I %100 agree he should have an official poll, despite liking the SR myself. This is a big change that requires it to be done right. I feel like that did not happen on the 2v2 ladder either and now we are stuck with that template.

I really like the idea of two ladders. Just call the one "1v1 Classic" or something.

(Don't go back to 16% though. 0% WR)

The idea is to bring the ladder back how it was before the last update. So wirh 0% wr.

FYI, I recounted the votes in that thread and %71 favored %0 WR over %0 SR. I would expect if Fizzer made an official poll based on this request you'd see similar numbers.

I think the better way to handle this would have been to do a seasonal with %0 SR before posting that thread just to see how it compared. I think one of the old seasons might have been that (the last couple were, but multi-attack makes it totally different game).

EDIT - Looks like Season IV could be used as a comparison, we should probably examine those games and see how they went:

Season	Map	        Settings
I	Medium Earth	Strat, %16 WR, Light Fog, Cycle move, 0s in dist.
II	Medium Earth	Strat, %16 WR, Light Fog, Cycle move
III	EA&O	        Strat, %16 WR, Cycle move, 3s in dist.
IV	Medium Earth	Strat, %0 SR, Cycle move
V	Battle Isle V	Strat, %0 SR, Cycle move
VI	Medium Earth	Strat, %16 WR, no wastelands, Auto Dist.
VII	Heavy Earth	%16 SR, 1 army starts, 1 neutrals, 2s in dist.
VIII	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %16 WR, Randomized Bonuses
IX	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %0 WR (%85 def kill), Cycle move, Random bonus
X	Four Castles	4 way FFA, Strat, %16 WR, Army cap
XI	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %16 WR, Light Fog, Cycle move, Local Deploy
XII	Turkey	        No luck Cycle, Local Deploy
XIII	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %0 WR, Cycle, Local Deploy, Random bonus
XIV	Romanium	%16 SR, 15 wastes of 3, cities = 0
XV	Poland	        %0 SR
XVI	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %16 WR, No Split Mode
XVII	Ancient Greece	%0 SR, NC, 10 wastelands of 5
XVIII	Snow Mountains	%0 SR, no luck cycle
XIX	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %0 SR, no luck cycle, Multi Attack, Light Fog
XX	Mod Med Earth	Strat, %0 SR, no luck cycle, Multi Attack, Light Fog, Local Deploy

I put up three votes, too. This change ignores and alienates most of the WL community.
One last Seasonal and then the good old 1v1 ladder will probably be gone for good ... : /

And I thought that 1v1 ladder was the one holy, untouchable one, but seemingly not. I think I remember some remarks by fizzer in that regard in the past, but I guess that wasn't true, then.

Congratulations to the few that spoke for and promoted that change, interestingly being also the most successful coin players, calculating those games to dead, expansion instead of strategy, breaking an enemy`s bonus not worth a dime any more, all just about coverage and stalling the opponent.

There were coin games with this template already, but after a while hardly anyone wanted to play them any more. So now that template for the ladder so more players play the coin games again? I don't believe that'll help at all.

And what is a 30$-Membership worth if we members don't get a saying at all (though exactly that is what we're being told)?

I just noticed Fizzer won season IV (which was %0 SR ME). Let the conspiracy talk begin!

Conspiracy talk: Fizzer barred me from playing that season. He wants to keep my gold trophies to a minimum.

About MoD's point: Someone should look at all the new ladder games that finish. How many players didn't realize the settings and map changed? Not everyone pays attention to shit. They mechanically go through the motions expecting everything to be the same as before.

I saw a game in which a top 5 player didn't realize the settings had changed. So I rejoined the ladder, hoping to get a game against him. If he picks and plays according to the old settings and I play according to the new settings, he'll be at a disadvantage. Easy win.

How was he playing old style? Attacking 4v2s? That would be pretty bad for a "top 10" player. I assume you mean some other adjustment was not made?

EDIT - I see one game where 1 chips were used that resulted in 2 extra armies lost that were not needed, but it looks like that was done for extra delaying on a poke.

He figured out the settings after turn 1. Too late. I'm so evil! 14-0.

Those are some impressive wins. I'll be your accountant on 3v3 ladder if you tutor me on 1v1 ladder :)

1v1 ladder is broken. Only Szeweningen knows how to play. He is the god of SR, which stands for Szeweningen's Rules.

i saw a game where a Player who didn't realize there are new Settings, played like 20 turns vs a VERY experienced Player on the new ladder and won in the end :D

old > new!

Haha I find that very funny. I'm still getting to grips with the new settings after working so hard to become good at the old settings

so i guess the greatest strategic template, the template i used to Play for Ages, the template that meant warlight for me, is definitely dead.

I wrote Fizzer if he would now create a poll as promised (the uservoice was very successful), but he didn't answer. also his Statement on PS "to uservoice or not to uservoice" thread https://www.warlight.net/Forum/111355-uservoice-uservoice
proved me right, that fizzer just wanted to give us the Feeling that he cares about our opinion on this Change. still claiming he tought the Change was wanted by the majority of the community after the update was done, is just pure hypocrisy.

I'm really sad about this. the 1vs1 ladder died for me. Hopefully at least his plan to promote coingames trough that change will work out.

Don't play coin games if you are upset. Or play only 1v1 Classic coin games.

I won't play coin games in the closer future for sure. I won't support that update indirectly. 1vs1 classic coin games still Support coin games even if here is no creating fee

Even with 10,000, he'd put it as one of the many features that will not be currently on the "roadmap" for the next 3 years.
