@Cheimera, It's the only map, where he can win vs Assasin...And again, raskal did excally the same on ptrip(hiding, fooling around) so...It's only one map (dm1), there're many other maps in maplist, you know...And you won't get 2x more points for win on dm1 so...
problem is with assasins play is that there will be many who dont wanna participate if that style has become a part of q2 duelling. Atleast i have very hard believeing rasdkal play next season cause of player like this. In his own words "this is why i hate duels" same goes for me and many others, tactical right, assasin knows raskal rapes him on dm1, but still, come on...
@muerte: Thanks for delivering the goods yet AGAIN! You are a one-man, one-stop demo shop.
Watched: + agree with k1ra's comment, SOME of *rl*'s analysis and completely believe Assasin's stated motive -- this IS a very experienced dueler more than familar with how map choices affect the final outcome, i.e., he's NOT playing to win the match; he's playing to win the ROUND.
+ imho some of the spectators' comments were based on PAST behaviors from Assasin, therefore not really relevant to the present match. The most reasonable argument a spec could make is this: "We want some ENTERTAINMENT! Wtf! DANCE monkey!!" + ironically, the lack of exciting duelplay was overwhelmingly counterbalanced by the spectator chatter, which to this NA observer, was gold! Fascinating to read some of the world's best q2 players commentating in different languages!
Stalling at Upper RL(wasn't 'hiding' technically) equals making Rask not care equals Ass taking megaroom equals buying time equals a low frag match equals Ass ultimately winning the round.
if you ask me i would never say that the score will be like this sorry assassin but i thought that raskal will smash you ... i am happy that i was wrong ! keep it up man ! don't let it go !
wtf! if you are 2 frags behind you dont fucking aim for a frag lead and hiding for 10min? especially when ptrip was Assasins map and his best map. And also dont believe that was tactics fomr Assasins side, since he was whining during the game "fucking map" etc.
yeah, and when i noticed i have no chances to win, i just made your game as booring as i could, just like that dm1 was for me :> tactics! ggs anyways, but i wish we can rematch in the future!
veed pathetic comments? if you play like assasin did on dm1. And GO FIGURE raskal lamed on the next map aswell? i would have done the same no doubt after what assasin did against raskal. Turricane hiding, yeh but he was leading, do you see the difference? why do you hide when your loosing?
no dm1 no win. simple as that...+ some pathetic comments by spectors on dm1, pitty these spectors shut their mouth on ptrip when raskal was acting like a pussy... yesteday when turricane was hiding for 7-10? mins on dm1 vs goat same spectors didn't say anything about turri's hiding...pathetic...
Nice games from Assasin! Too bad raskal doesn't (yet I hope) know the ptrip map so well - would've hoped for a better match. The final map was good show too. Congratz for Assasin.
