    Hero League Placement - Season 2

    With the new season starting today/tomorrow, I was thinking it would be great to continue with the placement stats. This way people can track their progress across multiple seasons to (hopefully!) see how they improve.

    Placed Season 1 Rank:
    Highest Season 1 Rank:
    Last Season 1 Rank:

    Rank After Season 2 Placement:
    Placement Win/Loss (eg 6-4):


    Previous threads:
    Season 1

    That blows. Legion launch only claimed my graphics card, that was relatively easy to replace.

    Well, this is more about the placement matches themselves, seeing as they're doing another reset of uncertainty.

    Placed Season 1 Rank: Gold 4 (4-6)
    Highest Season 1 Rank: Gold 1
    Last Season 1 Rank: Gold 4
    Season 1 HL Wins - Losses: 237-249
    Season 1 HL Most Wins as: Li-Li 100
    Season 1 HL Most Deaths as: Li-Li 576
    Season 1 HL Most Kills as: Li-Li 366
    Season 1 HL Most Assists as: Li-Li 2165

    Rank After Season 2 Placement: Gold 4
    Placement Win/Loss (eg 6-4): 7-3

    I thought that if I did good I could have hit plat or something, 7-3 I did not think was bad, but no. Place me at the same fucking rank I was before. What the fuck point of even resetting the mmr? Thanks Blizzard.

    Placed Season 1 Rank: Diamond 5
    Highest Season 1 Rank: Diamond 5
    Last Season 1 Rank: Diamond 5

    Rank After Season 2 Placement: Platinum 1
    Placement Win/Loss (eg 6-4): 6-4

    Dunno how that makes sense but okay.

    Placed Season 1 Rank: Diamond 3
    Highest Season 1 Rank: Diamond 1
    Last Season 1 Rank: Diamond 3

    Rank After Season 2 Placement: Platinum 3
    Placement Win/Loss (eg 6-4): 4-6 (fuck solo queue)

    HOW THE FUCK DO I GO DOWN A FULL LEAGUE TIER BY GOING 4-6? I could maybe see it if I lost every game, but I only went down one game from .500, which should theoretically put me back at around Diamond 3, maybe 4, or at worst 5. This game is fucking retarded. I guess you need to fucking win 100% of your games in a system that purposefully tires to keep you at a 50% win rate. Fucking logic.

    I have a suspicion that you are no longer placed in Diamond league when finishing your placement matches even if you are in the upper ranks of Diamond. This is how my stats looked from finishing my PMs.

    Placed Season 1 Rank: Diamond 3
    Highest Season 1 Rank: Diamond 1
    Last Season 1 Rank: Diamond 2

    Rank After Season 2 Placement: Platinum 2 (almost Platinum 1)
    Placement Win/Loss: 4-6

    These stats seem to align with how others in this thread have placed. I was pretty shocked at first that I was put an entire league lower than I originally was placed in, but I guess that Blizzard changed the algorithm for the soft reset compared to last season where some people got placed in Diamond 3 even when doing very poorly during their placement matches.

    Placement matches shouldn't drop you 5 ranks when you essentially break even, unless every season is a hard MMR reset, which it isn't. I dunno if there was any clarification, but I really wish they would make a post. I'm sure the forums must have blown up with people pissed they lost so much rank.

    I came to think of something. When they originally announced the pooling of spare points for promotion matches, they said they anticipated that the average rank for players would trend upwards since they didn't implement pooling of points for demotion. Perhaps this is their way to combat that some.

    you must be new here

    also @ the people complaining about their season 2 placement - its based on your current mmr not what your rank was in the previous season, so talking about where you placed in season 1 as a point of argument is pretty dam pointless

    Heh, its ok, Im subbed to WoW now, and most of my playtime goes there, so I dont think I would put in as much time and effort into this season as I did with the first one. Didnt even bother to tryhard in my placement games.
