What kept Paladins alive for years wasn’t Hi-Rez, but its build system.
What are you talking about lol, Hi-Rez created the build system with cards. I believe Deadlock has a similar concept. This is just OW following suit.
I think Stadium will be fun, but what they don’t understand at Blizzard is the beautiful simplicity of OW1 is what makes the game so great. Its complexity was “within” that simplicity. Instead they go the other direction, adding more and more rules and parameters etc. Yes fun, but also tiresome, also devolving into generic strategy concepts.
