With PvP drowning in insecure, overgeared players determined to show off how allegedly powerful they are, I'd like to take the time to share an awesome experience I had playing CTF as it is supposed to be played.
It started as a CTF room with flaggers, except absent were the previously mentioned noob-type players. It was kinda boring so I decided to mix it up and kill a few flaggers. Eventually I was the only player left on my team and the other team had two lower geared mages that were easy to kill for my gear level (mid level gear). I stood my ground in the flag room and wouldn't let them score the last flag and end the game.
To my surprise, they kept persisting and that's when things got really fun. They started working together and trying different tactics. With each successive attempt to score the last flag they got smarter and better, and I also had to change tactics to counteract their moves. During the final attempt, they managed to stun me before I got my shield up and then again with Kelvin and that's when they scored!
I've never been so happy to die and lose a game of CTF lol. They both worked hard and used their smarts to defeat me and my superior gear and I couldn't help but feel really proud of them. I congratulated them both and it was clear they had had a great time and were in a celebratory mood.
Here's to more CTF games like that. :)
