Yeah, it was a fast paced, twisty game. First 10 minutes is just fun to watch, we got some nice shots there. That last zook was a one of a kind beauty also. 

I admit, got some lucky winds when needed, but Street had a few good ones also. It was hides that was preventing you to use it proper way ;)

Yeah this was a nice game, both of you done some really nice shots.

Well played guys :)



Sensei, at end street hit you with a 4s and it seemed to bother you, why do you hate 4s nades so much man? Especially when street tries many other shots too I don't see the problem lol.

I ain't moaning at you btw just curious to understand why you hate them so much, I used to hate rollers just like you, probably even more so lol, but for the past few years i've realized how feeble they actually are, so i've tried to write a list and see what u think?

4s rollers miss more than 3s impact shots, 5s LG nades, and low winds, they have more chance to bounce on bad pixels and go the wrong way, or they don't drop enough to a deepish hole.

4s rollers tend to do less damage than 3s, 5s LG, 4s FP, zooks.

4s rollers aren't as effective as other shots when pushing, more often than not they dig while doing some damage and leave the player with angle for a return shot.

4s rollers are very easy to avoid, the last hide on the map is always the best because there is nothing to bounce back from behind they will bounce and go to water, also paying attention to the distance between your worm and your opponents worm, you can see how much power/angle they will use 4s nade and you can tell how it will bounce so you can find a hide where this is difficult to achieve, you can even use your 1 girder early in the match to prevent them having a good bounce, there are many ways ;)

If someone is using 4s rollers the chances are they have an open hide because they need the angle shooting out for it, which makes them an easier target than for example Xrayez who take 5s LG angle limit type hides a lot, this makes it easier for you lol.

So it makes me wonder, why is anyone actually bothered about 4s rollers?

Hah, quite a text there Komo. I was pissed for a second, because I know street wouldn't be using that 4s shot if ending was not near. I've had chance earlier to do some rollers on him, but didn't want to. It felt like shadow is thrown on a great game. But I didn't mind that, at all.

Guess people don't like that kinda shots, cause they're screwing the pace of the play, and are very easy to do. No particular reason. I use them too, if game is shitty or opponent's hide too good. But, at that moment, it felt cheap.

Dunno man, lots of thing is said in the game, while fighting.. It's cause of the heat!
