 5 coming to an end
This post on the EU website says that Season 6 starts the week beginning 20th of February, it seems wrong but does anyone have any confirmation? That would make the ladder lock 2 weeks long.

Why is there so much hate for Entombed. It's a good map. If it would've been GSL Entombed valley everybody would think it's the greatest map on earth. It seems everything blizzard touches is being hated.

Well Blizzard said that it would be only one week long (see OP)... and Blizzard's the boss.

Also, it's always been a one week ladder-lock before the reset, right? Not sure why they would change it now.

EDIT: Oh your site is Blizzard too. Is EU different than NA?

Normally we get the same timings as NA except we're one day behind, which is why I'm confused.

For the past few seasons the lock has been one week but I think it was 2 weeks for the first few seasons. I'd be surprised if they went back though with the season being only 2 months long so I think it's a mistake.

The original US server news post said that US server would be locked Feb 14th and new season start week of 20th. It was then fixed by Blizzard to 7th and 14th. Also the news post for EU server originally had 15th & 20th.... But it seems they fixed only the first date from that post. So expect new season for EU server next week too.

Did anyone catch Rob Simpson giving hints during IEM sao Paulo about user maps being in the map pool? He was talking to Mr. Bitter durin G3 Illusion vs Killer, and they were talking about user created maps. Simpson said something to the effect of "well good things are coming soon to the ladder"
