Blackgate WvW Commander
Vanguard of Exiled Mercenaries [MERC] voem.enjin.com
The title sounds like a classified ad :P
If you like small op smashing NOC is the guild for you, 10 NOC is worth 20 of the other servers
My favourite was when I was running into hills south gate, I lagged ever so slightly for 5 seconds I was still running up the stairs to the portal but on everyone elses screen I had ran off the side of the cliff and everyone followed me, half the zerg died that day, I laughed my kitten off, even the most experienced MERCs fell off the cliff that day.
Nice Video Xerxes
Never Die = The Best.
I loved it, great video about ND and our journey together to Blackgate.
ND, MERC, WM nothing can stop us!
PS. I miss Hyun D
Well except for the “HiRE sucks” remarks.
If you scroll up, “MERC Commander Ele bad at pvp” pretty sure thats kitten talking.
That MERC Norn Ele commander is terrible at pvp XD
plz continue with your mad, run back from spawn some more
and yes, Amarathy mentioned your comment on forum I started taking pictures ;P HiRE baddie.
kitten I’m good, been mentioned 4 times in this thread and I haven’t even logged into gw2 yet this marchup week. Lots of Mirin’ going on, yeah that Agg vid slaughtering that Agg soldier pretty accurate.
I think Waha would disagree with you on that.
Never said we we’re outnumbered, I just said the claim that our Oceanic outnumbers SoR’s is false.
Score Update!
After IRON paid us a visit! We have no cookies! Go home!
That’s one good lookin’ Ele
one of these weeks, everyone should take work/school/IRL off (if we don’t already) and play against each other 24/7 with respect to your “timezones”. and see how that plays out. just. for. kicks.
had a day off yesterday
D so tuesday is the new monday for this week. bah, mondays.
That’s just not going to happen as right now a lot of people now have university holidays. Therefore, those useless bums (umm I mean, uni students) will pretty much play whenever as they tend to have work on the weekends and not during the week.
And what do you do that allows you to play 20 hours a day?
A bit of a non-sequitur there, no-one does that.
There is def people that do that trust me someone in my guild has stayed up for 4 days strait, he also has 7 legendaries to show for because of the long hours he plays and someone else in my guild has 11 legendaries. Not sure if she stays up late but assuming she does.
If they find that a fulfilling way to spend life, good on them. I just wasn’t impressed by the personal tone of Jahns post, in that it made an assumption that I am unemployed and play games 20 hours per day. I have 2 jobs, and go to uni full time – since the holidays have started a lot of people including myself have more free time and a few of us chose to play games for whatever reason. Knock off the statements about RL unless you actually have a clue.
Wait a minute we don’t have a clue about RL….where am I, who’s house is this…..ehh whatever im going to sleep in their bed
OI OUT OF MY BED, Meh, I’ll just squeeze in next to the kitten Charr.
Here’s a beautiful pic from one of my guildies. Overall even with the giant enemy zerg it was a fun night (mainly because of jed being a little well lets say “off”).
You got Burt Reynolds, enough said. <3
All bow to the almighty fish god.
BG has 420 PPT during IRON Primetime. So much for BG needs more EU Guilds. Its 20:00 O’clock in Berlin and 19:00 o’clock in London.
Main force running in this “EU” time slot is MERC lol, Tarkus is still tagged up and its 5;30am for him, 3:30am for SEA, I’m heading to bed. For early morning he’s still pretty chipper.
RK and HB just formed up 15mins ago, so you do the math.
What your seeing is a flow on from SEA with everyones keeps other than ours being paper and we’re just flipping it with a float team. Give it another 30mins and the SEA/Oceanic players will be asleep, then you’ll have your “real EU”.
Go HB n RK smash IRON & KiSS.
@Sanghae, why you always so mad?, our guild rep is fine, I think you’ll find MERC commands more respect in T1 than Choo ever has / will.
So what are you trying to explain?
That MERC is Oceanic/SEA guild, soz if that wasn’t clear!
MERC has a tag up minimum 9 hours a day, we don’t know what overtime is, do you get paid for it?
Our Raid time starts 3pm GMT+8/5pm AEST at 12am GMT+8 (SEA) is official end of raid sort of… but is never so, we’re ppt addicts what can we say . We’re a big guild, with many commanders all on different schedules, works out well for us.
Edit: MERC is still recruiting join up guys nightly fun following Charr Daddy, Giant Octopus Mage Girl, Lord Hammerathy (the hair), Papa Veld and his Terets, Batman and the Ravytrain!

All that anger isn’t healthy
Smile
Goodnight and goodluck HB, RK, BT, NA!
Ya burl, we currently do because Tarkus/myself/Ralikh stay up late because we want to give our EU/EST NA something to play with, but is unsustainable and we’re not just going to stop and tell NA to deal with it, we’re nice people so we try to help out as much as possible until things change for the better.

MERC is the only Oceanic force that runs every day on BG.
CA is a new guild, started recently which plays through Oceanic with us, their help is much appreciated.
MERC fields 10-20 during Oceanic and in fact fields our biggest numbers in SEA not Oceanic.
Great Job tonight in EB by WM, holding onto an open SM, QL, Durios – who needs yaks!…
Anets newest patch – No yaks for QL Durios SM XD

kitten ing into an ocean of kitten .
I like when people call BG stacked and the aforementioned “powerhouse” we are but I think people love to make statements without looking up past match ups, yes BG won by 21k this week, because we put in the effort, I went to bed late most nights to ensure this (cause I was sick and off work for a few days).
But if you look at the scores of the last 7 weeks, since SoR received IRON:
Week 19 – 57k win,
Week 20 – 56k win,
Week 21 – 35k win,
Week 22 – 50k win,
Week 24 – 19k win,
Week 25 – 21k loss – BG STACKED
I have a feeling its only going to get worse now with the even bigger EU coverage of SoR, enjoy the PvDoor.
Considering I never command Oceanic, touche?
I live in Western Australia which is GMT +8 which means I finish work at 5pm, home by 6/7 depending on meetings, often 8pm.
I commander SEA not Oceanic, just fyi
Yup…
Poor form SoR… I’d of liked to think you’d think of JQ and want some competition back in this matchup, guess not.
@Offski we do not dominate Oceanic timeslot, MERC logs in with 10-20 during Oceanic and we are instantly fighting full map zergs of HiRE, NYS, AFS and uplate NA guilds. We logged in last week, starting 20/30mins later than 5pm East Coast time and we had lost our garrison twice, don’t give me that bull kitten about us dominating Oceanic, we fight an uphill battle outnumbered every night and push through into Euro time slot because we want our NA to inherit something that you don’t pvdoor it all.
Yeah Resonance there’s also a reason you got unceremoniously kicked from MERC for being full r3t@rd.
Warbanners are definitely in need of a change, people have mentioned zerging in here what is true zerging? Pushing your forces into a keep and being forced to put 15 ppl on each portal to stop warbanner warriors and zerglings from the other server which has as many people as you pouring in from spawn over and over, feeding you bags, but impossible to take keep.
I went for a jog myself and found this elusive creature. No wonder it’s killed for its pelt. it’s hideous! :<
Nice Graphics/resolution, 2001 called they want their PC back.
join! great guys
Because winning fights doesn’t = ppt? Confused.
Winning in the open field is a lot different than sieging keeps full of ACs. Just cause you win a fight, doesn’t always equal ppt.
And its obvious something was done, overtime or not, who really cares. If its truly a coverage thing then grats, doesn’t make sense you don’t tick like this everyday, though.
All jokes aside, some of you people seriously need to go outside or just stop posting. Your attempts of trashing talking are pretty bad, i’m sure theres a place for you on 4chan though.
pot meet kettle
1. Your doing it wrong – MERC, ND, WM wins fights and gets 400 ppt?
2. There is no such thing as overtime in WvW its open 24/7, IRON being hunted by HB and RG and JQ is actually out in force this week true 3 way match up.
3. Pot meet kettle 2.0

Thanks for the fights this evening SoR/JQ in BG bl, the engagements with NYS and ATM were great with a lot of bags for both sides. kitten , it was tight in some of the engagements- i.e. bay being swiss cheese. Thanks for coming out in open field guys.
Here is some footage of the fights we’ve had in the past few days; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiVZPQ8JOZ4&feature=player_embedded
Nice vid Faye
Now Waage/RK I entrust you with my T3 full supply SM goodluck my friend!
Well we all love sieging garrison or bay etc but when there is a map zerg inside with more warbanners then players it can get sadly messy. Not messy as in chaotic but as in only reason you cannot cap is due to warrior using endure pain and popping a War Banner on the lord. Not sure if Anet intended this to be the case in the game, but discuss!
Change 1: War Banners not res lords.
Change 2: Have War Bannered Lord not reset the ticker, have the tick reset periodically approx every 5 minutes maybe.
Change 2: Create an ICD on Warbanners like Righteous indignation and have Lords not be able to be chain res’d with Banners.
Change 3: Make Lords like players and he can only rally 5-10 times before he goes down for good (obviously has a respawn timer like other guards).
Change 4: Have the War Banner only restore 50% of the Lord’s health points meaning its more than just one person who has to res him.
Just a few suggestions, would like to hear what Anet / other players think.

I cannot figure out BG. Yesterday at this time they were tallying over 300pts. Today right now they are below 200. SoR was low one yesterday but now are leading at this time. No discrediting anything, just seem strange I guess. Just curious I guess
We spent too much of SEA tonight on JQ BL defending our WP’d Hills, allowing SoR to backcap BG BL fighting the good fight against ATM. Though I think you missed our 385 ppt oceanic
(edited by MagiKarp.8201)
Flipped T3 SM as I took the above
There is no quartermaster, only AC!
Thanks for the 10pm GMT +8 timed 2v1, had to sacrifice paper bay to JQ, but I’m glad I’m logging off with Hills still T2, Dia from Never Die is a legend and I love him.
Great work BG, Never Die and MERC held strong here to hoping our EU can hold onto it!
Clearly SoR’s success has nothing to do with transfers, all core guilds,
HiRe, Tysm, Ocx, AFS, TW, IRON, SAHP etc SBI, Desolation, IoJ, SoS
At the moment regardless of how you flip the coin, SoR has Late EU/NA EST advantage which allows them to push in BG weak zone, full cap things then plant 80mans on the walls, not that hard to do. We did that to JQ back on SoS, wasn’t because JQ SEA wasn’t beastly it was because we could prepare zones for FoO logging in and we knew how to defend them.
Why do you always groan about coverage here? You’re either gloating or you’re having a cry. Never the salutes or anything. Just wah wah wah after wah wah wah. You’re so kitten rude. lol. And you weren’t even a good commander in SoS. lol. Leave all the talking to Tarkus plox.
And who are you?
Other than a forum warrior, think you need to learn the definition of the word Irony.

If you like being 2v1’d all night, join BG.
If you like being opportunists and taking points while the other two servers fight, join SoR.
If you like having free reign because of the two above reasons during SEA join JQ.
Good push hire et al
I recommend you look at FA, TC, DB or Maguuma. Just keep in mind whatever you pick, you will almost certainly be PvDooring with 400 transfers in the Oceanic/SEA/Euro timezone.
Not in Tier 1 my friend.
BG has queues till about 5 hours after reset on average and then from there on week days and Sundays our queue times are usually quite minimal often only being BG BL and EB which are queued. There is always a map open during the week days, today we were outmanned in Eternal Battlegrounds (Sunday night), queues vary but unless you are a reset only guild you won’t have many issues with queues or a shortage of fights against the massive Sanctum of Rall NA on Blackgate.
Anywho if you are interested don’t hesitate to contact myself or someone from Blackgate on the forums regarding more information.
SoR and JQ can say all they want about being superior to Blackgate, I ain’t even mad, we saw what happens to JQ when SoR isn’t with them (or did you JQ guys forget about last week so quickly?)
I (like most people on JQ) was far to busy killing everything labeled “Dragonbrand” to even notice there was a third server there last week. Are you telling me it was BG? And that BG scored more points than we did? Heh, who would of known… certainly not anyone on JQ. But hey, keep farming those PUGs in EB and feeling awesome, cause JQ doesnt usually have any orgainized guilds there. But should you want an actual challenge, feel free to go to a real map, like JQ BL, where you own nothing.
I also remember this “real map” being blue for the entirety of last week.
Doubt JQ is 5 they still can field numbers, SEA theres quite a lot of yas :P
Well, I for one am glad this matchup is over.
Hope to not see any of you for a long time.
I think what did it was when I actually had someone from BG jump off the cliff and kill himself instead of trying to fight me 1v1… pretty much set the tone for the tier.
Maybe he was just a pacifist and couldn’t stomach the thought of killing you, but knew you’d try kill him so he took the noble route.
I hope we have many more matchups! DB’s SEA puts up much more of a fight than SoR’s ever has, TFV fields massive numbers is fun to fight them.
Thing is, sophtspoken has received the most attention in this matchup thread. He is seeking attention, and because he’s putting down other servers, he is trolling. Best to ignore trolls, ya know.
I noticed some time ago that he conveniently ignores all the posts asking about whether he’s actually from DB.
So yeah,
Best to just move along.Yes I’m from DB why the hell would a bring up all the things BG has been doing to DB other wise? seriously how dumb can you get? You guys can call me a troll to make you feel better idc the fact still remains BG is having to pull some really childish moves to get things from an overwhelmed and massively outmanned t2 server, and that’s just sad
Without us for a week and already missing us, this just cannot work, Sanctum of Rall you are too possessive we need to talk.
I feel they should have cloud effects around them, like Monkey Magic style.
Sorry if this feels this way, but what BG is doing isn’t about crushing you, its about maintaining momentum and morale, MERC is showing up every night as usual even though we know we do not have to, this is to not get sloppy and keep our A game waiting for the return of the Sanctum of Rallverywhere.
I’m not sure of everyone elses experience of this gametype but I love it…
Frobolicious (my asura Guardian) has a lot of fun :P
His record is 19 kills 0 deaths, people talk about zerging etc lol thats what they put skill 5 in for. If you keep moving and are constantly on the run you don’t die, figure out where the heals are and use them like clockwork. Also DODGE
I’m 22/25 win/game ratio and loving it (2 losses due to awayfromkey team yes… :P) its a game of mechanics/teamwork, see an enemy chasing your friend, make them pay for it, vice versa don’t over dedicate to a kill, stay alive.

Inquiring minds asked about TFV?
They are a good bunch of players
Hehe I think MERC might take DBBL tonight to give you guys some good fights I hope to see you TFV there
, full capping JQ BL is fun n all but I think we can let someone else do that :P
Lol @ that wipe of ours, we were so confused, we didn’t think DB had any forces on the map at all we walked in went “Where are they?” “Meh lets bash down this other gate to help ATM out”
Nek Minit. xD
