RaizQT once made SSF League within perandus league so i think that community just should play SSF this time.

I will definately play solo self found from the beginning just for pure fun :)

RaizQT did SSF, so everyone should play SSF.

Great argument, but - how about no?

@all those people crying.

If you need someone to make you play ssf you are the problem.

If you don't care about mtx prizes but bitch about it on the forums you are the problem.

If you can't make a mf toon that crushes content and makes loot rain like candy then you can always follow a guide. Hec I made over 300 ex last flashback league and didnt run a single map. NO I'm not a trader/flipper; I just converted alts/chromes to chaos and chaos to ex and used the chaos recipe.

And for the record I played a flame totem build. :D

You don't trade or flip yet you converted alts, chromes and chaos up to 300ex during a one month flashback, through the chaos recipe???

Let's ignore that it's impossible to convert chaos to exalted without trading...

Assuming the conversion is 40c = 1ex (erring on the low side):

300 * 40 = 12000

...so let's assume you found 30c a day just from playing (which is a bit on the high side, I think)

30c * 30 days = 900 found chaos

12000 - 900 - 11100

11100 / 30 days = 370

...meaning you're running the chaos recipe 370 times per day.

370 / 16 (hours played in a day) = 23.13 times per hour


...so at a minimum, you're running the chaos recipe about once every 3 minutes -- if you play 16 hours a day, every day, for the entire league.

Yeah...I should take anything you say seriously.

Sees 25% of the league time is Beyond.


Big Nope.

I like the flashbacks, but man I wish there had been an option to go self-found AND the flashbacks. A ton of people hate self-found here by the sounds of it, but not the large majority, just the whiniest one. People want this to be difficult, and trading just takes away 90% of that difficulty. The funny part is those same self-found-haters mostly say how self-found ruins the "fairness" because some people will get lucky. Those same people still get just as lucky with trading, but now they will also get rich fast instead of being forced to make a build around that lucky drop, like is INTENDED in these sorts of competitions.

Am I getting this right, that the league starts at May 7th, 4am German time ?

Nope. It's already displayed in your (our) local time - given you actually logged in from Germany. It's May 6th, at 10pm (22:00 Uhr).

League was determined before polls

Good Job GGG for manipulating your Polls so you are sure SSF doesnt win.

This poll is an illusion exile!

Illusion of choice

What the heck is wrong with you people? Would you mind taking off your tin foil hat for a second and think again?

Would you mind taking off your fanboy glasses?

its pretty obvious that they didnt wanted SSF to win and did everything to avoid it while giving the illusion that it was an option

I dont hate GGG for this, i do the same with my customers when i prefer something over another, give em the illusion they have a choice but push toward one choice

Honestly this is another slap in the face for SSF players. GGG puts SSF against the super popular ruckus mode, SSF of course loses (barely, 38% vs 50%), so now we are getting no SSF league again. Why not put up a third option with both SSF and ruckus combined? Because it would easily win the poll?

I honestly don't understand why GGG hates SSF players.

As I stated in the poll post: The solo league should be a completely different vote: it's not comparable to content.

Should the 2 week league have:
A. Parties Disabled (Solo only)
B. Parties Enabled (Groups)

Everyone would have the common interest in additional content via flashback, that is content, the solo league is not.

The fact that "solo mode" got that many votes when going against "Content rich" should be enough to wake some sleepy GGG heads up...

+1

Wont play this now.

Why argue over ssf that much? It's just a 2 week challenge league not permanent. Anyway, please don't do flashback again next time， we just have that not long ago.

Also don't forget that during Raiz's SSF league (that had no rewards, no publicity from GGG, no insurance that people didn't cheat, and because of those reasons weaker competition) PoE was killing it on twitch with 5k+ viewers every day since every PoE streamer was going hard at it (plus it attracted some popular D3 streamers as well). Imagine how popular it would be with GGG supporting it with rewards/promotion, the guarantee that there are no cheaters, the harder competition that results from having higher population. It would be huge for PoE.

Please SSF haters face the facts: The SSF ladder race is much more interesting than the trading one. It attracts more streamers, more viewers, more competitive players. We aren't asking for GGG to replace the trading leagues with SSF ones. We just want some 1-2 week SSF events (with rewards) every few months to quench our thirst.

This is another missed opportunity by GGG.
