Can you not read? That chart was a guide to show people how to be promoted. And that guide is now obsolete.

You are wrong. You are making a fool of yourself.

theres a guide to getting out of gold

should read

It isn't obsolete because the way to get promoted hasn't changed you pleb.

It was a chart showing people the expected number of ladder points earned when a player has advanced to the next Elo bracket. The two ARE correlated. Note how the thread specifically says ALMOST, and not DOES. If the leagues were based on ladder points, Blizzard could make a promise. But it's not. It's based on Elo (well, MMR, which is a variant of the Elo system. Just to cut off your next attempt at a bullshit technicality before it happens).

But by all means, continue to be obnoxiously wrong in the face of people who know better than you. Heck, if you have all the answers, why did you ask this question in the first place?

Gosh, it's almost like he asked for information from those more knowledgeable about a topic than he is, then he got that information and chose to reject it.

Happens a lot round these parts.

I asked for correct information, but that is obviously not going to be obtained by this thread. But thanks for the help guys.

We have given you the correct information.
