i dont get view on more then 10 is too many? most people play about 5+ matches a day.
and why would it be boring your still playing the same game regardless, it doesnt somehow dramatically change becuase your in a league! its just peoples egos get bigger. (the rank up effect) and they seem to think that just bc your in plat league or gold leag that your going to get better games (which we've already established throughout this thread that many people dont know what their doing and jammed their way into higher leagues)
Theres zero difference between playing more 10/20/30 games to get a placement and being in a league and playing the game...its just that you have a nice shiny medal on your profile...again the ranking up effect so common in games today.
and this is the reason why people get frustrated when they lose ... bc everyone wants to move up the leagues to get a new shiny medal
The more than 10 was for the placements, 5 is fine, 10 would be fine too, but anymore than that for placement matches would be far too much in my opinion. People want to get started in a league and start playing people that match their skill level as best they can.
theres every difference from playing 10/20+ placements than it is to playing in a league. I won all 5 of my palcements, got put in platinum, and continued winning and ended up in diamond, where people could beat me, and i could start getting better. You learn nothing from winning against rubbish players. The ego just gets fulfilled.
The higher up in the rankings you get, the better the standard of game is. thats why there is leagues in the ladder?? your statement doesnt make any sence.
From my view, i hate playing people in a lower league, its not fun for me unless its competetive. If theres no challenge then theres no point. but as i said, thats just my personality, im a competetive person so expect to be playing people the same level or better than me.
The people that get frustrated when they lose because they want their shiney new avatar, do tend to be the ones in the lower leagues. The avatars and achievs. are there for the lower league players to keep them interested. Higher end players, really don't give a damn, at the end of the day its epeen. it means nothing to people that can actually play.
I get frustrated when i lose purely because i don't like losing, but thats a competetive nature. a lot of people have it. you should see Kar rage once hes let my zerglings in his base for the 2nd game running ^^ hehe.
I rage even more when i accidentally run 24 lings into 2 banelings sitting outside my base ^^
