a few simple facts that ud think ppl would normally know about ctf. first is that no team ever plays 4 def. second is that when attackers die, they spawn in their base. if an nme attacker is unfortunate enough to come into the base after his n8 has killed two attackers, he will meet 4 nmes in the enemy base, who will kill him. its not 4 def.

you stupid fucks!!!

calling "all def lol" though

On the contrary the current EC champs won it by playing 4 def one mine, a 4 attack the next, but mainly by playing all def and relying on the other team getting bored as fuck and adding another attacker, at this stage GoS would switch in an extra attacker and catch them on the hop. Faggot tactics indeed.



If you go 3+ def that means your attackers arent able to take damage of passing attackers or indeed call where the NME is coming in.

i often go def to take whats rightfully mine - the powerups, but there isnt an excuse for a 20 min 4 man def. Spose gos winning that was like greece winning euro04 - complete horseshit that isnt good for the game.

people underrated Greece because they had shite players; Bolton reserves etc. on their first team.

people underestimated GOS because they had never won anything big in CTF before (except for opencup div1 the previous season?) but if you look at their players; the likes of doo and ironbyte both from EYE who were some of the best TDMers around last season, then you will see that they have the makings of a very good team. They were organised and played well - a heavy def weathering the storm when the enemy was attacking, quickly switching to a heavy attack when they saw their moment. This has always been the most effective way to play ctf in my opinion, just I never had the time and was never bothered to get it organised. Criticising GOS for this style of play is much worse than the teams that whined '4 def' at n8z. If you want to have a go at GOS, you might choose to target their use of ninja script that many people frown upon and call faggot tactics. I have never seen it in use and have never used it so I won't comment on that but I certainly wouldn't blame GOS for using good configs. Similarly, GOS cannot be blamed for the path that q3 ctf is taking, like GAA and soccer this season, based around the big strong lads, hard fought defensive play. This path had been set out long before by all the other top clans, just they werent as organised in switching from def to att as GOS.

if you actually watched the the EC, but it was a farce, xYz merc city doing the TDM every game, From a GTV perspective it was awful, although I'm sure if i was in the same position similar faggot tactics would be employed.

Id rather watch someone like thefou and his aAa teamates play or FOE who play Sexy quake.



As for script use, i agree, the amount of fluffed ninja's in that final was unreal.


Also GAA football has turned into pansy diving antics.

If anything its merc tdm teams like xYz who ruined last seasons EC

being heavy on def, then picking your moment to switch over to heavy atk sounds like smart play to me.
