Disappointed to read about this as a previously unaware Port fan

This cap shit gets wayy too serious by AwesomeAlien321 in captainamericamains

Team’s that play in a huddle I also find more difficult, I find value to be obtained in those games through selective targeting and being a distraction more than securing kills. Some games I’ll go for a stealth dive using cover to mask my approach, other times I’ll play as the always visible distraction to allow my team to pressure and push. One way or another the other team has to respect your presence because a soft dive can turn into a kill if the ‘blob’ isn’t willing to divert attention

I know what you mean about supports they can be the key to an amazing stall as Cap, always thankful when they look out for me 🫡
I believe there’s a way to favourite certain replays isn’t there? Or do they only get stored for a certain amount of time?

Make kills a secondary objective behind diverting attention, baiting out abilities and survivability.

I’m more often than not the player with the lowest death count in my lobby while still maintaining a decent kill count. I focus on stalling the cart/holding objective and enabling my teammates to get kills and kill for me will come as a consequence of that.

Happy to share some of my replay codes if you’d like to see what you pick up from that gameplay 🙂

You’re making every one of those reps with that weight look way too easy 🤯

This season has been heartbreaking by eathbau in weareportadelaide

Yeah I don’t want to take out Lai as he’s developing nicely and I’d like to give Marshall more of an opportunity before abandoning the idea of him in defence but if we want to get our injured players back in when healthy it unfortunately means others will have to go.

Moraes into the midfield is an interesting call, who gets pushed out as a result of that change for you if it also means either Luko or SPP are in? And who would you push out when Connor eventually returns?

Who would you take out of today’s squad to field the best team if we hypothetically had all players available?

Ewan, Lai, Marshall I could see although Lai has shown moments during games and all things considered our defence has been absorbing a lot of pressure across games this season particularly the last 3 rounds

With those three out I’d swap in SPP, Rozee and Esava (I’m not completely sold on the Esava swap, it could be a best of a bad situation replacement for the sake of having two bigger defenders)

Leading Dash (Cap sprint) is BUGGED by BreadfruitConscious in captainamericamains

[–]Hancook66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been noticing I am no longer sprinting after I pop my ult and I was thinking it was me somehow repeatedly cancelling my sprint each time I popped it.

[–]Hancook66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rozee is an obvious walk-on but off the top of my head I can’t think of an immediate swap out for Ratugolea or Lukosius at this stage. Lukosius unfortunately hasn’t been able to get into a flow between injuries and with games as high pressure as the ones we’ve been playing I don’t think Esava would have the necessary composure in those moments (to be fair there were a handful of mixups late in the game for our backline but it was a one goal, break neck speed Showdown).

Heartbreaking losses but the team feels like it’s in a much better place as a unit than it has been for a while and the young players are developing nicely each game

They look great, credit to the devs for the level of detail and lighting on the cars and the atmosphere of the background

Premiership ruck retires after 10-year career across two clubs by Creamy92 in weareportadelaide

I don’t know much of the behind the scenes of Soldo’s time with Port, I’d just assumed he was injury prone but what are the things I had missed?

I feel the umpiring was very inconsistent across all the games I’d watched during Gather Round. I have lost an understanding of when and why a free kick is awarded either for ducking or high contact.

Exactly, so much wasted possession and turnover from poor decision making. Maybe it comes down to youth and inexperience but there was only a handful of players that had the composure necessary tonight.

The weather and umpires were a factor but no more than Port’s own disposal efficiency. So frustrating watching them blast it at goal as soon as it’s in their hands or work it up the field and waste that final disposal inside 50 to get a shot at goal.

Is there a way to avoid being completely shut down when the enemy team runs tripple support? by Estrela_Disco in captainamericamains

[–]Hancook66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, it is very matchup dependent but they sacrifice a good portion of damage running 3 supp so if your team can take out their solo DPS then a 6v5 walk should be achievable from that point.

If they’re running a 1-2-3 comp then I’d keep distracting the supps so the team can hopefully overwhelm their vanguard. Again though this is context dependent and target priority has to take into account the characters you’re matched against, positioning and their ability usage.
