quitting the league

short version

tired of seeing all scarabs being priced around t17 at a high expense

ground loot is dead without scarabs or a strat for t17

not every average joe has time to be playing 6-16 hours a day just to make enough for 10 t16 "juiced" with proper scarabs

They're not going to change the game for you.

Sounds like you do need to come up with better farming strategies on your own and not just pick the latest introduced strategy showcased by streamer xyz only to end up all surprised that the prices for the strategy skyrocket up in price.

game is balanced around streamers sorry dude

Just run ships all day for pirate invasions for power/mountain/time runes.

Couldn't play this league.
How's the new trade system, should it go core?
It seems like something I'd enjoy.

So everyone who gets their stuff done while also working a full time job is considered as streamer?

When you do trade, its instant, painless, exactly what trade should be. You focus on playing the game instead of trading, which should be the point.

They did make it dependent on farming gold, however at some point it gets pretty stupidly easy so not a big deal.

Time to do this for the rest of trade.

Anyone advocating for the current system, I think they either (1) dont trade, which is like Chris of GGG - not in touch with the game at all, or SSF people, or (2) exploiting the system of trade and profiting off their ability to deal with annoying, awful, unimmersive gameplay that most players don't want to.

Neither of those are great arguments/positions to intentionally annoy your playerbase for "the vision".

Imho, it's pretty amazing. Trading has never felt so easy and flawless. At the league start I made 50c for my starting gear in like 2 minutes by just selling stuff in very small bulks - a few Vaal orbs, a few Regrets, some Scarabs etc. With the current trade you can hardly sell currency until you accumulated a decent bulk, and no one will trade with you for 2 Vaal Orbs.

The only downside is that when selling bigger bulks the transaction can cost several thousand of gold. The amount itself is not super huge since you can get it in a few red maps. It's just that you are basically taking away from developing/operating your town.
