NA vs SEA Skill Levels

Just keen to know how everyone fares on the two different servers? Im fairly bad at starcraft and Gold 1v1 in SEA but Plat 1v1 on NA, then my highest team on SEA is Platinum but on NA i just got promoted to Masters 3v3.

Its seems a whole lot easier over there if you can put up with all the extra BM, anyone else notice this?

AFAIK Sea leagues are equivelant to one league higher on NA. Gold -> Plat, Plat -> Dia,
Dia -> low master.

It stops once you get to mid master which is about even. Mid GM on SEA is equivelant to high masters on NA though.

This is based off personal experience as I laddered through both around about the same time and hearing other people say similiar things.

Doesn't make me angry, just depressed why people so angry on NA?

MMR usually gets you opponents of the same level. I've noticed on NA the matchups are really extreme though, Like i'll either play someone really bad or really gosu, but that might be timezone related where im playing sleep deprived nerds sometimes My record for w/l and points are pretty much the same between servers so grats to blizzard there.

yeah I always thought in films where they give wedgies to the nerds and beat them up was exaggerated but with the bitter, sad and angry attitudes coming out of alot of NA sc2 players i almost believe it :P

Either they are passing on the abuse they recieved in their culture, or they genuinely think its funny to abuse people over the internet >.<

Yeah and its not just some randoms who bm. Even the very well known gamers who are actually pretty good still bms very hard

The BM thing is so true.. Imo they should create an achievment for 'streaks of not getting BM'ed' starting from 3 games, 5 games then 10.. I wouldn't get any of them

I beat a toss and marine and marauders are 'free'
I beat a zerg and well.. 3-3 marines are apparently OP against 0-0 zerglings
I beat a terran and well.. Terran is OP apparently with 100% w/l in TvT

I don't go on NA much because of the wedgie factor, it's hard explaining to my mom why I need new briefs every week.

I found i wasn't ready for the amount of aggression they are able to put on you... all the time. lol. but that having been said there are a lot of one trick ponys who have mastered one build or timing push :/

I always get surprised when someone's really BM on SEA, it doesn't happen very often

Similar to everyone else, i am 1 rank higher on NA than i am on SEA. gold on SEA and Plat on NA. And you really notice the difference in skill levels of the players. i find that the plats on sea (well the ones i am gettin put up against) would tear through the plats from NA.

But we must be careful to not generalise all of the NA players and SEA players with a single generalisation - But have we found anyone (below masters) who is higher on SEA than they are on NA with a significant number of games played on both?

I was gold on the KR server as welld uring my free trial. i saw more new builds and weird pushes than i have in the last 20 hours playing on SEA or NA. just madness agression.

Yeah same for me and most of my team. I am on NA and on SEA. I made playing as random too on NA originally, although that was because I hardly got any games spawned as , which I am awful at lol.

yeah i agree this is a trend im finiding happening more and more, 1v1 SEA bronze 1v1 NA Gold 2v2 SEA bronze 2v2 NA silver 3v3 SEA Plat (Random and insuregence carried me ) also bronze here with some mates 3v3 NA Plat, its crazy! i dont under stand why this is but it is i think because ther are more players on the server the matchmaking system can get ppl more suited to your skill but that still. doesnt explain y i am such high levels compared to SEA on NA.
