Sounds like a fantastic weekend for solo queue work, really. Then again, so does every weekend. 'Least for me, anyways.

If you are freaking out about all the missiles... bring your own ECM, and L2P. Really.

You don't know how powerful ECM is until you abuse it to the nth degree.

There are lurms out there.. but perhaps you should be more concerned with all the comp teams (who aren't lurming, cept the rare lurmtroll-eglar) running ember, SCR, TBR, DWF 4mans.

Just a thought

the real (good) comp teams ain't running DWs. The current Meta is speed. For such a 1337 woulda thunked you'd know that.

I'm already done (6,5 hours), ran a kit fox ecm, 3x AMS 2t ammo, narc 2 tons ammo, CERLL, tag. lots of scores per match.

helping modules: ams overlaod and enchanced narc.
Was too lazy to reequip radar derp, would help too of course.

If they did it's because their bagging it against the comp.

Despite what Puglandians think, Dire Whales are actually kinda really bad in organized play I'd imagine. They're a giant boat anchor for their team, and if you break off to try and maneuver better against the enemy your Whales get isolated and eaten in short order since they're categorically incapable of defending themselves against anyone with more brainpower than a corn cob. They're only really good when their team sets up a conscious defense of them, and at that point the team has ceded too much initiative to the enemy for any ultracomp group to like.

I think you meant irony.

The thing is, there are actually bad players that use ECM and don't know how it functions...

Here's three things they do:

1) They don't know the existence of ECM's counter mode... you'll still see that last ECM mech chasing the opfor's ECM mech... and NEVER use counter mode. That boggles the mind.

2) They walk into the very open with their ECM, then get trashed immediately by LRMs... not paying attention to the UAV that's above them or being tagged (aka, people that don't know they've been spotted). Mind you, this happens with those players w/o ECM too, but those targets are generally hammered far more quickly.

3) They don't know how to cover another teammate if and when they are NARCed (although, part of that falls on the teammate to find his ECM buddies). While "ideally" non-ECM capable teammates should be ones taking the NARC hits instead of the NARC carrier, not everyone recognizes that the ECM cloak blocks out the NARC signal...

That doesn't even begin to express my disdain for the "away from main group" sniping Raven-3L or things like that.

In any case... people don't really know how to maximize ECM use as it is, and then proceed to say "it is fine"...

Whatever...
