Thread: The Feast - 4.3 Updates!

I don't think S8 will get much interest if you don't fix S7 issues or actually address feedback whilst pre-season is active (and proactively implement changes during it, not after). People kite at the end because it's hard to stay ahead due to light medals, if you dominate you're at a disadvantage. Remove light medals and it'll be less of an issue, because the better team will probably win earlier anyway. I can't think of how you'd fix it either, if you do something stupid like throw everyone in the middle of the map and restrict the fight zone for the last minute that's going to seriously annoy people, especially in conjugation with light medals. By addressing the situation I hope it's more why we do it than actually thinking this is the problem with feast (which would furthermore show how little you actually understand your own game). People are sitting again because it isn't worth the effort and customs are now more fun than ranked.

You're also still extremely quiet about Light Party, which was hyped so much and then mysteriously vanished.

Aqua you know better than this. It's hard to kill the game against light medals, so you kite. Because if you don't and actually try to fight back it only takes one cc chain on your healer or misposition and all of a sudden the game is 17 medals in their favour, bearing in mind all of you will take far more damage than they will, so you'll get smoked by a Lloydbreak in culling or something. I know we've always done it even before light medals, but it's just common sense to play defensive rather than risk a throw.
