I just want to point out that due to the principle you just described a balance of 1v1 and 3v3 becomes rather hard if not impossible. Because which 3v3 game doesn't last until Tier 3?

Re: Enlarge elite mod playerbase

You can try adding the people that you deem worthwhile (non-abusive, friendly) to your friendslist. That way you get 1v1s much faster as most people tend to not open 1v1 lobbies just like that. Teamgames will always be toxic, no matter which game you play 8-)

Re: 2.8 Non-Consensus Thread (Part 2 of 2)

First of all, I lost two tanks because I got doubled and there were two armies, one included a Baneblade and two Leman Russes. I can micro but I can't out-micro all the dmg... Second, I would have never lost a Fire Prism to such a push because a Prism has vastly more range (how many times must I say...

Re: Sniper scouts overhaul

Trust me, when it comes to the Sorc it REALLY matters which Eldar hero he is up against. Don't forget that the LA and Sorc have a low hp pool and that Rangers deal extra dmg vs commander armor. They also deal extra dmg vs heavy infantry which means they shit on synapse creatures as none of them can ...

First of all that has nothing to do with Eldar T3 and everything with IG T3 which being looked into. Next, a Prism alone should never counter a Baneblade.... Also, you pretend that all these units lose their worth once the Baneblade is dead but they will still shit on IG. Eldar habe so much trickery...

Been there, done that. It brought a whole myriad of problems. Why would you ever get Rangers if Dire Avengers can easily detect?!

Re: Eldar late game in 3v3: faster vehicles

With all your teamgame suggestions, please keep in mind that some in this community enjoy balanced 1v1s. If we were to change the Fire Prism (just for lore keks) and redesign it, Eldar balance would become a nightmare again. They almost didn't survive the 1st redesign and it would certainly take ano...
