yo, i was thinking about quitting playing random and going with one race next fml season, so IS THERE A SPECIFIC RACE U`D LIKE TO SEE ME PLAYING?
first i will tell u why i like playing a certain race ( and since i like every race , i am playing random, although u could make an order like ud=hu> elf > orc )
UD: + the movementspeed, nuking, dreadlord, never easy to succeed vs
decent players ( playing other races ) , use of underused casters,
good rushing ability
- i am not fan of hit and run, when i have the feeling that this is the
only chance of winning, weak basedefense /low hp buildings u usually
lose in a base-race everytime, donīt like mass gargs, rly hate air
battles vs chippo elf
HU: + ability to counter everything, u always can easily kill big, mass
towered bases, fast expands/ ressources, pal/mk + x combo just
rapes without the need of exceptional micro, good scouting with
towers/ gyros
- donīt like mass towers, but sometimes it is only way to win ( higher
lvl bnet games with 2+ tower/hoard humans making games so damn
long and and annoying >.<), ur army needs many adjustments to
opponents army to be effective, for a good control u often would
need 4/5 control groups, i rly dislike everything over 3
ELF + u can chose so many different heroes which work decently, moonwells,
starfall, u only need to upgrade one upgrade-tree since u usually will
mix those units, staff, nature/ mystique -style, RoC final mission rocks!
rebuilding ability, dryad dispell
- i always want to take 4 heroes to be prepared for every game
situation, slow army, i like hipporiders but i think they suck 95% of the
time, no str hero, quite weak base, lacking bigger damage-output
wihtout addition of chims
ORC + movement/attack speed, fighting skills, healing with ward/SH, nasty
looking and effective turtlebases, very nice shop, scouting
- ur wins usually does not mean much since u have best army, deadly
herocombo and u can play sloppy and still win games with ease,
hunger for lumber ( thats why the n8elves hate them so much ! ), ur
army is only complete with many upgrades, u can either chose the
imba cheese to win or the lame ( e.g. bats ),
So u might like to give me feedback and help with going for one race by chosing from the following answers :
1. stick with random, thats the king-choice and we all fear the change
2. go undead, so u will always be underestimated, ZE DEAD HATE ZE LIVING AND WE LIKE ZOMBIEMOVIES
3. pick human, since u cannot be wrong with this choice, being versatile in ways of playing aggressive/passive and fml was mainly won by humans
4. chose elf, cuz this race is underrepresented and everyone needs a tree-hug from time to time
5. Make the horde proud, increase the number of orcs in games so it wonīt be so easy to team them and show us some hexa-stomp, never getting tired of watching the imba
6. no one cares, u are a big boy who can decide by your own
7. who gives a damn about that, i beat u anyways whichever race u are, because i am simply better

there you go :D

4. The Ents are underrepresented! Plus I'd like to see more replays with NE in them so I can learn to play better.
-
Anything but HU. Any more than 1 HU in a game makes me /wrist. Seriously, can we have a limit on HU players in the league? Annoying as hell.
-
Stay a versatile player, there aren't many players like you in ffa.
-
so I can learn to play better.
Here's an easy one, scout. If a ud near you is hitting a one of 2 hoarding orcs on murgul, this is NOT the time to hit the UD. It's time to hit the other damn orc and stop him from hoarding.
-
To be honest, I hate random players (a bit less than orc) since it's harder to remember how they play, and it's almost impossible to have a solid plan before the game
but if you want to choose, i would suggest ud or ne (that way ppl are amazed when you win, and can't blame abusing imbalanced!)
-
There's only 3 orcs in FML right now I believe (me, Das, yz). Join the dark side of the force.
EDIT: And Persuade but I'm not sure if he's a full-time orc player.
P.S. My real suggestion is to perhaps pick the race based on the map + your opponents, like I did during my semi. Don't just stick with one only.

Yeah sorta like darkness plays 999 ffa games as same race/hero combo/army, then goes 1 game with a different race, loses it like a boss, then goes on to give advices and look all wise and shit.

2. Show us some undead caster abuse and easy base selling/rebuilding actions. Be the first undead who will play lich,naga,dk and rape some asses with focusing.

somehow the editing is messed up , although it looked nice when i posted :icon_confused:.
thanks for the comments so far, no clear tendency visible though :icon_razz:

Got bitter feelings about a game?

I don't like "uneducated suicide" in game, and try to educate against it, when possible.

Thanks I guess, I'd like to think I've gotten that far at least haha. I was more talking about unit/hero combinations and getting to see those in play.

Why Naga? I do Dk/lich/mk

You've seen very few of my replays to make such a silly comment. I have changed races or hero combos several times in past FML games. But in the end you first have to pick the race you are strongest with and have the most experience with, then second decide if it's the correct race/combo for the matchup/map.

I know, I know, I just wanted to use the phrase "loses it like a boas".

play random - true testament of skill at this game, winning with any race
you might win more games by ultraperfecting one race but then you're just playing the same role over and over. only by being able to play any character or role can you be AL PACINO!

I actually agree with this statement.
-
Play elf if you don't want to play random just because they're underrepresented in FML.
