poor little indie devs at blizzard

2017-10-11 14:07:08 UTC  

in addition to that, they have nerfed some cards into the ground like crazy

2017-10-11 14:07:24 UTC  

instead of giving charge to minions, warsong commander now gives those with charge + 1 attack

2017-10-11 14:07:27 UTC  

which fuckin sucks

2017-10-11 14:07:45 UTC  

when people criticized them, they said they wanted to keep "the soul of the card"

2017-10-11 14:08:09 UTC  

remove the entire ability and give it a +1 attack!?

2017-10-11 14:08:17 UTC  

Sad!

2017-10-11 14:09:05 UTC  

blizzard are trying to get into the esports scene

2017-10-11 14:09:14 UTC  

but with that mentality its not going to work

2017-10-11 14:09:15 UTC  

lol... theres a minion..

2017-10-11 14:09:26 UTC  

"add a random spell to your hand" a player has won a tournament with that

2017-10-11 14:09:33 UTC  

against a 15 year old who was PRETTY SALTY after that

2017-10-11 14:09:48 UTC  

good design. not.

2017-10-11 14:09:51 UTC  

let's hope the blizzard snap out of it

2017-10-11 14:09:56 UTC  

I think you underestimate the value of new players to games that they make.

The mentality issue is one that I agree with. They shun complexity and because of that they also shun depth. That IS a massive problem for a competitive scene.

2017-10-11 14:10:00 UTC  

again, hots is fine

2017-10-11 14:10:10 UTC  

ive played league for years

2017-10-11 14:10:21 UTC  

been pissin me off super hard

2017-10-11 14:10:26 UTC  

hots is awesome though

2017-10-11 14:10:30 UTC  

lot of fun for me

2017-10-11 14:10:39 UTC  

many people dont see complexity

2017-10-11 14:10:49 UTC  

they say "omg no items, im out"

2017-10-11 14:10:54 UTC  

and thats it

2017-10-11 14:11:00 UTC  

Well, in League they err on the other side.

2017-10-11 14:11:12 UTC  

league is pushing toxic behavior

2017-10-11 14:11:18 UTC  

Everything is directed at e-sports and the pros and nothing is directed at the 80% of people who never get beyond silver.

2017-10-11 14:11:28 UTC  

in hots, it doesnt matter who executes the enemy, everyone gets a part

2017-10-11 14:11:35 UTC  

in league they spam KS

2017-10-11 14:12:09 UTC  

However, Hots does not allow individuals to shine very much.

2017-10-11 14:12:15 UTC  

it does.

2017-10-11 14:12:19 UTC  

And that is something that will get in the way of a competitive scene

2017-10-11 14:12:38 UTC  

check hots wtf moments

2017-10-11 14:13:15 UTC  

it doesnt let individuals shine through items, which are usually stats

2017-10-11 14:13:18 UTC  

something i hated about league

2017-10-11 14:13:37 UTC  

someone comes and attacks you and you have no chance cuz they killed your top before and bought shit with that money

2017-10-11 14:13:44 UTC  

I like the depth that an item system offers.

2017-10-11 14:13:45 UTC  

you lose for things you cannot control

2017-10-11 14:13:52 UTC  

heroes has a replacement for that

2017-10-11 14:13:57 UTC  

And I think that you should be able to dominate by out-playing.

2017-10-11 14:14:00 UTC  

very complicated talents etc.

2017-10-11 14:14:07 UTC  

thats how it works in heroes
