I just wanted to inform that the ladder system was updated a little while ago with the new way of calculating K value. Its now based on map size as before until we have collected data of how long it takes to complete a game on the map. It will then use another K value based on that. Best is to read the ladder section in the wiki which is updated:

Right now the K value is unknown but we are going to show each maps K value when we release the next version.
