Without me my division would be absolutely dead... although seems like I can't carry my division =/
It is a little annoying that I need so many more points to get a higher rank... but I feel glad, and sympathize with the top tier players who just can't get any more points. If the ladder gets reset and MMR remains, how on earth are players like Azz going to earn any points?
Well, to be fair, the extra points you need to be of the same rank as an A-div player are exactly the same as the extra points you got when you were placed in diamond. It's just a pain in the ass when you look at the whole thing a few months later. However, because the divisions are sorted so that whoever plays the most games should end up on top, it makes sense that you're miles ahead of the rest
Edge, from what I recall, having a high MMR means you'll end up getting more +20s after matches early on because of how MMR vs displayed rating is compared to determine your score, or something. I really can't remember either.
