Re: Average Joe's tournament?
I think its fun and beneficial to a player (or athletes etc) to be able to compete at a level that is similar to theirs. Its exhilarating for players who will enter an MRT with no hope of doing well never mind winning to compete with a chance to succeed. And it is in that state of mind where you can...

Re: On massive tilt: what do people find helps them?
This is very helpful, hadn't thought of replays and retail as a means of helping this (retail therapy lololololol).Cheers gaiizzze Since you raised it, the reason I'm here is because of having zero answer for Apo and PC. Then Torpid gave me some good suggestions with PC, which was good, but at this ...

On massive tilt: what do people find helps them?
So i'm in a massive tilt phase atm... I think its because I've been *trying* to develop my game to quickly and my brain can't handle all the re-writing and new info. Dropping basics all over the place line a n00b. I've definitely experienced this effect in my poker 'career'. Kinda just looking for a...

Re: Grenade Launchers for Imperial Guardsmen/Storm Troopers?
It sounded like you were using the two examples to show how many counters to set-up teams IG has... Really Incendiary and normal shells is just one.
And Incendiary is tier 2 anyway by which time you have way more set up counters.

That doesn't mean your position on intermediate tournaments has to be the same GIVEN beginner ones exist as it would be were they to not.

Yeh! Obviously the dread with the highest sneaky rating is going to win this one while the stronger ones are going at it.~

I dunno Torpid... I get your point but beginner - intermediate - advanced seems like a natural way to group participants in, well, anything, and I think its pretty tried and tested. Don't get me wrong I was probably going to try to participate in the next big tournaments. But there is a large no-man...

Re: the Chaos is OP myth
Going back to those numbers it is reasonable to infer that the higher the win % the more favourably (to that race) unbalanced the race is. Lictor has like 8% popularity and then like 70% win... that doesn't account for enough practise as Lictor to give that high a win percentage assuming balance. Th...

Re: the Chaos is OP myth
I think someone should let Marneus Calgar know that Techmarines are winning more battles than force commanders. It is far from 100% useless... not that I am saying it is useful. And you say Chaos Lord is played more so more wins... The opposite can be said about nids in the faction popularity section.

On the reinforcement vs tankiness, try to think of it as paying req to heal a unit in the field. Is it THAT attractive a characteristic?

Re: GK Dread Melee.
Having read the thread, I disagree with the need for any change. Following on from what I and Torpid said a melee dread in a GK army plays very differently to one in an SM army so cost differences are to be expected. In addition, I find myself utilising the GK dread in the different ways it is meant...

Re: Slaughter is way overperforming
@Cheekie I think the point is its unbalanced due to the worsip of the PC, not the PC himself. Worship being integral to the play of all 3 chaos heroes. Apo on the other hand is uniquely a designated healer, something which can't be said about the PC.

Re: GK Dread Melee.
Can't add too much specifically, but its important to note that, hypothetically, in order to facilitate balance the same unit on two different rosters could (and in most cases should) cost different amounts. Also, the GK melee dread has an additional ability, one that is very good at that. Getting t...

Re: the Chaos is OP myth
The game is balanced around 1v1, everything I say is regarding 1v1 unless I start with 'In team games' usually :P. In 3v3 chaos certainly are not OP. The only annoying this is having a phobos out and just sit on a contested VP end game. 3v3 OP award goes to Nids and Orks. 2v2 however I think Chaos a...

Re: the Chaos is OP myth
On the phobos, well, Its anti-melee ability seems pretty cheap to me. It kinda becomes nigh-invulnerable to a race like gk because, assuming paladins are the hardest AV choice, you do so much damage to them at range with the lascannons, then use the ability, then see you next engagement paladins.

Re: Thoughts on the lord general
After deliberation, I find myself agreeing with the OP's sentiment. Maining IG, I can't actually think of an MU where I would take him over Inq or LC (in 1v1). I think the issue is more internal balance in that case.
