It uses the same MMR system WoL uses so no, its not inaccurate depiction of skill level.


You obviously cannot read. Not all players get to play HOTS. Most of the players invited are the higher leagues. Do you really think they invited all the average noob players? No they didn't

Most of the players on HOTS are better players who are familiar to the game, unless you got invited to it via pre order.

So you cannot say that the ranking system is accurate, because the game is not in full swing.

The ranking system, other than GM and Masters is highly messed up

The ranking system is accurate due to the leagues being based on % of players. Just because they are low masters in WoL where there are people in bronze who still dont know how to make probes doesn't mean they deserve masters, it means they are better / earned more points then people below them. if you are in a certain percentile in HotS beta you deserve to be there, thats how blizz mmr / league standings works.

You're missing the point here.
The rankings are screwed up because of the amount of people that are playing.
With most of the players being gold up , not everyone can be ranked that, so it adjusts to make the leagues by which they werent in WoL.

For sure Master is way above...

What i was tryin to say is that high lvl player dont play in low leagues anymore and don't recognized how they all have grettin better.

For sure this happend the same way in Masters League. Its always just small mistakes that make you loose a game. And they keep on gettin smaller....

Thats what happens when ppl improve

judy is right, I often come to realize, that gold leauge players can manage stuff nowadays that gold leauge players couldn't back then, and that is the average, nothing special.
Everyone is just getting better at the game
