Esports did exist when it came out but not under the name esports... SC, CS1.6 etc had league play, diablo has never... Who is considered tier 2? I might be there already :blush: I havn't dueled enough people to even know my tier... Only people ive played against I was way out of my element. I can't say that I have lost to anyone who isnt atleast tier 1 or 2.
Even if I'm say a Tier 3, that means I'm one of the top pvpers... Because theres what? 5-10 tier 1's and like 10-20 tier 2's? In CSGO theres like 15 tiers and every tier has thousands of players. I don't know I just dont see d2 as a competitive game, was never really supposed to be which is my point. Anyone can pick it up in no time and become a tier 3/tier 2. You could play CSGO your whole life and you'll never even be in the top tiers, me for example... I used to be CEVO I and CAL I which would be considered like tier 2 in d2, and I still cant even get past DMG on matchmaking, theres like 5-6 tiers above DMG. Much higher skill ceiling.
theres 4 above dmg, i was sat on LEM after smth like 40 ranked games only
the actual ingame ranking system on csgo isnt accurate anyways, since you could just queue up with people and stomp games
it's way better to play faceit or some other sort of league to get a better gauge of how good you are
they're both different games in their own rights. d2 pvp is unique though, there isnt many games out there like it, if at all
