2v2 Master League

Tonight I placed into 2v2 Master League on StarCraft 2 with a buddy.  Our MMRs were already fairly high in the diamond range and when we went 5-0, we beat 4 high diamond teams and a Master's team on our last match to get in.  It feels kinda silly to be able to place directly into Master League, since it's supposed to be so prestigious.  I feel like one should have to earn it through a higher amount of games, but it's possible that we just got really lucky, although we did have to play well on our final placement match.  Anyway, there's only one mode left and it's arguably the toughest league to get: 1v1.  I'm not looking forward to it, but I guess I should at least try...
