Scam up for GvGs?

Is [scam] that big? I don’t recall them being so during their run with us. Unless they’ve swelled in number since.

1) No, we don’t do GvG.

Thats all you needed to post to let us all know you’re just talk.

kthx

How is this done…..I hope Anet does it based solely on WvW populations

It’s no secret that coverage = wins in WvW

So who wants to help prep for WvW league!!

Y’all excited for WvW LEAGUE!!!!

OMGCAN’TWAIT!!!!!

Hurry up and drop ur glicko

Lenador.1436:

soooooo boring………………

Im crying for you

The 7wks of WvW league actually makes GvG tournament kittening easy.

Once you are locked into tiers you can stack the low pop servers and easily find the fights. I’d also say let’s kitten Anet in the kitten by having a streamed GvG tourney during those 7 weeks of WvW League ^^

Nothing like a highly watched stream of GvG during their shiny new idea

Merendel.7128:

KStudios.2850:

Really Anet? We get a 100k+ curb-stomp from SoS alone this last week. So lets add DB to the mix! Great logic.

You guys had the numbers and skill to have that gap be much much narrower if you guys actualy played for PPT. Ya our ocianics will stomp on you, but our NA is notoriously weak on defence except over reset. Not our fault you guys didnt take advantage of that. Considering your guys defence if you wanted to win you should have taken our hills and held it as long a possible to draw our forces to try and retake and then hit keing while we were too busy to do anything else as we cant really flood more than 1 BL at a time most nights.

The day your NA players are numbered less than 50 combined out of all the BLs is the day you can make this statement.

Boring thread T.T

Last thread was boring until Thursday……now w/ DB in the mix I see this thread going absolutely no where.

:(

O joy SoS again.

So is uhh vH going to run away from a GvG this week too?

I predict good GvGs this week

Ebay isn’t saying the same thing

Everyone stopped caring about what you and the other trashtalkers were saying before the match even began.

Yet you still reply over and over again.

Your attraction to me has been noticed by everyone in this thread…just not into chicks named Chris

O wow Jinks gonna drop another piece of smart.

Register 2 teams an A Team and B Team

omgwtf

Chris.3290:

EhmBay impressed me with how many players are correctly equipped and know how to play your classes well (being matched up with all those SPvPr’s on AR served you well) but I hadn’t been impressed with an entire guild until watching [hawk] last night. I haven’t seen that kind of tight formation in a while. I kept saying on teamspeak to take out the stragglers but the core group from that guild wouldn’t break off for single kills and it fell apart.

Great fights most of the week.

Ebay isn’t saying the same thing

Next time do sum dat research n find out what class I r maining

Hexxed.8023:

I have nothing else to say to fabricate my side of the story and will now /failtroll

Hidden Meaning Uncovered.

I would like to put in my application to become the new GM of vH.

My qualifications are that I can read, count, and maintain honorable tactics during guild representation activities (GvG, FC, etc.)

I also won’t gkick members who disagree with curb tactics and refuse to leave a party with a GF member…..oooo wait you didn’t know that was public knowledge did you

^_^

They’ll dodge the match minutes before fighting and then try to gank you when you are AFK trying to figure out wtf is going on.

btw they failed at ganking GF and ended up getting spiked to hell

Hexxed.8023:

Guild leader of [GH] messaging me that using Spectators and Non-Guildies in a GvG isn’t a violation of GvG. Lmfao……

Stop you’re starting to make your guild look really bad.

1. You dodged the GvG
2. You tried to gank GF and failed
3. You posted a video to defend yourself that incriminated you
4. You’re now trying to cherry pick SS’s to defend yourself
5. You should just forfeit due to how you guys acted

You are the Rachel Jeantel of this incident…incriminated who you are defending

Hexxed.8023:

Video of exactly what happened during this ‘GvG’ as you can see everyone from Ebay’s Spectator hill rushed into vH and an ensuing clusterkitten followed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nMwBhGvURw

Did you just post a video of you failing to gank GF while ordering everyone on the hill to jump in……….

wow

I see SoS’s best GvG can’t fight a real fight…..they tried to bring SoS PvD tactics by attacking GF afkers after they backed out of the GvG.

Unfortunately my friends in GF are doors that bite

Hexxed.8023:

Fox.3562:

GvG Results: 1-0 GF. vH never came back for round 2.

This will be the only post regarding this issue. It was agreed upon last Monday with [GF] for a rated 20v20 GvG. This was even verified by myself an hour beforehand to one of the [GF] guild leaders. On the field 1 minute before the match is supposed to start. I was pm’ed from 3 different [GF]‘s on how they were unable to field 20 against us. So [GF] wanted an unrated 15v15 GvG. We accepted, when the 15v15 GvG started; [GF].[pk], and several other guilds hit us off their spectator hill. Around 34 people hit 15 vH’s during the GvG and claimed it was a victory.

If you need to call other guilds, and all your spectators off your hill to hit us to win an unrated GvG you wanted, so be it. We take it as a compliment you guys need to outnumber us more than 2:1 to win in GvG.

This entire event was recorded as well. With all other guilds and spectators helping them.

Have a good evening.

What’s the name of this “Guild Leader” you spoke with?

nortask.8351:

Real class act at that GvG guys… And a special screw you to the pugs of EB who killed me and my friend welll we were spectating…

Wrong place wrong time.

I’m starting to think vH got upset GF didn’t turn out to be unmanned paper doors….

Heads up this match ain’t happening due to vH backing out last second.

vH shows up w/ 20 ppl to fight vs GF’s 15 claiming it was a 20v20….

http://gw2gvg.com/upcoming.php

As we can all see vH agreed to a 15v15.

Good thing Good Fights likes good fights and we enjoyed slapping your 20

ParaldaWind.4523:

I’m actually really excited for this. Anyone streaming?

Dunno I’ll be watching but I don’t do streaming

So uhh what happened with the no GF vs CNB GvG?

They need to nerf #4 to 5% chance to cause confusion to be more inline w/ other rune sets as well.

The ppl who defend this kitten are absolutely hilarious.

Not NEARLY as funny as the people whining about it.

“Oh no, I can’t faceroll everything in the game anymore!”

Get some condition removal, and maybe try ROLLING a Necro, Ranger, or Engie, so you can see how their skills work, and which to avoid. Watch some youtube vids of Condi tanks “pwning noobs,” and then play defensively with that in mind.

If you think condi is balanced in this game LOL

Not arguing with ppl who want easy cheese for pvp.

WAAAAAAHHH! I just wanna be OP enough… WAAAAAAHHH!!!

But seriously I’m tired of getting killed and really need this to up my kitten

LOL

Dutchares.6084:

You realy want to do this in public?
There are still to many people around that still play for points not the challenging fights. There are even guilds in the top of the gvg ladder that still zerg.. or blobbing up so they have 60+ people… So a lag creating zerg that play for the points not for the fights since an opponent with skill lag cant realy fight back.

Giving the random zerger(karma farmer) also the secrets to becoming a large zerg burster (so also a lag creating mega blob , with hard to kill people) or knowing how to counter this would suck for every guild out there that still like to fight in challenging fights , where they fight larger or strong opponents.. and not to roffelstomp everything creating massive skill lag for the enemy

Missed point of thread….by many miles

Straegen.2938:

Voice chat, heavy toughness, only optimal zerg builds with no upscales, hammer/banner warriors with guardians and a handful of AoE builds. Stack really tight, use AoE interrupts to funnel the enemy zerg and move as one… any zerg fielding greenies, under-equipped 80s or those running non zerg builds will get regularly busted by that crew even if they have a substantial number advantage.

I bust BP zergs in full zerker gear though…..

TheDaiBish.9735:

What would WvW guesting add to the game anyway? How would these outweigh the negatives that it would introduce?

They wouldn’t. Additionally players guesting into WvW would be taking a spot in the cue from someone on their home server.

Maybe you should leave T1.

TheDaiBish.9735:

Jinks.2057:

Im sorry you are failing to see that there are ppl who refuse to only play the game your way.

No. We’re playing it as it was meant to be played. If it was meant to be played in such a way, then you’d be able to WvW guest with the guesting feature that has already been implemented.

As for the dueling part, a feature dedicated to dueling would be a better suggestion, since WvW has a player limit.

Jinks.2057:

WvW isn’t all about playing for PPT….because the jump puzzles and Grub wouldn’t be there.

PPT?

Jinks.2057:

With the way the matchup system works now spying is pointless

How is spying pointless?

You can still see what other teams are doing and read their chat. Not to mention players guesting to another server can do other things, such as waste supply.

What would WvW guesting add to the game anyway? How would these outweigh the negatives that it would introduce?

There would be no additional negatives introduced. Spying happens now and costs the same as my proposal. This just allows everyone to experience different servers to pick the right server for them.

WvW is open world PvP. In other words if I wanted to xfer to your server with 500 of my closest friends just to fill a BL and never leave spawn so you lose the matchup….its our prerogative and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Randomized matchups killed the meaning of winning the matchup. All that is left is having a good time with people who you enjoy and WvW guesting helps that happen

LoreChief.8391:

I’m sorry you fail to see that people like playing a game with set rules in place for a valid reason. What you’re suggesting is not only stupid, but not thought out, and completely irresponsible. WvW isn’t supposed to be a game decided by who wants to spend the most money on useless WvW guesting items. The victor is not to be decided by how best to be an kitten. It is not to be won through simple. kittened. means.

A suggestion that makes sense? I think you do not know what that word means.

No it’s decided by who will pay for the most guild xfers.

24hr guesting will let those stuck on higher tier servers check out lower tier ones. This could lead to a more spread out population.

Sorry everyone paid thier $60 and can play however they choose. If you actually took the time you’d realize the prices that I propose is directly correlated with how much a xfer to a high pop server. Meaning 24hrs is 14% of the time in a week long matchup….14% of the xfer fee is 140 gems.

omfgmindblown

You can even restrict guesting on reset nights…

As an ehmry bay player, when im not busy getting a 200000:1 k/d off SoS while fighting zhaitan I enjoy mocking people because their server has Aussie peak coverage. And if im not doing that well then Im probably just doing what I can to stroke my flimsy ego. Im also probably running away from things because im a GF necro and this WvW enviroment is big and scary for little asurans like myself. It’s not an easy life, or even the best one, but it’s all I got people…

I lol’d.

Maybe we could hang out sometime? Ill bring the box o fun!

scootshoot.6583:

Look up Red Guard GvG videos on youtube, they facerolled a lot of top guilds running 10-0 streaks on several of them.

We are not talking GvG here

We are talking zerg busting

scootshoot.6583:

Jinks.2057:

Let’s talk all things zerg busting shall we.

I want both sides of the coin though. So I zerg bust frequently with my guild. We generally run 15 and take on much larger numbers. Yes we wipe because let’s face it wipes happen.

I wanna get the perspective of ppl who get busted and the feelings you experience.

Finally lets talk about those totally RANDOM encounters where 2 zerg busting groups collide in let’s say 15v15 or 20v20 fights.

/discuss

Although they are retired, perhaps you can find Sacrx of Red Guard and ask their secrets. These bad boys seem to know what they doin. Look at them bust those red blobs with far fewer numbers, they seemed to enjoy hunting for the biggest blobs they can find…..

<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaRGUCXfqfQ

I’d rather get one of those RANDOM encounters with them of the 15v15 nature

1. New orb bonuses need to be able to be turned off like the Commander tag.
-Reason is b/c ppl like to duel and fight on equal terms.

2. New gem shop item that allows 24hr-48hr WvW Guesting
-Reason is b/c it will put cash in your pockets. Price would be 140-280 gems

Anet please implement these ideas. They are easy and I believe could really make a difference in the enjoyment factor of this game.

thx

A group of thieves can zerg bust over time.

Kill fringe players who stray too far from the zerg.

Intercept/kill players on the way too the zerg.

Use supply traps on the zerg.

If a group of 5 thieves work together over teamspeak, over a hour or 2, they can diminish the numbers in a zerg/put off players joining a zerg. After a hour or so ‘messing’ with a zerg, you can usually figure out the commander and start targeting them…

It requires patience and good teamwork but I have seen it done several times.

Unfortunately you have missed the point of this thread.

But I will tell you zerg busting groups that take 2 hrs to bust a zerg is a failure.

Not really, because you are also doing your scouting job, by shouting out the zergs location constantly to everyone on the map. You will no doubt have a zerg on the map too and often will wipe the opposing zerg or be at keeps/towers waiting for them. The times I have seen it done properly, that entire map has ended up your colour with the enemy server players on that map very demoralised by getting no easy loot and dieing all the time.

It works far better then having everyone in the zerg…

Zerg Busting group kills Zerg or breaks them fleeing while killing most of them in 1 engagement.

Harassing the Zerg is Harassing the Zerg.

So..uhm what is up with the Borlis players randomly inviting people who kill them to parties then not saying anything? It’s really kind of weird. :/

Just imagine them breathing heavily into their microphones. Everything will be alright.

Hey – I don’t breathe heavily into my microphone!

Prove it

You’ve already given them a pic to look at, don’t do it! Think of all the chaos that would ensue.

Er, pretty sure I have never done that, lol, unless it’s one of them there FB groups I’m a part of or something. I think you have me confused with someone else :P

But no, I’m not a heavy breather, though I am soft spoken. I do sometimes yell though on TS if I’m commanderizing.

FB groups, you say…

Yeah – a couple of my old guilds had FB groups. NBD

Get back on topic, and cool your jets.

Dat BP NA presence.

We are all still at work. It’s that other thing mommy and daddy do that you don’t understand yet.

Oh, is BP the new mature, adult server now instead of YB?

We have people of all ages playing, but I get the impression that BP does have a higher percentage of older people playing. Part of that comes simply from every conversation not being 14 year boy trash talk, but for other reasons as well.

I have been defending the BL on more than one evening when the topics of conversation have been the kids high school (or even college) graduations, second marriages, vacation properties, bad backs, bad knees and the general annoyance of not being able to punish one’s body like you can in your twenties without paying for it.

I for one would love to see a debate between YB and BP on who is the more mature server! Please commence!

Which would you love to see more, the above or Mags beating a server with a higher ranking? Been what, 4 months now since that has happened?

I couldn’t give two craps about beating a server with higher ranking. I am still playing this game for one reason: fights. The PPT game is old and worn out. It’s you guys that actually care about PPT, not me. Beating a server with higher ranking doesn’t even mean anything except that the other server’s coverage is in flux. So the former. I would love to see the former.

So you will beat your chest all night about beating a server that is a full tier and a combined 9 ranks below its opponents, but you don’t care about PPT.

I think the fact that you can’t actually beat ANYONE who is ranked higher than you leads to your disdain of PPT far more than any love of a good fight. I mean, how good a fight can the doors put up anyway?

Please link to any posts of mine where I’ve chest thumped in this match. I don’t care that we’re beating BP, that is expected to any rational person. It was certain BP people that expected otherwise. The rest of your talk about ranking just indicates that you have little to no understanding about the ranking system. I’m guessing you’re one of the people who thinks you beat Ehmry based on your own merits and not just numbers and coverage. I don’t even like Ehmry, but they are a far, far better server than you are skill-wise.

Ehmry has skill? That’s news to me. Maybe the old Ehmry does but this current one has a bunch of fairweathers and people who complain about tower hugging.

i honestly do not know how to respond to this. A completely ignorant comment made by someone that some ebayers respected. It is the most incorrect statement you could make in regards to the topic. borlis has huge coverage during all time slots and they refuse to leave thier towers w/o outnumbering you 4:1. Do you not realize how many people have transferred to your server? All of our fair weather rally bots left our server about a month ago leaving us out-manned consistently during prime hours.

Go solo roam because playing for PPT sux.

The 1st step is admitting you have a problem….congrats

10v10 and 15v15 is the sweet spot for skilled encounters IMHO. Some teams will refuse to do smaller fights b/c it cexposes skill holes in their guild.

How you can advocate group sizes irrelevant for main game mode? All guilds here are WvW guilds, which means your guild must be capable to show yourselves in WvW. Which means 20-25ppl group. 10 and 15 is havok squad or low-tier server group, but it’s hardly a meaningful WvW force for high-tier battles.

You don’t need to run 20-25ppl in WvW to bust zergs or have group fights. I don’t care what f’n tier you play in. Sometimes it can get that high due to more players on than normal, but 10-15 can take out 4-5x their numbers quite easily. Throw a choke hold or 2 and you see my point.

Also its harder to do and requires more skill to do it with less.

As for GvG it most certainly covers up weak links in your team. The point of GvG is to me is a test of skill, and any factor that detracts from that is detrimental to the reason we all do this. Personally I’d say cap this kitten at 10 players b/c no g’kitten sport on earth runs w/ 20 kittens on a field, but I understand how this game works thus my 15 is ok stance.

Then we’ll cover the point where I said IMHO and you realize PPT/Objective based WvW isn’t something me or my guild takes part in/care about.

Draygo.9473:

Well that’s sad. Ebay certainly fields enough people during the week to play for ppt.

PPT is pointless.

Even in T1 the game is pointless. So what if you win a week in PPT when the other server was sleeping.

I don’t care because when I logged in those PPT players died in droves. Sure take that tower with your zerg….ima kill a kitten ton of you while keeping your zerg running around chasing me.

Im pretty sure my K/D ratio against SoS is like 90:1 overall…and im low balling that

Weekend is over ebay loses steam

So what you’re saying is you guys only win fighting doors that don’t bite…

Im not a PPT player in the slighest but this is some bull kitten right here. Last matchup EB/BP/Yak saw Ebay beat both on reset weekend. It was not until 0600 server time while we were ticking sub 50 PPT did we lose it Monday morning. Yaks and BP were both above 300.

So when numbers are equal you can’t beat ebay even now after our 3rd exodus.

p.s. Ebay has been calling out BP for tower hugging since the 1st week of our long love affair….the only thing that has changed is you have more population yet cant beat us by 100k kitten whoopings we put on you repeatedly. You got the numbers yet you lack skill.
