i find it funny that 10 posts after someone mentions a ladder, all you post-i13 carebears run in begging for rules.
have you guys not learned anything from the last 3 attempts at a league/ladder? the more rules you create, the fewer the turn-out-over-time will be.
banning more than 2 stalkers because of shraks is retarded when you can run forts or TAs that don't have downs syndrome. i know it's cool to rock the 5 blaster team, but in the end it's pretty much the same thing. can we ban snipes then? I mean, 3 tards with snipes can do just as much damage as three morons with shraks. and you get the 3 hour warning in your combat log for them too.
most of the rules in the previous leagues were basically driven by 5 or 6 idiots that just wanted one dimensional games of 4-5 blasters + 1-2 wildcards and 2 emps. forcing people to have to deal with 3+ stalker might add some variety to line-ups to say the least.
also, on power bans: banning soul storm, tk and all those many things is dumb, you guys should actually look back and see why there were power bans in the pre-i13 ladder. vengeance stacking basically meant that there was no way in hell a team was going to win if they got the first kill and 6-stacked-vengeace on the opposition was the result. back then people died about 3 times as fast as they do now, even with all the incarnate trash, and holds+other mez's actually meant your team could be crippled by a few random stuns if there were two dead emps and everyone was dying at a rate that didn't allow for rebuffing.
everyone with a mousepad has access to soul storm, however gay you may think it is. everyone has access to tk. same goes with stalags, shraks, psi lances, shouts, etc, etc. kill-rates are slow enough that one single initial kill isn't going to affect the outcome of a fight where both sides have equal access to whichever of those powers you are raging against.
power bans and line-up bans are retarded. stop crying about what you want team pvp to be like, and see what actually develops when people aren't hindered by 6 retarded caps who think they can actually make this game more fun by removing options (essentially the same dumb **** the devs pulled on us).
