Teams were premade, i figured if i wanted to win i gotta do something extra special...

I gathered up some stalker friends, and came up with a plan

Yes, we used an all stalker team. And for some reason it was the most fun I've had at a pvpec event ever....was really funny and I was laughing for alot of the matches

I imagine kat is going to restrict the number of same AT's per team next round haha

Nah i hope she doesnt that would just be dumb, restrictions would make events less fun , i mean the more that ppl have fun in i13+ is a good thing at least we dont lose more ppl but u know its good ppl went and had fun and again gg.

Apparently our all stalker team, while fun for us, made the event not as pleasant to everyone else. Who figured? Really though things like that are fun in moderation

Restrictions are there for a reason, some are needed, while some aren't. On just a 3v3 I honestly don't think AT restrictions are necessary. All stalker teams aren't overpowered, although it greatly depends on what you're fighting. Any team with enough +perc to hit the cap could easily wreck a stalker team if they knew what they were doing.

All stalker team with a bunch of people that like never play stalkers. That's cool. How many ASes did you guys set up?

That would only really work if you had a VEAT on the team. Even at the perc cap, you can only see a stalker at 10 feet. Which is pointless when all they do is pop 20 reds and do sharks from hide.

I popped 20 reds and sharked someone once. Unfortunetly it happened to be a really bad freedom player, Who was in rest, on a blaster, the result was an absolute riot.

It wasn't that they had an all stalker team. It was the tactic of hiding the entire match, getting one very quick kill then hiding the rest of the match. Essentially almost every match was 9.5 minutes of jumping around doing nothing and then less than a half of a minute of attacking. I thought tank vs. tank fights were boring, doesn't even compare.

That being said it was a very legal and effective tactic.

As far as future events, yes some events will have limitations in place. Not so much as to restrict, but more so to offer some variety and skill challenges. In fact expect my very next event to be something crazy like all blasters, no inspirations, no travel powers, lvl 32 FFA and the office map or something equally crazy.

On a side note, being I don't pvp anymore maybe one of you guys can clarify something for me. Had one of the other teams, after seeing the tactic the stalker team was using stocked up on yellows and capped themselves on + perception...using ranged attacks they should have been able to get a kill or two yes? I was totally baffled why none of the teams did that, so am I totally out of tune with pvp anymore or were they just not doing what was needed to counter the tactic?

I really don't think yellows would have been all that necessary but they couldn't have hurt. I do decent vs stalkers in zones with just tactics these days so YMMV I suppose.

Someone with phase could have been the bait to lure the stalkers into wasting BU+AS and that would have allowed the other team a chance to spike one before they went into hide again. That tactic, however, wouldn't have prevented a triple BU+Shark from hide.

Wow that's actually a REALLY smart tactic...I would pretty much guarentee that we would have AS'd him, but the problem there is that AS doesn't break hide. Maybe if someone did that on Enigma's team he could have dropped sleet on the decoy.

Right I know AS doesn't break hide. I was figuring someone on one of the teams would have something to flush you guys out or at least try to figure out a way once they noticed it was an all stalker team. I'm not doubting your team I'm just curious why some kind of trap like that wasn't set.

Well even if they had stocked up on yellows, you only would be able to see a stalker at 10 feet if they're at the perception cap. What also makes this difficult is that a stalker can simply placate someone or phase quickly. For all you know, the stalkers all did sharks then phased afterwords to keep themselves from dying. That's what I would've done(if I was a skillless noob that doesn't even try using AS).

For your information, I did try to AS. Until I found out they were perception capped and I almost died, had 2 hp left by the time I had used my heal, 2 greens, and managed to get into hibernate.

Listen Alpha, I know your the one who is always talking about true stalkers know how to get AS, and when I said something about a 8 man team of stalkers using spirit shark I think you said something about skillless noobs there too, but I had fun and so did my team so...w/e
