The New Chat Restriction in The Feast

[Cordie]

there's 3 of them? wouldn't even notice - they looked the same to me (Kirin clones or whatever). I only got some items for future glams and desynth fodder..

Not a big fan of the Feast since its "free chat" days, as GMs would repeatedly neglect their responsibilities. Meanwhile, I did prefer the Frontlines, when we still had proper 24-player matches rather than the current 72 ice rush.
Since the patch I've only tried 8v8 (it's the only mode that pops now (!?)), but seeing the chat is removed I would be more than willing to try 4v4/solo again... no 10-line sound effect macro spam, no trash-talking because X player thinks we must give a **** about their ranking, none of this.

No, Dimitrii, this isn't joking: if you can't follow something as simple as a mark "attack this"/"bind/cc this" or even without these, ppl not paying attention to enemy CD usage/availability (I've seen way too many Silvers and Golds too failing hard at this, mind you), no amount of free chat will save your "strategy" or "tactics".. and "high levels of play" lol pls it's just a MOBA -it's not chess.
Anyways, I think I'll mark my initial response to Lorelei as off-topic, b/c this is getting derailed.
