The loss of the respective "Noob Tubes" from the game, SNACs, SHFs, and Battleships from roughly the 4.91 era, have been tragic for new players and unskilled players participation in the game environment. The new mechanical intensity has driven the skill floor up, and pulled the rug out from under the feet of many players, most of which I'm guessing don't play anymore.
