As I raid with 25-30 most of the time, I try my best not to gank roamers, but this time was an exception.

The group I run with usually ganks roaming groups we pass. 9/10 times I just keep running with the commander or just stand away.

Few exceptions based on guild tags/emote spam

You’re in [NOPE], we watched your stream, you guys were calling for backup against a small group you out numbered. Please don’t spread lies on the forums.

because one event totally represents most if not all other events, yes?

Patterns emerge after awhile though.

You’re right, looking back at this thread … I see mags patterns developing.

My official recruitment posting to join mags … I swear it’s me

You mag sure like to generalize.
PiNK running with blobs of 40? I’m not even sure I’ve seen pink run that large in months.
NOPE calling for backup defending a supply camp? Yeah pretty sure most guilds on our server do it…. and you do it too.

(also 40 = blob LOL)

#getgudmag

40 is not blob. It is a small roaming havoc squad. Probably good enough to take bloodlust. It’s OK, we get it

Bloodlust? Nah man, 40 is like… enough for a sentry or a dolyak escort. Gonna need more for bloodlust. Gotta hold THREE points.

A JQ havoc group is 40 dudes and an open field AC.

As mag guilds generally run tagless, we include any pugs in number counts when the other groups are running tags. If you have 15 guildies, but 25 pugs, you’re a 40 man group.

If its 25 pugs and only 15 guildies, the pugs arent part of the guild. They might be a 40 man group, but you cant call 15 PiNK and 25 pugs a PiNK blob, because its not.
and I’m fairly sure 40 isnt a blob either. TC has several guilds that run taggless, just happens that the ones that run with tags are getting the attention. Someone has to lead the militia (and quite frankly, even running taggless they find their way to you)

Maybe his monitor has calibration issues? and he counted you guys, the militia, his own team members, some jq, the dolyaks and the sentry…

Week 1 of leagues we faced PiNK on reset and they were training for the NYC marathon.

Matchup threads in a nutshell

Frigid.6027:

i solo roam and can barely find people willing to fight without odds in their favor. It’s not just jq players who wont fight 1v1.

three [PiNK] thieves were in ruins on jqbl and if i managed to get one to wander off from from the other 2, he/she would cloak and dagger off an animal and run back to his buddies.

Don’t put your servers on some high pedestal because you think you fight unfair odds.

Since this was almost certainly my group, I’m assuming you’re that terrible d/p thief that ran away every time I got you to 15% health.

Dude. We were there to roam together. I was running p/d and which your weapon set directly counters and I destroyed you during each of our three 1v1’s before you stealthed away at which point, yeah, I went back to my friends. I’m not going to stick around waiting for your cool downs to reset if you want more 1v1’s why don’t you try not hard resetting immediately after every single failed opener no wonder you “can barely find people willing to fight without odds in their favor.”

The most you ever did was use your basilisk opener on me a few times but stun breakers are cool and you’d disappear.

Now I’ve wasted even more time on your non-sense. Don’t expect a response to whatever additional garbage you have left to say.

40 is not a blob, its a large zerg. A full map queue sitting on a pin is a blob (~65-70), and is so often so big that it’ll lag you into oblivion. The below image is what a true blob of players looks like (both servers had 50+ in that fight), thats not 35-40 people.

^ what the actual kitten is that wtf wtf wtf

Everyone has their own definition, but 40 is a blob to me as well, though not always. Blob is more about play style and in general there is rarely any difference play wise between a 40 or 80 man group, so most of the time they are both blobs. I am sure there are exceptions, just like you can have a 20 man playing like a blob.

Your T1 is starting to show.

All i see from a lot of posters is poor attempts to denigrate my guilds and our sister guilds on TC. If you think you’re so good, please come out and fight us. We have people rolling out there almost every night, some raids, some roaming, some havocking.

Step up. I want to see what you can do. We won’t be scared away. You rock us? Good on you, bad on us- but we will win in the end. We on TC are hard-headed. TC at its core won’t give up, can you say the same?

does this include gvgs?

It’s more impressive if you’re calling out for gvg’s rather than saying “we’ll still run 40 deep, bring your 15-25 and come at us bros”’

just some #t3tactics for ya pvf

Again this is why I give up solo roaming after 7 p.m. server time because of “Roaming Groups” like these its kindof pointless if you guys hang out in ruins ganking people. Shouldn’t you guys be taking larger groups instead of ganking people in Ruins?

We recognized you from the forums

But in terms of the Ruins, we just fought GF twice there. So it seemed like a good place to be.

Tarkus.4109:

40 is not a blob[…]

40 in T1 is something like a mid-size roaming group. Definitely not a blob.

T1 groups of this size are usually suitable for a wide range of smaller scale activities including:
PVD on paper towers
Flipping camps
Taking Buttlust points (1 at a time)
Engaging solo roamers head on
Chasing down solo roamers
Grub
Tree grub

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!

My sides are busting right now seriously.

What the hell do you expect when you solo roam buttlust on a necro, especially after making yourself a target on the forums

The upside to this matchup is sooo many loot bags. The downside is the only guild from both servers worth a kitten is GF, and they don’t count since they’re a fresh transfer.

WvW is more like this.

And this

I noticed last night a few times where assorted solo non-JQers would fall victim to my guild group while moving from point A to B, such as heading to north camp. To those unfortunate folks that may be on the forums crying tears of 15 v 1 roaming groups keep this in mind… there’s a difference between you being the target of a group deliberately out seeking solo players to kill and that of you being a speed bump on the road to somewhere else.

TC oblation run. ;3

I’ve spent the week reading the BG/SoR/SoS matchup and I must say, it is kinda entertaining when you have nobody to attack or defend in a bunch of QQ posts

aah so tired but exams are done SO YAY.

fun fights everyone. I, a tc-er, was actually ROAMING. WHOA.
whoa.

granted i was not very good at it but y’know. it’s the thought that counts.

Don’t put your servers on some high pedestal because you think you fight unfair odds.

Please dont put your server on that same pedestal this is all I found when Roaming JQ BL during NA Prime time and Ocx times.

1st pic Ocx time
2nd pic NA time (I think Ganking Guild would fit better)

Cheers

Guilds that actually that I’ve seen so far is that [KoS] guy in the second pic and the Guild [Ark] guys I guess I will keep looking for all those other roamer guilds.

Have to agree. I was roaming on Mag on ele and saw the normal few JQ/TC that wouldn’t engage in a 1v1. Finally found a ranger to 1v1 at ruins which turned into a 1v2 and then a 1v3 which was too much for me. Then next I found a fun duel vs a p/d thief and things weren’t looking good for him but it was interrupted by a Mag guardian so he refuged and ran.

Same stories a couple more times so I just went to EB and to k-train/badge train between SM and blue keep. I guess this t1 1vx roaming has to be handed on thief or else in groups of 5-10… zzz

I’ve found that, when facing T1 servers any trickle of 1-2 players is usually a bad sign. Almost no one on these Tier 1 to Tier 1.5 servers run in groups of less than 10, so seeing a few people running around usually means there’s a roaming group or zerg somewhere close by that they’re trying to get back to, or are running ahead of.

This is particularly relevant of players from a few guilds you never see running blobs of less than 40, PiNK and HzH immediately coming to mind.

You do realize that PiNK runs 25-30 on reset (+ pugs if they decide to tag up) and maybe 20-25 during the week, at best, right? The guild used to be able to field 50-60 mans on the reg, but that hasn’t happened in quite a while.

I think he more meant running in a blob vs being an entire guild blob. You just do not find PiNK/HzH players roaming around, so when you do… blob nearby.

Save the nitpicking for lice.

Pfft, details. Fun just is.

GN folks.

I’m guessing you run with commander tags up? Because yeah, 25-30 PiNK I can believe, but there’s always 25+ other random people along for the ride.

I’ve said it before but.. “someone has to lead the militia” — because we have a LOT of militia on TC. More so than on any high tier server, be that a good thing, or a bad thing.
Edit: And moreso than that, TC has lost a number of its stronger taggless groups. What you’re seeing is more open queue space for militia to run with the tagged groups. And even then as I said, the militia find you regardless.

sori we not v good plz teach us the ways of t1

I’m sure I’ve said this before, but mags are perfect for T1.

All they do is blob on one map and run 2-3 guilds together with a karma train, then come on the forums and complain about how everyone else is blobbing.

Isn’t that what every single gold league server does?

maybe the OPM guild can recognize this necro glitching/bugging/hacking (whatever you wanna call it ) and do something about it, she was under the ground and intentionally preventing us from capping the sentry a couple times, and even attacking us, so I know it was intentional what she did, or at least intentional to stay down there and abuse it

never seen or heard of OPM

probably a personal guild

The Ways of Tee Wun

Step 1: Get as many guilds to transfer to your server as you possibly can.

Step 2: Log in.

Step 3: Win.

Nickthemoonwolf.1485:

Or how about you transfer to bronze league and stop being such a whiney kitten about the play style of gold league. Mag really does only belong in silver, huh?

So are you admitting that gold league is just blobbing?

Basically . You’ve faced tier 1 servers, I’d laugh if its still surprising to you.
