You know you already have 8 different MMRs?

Ranked and unranked, multiple it to each region. Two for Europe, two for Korea, two for US and two for NA.


Yes, forcing me to switch modes and / or change region to play with an offrace.

In my opinion, there should be 9 MMRs, one per matchup per account. They shouldn't be totally independent from each other, because most casual players will never play enough games in a specific matchup to gauge their skill, but they should be separate.

Is it that hard to click on Menu and click on s small Globe icon and/or click on unranked button near the ranked one?

Nope, is it that hard to implement seperate MMRs? Besides, the solution of changing region might work for me, but there are people for which the solution does not work, depending on which time zone they live in, at what time they can play and how much lag they have to the other alien servers.

Besides, if there is something like levels and achievement, I'd like to have them on a single account. Yes, I am that shallow of a person.

Implementing separate MMRs might be hard, yes. They would completely have to change how promotions and rankings work, since they are now based on a summary of all your matchups.

Can't they just rank MMR based on your arithmetic middle for example? Or maybe there are more sophisticated methods, but you just need to settle on one.

No, not really. It would be quite simple actually. From a programming stand-point, it'd be essentially the exact same concept of unranked vs. ranked mmr, but with promotions enabled. Very simple.

Of course, the UI part of it would be more complicated, as screens would have to change to display separate ladders/rankings and statistics, etc. IMO I think unranked is enough to play around with other races, but I really would love to see 4 different MMRs (don't forget random ), would be super cool to see a profile layout with 3 leagues

am i the only one who is getting a bit annoyed with the theme starcraft is taking. Carbot it excellent, but im getting fed up of it all over my serious RTS strategy its changing the viial identity of sc2(possibly the reason this style of cute animation works with such a produce as it is its polar opposite). Please. Can we stop it now? Thinking about it, maybe this is intentional to bring the game to look like its for 11 - 14 year olds
