I noticed this in a packetlog of a 0x26 (Profile Request):
......
5C 53 45 58 50 5C 31 5C 68 69 67 68 20 72 61 74    \SEXP\1\high rat
69 6E 67 00 44 79 6E 4B 65 79 5C 53 45 58 50 5C    ing.DynKey\SEXP\
31 5C 72 61 6E 6B 00 52 65 63 6F 72 64 5C 53 45    1\rank.Record\SE
......


I've never seen DynKey\SEXP\1\rank before, does anybody know what that is?

Thanks!

DynKey\ has always been used to find SC/BW ladder ranks.

hmm, you're right, I just went back to a really old packetlog and there it was!

Any idea what it means?

It's their Rank... High Rank is Record\?\1\High Rank, Rating is Record\?\1\Rating, High Rating is Record\?\1\High Rating.

Dynamic Key?  Doesn't change much, only when ladder updates, where your wins/losses would update after each game you play?

Not quite.  It's not a real key, but calculated dynamically whenever you request it.  Similar in principle to HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA in the Windows registry.
