also i was dropping lvl9s by the end so even Saren didn't pose much of a threat

Anything in particular that makes it easier?

Yeah, the game is more fluid and i think the new leveling system makes you drop high level items way too fast

The high level items would do that in ME1, makes sense.

Meanwhile I continue my insanity Engineer playthrough of the classic trilogy, just a few moments ago I finished ME2. Goddamn this game still kicks so much ass it's unreal

Thats what happens when 90% of the money is concentrated in a single event. Why bother with competing if playing scripted games is better for your financial situation. It's not like anybody is afraid of Valve who ban a team once every 5 years and call it a day.

Isn't the DPC supposed to help with that ? Previously those teams would have to wait for a major/minor to throw, but now they can do it during the DPC season and the majors.

those players did it during non valve leagues before. players (newbee, arrow gaming, elite wolves, etc.) are more often banned for match fixing in non valve events, as there's a lot less attention on those games

True, i'm saying that TI has nothing to do with teams throwing or not. Those players have now the opportunity for some valve money during the year, so it shoudln't make people throw more. Cheaters gonna cheat

But the Valve money is laughable at best and blocks other events from happening at the same time, so that income falls flat.
IDK why players don't get paid for each map win. Make it 1k per map won. $200 per player. That would at least give some reason to win clean money instead of throwing and prevent teams from disbanding after 3 matches.

players should get salaries, helped by Valve.

Reduce the price money, idk, but make people earn a constant amount of money + bonuses

Can you invite friends for free to it takes two?

Has anyone played Hunt: Showdown? I usually don't really like battle royale type games but Hunt has been a ton of fun.
