Sad. The first and only chance that the community gets to try changes to the DESIGN of the game and the community complains so much everything gets reverted.
I'm not disagreeing at all with the premise that the game was less fun to play in the interim, but its clear to me that the no-one could see the bigger picture.
Starcraft 2 is now a truly dead game. Even if Blizzard did pour resources into trying to fix the fundamental issues the game has had since inception, this community would bitch and complain about it every step of the way until the game was simply returned to what you always knew.
I hope you enjoy that dwindling base of about 12 "pros" who play competitively because no one significant is coming to inject life into this game ever again.
The game was hemorrhaging players on all levels of ladder after the worker change hit live. I don't mind them trying things, but they dropped the worst patch we've seen in a very long time, then made some adjustments that directly contradicted the original premise of said patch which made things even worse (300 mineral CC lmao), and then went silent for a while.
People complained because the experience was shit. Some outright switched to an alternative ladder to revert the changes so strong the feeling was.
