StarCraft II's highly-anticipated Grandmaster League is now available! Promised for Season 2, and now it's finally here. Featuring the top 200 eligible players per region Grandmaster league is the new home of best of best Starcraft 2 players.
To see the top 200 players in your region for the current season, head on over to the Leagues & Ladders page in the game client and then click on "Grandmaster."
The Grandmaster League commences two weeks after the start of the second StarCraft II League season and is limited to the top 200 eligible players per region -- it is truly the most prestigious Battle.net league for StarCraft II players and will determine who belongs at the top of the ladder.Qualification for this league takes place during the first two weeks of play following the start of a new season, after which potential Grandmaster League candidates must play one more match in order to receive their promotion.
Keep in mind that play isn’t separated by league, so Diamond or Master League players will still have the same chance as before to face off against the Grandmasters.
Players must remain active to avoid being removed from the Grandmaster League. Grandmaster players who let their bonus pool pile up will automatically be removed from the league, making room for more active combatants.
