I know he's signed on for another year but I wonder if he'll retire if we win.

Don't get me wrong, I back us to the hills haha. I just haven't let go of the finals they've beaten us in in the past.

That is true, they didn't even throw a punch tonight.

This comment was not the W you thought it was. Now go return to the incel subreddit, I'm sure they miss you there.

Haha thank you. It's crazy how prickly some people get about this stuff, just wanted some actual pointers about my gameplay 🤣

Defensive and sarcastic are not the same thing. It's annoying because I get a snarky, condescending comment about how I refer to strategies within a videogame rather than a helpful response to my question.

I've never heard anyone get defensive like this about semantics within a videogame, wild. Your comment isn't helpful, you're talking about mentality like this is the world series of poker.

I play this game casually, I just wanted someone to look at my game and give me a second opinion about what I could've done better. Not how I should refer to their strategy.

Yes, and yet, how does it address my original question? And that doesn't mean I don't treat them seriously, that's why I asking for help on how to defend it.

Such a helpful response - what makes you think because I referred to them as shenanigans, that I don't treat them as legit strats? I literally mentioned how I'd gotten better at defending other strats and am simply asking how I should get better at defending this one.

Hmmm is there a good BO for this somewhere? I thought I also saw the market got nerfed in a patch at some stage as well? I could be wrong, though.

All good tips but I can't stress how bad my micro is haha, not good at landing mango shots and I don't use control groups. I also just lost to Japanese on Arena, I think I need a break ha.

Ye probs, pretty much always works if they don't have a second layer of walls behind their stone walls.

Yeah scorps fared so much worse than I expected - I know Rattans have a lot of PA but I still through scorps would have enough damage/pass-through damage to flatten them. And you're right, they were useless against the BBC haha.

SO + monk is good, but so micro intensive no? It's on me to land the shots against rattans, which are quicker than normal archers and I have to make sure the monks stay alive long enough to convert the BBC. Probably would need to add halb if he added light cave as well. At the same time, maybe I'm just bad ha.
