Of course not to that extent, but most games have tutorials.
Take a game like an RTS. Age of Empires, or StarCraft. If I were to introduce someone to these games, I’d suggest that they start with the campaign or matches against the AI before they jump straight into the ladder.
At the end of the day, complex games are complex. You can’t expect to pick up WoW arena and perform immediately like you would in League of Legends for example.
It’s mostly because Blizzard don’t care.
Make me lead designer and I can revive PvP in less than 3 years, starting with this: New Feature ⚔️ The Coliseum
Yes. This will be big for casual players who’re interested in ranked PvP, by the way.
This is the kind of transition between “casual BGs” and “hardcore arena” that we need.
I’m sure this game mode will be very popular, and will help people to get good enough for arena not to be as traumatizing.
