Guild Wars 2

Meh, Leagues. Go at it.

LF 2v2’s, PM me here or in-game.

Oh man… that fight at Kain Keep in EB a minute ago. We pvdoored outer in about 3 mins and we saw orange swords at Lord’s, we burst in at the same time as EB and capped the keep in 6 minutes . It was a fun cuddle sesh lol <3

Awesome fights, even though it is pretty much a blow out.
- Ebay Commander

I have to agree that! The Fight at Kain Keep in EB was a good fight! We are not going to let it be a simple push over, keep looking forward for kaineng fighting back

Hod nice to see you guys again wish it was on better terms but good luck looking to have some good fights this week don’t give up on yourselves your better than that. You too kaineng but everyone I knew from there transferred.

Thank you for the amazing reset Kain/ HoD

I’m a little sorry for EBay in this match up. Its going to be boring. At least if we want to find fights we can but in what’d already be a one-sided matchup, Kaineng and HoD are going to show up even less because its currently a struggle for Kaineng, HoD and NSP to try and avoid being the ones in silver.

Personally I’m all for the trip the silver anyway, even though it’d be undeniable beatdown after beatdown with a guaranteed third every week but I know a lot of my servermates don’t want that.

Good job ANET.

This is how you should deter players from playing WVW on their resident server and encourage them to transfer to higher tier servers.

I already posted a similar post in the SBI/YB/Kaineng match up 2 weeks ago, and the same kurath these unbalanced matches were your lucky to get out your spawn OR owning everything and having nothing to do needs to be fixed. Last weeks match up was Awesome it was very close and no one got pushed off the map. Some more creative idea’s need to be put into wvw to balance this bad of a matchup if were to be made to play though it for a whole week 2 servers have the ability to team up vs the one over powered 1 defense buffs be applied if the attack zerg is over x amount and stacks with succession or something. Have the developers ever played wvw on this out maned servers vs just sheer over power now with bloodlust to really make it over powered there is no defending even if you have 1 building on all 4 maps vs 100+ people that have nothing else to do but run over you insta build like 10+ trebs and no way to get near them just run and let them have it. And these tournament things coming up soon the horror.

Ebay i hope u guys like to pve because we are not even gonna bother capping thouse wps. happy pve week! ty for the bronze keep crushing us

Decided to hop into WvW tonight but after seeing people say stuff like ‘’idk why we’re trying so hard to cap towers and camps’’, how bad of a position will I be in when leagues roll around? That quote was actually said during WvW tonight and it got me thinking. Just how bad will it be for HoD? Ideally i’d like to transfer before other servers potentially fill up, if of course, that’s the case.

inb4 HoD fanboys tell me the server is better off with people like me gone.

Sucks for the Ebay who just want to have some good fights as well. To the Ebay who queued every single zone for this matchup but were totally absent when Ebay was fighting higher tier opponents, go kitten yourselves.

Well another idea maybe if your down to 1 building on all 4 map’s have that building give you near citadel type buffs for the defending players so we can have SOMETHING to defend and the other server have something to really work at to siege at least i’m trying to come up with idea’s to help the dev’s even if that only building is a tower witch had to use Seigerizer to get and even he can be buffed for this scenario. Everyone can would agree with me right if the server have nothing at all at least let them have one tower/keep they can throw down at that can be lost but they have a really high advantage at defending that witch buff disappears if they cap a second tower ect on any map.

Normally I don’t care about other match threads, but this one interests me for obvious reasons.

Something tells me this match up and the one we have Nsp/gom/ar arent very random.
Seems like it was a measure to try and avoid kain into tanking out of silver. For extra measure hod is also in the mix. So if either one even lift a finger for a good week.. its hello silver league.

Nsp on the other hand got a match where we have to actually push past the low rankings of the other server. While the other 2 kain/hod tank.

I guess my point is. This doesn’t look very random to me.

Lastly and I speak for myself/guild here. I want silver league.. I want the better constant fights. Keep your lolfinisher and blues in the reward chests. I don’t care about any of that trash. Its the fun fights that keep me playing. In bronze.. it will be a bore.

One of three servers (HoD, Kaineng or NSP) will be thrown under the bus, so to speak. They will get decimated every week (EDIT: PPT wise that is, they’ll probably do well on rating and have no shortage of fights to be had and enemies to fend off). The other two will be the prime competitors for top spot in the bronze league. Right now that bus is honking at Kaineng, we’ll see if they can get out of its way.

This happens with every server i guess (probably except T1)

And Devon strikes again! I feel like it should have bee required that KN / HoD / NSP fight on the last week and that would have decided who would go to silver.

Who is going to win at losing? HoD, Kain, or NSP?

On another note.. So… many.. kitten.. EB.. They had more people charging us last night, along with about our size group flanking. So… many… kittens…

donst matter what u guys think hod will be top of bronze league nsp will be bottom of silver its allready done!

That would be NSP Sean. With the system and matchs in place, it does not matter what NSP do or do not do… play or not play this week… they are losing ratings thus keeping kain from closing the difference. Unless HOD scores some massive plays to raise in ranks…

Unkitten th the servers NSP are playing just up and leave WvW…. its game over. Mr Carver WILL get his achievments

This match up is just awful… Can’t even find people to kill.

Sean.8274:

And EBay is going to be able to decide this. if they want they can force NSP into silver by making sure kain doesn’t get any points and HoD gets some points (but not too many to force HoD into silver).

Or they can force HoD into silver by giving HoD a lot more points while crushing Kain.
They can force Kain to stay in silver by not taking Kain’s stuff. p

Kingmaking!

Blame Devon. He wants to keep NSP in bronze.

This. The last couple weeks that we’ve been getting absolutely slammed outside of NA prime time (and even sometimes inside NA prime), most of these people were NOWHERE to be seen. We had our guild groups going, but probably less than 100 people total at prime, maybe 40 outside prime (maximum), with less coming later in the week.

On another note, I know that my guild learned a lot from fighting groups that either outnumbered us or were just better than us (or both). If some of you guys wanted to work on honing your skills and trying new tactics, I’d recommend it. We did the same against Maguuma and some of the other servers with really big blobs (Ark is probably the group that we learned the most from).

Societal problem: People don’t want to work on their skills and tactics. People don’t want challenges. They just want to win, no matter how meaningless that win is.

Oozo.7856:

Fighting 1v3, 10v15, 10v20, 20v40 are challenges. Fighting 20v60 or higher is not a challenge…it is a slaughter. And that is what waits for whichever server, HoD, Kain or NSP, for the next 7 weeks.

Don’t confuse being competitive with winning.

Oh, for the record, I think this weeks matches were rigged.

My comments were directed to Ebay, not your servers. Explain to me why Ebay was getting outmanned in Eternal Battleground during prime time on a weekend night a few weeks ago, but last night we had a queue in every single zone?

I’ll answer that for you. People suck.

The key thing to keep in mind here is the queue. If Ebay was able to queue every zone last night they should have been able to queue every zone against the higher tier opponents. That would remove your 20v60 from the discussion.

Always fun running into your gang, Oozo. Hope it happens at least once this week.

If people do decide to transfer because of the kitten-stomping we’d be glad to have you.
Our raiding group was impressed with the numbers and fighting spirit that HoD fielded when trying to take back their Bay last night.

Props to HoD for open fielding us and FTF for a long while inside the outer walls.

if im correct bronze starts on rank 17 wich is where we are so they wont be in bronze at all

Bronze starts at 16

I feel bad for you Ebay, because as you guys have probably experienced it’s going to be an absolute ghost town out there.

Kaineng and HoD aren’t even gonna show their faces in there in fear of getting put into silver league.

Kaineng you guys better lose harder, or go ahead and begin looking for a server to transfer to.

Hate to say it, but that’s what’s gonna happen.

Also, I do believe transfers are discounted until the beginning of league. I could be wrong, someone correct me if I am.

I have a feeling, Anet did this on purpose to remove all the low pop WvW servers, and consolidate them all into the higher ones. While making revenue off of it.

Just a hunch.

I don’t know about Kaineng because as a former bandwagon server, it’s really hard to judge what’s normal for them, but HoD is actually putting out a fair amount of people. It’s surprising all of us on EBay, really. We sorta expected Kaineng to be putting out people, given that they’re what, like 5 ranks above HoD?

Regardless of their skill or population level, HoD at least still has the balls to keep going. I like ‘em. It’s really surprising they’re not ranked higher ’cause they can really put out the people.

A lot of guilds have left Kain recently, a few more announced today that they are leaving.

Kain is a T7 server at best right now, but we might get stuck in silver leagues to have 20k weekly scores at this rate.

Kain (15) is only 2 ranks above HoD (17) right now.

We like to fight. HoD came a long from where it was. VLK’s motive is to kill and get loot really. Don’t hide in our towers and keeps too much. We could use practice in open field combat.

Loot on legs are everywhere this week! Scoreboard<Fighting

Last week we had to resort to this to entertain ourselves.

What guilds announced? Curious.

Raw, PH, PWN, KA all very recently. Most of these were kain guilds before it became bandwagons. KA was the last pure WvW guild and the smallest of the WvW guilds and we just moved tonight.

That leaves Myth as the largest PvX that does WVW, CHR great group but small and AI also a great group but small. There are a few up and comers like NIIX but its going to take a complete server restructure at this point to get organized again.

^slight clarification, some RaW guild members left, but RaW is still on kaineng as of this moment.

Many of the commanders feel sympathy here, we’re trying to not to be like
Maguuma, spawn kill in every BL and tell your server is dying.
But it seems alot of KA and HoD have been running low numbers because of this matchup, so it’s pretty much a ghost town with the only people who care are trying to take back the keeps, which I like, keep on trying.
Also, Kaineng, you would be better in the bronze league, we are focusing you guys for a reason.

Well well well. Hello once again HoD. Glad to see you all again. Wish this week could be more competitive. Fun playing agsinst my old allies FKB, VLK, Sinesters, any LK still around, Amongst others. Best of luck, keep in touch.

Logged into WvW to see 100,000 Ehm.Bay score to our 19k score, and a giant zerg with Omegas who took down our keep door in 20 seconds… This is NOT fun, and as WvW was the one thing that keeps me around in this game, the more they add, the worse off it gets.

@Lord Sarok, sorry LK is gone, and I am still in my little solo guild. However, no fun vs the Blob that is Ebay.

Reset was some awesome fights. Cudos to everyone, was a fun night.
Sympathetic to Both teams, trust us Ebay has been there. But it shouldn’t stop me playing the game because anet fecked up on there matchups.

Hey instead of being squished every week by enemy red blobs, were the red blob this week. am taking a moment to enjoy it even if it is boring as anything.

ANYWHO….. how about we add some fun in? Say Friday we go to a borderlands, start North and south move clock wise and just level our alts and farm WXP for the start of the league.

I know its boring PvDooring but so is this and at least we would all get some benefits leading into leagues. we could even have some fun open field skirmishes in ruins etc.

Feel free to message me in game if interested, also recruiting more Australasian players and guilds.

does A Net read these posts?

Dear Ebay, your mother was a quaggan, and your father smelled of omnom berries.

I will be hiding in any structure we own, but which one? You’ll never find me. Better start flipping all of our stuff. Until then, I fart in your general direction!

- The guy who doesn’t want to be in silver league

Advice.
HoD instead of sending your 30+ VLK full of killshot warriors, try taking back all your keeps instead of just trolling in Eternal, with those numbers you guys could be doing alot more but instead they just run around laughing at our bodies spamming killshot.
