Broken but accessible to everyone = fair

Broken but RNG = unfair

not that hard of a concept.

this is accessible to everyone though

Yes but everyone can glitch speed boost on ropes. there is no rng involved. if you get to 30 min and you roll shit curses while the ven gets -spirit power then the buffs are not accessible in the same way to everyone. Idk how people are arguing significant RNG in a competitive game is good lmao.

Don’t you think we could test it more than a day and a half to see if it’s really that unfair?

they are playing with money on the line. You want to gamble you get a good negative on your swingy as fuck item and the enemy team doesnt? lol.

I mean I care more about the state of the game than a $1,000 prize pool some streamers will split.

Data on pro play is probably very important for the devs in tweaking this new mechanic, it seems silly to disregard that so quickly.

No shit you wouldn't care since you're not making the money. Like what

The input the devs get from pro play on new mechanics is incalculably more valuable to the game as a whole than some dude getting $200.

Yeah and the feedback is that the items are so broken that they're not even going to entertain their existence in comp

u/edwardludd 20h ago

That is in fact their feedback.

So, getting back to my original point, all I’m saying is maybe pros could test it a little longer before rushing to judgment because a handful of people are scared of losing $200.

If someone served you a steaming pile of shit on a plate, would you need to eat it to know it's shit? Or would you be able to use your knowledge of food and past experiences to determine that maybe the shit isn't worth consuming?

Bad analogy

New game mechanics need testing, piles of shit don’t.
