As a passionate Korean gamer, I’m a big fan of the Stadium mode. However, I’ve noticed that it doesn’t seem to be very popular on our servers. Recently, Aaron Keller mentioned that it was the most popular game mode, but I’m curious why it hasn’t caught on in Korea. Anyone have insights on this?

I think there might have been a misunderstanding! Aaron Keller didn’t actually claim it was the most popular mode; he just said it was more popular than they expected. Still, I’ve seen many Korean streamers playing Stadium, so it seems pretty active to me!
Considering that they’ve integrated loot boxes and event items heavily into Stadium, it’s surprising there aren’t more players, right? Seems like they put a lot of incentives into that mode!
Honestly, it’s a bit odd to post this question outside of Korea. I mean, who better to answer it than players on the Korean servers themselves?
Not sure what you mean by not popular. I used to play Stadium on the Korean server, and the queue times were pretty quick! But then again, I got banned for afking 😅. It seems like there’s still a good number of players.
He did mention in a blog post that about 50% of playtime was in Stadium during its first week. While it might have declined since then, it was definitely a hit at launch!
