To all the flames on primal datacenter...

[RiceisNice]

Unfortunately for the flames they are the weakest of the 3 gc on primal data center (although they do have really good premades pop up once in a blue moon) and it seems alot of em there have a mentality of "oh we not gonna win anyway so lets just fk up one of the other GCs".

This is what really bugs me with the implementation of seize and the requirements for the achievements for both old and new (first place or bust). No matter how well your plays are, you are never in a good position to win if you're always being hounded by that GC who gives up and ultimately gets to decide who gets first and second.

Of course it's very well possible to come back from a 400 point deficit and still win, but at that point you're dependent on the other two GCs to slip up and give you a chance to do so. And well, hope you don't have a bunch of people who'd just settle for second because it honestly means moot (doesn't even give that much more currency or exp).

As the one that normally makes the calls, I hit the team that either has one or two node depending on what's the most opportunistic. If we and mael only have one nodes on the beach and close together, while flames is sitting with two on caves, I'm sure as hell not mobilizing to hit flames because I know that the maelstrom are thinking the same thing as me; Flames is too far away and their defenses will be extremely cluttered that we'd never win unless their alliance was divided (which would mean they were defending two points, which requires two GCs). Really it's a prisoner's delimina then and you're honestly not in a good position when that happens.
