My goal this season was to be in the top 100 GM, currently I'm at like 130. I better start playing more!!

P.S. For next season, here is to hoping people don't take up more than 1 GM spot with multiple accounts.

I haven't..
But i'm not at a level where it makes a difference.

I think ladder season length is all right. Probably I'll be gold nex season, because I'm playing against high gold.
I think this is a pretty decent indicator of where you stand. (Correct me if I'm wrong; 25ish games played: 350 points, promoted to gold this season).

Oh, and about maps: the more macro the better :D

Hopefully there'll be some new maps. That's more fun to look forward to than ladder promotions.

I would love to see them double the size of the map pool (and double the number of vetoes maybe).

The community wanted shorter seasons 2 seasons ago, but people like to complain. Nothing will ever be good enough. If you don't like 2 month seasons then that's fine but it isn't Blizzards fault.

I doubt they will reverse their decision anyway because they told us that more people play at the start of a season than at the end and more people playing is better financially for them.

Or maybe people complained back then because 6 months/season is really long and now because 2 months/season is really short. If only there was a number between 6 and 2, then our problems would be solved..


http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Battle.net_Leagues#Seasons_and_Winners

Assuming this page is accurate;

S1 ~ 9 months
S2 ~ 4 months
S3 ~ 3 months
S4 ~ 2 months
S5 ~ 2 months

It seems to me like they've tried 3 and 4 month seasons and prefer 2.

I predict no new maps. They're too busy working on HotS right now.

1400 for GM... I'm closer than I thought. TBH I've been totally satisfied with the map pool this season, with the single exception of pvp tal'darim. Can't they just make no changes to the map and add a high ground 1 hex ramp to the main? This wouldn't really affect the other matchups that dramatically...
Our Protoss, Who art in Aiur HongUn be Thy name; Thy stalker come, Thy will be blunk, on ladder as it is in Micro Tourny. Give us this win in our daily ladder, and forgive us our cheeses, As we forgive those who play zerg against us.

either that or they are just incompetent


I have an idea, let's all bitch and moan all day every day... But then still play the game... If you don't like it, don't play.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

"Looks"? How can you see the MMR?


Can't see MMR, but the thresholds that define the leagues as illustrated by points in Blizzard's table are the same as last season. Therefore, the MMR boundaries must also be the same as last season.

Wow. It seems like the season just started. o.O

Man, I wish the season were slightly longer, maybe 3 months though I would prefer 4 months.

I miss those 3 months seasons Also S2 itself was also 3 months, they just had like a 3-4 week season lock at the end of it for some stupid reason.

I know I played about 50 games this season, if the maps would have been not trash I might have played like 150-200. How many more people would have done that also?

Just because we play a game does not mean we can bitch and moan about horrible maps.
