Maybe they removed the ladder locking or forgot about it? Maybe it should have been done automatically with the new patch but was bugged? Or it's just misinformation?

I think if it was misinformation then blizzard would have posted about it already. Or maybe they don't know about it? Please someone post this on the battle.net forums so they'll give us information.

They probably just forgot about it.. The guy who handles this should be fired imo, they've messed up a lot regarding this.

I don't think they would just, "Opps! Forgot!" ... but who knows. With people being promoted apparently and people reporting bonus pool accumulating (I haven't been able to log on since before the weekend so I'm not sure) it makes me think it is not locked right now, even though it should be? I guess?

Yeah this doesn't make sense.

Also, since it's not locked and since I've been winning 60-75% of my matches I hope to get promoted from Bronze league soon, otherwise I'm gonna rage

Maybe no lock this season? Would be a nice change of pace, never understood why it locks in the first place.

I think the point is to provide stability to the division rankings, so that you can be sure of improving your division ranking without players appearing on top of you out of nowhere.

But it's legitimate to wonder if that matters

I hope they just delayed the lock to finally fix their fucking 1.5 lag issues ...

I have to know the end bonus pool in master for each server when its locked!

Can you please post it here when you are sure that the league is final locked?

Can it be that you still get bonus but you cant use it? is there someone with 0 bonus in masters at the moment?

Please mods, let this thread this time open!
Its important when the league is locked for me, not when blizzard announce that its locked!

Gold = silver - platinum
Master = diamond - master

If your mmr is in real low dia and his in real high plat, its possible to play against each other, even if its not locked.
Very very unlikely but possible!

I played vs a GM and I'm Plat. lost pretty badly (although I got a +0). I think it's possible to play vs any league even if it's locked, It's just impossible to get promoted/demoted.

Well if he is on NA last week would be irreverent as the ladder (apparently) locked on the 25th according to in game and that was Saturday.

I don't understand this. Damn Blizzard and the lack of transparency into promotions and MMR. I was playing vs top 8 masters 1400+ points with no promotion so I assumed ladder was locked and stopped playing. If this wasn't the case, I'll be mildly dissapointed.

Maybe the Season lock starts on 01/09? With the new season to start a week after that?

If so, it's a change from past practice which had lock week in the last week of the season.

Damn, I have not played in a few days but had used up my SEA bonus pool, with only my NA account pool left to use.

So, why did you blank your name out? Im curious its not like anyone here really cares about your screen name -_-


I ... do... "puts penis away because name isn't there"


This got me good for some reason lol.

OT: I've played two platinum players in the past few days, and I'm mid-high masters. I assume they are new accounts or something and can't rank up because of a possible lock?

He is on NA, but I was just responding to one of the several people who assumed that the ladder had already been locked for over a week because they hadn't been promoted. That's good to know though

I can confirm European servers are stated to be locked on 25th, but I gathered bonus pool a few hours ago, so as it stands I'd assume they're not locked.
