Re: playFFA ladder breaking news
the rare case where i agree with trump random heroes is a joke gametype, i cant believe its 40% of the games only a few people enjoy it, i think it should be treated more like a side game, 10-20% of the games. they take a really long time to fill up because so few people play RH. This slows games for everyone else. If you have less RH games, then they would actually fill up more quickly, because the core RH players would all wait for the game to come April 06, 2018, 10:49:32 am |

Re: playFFA ladder breaking news
The debate about RH maps has gone on since their inception. I would personally like 25% RH hero maps, or every 4th game. Not 10%, but also not 40%, 25% is a pretty good medium. Either way, tough to complain about anything when we have a working ladder and reset coming soon. Plus 1.29 patch! Should be plenty of activity again and competition. April 06, 2018, 07:54:11 pm |

FML goes Battle.net
Dear FML members, Some chaotic days lie behind us and we know that it has been quite a challenge to get FML matches going, since 1.29 was released and players were required to patch back. After some initial hesitancy, we communicated on Friday that the FML standard realm will remain w3arena until further notice. At that point, it wasn’t clear if the further notice would come within a day or two weeks. However, the events since Friday and discussions amongst the admins have led to the conclusion that an immediate transition is inevitable. We rather take the risk of potential bugs and some uncertainties now, than to continue with a situation where the majority of players have to patch around before their matches and “multi-realm confusion”. Most other tournaments and leagues moved to 1.29 already. All FML matches will be played on Battle.net as of now and the FML community meets in “clan FFAM” on Northrend (we will try to recover clan FML or FFA). This is also meeting point before matches, so we don’t have to occupy the game lobby for too long. Active bots are noot (London) and accu (Miami). Whoever had access to these niels bots on w3arena, please request access again by writing to niels via Discord. The player colors black, white, brown (on brown maps) and dark green (on grass maps) are prohibited. Furthermore, there should be no two players with very similar two colors in game (majorly affects the different tones of purple, ocher, salmon and light blue). We know the change may cause some inconvenience for a few players, but hope everyone is as hyped as we are to experience FFA on 1.29. If you have issues to set up Battle.net again, please check some of the FAQs (e.g. on www.reddit.com/r/WC3/) or contact Ugri via Discord. In many cases, launcher issues can be solved by running it in “admin mode” at all time and removing all other Warcraft 3 instances before it. The mouse curser slowness can be solved by deactivating “vertical sync” in graphics driver settings and running the launcher with the command “-nativefullscreen”. Apologies for the confusion and us all a great time on Battle.net. The nostalgia is alive! GL HF Your FML admin team April 15, 2018, 05:59:43 pm |

Re: S27 | Semi-Final
There is only one problem. Who will take a risk. He will have 0 gold. destroy him 100% lost. And there were 40,000 gold left on this map.

Re: How has FFA actually changed after the patch?
Hi Dovekie, I only know the scene before 2017 from replays and discussions, but I'll try to tell you about current meta. In general, some active players have the tendency to rush players as soon as they have 2-3k gold. I was told there were no such oldschool players and initial hoarding was more common. Due to the high skill bandwith, fast pace and general lack of scouting, we saw many freewins in previous events and inhouse matches. To avoid this, people often peace in four ways already (at least temporarily), to scout. Elf I guess the meta for elf has not changed much (DR/DH/Alchi + Panda + KotG or Panda + Potm + Kotg), apart from kotg being a must have right now, after the recent patch. Most players go for chippo. The only major exception is Trunks, who dominates most of his matches by playing DH + Naga + PotM and a mix of archers, talons, hippos, dryads. Undead Most current undead players stick to their gargs and don't get a single fiend. Qwest's build order became very popular, in which he techs ultra fast, by instantly building a second necropolis in his main. Unfortunately, necrowaggon pushes are rare these days. With the latest patch, Dreadlord became the only viable third hero and is often played as a first hero even (either with Lich or Panda + DK). Orc Orcs are having a hard tim these days, not only due to the patch, but also because they rely on micro quite heavily and bats are simply too costly (in a rush-heavy environment) vs all the air armies (chippo, gargs, etc.). While BM, SH, TC still is meta, certain players like to try other hero combos as well or stick with DR, SH, TC. Once Orc has a bank and stacked heroes, they can still dominate. Human Human is still widely considered as the best FFA race, despite 1.29. Divine Shield was shortened and Gyros are basically unplayable vs the new Carrion Swarm, but humans still have most of their weapons. Only few players apply rifle caster pushes these days (might also be due to the few small maps we play currently) and most will play whatever is needed or they prefer (tanks, dragonhawks, gryphons, spellbreakers or just hoarding on 50 and getting mass towers). Certain players (especially strong ones) play AM + Panda + Pala nowadays, while others stick to MK second. Alchemist first is played on some maps, but I wouldn't call it meta yet. Edit: Tinker is still played by some players (e.g. Mog), but I wouldn't say the patch effected it at all and cluster rockets are still way too slow and stun too short to have an impact. MK is not played more often due to Clap and most players still prefer to skill bash second. I'd say heroes mostly impacted by the patch (in a positive way) were: DL > KotG > Alchi > Others Hope to see you in TBR! Gl Hf June 27, 2018, 10:45:39 am |
