I barely got a promotion story. I entered master league as soon as it came and always been there

This is similar to those "problems of a first world country" things. I feel you, too good at SC2 (relatively speaking), can no longer experience the emotion of promotion (unless you get GM ofc)

Was in Silver league for last season, played my placement match yesterday for the new season. Lost in a mirror match in which I felt I could have won but to my surprise I was placed in Gold.

platinum after first 5 games, dia first day dia come out.,master first day master come out
next season master, next season master.

Im jealous. Most here have a goal or a fear. I have nothing to win and nothing to loose.
To good to get demoted to bad to get into gm, this makes the game quit boring.

I think being in e.g. gold and try to fight the way into platin is way more fun, even when it dont look like it in the first place.

Got into bronze and was horrible in my 1st season. Decided to do some funky raven shit every game and surprisingly got promoted into silver. This mass raven strat got me into gold.
Started playing normally in gold and got to plat in the next season.
Finally reached diamond 2 seasons ago.
Can't somehow find the motivation to play more than 4-5 games a week to get into masters. Still i think im doing fairly well in my diamond league, winning more than half my games and maintaining top 20. Hopefully next season, i can get masters ^^

Did my placement match today and got promoted to diamond.
At the beginning of the match I started talking to the protoss and since I told him I was hoping for the promotion into diamond he said gl and left the game. Giving me the win and my promotion. This is the fucking nicest guy I ever met on bnet ever ever ever. Someone pls build him a statue that is worth him!

This is the coolest story here ^^

Even though one game barely matters for your MMR/promotion, the pure awesome emitting from this Protoss player ought to be emulated

i wanted the promotion to masters really badly after idling in diamond for nearly a year now. Problem was, i never really had the time. So when i had summer vacation i played 10 ladder games each day for a whole month. My win ratio was 55-70% average, still no promotion. For the following 2 months i had to go to university again so i played about 6-10 games a week (ladder fear, exhausting traveling since i travel a total of 4 hours each day to get to university and back). But lately, i have been playing against masters player only (which was a bit weird, since i was only diamond). So after like a month of playing only vs master player (who are by the way somehow worse than top diamonds -.-) i finally got promoted 10 minutes ago and am as happy as can be after working so hard for it . So my hard work really payed off and i feel like i really deserve this

Now i have about 2 years left to become number one Grandmaster

Stopped playing while in gold league about 3 months ago. My account had been inactive for so long I had to play placement matches again, but this time, I got into Plat. Gotta say, this is one of those truly wtf moments. Sure, I did some practice in Yabot to shore up my mechanical/build skills, but in my experience, taking an extended break from a game this complex should leave you behind everyone else.
I'm a noob

Bought the game near the end of march this year. Got placed into Bronze and slowly started climbing that ladder. Reached silver mid april, gold league close to may, then made it into platinum in june. Mid july i started playing team games and didn't touch 1v1s for about 2 months... Made it into diamond in 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4. Once this was achieved I decided it was time to get a 4th shiny diamond and so I picked up 1v1 again.
Season 4 came and yesterday I was promoted to diamond!

Skill is slowly increasing, which is a wonderful feeling ^_^
Hoping to reach master league before HotS is out

I started as a total noob in bronze with 1 win and 63 losses. When the game launched i worked very hard and finally got into silver, then i watched alot of streams and learned from there and then began playing again. I got promoted to gold. And later on when i played even more i got platinum... And the rest is boring, btw im masters now.

Started on the EU server and put into server after placements, 2 months later or so got promoted to gold.

Swapped to the US server and got put into bronze o_O. Promoted to silver and then gold within 2 weeks. Was gold the rest of the time and then out of nowhere i got promoted in my season 3 placement match and been there since.

Played for fun, got to top 200 by accident. GM came along, got into it after a 14 game win streak, was top 1 Masters during that time in the world.

Uni started, currently noobing around in high masters.
