This post was originally going to be about something else, but then I played a match of Library of the Runemasters where the other team made a massive comeback, and it was entirely my teams fault.
Now, admittedly, I could of been a more tanky spec so my relic holding lasted longer. But when the whole team is just derping around in the middle of the map and not even trying, my rage is mostly focused at them being stupid.
Let me sum up my simple rules for PvP:
- DO THE OBJECTIVE
- THERE IS NO TWO, DO THE OBJECTIVE
- IN CASES YOU THINK 2 DOESN’T APPLY TO YOU, SEE 1
Now obviously there are times at which “distracting the other team” is an objective. However, considering these rules are focused more towards the lowest common denominator of people, I’m inclined to keep them elegantly simple and focused on not letting them skirt around it with their exceptions.
catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("No, do the fucking objective, no exceptions.");
}
I like to keep it simple, eh? Anyway, to be more specific, let’s talk about Arathi Basin. It’s got some good examples of times to break the rules (the primary one being “fight on the flags” there).
If you’re up 4:1 or so, suddenly if you can solo hold-up a couple of players for 30-60 seconds on a road somewhere? You do that. I won’t rage. I might be like “okay guys, maybe it’s worth not leaving the squishy mage all alone on a point” when everyone decides to run away for some reason, but a roaming player or two being a pain in the other team’s behind? Nah, no problem there.
You should be happy that I tend not to PVP as a healer. Nobody would be deserving of my heals because fuck healing idiots not doing objectives.
