Don't you ever get bored of not having to build your characters back up again? Non-ladder is a bunch of elitists flaunting the same shit they've had for 8 years IMO... What do you find appealing about NL?


Well obviously there's a higher level of play on nl thus "elitists" thanks for proving my point the appeal is people who are actually good

But isn't ladder building the same characters that you've played year after year? It's really no different. Both sides are repetitive with the same end result. Not to mention, isn't your post a flaunt regardless? It must be embarrassing shitting on yourself trying to shit on others.

Well, honestly the kinda vibe I get from the NL players is reminiscent to how it feels being surrounded by your old high school buddies at the bars when you visit your parents for the holidays... just talkin about the old glory days and that tackle they made that one time and how quick they pinned that kid from xyz school. Except they don't have to remember, they're still keeping themselves stuck there with that one character they made that one time and will never stop playing. I can understand the appeal. I really can. I totally prefer ladder and gave away all my NL gear. I really just was trying to understand what draws you to holding such strong opinions both for NL and against ladder.

Well, the players I refer to as elitists are the ones that have items that are literally unobtainable to anyone that hasn't played this game continuously since it's release or bought them for an obscene amount of money. How do you know that they have items that are literally unobtainable? Oh, they WILL tell you. And they'll tell you that their items are worth more than your life and your entire family. Many, many people on NL say those exact words. It seems to me like these people are not willing to challenge themselves. It's not that they don't want to. They've all tried. Every time they get rekt and don't feel like gods anymore, they ragequit ladder preaching it's evils and return to NL where they feel safe.

You care way too deeply. I just pointed out your fallacy. That's all.

Are you actually capable of providing any tangible basis to anything you just said, or would you prefer to just post memes and pander to the lowbrow clowns in every post like you always do? I really would like you to challenge yourself and to grow as a person.

Ladder is for racing & profiting. non ladder is where the better duelers have always been. Everybody knows this.

Why are they better? Because they have played continuously for 17 years and have items that are no longer obtainable? Any other reasons? Were they just born to play d2? lol
