OrangeMarmalade (its nice that Korean WoW players go for the same type of names as SC players) does a lot of super amazing things, but its too complicated even for commentators to explain. While SC also has these tricks that many of us will never know, you can at least get the idea of what's happening when a player shows some amazing skill. For example Strelok dropping everywhere against Naniwa. If Blizzard supported it properly it could have still been great. There's a definite market for a balanced class basedmarena, or objective style, game with WoWs control system. | ||

From a player's perspective, it was imbalanced and painfully random at times From a spectator's perspective, Blizzard added so many abilities and shit, that you will never understand what is totally going on, unless you've played the game at the highest level. There is no time to explain it either. PvP isn't meant to be watched. The reason the PvP scene survived through BC and WotLK is because of the VERY large player base of the game who tune in to find out who will win. Lots of pride and shit talking, made it kinda interesting. | ||

There were always some people who kept the tradition going but it's a lot easier to play the FoTM (flavor of the month) comp and take undeserved games. | ||

Not saying koreans dont do timing attacks but they dont seem to be as well planned out as alot of foreigners who base their entire game plan on them. | ||

Well official blizzard stance is that they try to balance arena around 3vs3 games... but the real problem is that blizz tries to balance classes/specs for PvE and PvP performance at the same time, which simply put just isn't possible (can't buff a weak abilitly for PvP because it would be OP in PvE and vice versa). So yeah the result is that while you can perform decently with any class/spec up to a certain point, there's not even 10 out of 30 specs viable for the highest level PvP. | ||

At the BLC prize ceremony at Dreamhack, 2GD said when giving the check that he would buy a bazooka with the money. Zalmah was on stage too for some reason. I laughed so much. | ||
