Another question, do unranked games affect your MMR?
If so... what's stopping me from losing a lot in unranked, in order to face weaker opponents in ranked games?

If so... what's stopping me from losing a lot in unranked, in order to face weaker opponents in ranked games? the way i understood it is you have your ranked MMR, then you decide to play unranked.. and it copies your ranked MMR to your unranked MMR and then continue to work off your unranked MMR. if im wrong please correct me. | ||

This wouldnt make sense as you would need a variable rate based on production (imagine a 150 food player with say 3 factories and 10 barracks... he will need way more than 10 supply overhead vs the early game where 10 supply overhead is the ideal). I am thinking it is % of time not supply blocked and if I am motivated I will test it tonight. | ||

Ah I see thanks. So I better play some ranked game first otherwise my MMR will never be accurate if I understand correctly. This clan thing is good, except there's a huge pop up asking you if you want to join... that can actually happen in-game... if Blizzard doesn't fix this I can see it becoming a popular way to troll pro players who are streaming :p | ||

This is correct as reported by Excalibur_Z (who in turn talks to Blizzard devs). | ||

If so, would I get a beta key if I preordered the Deluxe Edition (Amazon does not offer the Digital Deluxe Edition)? No. | ||

Any ideas of how I can do this? Digital deluxe is only available through battle.net which doesn't come with a beta key. You'll need to pre-order the boxed collectors edition, e.g., from Amazon or Gamestop, to get a beta key. | ||

Would I use Battle.net? I want to try it but I might gave this key to a friend of mine since I already have beta. Not familiar with how the GameStop key works. But you can try through battle.net (and yes, if you're giving it away, you ought to let him do it): https://us.battle.net/account/management/claim-code.html | ||

I'll just wait the entire day before checking my email again. It's supposed to arrive today. How long has it been taking people? Where did you order from? I ordered from amazon (via TL link) and it has been 2 days and they didn't email me yet. | ||
