Why are you picking a dumb semantic argument with someone who believes that a single bo5 is a meaningful sample size and is probably Charoisaur?

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?

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)
