matchmaking? you do realize the queue times for paid tournaments correct? reading forums again reminds me of why I stopped before the game came out.
The top teams end up playing each other over and over all night every night, we are lucky to have 2 tournaments running at the same time. People are front-runners when it comes to it, so ANet needs to be smart and work around it. People don’t want competition, they want to see their name plastered on the top of a list somewhere. What we NEED, is teams to step up and play. Challenge. De-throne. League took off after the game was polished with esport stuff where the company waiting to invest till features were completed…ANet is just doing the same. A little confidence goes a long way, the economy knows that best.
All in all, ANet’s first big patch was mostly a success in my opinion. Staff ele’s, thieves, block bug, and portal were the primary destructive forces of tpvp, and have been properly dealt with. Let us all remember this is a conquest mode game, so bunkering will be inevitable, guardian is just that type of class.
I want to just point out that I’ve invested more in this game than any of you, I can say that this patch has great meta changes.. Changes that will make a difference in the balance of this game for the good of those who play competitively. Don’t take for granted that they balance the game on meta tpvp and not pve, most games do the opposite.
