-44? No no, no negative numbers here. That represents INT_MAX-43.

It's gonna be weird seeing a battlegrounds streamer play arena, wonder if he'll understand the nuances of this more complex mode.

[@jesserobertson808]

Personally I think he might be, let’s see, I have a quote here...”a drooling noob”

[@DonFreeq]

It's not anymore most complex mode since bucket system removal. It's actually opposite. Arena is dead.

[@MrFarmerWiesiu]

DonFreeq arena is better without bucket system

[@DonFreeq]

@@MrFarmerWiesiu Sure it's better bro, sure. Just tell me why than 9 out of 10 hard infiniters thinks differently. They suppose to know mode better than others aren't they? If you are at least soft infinity we can discuss otherwise just take it for granted.

[@DonFreeq]

You mean drolling noob mode... I see. Arena WAS a f2p Hearthstone, now it's only for drolling noobs unfortunately. Bucket system removal destroyed everything.

[@pastorlul2384]

@@BlazinCroco it's not that boring, it's just not rewarding.

[@DonFreeq]

@@BlazinCroco Bro whoever whatever likes. For some people battlegrounds is fun for others boring. Give a chance for others to pick their cup of tea. It's obviously less rewarding in theory than arena but it might not be. Infiniters doesn't play mode anymore which means sth. You may play arena now but you should be aware that you playing against teams 2 suit or maybe even juniors. That's with addition of extreme rng compared to standard makes mode for drolling noobs right now. I played arena for years, have 7.8 lifetime avg and i know what i'm talking xd

[@DonFreeq]

@人へんたい I would disagree. Arena state is now as bad as ever was, you can't say it's only due to lack of spells. True is there is couple factors and spells are somewhere on the list indeed but personally I'm convinced that bucket system is top 1 reason. I guess you still regular there - do you know any active infiniter? I used to know plenty, but right now i can't recall a single dude. I really feel almost nobody left in that haunted house.

[@DonFreeq]

@人へんたい Yeah let's say 1,5 year ago there wasn't bucket system but back than coefficients where manually done while after removing bucket system Blizz haven't touched them almost at all. Still we have for example tripple legendary rate which was direct technical result of that removal and they still didn't fixed it as i know. There is more of those of course. They don't pay any attention to arena right now and without bucket system which is sort of automatic balance tool many things have to be done manually which of course aren't happening. Nope. Most dedicated doesn't play at all and it doesn't have that much common with BG. BG is just nail in the coffin not a primary reason. It's of course great we have it otherwise many of us would leave HS till new expansion. I'm not even sure if you can say "less" - i would call it rather final exodus.Very good arena players just doesn't play arena anymore. Simple as that. My guess is that in comparison to year back there is like 1-3% of those left right now. It's that bad... and i'm not exaggerating. My personal experience - year ago i had on friend list like 20-30 arena specialists as good or better than Kripp. In june/july there were still around 10 left. Once bad patches came and bucket system removal none of them is playing arena. They didn't even necessary switched to BG. Similar story with people who were somewhat weaker like in 5.0-6.5 range. Zero.I only see players who i know are quite weak at arena. Sucks. Btw. what's your lifetime - you catch into softinfiniters?

I peed a lot when I saw second woecleaver

[@DonFreeq]

Noone fucking cares about arena anymore, only drolling noobs. 90% of all heavy gunners left it after bucket system had been removed - was already bad before - and battlegrounds was nail in the coffin. Arena now is occupated by people who in normal times would have avg. 4.5 and lower and it's even more rng than in battlegrounds. No pleasure to play at all.

[@LittleBee143]

@@DonFreeq chill out the expansion is comming like tomorrow, its gonna change

[@DonFreeq]

@@LittleBee143 It won't change i assure you, but no biggie I got used to it already - read stopped playing arena ^^ I admit though that at first it seriously pissed me off. What can you do - sth ends, sth starts. Maybe one day we will be back to arena.

[@alterworlds1629]

I saw bits and pieces of this arena a while back: The Draft, and a few matches deep in the run. I thought this was like, 85 points of a deck. No way the -44 on Varian was correct for this deck during draft, but the draft assistant is more what you call guidelines than rules anyways. The real score for picking that Varian was more like 300+, it was monstrously disgusting in this deck, in many cases winning the second it was played.

[@MrShukaku1991]

I'm pretty sure Stormwind must be paying the North Sea a lot of money because those armies of stormwind are pretty broken.

[@Jackelsrule]

6 of the games were decided 2 turns into playing Wrynn. I think the score dropped so much cause of the second Woecleaver it wasn't that low when it was offered with the 2nd. Yes Kripp was right about what he said when picking Wrynn.

[@TheCrimsonChin91]

Great commentary, nice arena run, and the cut looking fresh in the intro! Was fun looking back at the 2019 blizzcon conversation, here we are 2 years later: battlegrounds is Kripp's main game, D4 is nowhere in sight, and blizzard is shitting the bed in every possible way.

Hey, you keep cutting Kripp off when he's starting to talk about interesting things! Stahp, I wanna listen!

[@TheDanthok]

Any criticism of Diablo 3 was cut out it seemed. Censoring at work.

[@Phhase]

@@TheDanthok Wat? Why would they do that?

[@sabaoz]

i don't think its censoring. It's more like bad editing. It was as if the editor only looked at the visual cues and completly ignored the audio. Suffice to say i did not like that. I'm watching Kripp not only for the game itself, but also to listen to him and hear him talk - listening to him getting interrupted again and again and trying to follow multiple uncomplete sentences in a row was a BAD experience. Was especially worst at around 44:00 EDIT: i get that this already is a 1 hour and 24 minutes video, and Kripp "rambling" around for 10 minutes about the PoE/Diablo3 comparison might have bloated it. Also it's not "bad" editing per se. Still, cutting him off like this made it hard for me to keep watching. I cannot relax when the audio is jumbled like this and my brain has to refocus over and over because what is said is incomplete. It's stressfull!

[@TheDanthok]

​@@sabaoz I see what you are saying but this is the only video of Kripp's where I have ever seen editing like this and it just so happens to be when he is talking about Blizzard IP. Be interested to hear someone's opinion that watched the livestream.

[@sabaoz]

@@TheDanthok it also cuts off when he tells a not blizzard-related story later.

[@Shooshawali]

I know what you mean about flying into LAX. When I head to Cali in January, I’m specifically stopping over in Phoenix first just so that I can get closer to my destination by landing in Santa Ana once I’m in California. It’s a nightmare I agree. Like 4 hours to go 10 miles!!
