If you play on more than one ID, that should give you a good idea about the variance. On one ID I'm 24-2 2100, on another I'm 42-25 2100. 42-25 stats is probably a lot more accurate given my current skill level | ||

Did I suddenly become A- skill over two-three months? nope But the SCR ranking system sure gives us room to believe our talent magically surfaced! Iccup I was glued to D+ (terran) for I'd say years! Couldnt stabilize in C- until I actually decided to improve, and started being serious about build orders etc, and then could reach C after a relatively short time. (weeks?) I think noticable improvement is a direct result of focusing on improvement. So if you didn't focus, you likely didn't improve. On September 26 2017 06:32 skindzer wrote: For the sake of it.. I was D+ / C- on Iccup and im hovering between 1600-1700. Like someone said before, if I lose too much in a row I end up playing against 80+/- apm players at like 1600 mmr. If I win too much I end up getting obliterated at 1700 mmr. Same here, I'm probably now around low C- or high D+ level, and varying between 1600-1800. It'd be cool to see letter ranks again in SCR. | ||

Go back on iCCup and see if anyone's still there to play against; you'll get it eventually. I was 233-350 C on iccup. Next season 158-241 C. Next season 108-158 C. Last season on iccup I was 22-22 D+. I'm not playing 1000 games to fail to get A- just to prove your point. | ||

You only need a 50% winrate against C players without even playing MotW. C- and C+ don't mean anything; it's all the same C rank. Anyway, it's not worth arguing over a 100 MMR difference. I didn't say it was perfectly accurate... That is how iCCup ranks work now though, if you just look at the points chart. | ||

Those, more often than not, at least had a general correlation with skill. Or Fish ranks work too. | ||

I was a D player on Iccup before.... but now I'm in the asia and korean server at 1400 MMR, I'm still against people who know what they're doing and got 300 apm mid-late game.... Well... looks like i'm gonna sink deeper unless I get on par with them koreans... | ||

Or Fish ranks work too. agree with this. when people talk about iccup ranks they're probably referring to the old system. the inflated one that came out in 2015 is quite the monstrosity lol. | ||

You don't get to play vs. all C rank players. You play a D+ guy and it turns out he's Dandy's smurf or something. You just don't get 50% win rate when playing against C rank players because some of those C rank players are actually olympic - they are just starting a new account. Maybe it's different now that RM is out, but I've never had a positive win rate at C rank. | ||

Or Fish ranks work too. We shouldn't even be talking about ICCup at all. It's really just a meme and has been an absolute joke for years. If you're trying to use a ranking system from 5+ years ago to relate to players today, you're automatically doing something wrong as well. Fish ranks are maybe more accurate and could potentially be used. As shitty and buggy as the new MMR system is, it's probably the best indicator for skill and you should just take the number at face value for what it is. On every ladder people are going to game the system to try and min-max their point ranking. SC:R ladder is hardest to do that on. | ||

Anything is possible on ICCup. The ladder is trash and doesn't mean anything. It meant little before the point system rework but it was like, even more meaningless after. | ||
