Still gold for me
Apparently losing to mass 2/2 marines vs your 3/3 ling/bane doesn't get you promoted into platinum.

Anyone that is disappointed, cheer up. Placements don't actually matter.

Your MMR is what matters, what is MMR? It's your "match-making rating". You need to keep winning against people higher than you consistently to get promoted. Winning / losing this placement actually does nothing other than add / subtract to your MMR. It's not any more important or worth more than ANY other ladder game other than the fact it unlocks the ladder for the new season for you.

I understand this is common knowledge for most people, but I feel this post is necessary due to unhappy / rage people I have had the pleasure of listening to today

Maynarde's message; chill people. Placement doesn't matter. Happy laddering.

I'll be back to edit this post when I don't get promoted so that I can rage and joke about suicide, of course.

[|Erasmus|]

That is all valid and reasonable maynarde. Only point is that ladder has been locked and some people feel like they have improved their MMR sufficiently in that week (see, Spoon's example). It's just that the week where they -know- they can't be promoted despite a good performance leads to an increase in that expectation, and hence the disappointment when that magical placement game comes along.

In any case, if you keep winning like that spoon, promotion will be really soon...

[Loach]

got a promo! i was in plat. and versing master leaguers.. LOST my placement.. and got placed in diamond.. :P

[inFeZa]

Ill probably get demoted, Losing streak near the end FTL, plus im more adamant on playing KR.
