@How GW2 ‘can be’ esports: The standard is not really high. You just fight over money. Every PvE-Speed Run with a price pool is basically esports.
@How GW2 ‘could become a popular’ esports title: There are multiple threads regarding it. My personal two bullet points:
- Good league system, not a farm feast.
- Good balancing, not a Bristleback that can hit me for 20k (Yes, I have a screen shot).

Stop the nonsense “meta-shifting” and seriously balance the game.

Honestly, Conquest is one of those Make or Break type of gamemodes. Players often lose the initial team fight and the map snowballs. Because of this… people often go afk because it’s already a loss given SoloQ players (8 out of 10) aren’t coordinated enough to make a 150point comeback.
Granted, combacks in Tournaments happens more often than not buy for SoloQ casuals (which makes up an Esport game) will rarely experience it.
To summerize,
- You don’t have that high skill factor that seperates you from 10 other players. Even if you do, you’re so overly dependant on your team that it’s often irrelevant.
- All successful esports game has some sort of advancement for a loss. Players need to feel like they’re gaining something, even after they lose a match. The current system rewards Wins… not individual player performances. At a 50% win/lose ratio for every player, people will lose often and reward chests can only go so far (and it doesn’t cater to everyone imo… I wish I could turn them off tbh)
I think the meta game is great right now with the exception of a few minor items that needs addressing. As for casuals who make up every Esport genre, there just isn’t a league system in place for us. Never has been, and it’s been effecting GW2 PvP growth since launch.

So what you’re telling everyone is… you didn’t bother to dodge any of the damage, no reflects, evades, blinking out, involn-ing yourself.. ect. should i keep going?
Also if a pet hits you that hard so can anyone else 2x because you clearly have no toughness on you.. go troll somewhere else with your “I have screen shots”

- You are probably one of those guys who needs an OP pet lol.
- That’s true for any ability, still no other profession can hit so hard.
- Every other profession has to pick a high damage amulet to hit hard, but the druid can go as tanky as he wants, because the pet does not scale with the druids stats.
Also if a pet hits you that hard so can anyone else 2x because you clearly have no toughness on you..
- Even if I play with 0 toughness on the amulet, I still can’t hit you for that hard.
- Even if I play with full toughness, the pet will still take 50% of my health instead of 100%
- Do you even play the game? If yes, have you tried to buff your pet before pressing F2?
