@Cheese9Man What do you mean once again gold knockdowns are removed? Theyve never removed them before that I know of? Also it is funny, when a pro loses to something, they all want it removed but when they win with it they are happy. I'd keep both in both myself.

As for ranked points, I think combined kp should be a thing.

@hayhor They were removed last time in the ALGS. The new thing that will be removed are the heat shields. 😃

    @Cheese9Man Wow I didnt even notice that last time. That is dumb. And heat shields being removed is even worse. So basically because tsm cant win anymore they need to remove anything they dont like. This is why I hate hal.

      @hayhor And how does gold shield and heat shield removed from ALGS affect you? Their points are valid, it doesn't matter much in ranked because there isn't real money involved. People play pubs all day and call the people who are competing for money asking for good changes even just for ALGS 'dumb'

      If you watch any high level ranked, you will see a lot of teams staying for so late in zone with heat shields. It promotes degenerate behavior. Again doesn't matter in pubs or ranked that much, and removing it isn't going to make the ranked experience any different.

        @BaldWraithSimpWell algs affects me as a viewer. Who doesnt love a comeback story? Why cant teams ride the ring and use heatshields when needed? The guy complaining is someone who prefers early rotations to sit inside buildings and wait. The game changed a bit and now teams that take some late rotation tactics are winning so guess what.....he is crying about it. I cant win change it! Waaaaaaah!

        Also my response was also in regards to whether they should just remove them from the game. No, pulling a clutch selfrevive or heat shielding when screwed is fun.
