In all seriousness, this confused the crap out of me the first time i faced someone who had GM in WoL. It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure that SC2 postgame score showed him as masters, but my SC2gears showed him as GM, so good change! =p | ||

And why is that an issue? Honestly I feel blizzard is doing nothing but shunning those who still have WOL and have not moved onto HOTS. At the very least they could of found some way to make a distinction between HOTS GM and WOL GM instead of just scrapping the whole league. Rather pathetic move. | ||

Stupid and waste of time change, should be focused on something important? turning gm off need some mouse clicks, why is it waste of time ? making it show highest league for each ones is much more complex and tons of time lmao | ||

Unless they changed Wol GM to "semi-grandmasters" or something. All the pros are in hots so Wol GM has lost a lot of prestige. Making masters can still be considered a great accomplishment though. Just look at sc2ranks.com to see if you're in the top 200. | ||

What a bunch of ass hats … ._. the game died on HotS release day. How are they asshats for discontinuing something that is not necessary to keep up with? tbh, it kind of annoyed me to see that people still went into tryhard mode and got gm on WoL JUST to look like they're good. | ||
