    If there is a next season, it would be nice to have mid-season and end-of-season off weeks, during which rescheduled matches could be played on the regular league night, so that teams can actually plan to be available for a rescheduled match with some advance notice.

    Also, trying to shame your opponents into bringing a lineup you know you can beat with lame forum posts is probably the gaiest strategy attempted in the league yet - a thousand times gaier than an all-taunter draw lineup, and a million times gaier than a totally legit MM lineup.
    do you want a tissue?

    LR is NOT working as intended. Neither is the placate proc. But while the proc is fairly meaningless in a 8v8 situation, LR can be heavily exploited. And since the decisions are made by 8v8 arena PvP'ers, of course everything is going to be focused on what affects 8v8.

    For example, if this was a 1v1 league, where the placate proc would play a HUGE role, the proc would also most likely be banned, just like LR.
    it's ok man, when tokyo/chart starts captain-ing a team, he/she/it can start voting on what's op, broken or not broken.

    'til then, go zone pvp solo.

    leaders are picked/allowed to lead and decide on the rules of the ladder for a reason.

    Epic pool ranged powers for melee ATs (scrappers, tankers) are doing blaster numbers of damage. Again I believe they are using the formula for melee attacks for ranged attacks.

    Placate proc in powers such as Will Domination go off every time. This is broken.

    Spirit Shark for stalkers are OP yet the AT has been limited, not out-right banned.

    Reconstruction on regen scrappers doesn't seem to be significantly impacted by DR like most other AT heals (Not being DRed correctly?)
    ((I could be wrong about reconstruction, however it does seem as if it is being impacted much differently. Regen set for scrappers needs to be looked at.))

    Hold procs are allowing ranged powers to hold longer than actual powers meant to hold.

    Also I don't believe inertial reduction is being affected by TS like similar travel powers. (has this changed recently? Haven't PvPed in a few months.)

    Those are a few things that come across as broken off the top of my head. I can't show numbers because the numbers available to us for PvP are wrong.

    instead of out-right banning a power in a secondary or limiting an entire AT, why not simply limit the amount of ATs that can have that primary, secondary, epic, patron?

    corruptor modifiers are identical to controller modifiers. that is the basis for the comparison between broken lr and not-broken lr.
    working as intended = equal mods = equal effect.
    go ahead an make an argument using that formula. all of what you've said up there is a matter of opinion.

    people are really dumb.
    don't underestimate the stupidity of the average cox player.

    there's ways to slow like in i12.


    an ice/cold troller is a good way to start figuring them out.

    and that's without looking at base resists, even.

    Though this attitude pretty much sums up why SR is probably never going to be good in PvP: people don't want it to be. People hate missing, and SR lives and dies by making them miss, so any time it's working well enough to be taken seriously, people are going to hate it because missing isn't fun.

    I can't really blame them. Missing truly isn't fun. Too bad SR has to pay the price.

    SR as it stands, is in a much worse situation than it was in in PvP 1.0. At least then you could IO out for an impressive Defense total. In PvP 2.0, you're IOing just to get back to 30% Defense. That's bad.
    you're way wrong.

    your numerical argument on DR and defense is just plain stupid. DR also hits to-hit, so "just to get back to 30% Defense" is not lending credibility to your argument.

    the only thing that's gonna consistently pierce through a well-built pvp sr scrapper is a blaster, veats or a stalker with a sizeable acc bonus (nearly impossible to do without gimping your dmg, and recharge).

    "oh barrier, but what about those colds?" have you seen what -def does to a well built sr? nothing. mf nothing.

    you may play an SR scrapper, but i've seen you on it, and you do not really know how to handle it adequately. you do not carry an adequate tray of insps. you assume that because you're a scrapper, you must fite 'til death. yeah, playing an SR scrapper is nothing like playing a regen, but under current zone rules, it's far easier to get by in one than on any other toon heroside with the exception of maybe well built elec tanks and non-downie shield tanks.


    while i do not play my fire/sr brute anymore, the main reason for that is the lack of dmg in fire and the fact that my taunt targets are generally blasters.



    redux: you're bad, sr isn't.

    no.
    the AT limit on stalkers has already limited certain legit line-ups from happening.

    what else is broken that hasn't been banned?
    make case, don't just trow virtue-style empty talk at the boards.

    Just saying.

    agreed.

    kat may have downs syndrome, but the rules allow for that.
    if you have an issue with line-ups, ATs and such, take it up with PVPEC.

    Corrs are easily better than defenders on both sides of the game for a lot of stuff (but it can honestly vary, PvP a fender is better but barely, PvE it depends)
    scrappers are laughable in 8v8s.

    That was a complaint. Pretty dumb and lame. But to do it on a stalker who plays hidden most of the makes it all the worse. Not a cry just a gripe. Its a public for can i do that here? You should i ask you and you life partner black barrier if its ok to speak?







    So if i don't play an at but fight one everyday i cant have an opinion? I'm sorry once again it must be your way or nothing. You still have failed to show me or anyone where i said it needs nerfed or it wasn't working as intended.


    Hope this helps you. Didn't think i needed to waste my time repeating my self to you. Think about what else you want to say to pad your post count. Maybe you should quote this again




    they reply cry or fail or blah blah.


    Your full of it, your worthless to the community, you don't every respond to anything with a normal response, and you do nothing good for the game. You are just a cyber bully someone should tell your teacher. Lol respond if you want but i'm done with you.
    hey, you're crack horror, the baddie that ignored me cause i called him out on empty talk coming from a blaster back when doms were good.

    Stalkers may still be played because they are different form scrappers, Dominators I dont know much about, and Masterminds are pretty useless anyway as players dont fall for the pets things like PvE enemies do.

    Villain builds that rely on not having to fight villain archetypes will become rather useless as everybody and their dog will want to play them on the blue side to be different.

    Red side in general will become pretty much obsolete too imo when you dont need to play the ugly underdeveloped red side to play the villain archetypes anymore:



    Make Warburg level 50 like RV is what I say.
    so.
    much.
    wrong.

    do you pvp at all, dude?
