don't expect you to understand that off screen spamming and using facets to cheese in a mirror matchup has nothing to do with skill, ty opinion

There are levels to this game, junior.

If you are going to bring a sloppy build against me, you are 100% getting punished for that. No matter what matchup.

lol you had 8 facets more than last time we dueled. i didnt notice till 3-0 and u had no common courtesy to let me know nor offer a restart - i literally even said "maybe my bo ran out" but you were silent.
at that point i really didnt care to duel s1 just looking for the cheap win

svs is about fun and the community. you are obv neither

imagine getting lectured by someone who has namelocked less times in an entire mirror tourney than she has fingers

Namelocks won't get you far at the highest level, junior. Stay in your lane.

Ethreain has been TKO'd.

The finals are:

Guys, you have already beaten everyone that did not register for this tournament or who did not get this far. While I see it as normal for competitive players to get vocal, ultimately the idea is for everyone to have fun. If at all possible I would ask you to bring it down a notch in the thread, arrange a time for the match, contact me (or post here) with the details and ideally share screen via discord so interested parties can watch / we can stream the finals.

I dont know either one of you well enough so its up to you two - do you want a referee for this match or not ? ( I would borrow from the pool of referee's in D2Arena or a mutually agreed 3rd party ). I would also ideally have stream the finals if he is willing.

given that this guy is freely admitting to doing nothing but off screen spamming yes i would like a ref. i'll stop replying to his baits now sorry. i will try to make any time that Chad proposes that the ref can also make.

yes ok.

can you propose any time/day in the next 2-3 days, else an alternate time/date?

the whole point is that hes overly defensive with no skill. i even warned you about this when i first dueled him .
not to mention its a pretty cheap shot changing your build to facets without a heads up in the semi finals
i didnt post my recorded duel in here cuz i just didnt care much to start drama, but not hes priding and ima chime in.

A blizz sorc build, at all dueling brackets in the game, is naturally more passive, or defensive, then a FB sorc. Its the nature of the build. Does anyone disagree with this view ?
In terms of facets it behooves all players to consider whether their blizz sorc opponent is using mass facets or not. Does anyone disagree with this view ?

The issue as I see it currently is 2-fold. 1, players are expressing dissatisfaction in the topic (normal in competitive play) and 2, there is a real concern that offscreen play will dominate the finals. I have asked the players to dial it down to mitigate (1) and we will get a referee to mitigate (2).
