I lol'd xD

This /roll removal QQ fest is pretty funny.
It's like ANet just don't get why people did that in the first place.
...and that they will find different ways now to accomplish the same thing.

anyway...

Why did they do it in the first place? I don't HB but if I did I would rather fight than do something like /roll or resign just cause I am on the red team or whatever.

it just seems stupid not to fight >_<

A match can take near 10 minutes to play out... /roll or whatever just takes 1. That means you can get 10 times the wins with /resign fest, which is great for completing Zquest, balth faction, or commander title quickly.

This update also changed Seppo Hovi Action Teams and Super Kaon Action Teams tag to [Ban] instead of the original [Shat] and [SuKa] ones.

This is just the general chat at the hero battle outpost.

I played a dozen matches today and never encounter anyone offering to play rock, paper, scissors.

Maybe they should just make fighting in HB more rewarding? This made JQ finally playable. Double faction per kill?

This is the wrong approach to the issue.

Make hero battles more fun. Or just dump them and make a game mode that people love without extra incentives.

If they have to "bribe" us to play their game/game mode, it has serious issues.
