League doesn't equal MMR. So I'm okay with the change.

Especially since I know a lot of my friends get really demotivated when they drop a league. This way I find that a master player might find themselves being matched against alot of Diamonds, and find motivation to fix his play, rather then get slapped sticked in the face and shoved into Diamond and told how much of a loser he is by the TL community .

However I do find it funny sometimes. My Gold friend was playing against a really dick diamond player on ladder who called him trash. So my friend pointed out that the he was the Diamond player matched against a Gold. The guy got so pissed he just left the game. Checking his history, he was an EX- Master, who was on like a 20 game losing streak.

Funny thing though, before he left the game his last words were, "Stop wasting better players time you little piece of !@#$". My guess is that his game didn't show my friends league.

The bad thing about this is all the diamonds who cant get promoted cause masters is full...... Thats equally demoralizing if not more than getting demoted!

Isn't the math bell curve?



Also this should stop gm tanking as they could easily set perimeters at the end of each season that automatically sees abnormal loss streaks etc.

Masters can't get full, and that was explained just two posts before yours.

Masters can't be full.

They just made it harder to get in. If you're diamond, you're not diamond because masters is full. You're diamond because you're diamond.
