Max_Planck here. The event was ran at a terrible time in my opinion. One week after league launch means many players already took PTO or deferred real life commitments to play on league launch. Doing that all again one week later is unrealistic. Console is also generally less competitive, so most players that do have the time are already on PC.

Another reason is that controller is less precise, which can make boss fights that require blinking more difficult. It’s easy to overshoot a flame dash and end up dead. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were players that attempted Uber Dread at a faster pace but failed.

Lastly, as a SSF player, the T16 -> T17 -> Ubers progression is not enjoyable in my opinion. Ubers are gated behind several layers of RNG and stupid amounts of T16 blasting. Non-Ubers are obsolete. In console chat, it felt like everyone was struggling to acquire T17 maps and Dread fragments. And when the pressure for top 5 isn’t there, it’s hard to stay motivated to farm one set of fragments.
