I am going to host an All Blaster and an All Defender ladder tournament next Monday, 3/3 (see sig, and thread in this forum).

Even if you don't enter the tournament, you can likely find some fights with people who get eliminated from the tourney and others who show up to watch between 8:30pm - 10:30pm ET on 3/3.

I hope to see some of you out there for some good fightin'.

I'm not entirely sure I'll be on as early as I need to be for the Defender one, so if anyone wants to just do some regular ladder matches this weekend I'm down, PM @Rikti Commando on live to meet @Teh Rikti on test.

I started this thing way back with little Blaster experience, a semi IO'd, no accolade having Blaster but have since purpled it out and gotten almost all the accolades(damn Illusionist pets)

What if Vego has been afk for like a week and hasn't been there to accept any challenges. Don't punish meh for trying.

rikti any time in particular u have in mind for dueling? figure i might as well go ahead and try for that top spot again.


 

Posted

idc when, I don't really care what I fight and how I get pwnd I just don't wanna get bumped for the sole reason of inactivity


 

Posted

uhm, how bout now? ill go to test if u want a duel. i can try a few toons.


 

Posted

Ok, I might even wanna whip a couple of different ones out, I'll be there in like 10 minutes though (well, assuming there's no damn patch)

Well Ownage helped me with my damage badges this afternoon while simultaneously lowering my self esteem quite a bit.

OMG Its Ownage Defeats Altered Course (Again) (By a lot)

ggs, that dark/cold duel was nice for me at least.


 

Posted

I'll be around tonight for sem fights and this coming weekend will be one of the few I get to spend playing so feel free to gimme a shout.

Im gonna try to rebuild I Trow Fire on Test but I am perfectly happy using my Live version for any fights concerning the ladder matches.


 

Posted

Vego I'm up for a ton of duels this weekend, and keep your no concealment build plz so my Fire/Cold can have fun for once


 

Posted

I still cant get the copy tool to port over my Blaster to test. The 2 builds I have there are missing a lot of stuff. I even deleted all but 2 spots I had on test and nothing had been imported as of about midnight central time last night.

I would gladly fight you on live but then you cant use your dupped purples (noob )

My build on test is missing 5 PBAoE purples, 5 Crushing Impacts and 1 Targeted AoE purple. I hope my live build gets sent over to test today.

As much as I love dueling its pretty much dead on the high end. I respeced my blaster for pvpec into duel phase and did one duel vs Ajax ice/rad and tied him in my first 1on1 with that build. I took my MM into a few DP defiance 2.0 duels and where i was able to hang and win most of them I have gotten pretty much slaughtered by the new blasters. I really think a DP purple blaster trumps 99% of the builds out there if played not well but just ok. The only thing out there that can compete with something like that is my purple stalker which I only pull out vs purp DP blasters. If theres gonna be a duel ladder I think ruling on having 1 phase in your build may change things and make the ladder a lot of fun for many kinds of ATs. We are supposed to be dueling not phasing and hybernoobing 90% of the match are we not? Again if DP is your thing do it i cant stop you but I really think dueling is terrible right now with blaster and recharge changes. Im sure ill get a few cry more please responses from some noobs if so look me up @Maximum or @darkmaster on test and we wont duel well phase and hibernate all for 10 min.

there are a lot of overpowered dueling toons in the game that make dueling pointless. dual phase blasters are just one of the better ones. poison MMs are disgustingly difficult to beat, ice/rad controlers, mind/fire doms, em/regen stalkers, ice/em tanks, etc etc they are all overpowered and make high end dueling pretty pointless. if you really wanted a fun dueling ladder just have a few of the top duelists get together and eliminate some of the overpowered sets that make dueling not fun and go from there. but then at that point it isnt as much competition as it is just playing for fun, which i guess is better anyways.


 

Posted

I agree. It is incredibly hard to find people to duel, and when you do find one, 90% of the time is a purpled dp fire/em blaster.

I'd be game to try Ownage's sugestion of making some kind of "gimp" dueling ladder with none of the top tier builds in it.


 

Posted

Id be there with my AR blaster.


 

Posted

That would be alot of fun. And to be honest a good duelist on a gimp toon would still stand a chance against some nub on a semi fotm toon. Id be up for doing this.
