Well at least there’s no-one alienating half the potential player base on the forums 
Is Duelyst dying? :(

Wow this thread is still going. The playerbase unrest is real.

No you’re wrong, this thread is dying.

I understand your reasoning for believing this topic is dying, but it seems there’s still a sufficient amount of activity here to keep it going for some time to come. Clearly, we need to be logical about this and not let personal bias cloud our eyes. Confirmation bias can distort your view of reality in ways that will change your actions for the worse.

A game is either thriving, dying or dead. Unless its obvious that it’s thriving, you only have so many alternatives.

Don’t forget Schrodinger’s game that is both dead and alive

Some games are none of those (a single player game for example), so if there’s a very easy other possibility found, maybe those are not the only possibilities.
Like, a game having a temporary slump, for example. Or the phase before it becomes thriving.
Etc.
Many more points on the life-curve of a MP game exist.

After I posted, I considered a plateau option. However, if the plateau lasts too long it will start to die.

I’ve been around since alpha and frankly these posts have happened every few months since duelysts initial release. It’s a good game that was plagued with a ton of power creep for quite some time, and the meta is finally in a healthy place after months of printing overturned cards and broken mechanics.
In that time many of the main players who regularly posted on the forum left. Or stopped interacting with the community all together. There used to be people regularly streaming the game, that’s pretty much gone now. Or rather it’s now a bit different.
It’s silly to say the game is dying because for the most part it’s already pretty dead. I used to only wait about 5 seconds for every match, now sometimes I’m waiting upwards of 2 minutes. The player base isn’t what it used to be, and CPG’s earlier mistakes cost them huge amounts of veteran players.

Scarzig still streams it. Tournaments should start again though, that was great to watch.
It’s extremely rare I have to wait longer than 20 seconds, maybe you live in a unfortuitous timezone?

He is probably from Europe, just like me. Does that count as an “unfortunate timezone”?. Have waiting times > 1 minute fairly often and yeah even 2+ minutes sometimes. One of my games today for example almost had 2,5 minutes waiting time.

Nope because I am Europe too.
Very odd then.
Ah wait… it might depend on ladder rank as well.
Or is it Gauntlet?

Nope, barely play Gauntlet, only ladder. When do you play usually? I always play in the evening, around 6 PM GMT and my waiting times are on a constantly high level since May or something like that. I am not even that high ranked right now, just rank 6.

Same rank as me then… well… eh, I play either around 1 pm or something like 8 pm through 11 pm.
Brussels time.

Seriously, who cares about who was streaming and is still or isn’t anymore ?
Streaming is for a small band of people that have their habits, majority don’t give a shit.
Nothing related with game’s (future) health.
(same goes for these forums, most of actual players don’t come/read here)
Same here, don’t remember having any queue waiting issue over the past 15 seasons.
Playing GMT+1 Paris, average 10 matches/day everyday.
Usually in Silver & Gold on day 1 and 2, and Diamond for the rest of season.

I live in Italy and play around 8 PM local time. Queue times vary between 10 seconds and 2 minutes. Most of the times I would say it’s around 15 seconds, but it’s not so uncommon to go above 1 minute.
