truth, a wise dino-princess you are
I dont see any any key!
The "market" in standard is flooded with items that will never leave it. People have what they want. The stuff that's selling is either being sold to new players or being sold to people with nothing better to do than trade items.

I guarantee the temp league players are on average a younger demographic.

For one thing they don't have as many obligations, so they have the time to restart every few months.


Sounds likely.

They also don't have the foresight that adults have, so they have trouble understanding why it is a waste of time to abandon something that has taken effort to build up, or that it is actually more rewarding to play around with previously accumulated resources.


So when I grow up I'll realize that rerolling (stash) is a waste of time?^^

Finally you can see in this thread and others that most temp league players lack the ability to critically think about why they hold their opinions, or if what they are repeating is actually true, or if it is just the popular thing to say. Younger people aren't exactly known for critical thought, but they are known for parroting popular opinions / views so as to fit in. It takes awhile to develop the self confidence to go your own way, and to stand up for what is correct, even if it isn't the popular opinion.


Younger people are also known for more extreme views and for thinking outside the box.

i would love to play standard. but that server is so corrupt that even if i needed to trade for items i wouldn't be able to afford a level 1 skill gem with out Q on it.

If standard was wiped and restarted i would play it hands down.

comment on changes which would effect temp leagues as well?

Hmm.

I'll tell you what, if I ever see a thread which says "We need an AH for Standard only" I'll be sure to tone it down, if I even say anything.

Stop the lies and start the truths. More than 99% of all items listed in standard are supercheap.

I am one of the rare fair players/collectors.
i wonder when people wil lrealize that prices on standard for most of t1 uniques are lower then on temp lagues... what will happen then ?
casuals... they always know better
nothing?

Have you considered that the reason why those t1 items are so cheap on standard might just be because all of those temp leagues players you think are ignorant of this good deal... probably already have all of those t1 items as a result of previous temp league item accumulation?


temp league items are expensive because people actually want them. the moment that stops being true the prices of said items naturally deteriorate to what they are on standard.

thats the point, temp lagues shouldnt be advertised as new player friendly, more like burn outs friendly. yet ggg does it.

Programming QoL improvements for individual leagues is out of the scope for development. The game is a whole unit. The ruleset differences are difficult enough to balance risk/reward. The perversion of the SC economy, and the health of the leauge is exactly the reason not to waste time. The temp leagues are why ppl play this game. If your trying to trade up to uber in vanilla sc right now .... idk
