Starcraft 2 MASTER league here I come??
(By the way I wanted to mention, in the picture above, the guy ahead of me named "HuK" who is a famous player but not really because he is an imitation, is hacking or something because in every one of his games he gathers 0 resources, makes 0 army units and manages to win somehow.. As you can see he has 2000 some points, and is the 2nd highest ranked diamond player in north america. He has won 56 or so matches in a row, something that is unheard of in starcraft 2.)
Only two days left until the ladder resets! All I can say is I can't wait to find out if I made it into master league yet! The ladder has been locked for a while, so you can't get promoted to a higher league.
There are 7 starcraft 2 leagues: Bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, master, and grandmaster. Only the top 2% of players will be promoted to Master league. The problem is in order to get promoted to master league, you have to be better than (have a higher MMR than) 50% of master league players. Right now when I hit the search button for a quickmatch in the ladder, I sometimes go up against masters players. Other times I will get high ranked diamond players. Technically the high ranked diamond players are better than the lower end of the master league, so that means I'm getting close.
Wish me luck!
Here is a bonus screenshot of me winning a free for all against 7 AI. I hope to show it more in a later post. It sounds easy but its pretty difficult because the AI cheat by gaining extra resources. And they always want to attack me with maxed armies of ultralisks, banelings and hydras, which were melted by my tanks and thors. You get an achievement for winning this. I already had the achievement I just felt like doing it again for some reason. =D
Okay I couldn't resist so I took some more screenshots of me demolishing 7 zergs with my crazy mech army:
All this reminds me of Starcraft 1 where I used to do 1v7AI. Not free for all, all vs me. It was very difficult but possible. Ah how I love starcraft 2.

ReplyDeleteI'll be keeping my eyes peeled here, as I love all things Starcraft, though sadly, I'm horrendous at the game.
