Good 1v1 Thread!

Same thing happened yesterday trying to fight you 3 and will continue to happen in every fight. We can't stay connected but we're still trying to play because we're close to rank. *shrug*

Just some list of events as I remember them in chronological order, The Oakrath can check me on the validity later.
In the first 2v2 you went LD right after i dealt with the 3 bears, 1 dev strike took you out at that point, then Sid ran for gv. (Not both LD)

The second 2v2 that turn 2v4: the 2v2 started...we fought for a bit... spitifs showed up, pew pewed... Rk showed up, zap zapped... Sid went LD, Dev strike... Turned to the rk, exploded... Looked at you running for GV (Not both LD)... killed spifits.
So there was 4 freeps active at one point, thus making it a 2v4.

Anyways, they were fun and very long fights, get new net.

Actually I was - and will always be LD in every fight at some point for various lengths until Comcast decides to fix it (going on a month now). Same with Lee as we live in the same house. But yes, good long fights against two very skilled players. I hope we'll get more opportunities when we have our net back to normal :)

Two fun fights with Somepig tonight near good grim.. The first time I caught her off guard, and won. The second time I didn't and lost.

Also, sorry for running away to SoP Bolesh, I thought for sure those other LC creeps were right behind you till Vin +1 came up and got ya.


The past few days have been strange in the fact that I find 1-2 creeps that seem to instantly explode into 92,000. I don't mean they were call outs, it was just like the creeps came out of no where. I am concerned that the orc stealth is gaining powers that we had not expected.

Had a nice re-match with Kynji tonight.

Didn't go so well. I knew it wouldn't when the initial stun happened and I looked down and saw...no yellow pots. :(

Then the 1.7k crit happened and I XX'd. lol

Also, Vikter (a mini) was a good fight. Got the drop on ya and was able to stay positioned, so the deck stacked in my favor, I'm afraid.

There was a solo champion running around as well. Had a nice fight with him in BV. Had to use Disappear to get CB off of him. One suggestion (don't take it personally, it was a nice fight), kiting me when you have two of my bleeds stacked on you will not end well, especially if the kiting solely consists of you shooting the bow at me. Though, I believe you were trying to get me over-eager and get those bears on me perhaps? If I've learned anything from Cass, it's stay away from the bears! Those and leafculls are the most dangerous creatures in the world!

And, last, but not least, poor Budhorn! I think you may have been having connection issues today, though.

First fight was a 2v2 if jaiyne had not gone link dead than you would not have caught up to her to get the kb so your one hit wonder thing does not really work out saying ld would not have made difference.
Second fight I went ld at 2.5k morale on my screen and the defiler at 800ish with myself and jaiyne fighting you both. Whoever came to help I have no idea but again you would not have killed me with one dev and you would not have caught up to me if I had not gone ld.

The fights were fun. Just wish we both did not have connection issues.

Nibbs, the only cure for Comcast LD's is AT&T U-verse. Bast has been going up and down in wow a lot recently, and he rails constantly against Comcast.

A) I never dipped below 1100 morale.

B) Get new internet because the LD thing is silly

C) Star and me cant be beat by the likes of a dwarf with swift feet

Frankly, although we live just outside the city of Boston, we have no other broadband options other than Comcast. Trust me, we would have already kicked them to the curb if we had another option.

I live in Boston, and I'm using Verizon DSL, which I find adequate. I actually didn't have problems with Comcast's service, I just hate them because they're evil.

If you have good cell reception and a capable phone, you should try tethering.

We really had no issues at all until a month ago, and they just haven't done jack for us to fix it in our area.

Unfortunately Verizon is not available in our loft building.

Thought about tethering and may look into that more.

Mostly though, ./rude Comcast.

I've heard good things about ATT U-verse. It was on the expensive side last time I looked at it however.

Actually, for the service and speed we get, the price is good. Comcast has to be at the bottom rung of things really. Slightly above dial up. Wide Open West (WOW) also provided very good service and speed.

Haha I was out of pots too, so I thought for sure you had me...I got lucky with my crits. I also knew my raid was up the hill, and The Plague was down below the rock, so I was shocked we didn't get interrupted. I liked the rock fight!

Most definitely. I don't think I've ever fought on such a terrain like that. High up, small radius. Can't get down or broken legs and you're a ranged opponent. Not as forgiving with missteps in trying to maintain positional damage.

I thoroughly enjoyed it! I'll have to find us some more secluded rocks in the future! :P

Is that really stable enough to work for gaming?

Doubtful; tethering can provide decent bandwidth, but not a low-latency connection, which is a must for gaming.

Legrand, I was certain that I was in for a world of hurt when you caught me fighting that hoobit.

I attacked only noticing as my yell was firing off that you weren't doing anything (probably wanted to wait for me to finish the NPC) and which point I thought I was really dead.

And then we fought and you went squish. Thanks for sticking it out to the bitter end and not running.

On another note, does having the Sabercat out also make the LM do less damage? It felt like you were throwing playdough at me and that your cat had been declawed.

*scratches Lore Master off the hit list*

I'm loving my spider, despite my low rank, it seems that the class can really put up a good fight in most 1v1s.

I've had a nice 1v1 with Blits. I'm sad that a reaver showed up in the end, but he didn't do anything except hit him once.

Yeah. That's what I thought. :\

Still need to scratch warden off that list? ;) I could arrange an attempt at that!

Yeah I've already had a few run ins with Wardens and I can honestly say that unless/until they get nerfed and nerfed hard there are only 2 ways a Warleader could possibly kill a Warden 1v1.

a) The Warden is a noob. Never interupts an induction, isn't fully built (I don't count underleveled freeps for the hit list), goes afk halfway through the fight, yadda yadda.

b) The Warden chases me off the right side of the TA waterfall.

Although I suppose that if a Warden got 1 minute of broken legs to start the fight off I would have a chance, but that would never happen.

However, if you wanted to help me get Ranger off the hit list that's another matter entirely . . .

To many to mention over the last few days. Artic, Mawz, Moarpiez, Bumpkiss, and many many more. Kudos to all of you! Ive had a blast and really want to say thank you all. Just a quick note for those of you who may want to know.

1. I may kill you on your way out from the rez, but if you not wanting to 1v1, blue, or green, after killing you once on your way out ill let you go. I don't like killing a guy over and over for renown if he doesn't want to fight. Im just ruining his day by not letting him get were he wants to go.

2. If I am with a single friend or two from my kin at the rez, we are looking for 1v1s. I will always stand back unless;

A. You run.

B. Someone joins, in which I will kill the one coming.

3. For all freeps. If I am 1v1'ing and you stroll up hoping to grab dibs on it. I WILL STAND BACK AND LET WHOEVER IM FIGHTING FIGHT YOU. Imo 2v1 is not fair and I have no fun or satifaction in crushing someone, unless its in a fair fight.

4. Im out here for fun.Period.


Lastly, I thought Id post my now favorit screen shot of mine.

I had come up and decided to watch you guys. Got out the pie, but two of you came down to fight. Only saw round 4 when the two of you came down to fight, but when I died, I looked up and all of you (I'd guess at least 15 or so.) were just watching. It was a ton of you, all just watching me. Guess thats why your called "creeps". It was an amazing moment and I lol'd so hard. Thank you all for the fun. Peace out and cya all out there! -Baskloin

Well there was only one that wanted to fight you but the other was on follow and went afk. Yes, I found it rather funny too. Thanks for doing what you do.

How are fights against RK's? Have you had one yet?

Just curious, because I'm guessing that low ranked spiders (low rank anything, really) would get obliterated. Everyone keeps saying spiders are so fun... suppose I'll try one out someday.
