Hi Tutorial, how did your predictions work out?

Denying mercs and default hunting, easy going has the name right at least.

Well you guys asked prem players what I heard from silence..

Unlike some teams we want to play against teams that are on our level and not against teams that get prem players to carry them in officials..

Would you let div 2 pocket soldier merc in div 4 6 vs 6 official? How much fun would that be?

To be fair, there’s a bigger difference between a div 2 and a div 4 player for 6v6 than there is for highlander.

Differences:

1. The individual skill-gap and tactical knowledge is much larger in 6v6 than in 9v9, especially since lower div1 and upper div2 are practically the same (highlander lol).

2. An individual player can do only so much in 9v9, especially as a team-dependent class like heavy. A good pocket soldier can wreck teams in shitty 6v6 but a heavy makes really no difference, especially since he has no idea how the team he mercs for plays.

And just something to think about: You’ll have to face 9 players per team of that caliber you just denied next season. Or did you just go for the medal ;)?

If we would have lost 6-0 we would have won the div anyways.. :) Please get your facts right before saying stuff like that..

So…you’d already won the division even if you lost the match 6-0 yet you still thought denying the opponents a slightly higher skilled merc was reasonable?

You people are weird.

I don’t think it’s fair to call EG default hunters. They only had 1 default win, and it looks genuine.

People shouldn’t ask for higher div mercs, then they won’t ever be able to ‘blame’ the other team for not allowing them. Just find someone on or lower than your level, seriously – it’s not difficult.
