Its about ECM, streaks, and cheese, and no knockdowns. (no I didnt say steak and cheese...)


The purity of the game is sullied by these things. Skill? doesnt matter... Tactics? very little...

some would say Jump sniping is all skill. I'm not sure since it seems like a duck shoot from my perspective.

This game takes 100% skill,... have you ever joined a pub FFS?
Trying to get everyone to play like a team is a bloody nightmare ;)

Let cheesers cheese. Once the cheese is gone, they will be worse than everyone.

Yea... I was in the tourney, at least 6 hours of it. All pugging. Quit when I realized I had to play 62 hours straight to have a chance at winning. I work and sleep on weekends...

Heck that tourney wasnt about skill either.


If you think this game is 100% skill, your dumb and blind....

You were not even talking about a Tournament...

But if you dont roll in a 4x or 8x premade,.. this game takes skill... just sayin..

I've never seen you play. I guess that says something about our relative Elo ratings.

I played against you last night Taralitha. You were in a Raven 3L with ECM and streaks.

In fact your premade 8-man team comp was

3 D-DC
2 Catapult K2s
1 Dragon
2 Raven 3L

Now, I don't care what you and your team likes to run, but it's kind of hypocritical to put down other players as cheesy when this is how you run.

Here is what I have to say. Last night I played 25 games about 3-4 were stomps 8-0/etc but the rest were well played skilled games by some good players on both sides no 1 shot kills for me and very little ECM mechs maybe 1 per match. So today I log on to play a few and so far out of 14 games I have been 1 shot killed 4 times every match has had 1-4 ECM mechs and 8 of the 14 have been lop-sided stomps. So I have to say last night was skill today was just garbage. The MM when it does work gives you some good games but when it is not they really suckkkk.PGI please fix the MM/AIMBOTS/AND ECM so its not so powerful.

So, I'm confused. Is there, or is there not steak and cheese to be had?
