Good 1v1 Thread!

Every server has one. We should have (a new?) one, even though there probably aren't a ton of 1:1s happening, as most everyone is grouped in some way shape or form. Still, they do happen.

No flames or QQ please! Can include smaller engagements too - even if they aren't 1:1s. 1 v 2, etc.

I'll start.

Thanks to Toothless for several recent fights. Very tough warg for me to win against without all my attention focused on it. Thanks for never running from me when I am solo! I think I can safely confirm that you do in fact have teeth!

Thanks also to Postoffice for running around without a constant bubble, although sometimes I only see you charge into a mass of freeps (which seems to amuse you a great deal), I've enjoyed our 1v1 fights when we get them! /bow

Good fights with Brugrat and Gahroul recently as well. If I know you're teamed up, I'm keen to find you both. I love white wargs who are supposed to be other colors ;)

Also, I miss Gii! He was always solo. Come back!

Yeah I had a pretty good 1v1 last week with Gahroul. I had to pop a bunch of CDs and it was a good fight.

Last night during a time out in the big game, I had the pleasure of having a nice 1v1 with Arctic after he completely blew up a burg. He regen'ed, stealthed up and pounced. He blew hips but didnt run, he used it offensively and I appreciate that.

I am developing a strong antipathy for lay of the hammerhand. It's like "yay, only 500 health left" and then "****, I'm not doing any damage."

But, I do enjoy a challenge :)



I had a couple of good fights yesterday: a very, very close fight with Lalgo, and an epic fight with Cynthri. Also, I got totally destroyed by an RK whose name I can't remember.

And, a few days ago vs. Silencing:

It's a compliment. Most wargs I do not have to use that with. Most wargs I don't even need to pot, although I will usually pot a stun ;)

Not sure if you're all damage traited or what, but you hit just about harder than any other warg I have fought recently (normally I am fighting at least 2 at once, so it's a little hard to judge). My shadow mit is very high (for a light armor class), so perhaps I need to bulk up on more melee defense again.

I have damage for health and damage for power traited. I suspect that most wargs don't do damage for health, since most wargs have more health than I do.

Really, I don't think you need to bulk up anything. As far as I can tell, you're the toughest minstrel out there.

I've had a lot of good 1 vs. 1's lately... Brugrat, Arctic, Gahroul, Barkh, Bizzrat, Kharis, Dinnerplate, Necksnapper, plus a bunch of others I don't dare try to write or I'll butcher the spelling. It has been a great week for 1 vs. 1!

I also quite enjoyed the fight with the creep group who let me live with 39 morale, and then we killed cows together. So much lol this past week :)

I had an epic duel between my guard and Yargax 3.5 years ago, it was awesome!

The only real 1v1 I've had lately was with Arctic last week, thanks for that! I totally had to change some traits and stuff after you kicked my ***, looking forward for round 2!

I found Ashebrand (warden) halfway between EC and a red stab the other evening. I was on my reaver.

He fought me to the death, neither of us running to NPCs that were very close by. This was a very rare treat, since most people tend to run to NPCs (on both sides) when they start to lose a fight. Not this time. I did end up winning, and he never called in help. EC must have been very tempting when he got below 50%, yet he stayed on the road circle strafing away. Thank you for the rare treat Ashe.

I am also finding that when you come across Kynji, she is very willing to go 1v1, and I have found myself standing back and waiting for a victor when I see her fighting someone. There have been times where my group of 4 or 5 will stand there across from her as we decide whose turn it is.. and she waits patiently for someone to step forward. It really in entertaining. Of course, when she wins, she has to die... but many of us creepers are learning a fun 1v1 can be had when you see that red dress.

I was going to 1v1 you on Lugz hill two days ago and we even went through all the pleasentries, such as jumping and bowing and laughing and I was walking up to and then you made a mistake. You doused yourself with too much Essence of HOT Elf Chick and the creepball downwind caught it and well your pretty red dress was in tatters. I kinda creid a bit for you.

It has been for almost a year, I always forget to buy it back. >.<

Hmm... lets see... Clotted, E- something (defiler, rank 6?) Fardochee (aka fardouche) uhh Boom (<3s) Toothless Daizee and tailmange (not 1v1 but damn that was a fun 2v1 to 2v2 to 2v1 again) and more to come when I get back home :)

Arctic caught me typing today, but it was no biggy since he backed off after his pounce to clear my turn the tables timer.

It was a really fun fight. I decided to see if I could take him without using cooldowns (well i used a heal pot, but not pledge, warrior heart, man heal, or deep breath)...I couldnt quite do it, though it was really close. Very good use of your sprint and disappear Arctic. That final FM stun was the determiner of the fight.

I also almost had a 1 v1 with a spider in HH today. I cant recall the name.. Psu I think? I ganked him while killing a farmer 10 minutes before so this time I stood in front of him while he finished killing his npc, let him regent to full ( i wanted to see how i could do in a fair fight) then stepped up and started swinging. A burg jumped in, so i backed off and left, but I enjoyed the fight up until that point.

Kynji, it is my turn next BTW. You beat Dinner, so now it is my turn to get pwned.

edit*

I totally forgot when I first got out there today I ran into Faradoche in HH, who completely kicked my butt. he still had over 1k morale left when I died, even though a farmer wandered into our fight near the end.. ~S~ doche

This thread is only a couple years late.

Thaluil stinks! But I am not sure we have had a thread like this before, just stories on the what happened this day thread stuff.

I had some fun fights the past few weeks... Far and Mawz are some tough reavers and always fun fights. Arctic(spelling?) one of the only wargs I find solo a lot. Gahroul(spelling?) found me a few times. Then the people that are forced to 1v1...
Had some fun 2v1s with dreadwarg and tah, had some disappointing 2v1s with some mean wargs but was still fun. Need to work on my gambit rotations for you guys.

Yay 1v1s!

That was a fun fight Leekae, but you hit like a bloody freight train. XD

Edit: Read the rest of the the thread, lol. I've really enjoyed all the 1v1s that I've gotten a chance to have lately ( Kynji, Leekae, Fames, Thaluil, Silencing, Kara, Zarcharius, Jetsu, a warden who's name starts with "A" but I can't remember, and half a dozen others) . Thanks to all the folks who let the fight go to the end, even if you blew the winner up afterward =P.

Heh, I'm glad I made an impression Fames. One of the toughest RK I've fought out there, though I'm still chasing Radar and Cele around.

I was wondering what took you Snookumz. Really enjoyed that one, very close fight there.

I was only on my warg once in the past week so I didn't get too many solo oppurtunities, but I had an awesome 1v1 with the burg Kaelodo! We both burned every pot and CD we had with me living with only a couple hundred morale left. /salute :D

Well then. Had some fun 1v1vs with Artic, Brugrat, Garhoul past few days. Nice job guys, I'm trying not to use Controlled Burn cause using Fervour always ends up being a close fight against you guys.

Better late than never!

I love reading about all these great fights! I probably won't get much time out there until the weekend, but I will be looking for ... all of you (well, the ones I can see!) when I can get a few minutes.

Haven't really done much the past two weeks (have a captain to gear or something), but if I had to give credit to people, I'd have to say definately Kynji, Cynthri and what's likely a long list of wardens whose names escape me when I play my warg. Most people run though, which makes me sad...but I can say there have been a few people (whose names again escape me...I'll figure it out and get back to you when I play more) who I managed to underestimate and they beat me to death.

On my spider, Trinstar's warden is the only freep I've fought who I can't consistently manage to beat...a few years ago maybe I'd have eventually figured something out, but nowadays I only bring my spider out late at night to try and find 1v1s when I'm really bored and PvP is really dead, so I'm content with fights more or less coming down to something like "whoever gets the opening stun wins". Not to say there aren't other people I couldn't beat on my spider, or who could give me a good fight, I just haven't fought them.

On my captain...idk, she's not good enough to consistently beat anyone yet, and the mechanics of soloing on a captain certainly aren't helping. I'll learn though...nothing is impossible, and if I can solo on a defiler I can do it on a captain too.

As for my champ...idk, I haven't done any PvMP on her since the cap was 50. Bloodbourne, Warginator and some warleader named Happyorc I apparently fought early in book 10 (I have a screenshot to prove it, so I assume it was a good fight) get honorable mention, even though it was ages ago and I imagine none of them really play any more. Nowadays anyone could beat my champ probably...all my icons look like they're angry at me and I no longer have any idea what I'm doing.

Hm...I'll get back to this probably. And more people should at least take a shot at 1v1s...if you stand and fight you can at least feel better about yourself, whereas if you just turn and run you'll die more often than not.

I completely wrecked a Guardian a few days ago.

Lost a couple of fights with Wilandria thanks to the RNG and being distracted at the beginning of the fight (typing messages, checkng wartabd, etc).

Killed an LM with gravity at the TA fall and made the mistake of trying to finish off the hunter who survived the gravity (I missed my jump and broke my legs for ~1 minute. Ouchie!)

A week or so before that I killed that hunter and . . . Duvelon(?) in front of TR.

I got Vinlasses in front of LC last week as well although several AFK people came back and decided to help me since they hadn't heard me say, "This one's mine." Of course he was at ~1,100 health versus my ~5,000 so the fight was almost concluded . . . =P

And I developed a revenge conspiracy theory when Vin brought his whole raid down on me by the TR rez. Maybe if I'd started running when I first got tracked I could've gotten the raid to die going over the waterfall, but oh well.

Good 1v1 Necksnapper-1

Had a good 1v1 with Oggy.

Sorry about that second one getting interrupted.

It's on! If we ever find ourselves alone, anyway, lol.

And, thanks Tail and Bizzaro for not smashing me when that spider decided to fight me....at least I got him before Burz and co. sliced me up :)

Edit: I am specifically not going to name Rutroh because he destroyed me, ahem.

I would like to go on record as stating that Postoffice charges into battle WITHOUT my clearance, and I do not wish to be interpreted as the warleader that is unable to appropriately and accurately bubble her reavers. I have died 100 times following this beast into the ranks, and likewise Snook. Been fun all the way, boys. :)

WTH! I said we needed a good 1v1 thread, and everyone was like "nooo, so and so tried one time and failed"

>.>

Anyway, had lots of good 1v1's, necksnapper, Gii, Fardochee, Oakrath to mention a few.

Chopsticks *snickers* :p

Lots of players I've forgotten, don't take it personally!

:cool:

I actually felt bad, as I wondered if perhaps you were slow to respond because of how often I end up dancing with you instead of fighting.

I don't know that I have ever taken down Jaiyne, I think I am one of those wargs she shrugs off.

I can only remember having one true 1v1 with Lee which was an epic fight at the ETA ford, with Lee winning with something like 48 morale.

I do want to give props to a hunter who tried valiantly to take me down yesterday afternoon, started with an A but can't remember the name, sorry. I happened to get several KBs in a row against him and I think he decided to try and hunt me. We had a good 5 minute battle outside of TR; (my cds were down) he tried every trick in the book, used an impressive number of traps and good use of camo. He finally DF'ed after getting a second fear off on me while my pot was down, but I didn't even mind as it is rare that a hunter (not counting Celebiel) can give an interesting fight to a warg.

And finally, I need to apologize to a couple of wardens, whom I generally ignore as a class. I tried pouncing a blue ranked warden that I didn't recognize to test his mettle, only for him to start to completely destroy me. As I was out of pots at the time of the my pounce I cowardly sprinted away at half health with barely having made a dent in him. Similarly I tried to nom an afk GS warden north of Lugz but was worried about GS riding back so burned through my power as quickly as possible trying to finish him, of course he came back with about 1k morale left and I was completely out of power and he would have easily beaten me as I had to even regen power to disappear, but disappear I did.

So, sorry, I usually will fight solo battles to the end, but reserve the right to change my mind.

Any warg traited all damage always gives me a very hard fight. I don't see that a lot of them do at the moment though. A lot of the solo wargs do, I notice (and that's how my warg was always traited as a solo warg). Plus, anytime I don't crit consistently, I probably won't win - or win very narrowly. But a lot of wargs hips and run, instead of finishing me off with an offensive re-pounce ;)

Fighting two ranked wargs at once is always going to end in my death, even if one of them dies too :)

So most warg fights for me are very much based on the RNG it seems like.

I get a couple of 1v1's here and there. I am usually caught off sides though (TA Lawn or inside :)) if I get too bored. I am not on as much anymore but if you see my guard out there, I'll 1v1 you if you are willing. Hell, I'll 2+v1 you if I think I have a shot at a kill. I normally won't use NPC's unless I am outnumbered and I laugh when people think pulling my guard through NPC's is going to do anything. I'll keep better track of who I fight I always look at the name but can't remember the specific fights off the top of my head. Salute and bow to the people who stand up to fight me.

We kinda waited for you to finish your fight (get your points) and then we killed you. :)

As far as Rutroh, I would recommend not wasting your time with him.

I was on my hunter the other night, died to him like 3 times on 1 vs 1, he finished me off like 4 times when I happened to win a fight against another creep, and after changing a couple of traits and using a different strat to kill him, he used his sprint to run to TR to deny me the points. Yeah after he killed me like 7 times, funny part is that on many of those encounters I could have just drop combat and DF, but I figured he deserved the points (I was wrong) as he's just an opportunist that hates to die and not really a good 1 on 1 opponent. So yeah after he completely healed up at TR, he came back out to try to gank me, I slowed him and DF right on his face. :)

*Edit*

Though Wargs will be wargs right?

I think that was me, Rut lol but I've had tons of wargs do that, so might not be you

Sigh, guess this is what I get for singing your praises. Yes, I used sprint when you got the drop on me to heal up, but came right back out to fight you. Sprint is a skill, I use it to catch up to mounted freeps, I use it to get out of combat to heal, I use it to break combat so I can pounce again and yes, sometimes I even use it to escape a fight. Guess that makes me a bad person.

Not you, I know better as you would and have kicked my ***. A while back I interrupted someone who I guess was a kinmate of your dueling you on his reaver and you proceeded to smack me down for my troubles.

I honestly think I would have better odds against a guard than I would against a well played warden.

Had another good 1v1 with oakwrath, was doing alright, had fear pots, it was the second fear that got me though, pot was still on cd.
From then on it was almost impossible to out dps his HoT's unless i got a lucky stun :p

Too bad we got interrupted in the end.

You can use your skills whatever way you want. At the same time, for 1vs1, running away to heal up back to full and then trying to come back to attack just so you make sure to always have the element of surprise on your side and never against you is overkill. Is not like the sprint skill was designed to heal you back to full. But anyways, you can defintely use it that way, but I wouldn't call that a true 1vs1, thus the point of commenting it on this thread as a warning for those looking for real 1vs1.

Had an awesome 1v1 with Sars' rank0 reaver.. heeeeheeeeee

Sars rerolled Spinetwist?

In other news I fought a Ranger near EC and was winning when the ranger decided to flee (and more creeps kept stumbling on the fight).

Next time, I'll catch my Ranger at the LC Hotspot and he will be all mine! MINE!!!

Or he could be like you... 1v1 you and then you call in the rest of your raid after you lose to finish off your opponent.

Nandir doesn't raid anymore. He is usually solo or in a group of a few at most...

This thread is for GOOD 1:1s btw. Please try to not flame if possible :)

Eh, it was like 3 or 4 months ago.

Rutroh is a nice guy and a good warg. He doesn't need anyone saying that he's a cheap player, especially from the likes of Dalgumpizdur.

I got my 700th KB off of Celebiel last night. :D Man was I rusty on Invisus... I haven't played him in well over a month.

/agree.

Also - giving a little shout to Peeba, who might be one of the most aggressive wargs on this server right now. I swear, that warg will stop at absolutely nothing to get its kill, lol.

Well looks like all of a sudden I can use my old forum account again which reminds me I have to fix that signature :)

I don't remember that fight you speak of, and doesn't really help the fact that you don't specify the area nor the classes we were using.

Didn't our old good 1v1 thread end up going in an eerily similar direction? I forget...and they probably purged it by now. Let's try to keep this one relatively on-topic for at least 7 pages though! Can make a game of it or something!

Speaking of which, I had a series of amusing 1v1s with Oakrath last night. Unfortunately for me he got better each time while I stayed the same, and each and every time someone ended up interrupting. Oh well...I did learn one very valuable lesson though: large rocks are not my friends.

Sorry if it seems like I was pointing at you specifically, that's just a coincidental result of my post appearing right below yours! I meant more the comment you were responding to (not that I'm calling him out specifically either)...that just tends to be how these things start. Or something.

I think it was because people thought it was somehow related to metagaming.

I had a couple of kinda meh 1v2s last night versus a rank 7 reaver and a rank 4 spider. I killed them both times only using a pledge, so I was kinda disappointed in their performance, probably why I couldn't remember their names...

I had some great 1v1s with mostly reavers. Necksnapper Fardochee
Some Wargs. Barkh Arctic
spiders= none they all suck :)

Jetsu is tough as nails, Rahmona is impossible to take down, and Thalz is one skilled hunter. Though after finding out who Thalz is, it's not surprising. =) Oh yea, had a real close one against Agadriel too. Nice fights all.

Well most run from me but this is a few that are on my mind.
Kinji very good fights with you i think im up one :)
Cynthri had good spars with this warden.
Ethuaian hard one this one he even man heal one time.
Wilendria allways have good spars with ya.
Anasasi very good burg one of my top 3 but stop buying all the buffs in our spars lol.
Jetsu on crazy little burg and cooks well on the open fire.
Fames only had 1 fight with him and a warg jump in i think i was going to lose anyway.
Jaiyne had 1 or 2 good fights with but now every time we find each other she got friends.
ps and she hate me :(
Leekae had a few good 1v1's with him we both die in a spar on gv hill one time.
But now you run away all the time :(
Thats all i can think of at this time cya on the field :)

Had a fun 1v1 with Tailmange last night. One of the few Wargs that still gives my RK a go solo. /salute

I don't hate you Snapper. I just hate DR in a 1:1 ;) Oh and your name still freaks me out :p

We've had some great fights before, definitely. I'm still solo much of the time before primetime, but I'll call in Lee if you have company ;) I look forward to many more!

Thanks to Purukhai for the 1:1s today, one on his BA and one on his WL. Both I played really poorly and the second one ended in a stalemate. He looked like he was in a hurry though ;)

Still, was nice to fight a high ranked BA 1 on 1.

/bow

Oh and I tried to 1v1 a cow, but Dinner and Snook came in and I guess, he was their friend or something...

uhhh... what's a 1v1 exactly?

I think a few of the best 1vs1's I've had is with Trins warden. Tough little hobbit.
I got close, but no win ;) (obviously excluding wardens I havn't 1 on 1)

I still want another rematch.

Outside that, I'd give it to any Rk that's gotten the jump on me.
If you arn't all over that RK, they are going to be all over you. Sometimes it's just who gets the first move. Depending on the player, of course.

A good 1v1 is when both parties are satisfied with the outcome and/or suck it up and except the it.

Most 1v1's are biased, because there is alot of emotion involved in pvp. The few that arn't, and those that just see it as PvP, probably posted.

So, back to a 1v1.

People that liked a 1v1 they had. Lets leave it at that =)

best 1v1 imo is any creep that will stay even if he's gonna lose (which are very few)
there are some that even run from 2v1 in the end if they see that their buddy died and their fate will be the same.

ty for the compliment neck but that was the 1st time i used a DP buff other than out of combat run speed and regen, but it was cuz i was getting HUGE skill lagg, plus u gotta admit i never use actual cooldowns for you to even the playing field (other than knives out which is 2 minutes)

<3 fardo
<3 arctic
<3 wally
<3 neck
<3 gii

and the others i may forget to mention, ty for the 1v1s :)

(p.s
@oakrath : I WILL KILL YOU ONE DAY! i just gotta use power pots i think lol)

So there was this guard camping the Lugz rez circle, whose name I can't remember. I think it started with an E. Anyway, Coli and I attacked him at the same time, and he killed Coli, who released and came back, and then he killed me, and I released and came back, and by this time there was a defiler (whose name I also can't remember) attacking him too, but he still managed to kill Coli again before the defiler finally got the KB on him. I'd imagine (or I hope at least) that he used every cooldown he had, but still, it was very impressive.

Almost got Tipere in a 1v2 (he hid behind a rock at 600, and I died to the warg). It was a good fight regardless.

Lol, well I guess that says even more about my level of skill, or lack thereof =)

Thanks for the 1:1s Fardo. I couldn't crit on you even once, and then should have waited for my cooldowns before trying again but I am stubborn. Hopefully I'll do better next time.

/bow

Editing to add all the other creeps I had the privilege of fighting tonight. I really enjoyed them all. Someone took my crits away tonight! Darkhness and Rutroh (sorry, I got rolled back in the middle of our fight and then it seemed to bug you out when I logged back in) great fights too.

You know you're rolled back when your pots go gray and your maps disappear :(

I enjoyed our fights tonight as well. Champs are so restricted in being competitive with ranked Reavers because of our CB C/D. I also enjoyed the spars with Fardochee, well played!

The fight at the lugz rez where it was you, Fardochee and then Rutroh was pretty fun too, even if it was 2v2, then 2v3.

Good fighting everyone.

Always enjoy it.

Had a lot of good fights today in my push for R9 on the puppy (only 5k away now), but these stood out. A couple 1v1s with Kynji, 2v2s pitting me and Postoffice against Kynji and Garrath, a never ending draw against Harialabos (shield guard). After getting wrecked by Rauva (that slow is unreal), I ended the night when Radarastiel and I ended up killing each other.

Im not a kiting rk so im hoping to crit at least 2-3 skills to win, but i think it makes the fight better if the creep have a chance to win it.(For some players, it means i have no skills lol)
Don't have a lot of great 1v1 where it is the creep attacking me first, probably a lot of them would have love me if i would not dismount of my horse, but still have some where the creep give all he got to try.(talking about rank6-7 and lower)

Mawz, Fardochee and Postoffice are almost the only reaver to fight me 1v1. Necksnapper fight sometimes, sometimes use his charge to get away but this 4 reavers are my biggest challenge walking on 2 feet. Loose some of this fight, but win a lot of them too, sometimes easily, sometimes with less than 500 morale, one of the greatest fight with a reaver was with Mawz who wins with less than 500 morale but stay besides me for his dying rage death, good sportmanship.

Grupchuk, Aglarat, Barkh, Tailmange, my tribemates of Fanged Brood, and i probably forgot some wargs name here are some of the good 1v1 i had with this class, sometimes the knockdown help for a good fight, when we use stun pots and they do nothing, but always funny to try to heal the much we can when they disappear waiting for the next pounce. Don't stop trying, some of you know it is possible to win.(brand help very much for that)

Only 3 spiders name come to my mind for good 1v1, Buppkiss, Webwise and Tipere. Sadly for Tipere, he is the only one of them that don't win at least once. Hard to kite a tactical dps and one trick helping me to win against them, using a roots pots to get out of the mez, keeping the stun pots for the cj or the 8sec stun. Still need to learn the icon of the range debuff to pot it faster.

Thanks to every creeps who still try to fight rune-keeper 1v1, keep this in mind, rune-keeper needs some luck to crit at 4-5k, we need to apply 2 buffs with 15% chance to apply and they only have 15sec duration so you could be the lucky one that will get hit with an epic conclusion for 800-1k.

Lol hopefully I can 1v1 that burg you were rolling with yesterday again with NO interferences :p When you noticed I was alone I had to thankyou for backing off and letting us go at it though :D

Sorry I forget the name, but I had a good 1v1 with a guard which beat me good, I think he lived with 1800 morale. I haven't been active on my warg lately so midway through I remembered it would probably be a good idea to power drain him hehe. Good fight none the less he was obviously a well played guard :o

i dont remember the name of the burg, i was not rolling with him, he was following me

Most of the icons for debuffs/dots are the same as the icons for the skills (for the caster). I'm not sure if it's the same case with this skill or not, but here it is anyway: Venomous Haze.

Had some great fights last night! (Barkh I will get you yet...lol).

Had an amazing 1v1 with Coli....he was winning the entire fight but I was able to keep myself alive for a ridiculously long time with some lucky resists. Karathyn came wandering by at the end to point and laugh at me (he was clear that he was not going to heal me lol. He did throw me a rez though!)

It's true. I don't heal someone in a 1v1 (whatever a 1v1 is anyway, I wouldn't know :P)
I"m full of rezzes! I just wish they had the same induction as an RK...

RK envy. Always. Lots of it.

Speaking of your RK, do you mention the awesome 1v1 you had in the Barrow Downs Survival Skirmish the other day? I am still giggling about that one.

How dare you mention that! But yes, I crit EC for 5.5k (more than my health) on a mob with 100% reflect. That's right, I 1v1'd myself and lost (or won).

*solemnly awards you a medal*


It's okay, I was fighting a Priestess of Vengeance and didn't realize the reflect was up and killed myself with two crits yesterday too. Not quite as epic as you one shotting yourself, however :D

Dunno if you realize this, but one player owns a toon in each of your class lists of good 1v1s. He plays all of his toons fearlessly and is quite good at them all =)

Had 2 of the Best Guardian versus Warleader fights yesterday night (my time)!

Revex (The Guardian) was running around in Sword and Board looking for solos, using Threat Stance, and Wearing Gear that had been dyed Ered Luin Blue. He wins in my book just for that!

Anyway, I lost the first fight but caught him later when we both had all our cooldowns up and I won. This was without a doubt the most evenly matched 1v1 match up I have ever had the pleasure of fighting. And to top it all off this is what my War tab looked like after our second match:

http://i929.photobucket.com/albums/a...nShot00199.jpg

I definitely look forward to running into Rev again!

Had 2 1:1s with Arctic today. The first actually ended not at all being a 1:1 because like 3 BAs and a warg turned up.

/release
/ride out of rez

Then we fought again almost immediately after. Yikes, I don't usually crit on creeps all that much and almost never consecutively. Sorry Arctic, lol! Then I froze when you were almost dead, but I could still auto-attack (something is wrong with my connection atm)...but I think maybe my auto attack killed you ;)

Thank you for coming back to find me and giving me a fair shot!

/bow

Also Irontusk and I fought while I was on the phone (I heard a growl and checked my screen to see I was being mauled to death), but he disappeared as another freep rode into view. I don't think Wil would have interrupted us! He stays Blue I think because it makes people underestimate him. Let me say this clearly - do not underestimate him, lol.

Nice 1v1 with Arctic. When I got tracked I dismounted and got ready (healing-rock, food, etc.) so I had the advantage of being battle-readied, but still it was a close fight.


Edit: Also good 1v1 with Rutroh, /salute!

Had quite possibly my best performance ever vs a burg today, unfortunately for Jetsu. And in appreciation for Fardochee not jumping in on his guard, I then fought him 1v1 and lost miserably.

/concur!

Speaking for overall performance on a wide front, I'd go so far as to say in my opinion, he's the best player on Landroval.

I've never had a good 1v1 in LOTRO...:( Before I log on though....:eek:

Gutlard *goes back to the raid* out!

There are reavers in The White Hand who are better than you were on your Reaver, at least when I was fighting you.

I agree with Dine and Jamers.

I agree.

Dineanddash and Superstardestroyer are really good too. And again really good for white hands.



Long time no see!

Thanks for the compliments. (Someone called me by my full name *blush*)

I have also been going to the 'Moors a couple times in the recent weeks and always had a good time.

Elastoplast, I really enjoyed our couple duels, especially the one when you stopped attacking me and let me finish the warg who started ganking me in the middle of it, before finishing our business (!!!).

Arctic, I love to know that you will most likely always be between GV and TA, hidden somewhere :)

Necksnapper, I am a big fan of your fearless charges in packs of freeps!


My word to you all creeps: Respect. I appreciate the fights I've had so far, I just wish there was more "even" fights out there AND less wargs to stealth out of battle when they are about to lose. Other than that, hat tip to all you servants of Angmar :)

Stop talking to my master that way!

I'm sure your reavers are good in raids but this is a 1v1 thread and so far the reavers worth mentioning is far and mawz, white hand reavers 1v1 not impressive from my point of view thus far.

/wave

more words

Lee and I are having major modem connection issues in our house, sooooo anyone we have tried to 1:1 and were obviously frozen for, thank you for not killing us...or /rage for killing us ;)

I hope it's all fixed up when I am back from Florida!

ps - Nomba used to beat most freeps on this server way back when he was only rank 3 :)
