But that's just a guess, of course, nothing official has come out yet.

First one was 9 months? So probably around that time for each.

Really? Hmmmm.... Thanks man I was just wondering

Wasn't the beta a season in itself? So you can't really count the beta as part of season 1.

Technically yeah, it was all reset when SCII was released. I don't know, just makes more sense in my head for it to be 12 months p/ season, as opposed to 9 or so.

Guess we'll find out sooner or later ^^;

It should be shorter seasons to make people maintain interest in laddering. Then 1 more long season when HOTS comes out.

So I feel that one long season(9months) followed by short seasons (about 4 to 6 months) till the new expansion comes out. This is just my opinion and no means official blizzard news.

season 2 seems tough! no more nice records

KR is currently down, so it will be reset real soon

Wow, congrats dude! Pretty jelly about that :P

Your MMR must've been pretty high, and I believe bnet waits for you to lose a few matches before deciding to promote you. So for example you might go 20-3 and get promoted on your 4th loss. Not sure how to explain that but that's the gist I've gotten from hearing about some people's promotions.

3 months from what i herd if anyone else knows otherwise post.

I was ranked 1 in my bronze division before the ladder-lock. Played a bunch of games whilst it was locked and after 1 placement game got promoted to silver

Same thing happened with my 2v2 team, we were silver - played a fair few games during lock and we lost our placement 2v2 and still got promoted to gold.

I'm hoping that the seasons only last for 3 months, that way there's more incentive to keep laddering and trying to get the best rank you can for every season.
