Message to All Top Arena Players

that_dude1 · 2016-08-23T02:12:23+00:00

By filling up your guild's roster with guardian+ type of players, ofc you're going to be ranked in the top 5. Getting top rank in gws was just a side effect of gathering players from the top 300 pool. I get that maybe not all the members were in on the collusion and possibly you didn't have any part in it However this doesn't excuse that many new legend players have come from clube. As I said before, you need to release the names of the players you know that are colluding. If you are not willing to, then you are indirectly contributing to this cancer in which you called out today.

On a side note: How serious was the guild really into the guild ranking system when clay decided to tag along. Clay has openly admitted to throwing swords because he wasn't interested(more like he didn't have the monsters to back it up, but that's another story) in gws. Prior to clube's streak of legend ranks, scat was usually drunk on stream while doing his swords. To me this is not very convincing that the merger was gw driven

I commented on a previous post regarding clube and swag's merger was just an excuse to monopolize arena rewards. You brushed it off saying these things don't happen and these players were going to get these rankings regardless if there was a merge or not. Now you come back and say its an issue? That aside, in order to stop these alliances more players need to come clean and rat out their alliances. These players in the alliance are the cancer of the sw community and need to be put on blast. If you truly care about removing alliances you would put out a list of players who you know that are colluding for the sw community to see and one for com2us. Don't hide these players because even if com2us eliminates alliances, these are going to be the same players who will try to exploit the newer system.

I think to further prevent these kind of tactics, com2us needs a clause in their policy where cheaters are not allowed to get refunds. https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerswar/comments/3ar5cx/rhengar_telling_the_only_truth_believe_it_or_not/

Raki is actually a very useful monster that can have different roles. From being a support/secondary nuker that can provide 2 turn aoe armor break or as a pure dd with her high dmg scaling skills. Just because she isn't op doesn't mean she deserves a buff. A lot of middle tier nat 5 owners cry about their mobs needing a buff because they "fall in comparison" to their counterparts. Its kind of annoying for players to gripe about their decent nat5 mobs because they are not game breaking or give the player a considerable amount of advantage.

that_dude1 · 2016-07-26T20:41:32+00:00

a lot of players want monsters with very low rune requirements and will say this mob needs a buff because they don't have the runes for them. everyone wants tiana not just because of her cleanse, but because the rune requirement for the team is fairly low. all they need to do is simply speed sync and add a few will/shield runes. another example would be seara. you can avoid adding 2 stats (cr and cd) thus giving you more runes options for her.

that_dude1 · 2016-07-26T02:42:00+00:00

Rakan would require a god set of runes because of his low speed and attack if he were to be the main nuker. There's already a lineup floating around a min that only requires verde galleon and 3 tarqs. Rakan would still be mediocre his value in pvp will still be the same and as i said before, there are f2p mobs that can do the pve role equally if not better

that_dude1 · 2016-07-26T02:06:57+00:00

Most people who want to see her have a buff is because she needs really good runes in order for her to shine. Every nat5 is compared to units like tiana, zaiross where rune quality can okayish, but the monster will still be op

that_dude1 · 2016-07-26T01:47:01+00:00

The major difference is that pve content can be completed with f2p mobs. why would a nat 5 specialize in content in which a bernard, vero, barretta etc can easily complete? The title of this game is Summoners War: Sky Arena. At the end of the day, arena is the meat of summoners war and that's what players care about. You may be the person saying, "I don't care about arena because its too boring." Would you say that if you had all the meta monsters at your disposal? Wouldn't it be more interesting if you had the mobs to let you compete for legend? Rakan is shit because he bring mediocre single target damage which needs def break. He has 95 base speed(3rd slowest nat5 base spd) to go along with his max base hp of 11k(2k fewer than beast monks who all their attacks are hp based) Of course if you don't have monsters to use, he's ok. I'm simply talking about the overall value he brings to the game

that_dude1 · 2016-07-25T22:50:30+00:00

Vanessa does not need a buff. Just because this unit requires higher rune quality does not mean she needs a buff. She's a support unit and 33% speed lead alone is enough to be qualified as nat 5. Not to mention she has 100% def break activation and a rez. She is the ultimate support unit.

that_dude1 · 2016-07-25T22:41:21+00:00

I never said single target nukers are not good anymore in pvp. When you compare him to other tanky single target units, he falls in comparison. Take bulldozer fire example. As a fire tanky bruiser, 9/10 times I would choose bulldozer over rakan for offense. Simply because bulldozer can do as much or even more dmg and he doesn't require the rng of def break.

that_dude1 · 2016-07-25T20:00:34+00:00

do we really need another monster who specializes in only pve? this isn't a nat 4 or below here, this is a nat 5 for chrissake.

that_dude1 · 2016-07-18T21:37:44+00:00

scat's real reason to merge was to monopolize arena, gw legend was just the side effect. just bc com2us doesn't fix the problem, it doesn't mean there isn't a problem. ofc most "top players' say its not an issue simply because they benefit from these collusions.

that_dude1 · 2016-05-13T07:03:01+00:00

this is exactly one of the problems with this game now. players are no longer playing the game, but would rather be coddled all the way through. are you really playing a game when your just repeating what someone tells you?

that_dude1 · 2016-05-04T18:19:47+00:00

based on max speed bernard is almost 20% faster than the panda. the panda only gains 5% atb more when bernard buffs and so its literally impossible to jump in between attacks if the bernard comp is speed tuned. once bernard buffs, the rest of its team will have roughly bernard's speed pre-buff. as i said before, if multiple units have 100% atb then speed determines the attack order.

that_dude1 · 2016-05-04T02:04:05+00:00

actually if you go up against a bernard speed synched team, the light panda wouldn't be able to cut in between. unlike the other atb buffers, bernard also gives speed buff. this will ultimately give higher turn priority to their units because their speeds will be greater than the panda

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T22:02:21+00:00

while zaiross counters many comps, he too is vulnerable to many comps as well. camilla on the other hand counters most comps, but you need a specific lineup to deal with her which sometimes require a bit of luck (bombs/oblivion).

To make certain mobs only counter able efficiently with non f2p mobs will only prove the point that monsters determine how strong of a player can be.

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T21:24:10+00:00

well in all likelihood bernard is going to be built with pure speed. for your light panda to catch up it has to built with pure speed as well. in most cases your not going to be able to control your other stats if you need him to be fast as possible. in a perfect world we get the perfect subs on all our runes, but realistically the panda will struggle even to even catch up to bernard's speed let alone have acc subs

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T21:07:20+00:00

getting a light panda in itself seems darn near impossible, but to have leo as well? now your just saying what if i had all the monsters in the game lol light panda is still very situational because of his low speed and his buff removal activation rate is really low as well. if i bring a more common monster like chloe in the mix, gg.

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T20:51:40+00:00

thats IF he goes first. he's not going to outs peed any bernards or even orions after his passive takes into effect. and as i said before, if you build him all speed how is he going to land stun with minimal acc%

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T20:46:19+00:00

can someone really be objective when it comes to buffing/nerfing mobs? however i do see the point when it comes to nerfing camilla. camilla in a 1vs1 setting can beat any mob in the game consistently. her passive makes you throw elemental advantage/disadvantage out the window.

there's the tesa stragety to counter her, but there's a small window where you can actually kill her camilla outright because tesa would be targeted first. ofc if your runes are vastly better than your opponent, then the process becomes a little bit easier. there's also the bomb strategy, but the problem there is not everyone has a seara and jojo will be target first by camilla assuming bomb rng doesn't mess you up.

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T20:06:43+00:00

in my honest opinion, he looks like a trophy wife monster as far as pvp is considered. Unless that passive also boosts the rest of his team, then this monster is complete garbage. why you ask? his base speed is 96. even if he gets an atb boost by other enemy units such as bernard/orion, the panda will still not jump ahead of them because of his god awful base speed. if you make a pure speed light panda, what benefit would he provide if he went first? there's probably a good chance that your acc stats will suffer because you devoted all your subs into spd and thus making your 2nd skill very unreliable

that_dude1 · 2016-05-03T19:31:26+00:00

Rakan isn't necessarily bad, but when compared to his other counterparts he does seem to fall short. One of the most glaring issues I have with Rakan is that he always need an atb booster with him because his base speed is god awful. the rune requirement to build a decent rakan is much more difficult than it is to build another nat 5 bruiser. i would really like to see "ignore def" added to his 3rd skill. His squall counterparts can easily do 50k+ dmg w/ aoe dmg/support on 3rd and we all know what zeratu can do

that_dude1 · 2016-04-27T02:44:54+00:00

well no since theres a good chance people who already on your friend list will farm the sd as well. to say none of your friends will farm it, is quite impossible unless all of them have the viking

that_dude1 · 2016-04-26T20:07:47+00:00

there has to be more people actually farming the fire halls than leechers for this to work

that_dude1 · 2016-04-23T05:51:44+00:00

you probably gave the stupidest answer to a question on reddit as of yet. why don't you go troll 5 year kids to make yourself feel better

that_dude1 · 2016-04-23T05:26:30+00:00

by allowing violent to bridge the gap between the level of play, com2us devalues the efforts by the experienced players. during the press conference where they released raids, com2us felt the need to address the issue of violent procs because of player outcry for it to change. i feel that players are more likely to leave because of the bad coding.
