Not just cause hes in legendary.
He also got to Legendary only by the hell that is soloq.
Additionally, when he got to legendary, he decided to go for the meta achivements (for wings). So started playing other classes he had no idea how to play in Legendary which is kinda legendary (unless he was in your team I guess).
Leeto is a Legend.
For anyone who tuned into his live streams, he made his frustrations very clear. He also publicly resorted to MMR tanking in live stream and other “unethical acts” along with spending most of his December in game…. If that’s what it takes, is that something you really want to be a part of? There is no prestige at the end of that line. No one except an irrational child is going to give your accomplishment any respect at all. However, he does get my respect for helping document for the world to see just how bad things are in GW2 sPvP.
To the men and women @ ArenaNet behind the series of decisions that delivered this horrible sPvP ranked season, I would say to each of you that I have no respect. In my perfect world you would be given no second chances, you careers taken from you and your livelihood’s impacted. Lessons need to be learned. Lessons only ArenaNet’s management have the authority to deal out.
I think the sPvP staff in context at ArenaNet have forgotten or just failed to consider the amount of hours so many of us committed to GW2 sPvP. Our love and respect for everything that the game was just prior to HoT releasing.
In arrogance, they completely ignored these problems. Many of us here even tried to forewarn of the pitfalls ahead… we weren’t push our opinions as much as just asking them to really rationalize the poor decision opportunities.
But they refused to listen. Most likely because they felt they knew more about the game than we did. Well, it’s very clear now just how incompetent some of them are. When you’re not competent to do a job and that failure has led to the discomfort or suffering of others (yes, the word suffering is not an over exaggeration… Look up the definition of the word and consider your emotional state correlated to their poor decisions that have risen up as you’ve played sPvP this season)
This leads to feelings of disgust, of hate. You get to the point where you begin to really start to channel some negative energy towards people you don’t know personally, but you’ve begun to despise at a very deep level.
For me it was at that point that I quit the guild I was in and stepped away from any organized approach to play. That decision saved my Christmas and was like coming up for air after almost drowning in the toxicity.
Again, to the men and women at ArenaNet who blotched this season. If you’re casually approaching all these comments and taking the attitude of “it’s just a game” then you clearly don’t understand the commitment some players have made to your product. Tetris is “just a game”. MMORPGs are virtual worlds people choose to invest their lives in. When horrible decisions are made you steal that from us. It’s not like loosing a loved one, but it is kind of like having your house burned down. Let’s not pretend that isn’’t how it is.
I wish your kitten company would grow up and start showing your player base more respect. I wish your management would take the actions needed to flush the poor talent and bring in strong talent to fix things.
I will continue to play casually (trying to limit myself to once a week at this point) but I’m ready to move on to whatever is next. I’ve gone through all the phases. Many have.
