"Ok for starters, it was lame, and you know it, you ARE lesser skilled players at BnG"
"There's nothing wrong with being bad at 1 scheme..."

I got confused by these... it's all good though :p

This was not done on purpose... I use big girders like that whenever I can as a habit in 1v1's... I was not even looking at avi's hide... and besides, I would hardly call that covering him, it was way off to the side.  DoH players destroyed the girder naturally, and as far as I'm concerned, it didn't block any potential hits... it didn't affect the game AT ALL.  Avi was still wide open... grasping at straws you guys are.

 

Komo, we did a variety of shots that game; more than just 3 and 4 sec nades... so I don't know what you are expecting from us honestly... We didn't abuse that the league's "allow rules for less skilled BnG'rs" element.  The girder wasn't meant for any diabolical purpose.  IF it was a cow, then it was an accident, but as I explained, it didn't change the outcome of anything

It lasted a while because it was somewhat intense! :D Avi and I talked about the + 50 thing you talk about Monkey... but we agreed it isn't a problem.  It is much better to get 1 crate and attack than to just go for the two crates for 50.  1 crate and attack = 25 + 47 or so in health difference... getting 2 crates would give you + 50, but the other worm would still get a 22 or so hp difference, assuming he can get a crate and attack (when you go for 2 crates, with 13 seconds with 5 sec retreat time, your hide will usually be bad, so it is easy for someone to get crate and attack after).

Agreed (agreeing on people picking hysteria part)! And trust me, when you play w2 roper and understand it, it is so much funner than regular roper.

Thanks for the replay, getting a better picture now... although i must say that i don't really see the decrease of crate luck in this scheme, u still can get some pretty lucky crates and be able to attack + grab a crate frequently while ur opponent gets hard crates. Edit: Of course you always can interspere a turn in which you pick up the left alone crates, seems to me more like a synthetic extension of the game time though. This would imo more even out the difference in skill between 2 players than to profit the better player.... From what i see is that it'll add some tactical elements which the actual roper scheme doesn't have. Gotta get used to the not being able to hide properly with 5 sec retreat time tho also. :(

Summary for me: Looks interesting but i guess i need to play a few games to judge if it's rly superior to the "standard" roper scheme...

chakk, as you see in the game with avi and I, avi got a lot more harder crates than I did.. avi wrote the stats in his last post... yet he still kept the game close and tight due to tactics... you can lure someone by hiding closer to the far crate, and they might try to take it and fail, and then you get 2 crates... there are a lot of tactics you can use...

EDIT: I shall also ask the people of worms this... In the league scheme now, you can get a crate on the far side of the map, impossible to rope even with perfect roping and every rope connection the best, get the crate, and attack. Why, I ask, do you accept a scheme where you have a chance to not be able to attack at all depending on where the game engine decides to put the crate?  How does anyone see this as good?  Stop letting the game engine decide the outcome of the game!

When I was young and I got my first BB gun, I used to load it, cock it, then put the barrel right up to my eyeball and squeeze the trigger, daring myself to see how much pressure I could apply to the trigger before I chickened out!



woah!! holy shit! I cringed just reading that  :o

I have never tried this scheme, and im not the best roper exactly, so for me its the same basically.. BUUUT imo the "crate raped" thing is sometimes a good thing for this game. I mean, if not the best player will win like 90% no matter what. I mean its exciting 2 know that eventho ur a worse player u still have a chance. AAANNND if u got a bad start, u wont lose 100% cause anything can happen. I mean if u get a bad start, u most likely have v small odds getting back in the game with this style.

Anyways, this is NOT a "no ffs dont change roper" at all :)

Btw, i think in normal roper the w2w in sd should be forced each round tho, i really hate that some ppl just wait for the other one 2 fail.. :)

But uber, the lesser player always has a chance to win if the more skilled player does a major f@#! up.. so there is the chance for a lesser player to win... why pad f@#! ups with chances of getting shitty crates on top of it?  This gets rid of the unnecessary luck factor and adds in tactics and real skill

Angus, I watched your replay but you guys were still pretty much playing like it was a normal roper... the point of the scheme is to prevent crate rape luck. When you have a crate that is far away, you shouldn't try to get it, especially if you are leading... it is better to leave the crate and attack your opponent... this way, you get the important hit, the crate luck didn't rape you... if your opponent wants to get the far crate next turn, let him.. but he probably won't be able to attack ;)

seriously, the wind luck argument for ttrr is ridiculous... different winds can help you at different parts of the map IF you fall there... how about just not fall? or take chutes out of rr?

100% agree with avi.  I always thought the roper scheme was ridiculous... crates can really make someone losing get a big break and screw over the better player... this w2 scheme is absolute skill... I've played it many times with avi, and I know a lot of other wormers out there prefer this scheme over the current one because this scheme is tactics in skill.... tactics in roper?? how can this be?? with this scheme it is possible! Like avi said, it is best if you do collect the crates and attack, but if you get a shitty crate, it is more tactical to just hit your opponent and not get the crate... with 13 second turn times, you have to think and decide if you are SKILLED enough to get the crate AND attack.  The time to change is now! please try this scheme and I bet you, if you use your human logic and reason, you will find this scheme to be a better assessment of your roping skills and knowledge.
