scsz is currently the highest rated player in the US with a rating of 2432. I've been tracking him for a little over a week, wondering when they'll put him in the platinum league.

A quick look at his last 5 games reveals he's beaten top level platinums lately such as TeamEG (rank 1 platinum division 7), iamkhufu (rank 6 platinum division 4), tatazusfk (rank 4 platinum division 11), and Xiphius (rank 3 division 11).

Anyone have any scsz reps?

How are the points awarded? If he's still unfavored do to his position in silver and getting 20-30 points per game, well, that's retarded.

also if hes advancing in leagues he will lose alot of hes points when hes promoting ... its like blizzard making adjusments .. so this high score in silver wont be equal with 1800 in gold or so ... so wait till he gets to platinum to he hes score and stop be enthusiastic about silver divisions guys!!!! kk thx

Are ratings equivalent across plat/gold/silver/etc? Is 2400 in silver equivalent to 2400 in gold/plat? I kinda doubt it

The ELO rating is effected by league. When someone goes up a league their rating goes down meaning that 2400 silver does not equal 2400 platinum. While this doesn't mean this guy isn't good, I think its wrong to call him the highest rated player.
Opportunities multiply as they are seized.

He'll actually be favored vs gold/platinum guys. Same thing happened to me except I was in bronze, and I was favored vs some gold/plats, so no, he won't be getting 20-30 points per game

no, ratings between leagues are not the same, considering his win/loss ratio he will get bashed pretty fast once he reaches gold/platinum, if he barely maintains a 50 win ratio in silver he wont really stand a chance in the higher leagues.

Your division doesn't totally determine the division of the players you play.

strange, i feel like beating people like that he would have been placed in gold or plat from the beginning. i assume this account is being shared by 2 or more people which is throwing off the accounts player statistics.

The rough impression I've gotten from playing is that each league up is a 200-250 point difference. So he's roughly as skilled as a platinum ranked 1932-2032. Not the highest rated, but certainly among the top players. Very odd that he's still in silver.

I've played him twice (I'm middling platinum right now, don't have a ton of ladder games played). Both TvT, I won the first and lost the second. I think he's chinese - occasionally my name elicits a ni hao and such, heh.

First game he went 2rax and immediately expanded when I held it with a bunker. I then rolled him over with marine/tank.

Second game was on blistering sands and he siege rushed, broke down the rocks near my base before I put a supply there to scout it, and got in right before my siege finished and won.

Neither was a particularly good game, honestly, so I can't really judge.
Oh, my eSports
