    Militis pointed out to me that Practice Matches are *NOT* Placement matches.

    I'm so damn pissed I played a bunch of those damned practice matches now. Argh.

    Oh come on now. This is not your first time doing 1v1s. How did you not notice that?

    Fail.
    On another note diamond ftw (5-0) :D (Scout kilo division??)
    lulz.

    EDIT: Has anyone had everything jsut freeze? Not lag or anything, the game just stops.
    EDIT2: when this happens it doesn't count as a loss at least... (problem was i was about to win)

    Yes. Considering it happened to other people I was playing with simultaneously (and has thus far only happened while my team was winning), I'm pretty convinced it's a drop hack.

    Delirium: Yeah. Me, Havoc, DressedinBlack, and Mercenary just played a 2v2 in which it was lagging like shit, then just STOPPED like 4 minutes into the game. I think it's a common problem. My cousin was playing a 1v1 placement match while I was watching and it stopped for him too.

    1v1 Gold, division 33...I'm pretty happy with that, considering I was in the Copper league last time.

    I'm pissed. After the patch, I can no longer play on medium quality without the game slowing down :(.

    I am, apparently to add friends now we have to put in our e-mails. I'm switching back to an older driver and see if that will solve my graphics setting problem.

    I can only play 1v1 and maybe 2v2 in lowest settings now. Anything more and the lag becomes unbearable. Hope blizzard fixes this problem soon.

    Apparently the lag problem is caused by Blizzard changing the network code from TCP/IP to UTP, which will be good in the long run but hasn't been implemented properly yet.

    I lagged out in a practice game against the computer. Gonna hold off doing my placements for a bit. I don't really understand the removal of Copper and the addition of Diamond. Doesn't make much sense to me.

    Most people got promoted to a higher league, what's not to understand? There's a big difference for most between being the last winner and being a loser. ;)
