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

You mean better games? Just say it straight up.


What do you mean by democratic games?

He probably means more popular, as in it appeals to a larger demographic.

I am just hoping Blizzard can do something that increases popularity that attracts more viewers and sponsors.


Well DashedHopes... your hopes may be dashed.

Blizzard is entirely clueless on how to handle this situation, or any really. They created a WCS system that outright demolished the American scene, and could do the same to the European scene in a few years. They thought a unit like the Warhound was a great idea, and somehow not a single person on the Blizzard team realized how dumb it was until after it was already in Beta... they released the Hellbat as is... and how many nerfs did it require to get under control? I know myself ( http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=378373 ) and probably half this forum warned Blizzard that the Hellbat was BFH 2.0 in the Beta, but Blizzard knew better than we did... or not.

The list goes on and on. Blizzard got lucky with BW that it ended up as dynamic and balanced as it was, it certainly wasn't because of Blizzard's direction, things like Muta stacking and other unintended features happened to balance things out nicely. I have no hope in Blizzard, unless there is a major shakeup to the design team and they lock regions in the WCS. Kim and Browder need to go, I've been saying it since the release of HOTS.

In any arena of life, people should be held accountable and responsible for the quality of their work and the results. It is time for them be held accountable and responsible. Everyone fails at times, and that is okay. What isn't okay is to deny it.

What does it have to do with David Kim ? He's responsible of balance. I don't think balance has anything to do with SC2 losing fans.

I dont know if it has already been posted, but I think it's an interesting point of view about the situation sc2 is facing. Not blindly blaming Blizzard which is enough to be interesting those days :

People should really read that blog, rather then defaulting to bling Blizzard. Blaming WCS is only like 1/10 of the reasons for what happened to FXOkorea.
