I've got the same problem for whatever reason. Displayed MMR is 16.

Does it exactly take 25 games to make your MMR non-provisional? Or is it based on the MMR uncertainty and 25 is just an approximation?

The technology just isn't there yet.

We're talking about Blizzard entertainment here. As someone who designs software, you'd think they'd have a bunch of end users involved closely in the development process to ensure stuff like this doesn't happen, but... agile techniques haven't exactly made their way to Blizzard.

Because the right people just aren't there yet.


Yea, I don't see why I can't simply go to my last match and click on the ladder/experience button. Maybe because then you'd be able to go into other profiles' last matches to see their MMR, thus infringing on privacy? What's the worse that could happen... someone teasing me about my low MMR? Have we gotten that soft ffs.

since patch 3.4 lib circles are really hard to see I hope they investigate this issue

According to http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/18792768/starcraft-ii-ladder-update-april-27-2015-4-27-2015 under "New Player" Logic, it's "around" 25 games. 25 may be an upper limit (and this is consistent with when skeldark and Not_That would see league changes in the old MMR-Stats tool) or it may be enforced. Some players have reported that they've been promoted earlier, but they haven't clearly stated whether they had 25 recent career ranked games (say, 15 last season and 10 this season would still be enough to break out of provisional status).

Since this new ladder change, almost all my wins give me less than 10 points (against equal MMR) and I lose tons (-20), so I'm stuck at 13 points with a 13-8 winrate. My MMR should be closer to Master 2 (4800), but I'm stuck at super low Masters 3. What is this all about?

i just got promoted from diamond 3 to diamond 2

i guess promotions and demotions between tiers will be very fluid. gives me more a sense of progress than i had before.

Hmmm Blizzard has money for fancy new ladders. Maybe they will have some money for fancy new ways to stop the hacks.

hacking on an RTS can't be stopped.

sorry if it has been answered already, but why on some players' profiles I can see their full MMR, means 4 digit number, like 5125 or whatever

but on some other's (including my own profile!) I can only see 2 digit MMR, like 32 or 16? can I somewhat calculate full 4-digit MMR when given only this 2 digit one?
Right now I cannot even compare my own MMR to others, is it a bug that Blizzard is aware of?

Thanks in advance.

Yes it's a display bug that goes away when that profile plays another game.

Huh, it seems you can be promoted even if your bar is not full...
I played 3 games.
After i won my first i was put int dia 3 with bar full, and just at the edge of the MMR limit
Second match i lost, dropped my bar off some.
Thrid match i won, and bam, promotion!

Maybe you don't need to win 2 times in a row to be promoted... The game just checks your MMR?
