3-ways are the best thing there is in ffa. It's just 2 solos followed by another solo it's boring as fuck.

Oh, and

solo#1
solo#2

to

3way "omg he got 15k gold" "omg he got 7/7/7 heroes" "omg im dead now afk massing 20 griffons in the corner" manip is more fun?

for 2-4 hours?

Generic heroes, generic armies, generic counters fighting x9000 is more fun?

I'm on a mission to bring in fast&furious honorable play back into FFA. You shall see.

Yes that is interesting. Although I try to pick different heroes and with human you don't really have a generic army (except gryphon/tank I guess but that alone is pretty easy to beat, you have to add other units). It's sort of like that stand off at The Good, The Bad and The Ugly where it's 3 guys in a duel and everything is really tense, one wrong move and you could be dead. Certainly more exciting than 3 solos. Yesterday I had a game where it was me, an elf and an undead and it was pretty nerve racking because no one trusted one another to team. Too bad I got disconnected when I was making some progress.

You know Q, I tend to agree with the things you say more than with anyone else here =D

Ebo your whole post reeks of trying to convince everyone you have changed. all of what you said is some sort of samurai code of playing ffa. you could play that way, but then you are deciding things based on your own sense of what is 'DUMB' or 'HONORABLE'. Which is funny coming from a former maphacker who was known more for his "DUMB" phrases of "OMG GO DIE IN A FIRE" than for any skill.

You can play that way but as for 'better games' let me say two things:

1. FFA games are meant to be played and won firstly. They are only meant to be viewed as entertainment as a secondary. When a good player is in a game, his primary concern should not be replay entertainment value, it should be winning. And when 4 good players are all trying to win, replays are inherently entertaining.

2. The 3ways you talk of, like in the Finals of this past season, are often in my personal OPINION the most interesting to watch. Because as an experienced player I am interested in the decision making, the risks, the surprises the players take. Not whether they use chippo or not.

Yeah I know people do tend to change after like 9 years... right? No, wait, no way, everyone stays the same, and I'm still my 16 year old me.

[Q-veta]

It's quite depressing that you're as dumb as you were 9 years ago. For example I think I'm much smarter than I was when I was 16 which coincidentally is when I got rank 1 for the first time!

[KiLLyoSeLF]

Q, how did you improve on the infinitely gosu smart you were as a 16 year old?

[Q-veta]

I'm saying I'm smarter than 5 years ago because let's face it I was pretty dumb at 16 like most people. I of course got better because I played more games since then. I would have won FML too if Clan Lone didn't have a vendetta against me.

Clan Lone is dead, you wont have this excuse this time!

Aging does not make us smarter or wiser.
But it does give us more time to become smarter and wiser :P

I feel its spirit lives on. That will be my go to excuse.
