tppk and mods like autochicken killed all open pvp for hardcore in diablo 2, not lag. This is why everyone just leveled in private games.
I could see diablo 3 being slightly better platform for some version of it, but going hostile in game and chasing someone down who is farming mobs in MF gear was fairly lame in my eyes. While I enjoyed forcing people to leave games that were pissing me off, it just easier to find another game.
I used to duel a fair amount when I was number 1 (highest level) amazon on USWEST server on the first ladder run hardcore mode and took several ears, but the thrill wore off when people just spammed bonespirit/guided arrow/frost nova/leap and run around until they would get stun locked and died or pussed into town with an instant gate. I even retired that character alive.
