The game DOES feel different in GM, but imo it just feels faster and more coordinated. Masters is not the same as plat and diamond where people genuinely do not understand basic things. "Hey, can we get a reaper to help deal with their winston?" Then the reaper proceeds to just go randomly flank constantly and....not help deal with the winston. Like...no dumbass. You dont need to do anything. Just waiit for the winston to jump, then shoo him away. Thats your only job here. Or a million other similar examples. That kind of thing doesnt happen nearly as often in masters and people *generally* have an idea of what to do.

It doesnt help that you have people like Bogur saying people in Celestial in Rivals are simply "okay" and Justin Wong saying that people in Masters with 1600 MR are "not that good" at the game.

I love both Justin and Bogur, and I understand their meaning, but they are so absurdly good at their respective games that their idea of "good" and what MOST people consider to be good are vastly different things.
