I are teh n00b... ph3ar me!!

from Stardock Forums

So I join this "Good Players" game, but quickly become the n00b with constant feeding.  Oh no!  I actually thought for a second that my allies would 'help'. BAD ME!! It's always fun when you get on a team that just wants to tower hug ALL GAME and give absolutely zero support... they were the "Good Players" the game was looking for and I only wish I had as much skill as they displayed *dreams*.

It's fun going 2v1 with your Regulus behind you firing at the enemy creeps instead of the Demi's.  And it's always good when your Oak has 2x as much HP as you, but only engages after you go in first.

I guess in pro games, it's not about killing... but instead, playing like a complete wuss and running at any sign of trouble... even if you out-number your enemy 2:1. Yes, I will run in and feed... anything is better than sitting back and doing absolutely nothing like the other morons on your team.

Too bad the replay support isnt in the game yet, I'd like to see the game.

Isn't it obvious what you did wrong?

 

You did not confuse the enemy team enough, this game isn't only about tactics, it's mental warfare. Whenever I go in a game I always talk about Cake and Pie, and when they would collide it would mean the rebirth of the universe as we know it.

After that I started talking about poetry :O That pisses them off alright, I had never thought that a simple poem could turn the tides of a game.

Ask Schobbo and Life, mental warfare wins games, not tower hugging.

 

Edit: If thou art interested in joining the Church of Cake and Pie, let me know.

Yep. I hate feeding like that. It makes me sick to my stomach. You're a good player, though, Call. I've played with you a few times. Just in case someone tries to discredit your rep.

 

... not that my rep is that great ._.

type in one word "assist" before you go charging in.
at least give them some kind of warning you need help before going rambo

Haha, dang Call sounds like you had some worthless allies or what. Some people dont realize the importance of flag controll sometimes ^_^

Granted going into a 2v1 is never a good idea ;) Unless you are already vastly superior gear and skill wise.

Sometimes its about knowing that your buddy is about 4 seconds away from arriving to save your ass...because he isn't a coward and sees you retreating at low health which allows you time to use a potion in safety and return to the battle where its now 2 v 2 and they are in your towers :p
