I mean, I like everything but the unranked matchmaking thing. I have worked hard to get to where im at now. It would be disappointing to see that none of that matters because a few people hate losing on ladder and seeing their rank go down.

This is the greatest thing I've heard in weeks. It's been awhile since Blizz has released some news that has made me this cheery.

It's unranked matchmaking in addition to ranked ladder play. You aren't losing anything...

I think that unranked match-making will be a boon for the peeps who have ladder anxiety.

Essentially, this is all the stuff we've been asking for.



No it isn't and player base will still go down regardless due to turnover after they've had their fill.

No worries, everything indicates that unranked matchmaking will be optional, and that ranked MM will still be there. The unranked MM will simply give you opponents around your skill level based on your ranked MMR.

Exactly. It will keep the ladder filled with people who care about the ladder and their rank. That sounds great to me.

However, the number of casual ladderers who will switch over to unranked matchmaking only will likely cause the overall skill level in each division to raise (because only the more hardcore players will still ladder) resulting in low diamonds becoming high plats, high plats becoming low plats, etc.

I suppose it'll make master's mean that much more.

I hope the resume from replay and multiplayer replay viewing features will be out in time for PL playoffs, at least.

It's hard to believe that they release all the stuff with HOTS but I hope it's true

"things we are working on this year.." ok it won't be before winter


Winter what year? I'd say anyone hoping on a 2012 HOTS release is being a bigger optimist then is healthy.


nvm, I thought HOTS beta will start after anaheim but I missread something so probably no release this year :/

Most likely, unranked match players will still be playing against regular ladder players.

Son of a fucking bitch.

Now hopefully Blizz keeps up with their end of the deal, lol. Judging by features in WoW expansion we won't get half this shit for years.


They are saving you money. Do you really think you only needed to buy one copy of hots to upgrade every single one of those accounts? Think again :p

Exactly how specifically have you worked harder improving your game on ladder compared to those that will do unranked ladder?
