Answer: To keep play at each skill level on the ladder competitive, we no longer demote players in the middle of a season. (Exception: Demotions down from Grand Master league are applied in cases of high bonus pool (inactivity).) Unless you're an inactive Grand Master, you can only be placed into a lower league when you play your initial placement match(es) in a new season, or by leaving the league. ....so um how does that make the ladder more competitive by taking out demotions? :logic: On June 04 2013 12:57 arkedos wrote: And in addition to this, this prevents people from abusing the ladder to bash noobs and stuff. Um no, your mmr isn't locked by any means, it just means you don't go down in the league. | ||

This is a slap in the face to competitive gamers. We want league to mean MORE. Would be nice to have masters broken into 3 leagues as the difference between a 200 pt master and a 1400 pt master is like baking soda and cocaine. Epic fail. | ||

You realise this also means a lot less people get promoted. So if hes in the league below, chances are he won't be moving up for a long time. That is not true, please don't needlessly freak people out. This does not effect promotions at all. Nobody will have a harder time getting promotions after this change. | ||

And then what ? Will there still be something that can distinguish the pro ? Guess not. And we'll get retards to say : "yeah guys, i'm master, i'm the sh.t when it comes to starcraft 2 ! You haven't seen my most famous 6 pool rush" Hope we won't get there though...  | ||
