I really didn’t think it was that bad, I still landed good stomps and won.

I’ve always gone for good stomps and never spammed so I really didn’t notice a huge difference was still fun

honestly it should be pretty much impossible to not notice a huge difference if you are aggressively stomping, the biggest advantage you can get from a single stomp is 2 fbs. tele spamming+projectile spamming is king

Tbh only thing I’ve noticed is I’ve lost a few stomps I usually wouldn’t, just gottta be careful and gtfo when you think you are going to lose or stomp hop it.

I still think it didn’t kill SvS, I never spammed and always stomped and felt it was fine tbh but that’s just me.

Aggressive spam is still spam. I probably don’t see more fbs from anyone other than you, but yours is less annoying because it’s less far away. But that’s kind of the point in your first paragraph. If you spam a ton and land some hits prior to stopping, sure you’ll win your stomp because of life advantage, but that’s not the skillful part of how svs used to have a skill gap and surely nobody thinks spamming is skillful. If you’re down on life at all to someone, u just can’t be aggressive at all or you’ll get out traded assuming they don’t just stop shooting.

pretty much this, if you wait until you get a life advantage through fb spam before you stomp you will do fine in this meta. being rewarded for an unexpected aggro stomp/fast namelock is not really happening cause you're just as likely to lose the trade or go even if you don't have pre-fire or a hp advantage

Run away and shoot has always been a tactic. There’s no longer a skillful, offensive minded tactic. There were times u didn’t have to l8z and play overly defensive when down life, u could land a good stomp with a prefire and fhr your opponent and win with barely any life. Now landing spam is more advantageous than ever and things like upspam, upspam trains, and off screen spam fighting is about the only “tactic”. Really it’s been this way since d2r started but the latest patches have amplified it. D2r killed pvp

dont get rid of it, we are going to revamp this ladder again :P





its true, but at the same time i see it as another element of the game to adapt too, and might open up to more tactics than just chaining all the time :P


any interest in trying a d2ga svs ladder again? think pailess started the last one before it puttered out
