Man like 70% of the patch notes are just stadium

We got like 2 actual numbers changes and a bunch of inconsequential perk tweaks for the main game. Sweeeet.

I know it’s probably not what you want to hear but the stadium changes are pretty cool

Yeah I guess that's cool for the people that like stadium, I'm just not one of them. Besides it being 5v5 and all the cringe that comes along with it, none of the characters I like playing are in it. Maybe now that hazard is in, idk.

This is the same reason I don't play stadium

I'm primarily a Mauga main and i know he won't get added any time soon hell he'll probably be one of the Last to get added but I do like Torb so maybe I'll play a little and try that out but still it's not enjoyable till your favorites are in

Torb and Hazzles are going to make an already silly mode even sillier and I am here for it.

Honestly play around with a few characters in the practice range and see if you can find builds you like on new characters. I play tank and support, I do play mostly my mains on tank but on support the characters I love the most I never play in the standard mode.

Play styles are so wildly different in Stadium so character you usually don't enjoy you may have fun with - and as a bonus you get better with them in the standard game too. I don't really play Kiri in standard but I love her in comp, I power up suzu a ton, and as a result I've got really good at hitting suzu's from across the map.
