Season 7 Has Begun

Season 7 Has Begun

The seventh StarCraft II League season has arrived! At this time, Season 6 milestones have been awarded, and bonus pools and standings have been reset. Hidden skill ratings used for matchmaking and league placement have carried over from the previous season, so players who have completed placement matches in a previous season will only need to play one new placement match to kick off the new season.

Don’t forget to review the changes to the official ladder pool for Season 7, as well, and keep in mind that Grandmaster League will start next week.

Good luck, have fun!

make matchmaking back to what it was. I was top8 silver last season, got to gold and now I'm losing about all of my matches. In the end of last season I was matched against some gold players, most of them I won. Nowadays I just can't seem to win at all.

BLIZZARD the new match making system sucks !@#! I 'm in silver leauge i'm in rank 67 and I face $%^-ing platinum and gold player????!!!!!! this suck cause I stand no chance, go back to your old system and stick with it cause you are making the game unplayable, I don't want to face high league players I want to face players that are about as good as I am. and you say it's because you want matches to be easier for some and not so that you always have to play good to win in the close matches, well this is bull*!@#. I realize that this system may match me up with bronze players so that I will have an easy match. I don't want the game to be easy!!! I wan't it to be a challenge, but not challenge as is facing me with platinum players but challenging as in matching me with my equals. If I'm in the top 8 I might want to face gold players so that i can get a promotion, BUT NOT WHEN I'M IN THE TOP HUNDRED!!!!!!!!! I will probably quit playing this game, at least multiplayer cause it's NOT fun anymore, you had an amazing matchmaking system last season why did you have to $%^-ing ruin it???????

I always seem to get pitted against a diamond or platinum player in 1v1 so every season I'm a bronze player at 1v1 :( Just my luck....

I will really not in the mood these seasons. These seasons are absolut total s.t.u.p.i.d. With every season, going lower and lower into the league I really do not have time to play the flop and still lower in the league is really frustrating

@RedBoXXeR: If there shouldent be seasons then all inactive peoples would just pile up to the different ladders.

Like you, you got to be active to be able to have "your spot" on the ladder else it will be given to someone other.
Lol thik what would happen if they shouldent have seasons, same players in grandmaster all time and they would just take a spot when they end up playing..

@Kloper: In your concept a grand master wich is not active it will become a bronze player.
Is he a bronze player?
Lol.
You are so wrong my friend.

WINS + LOSSES BACK + MORE STATS!!! Let's all group together and chant for that, maybe they will finally listen. And understand that seeing no stats COMPLETELY SUCKS. Boo.

Aries is right, win/loss would be much better if you could check a ton of statistics. Like % against each race on each map, average duration etc. The possibility to turn it off (to you and everybody) should keep everybody happy.

Would like to see Win/Lose again.
It would be nice if it will be an option that you can select. So people that dont want to see it dont have to.

win/loss, win % against each race and win/loss on each map etc etc etc etc. For a RTS game there really is a lack of personal data in this game. Makes me wonder if one of blizz high employers created SC2gears lol and dont want to lose the income from it =/

Bring back the win/lose!!!!!!!!!!!! FFSSSSS

3 Months a season would be cool. I want to play every season, but there are times when I must study for tests/exams. And then I dont play for more than a month and the play like up to 20 games a day on weekends, just to use up my bonuspool XD

@MastaKilla: Please nerf Zerg so Protoss dont have to rely on FFE and move out with a bad !@# force going for the throat.

There is a reason most Protoss dont try to go into long long macro games with Zerg and its cause they have such a huge problem dealing with the zerg late game.
