This. Reached masters a few seasons ago and then it was pretty much just meh to 1v1. I know I won't reach GM, so fuck it. | ||

@Greenyk- Yeah if customs worked like that. I guess you can get a custom on Shattered Temple... | ||

I hate rock paper scissors. About the only way you could talk me into buying HotS is if you told me that blizzard was removing all this +damage to this type or that type nonsense that I thought was only for low budget rts games that completely revolve around the RPS formula because their studio doesn't have time to properly balance the game, and re-balance SC2 through mechanics such as movement speed, range, rate of fire, splash etc.... but what do I know? I am just a lowly peon and dustin browder is teh bestest rts developer evar. | ||

The reason why I'm not playing that much is...well due to stress.It's strange too, like two weeks ago I played 25 games a single day, a damn record for me and I actually won more than half of those games, I didn't really rage, I had so much fun and felt like I was improving. Then, a week ago I played and lost 6 in a row. Then despair set in and I abandoned the game again. It is a damn cycle I can't break out of. | ||

This combined with all of the all-ins, and BMers make for a quite boring game after some time. At this rate Im waiting for HoTs to really change the game again. Id like to beat people that I am better than, rather than lose to their all in, just as much as im hoping for a clan system, weekly Bnet hosted tournaments, better chat channels(not the ones where I have to squint to see what ppl are saying. Really sad, Starcraft has always been my number one game ever since iccup for BW, but sc2 just isnt cutting it. | ||

The drop off is too be expected but that big a drop off is somewhat surprising, Thats because the custom game system sucks and not many casual players actually play them. | ||

I enjoy the new things and I am an MMO player at heart (played EQ1 for about 9 years). It got to the point where the time needed to go above platinum was too demanding for me and the limited map pool made the game extremely repetitive. As a protoss, I felt like I had to 2 gate expand or forge expand every game. PvP was a coinflip except on teldarim where every game MUST be a 4 gate. PvT was the most enojyable of all but thats the match up that I saw the least in my ladder games. I must say if they added a better chat system to BNET 2.0 and gave more statistics on your game play with maybe charts to show your skill improvement, it might help me come back but I have no plans to do so at this time. | ||
