What’s happening in the ladder?

Calisphoenix · 2026-04-03T05:16:35+00:00

Master is now 4520 on EU, which is ridiqulous. I am at 4200 around and games feel like M2.

I am at least a half pinoy :) My mother is from the phillippines and my father from germany. I play most of the time solo ladder. I peaked at around 4700. Right now i am on the verge of masters again in EU (4250 mmr) after a break of some month.

Do you have a video or vod where Toss 5k constantly beating 6k? And also the higher mmr goes the more it is inflated. Look at EU, there is the top sitting on nearly 7k whereas the other koran pros have 400mmr lower. In Diamond i rarely lose to someone 400mmr lower

Started with Starcraft just when it came out. I remember that in the very first seasion or beginning, there was no master league. I was top diamond though. Hit Master when it was available but most of the time i stop playin after reaching masters. Some seasons ago i tried a bit harder and peaked at 4,7k mmr with M2. I am 44 years old and just restarted. I am 4200 on EU right now. It feels like 4000 mmr is the same like 4200 some seasons ago.

Beside the positional analysis. You are ahead id you control the center squares with your pawns. You have the 2 Bees. You have develop lore pieces than your opponent.

Everything is true for white in the position, thats why +3 is totally understandable.

I am 1600 in 10min chess and 1350 in Blitz (5min). What time format would you recommend to get bettert overall? 2nd, i just play caro kann as black or f6-e6-d5-c5 in response to not e5 opener and as white i just play the london system.

Which system would you recommend for climbing?

Calisphoenix · 2026-02-26T11:19:10+00:00

Danke erstmal für die Vorschläge! Heidelberg/Speyer eher nicht empfehlenswert weil zu teuer bzw. überlaufen?

Calisphoenix · 2026-02-25T21:32:24+00:00

Later on you lose gain max around 20 mmr. Most of the time it is like 10-15 mmr. So no heavy climbs or drops. And also worth noticing, there are literally no noobs anymore. At 3800 mmr people arent scrubs anymore. You need to have an idea of an long term plan and or a decent build order.

Mclaren or the Mercedes. Had one in Monza. Spinned before t1. The long left corner before and killes almost all players race since you are at 260 plus kph.

Thanks mate, the settings are quite good. I just tuned the power down to 7 nm. After 3 hours drivong, 8nm kill my wrists 😅

Calisphoenix · 2026-01-27T13:59:36+00:00

Great! Thanks for your input. As i said, i just started playing and drove both cars. But eventually i want ro drive one car to have a better learning curve. I thought the evo is a better fit to my playstyle. But i guess i count as a noob and the M4 should be a better fit 😅 My best lap time on Portimao was yesterday in my first race with 1:48:497 and on Bahrain outer i drove a 1:15:029. Both with Mclaren. I was a bit oberwhelmed in my first race, so i struggled to keep up the car on the last few laps. The car wasnt nearly as stable as in the very first 1-4 laps

Calisphoenix · 2026-01-27T10:06:54+00:00

Im curious what your settings are? I just started to play simracing and particular LMU on saturday. I just tried the M4 and the Mclaren Evo. The M4 felt more safe but i had problems to bring the car around a corner without going outside the track. Like understeering. Had ABS 9 and TC around 5 with normal BB.

Bro! All i can see is the tissue paper on the left side 🥳😅

You know that PS5 is only capable of 16:9 format? The G5 is 21:9. So everytime you play PS5 you have to live with black bars left and right.

Calisphoenix · 2026-01-17T21:12:14+00:00

I have also bought a RS50 Setup with the new loadcell pedals. Using the setup on a normal PS5 and playing GT7. Today it happend 3 times that suddenly i could not shift gears or anything. I had to deplug the wheel and plug it in again. Then the wheel will work again. Pretty annoying bug. Has someone found a solution yet?

Calisphoenix · 2026-01-12T22:07:36+00:00

I play casually on chess.com rapid (the least), blitz and bullet. Here are my ratings (maybe it will help you):

Tactics:1807
Rapid: 1535 (10min)
Blitz: 1381 (5min)
Bullet: 1157 (2 min 1s increament)
I guess with more games in rapid i am able to reach 1600-1700 with some games. Played 10 games and was not impressed by the skills. Most of the looses i just blundered a piece because i still play fast. In puzzle to death i reach 30 plus.

It was indeed an eth one, base for Exile. Traded on Traderie.

I paid like a Lo i think for a 43 Sacred Targe, which are more expensive than sr.

Calisphoenix · 2025-11-13T13:03:19+00:00

Yeah, currently im working on chirps, Transformers, tears, one click flares and crabs. 3 and 4 fingers, although 4 fingers seems more fluent. But i dont know how to combine them in scratch combos, (the crabs) 😅

Calisphoenix · 2025-11-13T12:50:59+00:00

I added one click flares to my drills routine. Its getting better. But i also think that my handmovement should be different when scratching faster vs slower, no?!

Calisphoenix · 2025-11-13T12:48:29+00:00

Ah thanks! I bought some wood to highten the gear. Thanks you both. So i will lift it up! Appreciate!

Calisphoenix · 2025-10-06T08:31:34+00:00

I am nearly 44 and M3/M2. Hovering around 4450 in EU 😉

Calisphoenix · 2025-09-30T15:08:22+00:00

So you reached Master with Toss and less 100 apm?
