That was really fast. Also, I've stopped caring about promotion and focused on getting better.

can anybody explain how is GM broken?)

shitty players just got in GM b/c they cheesed in every single game and their winrates is higher than the real GM players. That's my guess.


inactive players with high mmr get placed after one game while active players with slightly lower mmr aren't placed in GM

They speculated that when a player becomes inactive during the middle of a season, he's less likely to come back because his bonus pool accummulated too much to let him catch up to the rest of his division.


that doesn't make any sense an accumulated pool would make it much easier for a player to catch up to others on the ladder!

I would love if the could implement different maps for different leagues, small and easy for bronze, and the a little bigger and more complicated for each league you go up, (with sufficiant overlap of course) that way everybody would be happy :D

I didn't like overly long seasons, but these season are just TOO short. Something in the middle would be more appropriate and I believe most of the community would agree, but Blizzard probably won't listen.

Speaking of the map pool, is Xel Naga Caverns going be gone? Hopefully. Along with Arid Plateau. And I agree that the seasons are way too short now. I'd like to see 4 month seasons.

This season has been a real eye opener for me, instead of trying to play perfect all the time, I just though...what the heck, and just played risky, and straight up and I have come on leaps and bounds, got a promotion and now topping the new league.
Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

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.


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.


You payed for the game, no? Then Blizzard gets paid regardless, I'm sorry you don't like the maps but there are plenty of user made maps that are amazing that you can play custom games if you don't like the ladder maps.


Actually due to the horrible popularity system playing said maps is borderline impossible.

Also you missed the point. Blizzard (and companies like Blizzard) like be be able to make statements like "over 20 million games were played on Battle.net last month!" (or w/e, random number) and that number could be higher.


They could fix the popularity system to cater for user made maps (GSL maps) and league balance, so make it that you join a game with a player from your league, otherwise it puts you in empty map lobby until someone from your league joins. They wouldn't do that though because they want people to ladder and play their shitty map pool.

XelNaga is a great map...

dang the seasons feel too short, althought new maps are a good incentive to not whine about short seasons. hopefully if we rotate the maps quick enough they will run out of shitty blizz maps to use and they will have to turn to community maps :D

you guys ready for another season of a broken GM leauge?
Ya? Well ill BM you harder! Another win in 10 seconds flat! -Rainbow Dash playing SC2.

Of course I go on a major losing streak right at the end of the season. ~

Here is to hoping I can get +700 points in 2 weeks!

I'm getting a bit tired of playing on shattered temple or Xen'naga cavern.

Hopefully they realize that Gomtv makes all the decent maps, and just replace their entire map pool with those.


You never took a look at the Tl map contest / the various Map of the month tournaments did you ? I suggest that you do, because gom isn't the only source of good maps out here.

Kind of disappointed with the league locks happening so quickly.
Nothing worse than being stuck on the top of your league, about to get promoted when BAM! suddenly you're stuck in that league for another 2 weeks.

Good maybe now i'll get off my ass about race switching and stop playing LoL and start practicing protoss, i couldnt be bothered using teamgames to learn all my hotkeys, playing againsnt noobs learning hotkeys too is the way to go !

Platinum terran R.I.P

BRONZE PROTOSS FTW!

For clarification, getting my ass owned by plat players while playing protoss would have made me rage and just play terran to beast mode them :-D I dont use Grid so the hotkey setups arent similar
