Battle of the Greats: L36 AL CTF Tournament!

[Cero]

@Cero
The reason why I included arcane pets is because of the argument that mythics were common now. Well, one could argue that arcanes are common now as well. So, if we did away with the one non-mythic rule, something has to be kept in balance. Otherwise, that would make those who wanted to use mythics slightly hypocritical, no?

It's like saying, "Hey, if you didn't work towards mythics, that's too bad, earn them. But wait, arcanes isn't really fair." I hope you understand why I created that rule.

yea, im not saying to remove arcane pets but instead limit it to 1Arcane pet type per team. as you said, Arcane pets are now common and a team can generate types of the arcane pet. Having 2 or 3 Samael makes an annoying panic/terrify difference. I've played with 3 to 5samael many times and its hard. Not only that it's hard but also it takes the fun away, since samael can panic per swing and using terrify ability. All im saying is limit the Arcane pet type to 1 for more than that is just no fun, more even and challenging if theres only one OP samael.


so if my team has 3samael.
we could go

2 warriors with glaive+ samael
1rogue with Dagger + samael
1rogue with bow+malison
and me with mythic (no slag)

our gears and set up have meet the
3arcane pet/gear
3stunners rule.
1arcane per player.

Team of meecah is not complete without consultation it was already posted on the forum.

Please don't pin this on me, you sought voicy and others, so if you want to bail team just do it, but don't accuse me of something we know I didn't do.

Rasi and Nasty are with boss/voicy.

I will edit my team entry to reflect this and other changes and write gear/pets as soon as we have it all figured out.

I'm not saying I accused you, but next time be more clear. There was not enough discussed with each other how can you post something on the forum without discussion? And Rasi knew nothing of the team next time just better consult with each other. I have nothing against you, but I'm just saying so it does not happen again because it looks like a big mess now.

[katish]

I specifically said I was adding our entry and editing the details later today. It would've been nice if u had dropped me a pm or something instead if learning of the change from others.

But it's ok it's all sorted out now. Good luck for u guys

And one could argue glacian/hammerjaw gives greater overall benefits as well. As of now, a team can choose any arcane pet they want. I will not be limiting strategy. A team of Samael's give up speed & team bonuses. A team of Hammerjaws & Glacians give up stuns for increased survivability. There are trade-offs for each style. Also, keep in mind as this is CTF, not FFA, you're most likely not going to be going up against a bunched up group of Samaels to repeatedly be stunned over and over.

If we follow your way, what is the difference? You just made your own team more powerful, correct? Now, not only do you have 3 arcane pets, but 3 stunners & increased survivability from the other arcane pets.

Thanks for keeping it respectful. If there is any other disagreements, handling it like this is perfectly acceptable. If it goes beyond this, please PM & notify hosts/co-hosts if they can help bring y'all to an agreement.

Hi Ravager, thanks for signing up a team! Please indicate each participant's chosen pet, and if you have any substitute players please list their names as well. Thanks!

[Taejo]

And sorry were trying to get are pet situation figured out trying to get everyone together so we can all talk about it.

No worries. You can post your team and edit it later - but at least get it visible on the forums so Apollo can get a head count of teams

[Taejo]

ctf - hammerjaw all mythics - myth daggers
youudie- slag full mythics - myth staff
paulsebi-vixen full mythic with arcane maul
liltrix-samael full mythic - myth staff
aciidd- samael full mythic - myth glaive

subs:
azepeiete
pinatas

This looks good, Postulate1. Make sure you update your team on the official tournament page, and include what class each team member is. I know all of them, but just make it public knowledge if you would please. Thanks!

and i can argue whatever you're equiped with if you're stunned from panic(normal attack) and terrify(arcane) you have no chance.
The diffirence between one samael vs 3samael is huge. With samael the ctf game will most likely depend on who gets stunned to death. Yes, my team is strong but what about others? From what i can understand on your propusal, youre trying to make a fair tournament but doesnt that making a rule of 1arcane pet type per team makes it more fair?

Im pushing this through lol. if this tournament realy wants a fair one, Making 1Arcane pet type per team rule is the fairest.
There is no point on a game that being stunned to death thats why devs put an stun immune for Stunner Sorcs.

PS: it shows that the're still 2spot available but i cant register. say ng there's no more spot.

If I could throw in my 2 plat on the issue...

I understand exactly where you're coming from, Cero. However, I feel that maybe most of our perspectives and speculations are based on how CTF currently functions: 5v5 games brawls in the center of the map, unbalanced games where people "gang", or flagging games. This tournament is going to require some adaptation of strategy on top of basic fighting tactics. It will be interesting to see how different team makeups, weapons and pets perform in a legitimate CTF match - not just a 5v5 brawl. If any team actually wants to win their matches, 5v5 brawls are not necessarily going to accomplish that. With all that being said, I think the rule is going to stay in place for now (although I am not the official voice, Apollo is). After this tournament, there will a comprehensive "hot wash" (feedback session) of the rules and mechanics of the tournament, so that the next one can run smoothly and without any issues. Not to sound like a broken record, but our main objective here is to have a fun event for PvP-lovers to enjoy and show off their skills. Hopefully it is successful so that we can hold monthly tournaments.

[Cero]

mmk, guess im stack on brawl perspective.

안녕하세요, thanks for signing up and including all the information needed! The weapon changes will only matter if Woofcookie decides to use an arcane staff, in which case he cannot use an arcane pet. Make sure you register your team on the official tournament page!

[Instanthumor]

Darn you are so smart. How did you know ? lolz

[Instanthumor]

Oh, and taeho. I am having trouble registering our team. I have no idea what to do...can you tip me in a bit please?

[Taejo]

Oh, and taeho. I am having trouble registering our team. I have no idea what to do...can you tip me in a bit please?

1. Click link: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/tour...?do=view&id=51
2. Upper right-hand corner of screen, directly above "Tournament details" is a drop down box labeled "New". Click that, and then select "New Team".
3. Insert all of the details for your team that you mentioned on this thread. You can update it later if need be.

Let me know if this doesn't work for you.

[Ravager]

Ok. Its a WIP on the pets and who will use Samael etc. Still looking for subs as well.

If lets say my rogue doesn't show up but then my sub is a mage or a war, would I have to go with a 4 person team? Wouldn't it make sense to have 3 subs, 1 of each class (even though I don't have a single one yet? haha)
