Everywhere on this forum, it always seems like you are trying to change 2v2. Complaining about this. Complaining about that.

Let it be man. The rules are the same for everyone.

There is good reason to be frustrated if you're an avid 2v2 player.

i dont doubt that you guys are at ST level in terms of skill. but maybe there really is something wrong with the system cause it seems like its very hard to get into ST

I dont know, cause it occured about a day or two after our last finished game against Alex and Josue, I dont think that glitch even occured back then. And if it did, because it was onealexleft of all people, it wouldve been fixed right away, I dont think it was that anyway cause the glitch went on for several days, the turn glitch only lasts around a day.

This isn't how being a supertitan works. It's not about just picking the top 10 teams and making them all supertitans. Being a supertitan is about being a level ahead of the rest of the class, and as it is currently only one team has done it. Just because you've beaten all these teams before, presumably they have beaten you also; only one team has managed to beat everyone consistently to earn the title. Honestly, how good would it really feel to become a supertitan just because you complained and were 'awarded' the distinction not based on merit. If you want it, earn it.

Yeah but it's a little weird that only 2 teams fall into this category.

That's because only two teams right now are that good. There's not a set number of supertitans, it's a measure of skill.

That logic doesn't make sense. It goes by hidden skill. Teams at the top cant get better if they're playing against other teams with the same hidden skill.

Actually, they can, if you consistently beat the ones at the top, you can then separate yourself by simultaneously pushing them down and pushing yourself up, as long as you do this consistently then you'll get there, and if you don't, you won't be there.

Maybe I'm not being clear enough. "It goes by hidden skill". Yes, it does. And their "hidden skill" is higher than yours. Why should these other teams be supertitans just because they feel there arent enough of them. If there's a lack of supertitans, its because there's a lack of truly elite 2v2 players, not because of an error with the promotion system.

Im not saying "my" 2v2 team should be ranked as a supertitan. I dont think your logic is right. If everyone's hidden skill is low how do you improve your hidden skill? Doesnt it go up as you beat people, particularly people better than you? If you are in the top 10-20 players there arent to many teams better than you.

What you are missing is the fact that all of the elite players are playing each other. We play all the top masters and one of the super Titan teams. The super Titan team (Gurleyman/Krogoth) is the team we play most. They do have an edge on us but not more than a 60-40 edge. I wouldn't care about super Titan if they would just post the damn top 100 or top 25. I have played around 400 2v2 games. Trust me that I do have an idea of what I'm talking about. If Gurleyman and Krogoth were a cut above, why would we be matched up against them every time? Wouldn't they eventually decide that we aren't on that level?
