The novice versions differed from the standard version as they included additional destructible rocks in rushing paths to slow the game down. Players could conduct up to 50 matches in Practice league, which used a special "novice version" of the ladder maps. The Practice League was separate from the rest of the ladder, which allowed new players to practice multiplayer matches prior to their placement matches. The Practice League no longer exists in the game, but was available early on in Wings of Liberty. Players are rated based on their standing within their individual division.Ī Novice version of "Blistering Sands" is used in the Practice League. Player's portraits are bordered by a frame which has a color that corresponds to their league. Aggregators such as can be used to compare points within a league over an entire region.įor example, a player in Silver Tier 1 would be closer to a promotion into Gold than a player in Silver Tier 2 or Tier 3. As a result, points after Season 9 can be compared across divisions (but still not across leagues). Season 9 removed division tiers, thereby widening the player pool for any given division in a league. The lower the skill level of a tier, the larger the hidden point offset. The purpose of these tiers was to normalize displayed point ranges across a league via modifying point totals with fixed offsets. Prior to Season 9, leagues below Master were subdivided into narrow skill ranges called division tiers. Players do not usually move from one division to another within the same league, though it is technically possible for a player to manually leave their division, and happen to be placed back into the same division. This means players will often face opponents from other divisions, and may face opponents from different leagues. The process of matchmaking is based solely on MMR and not on a player's division or league.
The name of each division is made up of a word from Starcraft terminology, and a letter from the ICAO phonetic alphabet, such as Gold League/ Division Zeratul Juliet. There are numerous divisions within each League, with each division being composed of up to 100 players. With even a perfect placement record, a player must work their way through the initial placement division(s) before being placed in Grandmaster. Regardless of a player's performance, however, placement matches currently do not place players in the highest league, Grandmaster. Though the time and frequency of these movements are kept explicitly hidden. After that, a player may get moved to another league, depending on performance. Players are placed in a league after having completed 5 placement matches.
