Understandable I guess, but saddening that dreamhack (might, may, have?) Turned their back on the game that helped them get to where they are. No loyalty dreamhack. | ||

Well, it's not just Blizzard who is messing it up. I agree, there is lots of room for improvement. Just look at all eSports functions and features that have been added in Dota2 and lately CS:GO. One can tranform lots of those into SC2 to make it a better game. The one thing which is really worrying me is that the young generation of players seem to like easy-to-learn casual games. Games like Call of Duty, League of Legends, Hearthstone or the newest in the line Heroes of the Storm are the most popular. I grew up with SC:BW and I still love it, but nowadays it seems that most people (= the mass market) don't like stressful games where you have to think and control lots of stuff at the same time. LotV won't save "eSports" or the RTS genre, it just lacks a lot of attention. It doesn't make RTS attractive for the mass. Dreamhack now kicking out SC2 makes me really sad. It reminds me of the World Cyber Games (WCG), once the best international tourney for SC:BW which has evolved to a shadow of it's old self. | ||

I would prefer f2p ladder though and creating an environment where people don't get anxiety before pressing the "find match" button (you guys know what youtube video I'm talking about). | ||

Beside, we have all the competition we can wish for in Korea right now. You do realize that the title is "SC2 not featured at DH Bucharest 2015" and not "SC2 not featured at DH anymore", right? | ||

We all love SC2 here, it's a sc2 community...but honestly it lost a lot of steam, we can't deny that...nobody can deny that. hopefully legacy will fill in some holes and boost it a bit! | ||

Its nothing to do with Blizzard design decisions, if in 98 BW came out and LoL came out there would be no talk about BW and probably no SC2 at all. Even if Blizzard imported every BW fan boy suggestion, the game would have lost out out to MOBAs anyway. Its just unfortunate that fans dont enjoy RTS as a genre anymore and prefer MOBAs -- I personally dont understand their popularity or the popularity of cardstone but I am capable of accepting the sheer numbers you see for streamed games. | ||

Even more sad as we haven't even seen the last SC2 expansion yet! I still hope, LotV will change so much for the better, but with every status update of Blizz my hopes are dwindeling. Hope Blizz recognizes that 2 or 3 new units just won't do it! Anyway, it was great pleasure with DH for all the years. Many of my best tourney memories are of DH.  Was always the coolest tourney and most fun to watch. Thanks so much and hope to see you once again in Starcraft universe! | ||

I doubt that. The player scene and their affinity to certain genres was different. I actually know a lot of oldschool players really disliking moba games. | ||
