Official Roster: Honey Badgers
Dear SuckaFish,
You are not the co-captain. Take a seat, please.
Love,
Hemmingway
Congratulations on your promotion Hemm, you're still fat.

Long live the badgers.
He is slimming down from practicing us more than 3 matches a week. If i were you I'd fear fighting them week 7. Since they will likely be in peak condition at that point. Either that or practice us more.
Long live the badgers. |
I'm also not extraordinarily worried about a fight that isn't happening for another 4 weeks, because my team is still committed to improving, but I do appreciate the Badgers actually practicing, and practicing with practice in-mind as opposed to winning.

On a more interesting topic, suckafish once locked onto a target that wasn't on the map.

But if the point of practice is to make you capable of winning official matches...shouldn't you be looking to also win your practice matches? Every single time we play against WARE we play to win. In my mind that's the whole PURPOSE of practicing. That's why I don't understand Shenanigans not wanting to practice with WARE...it would only increase their chances of beating them in officials.
@Hemmfat:
CG on the promotion. I still don't like you.

And yes you should try to win practices which is why internals are so pointless. If you don't feel like you need to win you won't give it your all. When you give it your all and lose you continue to push harder which will get you to a higher skill level and that is the point of practice. If there was a team that was better than Ware we would practice them everyday and it would improve us exponentially. The weaker team in a practice gets the most out of it. If we were ***** we would only practice HB and Fap but instead we practice anyone.
That's why it's so dumb for Shenanigans to not practice against WARE. Doing 6v6 internals getting hit by 4 psi/ems with maybe a rad or something isn't going to help them whatsoever against a legit earth/fire spike

Also yes, one of the reasons we decided to practice with WARE in the first place was we saw them as the best avenue to fight a team that would give us the greatest challenge, even if they beat us more often than not, you don't get better by fighting teams that are worse than you.
That said, I don't think internals are worthless, but if all you are doing is internals then they are. There's some more specific things that teams can work on in internals and pinpoint things people aren't doing so well better.

Oh yeah, practice is definitely to get you to a point where you are capable of winning matches, but it's also a good time to try lineups and other players even though the lineups/players may or may not be succesful. It's less about winning and more about improving, which would also infer that you are trying to win with whatever you are doing in practice matches. Obviously if you aren't playing to win you aren't going to get the most out of practice. I guess I didn't really word that the way I meant it.

@Psycho Jas
Regarding internals, the leaders of shenanigans are being selfish with doing basically only internals and playing worse teams for their own lulzy benefit of not being seen as a bad team. It's a shame that their entire roster miss out on valuable practice and experience because their captains care so much about how a team made up of random players looks on a game.

To be fair they did originally set up practices with Exile and Fap, but Exile droped them for WARE and I droped our practice for other reasons. The only ones they really won't practice against is WARE. It is a bit painfull to play vs WARE which is why the Honey Badgers have huge dills.

Internals are stupid if you're actually doing a match when there are other teams available to play. They're only okay if you're testing a power or attack chain or something. Also, Venatrix dies a lot and cybers mage. That is all.
