Announcing the One-Month Leagues (and Ambush/Invasion Challenge Winners)

Don't worry HC players you can alt-f4 all you want in a non hardcore league too and no one is gonna make you kill any scary map bosses, we know you haven't seen any of em before, its ok.

People should realise that this league is almost like a 1 month race, not a regular league. Races have been almost exclusively HC since GGG started doing them, so I don't see the reason why we shouldn't have an SC one for once. I personally like how it's not seperated, because if there weren't so many elitists, it'd attract more people.

If you're that desperate to prove how hardcore you are (more like how hardcore you're taking it in the asshole every morning if you need to prove that), you can just delete your character when you die and constantly update people with your 0 deaths screenshots.

My only complaint is that it isn't all the mods at once, I'd say it'd make for a more interesting experience.



We are not desperate to prove how hardcore we are. We just like to play hardcore leagues. So what? HC leagues and SC leagues are just diffrent in many ways (item progress; prices and much more... ). thats all.



As I said, you can play hardcore by deleting your character. That's as hardcore as the hardcore leagues as long as you don't need to prove that you're hardcore. Which you don't, so that's great and I see no problem. Also this is a 1 month league, it's not like the economy will get destroyed.


For sure it is a much diffrent economy in hc race than in a sc one. Even in a 1 month race. for sure!! And that makes the diffrence. To just delete the chracters dont fix that problem.
The one-month league being softcore only is a big let down. I'm personally not a hardcore player (connection issues and AMD optimization issues caused me too many deaths in invasion), but I loved watching players like Willywonka create hardcore builds. I'm pretty sure hes disappointed with softcore only as well. Lacking a hardcore league kills the hype a bit for me and I may take a month break this time.

I understand GGG's concerns of not having an invasion 2.0 with league difficulty, but these modifiers were pretty fair in the past, and they could just straight up copy it into hardcore and people would be happy.

But on the league itself, I think its kindof cool how ambush boxes are only available for 4 days. Gotta hardcore map those 4 days and hope for those cartographer's boxes.
Finally the hardcore format isnt forced on us because a small loud portion of the player base prefers it.
I don't understand only 1 thing.

Why can't GGG run two leagues with the same properties, but one SC and one HC ? Why are we forced to play SC ?

Can people stop saying "delete your character it's the same thing"

it's not even close, you are at inherent disadvantage vs every other player because they can just farm with 1000hp and all magic finding gear.

It's not the same.
No hc ====> uninstall the game

Too bad that all the people who quit Invasion after 2-3 weeks (that was like 80% of the Invasion player base) have to wait another month to play a non vanilla league again.

I feel you bros.

Why can't we co-exist? Why does it have to be one-or-the-other? When there are no 4 month leagues running, why are we fighting for a 1 or 0?

Can we just be tolerant and both have a "league of thier own?"

/sigh
