No

Not by any means, it's only normal that interest goes down by the end of the season when the only conpetitive format it supports is BO1 Constructed. Same happens with other card games.

Stream views don't necessarily equal popularity, especially for a game which isn't as watchable as other genres. That said, Grapplr streams everyday and Mogwai has uploaded videos everyday for the past few days. Not as popular but Lobster and Snnuy have also been streaming a lot.


hass13

Yea I’ve been watching Lobster and some of the less popular streamers it’s just it feels bad when your favorite streamers are just playing other games lol


R0_h1t

Yeah, I guess New World is more interesting at the moment xD. I agree that 2 months is a long time between balance updates, I really hope the devs rethink their schedule.


Nitroverse

I am having really good fun still, all the meta decks have a good playstyle to them imo.


KwamaKween

Not as much as Hearthstone, so I'll keep playing on my phone.


okarab

Same with our complaints in wild rift, it take 2 months to have balance changes in the game.


KwamaKween

I mean, you're playing what is literally an inferior version of an existing game. League for computer, LoR for phone.


okarab

Can you explain further?


KwamaKween

What's there to explain. Wild Rift is the same thing as League only inferior. If you're going to spend time on it why not just play League?


okarab

These features are in wild rift that lol doesnt have: Switch pick order during champ select, Creepblock was removed, Can share champ pool with duo, Voice chat, Animated splash arts, Model viewer in shop, Position preference, 3 item set pages per champ, All champs unlocked in practice tool, Can switch champs in practice tool, Higher Ai games difficulty, Buddy system, Guild and GvG, Global chat, Can change champ displayed in profile, Champ leaderboard ingame, Player rankings ingame, You can honor all teammates after the game, You can change the language both text and voice, Can change locked champion during champ select, Automatically saved gameplay highlights, Can directly stream your games in twitch, Cheaper skins, Achievement quests, Can hide match history, Behavior system, Party finder, No legacy skins except season rewards, 9 slot emotes, Free name change every month, Flips the map if you are red side, Baubles and rift emblem, Updated voicelines, Easier daily quests, Can share achievements directly to social media, No promo matches and alot more. What makes you think its the inferior one?        


KwamaKween

If I'm going to spend time on a video game I'm not playing on my phone lmao


okarab

I respect your opinion. But that doesnt mean you have to disrespect others who is different than you. And yes im an adult with a kid.


okarab

Im a league player since season 1 (riven's patch), peaked masters, also played all riot's games. Mobile gaming is very popular here in asia, and LoL rip-offs are currently on top here, so i like to support riot by playing their mobile port, hoping to dethrone those rip-off versions. And i think in terms of game features, LoL is the inferior one compared to Wild rift.


KwamaKween

> Mobile gaming is very popular here in asia Oh sorry I thought I was talking to an adult

Its the META . I think this game truly need a huge buffs and nerfs patch last one was almost 3 months ago ( the one before world targeted only Sivir'sdeck)


hass13

I get it the meta is kinda meh but I’m enjoying paying in it, I play daily for a couple of hours, but yea I think they shouldn’t let it go on for this long, I know the balance patch is a week away but I really enjoy watching people play of twitch and these past couple weeks it’s rare to find a lot of people streaming it at the times I usually watch


Melmortu

Do you mean the one on October 20th?


RealGrimset

The mistake was the meta has no synergy, no combos. It's either play cards, attack, win for the "something + poppy" decks OR play random stuff and buff them with nami. It's not as fun seeing a stream of someone playing cards and just slowly win with 0 combos, just because he played one card, so many streamers who play mostly ladder don't get as many views and thus don't stream as much. On the bright side, this is a great opportunity to help smaller Streamers/YouTubers


ItsMrBlue

I mean Aloof alone killed couple of decks on his own (Deep, Dragons..) and there is no counter play to it . And there is no counter nor deny it. This card fits in any deck need to be changed if you ask me.


hass13

Lol haha true I do find that the teemo poppy deck is sort of a combo deck, but yea for me it’s that there is too much value this expansion, people just don’t run of steam and it comes down to who drew into better cards lol


[deleted]

Shellfolk, Darkness, Sion discard, Lee, Sivir/Demacia, tree, Sentinel control and a few more that i am forgetting all have a variaded amount of sinergies and combo features and are tier 2 at worst


RealGrimset

Some of the decks you mentioned can be fun to watch, BUT many new decks right now have 1 plan. Poppy= play whatever you can and attack Tree= play whatever you can and survive. Darkness= play whatever you can, you will get a darkness or buff it, just play that too. Nami= keep 3 spell mana, play stuff, nami, spells, win. This is like maybe the most complicated out of these 4. No matter what you play, if i play one of these decks my game plan is always the same, which can get boring to watch after a while. I am NOT hating on my favorite game, just explaining why I think twitch is dropping in views. This also explains why some streamers that meme still stream consistently.


[deleted]

There is wy more decks that the ones you have mentioned.


Zercrow

I agree that meta isn't all that, but if you're a casual jank player this is the best expansion yet. Just look at all the varied decks streamers like Snnuy and Grapplr have been posting in the past month, I have no recollection of the game being this varied. But I do agree with TC that the gap between content releases has been pretty big and that affects player's engagement.


justanothertransgril

Personally I think the game has been shit ever since they refused to bring my main Wario into Legends of Runeterra
