I only played 3 games of Warcraft last night.

Thats because, my last 3v3 random team game was almost TWO HOURS long.

After the inital skirmish of petty units, both my allies managed to drop within 30 seconds of eachother. Had the other team worked together as a team, mounted an army, and came after one town at a time - they would have won.

But they decided to be assholes about it, and switched to guerilla warefare. Each player hit a different town. In the cheapest ways. Fully taking advantage of playing against 1 person.

When I took the army to stop an attack, another player would hit where I left, and the other would run. Then they would hit another town, and run before I got back. Over and over, hit and run.

I took out a base and a half, and started defending. So they pulled some of the CHEAPEST shit I tell you.

The undead took all his feinds into one base. When I got there, he burrowed everything. Damnit. Fine. I buy dust of appearnce. One army defeated.

Orange used the flame mage to flame strike everything. When I got there, he'd teleport. He teleported about six times. I grow very angry.

The orc had an army of wyverns. And flew town to town killing gold mines, OVER, and OVER, and OVER. Damnit I hate that. I HATE THAT.

Such bull I tell you! And run away every time I come.

What wins warcraft games?
-Resources
-Units
-A single town hall
-Teamwork (um, okay...)

Me: No base left. Get the sources. Get it now. Get it from three mines. Feed the other two colors.
Pink: Get the units. Get em fast. Three racks at a time.
Purple: Establish the alamo. A heavily, 20 towered base, with a wall of racks, and our last, substantal castle.

Two attacks on the base. With no stunners, starfall won it for me both times.
Killed two players.

More cheap shit. Mage used pehonix to repeatedly kill all workers. Lich death and decayed the base. Orange made steam tanks too. More wyvern attacks. Sigh.

Systematically, I took out about 5 full bases, and 6 expansion mines. Lost a few myself. Started leaving 3 knights at every mine. A decent group of griffons fixed the steam tank problem. Steam tanks slow. At this time, I had about 14k gold between the three players.

Green called me a cheater, for guarding the gold. Sorry, resources win games. After two hours, I saw the victory dialog.

Whats total BS?
-Wyverns attacking mines and running away
-15 spiders burrowed in your own base
-Death and decay from across a peninsula you can't get to.
-Attacking someone and TP away six times
-Steam tanks....
-Losing 2 partners...
-Starfall
-Talking shit because you forgot to mine gold earlier

You know what else is total bs?
-Getting hero rushed by two Shadow Hunters who both learned serpent ward
-A ward that costs 30 mana, has no att cooldown, does 30 damage a hit, and has 150 or so life, with no casting cooldown.
-Raiders can net anything they want. Even heroes. Fiends can only net air.
-KOTG cheezing your hero with entangle, while other heroes beat on you

I think I hate warcraft. Or I hate people on bnet. One of the two. I tell them

I want them to know, I hate them. I hope everything bad in life happens to them, and only them. Nobody else.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must go home, and fill their mama's dish.

ROFL, while those tactics are not what you'd call respectable :p They are smart. No offense, I agree with ya that it's sort of stupid to do something like that against one guy (even if you did control the other two players, you can't be in 3 places at once, like they can) instead of just rushing and overwhelming the loner... But hey :p Gotta admire some of those smart moves. Wyverns to attack workers, classic. The uncatchable Blood Mage was pretty damn smart, and had to cost a bit of money, too. TP's aren't THAT cheap. Um, what was the point to burrowing FIFTEEN Fiends IN YOUR OWN TOWN?! Rofl! I mean, with towers he should have had the advantage, unless I missed something?

Well, hey, at least ya won! ;)

(Now I wanna see that replay, though, sounds fun to watch! :))

If it was the last game he played, he'll still have the default "Last Replay Played" or whatever... You just rename it and it saves :D

Grr, I hate the steam tank thing -_-

One time, me and 2 friends were playing, and the enemy just pooled their resources to ONE PLAYER and then started pumping out steam tanks.

WE were busy making an 'alamo', when the steam tanks hit. Hard. A dozen tanks versus footmen and guard towers ~_~. We were barely able to kill TWO of them before our defenses were overwhelmed. They just went straight in and wiped out our bases. Boom. Boom. Boom. All 3 bases dead. Poof. As we start to rebuild, they follow up with MORE tanks (that go straight for our town halls) and a medium sized army. Workers targeted first. Now no base, no workers - no game -.-.-.-.-.-.

Lol, poor you, Ryoko :p

At least they didn't try and mine the gold mines --- mine as in goblin land mine, that is :>)

Ugh, I hate when someone sets up mines around a gold mine -.-

And by the way, you think THAT'S bad?! Classic strategy I've seen and used before:

Get the Archmage. Get him to level 6. Research Adept and Master level of training for Sorceresses. Cast Invisible onto a Peasent. March him into the center of the enemy base. Have a good 8 Steam Tanks, a small army, and your partner's heroes around ya. Cast Mass TP on the Peasent.

Watch the enemy town burn! :D

This is why I only play 1v1 and 2v2s :)

1) If someone tanks, just block with your own seidge, since they can't attack them.
2) If some ass is being annoying and attack gold mines, build some towers at the rear of your base, and keep archers/ spiders/headhunters/guns there
3) wyvern stupidity, bat riders/guns/fiends usually work really well
4)Night elf annoyingness, build a bunch of tree's and eat your way into an unknown forest, and see if they get impatient enough to leave :banghead:
5)Blood mage- I don't think this is a problem, but I would just entangle and surround with bears, and he'd be gone in 2 seconds. Also would work with Chims.
6) that death and decay crap would be really hard, I guess you would need to zepplin over..... or mass air. It would be ALOT worse if it was earthquake.

Well, I woulda gone crazy before that, and probly left. Oh well.

It would be nice to see that game replay, if you have it. :)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
