WoW E-sports was better before...

"This is cata right?"
Giant deathwing across every wall.
I want to be a gladiator. Cata classic is my time, my frontal lobe is developed.
Good luck bro lol. i hit 2400 back in cata and i dont even want to imagine the level of sweat thats going to jump into classic.
Play Resto shaman. It was my first glad and I got it every season. S9: Shadowplay, s10: RLS, S11: LSD2.0, RLS, WLS
@@_AriseChicken thanks man, I’m a gamer I got it. I enjoy the sweat.
@@TheOriginalCameron that’s funny I planned on focusing my arena gameplay on a rsham. I thought it would be easiest, my other chars are Dk and spriest.
@@jobozo99 dk/ret/disc or rsham good. spriest is best in season 9 and goes down from there.
wasn't this the absolute tragic tourney from byron, which he explained in detail how devastating it was? giving up r1 to go to this tourney with new mates and how unlucky the situation with cdews team 😢😓 rest in paradise man, nobody deserved the title blizzcon champ more. 😩
Broooo that was heartbreaking. I urge people to watch Reckful's version of it but so many things had to go horribly wrong for him to end up in that situation. He literally cried on stream just recounting it after he was so excited to tell the story to begin with.
So basically, he had the highest rated team with Benniez and Chrysalid. Blizz did a rating squish mid season which made it nearly impossible to find anyone to queue into so he couldnt practice. Didnt matter tho, they played the qualifier on the tournament realm and got top 8 which qualified them for NA regionals only losing to EG (cdew, talbadar and azael). Despite qualifying, his teammates were so socially awkward that they did not want to play at a live event, so he left his team and joined the 2nd highest rated team playing the same comp replacing Neilyo, a good friend of his at the time. So he got that team to rank 1 while they were practicing but couldnt get the Ruthless title himself because of that antiquated antiboosting "must play 30% of games" rule they had at the time.
So they went to regionals and all they needed to do was get top 2 to qualify for Blizzcon and they'd get so much more time to practice together because we're talking less than 2 weeks of playing together here from qualifiers to lan event.
At regionals, they dropped to the lower bracket against Cdew's team, which was the only team that could beat them at the time. Then Cdew's team faced Snutz, Pookz, and Toez' team in the upper bracket AND LOST SOMEHOW, dropping down to the lower bracket and eliminating Reckful's team Complexity. Cdew, Talb, and Azael then went on to beat Snutz' team, the one they lost to earlier, in back to back series going 6-0. If they had won the first time, Reckful would have probably made it out of lower bracket and finished top 2 to make it to Blizzcon.
Thats some history for ya.
@@bos7522 He cried because he was depressed. The truth is 99,9% of people would consider themselves lucky to have these kinds of problems
@@user-nz4un6se7y shut up and don't speak for him, thanks. 🙂
Yeah, the tourny that broke reckful
3:00 passion indeed, we used to track everything in our heads, every win was huge n felt well rewarded when it worked
high risk high reward moments
I used to duel Reckful for hours on Asherons Call in the early 2000s before he became famous. He went by Anti Parazi back then, crazy memories… 😢
It was time of 16yo top players. Now time of 30+ yo top players. And thats a major difference.
Remember people using stopwatch for DR timers lol.
would love to see the vods from this tournament, especially byron's, if anyone has been able to find them.
the good ole days man fuck
0:47 Woundman at the back.
0:27 Snutz, Pookz, Toez.
I have this feeling with Football..
I know we just have had a great era with Messi and C7 when they were on Spain... but I'm talking the era before that...
The era with Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Xavi, Iniesta, Zidane, Roberto Carlos, Beckham etc etc. There was something different back then. Maybe it's just nostalgia.
absolutely. loved football back then. now i dont care at all
it could be nostalgia. I think it also has to do with back in the day the scene was just coming up, and the future was bright. Fast forward 15+ years and you know what the reality is. That it was never going to be bright because every org was only out for profit, and when the prospect of money dried up they abandoned it. Now esports are a shell of what they were, except in Korea. Nobody really cares anymore because everyone knows it leads nowhere.
it only is good in korea because there was money to be made there. their culture values games more and thus more money to be made. if the korean esports didnt make money, it wouldnt be so popular there. and vice versa. because its popular it makes money
The real winner was that nvidia sponsor why didn’t we see it coming
3:24 is a top notch asmongold impression, ngl
Cata PVP was goated, might me my favorite even above Wotlk PVP
Rip reckful
This was a weird era actually for me. For me wrath was the peak. This was an odd expansion with a lot of the big teams separating. Talbadar is definitely a top player but I hated shadowplay even if it was really good. I was a fan of woundman. Seeing Reckful, Snutz, Sodah, and Venruki not on the same team also doesn't feel right.
I clicked on this video just because of Reckful.
Hey Xar or editor. Really awesome vid upload! It's a bit sad knowing Reckful had a completely different view of this historic moment than many of us that witnessed and see them as glory days.
He explains it in this video:
ruclips.net/video/OJZDB2RJ8BM/видео.html
"Reckful explains why he quit WoW" 13:04 mins long.
In case Xar wants to do a reaction to it or something....
I am sure every team that did not qualify for blizzcon each had their own frustrations. Reckful taking his ball and going home is peak Reckful. Great player but sadly had issues.
👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯💥💥✨✨💫💫
Esports in general was goated from ~2011-2012. After that it kind of went a little to much mainstream for my taste and got really bloated
Back when streamers were really good players, not just advertisers.
Old wow wasn't played for you
unrelated to the video, but first time playing wow in 3-4 years sat in queue right now for solo's... 45 mins. no wonder wow videos are thriving rn nobodies playing, and watching RUclips for queue pop ;/
yea thats why no new ppl play arena, people play arena for over 15 years and are so good, who wanna play this sh*t show
Gdew
why it was more fun/exciting is because the game is now so scripted. everything plays around "goes" and shatter/colossal smash windows.
the game being entirely about cooldowns and trading them properly has ruined wow by making it less skillful and more more boring.
also healers werent as grossly overtuned as they have been the past few expacs.
4:22 losing because you get CS’d once sounds like horrible gameplay. Sorry i don’t have 10 hours a day to play a class perfectly and learn to juke 100 time before i can get a spell off.
Also notice how all of these tournaments are almost exclusively double caster or RogueX… because melee were completely out classed in every way until MoP. the nostalgia is nice but it was inarguably a worse game for the majority of people.
Theres a reason the WoW twitch section viewership is down a ton since cata classic release, Most people either dont care for that era or think its just a bad game.
Get good
@@skyzo1487 typical braindead player response. Have fun playing cata it will be dead just like wotlk in a month
melee won blizzcon the year before this
I agree, but I should at least put that team on the backfoot. Things should matter. Grinding away at each other until dampening reaches critical levels which makes damage and cc finally matter is not fun either.
Imo, classes have waaaay to "complete" toolkits these days. Everyone has a bunch of different cc. Everyone has burst cooldowns. Everyone has big defensives. Healers cant die 1v1 and never ooms. Most classes have seemingly unlimited mobility. Every class has an answer to almost every situation. makes everything kinda bland imo
@@MrMazvaz idk what game youre playing almost every class has a pretty unique identity right now. Just because mage and rogue arent blatantly OP and have more tools than everyone else (they still do, its just less of a gap) doesn’t mean the game is bland…
The Reason it was so much better back then was the Game was so much better .. The Time was also better in Type of Wokeness and you being you and not trying to be someone else to Fit into this Society.. What you saw was what you got done ..
Was this wen Reckfuls original lock didnt go because he was fat and had social anxiety?
Benniez, he was the Shaman but yes this was it. NA regionals
ban addons itll help
ok boomer
Turn off your addons and see how good the game feels 🙄
yeah lets go back to stopwatch macros and scripts, that shouldnt confuse anyone
@@koskettaja609 people think the game is so confusing now lol imagine the horror if they knew how many conditional scripts were being used that players had to write themselves
