Stalkers can be countered against like I said to you earlier in AC there really is no reason for there to be a stalker cap - one as low as 2 anyway.
This.

Limiting Sharks when more than 2-3 stalkers are on the team makes much more sense if you have to have a limit. Penalizing the entire league over bad shrakers is retarded.

#4: already broke it down for you before. fort chasing you + mm pets permantently locked on you = harder than tab tab click x 3-4.
Dumb ran MMs everywhere including Eden. Cigal ran MMs on cargo. We ran a fort in almost every match vs cigal and dumb which is half the season so 50% fort ftw. No thermals you got me there o wait thats not gonna change a lack luster healer will always be lack luster. Cold corrs why are you arguing cold corrs seriously this isnt the villain ladder. We ran a cold troller though ftw. Non troller TA why are you arguing this? Maybe give defenders a focused acc or a phase in the epic and well talk. Non emp trollers ummm Tempty Fairy Rice and dont try saying thats bad emps because Rice is the best all around emp in the game he plays like klesk and klesk in my eyes was League MVP. Vex wanted a Emp Psi but didnt wanna re run accolades and lvl it. We also ran a Fire Dev blaster in a match dumb had a Psi Mental. Dont blame a stalker cap on why people dont try other things if you did the numbers you'd know that Psi doesnt even do the most damage thats fire even vs blasters with frozen armor fire does more thats kinda redic, its about the delayed damage. I feel like you are arguing facts that you have made up in your head from the lack of watching matches. Removing stalker cap is not going to create diversity.

I'm not taking a side, but I'm going to throw this out there since some people seem to have a misconception:

Sharks are not an issue because of bad stalkers who are unable to AS. It has NOTHING to do AT ALL with that. Our stalkers can out-stalk any others in the league (I know like 3 fat kids who are going to get angry right now), and we occasionally ran teams centric around sharking. We aren't the only team to do it either, SMD used the Shrak-spike-jump-team to stunning effectiveness.

In these cases, sharking isn't something you do because you are too bad to AS, it's something you do because you plan on it, and because you know that two sharks through an EF deal 1300+ damage.

This is true, Vert is the best ASing stalker in the game imo.

and EF 2 sharks is 1400+ dot damage vs blasters with frozen armor.

the removal of the stalker cap comes hand in hand with the blind-line-up issue. if you're so retarded as to not understand why that is, just stop talking.
No one besides you wants 3 hour matches.

Lol @psypunk attempt i just discredited your whole post so if you cant comprehend what was said, just stop talking.

this is seriously sounding like all those baddie zone kids complaining about stalkers and asking for hide to be off.

stupid assumption.
i said it before and i will say it again, line-up submissions are retarded if you grow a pair and enforce set start times.

lf another argument for line-up submissions besides that of start times.

Hopefully the pointless flamewar stops soon... but throwing some more out there: Lifting or Raising a stalker cap would do nothing to diversify lineups. Lineups would be DIFFERENT from what they are now, but not necessarily diverse.

Throwing even more out there: We plan on running a kin in almost every match, not that it matters at all.

Your argument of it takes more skill to counter pick via match screen is nulled by counter picking based on anticipation. Every match we played in the league I guessed what they would bring and put a counter line up in. And in that regard Id say itd take more skill that way

I imagine it's to prevent counter-picking within the time limit. Have one person disconnect and then be replaced by something that might hinder your opponent's line-up. I'm not sure this is a valid argument as line-ups seem so static these days that people are getting lazier and just bringing "what works" with some notable exceptions. The idea of the submitted line-ups seems to be to save time but generally both line-ups aren't always in simultaneously.

Of course, we get back to the old ladder disputes about whether line-ups should be static anyway, with everyone running their 4 Psi/Em 2 Stalker 2 Emp line-ups or whatever is most efficient at the time. Not sure if that's useful as there is little enough diversity as is.

No, this is seriously sounding like your a fat kid whose mom just told him to get off the computer and take the bottles you piss in and the socks you crap in (so you don't have to leave the computer) to the trash; and she startled you enough to make you drop your twinkie on the new keyboard you sold sperm for 8 months to buy.

The whole point of the way the arena is set up now is to give players the options to changes things to their liking. I've never seen a fat kid rage so much on not having a stalker cap. You remind me of the fat kid in the first Transformers movie who was running with his video camera yelling out "this is awesome" in respect to having no stalker cap.

No, but really, Reaver is exponentially better at CoH and ((bar)) bar management than just about everyone who's posted in this thread.
