Remove legacy items

I assume you all balance things the way you do for a reason. Having legacy items in standard screws with the playerbase in specific ways such as creating a power standard that is no longer obtainable because that item no longer functions like that. Just make all instances of the item current. Also delete mageblood and headhunter if you can't balance your game around them.

That wont happen, Standard players aren't going to give up their stuff.

Then what is the point of Standard permanent league if there is no legacy item?

deleting legacy items will make a bunch of people immediately quit, to note these are some of the people buying the expensive supporter packs.

secondly, vaal immortal call is the only thing balanced with standard legacy items in mind, everything else is balanced around leagues.

Instead of our legacy items, kindly remove your nose from our busyness.

It's too late to remove them. They should have never been a thing in the first place. Take away people's toys and they will react like children - that would be bad for GGGT.


@ Neohongkong:

the point is:
- you would still keep most of what you have accumulated
- you don't have to start from zero currency/items every 3 months
- you don't have to redo the 10 acts as often
- you don't have to redo the atlas every 3 months

I think those are already quite a few good reasons for some people to play standard.

It's as much his business as it is yours which is: none of our business at all cuz it's GGGT's business. But we can all bitch about it in here.

Do not reset progress every 3 months? Some players have no time for that. Standart is solution for that and legacy items is a cancer.

no

keeping legacy items or not, my problem with that, is, that due to their type of implementation of mods, some go legacy and some do not.

but yes, when they designed their affix system, they obviously didn't spend a thought on the consequences of mods being changed. or they didn't care about player's achievements in standard league.

that's the opposite of "we don't want to devalue player's efforts" which they claimed at release.

Let's assume OP isn't trolling.
Okay then, dear OP, in case you haven't paid GGG anything, or even if you paid a little, many of these standard guys with legacy items are a big part of why you can still play the game.
