The game is more popular than ever!

Now when Blizzard has fixed their API rankedftw is working properly again.

Currently the number of 1v1 games per day is the highest it has ever been during the last 4 years.

Not bad for a dead game.

Shout out to covid-19 for saving esports. Balance team might even manage to get to Plat league now, as long as they refuse to play as Toss (which we know they will).

LOL, historical records show that after the Black Death -Yersina Pestis that wiped between 40-60% of population in Medieval Europe due to the manpower shortages a lot of bargaining-power was gained for the common-people.
Hardly any sane person would advocate a Plague for solving problems in society…
Considering that sociopaths tend to capture the wealth/power you never know.

Why would the sociopaths do this?!

I would disagree, because it’s only becuase of covid-19, rankedftw shows 200k players, a year ago it was 250k, 3 years ago 450k…

Fixed that for you Playa

I would. Plagues and depopulation are great. Too many people, too much competition.

Too much resource expenditure.

I am not interested in bringing Death, but Renewal.

The world is too crowded, it needs a Tabula Rasa event.

for power, at others expense, pretending to save them. For example, look at the US ? Both of their parties have lots of these.

You forgot a Kappa at your title.

I was just thinking, since the Covid19 emergency has started in Italy, esports have shown to be the safiest sports around in this kind of situations.
