Good luck convincing a bunch of no-lifers who dedicated their lives to streaming this game. that’s how the meta gets solved fast, as well.
You can’t trick a millenial who is in his competitive mode. He’ll stop at nothing until he proves it and we only need 1 to prove it for the rest of us to accept it and act accordingly.
In this day and age, those with a motivation to hide the truth literally just spam something like this in a desperate attempt to suppress that truth until the plain and simple evidence that has been there the whole time becomes a deafening roar that can no longer be ignored.
Which is why “conspiracy theory” is just now a placeholder for “tomorrow’s headline” and has lost all it’s power. And those who use it are now suspect. Especially when deploying it early and often.
Read the patent folks, then compare it to what you’ve seen yourself, and what others have posted. Then ask yourself who are you going to believe: the scrummy mega corp with a track record of lying, putting profits above everything else, and those claiming it wouldn’t use the tech it patented nearly a decade ago…or your lying eyes?
Bro, it can’t possibly be implemented in its’ original form on HS. There are no “items” you can buy from shop which give you any kind of advantage over a certain matchup, and that includes skins, hero skins and whatever else is left. It even includes card packs xD
Some other version of it, perhaps, but only in theory.
Imagine they did it with legendaries and titans and are now in a habit of matching up 2 almost equal opponents but where the one who spent more has a statistical edge (slight advantage in win rate and advantage in deck countering). That would be an almost exact analog to the patent.
What happens next? people realize the rule of thumb that the more legendaries and titans you own, the higher your win rate is. So that “truth” would start circulating until it’s easily disproven with data.
It is, in fact, only true to a small extent. If it was really true, best decks would cost much more than the average cost of decks. We’re not talking 1-2-3 leggos anymore, or even 5-6-7, we’re talking 20-30.
So no matter how hard I try to imagine a parallel universe in which your paranoid delusions were in fact true, that universe collapses almost instantly to a nonsense.
Made up nonsensical claims to handwave the clear and plain wording of the patent, like every denier would be more accurate.
But keep pretending the company who was literally forcing their own employees between paying rent and eating that they aren’t using something that has been covered by multiple news articles already.
And let’s not forget the other one employed by those trying to suppress the truh:
by established fact.
“Don’t believe the plain wording of the patent folks! It’s impossible for it to be implemented in the ways you’ve seen it be implemented exactly as they have said it would!”
Apparently, you haven’t been reading the thread.
But for those who have, remember:
Nothing. 50 years of scummy mega corps, cartels and their bought and paid for politicians at a minimum scamming people, and at worst slowly killing them says says otherwise.
I’m afraid you’re just missing some education, research and thinking about morals. That, a few standard deviations higher IQ and, if possible, little less delusional cognition should suffice.
Even cartels have a role to play in our civilization. Cartel is a form of cooperative arrangement taught in economic classes all around the world, meant for maintaining high prices at a given production level, thus restricting competition.
Similar with “mega corps” which are basically just the most efficient money making machines we know in capitalism. Trends in capitalist evolution have historically included both the rise of mega corps and their fall (actually happening now with more and more focus being placed on small and middle entreprenuers). Its’ existence is an inevitability, so shouldn’t even be attempted to reason moralistically/ethically at all.
Paying for politicans? Are you serious? That’s literally how they operate. It’s their highest source of financing for everything and one of the best metrics of their efficiency.
To even attempt at discussing ethics and morals, you should first learn some basic things about the world you live in.
Oh and, you should talk to your mental health operator to begin work on your paranoid ideations and delusions. Sure, the world needs people like that, too, to watch over our heads in case we become too complacent about covering our grounds, but their blessings also come with a curse, one which can be debilitating at the present time we live ni.
A couple more points for those who might have missed it:
And where are we right now? Recently dealing with the aftermath of a ton of actiblizz bots in standard. But wait, they literally just said it had no application there!
How interesting that for anyone else with a standard loadout, they’d potentially wind up in a crappy map. Good thing someone paid to win!
And from there, one can see how that applies to other games, because they only used the shooting genre as an EXAMPLE.
Says the person posting:
remember those criminals selling drugs serve an important role in scoiety!
enron, and the 2008 crash say hi.
Remember folks, because they do it, that makes it ok.
“Remember folks, the patent is a delusion and paranoia!”
-t. denier
Enron was a case about cowardice and anxiety of dealing with negative results which are inevitable. Also, lack of conscientiousness about long-term future and sustainability of their false reporting and creative accounting. Nothing immoral there. They thought they were saving tens of thousands of employees from losing their jobs and many more people from losing their supplier, but in the end, they became case studies for new managers to remember what to avoid.
But if you try to be “moral”, you’re supposed to be fully transparent, and that’s not something which works in reality. People don’t want to know the full truth. They need you to shelter them from it if at any means possible. If you tell honestly when you think recession is coming, you will single-handedly cause the run on the banks and the crisis. How’s that moral?
Besides, every bad case study is good from another perspective - it opened our eyes about our lack of governance and control over accounting reporting.
Similar thing with the crash. The closest you can find to pin that fiasco on are Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, NGO-s basically who showed complacency and overconfidence despite people suggesting them other ways to look at the CDO-s, swaps and other dangerous financial innovations. It’s root causes also included lack of governance and control over banks and insurance companies. It also included the overly optimistic and lackluster approach to finances of majority of common people who bought into that right before it crashed. I see nothing immoral in all of that. All I see is lessons for the future - which is the true definition of morals.
But if overconfidence is immoral, then you should have already been burnt on a stake.
But I’m the kind of guy who thinks that “too big to fail” is synonymous with “too big to reform,” and that a little bit of recession in the short term is much preferable to keeping corporations that deserved to die decades ago perpetually alive, like zombies. Necronomics. Better to accept a little pain now than cause a much greater pain later.
And that’s the funny thing about cowardice. I don’t think that the problem is being scared. I think the problem is being scared of the short term thing, and not being scared enough about the long term thing. Fear is good actually, and cowardice is more about failing to think things out long term.
That’s an easy one to answer. Those same players play HS as a job. They stream for long periods of time daily. The rest of us just make legend for the rewards and to keep our star bonus. After that it’s just for fun and to do weekly/daily quests.
