Question for those who 5-0'd Placements - CombatEX - 07-09-2012 09:30 AM
What leagues were your opponents and what did you place in?
Is 5-0 guaranteed Masters or has anyone placed lower depending on their opponents?

5-0 and I also think 4-1 qualify for Master League.
Yet.

I went 4-1 into gifted. It may be that I started too many games before any were finished so my MMR (?) was picking low opponents.

Same as above. However I was quickly boosted to masters and immediately in the top 30. So not quite sure how ranking works of yet. Anyone else know specifics? Does going first factor in?

hm ok. Thanks for the info everyone. I've won 2 games and am pretty sure I'll win at least 2 if not all 3 of the others (based on how the games are progressing so far). I just don't want to go 5-0 and place Gifted =P But oh well, I guess even if that happens I'll get promoted soon enough if I really deserve to be in Masters anyway.
And yea, I'm worried about my MMR picking low opponents since I started all my games at pretty much the same time so I'm playing all unranked people...

What is MMR?

I too went 4-1 into Gifted, then quickly promoted to Masters on my 7th game. Weird thing was, I lost the game that got me promoted. Would be nice to know how the ranking and matching system works behind the scenes.
EDIT: lost to a Gifted, not Clever player

I went 4-1 and was placed in Clever. I won my next one and was promoted to Gifted.

4-1 and gifted. The order in which you win lose might also have an effect on placing (see the stickied topic by Alex). I won my first four games and lost my fifth. Could be wrong though.
