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?

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.

it was just as bad when Protoss could take 6:30 3rd and make stalkers on every map they didn't have to double guess themselves for proxy hatcheries

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

Everyone knows games lost outside of the Blizzcon stage are not real games

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

That's not how ladder works tho.
LoL has far more active players but I always have to wait 10-15 fucking minutes before entering a ladder match (in game I mean, not the fucking long as well lobby which can be terminated if someone decides to leave -;-). Whereas on sc2 I get a match in a minute maximum... So I'm having a far better ladder experience on sc2 than LoL. (ofc LoL is a team game, but OW is as well but the waiting time is far less, of course it's because you don't have to wait for specific roles in OW... but guess what? as a player I don't give a crap about the reasons it takes so long to find a match in LoL, it doesn't excuse the fact that it makes for a kinda shit ladder experience)

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?

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.


HotS PvZ wasn't bad once swarmhosts weren't a thing anymore

it was just as bad when Protoss could take 6:30 3rd and make stalkers on every map they didn't have to double guess themselves for proxy hatcheries

But the blink sentry vs roach hydra micro battle was amazing.
I remember PartinG doing such crazy things with his units.

MICRO BATTLE

you mean zerg watching forcefields and blink slowly kill them before hive

Apollo just smirked when incontrol was talking about how hard the korean scene was.

Nobody gonna check if it's an alt? No? Okay.

Yeah you probably didn't play the game right then

+2 blink was a garbage meta though.


Disagree, it was much better than right now.
