Awesome how blizzard tried to make sc2 better, but they did it so amazingly bad that its slowly killing the game, not that i mind. Viva la dota 2!


I wouldn't say they made SC2 bad... it's just that we have the gigantic empires of LoL and Dota gobbling up the territory. Even if they made SC2 simply an updated version of BW the numbers would still be in favor of LoL/Dota. People just aren't infatuated with RTS nowadays. They want simple, casual, anxiety free esports and the moba games fulfill that niche.

Do you really think moba games are anxiety free?

I don't know about lol, but Dota isn't anxiety free AT ALL. If you do mistake against mid level opponents you get punished hard. I don't like to play mid because I know I have to accomplish a lot and my mistakes will be even bigger.

People play moba because everyone is playing moba, there was the time of MMORPG and nowadays half of this is desert. You know, people play what everyone plays, I like SC2 but I don't have any friend who plays so I didn't even bought HotS since I knew would be an waste of a lot of money (it is too expensive too )


this is why, LoL has servers all over the world and its free(even LAS/Brasil like SC2 had, but its free and a lot of people play it and donate)i dont know a single person that didnt bought something in LoL. But they cant buy sc2 because of inflation, and in Latin America 80 dollars already is a lot (i have money , and had to pay like 100) Meanwhile LoL is free... Many of my friends can't buy it so they play LoL. I think they should atleast sell the race online, like you want Terran you pay 1 tax and play, like USS15).

And mobas are anxiety free compared to SC, i played in hard leagues in dota and now im ranking in lol really fast.

I think its either a expensive game with imba units or a free with balanced ones, the first one so people watch or the second so people play

Starcraft just isn't that entertaining to watch (due to the stagnant meta), unless you watch it once in a while. One of the main reasons (I think, well, at least for me) people still watch/follow the scene is because of the hype the players and teams get, not for the game itself. Personally I think that Blizzard should just give each race really imba units and then stop balancing. SC is on a decline right now anyways, might as well leave it be.

Edit: Hope FXO find another big sponsor soon.


thats your personal opinion, personally I love to watch sc2 and Im watching maybe 80% of the tournament games.


Word up. It's so weird when the number 1 community site for Starcraft 2 sometimes tends to consist entirely of people who don't like Starcraft 2.

Personally, I agree with you. I love the game, and I think it's is in a great place gameplay-wise right now. The balance is really good (Aligulac numbers for September have all MUs within 2 %-units from 50%), and despite of all the whining about "stale meta", all MUs are more varied and flexible than in WoL (with the possible exception of TvZ, and that's still the most entertaining MU IMO)

Starcraft fan checking in. I do in fact like to watch this game (although I have way less time to do so than I did in HS -_-)

Choya says in his interviews that the SC2 industry has been ruined and it is Blizzard's fault for bringing the current WCS system. He says that Blizzard killed the individual leagues and if they continue like this without changes, he plans to disband the team and his players also have also said that they will switch to different games.

its not really a suprise.
More worth to sponsor LoL/DotA. The reason why people say it is a dying game is because not because of x factor at the time they say its a dying game, its because they see that at the current trend, sponsors will pull out which is essentially a dead game.

Though I hate the word dead, so in my perspective it is not growing.
In some cases closing a door opens another.


but is really the case for SC2? Do 2 doors have to close before one opens?

The reason of contract cancelation and the future plans will be announced later, so do not worry too much please. We won't go back to FoU. If team continues, we will be a whole new team, not FoU.

Here you go

Sad news but the Korea SCII isn't doing as well as the foreign well so its not surprising in the least.

You have the convergence of old TL members who only like BW and not SC2 being fueled/fueling people who like only like LoL/Dota2 and not SC2. For some its seen as revenge for others its just trolling. It is what it is and we can only let the mods try a keep the peace.

read this http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=430910

"There's about half a year left on our contract with FXO, but they informed us that they would be stopping their support of the team." said head coach Choya. "FXO has judged that StarCraft2 is no longer useful for giving their company exposure, and informed us they are ceasing their support because StarCraft is not doing well."

No, it's just going to Dota2 and LoL, two very democratic games, which SC:BW was in the past.
