Blizzcon LR threads make me lose faith in the future of this planet

Is it really a coincidence that viewership is at an all-time low, the community has never been more toxic about balance and design, and that sponsors are leaving the scene in droves? Does this sound like the best SC2 has ever been?

don't mistake corelation for causation

So what would you say is causing all of this, if SC2 really is the best it's ever been?

the game's viewership has been steadily declining since the release, Overwatch was the nail to the coffin of the game in Korea, matchfixing scandal last year didn't really help

That still doesn't explain why ladder is deader than ever and that the community is extremely upset with how Blizzard has handled the game


How is the ladder dead? Do you even play the game yourself or do you just complain?

http://www.rankedftw.com/stats/population/1v1/#v=2&r=-2&sx=a&sy=g
And I would play the game if Blizzard acutally made it rewarding to play. As of now I don't feel any satisfaction playing SC2, only frustration.


So 75 thousand people actively playing 1v1 means SC is dead?

Not dead, just not the best it's ever been. Compared to other games it's pretty dead though.


Imagine thinking the garbage that was WOL ZvP (corrupters and remaxes to kill collosus balls into super OP infestor builds) and HOTS ZvP (7 hour swarm host games) were better than the current ZvP meta.

WOL ZvT was probably better than the current one but man did HOTS ever blow. LOTV kills HOTS.

These signature series so awesome.
I always thought (because of the look on his face) that Zest was like "I'm so good I don't even care about winning anymore" yet the reality is far from that.
Just amazing videos allowing us to understand their life a bit more.

Blizzcon as in the part that's played on the big stage during Blizzcon, not the part that's played in the studio the week before.

Apollo: Zest had a colourful career. He has won events but he is also a korean which cancels out all his work.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

I mean if you're technically referring to the Blizzcon venue then it's different cause the other games weren't played at Blizzcon
