Meldash is on the ladder. Now time for me to see what a MM is worth against truly skilled players. *Pops an Orange* TP foe meh now!!!

What the hell. Was hesitant to roll into this as I am not much of a dueler, but I will throw my ring into the hat.

Can't access portal from work, so will have to do it from home tonight.

Cheers!

Right on! Glad to hear it Hobo!


To All:
Please remember that the loser of a ladder match is responsible for posting the loss in the ladder forums.

If you are fighting someone who is new to the ladder, or if you are both new, you might want to say something before the match like "Remember that the loser of the match reports the loss" or something to make sure you're both on the same page.

Even if I'm online, you should report losses on the ladder site as opposed to sending the info to me directly in-game (or simply expecting me to see the results).

Site needs a sponsor. I will do it in a couple weeks if it catches on.

Well, I'll sign up now with my Spines/Regen Scrapper, but he needs a respec badly to get him out of PvE mode, then I need to purchase my O-So expensive IO's. But if some-one is up for a little to no IO match until then I'll gladly join

Now I just need to get my Tank up to 50 :P *26 atm :P*

I had my first couple ladder fights last nite vs Ownage. Got a win and a draw respectively with my 2 toons in the ladder.

Do we report draws? if so, either one can do it right?


 

Posted

Thanks to Ownage for leaving me....

PWNT.

were you winning, I presume?

No. Draws are not reported.

I'm glad to see there were a few ladder matches last night. Keep it up!

We had a very well contested duel. Back and forth with several near deaths. In my greed to get a kill instead of settling for a tie, I stood toe to toe instead of running and healing and got killed with ten seconds left. Great Match though.

Terpman.......you're gonna need to make some kind of rule regarding people that avoid matches simply because they may think that they can't win, and only picking those fights where they feel they have the upper hand.

Today I went to test, advertised on AC that I was in the ladder and looking for other ladder peeps for some matches. I get this Miasmic Dragon ninja/poison MM that gladly says he'll fight my ice/cold, and refuses to fight my rad/psi.

I went and fought his MM with my ice/cold, even though I know its gonna be pretty rough for my single target corr to kill a MM in bodyguard. I have stealth plus stealth IO, and he has no perception. I could play the cheesy game of hide and stay hidden for a draw, but I don't rol lthat way and gave it a shot to the very last second of the fight.

he won 3-0. Fair fight, and no complaint from my part about the loss. What irks me is that he tells me that there is no way that he'll fight my other toon (rad/psi).

Now....if everyone is to do this, then I might as well withdraw from the ladder. I like winning, but I wont sink to that cheesy level of ducking fights in order to maintain a perfect record.

btw...I went to the site and tried to report the loss, but couldn't find where to do so. make sure you credit him with his win.

Interesting, shame you didn't start this awhile ago.

Specific Ranks: It is illegal to refuse matches based on Ladder rank. You may request a specific rank or range when advertising for a challenge, but you may not refuse a valid challenge simply because the challenger is not the rank you are wanting to play.

[/ QUOTE ]

From that i would say that if he is free to fight you he shouldn't be allowed to refuse to fight one of your characters if you challenged him with it. He can't exactly claim that he wasn't free.


EDIT: I just signed up. Is there a global channel or something to find fights?

blizzard spec worked against hans' MM *snicker*


 

Posted

Whirlwind worked against Lord Recluse...six slotted with end mods for critical damage buff.

Had quite a few good matches today. If anything, the ladderis getting more action on test. Hopefully we wont see too many trying to avoid hard fights like that MM.


 

Posted

shoulda asked if he was an SR scrapper with that dodging skillz


 

Posted

How did the /cold vs. /cold fight go? I figured that would have been interesting.


 

Posted

My ice/cold beat Ownage's dark/cold 6-0.


 

Posted

To be fair, that MM was lastol1. He probably won't attempt to fight rads, me, omega, and mags probably made him avoid fighting rads.


 

Posted

Doesn't make it ok. Especially since he is in the top 10.


 

Posted

Exactly........I could play the same game and avoid MM''s and ice tanks with my cold since there isn't much I can do vs those, but that's about as lame as it gets.
