Well, if you're being really precise you could even point out that Masters and Diamond combined are now smaller than Masters was back then so being Top Platinum right now is the same as being low Masters a few months ago. | ||

It's just a different distribution which requires a different interpretation of what we consider being of this or this level (if league ever represented that correctly). | ||

I always thought ppl cared too much about the ladder ranking. Those countless times, when ppl claimed they were masters material or their opponent being just a platinum scrub. It's just a batch saying you are part of a certain percentage of players. There are no entry requirements for a league yet I really feel a lot of ppl think differntly  | ||

Even go get out of bronze, you need to win games, but against who? There are not many noobs left now but plenty of decayed silver/gold/plat players. | ||
