>What is Battlerite? Battlerite is spiritual successor of BLC - a PvP skillshot-based team arena game, similar to WoW Arena. It is made as the successor to Bloodline Champions, and is currently in Early Access. Release date slated at early 2017.
He makes a few valid points but Matchmaking IS and WILL BE the cause of the player exodus. No one likes to lose. Bad matchmaking causes you to lose. I prefer DotA's forced 50% than this shit where you can only lose because you are grade 10 and always get paired vs rank 13.
Even with free weekend, the game is pretty much comatose.

>WAAH, I GET REKT BECAUSE OF MM
Then why am i rank 14 with 65% win? The MM system is the same for everyone. Inb4 "luck". Luck over 2000 games? Haha, keep telling that to yourself if it makes you feel better, you low grade 10 scrub.

It's not the first time it's been done. Some people look at the hard numbers provided, and that colors their perception of the patch overall. By keeping it vague, the idea is to get into the game and see for yourself what has changed so that you can more organically process the differences.
As mentioned in the past, the Discord testers are tantamount to abusive husbands: they beat and abuse the devs because they love the game and want it to succeed. SLS decided to break off the relationship and start fresh.

That would only work if game didn't have any numbers in it at all. Completely stupid on their part.

Hi SLS. Fix the fucking matchmaking please

i hate stunlock more and more every time they do something new. this is one of THE shittiest ways to treat your community. who gives a FUCK about expectations? people are gonna list the exact changes anyway and THEN they're gonna make their expectations/reactions. all this does is add an extra step for some players to find the changes themselves and them document them. nothing is different.
again there's seriously no fix for this. there's not enough players in each server-region to keep the matches balanced skill-wise, especially when they're spread across unranked 2v2 + 3v3 and ranked 2v2 + 3v3. even NOW at 9k current players, that's still 9k (unevenly) split across 15 servers, with 4 seperate queues EACH. it's just not possible by any means.

Hi daniel

>nothing is different. It is, though. The casuals will just read stuff and actually think that it got changed. They probably wont even realize that RKs SB had its cooldown increased by only 1 second. The committed player find out about this shit because they need the numbers to assess situations, 95% of the community doesnt. Its a shit move but make sense when all you want to do is fool people, which is clearly what SLS is going for with Battlerite.

Is Varesh actually good? Every time I try him I end up playing like shit.
Dylan Taylor
he's honestly very average and relies on landing his tiny AoE as much as possible
Brayden Powell
Varesh is one of the weaker ranged characters, if only because he's terribly immobile in comparison.

having so many different queues is killing the game, and clearly 2s vs 3s mentality is ruining the balance
Cooper Roberts
Varesh is fun to play as long as you're playing against g9-g10 shitters because you can truly shred them apart the amount of damage he does when left un checked is insane. Then when you get people who know at all what the fuck they are doing and get Bakko'ed it's not fun anymore
Julian Lee
seems like a you have a severe cause of gitgud if you think that Bakko is a counter to varesh

What are even the SLS arguments for promoting 2v2 over 3v3?
John Rodriguez
2v2 queue is dying 3v3 queue is dead
Samuel Campbell
they are not promoting anything, that's the thing. And since they said, that you can Q both for 2v2 and 3v3 in next patch, they will keep both of the mode in ranked fucking retards i swear
Josiah Ramirez
they thought 3v3 was too hard for leaguebabies and want this game to be babyzone
they've said repeatedly that they intended this game to be 2v2 focused, they've only started to be silent and wishy-washy after they got massive backlash from people telling them they were retarded for trying to focus on 2v2
Mason Hughes
>3v3 is off by default >they are not promoting anything
I mean, that clearly shows something.
Jeremiah Sanders
it was more popular in BLC, and it's easier to find 1 friend to play with than it is to find 2 friends (or, easier to match 4 people instead of 6)
the issue is it was more popular in BLC BECAUSE it was easier to find 1 friend instead of 2, and the only reason it was easier to find 1 friend instead of 2 is because the game had such a low playerbase
Colton Adams
I made the switch to 3v3 and this is way more fun
Tyler Phillips
t. retard who never played blc the automated ingame 2v2 tournaments were more popular than the 3v3 ones late in the game's lifespan
blc was only ever balanced around 3v3 even when it was dying, and 2v2 players + their balance complaints were completely ignored at all times, you couldn't even queue for 2v2 ranked as a solo player and when the population started to drop 2v2 ranked was removed entirely
Jaxson Williams
i bought this game and i keep forgetting it exists. i hope this free weekend brings in more people to play with.
Jackson Allen
>automated ingame 2v2 tournaments were more popular
yeah that's what i said everything else about my post you're just assuming i meant to make yourself feel better about being "right"
The numbers have been surging back, they haven't been this high since EA's release.
The problem is that they'll probably sink back down to 2k once this is over
Aiden Evans
you said 2v2 was more popular which is completely false
the automated tournaments were not even particularly popular until the game was nearly dead and it was the only way people could get decent games, the vast majority of people who only had 1 friend would just duoqueue 3v3 ranked
Alexander Walker
and with all the f2ps (and EA fuckers STILL) complaining about matchmaking, they're not going to come back until SLS makes a "WE FIXED MATCHMAKING.. AGAIN" post. then they're gonna play, see that they still get shitty teammates and still lose, and then quit
Jace Cox
I don't understand why people like that are even playing multiplayer games. If you can't handle losing and needing to improve your play why would you pick a competitive multiplayer game to play?
Ryan Peterson
can you fucking stop with that shit already goddamnit
Jaxon Bennett
The match making points system is FUNDAMENTALLY FUCKED. You win a close, tight intense game and WIN NO POINTS. It ruins your high.
Adam Morgan
>tfw you've been autistically keeping track of about 30 new players you've come across in Standard >tfw you keep checking their account to see if they keep playing >tfw only one of them even broke 30 games

A win is a win. 3-2 has no business giving less than 3-0 if the team's are equally balanced.
Sebastian Phillips
You're probably used to systems that meaninglessly inflate your rating. If you can't take satisfaction in your play just stop playing multiplayer games, there are tons of single player games that will spout out meaningless increasing numbers at you.
Julian Reyes
tell me what's wrong with it
>i can't enjoy a video game unless numbers tell me i'm good >even when i win
Oliver Rodriguez
I told you before several times seems like you just have no ability to change your point of view even if everyone throw arguments in your fucking face

Brody Adams
So you have close to a 50% winrate in-grade and expect to move up fast?
Gavin Roberts
Naw you don't need get more for longer matches. Just the same. A win's a win. 3-2 has no business giving less than 3-0 if the teams are equally balanced.
