Zergball vs Bigger Zergball

We can zerg if we want to, we can leave your friends behind. Cause your friends don’t zerg and if they don’t zerg well they’re, no friends of mine.

WAIT WHAT!? We’re doing karaoke!!!!!!!!!!!! Jooooooooin us on BG today! :P <3

The fight for sunny hill is epic right now. Wave after wave of JQ are getting slaughtered. I have never farmed this many people before. Thanks JQ for the fun times!

Defending the keep on EB, from SoR and BG, epic battle after battle. I hope a few of you got the vista, but we tried real hard to prevent that.

I believe the guilds that won’t even try is because they know better and expect to be wiped.
Regarding Foo, it is obvious they didn’t even expected the outcome or they might have not accepted, as soon the ball was already rolling it would have been hard for them to honorably back away from these fights even if they wanted.

I work really early hours (4am est) so on the weekends I get to see FoO in action often and I can say, without reservation, they are more than a zerg. Yes, they have huge numbers. Yes, as any large guild of that size, skill level varies. Same as in any large western guild.

However, when it comes to discipline and organization, sheer points producing potential, I think they kick NA’s butt. When’s the last time you saw a group from NA do sentry duty at a camp? Sure maybe a person will watch a door, maybe player will patrol a yaks route. FoO will set up a 5 man in every camp with a response team ready to be there in 30 seconds. Heck they even have a sentry or two on each yak. Basically, a solo hunter like me can’t do jack but gank the occasional solo on their way to doing something productive and responsible. Basically, they’re an army and we’re just roaming barbarians. Any NA guild could learn a thing or two. Sure, in a wild fight we beat em.. But I think taking a keep from them would be miserable.
What they do, standing bored at an objective, takes pride. They ENJOY it, because it’s winning. And I do believe that pride would also require them to keep coming back, even if they lose, until they do beat us.
I guess we’ll find out Sunday, eh?

Excellent post. Yes this is exactly what happens. I am EU and often play with Foo when I have a day off. The army/barbarian analogy is very apt. I have seen Waha personally escort yaks to get a waypoint in double quick time many times. I would also add that I think this also partly extends to JQ’s other coverage zones as well. I play NA and EU as well often and those timezones have groups that do the same stuff although not always with Foo’s zeal. Alot of these sorts of activities gain no wxp but it gets done anyway.

Right now these tactics are one of the major reasons JQ is winning. Sure we make full use of our stronger timezones and appear to have some better numbers at times as well but we defend and upgrade our stuff better than the other two servers and so hold onto to points for longer. Each timezone tries to hand off something for the previous timezone to work with.

We don’t spend all our time running in megazoids chasing world xp and creating paper that others then exploit. Ok, yes some of us do

Wonder if SoR can pull a win this week

We have too many holes in our timezones where JQ can just wreak havoc over everything. Asian/Oceanic time zone is one of the worst, where massive guilds like FOO walk over the tiny 20 man group we can field, and our one group has to bounce between border lands to hold objectives while JQ can field three of four different zergs, all of which outnumber ours, all at once.

Yea on first reset night after everyone went to bed we were trying to defend Bay with 5 people in the zone as a massive FOO zerg was approaching, haha.

Heh. Your statement above still comes down to numbers advantage. More eyes and ears as scouts on the road thus covering more land area. Extra bodies to run supplies, upgrades etc.

Did you miss last weeks reset night? Up until 4am all 3 servers were neck and neck as every NA player packed the queues for each. Was a less then 2k difference when I went to bed. Woke up the following morning around 11am central to see the lead balloon to 12k JQ advantage, lol. How do you think this happened? From your Asian crew defending and upgrading? haha.

Anyhoo, we had similar advantage when we were on T2 and the games grew stale fast pounding on doors with little resistance so much prefer having the greater number of opponents to go against so keep those bandwagon transfers coming JQ!

The converse is also true. Its a server community that is focussed on winning.

Anyway, I thought your original post was solid and wanted to say so and add some colour from my side. Given your post history and guild affiliation I see little point in going any further with our discussion.

I’m surprised that you seem to think constantly mentioning FOO as you do will somehow lead to a rift in our server. We have a ton of respect for them and are glad to have them as a part of JQ. We also fight are rectums off during our own prime times as well.

Changing the subject, naked drunk night on SOR last night was fun. HUGE fight at Lake versus what looked like the entire TW zerg (with many others tossed in). More and more JQ players started removing the armor getting into the spirit of the guild night. I of course refrained from getting naked as we needed at least a modicum of seriousness on our side. Still, bags galore, huge battles… it was a blast. I couldn’t help but wonder, however, if those on the SoR side could tell our guys were naked or do we render in armor regardless?

Actually if you are an old school daoc’er, which from your posts it seems like you aren’t. You’d know Covenn is trying to get your NA riled up to give him some competition. I don’t think he cares what happens when he’s not on, but I’m pretty certain he’s said it a few posts back that he’s tired of straight farming JQ NA prime.

Nice video, not many can say they beat FOO. FOO is an amazing competitor and props to them for having the courage and challenging some of SoR’s best to open field fights. While that day went to SoR, I’m sure Waha will change up strats and bring it harder the next GvG.

You went to sleep early, but many wvw players who enjoy the game do not sleep on their normal hours on a Friday/Saturday. I personally played until almost 4am (of course not 11 straight hours).

One of the points Kreen makes that probably isn’t happening on SOR is that, on JQ, the players from the different time zones try to help each other out by doing the little things like escorting yaks to upgrade to pass on next time zone, managing the hours to try to log in during the server’s weaker coverage hours, etc.

At least from what I have seen on the forum, SOR does their normal thing during their normal hours and then points the finger at their weaker time zone players and blames them for the reason why they’re losing. I’ve read some SOR players calling their other time zones “disorganized” or trying to kick their other time zone players out of their server just to give them a better chance of winning instead of actually trying to help them out.

TW zerg at peak last night was 22 according to our guild roster. Well our total playing, I am not sure how many we actually had out in WvW. Probably close to all of us I imagine.

I was at that farm session and couldn’t stop laughing at all the random naked people I saw in your hoard. Glad it was a fruitful bag session for everyone…. though the points were only coming in at a trickle. So many kills worth nothing or under 10 points. Guess it was due to all the naked people running back out from spawn, heh.

LoL was fun on SoRBL last night fighting TW. I don’t know if they realized how many naked peeps they were fighting.
I think there were 8 or 9 commander tags at one point. More tags than armor or sense.

It’s a thing we do in FIRE as a guild event to add a little fun for that. There was much laughter on TS. Naked people seem to get more raucous in combat for some reason.

A perfect example right here.
Foo works diligently to provide for their faction, NA rewards them with…. naked night?

Far from desiring a rift in the JQ time zones, I resent that it is only Sunday we have the opportunity to face anything but JQ’s off hours crew. Any shame or rift occurring would a be glaringly internal issue.

I believe the guilds that won’t even try is because they know better and expect to be wiped.
Regarding Foo, it is obvious they didn’t even expected the outcome or they might have not accepted, as soon the ball was already rolling it would have been hard for them to honorably back away from these fights even if they wanted.

I work really early hours (4am est) so on the weekends I get to see FoO in action often and I can say, without reservation, they are more than a zerg. Yes, they have huge numbers. Yes, as any large guild of that size, skill level varies. Same as in any large western guild.

However, when it comes to discipline and organization, sheer points producing potential, I think they kick NA’s butt. When’s the last time you saw a group from NA do sentry duty at a camp? Sure maybe a person will watch a door, maybe player will patrol a yaks route. FoO will set up a 5 man in every camp with a response team ready to be there in 30 seconds. Heck they even have a sentry or two on each yak. Basically, a solo hunter like me can’t do jack but gank the occasional solo on their way to doing something productive and responsible. Basically, they’re an army and we’re just roaming barbarians. Any NA guild could learn a thing or two. Sure, in a wild fight we beat em.. But I think taking a keep from them would be miserable.
What they do, standing bored at an objective, takes pride. They ENJOY it, because it’s winning. And I do believe that pride would also require them to keep coming back, even if they lose, until they do beat us.

Each timezone tries to hand off something for the previous timezone to work with.

Heh. Your statement above still comes down to numbers advantage. More eyes and ears as scouts on the road thus covering more land area. Extra bodies to run supplies, upgrades etc.

Did you miss last weeks reset night? Up until 4am all 3 servers were neck and neck as every NA player packed the queues for each. Was a less then 2k difference when I went to bed. Woke up the following morning around 11am central to see the lead balloon to 12k JQ advantage, lol. How do you think this happened? From your Asian crew defending and upgrading? haha.

Anyhoo, we had similar advantage when we were on T2 and the games grew stale fast pounding on doors with little resistance so much prefer having the greater number of opponents to go against so keep those bandwagon transfers coming JQ!

You went to sleep early, but many wvw players who enjoy the game do not sleep on their normal hours on a Friday/Saturday. I personally played until almost 4am (of course not 11 straight hours).

One of the points Kreen makes that probably isn’t happening on SOR is that, on JQ, the players from the different time zones try to help each other out by doing the little things like escorting yaks to upgrade to pass on next time zone, managing the hours to try to log in during the server’s weaker coverage hours, etc.

At least from what I have seen on the forum, SOR does their normal thing during their normal hours and then points the finger at their weaker time zone players and blames them for the reason why they’re losing. I’ve read some SOR players calling their other time zones “disorganized” or trying to kick their other time zone players out of their server just to give them a better chance of winning instead of actually trying to help them out.

I can assure you our NA do try their best to help our weaker timezones. I dont know where you got that from.

He’s a troll.

The amusing thing is if you ask any of the asian guys even outnumbered and outmanned, how happy they are on SoR.

They will tell you they’ve never been happier on any server, and that’s going against the super zergs of the opposition day in and day out and not winning the tier.

Says a lot about our community in my opinion.

Heh, I just deal with facts. I woke up to what was a close match for the first 10 hours on reset night to a 12k lead once the 4am shift took over. Are you denying this never happened?

Well maybe he is implying that BG and SoR don’t upgrade, siege up, repair, and make sure supply gets in. I think every SoR and BG player knows better though.

I wonder what would happen if FOO took a week off?

Sorry covenn. While we are good at sieging up our keeps and towers, we are terrible at walking supply. It’s usually a few dedicated people on SoR walking Yaks, and usually not enough to prevent Yak ganking by organized havok squads.

A perfect example right here.
Foo works diligently to provide for their faction, NA rewards them with…. naked night?

Hold the phone. Naked night occurs regardless of the score.
